(Although it was never specified in FF: Incarcerated, this RP takes place in NYC. For me, at least. I'll probably leave anyway.)

Callum turned off the TV and looked at his clock. It was 2:00 A.M. He couldn't sleep ever since he learned a powerful game villain was inside him. Vanitas. Ever since Vanitas possessed him (If he did, maybe he was in there since birth, so gained influence) Callum had been a jerk. He didn't have any friends now. I hate you, Vanitas! He heard a scoff. Really? Do you? Callum summoned his keyblade. "I won't let this take me over. Vanitas, you won't win." His void gear looked ominous. Too ominous.

Seichi stumbled foward when he got kicked. "I don't know you." he said to Vanitas. When he heard the name Xemnas, Sora took over and summoned Ultima.

"Just arrest me...I have no need to do buisness with you. I'm a regular guy being treated as a criminal, put me in jail, and that's all I want," he said looking down.

"Well now we have a good group. If things keep going like this, we will have too many people here." Alex said smiling.

"Fine, you want to be a prisoner? Well then, as the future sister of a government leader, you are under arrest. Anything you say or do we be used against you in the chourt of law." Aria J said putting handcuffs on Scott.

"Ok, thanks. Government leader? You'd run against that Charles White? The mayor of Chicago? He's running for president. I could make a call, and you'd beat him in no time. I think that's what I'll use my one call for ya," Scott said laughing. His hands now cuffed he looked back at where his car used to be. "Oh, you just let a kidnapping murderer go...but I'll tell you about him later...while I'm being questioned," he said with a smile.

Arina passed by a resturant. She just remembered how hungry she was. 'Where are you Sechi, please tell me somehow..." Arina felt so lost, she couldnt find anyone.

(Sorry for the ridiculously long dialogue between Mariah and Keilani, everyone. I just really prefer taking a little extra time to develop relationships between characters, instead of just saying, "Oh, they met, and BAM, they're friends!" Yeah, I'm a perfectionist. Anyway, in the part between Mariah and Keilani, you can just skip everything that comes after the first paragraph. )

 

 

Keilani smiled widely after Troy called her his girlfriend, and waved at Tudi and the new guy, Tyler, when they arrived. She then brought out the pillows and blankets and set them down in a big pile. “Feel free to claim your stuff whenever you’re ready, everyone,” she said. She took a pillow and blanket for herself and started to set them up, then addressed the woman beside her, oblivious to the tired look on her face. “I don’t believe we’ve met,” she said. “I’m Keilani.”

 

Mariah smiled. “Mariah. Nice to meet you, Keilani.”

 

“So who’s your Inhabiter?” Keilani asked. “Mine’s Naminé.”

 

“I’m Inhabited by Tifa,” Mariah replied. She was charmed by this girl’s bubbly personality, but also struck by how innocent she looked. She didn’t seem like a fighter. Of course, almost no one was a fighter before gaining an Inhabiter, but it was different with this girl. This piqued Mariah’s curiosity. “So, Naminé...I’m not familiar with her. Have you and she been in a lot of battles?”

 

Keilani paused, and a chagrined look crossed her face. “Well, no. I’ve only done a little bit of healing. Naminé’s never really fought before. But I do have a Keyblade! It would be nice if I could use it more, though. I only just discovered it when...” she trailed off, thinking of Troy, then lowered her voice. “When Scott and Ethan were holding me hostage. And so, I haven’t had much practice with it.”

 

Mariah’s eyes widened. “Scott? As in the assassin who wants to take us all out?”

 

“Yeah, Inhabited by Marluxia. He had the audacity to kidnap me in broad daylight and use me as bait to trap the other Inhabiters, but when they all came, the coward bounced. Do you know him?”

 

“You could say that...” Mariah said. He had nearly killed her, for one thing, and there was also the fact that he bore so many similarities to Cain. She shook her head. “Weren’t you scared?”

 

“A little...I mean, it’s not every day a couple random guys force you into their car while you’re on a date. I was mostly scared for Troy, though. Scott threatened to kill him several times...” Keilani’s voice had dropped to a whisper, and she could feel the emotion rising up in her, but she quickly pushed it back down.

 

Mariah glanced at the boy she guessed was Troy and nodded, understanding. “Yeah...I know how you feel...”

 

“Someone’s threatened a person you love?”

 

Mariah nodded. “He’s being held captive right now. I’m so worried about him.” She started to tear up once more.

 

Keilani put her hand on Mariah’s shoulder. “Mariah...I’m so sorry,” she said.

 

Mariah blinked the tears back and smiled sadly. “I’m sure it’ll be okay, though. We’ll go and save him tomorrow. After tonight, I won’t rest until he’s safe, I can promise you that.” With that, she took her own pillow and blanket from the pile and made a bed beside Keilani’s, wanting to distract herself.

 

Keilani turned back to her own bedding, and as she straightened it, said, “You know, Mariah, you’re pretty cool.”

 

Mariah didn’t look up from her work, but laughed a little at the very direct compliment. “Thanks. So are you.”

 

------------------------------------------------------------

 

Rebekah stepped over to Felix. “Mind if I help?” she asked. “I like cooking, and it would be nice to finally do something relatively normal today,” she said with a chuckle.

 

------------------------------------------------------------

 

When she, Ethan, and James got the the spa resort, Alexis got out of the car, looked at Ethan, and said, “Lead the way. I’m curious as to these strings you’re planning to pull. You know I’m not a big fan of surprises.”

Ethan just smiled at Lexi. "Don't trust your own brother? I'm hurt!" Ethan walked directly up to the counter. Behind it was a tall, leggy brunette with glasses, smokey eyes, and a secret taste for bad boys. Perfect. He flashed his most charming smile, coating his words with Hades' touch. "Hey there sweetheart, do you think that I might be able to get two suites? Nothing but the best, mind you. I want my sister and my new friend to have a room all to themselves, while I'll be staying separately." She blushed some, though she didn't know why, and regretfully said "I'm sorry, it seems that all of our top tier suites are reserved for the time being. He then winked at her, leaned in and whispered into her ear, "Maybe you could come back later and join me? Screw the rules, eh? Live a little!" Her blush deepened and she nervously pushed her glasses back into place on her face. "O-okay," she stammered. "Here are your room keys," she spoke as she returned to him. She handed him the keys and along with them left a slip of paper. Upon unfolding it Ethan read that it had her number on it. He smirked and winked once again. "Thanks doll." Turning back to James and Alexis, he tossed James the keys. Ethan didn't even care if Alexis was made a little jealous by his actions or not. He was just glad that for the first time since he had seen her again, Ethan had plenty to distract him from Lexi. It had been totally crashing his vibes, but now he was back, bitches.

-Elie and Tudi

"Oh, my name's Elie, inhabited by Aerith." Elie responded to Troy, befoer her attention being snapped back to Tudi and, a new guy, Tyler. She waved at them. Tudi rushed over to all of them. "Here's your birds, I hope you know what to do with them fresh off the forest floor. Because I certainly don't." Tudi said to all of the "cooks" and handed them the birds. She then went back over to Tyler. "Come on, let's sit down, and lemme catch ya up on what is going on with the group." She invited him to sit with her under a tree.

"Well it's nice to meet you Elie," said Troy with a slight smile as he went to cleaning off the bird with a knife from the supplies he had grabbed.

 

Tyler was a bit taken aback by it all. To think that each one of them was like him, and that they all had inhabiters. Why were they inhabited? Why were they all here? Did he hear that some of them had been kidnapped? Did that mean that there were "bad guys" as well? What could he do to help? When would the food be ready? Granted, some of the questions were more pressing than others, but all the same Tyler listened attentively as Tudi began to tell him about what had been happening. Every once in a while he felt his focus drifting away as he looked into her eyes, but repeatedly snapped himself back to attention, putting renewed focus into listening to what she had to say. It was difficult enough for him as it was due to his ADHD.

(OOC: Please note that the views, actions, and words of the character are just that, and do not reflect me in any way, aside from the writing style I suppose.)

 

(Understood. Same goes for my characters, especially Lexi. )

 

 

Alexis watched the interaction between Ethan and the receptionist with an unchanged expression. Cute, she thought. She felt what most people would call a tinge of jealousy. But to her, as she had taken the J-word out of her vocabulary years ago, she was just suffering a bruised ego. Oh, she had noticed how Ethan still lusted after her, as all men in their right mind did. That was the whole reason she had taken on this career--she enjoyed the power she had over these disgusting, pathetic creatures, able to bend their weak wills in seconds with her charm and beauty. Not to mention that once in a while, she would have a fantastic night with a particularly skilled man. Of course, there was the rare occasion when the person she had to deal with was a woman instead, but that was a different, and mostly very awkward, story. Mostly.

 

Now, she felt as if she had lost her power over Ethan, and she didn’t like it. Well, not that it mattered all that much, except that he was one of those whom she especially enjoyed the nights with. Anyway, as soon as the two of them could be alone again, he would be wrapped around her finger once more. She would make sure of that.

 

She turned to James and smiled. “Come on, let’s go!” As she started pulling him along, she looked back at Ethan with the same happy expression and said, “Thanks, big brother. Always having my best interests in mind. You haven’t changed a bit.”

 

------------------------------------------------------------

 

Keilani watched with admiration and fascination how Troy handled the bird that Tudi had given him. Who would’ve guessed he knew how to prepare one? She soon had to look away, though, as it started to make her squeamish. Since she didn’t want to be near the gutted birds, she decided it would be best not to offer to help with the cooking. Tudi and Tyler looked like they didn’t want a third person with them, and Mariah looked distracted, so she brought out Naminé’s sketchbook and started drawing everyone at the campsite. It would make a cool picture.

 

Mariah felt like she needed to help with preparing the food. Besides, if she did, it would be ready that much faster, and it would keep her awake long enough to get some food in her system. She walked over to Troy and said, “Hey, can I help you? I know a thing or two about cleaning and gutting animals. It should speed up the process at any rate, since we’ve got multiple birds here. Oh, and I'm Mariah, in case you didn't know my name already.”

Edited May 10, 201213 yr by Always

(OOC: Lol, actually Tudi was the one who came in with the birds. And Tyler. I feel like we might ought to wrap this camping session up and get on to the next day here pretty quick, but not before everyone's ready of course.)

 

"Hey there Mariah, no, can't say as I know you too well, but I'm glad for the opportunity to change that!" Troy responded with a warm smile. He'd heard a little from Rebekah and gathered the rest of what he knew from the others and from observation. She had been left about a year ago by the one person she cared for most after already being forced to witness the death of comrades and being forced to kill another boy she loved. She had been a wreck ever since, but when James miraculously came back to life and found her, there seemed to be new hope in her life. Joy decided at that moment to try to come back into Mariah's life, but was too afraid and repeatedly hid away, avoiding confronting her and the fact that he had left in the first place. When both of them were finally standing before her and she had to make a decision, her choice made one of their most powerful allies run off and her love was taken from her. Troy was just astounded that she could still be standing after all she had been through. She was strong, and that made Troy think about and glance back at his small, fragile, unique, and beautiful snowflake of a girlfriend as she drew in her sketchpad. Thinking about her made him smile, but he couldn't bear the thought of her having to endure even a fraction of what Mariah had been through. Snapping back to reality he handed Mariah one of the birds and continued his easy speech. "So you're Rebekah's cousin right? Since she's a bit like my big sister due to the whole Ven and Aqua thing, I guess that makes you kind of like my cousin, too. Don't worry, tomorrow we'll be able to save Joy and get him back. I'll do everything I can."

 

Ethan smirked at Lexi. "Of course lil sis! What else are big brothers for?" he responded before heading back to his room and setting up some candles and music. If he was right, and Ethan was confident that he was, then this sort of thing would be just the ticket for that receptionist girl. A lot of girls fell for all of that frilly crap.

(Dang it! I hate it when I get characters' names mixed up! *edited*

I agree that we need to wrap this up. Haha poor Number XV must be really bored waiting for us.)

 

 

“Thanks. That really means a lot to me,” Mariah said. “It’s nice to officially meet you, ‘cuz.’” She smiled back at Troy, intrigued and honored that he had said she was like his cousin. On the inside, though, she was sad. This boy, who couldn’t be much older than sixteen, was getting dragged into what would probably be a huge battle. What made it worse was that she couldn’t help but feel like she was the one dragging Troy and everyone else into this, out of her eagerness to save Joy. Of course, Joy was her first priority, but would she be able to stand it if more of her friends got hurt or died along the way? If some of these kids lost their lives?

 

Mariah cast the thoughts aside, focused on the bird in her hands, and started talking to Troy, asking where he was from and how he had learned to prepare a bird, and making general conversation with him. He was a very charming boy with an eye-catching smile, and she could see why Keilani liked him so much.

"Again, not a government anything. I am only a simple mutant, one that knows her ropes. You can even nickname me, Black Widow, cause I will do much more than any other mutant like me, oh wait there is no other mutant like me. Now lets get you out of here to never harm a good person again." Aria J said and escort him to a nearby police car.

James followed after her, smiling at her. "So, where are we going?" he asked, holding her hand.

“To our suite, silly!” Alexis replied. “And what’s with me guiding you around all over the place? I think you should take the lead this time.” She smiled suggestively and winked. “Ah, I can't wait! Ethan just handed you the keys, right? What’s the number on them?”

Arina kept walking, she felt some familiar presence. 'Kairi who is that.'

'One of them...RIKU, i think it is Riku! But there are others, they arent familiar to me.'

 

Alex was trying to get himself warmed up, he was still sneezing...curse this rain. He was suprised Troy knew hoe to prepare a bird. He has never prepared one in his life. But hey he knew different plants and herbs...thank you Jessica for making him do that. 'Whats up Alex, I can tell your feeling down.'

'Nothing Roxas.'

'Home sick.'

'Not for my parents, my old friends. '

'That would make me feel homesick, once i found out Axel was my best friend i felt pretty bad too.'

' But hey he is here, mine are...500 miles or more away.'

Alex sat up and looked at the rain.

Keilani looked up from her sketchbook when her drawing was finished and saw Troy, her wonderful boyfriend, glancing at her, and she grinned at him, but had to look away quickly to avoid the sight of the bird. It was then that she noticed Alex...the boy from school who had ignored her the other day. He was sneezing and looked cold. She sighed as Naminé’s compassion for Roxas overtook her and closed her sketchbook, grabbed one of the blankets, and crawled over to Alex, staying under the lean-to as she did so. “Here,” she said, offering him the blanket. “Do you want me to try and cure you? I’m not sure if magic will work for something like a cold, but it’s worth a shot.” She braced herself for him not to respond again, and if that ended up being the case, she would just throw the blanket on him and go off to draw something else. But if not, she would have someone to talk to again, which would be nice, since everyone else was occupied with their own stuff.

 

 

(Just so we're all clear, I'm NOT trying to start another firetrucking love triangle here--Keilani's interaction with Alex is purely friend-zoned. This RP already has an abundance of love triangles, and I'm so done with them. )

Edited May 10, 201213 yr by Always

Reilly quickly summoned his Ethereal blades. "Vanitas!" Vanitas summoned his keyblade. "Look, it's three on one. Are you willing to take that risk? Joy can't help you. No one can."

(I know, i think there are a lot of love triangles here)

 

Alex noticed Keilani, and smiled. "Thanks Keilani, you can try it might help...hey what are ya drawing. I am no artist, but my art teacher showed me some stuff." Alex scooted over to Keilani to look at her sketch pad.

Keilani brought out her Keyblade and used Esuna on Alex. After that, she opened her sketchbook again and showed him the picture. “Oh, I'm just drawing everybody,” she said. “I thought the campsite and all the people here would make a nice picture. I've also drawn Troy in this book.” She flipped the page to show him the picture of Troy. “What do you think? And be honest with me!” She was happy that Alex was talking to her now, and that maybe they had something in common, as he had mentioned an art teacher.

Edited May 10, 201213 yr by Always

"Hmmmm...' Alex took a look at the picture, he felt better since Keilani did Ensuna on him. "Well it is way better than what i would be able to do that is for sure. I think it is a master piece. After all this is your talent isnt it?"

The food had come to their table, and now Aria, Noel, and Victoria were all eating. "I wonder whatever happened to Aria." Victoria said looking around. "Well, it doesnt matter. That is just her style. Its just great that..........whats that?" Aria asked as she saw a teen about age 17 with a Aria shirt on and a girl with a Noel shirt on. "Oh no, no here too." Noel said. Aria and Noel tried to cover their faces, but the two kids saw them anyway. "I CANT BELIEVE IT! ITS ARIA AND NOEL!" the dude said. "WE ARE YOUR BIGGEST FANS EVER! Our first kiss was at one of your concerts." the girl said. People came rush over to them. Some asked for autographs, others asked for them to sing. Aria had enough and stood up. "You want us to sing, fine then. Come on, Noel, lets give these people what they want." Aria said and got on top of a table. "Okay." Noel said. "Okay. WHO WANTS TO HEAR A NEW COVER SONG FOR OUR ABLUM?" Noel asked and the people cheered with excitment. Victoria tried to leave through all these people. Aria and Noel started to sing:
