You have been lied to.

The world is not as you think it is, and you have no idea what lies beyond the curtain.

 

Do not worry, I shall guide you. I shall show you the truth. I shall show you the way.

 

Awake now, my new friends, and let me introduce you you to the City.

 

I am Q, and I will be your guide.

 

This is where the lies end.

 

This is The City.

 

 

 

The words ring in your mind as you come to. Everything is white. Everything is so white. White skyscrapers surround you and close you in. There is no shadow, only the dim gray outline of the buildings and streets to keep the blank whiteness from consuming all you see. There is no sun, and there is no sky. The words you heard... it was a woman's voice that spoke them. She sounded... compassionate, but far off. So far off. The streets around you extend in a criss-cross in every direction. This seems to be setup like any city you've ever known, but somehow it seems so very different. After the blinding light of all the pure white, though, you notice them. The people around you. They have color to them; their clothes, their hair, their eyes. It is a welcome sight. They seem to all be coming to now as well...

 

In one spot, under the overhang of what may have been a sandwich shop were this any normal city, in the district known as Haven, six people awoke: Reverie Oscuro (Hazimie), Wlynn Cellus (Firo Procheniezio), Liath Smith (Captain Arrowguns), Jason Carmichael (Javelin), Sora Takagi (Oathkeeper) and Kristy Yauser (Ultimus Grid)

 

Elsewhere, next to one of the tallest towers in the area, in the district known as Crest were five more people who had just regained consciousness: Laciann Pascual (Tatsumi), Alysa Mors (Mine), Asher Sterban (Neko-chan), Aro (Silver Kuroi) and Tristan Cane (Joemahon) .

 

Finally, the third group, awakening in an intersection flanked on all four corners by great towering building, numbering six, also heard the voice and woke to the sight of the City. They were Ailder Rosewal (Riki), Natasa Devin (The Narrator), Maxwell Crad (Scrapmaster), Yuki (Kingdomhearts), Jordan Locke (rikunobodyxiii), and Le Chef (Dave).

 

As they all awoke, the voice came once more.

 

Learn your new comrades names and come to know them as people.

 

Very soon the City shall fight against you for the first of many times....

 

And with that... let this RP begin.

Edited September 13, 201510 yr by MDSVeritas

After making his way to the center of the room, Nathan almost seemed to be tackled to the ground by Nora's sudden actions. Feeling his body wrack with pain, Nathan checked back on his wounds from his fight with the doll and found he was now bleeding again, not to mention the wounds he had just received from the blades slicing across his shoulders and arms. "Damn it... Looks like I hadn't actually healed after all, I'd simply diverted my power to main a steady blood flow instinctively." Nathan stared at his hand bewildered as his body fell to one knee. "My power... It's developed to a point that it will guard me when I cannot do it myself, even if only slightly." Taking a few larger breaths and holding an arm over his chest wounds, he looked back at the girl who was currently unwilling to let go of his other arm. "In order to defeat Tristan, I'm going to need power... Power that I can't uncover in this city alone. If I want to win, I'll need to gain some 'leverage'." Nathan looked over at Nora as he noticed the blades closing in. "Alright... My name is Nathan, but I can't go into any specifics right now. If you can somehow stop me from bleeding, I can get us through this room and then I'll tell you all I know about where we are. As you saw, I can control gravity... But my strength isn't exactly one hundred percent right now." Nathan looked over the girl and noticed the hand brush she was carrying. "Hey, maybe that brush has something to do with your 'power'. Draw something, maybe some bandages. You never know what might happen." Nathan sat down on the floor, noticing the space they had to use growing smaller and smaller. "As soon as I patch up these wounds, I'll blast us a way through these obstacles and directly to that power source, even if it drains me of all I got left. I need that power. I need it!" Nathan held a bloody hand to his head, an image of a young man with blonde hair appearing before him. "I'll get that power and show them that they were all wrong about me!"

Nora blinked a few times. "...paint a bandage on you...am I hearing this right?" Nora asked, needing confirmation that she wasn't hearing things out of place. But then again everything in here since the moment she woke up was out of place. The kid was controlling gravity and things were flying around the room by an unknown and unseen force, also a voice spoke to her telepathically. The fact that she was sane while all of this happened, was surprising. She looked down at the brush in her hand. "But I'd need white-" And before she could finish, the paint changed colors. By this point she was not surprised. "...give it here." Nora grabbed onto his arm, holding it out as she started to paint. She wiped the surging blood with her free hand and quickly passed white over the wounds. Swiftly she painted white around the arm, and then as the paint changed black, she painted thin outlines. The moment the outlines connected, Nora let go, and before their eyes the paint glowed before turning itself into its intended object, bandages, wrapped tightly around his wounds. "They...became real!"

"Shut up you phantom. You're not real, don't even pretend like you are." Alysa said coldly, stabbing her blade straight through his eye. The other end came out the other side. Alysa turned away, and sent a pulse of creation through her blade. The explosion of new matter inside her father's head caused the entire thing to, for lack of more polite terms, explode into a rain of blood and brains. Alysa looked back to the horde of oncoming opponents. She whipped her epee back around, the blood blowing off the blade. "Which one of you miserable beings wants to be next?" She said, her tone frustrated and full of an unquenched fury.

Asher Group

 

The explosion practically evaporated the dolls as they charged Asher. His fury seemed to be channeled into the very attack itself. Finally Asher was left all along in the city streets with remnants of dolls strewn about and scorch marks scarring the pure white pavement.

 

"So..." it was Q. "I'm guessing something has happened. You seem... of a different temperment since you first entered the Unknown event, did something troubling occur?"

 

Reverie and Liath Group

 

In the remnants of the Marauder pod, with the final beast laid to rest Liath and Reverie were able to take a moment to rest. The silence of their victory was soon interrupted though, as power seemed to course from the Marauders into Reverie, and Q's voice joined the activity as well.

 

"I see you've emerged victorious against the Marauders, congratulations. Reverie, for finishing the final Marauder you have been able to absorb some of the power they've brought here, allowing you to update your powers. Take some time to rest up, you two, and once you're good to go and familiar with your new abilities, don't be afraid to continue to exploration."

 

((Hazimie, you now have the opportunity to choose how you wish to upgrade you powers, I'll just have to double-check your choice for balance))

 

Jason, Kristy, Sora, Yuki, Maxwell Group

 

The Marauder, as it was so close to striking Sora and Kristy, was suddenly struck by Yuki's attack, flying backward and then exploding, leaving the only threat as the remaining Marauder who had just been disarmed, who now charged at Jason and viciously threw a punch towards him...

 

There was still a fight to finish. The party was fighting this battle in the center of an urban intersection, flanked by several huge blank billboards and a few smaller shops with one or two skyscrapers sitting near the road nearby.

 

Nathan and Nora Group

 

As Nora worked her healing paints the blades continued to compress in further on the pair...

 

Time to act fast.

 

Laciann, Alysa, Aro Group

 

The figure of Alysa's father exploded in blood, showering the party, while the crowd continue to move inward. Now they seemed... dangerous. Their movements grew erratic and they began to shamble angrily en masse towards the party...

 

The Misfits (Jay and the people who were sacrificed)

 

The Lava-fish shot backward into the distant sky, and the party now had time to rest and make it to the white door. Q's voice chimed in once the situation had calmed.

 

"Congratulations. You made use of your powers and worked with your teammates to survive a tense encounter. You are ready to re-enter the City. Take a moment to rest, and then head through the door."

 

On all sides the magma instantly cooled into hard volcanic rock, stabilizing the area and further easing the surrounding conditions. The white door lay just ahead... waiting to be opened.

Edited March 12, 201510 yr by MDSVeritas

Jumping out of the lava literally right before it hardened Tristan heard Q speak but quickly ignored what she was saying and ran over to Ailder and Wlynn "Hey you two okay" quickly examining Ailder Tristan could see he had done quiet a bit of damage to himself with that last attack to knock the large fish away "Idiot why the hell would you push yourself so far you should know your limits for crying out loud (dammit maybe it was better i sacrificed myself over letting any of the others go who knows how this could of ended if one of them had come down here especially if it had been him)"

No sooner had Le Chef decided that being in a team was a good plan and that they shouldn't split up anytime soon did the team decided to ignore the good plan and split up very soon. Watching both Yuki and Maxwell fly off, Le Chef stood alone with Natasha. "Well, then," coughed the cook, "it seems our two young friends have left us holding the bag. But, perhaps, have answered my question. If they are to go forth and explore out there, perhaps we might apply ourselves and explore in here. I confess, the curiosity of Pandora strikes me, and the prospect of this so-called "trial" intrigues me." Smiling, he shrugged nonchalantly. "The worst that could happen is that we die, which is hardly any worse than standing awkwardly in the street, no?" Not to mention that the revelation of Yuki's power-up presented a carrot on a stick to follow. Greater dangers to be faced, certainly, but perhaps greater rewards would make it worth the while.

 

Hoping that Natasha shared the sentiment, if only because it would mean having another body handy in case something came up, Le Chef headed west towards the Trial...

Asher Group

 

The explosion practically evaporated the dolls as they charged Asher. His fury seemed to be channeled into the very attack itself. Finally Asher was left all along in the city streets with remnants of dolls strewn about and scorch marks scarring the pure white pavement.

 

"So..." it was Q. "I'm guessing something has happened. You seem... of a different temperment since you first entered the Unknown event, did something troubling occur?"

((Hazimie, you now have the opportunity to choose how you wish to upgrade you powers, I'll just have to double-check your choice for balance))

Jumping out of the lava literally right before it hardened Tristan heard Q speak but quickly ignored what she was saying and ran over to Ailder and Wlynn "Hey you two okay" quickly examining Ailder Tristan could see he had done quiet a bit of damage to himself with that last attack to knock the large fish away "Idiot why the hell would you push yourself so far you should know your limits for crying out loud (dammit maybe it was better i sacrificed myself over letting any of the others go who knows how this could of ended if one of them had come down here especially if it had been him)"

"B-because I refuse to accept I have limits... Heh... Limits are the end, I will only ever get stronger...!" Ailder said, with a harsh choke, he looked at his arm. "By chance, can any of you do any kind of healing...?" He grinned, trying to not show his terrible level of pain. His entire right arm was shattered with that, and his arm was practically useless by muscle standards as well. his arm rolled into itself, like a fruit roll up. His muscles ached, but he was glad he won the fight.

"Aro....Aronia...."

 

Aro's breath caught in her throat as they crept near. She stepped back, her eyes going wide and her pulse suddenly spiking and racing, as her family approached her. Her brother and sister, covered in blood and the wounds they had suffered many years ago, shambled towards her.

Aro began to shake uncontrollably as her breath came in and out in rapid gasps.

"N-no...why...why're you guys here...?"

 

"Why..?" Her brother rasped, his face nearly torn apart, and his left eye nothing but an empty hole, "Why did you..."

 

"No!" Aro shouted, immediately pointing at her brother and firing a lazer that cleanly eviscerated the living dead's head.

 

"You've done it again..." Her sister than whispered, and she too received a blast to the face. As her sister fell to the ground, and died for good, she made it clear: "...You killed us again."

 

"I-I didn't....!" Aro choked out, grasping at the hem of her dress, "You guys! Just...just leave me alone!" 

"Yes Q, something has happened." Asher muttered, lighting one of his cigarettes and sliding it into his mouth.

"You're using us, aren't you?" He questioned.

"You can't lie to me, Q."

Watching Yuki and Maxwell using their powers, Kristy goes:  "Whoa!  You guys are something else."  She took a step back when the Marauder that attacked Sora exploded.  Turning around, she sees the last one attacking Jason.  "Officer, watch out!"  Kristy fired a beam at the arm the Marauder itself was trying to punch with, hoping it'd miss the officer.  But she wasn't sure or confident that would work.

Edited March 13, 201510 yr by Ultimus Grid

Yuki looked at Kristy as she fired a punch beam with her power. He was just done healing the fox girl. "Okay. She should wake up in a bit. You're pretty strong!"

The hospital smelled like sadness. It was horrible, horrible. She never liked coming, but it was her mother...she had to come...but no...she slept restlessly, by her...until the monitor. it told if she was alive, if she remained breathing...but now it screamed bloody murder. Sora couldn't even focus fully, before she was dragged to the nurses' station as a crash cart was brought in. It was the third time she had entered cardiac arrest....the third time Sora had felt this heart wrenching sorrow.

 

As the yell of CLEAR rang through the hospital...

 

Sora sat up, screaming...then fell back, clutching her side, still screaming. tears streamed down her face. She then saw Yuki, and scrambled away, terrified. She didn't know him, and looked around fearfully. She saw Kristy, and started crawling away.

She didn't know what was going on...she barely understood her power, she didn't understand why she was here.

She just wanted to go home.

 

Sora just tried to get to Kristy, the only person she really knew to some extent

Yuki was startled by Sora's awakening. Once she saw him, she ran away. He didn't mean to scare her, so he tries to comfort her. He moves slowly close to her.

"Um....Hi. Please don't be afraid. I'm on your side. Honest. I'm now a friend of Kristy's. I want to be your friend too!" He holds out his hand towards Sora. "My name is Son Yuki, 14 year old red tailed Saiyan. What's your name?" His red tail becomes visible for Sora to see.

Turning to Yuki, Kristy smiled a little and said:  "Really?  You think so?  No, you have to be kidding."  She then turned to Sora who was crawling towards her.  "Sora!" she shouts, running to her side.  A quick hug with her good arm, Kristy says:  "Oh Sora, I'm glad you're up.  I was really worried."  Seeing Yuki trying to be friendly and Sora getting scared, Kristy says:  "It's okay, he's a nice guy.  He helped fix you up after you got hurt and fought off the monster that did it.  He's not going to trouble you."

"Theoretically I could fix it... Theoretically that is. It will hurt like hell tho." Wlynn said and examined the arm. Her wings retracted back to her body and she was normal once again. She first poked a fiev spots to see how extensive the damage was then sighed.

"Try not to pass out and by no means move your arm. If that's possible anyway." She said and took a deep breath. With both arms in contact with his injured part she tried to use what little power she could. First the muscles on his arm shrunk to an extent then a the shattered pieces of bone were cracking and piecing back together making it feel like someone was stabbing his arm with a rusted knife. Then the nerves on the arm were severed and disassembled into indifferenceiated cells. From there there was literally no pain. In a moment the cells began dividing at a supernatural pace and his muscles were being pieced back together. Now the cells recreated nervous lines and arteries which quickly span through the inner hand and connected with muscle tissue. His hand was now again back to the way it was before but immobile for some reason.

"Ok the brain should accept the new body part in a moment till then it wont move much." She said and tried to stand up but fell backwards. She felt lightheaded and dizzy for a moment then everything was back to normal.

She said and tried to stand up but fell backwards. She felt lightheaded and dizzy for a moment then everything was back to normal.

The pain was intense, but quick. "T-thank you. Very much." Ailder said, in a quiet wisper, falling unconscious at that point. the boy, though strong, needed rest.

Meanwhile he saw the Marauder attacking the officer but was stopped by  Kristy, Maxwell was finally going to do what he thought of doing to the other marauder back at Solace, he was now charging as much electricity as he could, generating some even, in order to go beyond super charging himself, he however lost some concentration on Sora's scream, he hated loud screams and the sound of crying...it reminded him of his past...

 

He took a glance back at Sora, with a expressionless expression as he then looked back at the Marauder, the electricity around him getting stronger as he looked at it with his sword drawn, he however sheathed his sword as he finished charging into supercharge, but he didn't stop charging, he kept on, however doing it would take a little while, he however made two orbs of electricity on both his hands and quickly put them both together, firing a powerful electric bolt aimed at the Marauder's eye, this wouldn't take too much charge away, as he was still charging even after firing it.

Finally feeling the strength return to his body, Nathan smiled a little and stood up. Narrowly avoiding the blades as they all seemed to fly past his head, Nathan put a hand on Nora's shoulder in order to comfort her as he spoke. "Thanks for the help. Now, don't you worry. Just keep your head low and hold on tight, I'll get us out of this mess." Taking a deep breath, Nathan closed his eyes and began to feel the gravity field of the room. "Feel it... The alteration in Gravity that sends all of these objects flying while keeping both me and Nora grounded. It shouldn't be possible, for it denies all logic. But... Who said this world had to be logical?" Nathan put his hands out to his sides, looking as if he were some kind of scarecrow as the blades began to nick at his skin, causing blood to drip from his hands and onto the floor. Nathan suddenly opened his eyes and, very fluidly, shifted the position of his hands from his sides to straight in front of him. "There!" Nathan sent out a shockwave that seemed to repel all objects a for a single moment. Having no time to waste, Nathan grabbed Nora with one arm and flicked his other arm around behind him. Sending out another shockwave, Nathan forced the two off of their feet and sent them flying towards the door. As they flew through the air, Nathan noticed that the force from his initial blast had now completely worn off. "To make her trust me... I need to do something stupid. If I take these hits, she'll owe me and will heal me later. I won't die. All that's left to do now... Is to take a few hits." Nathan pulled Nora closer to him, taking any and all attacks that breached their surroundings. Hitting the back wall hard, Nathan found that his body was covered in cuts and bruises, blood slowly leaking out once again. Letting go of Nora after determining that it was safe, the red headed boy placed a hand on the floor in an attempt to stand, but fell flat on his face from his weakened state. "This is the second time today... I've been beaten this badly..." This time however, Nathan's anger began to boil as the double doors he'd been waiting to open were now staring down at him as if to oppose him. "I'm too close... To give up now..." Nathan groaned, pushing up from the ground and taking hold of the handles on the doors. "Power... I need more power..." Standing in front of the doors, Nathan looked back at Nora with a smirk. "I told you I'd get us out of there. Now, let's see what's behind this door!" Nathan opened up the large double doors and took in his new surroundings, waiting for his glorious reward to present itself.

Everything happened so fast, it felt like a dream. By the time she realized it, the boy had pulled them out of danger's way, right in front of the doors that led to safety. However, it ended up coming at the cost of him getting hurt. She barely got a bruise while this boy was covered in blood and cuts, red covering the wall they had hit and the floor they had landed on. "...why would you do that?! That was so stupid!" Nora yelled. It was most out of common sense. Why take all of the hits when it can be half and half. Nothing was making sense. Not even the dwellers. Remembering from earlier she quickly started to paint on his wounds again. One by one bandages, band aids, and all other stuff were drawn and brought to life to cover up his wounds. "But you saved me when you could've just moved on...I owe you my life, and for that I thank you." Nora admitted. She wouldn't have lasted. Had the boy continued on without her she would be in the middle, sliced into pieces in a slow and painful death by the flying objects. She glanced at the door. "What's on the other side anyways? An exit hopefully?" Nora asked as she looked at the door with concern. It could be the exit...or another death trap. But she followed hi regardless. Better than this place.

Jason, Kristy, Sora Group

On Jason's side he was able to disarm the Marauder he faced, and the being recoiled, looking shocked.

 

Kristy watched on as the healing was working on Sora.  While not completely fixing up the wound, at least the bleeding stopped.  "Good to see it does work."  Kristy said a bit relieved.  "But wait.  It didn't work for me.  So my power can only heal others?"  But she couldn't think on it when the Marauder after Sora was coming.  Seeing it already swinging, Kristy puts up another shield to guard against it.  But this time, the shield wasn't as strong as before and cracked from the first swing.  Not to mention Kristy was feeling rather drained.  "What's going on?  How come I'm so tired?"  With the marauder giving another swing, Kristy tried to push it back with her shield.  She managed to do it, but the shield shattered after contact and her Aura faded away.  Down on her knees, Kristy started breathing faster than she usually does.  With the Marauder coming, she mumbled:  "I don't get it.  Why d-did it just break that fast?"

 

Yuki flew at fast speed. He looked down to see anyone, and fortunately, he saw them. One was a police officer who seemed to be doing fine, but he saw a girl and a younger girl who....was wearing maid clothes and had fox ears...And a fox tail....But they were in trouble. That robot was heading towards them! Yuki jumped off his cloud and shot Sun Orbs while he was falling at the Maruder! He landed kneeling down in front of Kristy and Sora, with his back and red tail facing them. He stood up and turned his head to look.

"You two okay?" 

 

Kristy tried to get up, but was still too tired.  She blinked twice when the Marauder was pushed back.  She then sees two guys landing down in front of her.  With her breathing slowing down, Kristy says:  "Huh?  So there are other people here?"  Standing up, she then mentions:  "I'm fine, though I'm a bit tired.  But I'm not sure about my friend.  That thing stabbed and knocked her down.  I managed to stop the bleeding, but she isn't well enough to keep fighting.  And...." 

 

Kristy stopped talking when she saw Yuki.  Paying closer attention to him, she notices his tail. Is....is that what I think it is?  Levitating towards him,  she gazes at it.  She tries touching it with her right hand and lets out a small shriek of joy.  "Oh my gosh!!  It is!  It's a Saiyan tail! So you're a real Saiyan??!"  Kristy asks while jumping around him and poking the tail repeatedly like a toddler hooked on candy.

 

Kristy pulls back her hand and scratches her head, feeling embarrassed.  "Uh, sorry for that. I guess my excitement got carried away.  Never thought I'd meet a Saiyan or anyone who looked like a hero.  Speaking of heroes, do you know Goku?"  She turned to Maxwell and replied:  "Hi there.  My name is Kristy and that's Sora.  You're right.  Now is not a good time for me to act like that."  Kristy places her hand on the ground and the small portion crumbled away.  Her yellow Aura starts glowing again.  She aims her right palm at the Marauder, shouts:  "This is for hurting Sora!", and fires a beam at its head.

 

Jason, Kristy, Sora, Yuki, Maxwell Group

 

The Marauder, as it was so close to striking Sora and Kristy, was suddenly struck by Yuki's attack, flying backward and then exploding, leaving the only threat as the remaining Marauder who had just been disarmed, who now charged at Jason and viciously threw a punch towards him...

 

There was still a fight to finish. The party was fighting this battle in the center of an urban intersection, flanked by several huge blank billboards and a few smaller shops with one or two skyscrapers sitting near the road nearby.

 

Watching Yuki and Maxwell using their powers, Kristy goes:  "Whoa!  You guys are something else."  She took a step back when the Marauder that attacked Sora exploded.  Turning around, she sees the last one attacking Jason.  "Officer, watch out!"  Kristy fired a beam at the arm the Marauder itself was trying to punch with, hoping it'd miss the officer.  But she wasn't sure or confident that would work.

 

The hospital smelled like sadness. It was horrible, horrible. She never liked coming, but it was her mother...she had to come...but no...she slept restlessly, by her...until the monitor. it told if she was alive, if she remained breathing...but now it screamed bloody murder. Sora couldn't even focus fully, before she was dragged to the nurses' station as a crash cart was brought in. It was the third time she had entered cardiac arrest....the third time Sora had felt this heart wrenching sorrow.

 

As the yell of CLEAR rang through the hospital...

 

Sora sat up, screaming...then fell back, clutching her side, still screaming. tears streamed down her face. She then saw Yuki, and scrambled away, terrified. She didn't know him, and looked around fearfully. She saw Kristy, and started crawling away.

She didn't know what was going on...she barely understood her power, she didn't understand why she was here.

She just wanted to go home.

 

Sora just tried to get to Kristy, the only person she really knew to some extent

 

Yuki was startled by Sora's awakening. Once she saw him, she ran away. He didn't mean to scare her, so he tries to comfort her. He moves slowly close to her.

"Um....Hi. Please don't be afraid. I'm on your side. Honest. I'm now a friend of Kristy's. I want to be your friend too!" He holds out his hand towards Sora. "My name is Son Yuki, 14 year old red tailed Saiyan. What's your name?" His red tail becomes visible for Sora to see.

 

Turning to Yuki, Kristy smiled a little and said:  "Really?  You think so?  No, you have to be kidding."  She then turned to Sora who was crawling towards her.  "Sora!" she shouts, running to her side.  A quick hug with her good arm, Kristy says:  "Oh Sora, I'm glad you're up.  I was really worried."  Seeing Yuki trying to be friendly and Sora getting scared, Kristy says:  "It's okay, he's a nice guy.  He helped fix you up after you got hurt and fought off the monster that did it.  He's not going to trouble you."

Jason, Sora, Kristy, aaannnnnnddddd Yuki apparently

 

Somewhat stupefied at the results of his attempts of disarming his opponent, Jason was tempted to immediately drop the newly acquired blade until he realized what his powers could entail. It wouldn't be fair, but I'm going to need every advantage I can get. He started to focus more on the blade that he was holding onto as he stared at it, and just as Q had implied, the blade started to glow blinding white light. The officer shielded his eyes as he felt the blade warm up in his hands, then quickly started to cool off again. When he glanced back down at the weapon, the blade was gone. In its place was a small police riot shield; It wasn't big as he was used to, being just enough to cover his torso, but nothing else. But knowing how big the blade was, the officer wasn't exactly surprised that was what the weapon could offer in terms of raw matter. Unfortunately for Jason, he quickly found out that his focusing needed some work, because just below the newly created riot shield was a small stack of Krispy Krunchy Kreme donuts, and from the way it smelled, fresh out of the oven too!

 

I can't believe I'm thinking of donuts at a time like this...

Kristy's voice brought Jason back into the current situation. "Officer, watch out!" 

Without even thinking, Jason threw himself towards the ground, and the girl's beam-like attack grazed past him, melting part of the heavy plastic that was the newly formed riot shield that he was holding. The shock of the attack left him disoriented, and he was unsure of the marauder's fate as he tried to twist his body so he could face the sky, and possibly his adversary, once again.

Alysa watched the faces of people she used to know shamble towards her. She felt the the air around her growing slightly denser. Evidently, her blade was about ready too. The Fencer heard Aro's cries, and glanced towards her ally. Alysa shook her head, disappointed that Aro had not yet realized the truth of this place. "They're not real! Don't listen to them! Just think logically for a second and then you can see a bit more clearly." Alysa called to her. Suddenly she felt the rush of air characteristic of a swipe. She didn't hesitate to quickly step to the side. She looked to the opponent, and quickly recognized her third grade teacher. Well, to be specific, a disheveled phantom of her third grade teacher. "Oh I hated you. More than usual." Alysa said, smiling slightly maliciously. She quickly slashed at the feet of the shell, completely dissolving her lower legs. Then, she swiftly sliced at the air above the fallen body, creating a large metal weight that fell from the air and crushed her victim. Another one down.

"Hmm....I think that's what she meant when we fought those creatures. I mean,come to think of it,I got new powers like Demonic Whip during we fought back then. So yeah, I think we can assume that the more we fight,our powers will be grown. That's what I think, at least..." Reverie said as he make an assumptions of Q's words.

"Well, either way, I see no reason for us to stay here. Perhaps if we keep going, we'll encounter others like ourselves." said Liath, before continuing south, further into the city.

Looking to Ailder Tristan slightly signed "(he's no better then me wanting to push his limits but whats his reason behind it...)" turning around Tristan looked towards the door in the distance "(We better get moving)" Looking back to Wlynn and Ailder Tristan spoke "Can you two still walk it's probably better if we get a move on now before anything else has a chance to happen if one of you can't walk I can carry you"

(Somewhere in the void, featuring Aro, Alysa, and Lacianne)

 

The bodies kept getting back up. Out of everyone, these were the only two who held any significance to Aro. She kept firing her beams, but every attack did little against what was already dead.

"Why must you keep killing us, Aro?" Her sister moaned, reaching for her leg. Aro flinched and stomped the arm down.

 

"Because you had to die!" Aro shouted, firing a beam from her hand, and holding it in a ball-shaped form. She swiped her arm across the two demons, and cut them apart. They kept reforming back together, but Aro was at her wits end. She wouldn't let this carry on anymore.

 

"I did what I had to...so stop haunting me!" Aro began charging up. The earth around her glowed white and slowly became one with Aro. When enough of the energy had been collected, Aro finally released it all in a powerful beam that went out to hopefully vaporize the remaining monsters.

Turning to Yuki, Kristy smiled a little and said:  "Really?  You think so?  No, you have to be kidding."  She then turned to Sora who was crawling towards her.  "Sora!" she shouts, running to her side.  A quick hug with her good arm, Kristy says:  "Oh Sora, I'm glad you're up.  I was really worried."  Seeing Yuki trying to be friendly and Sora getting scared, Kristy says:  "It's okay, he's a nice guy.  He helped fix you up after you got hurt and fought off the monster that did it.  He's not going to trouble you."

 

Sora pressed against Kristy fearfully, but the hug relaxed her, made her feel safe. She looked at Yuki, still afraid. Her fox tail was bushy and up, but a few seconds she began to relax again.

"...if you trust him..." she said softly.
