Oblivion 22

Sounds about right.

Well, if all you wanna do is watch, be my guest.

That's a possibility... The two are probably going to need people to look after them when they're done fighting though.

-_- You can't be serious...Tristan and Nathan would probably end up working together and destroy anyone who had the nerve of interrupting their battle.

I know. I'm not. My defence hasn't increased at all, so a couple of good hits would put Nathan down for a while. Anyway, it's almost time for the great Rival Battle between Nathan and Tristan!! *is getting excited*

Staring at the crystal that radiated with power, Nathan leaped at the opportunity and calmly took the crystal from Asher. Smirking, the red headed gravity user held the crystal up on the palm of his hand, standing up straight. "Asher, my young companion, this is what we need to get stronger. By gathering these crystals, I'm sure we can find powers that can even transcend Q's. I'm sure of it. So, without further ado..." Nathan then closed his hand, gripping the crystal tightly as he felt a sudden surge of power overwhelm him from within. "This feeling... It's just like before... Power... Give me more power..." Nathan's smirk stretched into a wide grin as he began to laugh, the power flowing through his body seemed to rejuvenate him to the point he felt almost overpowered. With the crystal's glow slightly diminishing, Nathan calmed down slightly, putting the crystal into his pocket. Looking at his hands, the young man outstretched his palms and pointed them at the rubble surrounding them. The rubble began to levitate effortlessly into the air before being thrown miles into the distance. "Good. My powers have come back to me. Now..." Nathan turned back in the direction the firework had been. "We're going to where that firework went off. I have someone I said I'd meet back up with." Nathan started walking in the direction of the firework, making sure Asher was following him before breaking out into a run. "We have to get their quickly, otherwise they might move locations." Nathan then held his arms up, creating a constant field on himself and Asher that lessened the gravity acting upon them, allowing the two to run much faster. "At this rate, we'll be there in minutes." Nathan smirked, looking forward to the encounters that lay ahead. "Maybe... Just maybe... I'll finally get to fight that fire user from back then too..."

Alright, I'm gonna go ahead and take the crystal's power. By doing this, I'll allow Nathan to now lessen and even disable the gravity around him. This'll increase his mobility and physical strength like Neko suggested as well as help in other situations that are sure to come.

You guys~...

I have a question. Since you put Nathan and Asher as "AxN", does that mean you jumped on the bandwagon and are now shipping the characters?

Yeah. Read MDS' latest post on the RP.

Nathan smiled at his new underling and turned to face the road ahead of them with confidence, his body slowly regaining its former strength. "Well then Asher Sterben, let's go and rock this world of everything it's got!" Nathan smirked, throwing his fist into the air triumphantly before he suddenly saw a firework in the sky that said 'HERE'. "Could that be Nora? I can only imagine her pulling off something so flashy..." Nathan then felt the ground shake heavily from Q's attack that he was unaware of. "What the hell was that? ... It came from where that firework went up." Holding a hand to his chest, Nathan felt the crystal he had been keeping from defeating Warthyp, remembering that he had promised Nora that he would find her again. "A promise? Yeah right. I don't even know the girl and I only pretended to be interested in being friends with her." Nathan then remembered something and headed over to the rubble of the coffee shop. "Asher, I need you to help me now. If Eweren is like one of the other guys I defeated then she should have had some kind of gem or crystal on her that would have contained all of her power. If we get that crystal, we may be able to further increase our powers." Nathan then held out his hand to the rubble, hoping to be able to shift it using his powers, but no such power came to him. "Damn it... Do I really have to do this myself." The young man clicked his knuckles, stretching his arms before picking up pieces of rubble and moving them out of the way in an attempt to find any remains of Eweren's body or a power source that may have survived the explosion.

Just earned the Platinum Trophy for Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix and my 40th Platinum Trophy! I feel awesome!!

Neko! I posted! Sorry I took so long, I've had this heavy writers block lately. I'll try and post more from now on.

Nathan froze into place, a look of confusion emblazoned across his face. It's not as if Asher had said anything out of the ordinary, but it was still so ridiculous of a concept for Nathan to understand. A friend? What kind of idea was this? The word and its definition was present in his mind, but the feeling of having such a thing was completely alien to him. Therefore, it came to Nathan's mind that he had obviously misheard Asher as he was sure no one would actually want to be his friend. "Ahem! ... I understand that you think so highly of my power and I am grateful for your assistance and the fact that you are now sparing my life... And so! To repay you, I will allow you to become... my underling! By becoming my disciple, I will be able to teach you about becoming strong and looking after yourself!" Nathan turned away, grinning as he put a hand to his chin, muttering away on his own. "I've always wanted a protégée that I can instruct and help become a respectable young adult, and now I can! This is going to be fun!" Turning back to Asher with a smile, Nathan's shaking body stood tall in an attempt to seem more durable. "With you at my side, I'll be able to build my army and overthrow Q easily! This all just like a game that requires the right pieces to win... Oh!" Nathan stopped in the middle of his rant as he suddenly remembered that he and Asher had not been properly acquainted. Clearing his throat, the young red head held out his hand with dark smirk on his face. "Of course, how could I forget to properly introduce myself. My name is Nathan Cross, son of the famous Charles Cross who is the CEO of the "Cross International Business" company. However, that information is irrelevant as I will become the CEO as soon as I return to the world we came from. Now, before we get started, what is your name?"

(Finally! I have the time to post! ) After watching Asher defeat Eweren using a cleverly placed bomb, Nathan closed his eyes with a sigh ready to be blown up as well. But then, something happened that Nathan did not expect, Asher had saved him. Why had he done this? Nothing in Nathan's mind would answer the question that plagued him about the pyrokinetic's motives. After the two of them had only barely managed to survive the explosion, rubble and dust swarming around them, Nathan paid attention to the swirling colours that now began to revitalise the section of the city around them. Coming to the conclusion that Eweren was in fact defeated for sure, Nathan felt the very same energy flowing through the city flow through himself as well, healing his wounds slightly. Attempting to stand, Nathan put one foot on the ground and tried to push himself up with his hands, but his body would only shake weakly and cause him to land back on the ground. "I can't move..." Looking back at Asher who could be a potential threat to him, Nathan shuffled away until he managed to move himself into a sitting position against the wall of the building opposite the coffee shop that just exploded. Seeing that he couldn't escape or fight back, Nathan would have to use his way with words in order to make sure that Asher wouldn't kill him while he had the chance. However, before making any sort of suggestion for Asher to not harm him, there was something that Nathan had to know. "... Why didn't you leave me there? Don't you hate me for attacking you? I knew we couldn't take on Eweren alone, but you could have just left me in the building and then me and that woman would have ended up dead. So why? Why would you save me if you knew you could get away with killing me?" Once again attempting to stand up, this time using the wall for support, Nathan shakily made it too his feet. Although, his body still would not respond to him correctly and his powers had also seemingly disappeared again. "I need to find time to recover. Then again, if I go off alone, I might encounter some dolls and wouldn't last even a minute against them in this condition. But if I stay here, I'm in danger of being killed by Asher. Just what am I supposed to do here damn it?"

I know~! TT_TT Just one more day of hell and then I can bask in the infinite heaven which is "Free Time".

Thanks. I should be ready to get back to RPing properly after my college lessons on Friday.

I've been really busy with college work lately and I haven't been able to RP properly, so I'm sorry for the inconvenience this may have on anyone I am RPing with. On a side note, is anyone interested in a Hunter X Hunter RP? Because I've been considering making one for a while, but kinda need help making a stable plot for the story to run on.

Okay. I need to let you all know that I'm really sorry that I haven't been able to post. It's coming up to the end of the college year and I still quite a lot of work to do, so I haven't been able to take any time out for responding to any of the RPs that I'm in. But I should have all my work completely finished this Friday, so I'll be able to get back to posting at that time. Again, sorry for the inconvenience.

~Vanitas~ Having been halted by the duo, Maverick picked up his skateboard and narrowed his eyes. He was clearly surrounded with no way of escaping within this dark alley and he was sure that the two men were much stronger than he was physically. However, after Maverick heard the name Trent Malone followed by the name 'Ventus', he knew something had was very wrong. There were people besides himself that knew of the other world from which they had originally come from. Thinking on his feet, Vanitas smiled as he came up with a plan. "Ventus? That's quite a strange name to be heard in a city like this. Isn't that Latin or something? Anyway~... Who wants to know what my name is? I figured that the people who are clearly stopping me from escaping should be able to prove to me that they're trustworthy before I give them information. So talk, who are you and why are you looking for this 'Ventus' character?" The dark haired boy took another look at his interceptors, getting the feeling that he had possibly seen them before, but couldn't put any names to their faces. Perhaps he was not completely immune to the curse after all. ~Riku~ Flint sighed heavily as Aeria left with Zach, feeling as if the girl really didn't want his and Lukas' help dealing with Maverick despite her saying otherwise. With a laid back and slightly exasperated expression on his face, Flint took another swig from his drink as he looked over at Lukas who was trying to think of a way to repay him. "Forget about it Lukas. If you want to make it up to me, then stand up to Maverick the next time he shows up. I know that he's really overbearing and you might even be a little afraid of him. But, if he keeps seeing that weakness in you and continues pushing you around, you won't be able to help Aeria get away from him." Slouching in his seat, the silver haired teen looked out at the rest of the diner, seeing the many customers come and go. Something about this normality seemed off to Flint, it always had. Even though he was happy, he always wanted more out of his life. "This world... Don't you think it's a little small?" ~Tidus~ Allen smiled as he was greeted by Iris, standing up in order to seem polite. "I'm Allen. Allen Marlow. It's nice to meet you Iris." The young blonde looked over Iris, trying to figure out what kind of person would organize such an event as this. Scratching the back of his head with a chuckle, Allen looked off into the distance. "Well, I'm not entirely sure why I'm here and I don't know how I can help. But I'm here to help, so I'll make sure to do my best." Looking around, Allen found that there were quite a number of people at the apartment now and there were still a number of people that he was quite unfamiliar with. "I don't really know anyone here besides Nicole and Rachel, so it's nice to be able to meet so many new people. I've been told by Rachel that they're all very nice people though. So... exactly what are we supposed to do here?"

Finding himself face to face with Eweren, Nathan could somehow tell the being before him was on a completely different level to Warthyp. His gaze narrowed as he could feel his fists shaking. The young man's body trembled from both the fear and the excitement of facing an enemy that was once again stronger than himself. However, it was slowly becoming apparent to Nathan that his powers were taking their toll on his body once again. "In order to win... I have to make this quick." Scrunching his hands up together, the determined youth began his inverted assault upon Eweren while running along the roof. Throwing his right fist forward with all of his might, Nathan managed to score a hit to Eweren's body, but the damaged dealt seemed minimal. His powers were growing weaker and the strain put on his body, especially his bones, was only growing. Smirking as the stakes slowly stacked, Nathan used the distance he had closed between them to grab Eweren around the waist. The red headed youth's face was plastered with the grin of a madman. "Going down!!" Suddenly, everything in the room was overcome with a tremendous force of gravity, driving them heavily into the ground. This of course included both Nathan and Eweren who fell from the roof and dived straight into the ground, not to mention Asher who was still in the room. After the dust from the two hitting the floor cleared, Nathan could be seen stuck to the ground with only his hands from his elbows and below pointing upwards, still continuing to push everything downwards. "I can't see that woman from here... She has to be feeling this gravity... She has to be dying by now!!" Nathan coughed up a large amount of blood, feeling his body being crushed under the weight of his own power until he exhausted himself completely. Barely breathing, Nathan attempted to move away, but found that none of his limbs would cooperate with him. Gritting his teeth at his inability to move, aside from his head and fingers, Nathan kept his eye out as he glanced over at Asher. Realising that the young boy was in a much better condition than he was, he began shouting at him to finish what he had started. "Asher, finish this!! Don't make the fact that I spared your life mean nothing!! Kill her now!!"

Wouldn't it also be funny if no ones powers worked while they're at the beach. Everyone who has trouble getting along will have to settle their differences in a game of beach volleyball!

Wait a minute... The Special Tier for this month is "Summer"? I'll have you all know that nothing says Summer like a Beach episode from every stereotypical Harem Anime.

#dealwithit

The trio watched as Rose had appeared in front of the three and managed to recall all of their names correctly. Haru in particular had become slightly embarrassed that she had remembered due to what Alex and Koyomi had said to him previously. Following Rose into the classroom, the three bore witness to their teacher who Rose had mentioned was actually Anubis' mother. Immediately, this drew Koyomi's attention as he was still having thoughts about what Samael might tell him after school had finished. Sitting in their seats with Alex sat between Koyomi and Haru while Haru ended up sat directly beside Rose. Haru felt like he should be thanking someone that he got to sit next to such a beauty, but the only thing that he could think about was the fight he was going to have with Alex later. Koyomi sighed, looking over the class with a dull expression as he crossed his arms and sat back with his eyes closed, giving very little attention to the lesson. Alex on the other hand was ready to take as many notes as humanly possible, feeling more energetic than usual. However, Alex's gaze was focused upon Haru, his mouth trying hard not to turn up into a smile. "(Haru... Unless you use your full strength against me in our fight, you will lose. So, what could you be hiding... on that right arm of yours?)" As the class carried on with Mrs Thanatos beginning the topic of the lesson, Koyomi opened his eyes very slowly, somehow having the teacher's warm and gentle aura overwhelm his senses. "(What... Is this? I feel so... Lightheaded...)" Within that moment, Koyomi face planted straight into his desk loudly. To everyone else, it would appear as if Koyomi had simply collapsed due to his lack of sleep, but in truth, something much more deranged was happening inside of Koyomi's mind. "What happened? Where am I?" Koyomi looked around slowly, trying to gain some kind of idea of where he had arrived at. "Please don't tell me I'm in another stupid and nonsensical dream..." "I wish it were... Then it would mean that 'we' wouldn't be real." Koyomi froze, a new and almost alien emotion enlightening his senses, fear. As he turned around, Koyomi was greeted by a figure who was bound by chains, their body scorched black on one side and bleached white on the other. "Who are you? Are you the one who's been telling me where to go?" "No... We did not originate from the outside... We were born here... And have survived for so very long... Too long... Very soon, we will awaken once again." "What does that mean? How are you inside of my head? What was it that brought me here? Answer me!" "You are but a boy, one who craves answers that you are not yet ready for. If you were to learn the truth right now, then your mind might not be able to handle it." Koyomi stares, blood leaking from gaps in the enclosed room, filling it up slowly. "Answer one of my questions! Please! Give me something!! I need to know who I am! What I am!" The White and Black figure tugged on its chains as it slowly reached down towards Koyomi's body. "That warm and overwhelming aura is one you can only feel from a mother who loves their child... Search for that feeling once again, and once you do, 'we' will finally be released from our imprisonment." Koyomi reached up towards the being. "What's your name?" "We... Are Nephilim." As soon as Koyomi and Nephilim's hands touched, Koyomi's eyes began to burn as images began to flash before his eyes rapidly. Events that he had no memory of, yet they had everything to do with who he was. "The Last Nephilim isn't me... It lives... inside of me." Returning to reality, Koyomi's body appeared to have frozen in place before he fell off his chair and onto the floor, his eyes darting left and right as he seemed to be paralysed with fear. "(There's a monster... Living inside of me... It can kill me at any moment... And I can't do anything about it... Is this fear? My first emotion that I've ever felt is fear? Could it be that I'm human after all? I'm surrounded by enemies... If anyone finds out, I could be killed... Samael... He knows... He knows what's inside of me... How else would he know to come after me? ... Wait, I'm drawing attention to myself. I need to calm down... Now!)" Koyomi slowly got back on to his seat, his face deadly serious. "Sorry... I fell asleep. I'll make sure to pay more attention in the future." Everyone else in the class, especially Alex and Haru who were completely bewildered. "Dude, you okay?" "... No comment."
