Caim, Melethia Rugal, Slindis : Time remaining: 5:00 The combination was brutally efficient, and the knee drop didn't help things much. However, she was able to roll the man off and focused again as she tried to focus in on how she could turn this around. Okay, that hurt, but it doesn't mean you're out of this. It was clear that the attack had hurt her, but she began to focus until she started to draw the shadows of the room around her, cloaking her body as she focused getting a bit of space.

Kalastryn teleports back onto the rising dawn after having a very... very long talk with the FEAR cleric that had helped them before. The cleric could not come with them as a construct from the stone, and began to fade away due to the lack of the stone to keep her... well you couldn't quite say "alive" but... in existence. She lands on the deck, from a much safer distance this time... a white ring in her palm, adorned with a strange symbol she couldn't recognize. She tries to slip the ring on, and it sizzles for a moment. She had of course been told it would only be easily wielded by someone with a pure heart. The ring stopped it's protest after half a minute or so, once it had found Kala to be quite a pure heart and soul, despite the chains she bears on both. "well, she said it would serve as a good weapon, but I wonder what it does?" she asked to herself as she went into an empty training room to test exactly that. She input in the computer just a few, rather easy targets... the computer screen came up with "Inadequate challenge detected"... but after the last time it said that, she wasn't going to let that happen, so she disabled that feature for a while. She focused rather intently on a sort of dual wielded Gatling gun, and after a few minutes there was a white, almost see through version of it in her hands, with the ammo pack on her back. As it was actually an extension of her will, it was weightless and she began firing on the dummies, realizing after a few minutes that when they actually got hit it looked downright painful were it on a living target... but that was a rare case with it's accuracy. She then clapped the two guns together and the ammo pack shifted and built itself into a stationary manned turret with shielding in the front, and firing that way made it a lot easier to aim. It was around that time Rugal and Slindis started their 10 minute showdown in a separate room. Kalastryn thought it best not to interrupt, and went off to the canteen to see if she could find anyone there. | |
Rugal, Slindis : Time remaining: 4:30 Much to his disappointment, Rugal managed to land his knee drop into Slindis's spine. Before the move connected however, Slindis used Shadow Fade and became for the most part invisible. | |
Rugal, Slindis : Time remaining: 4:00 She saw the power wave come out and easily sidestepped the blast before casting a few light healing spells to regain some stamina and faded back into view to Rugal's left in a bit better condition as she observed the man's attacks. Even though Rugal had gotten in some massive attacks, she just saw this as a way to learn more about the various ways to fight and her eyes showed that she wasn't going to stop just yet. If she did give in before the match was over, it would be incredibly disrespectful to the man that was giving her the best training she'd ever gotten. | |
Airship Rising Dawn - The Canteen Devon | Ella "What the body hell was that, Devon?" The Bard's Succubus companion hissed as she watched Caim walk off, though she had an idea of the answer to her own question. Some people called it visions, others called it remote viewing. It had been largely experimented with by the CIA back in the day when they were still feeding LSD to soldiers. Whatever you wanted to call it, Devon was tuning in to an important situation in the world, just as Jake had when he foretold the D'Angel attack on Washington D.C. It also happened most often to people of importance. Was this why Daddy had asked her to check on Devon back in hell?Did he think that there was something special about The Bard? Angelus | Cadolbolg | Puce | Ton Ton Puce watched as Caim walked out of the Canteen, a change in his carriage was noticeable as he exited. Strange things were afoot in the world and he hoped that Caim and Angelus would be in the right state of mind to stop Tomoya before the Furiae situation made things even more complex. "Angelus. Is Caim alright? He looked... Worried... I've never seen this way." Airship Rising Dawn - Crew Quarters Jack | Lucifer If Jack were not already dead and if looks could kill, Lucifer's glare would have not only set the Reaper on fire but would have sent him screaming down to the lowest rings of Hell. But instead, The Fallen One's glare served no purpose oher than displaying the prominent twitch on The Devil's forehead as Jack playing role of the Grim Cockblocker. "Nice timing Jack... do you enjoy doing this when your clients are about to admit lifelong secrets or did you do this to ME on purpose?" The Arch-Daemon asked as he made no move at all to go mobilize the Daemon fleet that was in orbit around the core of Neptune. "Even better did you just sense a twinge of happiness in my soul and come to remind me that I have duties to perform... duties that don't include being happy for once. How long has it even been since I felt an ounce of what I feel around... HER... I'll tell you how long... Since before I was given this shitty assignment... that's how long it's been! And I'm telling you! For once I want something other than making sure that the Boss' orders are met to the T." The Eternal Adversary continued to rant as he though about punching a hole in the ship's hull while imagining it was Jack's face. The Devil was clearly frustrated and it wasn't because of Jack's interference... perhaps it was his tied tongue around the Cleric or how his position made him suspicious in her eyes... "But Nooooooo we have to make sure the world continues to exist first... I'm telling you though... She might not have a tomorrow and she certainly doesn't have an eternity like you or I! This close, Jack! This close and you had to just pop into existence to shit on my day.". Lucifer said as he calmed down... there were things in the world much more important than how he felt about a human girl. And knew that this was in no way shape or form Jack's fault. "Sorry... It's just... You know... Stress" He said to the still silence Reaper. Airship Rising Dawn Network:: A.I. Vermilion | Dmitri "I'm sorry, I was not paying attention... what seems to be the problem Dimitri? The A.I. Asked her partner. | |
Airship Rising Dawn - The Canteen Devon | Ella He went and ate some more of the ribs before answering. "Well, I dunno exactly what it was, all I know is that it related to Caim, that Furiae chick's related and possibly has the worst screech I've ever heard, and that redheaded dude looks like a total fucking tool. Still, is the food working for you or did you want something different?" It seemed that Devon had recovered, although the mood of the dinner was likely ruined. "Heh, want to take the meal somewhere else so I can stop embarrassing the both of us?" He laughed more at himself botching the situation and hoped that he hadn't made a complete ass of himself. | |
Rugal, Slindis : Time remaining: 3:30 Once Slin was back in view, Rugal quickly capitalized on this and locked on his next attack.
AIM Bison glared at the pair of them, when he had offered to revive Furiae, this was not while what he had in mind. | |
Rugal, Slindis : Time remaining: 3:00 Slindis saw the shockwave coming and jumped over it. By this point, the Ten Minutes from Hell had given her what was needed to see that Rugal would follow up with another attack, so she decided to follow up with one she had seen earlier in the match:
It didn't have quite the same amount of energy behind it, but the attack should still catch the man off guard.
| |
Rugal, Slindis : Time remaining: 2:30
...Wow...she's good Rugal thought before she used the Rising Rage Flash that he himself used earlier in the fight to counter his jump in attack, a pair of heels striking his jaw and causing him to fall flat on his back. Once he was ready, He dashed in and let out a series of kicks followed by a huge downward chop.
| |
Airship Rising Dawn - The Canteen Angelus | Cadolbolg | Puce | Ton Ton Angelus shifted uncomfortably, and whispered, "It is not entirely my place to say in public. Perhaps in private I could speak with you about this? You know most of the situation with Furiae already, so you understand my need for discretion, right?" Airship Rising Dawn - Crew Quarters Teri As the Cleric finished up the shower and turned off the water, she thought she heard the sound of yelling coming from outside her door, but she couldn't quite make out the words being said. With a light frown, Teri decided to do nothing about it. If it was an argument between the Devil and the Reaper of Souls, she wanted nothing to do with it. As she readied herself for bed with the usual rituals (brushing her teeth, drying her hair, etc), the glint of red-gold caught her eyes, and saw that she hadn't taken off the charm. If anything, it had to have been made of good stuff to not have been affected by the water. With an inquisitive thought, Teri waved a hand over the necklace, casting "Detect Magic" over it and focused for a few moments... To her surprise, she found 4 separate magical auras hidden within the item, and thought long and hard about what they could be...
1st Aura: 25 - This spell is a Conjuration, Subtype: Calling spell. The Conjuration spell was probably what called him to her and Slindis' location, so Teri could easily write that one off of the pieces functionality. As for the other three enchantments...? Teri had no idea, but balked at the number of enchantments on the item anyway. Why would Lucifer give her such a thing? Although the enchantments were individually low power ones, hence her ability to decipher their schools so easily; the fact that they were all placed in one item made it a wondrous piece. "I really need to thank him for this," she thought to herself, "That is, the next time we meet.." The girl stopped herself when she thought that; 'next time we meet'? Why would she think that?! Giving herself a light tap on the head, her thoughts continued, "No... That's a silly thought. I'll probably never see him again. His job's done, whatever it was helping my brain out was for. With the Reaper right outside my door, there's no reason to assume he'll be back anytime soon." Finally getting into bed, the Cleric gave the trinket ones last look before closing her eyes. Even if the gift was from a less than savory character, she couldn't help but admit that it was something to be appreciated. Caim, Melethia Caim watched Melethia's display in confusion, and asked again, Going to another one of the dummies, Caim slashed at it for a few moments, and in the midst of his combo, Melethia saw his weapon give off a flash of light, and then he released a shockwave of purple light, knocking the dummy in question off it's 'feet' and onto the floor. Airship Rising Dawn Network:: A.I. Vermilion | Dmitri Dimitri frowned, but kept going, The dropping of the 'Ms.' in addressing the AI had caught Vermilion's attention immediately. Dimitri was being serious, but his eyes were not unkind. Rather, they were hurt more than anything. For an AI built to serve, to have his partner in service go against such protocols must have been a conflicting set of processes for the butler. AIM Inuart watched in horror as Furiae looked at the PDA, the screams of her demonic form reverberating from the device as the footage went on. When the footage ended, Furaie's grasp on the device went limp, and looked at her hands in horror, "I did all of that? That was me in that footage?! Why I can't I remember it?! Why?" Burying her face in her hands, the woman began to shake, the images from before flashing through her mind. "What if I do this again?! Oh Gods help me!" "Furiae..." Inuart slowly tried to pat his frightened love on the shoulder, but recoiled when she cried out, "Don't touch me! Don't even look at me! I'm- I'm- I'm a monster!" A choked sob gasped from the woman, and her shaking grew with each cry that fell from her. As she cried, the men began to notice something beginning to stir from underneath her gown.... | |
As Kala was walked into the canteen and saw Ella and Devon having dinner, a nervous smile had crossed her face for but a moment. She really hoped Devon wasn't under Allure or anything, but overhearing the last bit of their recent conversation, she gathered that that probably was not the case. "Well hello you two... I guess this may not be a good time to interrupt..." she said to the pair. "But if I'm going to be working with the two of you I may as well know your names." she said rather politely, the white ring glowing slightly in Ella's presence. Kala wondered if it were sentient somehow, as it tended to glow and get a bit... heated... around unsavory creatures. Not that anyone would notice also, since they weren't looking, even Kala didn't... but the flames in the fireplace seemed to stand on end and point like a needle of some sort directly towards Kalastryn. She didn't even notice, but she was about to gain unrivaled power over flame, more-so than she already had. | |
Rugal, Slindis : Time remaining: 2:00
The effect of Rugal rushing in with the combo had Slin instinctively guard her organs. This is what people in the business of killing things calls a Good Thing, since it sliced through the cloth and left decent sized gashes in her arms instead of the much more gory alternative. The pause after the last attack was a flawed one, though, as what would have been an overhead slash through a collarbone instead had the man slashing through thin air as the last bits of the Shadow Fade from earlier kicked in on that exact moment, giving the Drow time to leap back to give her a good amount of space between herself and Rugal. Although she couldn't even hope to copy that aura, she could still pick up a good bit from how the man went to close the space and see how she could counter that.
Caim, Melethia She shook her head. "Nah, that doesn't give the ranged option. Only thing is that I've never seen one of my weapons flash like that before, though. Whatcha gotta do to have that happen?" Melethia's eyes glinted when she saw the attack. Learning it would give her another option in close range combat, making her that much more versatile. However, she hadn't really shown Caim how she fought yet in the room, and there was no guarantee that he'd seen her fighting at the Temple. Kalastryn | Devon | Ella He gave a fairly polite wave to the Tiefling with sauce on his fingers. "Kalastryn, I'm Devon and the woman with me is Ella. Believe me, there's worse ways to have interrupted the meal." For someone that had thrown the world of Eberron on the path to destruction, he seemed like a fairly calm man. The mouthwatering smell from the kitchen indicated more ribs were on their way, but it seemed the two were almost done with the meal. "Do you want the rest of the meal on its way? It's quite good" | |
Rugal, Slindis : Time remaining: 1:30 Rugal nearly lost his balance as he over committed to the final strike, allowing Slindis to slip away and get some space.
AIM | |
"No thank you, I'm not really all that hungry. Anyway... after I gave you probably one of the harshest slaps I gave in my life... I've been thinking that I don't really know your point of view on utterly destroying the world I lived in... care to share?" she asked... not to seem rude and try for one of said ways to more rudely interrupt their meal... but more out of geniune curiosity... and maybe a bit of frustration on not being able to comprehend the situation from only her point of view. "I won't blame you if you don't want to dwell on it... I'm trying not to dwell myself... but I can't really put the pieces back together if I don't know what the puzzle looks like, if you catch my drift." she said to maybe soften his conscience on the subject before he answered. slightly more noticeable now, the fire started getting hot enough that Devon could feel it across the room as if he was sitting directly next to it. | |
Rugal, Slindis : Time remaining: 1:00 Slindis was able to jump out of the Kaiser Wave in a way that allowed her to keep out of the way of the immediate charge as she kept a very sharp eye on the man, trying to keep an eye on his movements and see what she could pick up. It was extremely likely that he'd go for a pin if he got close, and she didn't want to give him the chance. Ella | Devon | Kalastryn He looked at the ground, clearly not too happy with himself for what had happened to Eberron. "Kalastryn, I never intentionally wanted to destroy your home. Hell, it was one of the most unique places I've ever seen. That's probably as useful to you as an asshole on an elbow, though. Still, no matter what, it happened and I owe a debt to you, Slindis, and Melethia. I start getting mopey, go ahead and hit me with something." Ella looked at Kalastryn with a somewhat angry glare. "What's the deal with ruining me and Devi's meal, Tiefling?!" | |
Rugal, Slindis : Time remaining: 2:00 Caim, Melethia
And so, Caim tried to explain to Melethia the idea of building up magical energy in a blade, He swapped out a few weapons in the Wheel to demonstrate. For some, the shockwave was around the warrior, in others, it sent a wave in a single direction. When he finished, he looked back to Melethia, AIM After Bison left, Inuart gave Furiae's hand a light squeeze, "I understand this is extremely stressful for you; and I've probably haven't help along either. However, do know that I'm here for you; and I'll do anything in my power to make this transition easier for you. Please do what the doctors say, and do your best to stay calm... As far as I can tell, when you're upset, the beast seems to stir." Furiae gave Inuart a small glare at that, but the bard continued, "I desereved that... But.. Furiae, these people will try to help you along to control this. But please, do your best to remain calm. Don't give them a reason to attack, for they're not as forgiving as I am... And... I'm sorry that this happened the way it did. Had I had known this process would have had the effects it did, I probably would have found a different way to restore you. Unfortunately, I have to go now, but I'll return as soon as I can, alright? You're not alone here..." After giving that hand one final squeeze, Inuart got up and slowly walked away, his gaze not leaving his love's conflicted face till he left the area. As for the former Goddess? She merely stared at the machine watching her like a hawk, and mulled over all the things going on at that moment; her fear being replaced with confusion. What was going to happen to her now? Inuart had been a kind enough guide in this new and strange world, but that did not mean she understood everything going on around her. captcha: Easy as cake
| |
Rugal, Slindis : Time remaining: 0:30 Time to finish this... Rugal thought as he focused on closing the gap between him and Slindis. Then the real attack showed itself, the coup de grace: "GENOCIDE! CUTTER!"
| |
She sighs and looks to the two of them... then chuckles a bit. "forgive me madam, I did not mean to intrude. Also Devon... hit you? No, I already got out what I needed to in the temple. Besides, I hate to admit it but as much as that place was my home... it was more often than not no more kind to me than hell would be to you. So as bad of an ending it is, I'm at least a little glad that chapter is at a close. You need know however... Slindis or Melethia may blame you... but I for one do not. she again apologizes to Ella for the intrusion... but between her clearing her mental demons, forgiving Devon, and coming to the realization she might not go to hell after all, the flames in the fireplace seemed to fly rapidly at Kalastryn... swirling around her and then seems to be absorbed into her hands... which then light themselves with glowing white fire, so hot it makes Devon a bit uncomfortable... then it fades. It would appear she found some newfound power from these recent developments... | |
Rugal, Slindis : Time remaining: :15 The attack came at the Drow too fast to dodge, so she just braced for impact as the kicks shattered her guard. To say the attack hurt would be an understatement to the sheer force behind it. For many others, the amount of damage it inflicted would kill them outright. However, Slindis got up out of a sheer force of will. "...We're...not...done...yet..." It was here that Rugal saw one of the great strengths Slindis had: no matter what, she would keep going at something until she had seen it done. And although it seemed impossible that she was still living, she was standing right in front of him with a fierce pride in her eyes. Rugal's training had served to awaken the potential she would have never shown had she kept fighting in the way she did, and she raised battered and torn up arms to show that she wouldn't back down or disrespect Rugal by giving in. Caim, Melethia She nodded. "It makes sense, Mister. Wanna check one of my blades to see if it's not just them messin me up?" Melethia handed over the crackling longsword which was more of a shortsword to the man, and he found that she'd made it with exquisite balance. Devon | Ella | Kalastryn He looked at the flames that had surrounded Kalastryn and slowly got ready to leave. "Well, Slindis doesn't want to kill me and Melethia seems to get on well enough with me. And whether or not you liked it, it was your home. You had family and friends there. Keep the memories close to you, because in the end, that's all you really can keep about them." The way he spoke made it completely clear to Kalastryn that Devon was speaking from experience. | |
"That may be the case Devon... but also, It may not be... I survived, and so did Slindis and Mele... I very highly doubt we were the only ones who escaped." The flames now completely disappeared. "And again, you've my apologies for intruding on what I assume is a date with your... friend... there. Anyway I'll be going now so you can continue without my interruption again" She says as she stands up from the chair and walks off to her room... where she collapses on her bed, very quickly getting to sleep. | |
Rugal, Slindis : Time remaining: 0:00 Rugal soon landed after his attack, noticing first off that there was blood on his leg from where the move connected with the Drow. "Right, how did this go again..." He said as he rubbed his hands together before holding them above her arms. AIM Minutes passed with no word of either this "Dr. Cortex" or anyone else for that matter. Sometime later After an unknown amount of time passed, during which she dozed off, Cortex finally arrived, hovering in on his repaired hoverboard. "But first, I have to ask: How exactly did you come to obtain such strange powers? Might help my research." | |
Rugal, Slindis She kept her focus as she placed her hands over the injured neck, casting a Cure Moderate Wounds spell to seal the wound on her neck. "...that was some of the best training I've ever had, Rugal. I know I may have gone too far in the match, but what was I going to learn by fleeing? I wish I'd lasted a bit longer in it, though." Due to the cloth on the left arm being torn in multiple spots, Rugal could see the markings on her arm that had the same coloring as her hair. If it wasn't for the Ki being intertwined with the markings, it would have been easy to mistake it as an extremely well-made tattoo. At the same time, she hadn't been touching the Mark for more than an anchor to use the more advanced techniques. | |
Rugal, Slindis Rugal noticed the Marking and thought back to the Temple when that false version of Slindis bore the exact same, though she was more..."Open" (Under-statement of the year) about showing it. | |
Rugal, Slindis As Rugal healed up the last attack, she laughed. "I know about that final attack, but the move just came out at such an incredible speed. I don't know many that could have lived after taking that kind of attack, but I've had to live with much worse." Although the situation was a bit awkward, she knew that Rugal was aiding with the healing. "I'll do my best to improve on what you showed me, though. Any less would be disrespectful to you." | |
Rugal, Slindis Rugal felt his ego get massaged, something he always enjoyed, but rather then the standard "I'm the best at everything!" vibe, it was more quiet pride. | |
AIM Furiae took a deep breath to calm herself with the appearance of the strange doctor; reminding herself that she was in a strange world with monsters, oddly shaped people, and what have you; and spoke with a soft voice, "As far as I understand from Inuart, I was placed within a construct called the Seed of Resurrection. As far as I remember from the myths and legends from our world, they are said to either herald the destruction or rebirth of mankind... As far as I can tell, placing me within it has cause the former rather than the later to our world..." She paused for a moment, mulling over the events of a few hours prior, and spoke up again, "Doctor, do you know of a man named Caim? He's a bit taller than I, does not speak, and wields a black blade with matching armor. He is my brother. I am afraid to ask Inuart because the two have had a long standing feud with one another. Not that I am ungrateful for being brought back, but if I knew about anyone else from our world being here, I-..." She looked away, her intentions being very clear. She was still lost and scared in this new world; and desperate for some semblance of familiarity. Rising Dawn - Living Quarters Teri awoke after some time of slumber, and after a quick status report from Dimitri, found that the Time Bubble about her had finally been dispelled while she slept. With a stretch and a yawn, Teri found that her various bits of equipment had been cleaned as she slept, another task that could be chalked up to her AI's devotion to his mistress. Taking her time getting herself decent, Teri placed the gloves and the goggles lent to her by Melethia with the intention to return them, and wandered to the Canteen. She had intended to only grab something portable, as the girl wanted to get to her post; where she suspected she'd have some time alone to think. A lot had happened in a few days, and the Cleric wanted to be able to piece things together and try to make sense of everything. Although the encounter with her... Well, Teri decided to revert to Persona terms and decided to call it her 'Shadow'; it made things easier to define. After her encounter with her Shadow, Teri did admit to feeling a bit lighter, but she still felt confused about her encounters with Lucifer, Rugal, and her feelings regarding her subsequent deaths of the Preacher and the Angels. Perhaps when she felt ready to talk to someone (which would probably come after food in her stomach and some time to sort out her feelings), things could make a bit more sense. Grabbing a bowl of Cheerios and a water bottle from the Canteen, Teri made her way to the Med Bay, and to her surprise, saw a familiar Pokemon sitting on one of the beds expectantly. With a small noise of from the back of her throat, Teri's Tablet went off: | |
AIM Cortex flipped open his Notebook and made a memo about Furiae's past revival, circling and underlining the "Seed of Resurrection" part. Cortex then looked over his shoulder and leaned in closer to whisper "Be very careful who you tell that fact to. Now I wasn't around for most of it but there is some very bad blood between your brother and the higher ups at this facility. So long as you keep it to yourself, you should be okay, but if you just start throwing his name around..." Jenny After finishing her soup and prying herself away from Akane's warm embrace Jenn- | |
Airship Rising Dawn - The Canteen Ella nodded to the woman as she left, accepting her apologies for the inconvenience before returning her attention to her companion for the night. She had not touched the ribs even though they seemed delicious. However the soul that she had absorbed from the False Caim had been processed and she found that she was in need of a different form of sustenance. "I'm sorry Devon. It all looks... so great... but I need to find something else." She said as she showed Devon her trembling hands. The girl was shivering, not due to being cold but rather like a junkie would if they no longer had access to their drugs. Standing up, Devon reached up and snatched Ella by the hand, holding her there for a moment and transfixing her with his eyes. "Sorry... Devi. I've gotta go get something that I can really eat. She said as she nodded at the lights of Havana in the distance, it's streets filled with the souls of Cuban men... men that would allow her to last for a few more days before her next required feeding. Angelus | Cadolbolg | Puce | Ton Ton Puce nodded towards Angie and continued to eat while deep in thought. Furiae was indeed Caim's sister but she was dead wasn't she? Didn't Caim end up having to kill her? It was a rather sad thing to have to do but what would Furiae have to do with the Caim leaving in a manner like that. Unless... "Angelus. The sooner the better if you would." Puce whispered in response as he looked around towards the other members of the crew to see if anyone else was aware of what Caim's leaving could have signified. Airship Rising Dawn - Crew Quarters His rant completed, Lucifer left opened a portal to the daemon fleet, intent on rallying them and intent on delaying their assault on the Angel fleet. While it would have been bad for Tomoya's forces to win the day, it would have been worse to have Lucifer's daemon forces utterly destroy the D'Angel fleet, a move that would have not not only won the day but crippled the over all Angel forces, a move that the Lucifer did NOT want to see happen. As Lucifer entered the bridge to the Cerberus, he checked on the status of the fleet. "Commander Fangmark. Contact the 6th fleet and tell them to rendezvous with us at the Deep Core Neptune base." The Commander of the Daemon forces ordered the Executive Officer of the Cerberus. "Aye aye, milord. However... if I have to interject. They are nearly 60 days away and if we do not attack now, we might miss the opportunity to destroy a majority of the Angel fleet." Asked the X.O. as she still relayed the orders. "Noted, Commander but if the whole of the Angel fleet comes, you know that they outnumber us three fold." Lucifer said, hoping that his ruse would work. Airship Rising Dawn - Network: " " " | |
AIM Furiae deflated a little when she heard Cortex tell of her brother having a bad reputation with the members of this facility; but was still felt a bit of hope in hearing that her brother was indeed alive and in this world. With a small smile, Furiae gave the doctor a quiet thank you as he continued scribbling notes down about her condition. Perhaps she had found a (somewhat) friendly face in this compound after all? At the very least, she knew her brother and his dragon companion were indeed here, and that alone was enough to elevate her spirits in this dark place. Jenny Teri silently kicked herself for being so forward about Jenny's name, realizing that the Pokemon didn't know her at all; even if the Author knew plenty about her. Thus, she decided to go for a different approach, and as she wandered to the medicine cabinet and pulled out the appropiate bottle for the Pokemon, Jenny noticed that as Teri 'spoke', she found that the voice in question did not come from her mouth. No, the girl's lips didn't move at all. Rather, on a strap from her shoulder was attached a Tablet PC, and from that, a voice emitted from a speaker. Strange, but Jenny noticed that her long-time ally Caim had a similar device. Another mute? Either way, the Pokemon couldn't help but feel a calming sensation wash over her as the Cleric fussed about in the Med-Bay, setting down her makeshift breakfast as she got Jenny a glass of water to go with the medicine. Whoever this girl was, her intentions seemed true enough, and the kindness in her words was a genuine thing. Caim, Melethia Caim tested out the blades, giving each a routine set of sword strokes to follow through before shrugging, Caim gave Melethia back her weapons as he switched back to his familial blade, | |
Rugal, Slindis She accepted Rugal's hand and got up, worn out and battered but clearly alive and kicking. "That's also a good point, but the techniques I learned today will help me a great deal later on. But more importantly, I'll need to sew these clothes back together. I may not have used it recently, but it's one of the small things that I picked up." Her face showed more than a small amount of embarrassment with some of the more unfortunate areas that the Genocide Cutter had hit. Devon | Ella | Kalastryn Devon held Ella tightly and hugged her. "So, there's no way that I can really help you with this? I've already promised fifty years of my afterlife to someone, but if there was a simpler way that I could help you now, I would be for it." He didn't know it, but the way that the man was so genuine despite having been in Hell made it easier for the two to be near each other. Caim, Melethia She nodded as she took the blade back. "Well, Mister, mosta the blades you've got feel a bit weird, if ya know what I mean. Like there's some weird story behind each of them..." She began delivering slashes to the dummies, and of special note to Caim was that each spot the girl got was something that would be a confirmed kill slash - through the neck, into the chest cavity, across the gut and between the legs. | |
Airship Rising Dawn - Crew Quarters Jack | Lucifer As Lucifer stepped through the portal he heard a whisper on the wind. "I'm sorry...Good luck..." Jack had already vanished himself. More work was ahead of him, thanks to Tomoya. Jake A quick stop by the canteen and he had a sammich, and he snuck out to wander the ship. 10 minutes of wandering and one finished sammich later he found himself down by the training rooms. Seeing two of them already occupied, he walked a bit further along looking for an empty one, hoping none of the occupants wold notice him through the windows. His luck was pretty shit though. Akane And there was nothing wrong with that, the Kitsune thought. | |
AIM After several more minutes of questioning, Cortex finally came up with a treatment for Furiae's Demonic side. Jenny Jenny thought back to that woman from Dillon's Wedding as she examined the cold medicine. Rugal Slindis's comment brought back a nagging issue Rugal forgot to bring up. | |
As Asia started to burn, the harbinger of doom and death was in DC to eliminate all the world leaders off in one go. The leader of the Archangel fleet was currently on his way to gain control of a group to make things easier for him. The crowd of cultists surrounded the DC monument, like fleas attracted to dogs and mosquitoes attracted to blood. The cult was formed up of fifty to seventy people, most wore the usual brown cult robes whilst the unique few wore black. The leader was an obvious looking person who wore a metal mask and had a big book. After D.Tomoya infiltrated the crowd he started to think, "Why am I not butchering these people instead?" He thought and left a angry frown on his face. Then the words of one person entered his mind. "Remember... we shall not cause blood shed until your objective is complete." Said the voice. This instantly made D.Tomoya more confident and made him lust after his goal even more. He wanted to cover DC in blood. Just like the person who told him his goal. Reaching the stairs leading right to the monument, the dark angel was blocked off by a line of people in black robes. "Halt, no commoner may pass to see the master." One of the guards said but instantly, the guard has blood flowing down his nose and to his mouth. "I suggest you let me through before I send you to the Reaper... and boy... he isn't looking good lately." D.Tomoya threatened the guard and his eyes flashed red once and the man was on the ground coughing up blood, he was actually choking on it. All the black robe cultists surrounded the man to check him out. Meanwhile Dark Tomoya walked up the stairs and saw the person in the mask, the leader of the cult. "Before you say shit about me being a prophet... all I want is the help of your group. If you do not comply... I can simply control you and dispose of you afterwards." The Dark Angel said in a cold and dark tone as he pointed one of his claws at the leader.
As the pitter patter of the shower rained all around him, Riki was sitting on a stool washing himself, from both the training he just had and the jungle adventure they had went out on. "So much death and so much fighting for some stone... what will this do Shaun... how will it help us?" Riki asked himself as he finished rinsing off most of the soap. He doesn't know what the mature writer wanted them to do, or what he plans to do for the future. All Riki wants is to protect his loved one and now this world which Shaun had helped mold with many people. Suddenly Riki could hear the change room door open. "Hm, is that you Kud?" He called out to the noise. "Yes Riki!" she said as she poked her head into the actual bathroom. "It will take some time to cook... so... so I thought I could come in as well." Kud fidgeted for a bit whilst Riki looked on in confusion. "Aha, you don't need to ask me. You worked hard as well with training." Riki said which led to a beaming smile from his girlfriend. "Ehehe, okay I'm coming in!" Kud said. After the two came out of the bathroom all they could see was burnt eggs and rice. "Well... least the rice is good." He said and lightly laughed. Looking over to Kud she had a pout on her face and looked annoyed for some reason. "Ooooh... this is you fault Riki... since you did that." Kud said which led the two to blush. Riki could only lead the conversation away from that topic to save his hide. "I'll make some more scrambled eggs... but I wonder when we will be allowed to get some time off. We need to buy some stuff for this place. Like clothes and more food supplies." Riki said as he got behind the counter to make extra eggs.
The writer was still in the Blackhawke and inside the cold, steel prison cell which he had been tortured by Dark Tomoya some time ago. Right now the man known as Shaun was lying on the bed and just looking at the ceiling, wondering what will happen. Will he die? Will the world be overcome with death? And most importantly... what will become of the people he cares about? Half of Shaun's head was covered in little blood from going mad and smashing his head against the mirror. This caused him to get rid of his mask so he could pluck the mirror shards and try to medicate the wound. The bleeding had stopped and he had washed most of the blood off. Looking to the side, Shaun could some how still see his reflecting in the shattered mirror pieces. The professional writer tried to smile to himself but couldn't manage to work the face muscles. His mood was low and his morale was low. "Who can beat those guys?" He sighed as he fell asleep in the cold, dark space of his cell. "You are still weak... I'll help you with that." | |
David After failing to contact Richardson in UNIT, David went up to the bridge to try and hail whatever outfit of the Military was on the scene, hoping to warn them of the incoming attack. "Attention all security detail in the District of Columbia, This is David West, Formerly of EATTF and currently of the Rising Dawn. We have received a credible lead on the next target of the Enemy: You. I urge you all to cancel the meeting, I repeat, Cancel the meeting. A battle breaks out here and we have a massive international incident on top of a massive dent in the global chain of command. Do not take this as an insult, as a challenge or anything else. All you have to worry about is getting those VIPs out of here quickly as far away as humanly possible before the bullets start flying. We are willing and standing by for orders, consider the entire group at your disposal, We'll be entering your Airspace soon. I await a response, West out." Thus he closed the feed and started praying to whatever gods there were that it wasn't you he thought it was. | |

Rugal, Slindis : Time remaining: 5:30
The knee did little against steel toned abs which had survived MUCH worse.
Getting a hand around Slindis's neck, Rugal held her both off the ground and into the wall.
"Shoulda aimed lower." He snarked before brutally showing her how to knee someone in the gut, several times in fact.
Had Slindis not been in the way, He could have dented the wall.
"Come on! If you can't win in a fist fight, what will you do to those who have swords and guns!?"
Once his demonstration was over, he flung the Drow across the room in the opposite direction before leaping up in the air for a large knee drop into her spine while she was down.
DC10 to Dodge, yadda yadda yadda
