D.C. Battle Grounds - Beachhead The Paladin and the staff couldn't get anything out of the Cleric until she finally broke to a stop (a building wall had helped in that regard) and sunk to her knees, sobs shaking the girl's entire being as her teacher and Jenny caught up to her. When all asked what was wrong, Dimitri appeared before them in a hologram, gave a small bow, and began to speak, After another chocked sob, Teri's 'voice' shot from the tablet in idignation, | |
Airship Rising Dawn - The Bridge There was a long pause as A.I. Vermilion processed what to do or what to say to Jake in that instance. But when her logoc protocols came back with the expected results, the lights of the ship took on a red hue.
D.C. Battle Grounds - Beachhead For what seemed like an eternity the only thing that the Archangel could do was stand there and watch as The Cleric receded from view. He was stunned and his mind, far more intelligent than the most intelligent human of the day, struggled to process what had happened. [i]"She... She... She called me beautiful? Is that what she called me?[i]" He asked himself he tried to remember everything that had just happened. "She stood there in awe of me... She stood there admiring me and ... she thought me beautiful." He said to himself as a smile started appearing on his face. The pieces finally started falling into place for good when he remembered her concern for her welfare. She wanted him to change back because she was putting him in danger. She ... wanted to keep him safe? "Skies above... She... wanted me to be safe... She ... wants me to be safe and that means .." Ding! Ding! Ding! That's right she has feelings for you oh Great Fallen One and as a Christian, how fucked up has that gotta be for her? She knows you as the Ulimate embodiment of evil, as the one who will have a showdown with The Boss during the End of Days. How does that not throw anyone for a loop? It was at that point Lucifer realized that there was someone standing next to him, watching as her Cleric fled the scene. The Boss stood there with a smile on her face, not a cruel one but one that knew that while things might be difficult for the two... But they would face these hardships together... and she told him that. Of course this would all dependant on whether he was going to go after her or stand there gawking. The Morning Star would have probably stood there for another eternity if it wasn't for every fiber of his being screaming GO!! And go he did... The Fallen One... The Prince of the Underworld... The Beast of the Pit started running. | |
Jenny After catching up with Teri and meeting her AI Butler, Jenny tried to calm Teri down, using her qualifications as a clinical psychiatrist to get pass Slindis and Dimitri. | |
D.C. Battle Grounds - Beachhead Slindis looked Teri dead in the eyes. "Not my concern? Teri, you are my student. It most certainly is my concern, so start talking. I've already had to fight a dragon to help you see sense, so sny thoughts of me ignoring you can leave right now." | |
Jenny | Slindis | Teri The Cleric nodded grimly, and after a sorry attempt to wipe the tears from her face, she took a few deep breaths and drank from one her water bottles, the action helping in her calming down a bit, even if her emotions were anything but. Taking in another gasp of air, Teri looked ready to say something, but then shot her hand before her; chanting something in Celestial -
and a Dire Badger of Ice appeared... Right as the mob of rioters did. | |
Jenny | Slindis | Teri Jenny instantly recoiled when Teri brought up the Dagger, falling over backwards onto the ground as he did. | |
Jenny | Slindis | Teri Slindis looked at the mass of rioters in concern. "Jenny, Teri, we're cut off here. We need to find a position that's more easily defended!" She began leading the group to a household by a forest. It wasn't the best, but it was better than nothing. | |
Jenny | Slindis | Teri In an interesting twist, the oncoming danger seemed to be just the thing needed to get the Cleric back to Reality. Her eyes, although still wet, refocused upon what was before them, and called out, Turning around, the Cleric began to run with her Teacher and Jenny, silently praying that Ice Constructs could not feel pain. This prayer kept going especially after hearing the sound of glass breaking, and the roar of the Badger as it began to tear into the enemies around it... | |
Jenny | Slindis | Teri Slindis looked at the mob coming at them and stood by the entrance of the house. It wasn't in the best condition, but it could help with the defense. "Teri, stay inside and drench them if they get close!" She leapt forward into the crowd, delivering punishing blows to a portion of the crowd and dropping members of the cult as she went. Perhaps a strong first strike would make the horde back off. | |
Jenny | Slindis | Teri "Teri, stay inside and drench them if they get close!"
In the next few moments, Slindis saw two beasts of ice appear, the first being the Badger again, and the second a Wolf. Both charged at the oncoming hoard, and did their best to tear down the forces with the Paladin. However, numbers proved to be difficult, even for the creatures of ice. The Cultists were shouting something that bolstered the spirits of the attackers, and they were not so easily quelled by the Paladin's will to fight back. | |
Jenny | Slindis | Teri She worked with the ice creatures to punch through the attackers, delivering enough damage to begin making a path through to some of the Cultists. However, the attackers that weren't focusing on Slindis and the ice creatures were making their way to the house that Teri was holed up in... | |
Jenny | Slindis | Teri Teri gritted her teeth as she waved her hands, readying her next spell, On cue, the blade of force appeared, and began stabbing at an enemy before the door, it's focus limited. Thus, this prompted the Cleric to pour one of her water bottles out instead, chanting Aquan over it, When the Elemental rose, Teri was give the pleasant surprise of finding that he/it had grown since she had last used him. Now, the elemental was about her size, it being one head taller. Pointing outside, the Cleric watched as her stronger comrade began to bring his bulk down against more attackers, to which the Cultists cried, "Look! Heretical magic! DO NOT ALLOW THESE DEMON WORSHIPERS TO LIVE! BRING DOWN THESE CHILDREN OF THE FALSE PROPHET!" Their words had good effect too, as more began crawling towards the house, and away from Slindis and the weakening ice constructs. They would not last much longer, be it via attack or the spell's duration. Furthermore, in shooting a glance towards her student, Slindis could already see that it would be some time before the Cleric could cast again. But that did not mean the girl was without ideas. Pulling a cross out from her satchel, the girl held up her cross and called out,
The Water Elemental shivered for a moment, and then stood firm again; it's strength increased greatly by Teri's call to arms. With it's renewed vigor, the Elemental brought itself hard against the attackers of it's Mistress... | |
Jenny | Slindis | Teri Slindis looked at the enemies headed towards Teri and chanted to Tira to give her strength then faded from view for a moment, reappearing at the rear of the group headed towards Teri and Jenny. The Gardevoir placed another Reflect barrier, but it would only hold for so long against these numbers.
Although the Paladin was able to knock down quite a few attackers, but the amount of them would prove to be too much if the rest of the group didn't notice the issue here. "Teri, hold for a bit longer and I can get to you!" | |
D.C. Battle Grounds - Beachhead
Spotting Aftan and Akane, she couldn't help but smile as she saw the two move stealthily around the perimeter of the rioters and the soldiers that were attempting to contain them. Angelus | Cadolbolg | Caim | Ton Ton Deciding that flying was too great a risk of being spotted, Cadolbolg landed and started walking along side his mother and father, keeping a distance from them so that they could safely defend themselves if the group ran into any of those cultists that were running amok through the streets of the District of Columbia. However the decidedly slower pace they were taking was not without its cost as Cadolbolg quickly found himself bored and itching for a fight. "Mother... Father... do you think I could go out and play with a few of those 'cultists' that have broken off from the main pack and started looting the local electronics shops?" The Mini-Dragon asked as he stretched his wings that had fallen asleep on him. It was a funny thing that even though he was still moving at a decent pace that matched his parents, his wings weren't used to inactivity for that long. Even in his sleep they would occasionally flutter as he dreamed of soaring through the clouds roasting enemies with fire... though sometimes he dreamed it was lightning. Devon | Ella The sedative that Mark had administered on the Succubus seemed to be helping as she looked a bit more in control of herself, though in control of her body and coherent thought was a totally different thing if you want to get down to the nitty gritty. Looking at Devon, in her drug induced state, she couldn't help but notice the way that he was clutching her protectively. It would have been rather sexy if it weren't for the fact that the sedative had another unpleasant side effect. *BLEEEEECCCCCH* Yup... nausea. Sure it could have been sexy nausea if one into that sort of thing but it was nausea none the less. "uggh... sorry" She said weakly as she tried to wipe a bit that had gotten on Devon's crotch... an action that would have been rather ... erm... comical(?) if it weren't for the fact that it appeared that Devon was dragging around a college aged girl on roofies. "You know... Devon... I think you're sweet... and... I think I really like you... it's... just too bad that mommy said that ... I couldn't... fall for you... she said... that would make me ... a weakling ... like my sister... and... I'm... I'm... sorry about your friend...." Ella blabbed incoherently as she stumbled on the sidewalk. Let this be a lesson to you Devon... never... ever... EVER... let Mark inject an unknown sedative into the girl that you've got feelings for... you might find out things that you don't want to know. Jenny | Lucifer | Slindis | Teri The Fallen one had not quite reached the position where Jenny, Slindis and Teri were in the midst of fighting off a group of doomsday cultists and... I'll be honest... there's a perfectly good explanation for that. The Incarnation of Evil on Earth was currently laying on the sidewalk with a sword sized hole in his stomach, caused by an Angel blade that happened to be laying next to him... still attached to the wielder's detached hand. "How... how... could this... have... happened?" The Prince of Lies thought weakly as he struggled to maintain consciousness, the wound on his stomach refusing to close due to the Blessings that had been placed on the Angelic Weapon. "oh... yeah..." He thought to himself as he remembered the sensation of running... the blissful emotions that had filled his head at the time and had ended up clouding his judgement and his awareness in the end, you see while he was chasing after the one thing in eternity that had, in recent memory, put a huge smile on his face, he had managed to run into an Angel patrol. ---
"HEY YOU! YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE HERE!" The Patrol Captain said as he hadn't yet realized who Lucifer was due to him still being in his true form. "HEY! I'M TALK... WAIT YOU'RE NOT ONE OF US!" The Captain said as it dawned upon him that he was looking at the true face of the Adversary that he had been taught to fear since his creation. "KILL HIM!" The order was given followed by the sound of swords being drawn. "I don't have time for this... you assholes and you don't want to mess with me today." He warned as it dawned upon him afterwards that regardless of what he had said to them, he would have had to kill them anyways for seeing his true form. Cloaking himself back in the darkness that was familiar to him, his Daemon form caused the patrol members to hesitate for a moment, the fear of the Dark Lord of the Pits kicking in for a moment before their courage urged them to destroy the Leader of Hell. ---
"Poor saps..." He thought to himself as he looked at the bodies of the Angels that had been strewn around him... curiously, the scene was free of blood... the Devil's sword having absorbing a patrol's worth of blood as its owner sliced through their ranks. Still... he was wishing ... that... he... had seen ... her... one... more... Kurumu | Melethia | Puce Kurumu laughed at Melethia's idea, not because it was a horrible idea but because it added to much flexibility to their attack. "I could also make some explosives for you to drop on their ranks... or put you in places that they wouldn't expect an attack coming from!" The Succubus said excitedly as she looked at her partner in crime and dismemberment. "Oh... lord... I've created a monster." Puce muttered as he listened in on the conversation. "I can't wait to try some of the stuff we're thinking of out. It sounds like such a riot!" | |
Kyre | Mark Kyre heard words, but she didn't understand then. Rather, she knew what they meant, but she didn't want to understand them. Her heart pounded in fury and the slightest visible wetness stained her emerald eyes. The young anti-mage took a step back and placed a hand on each of her shoulders. "Friends. that is a word I do not believe you privileged to use in regards to me! At least not anymore!" She turned and drew Fang from his sheath and brandished it at Mark, the wetness in her eyes had swelled into tears, "I don't want to hear anything that tells me I can't have what I want! I just want her to be mine, and no one else's. I can't stand the thought of someone else touching her. So don't tell me these things that you know, because I don't want to know them!" ---
BlackHarte | Red Mage "You are no longer a talkative man Red," BlackHarte laughed as he took his hand off of the white-haired mage's forehead. Red Mage was putting on his best baffled expression, and it still failed to convey the amount of confusion he was feeling. BlackHarte sat down in the space next to Red and looked him in the eyes, "Kyre Cwanuld," he said nonchalantly as Red listened from his crystal prison, "I need all the information you can remember gathering on her. Especially anything indicating obsessive possessiveness of people." Red Mage nodded, his voice broken and torn from his throat. A punishment that rendered him unable to call the power of the Chaos Words. But his eyes spoke for him and BlackHarte listened well. | |
D.C. Battle Grounds - Beachhead Mark's first thought would have, up until the point in the forest where she tried to kill him, to be to approach the Anti-Mage and challenge her resolve to kill him. She was upset and that was understandable, the last thing that he wanted to do was do attempt something so drastic as to push her over the edge and bury Talon up to its hilt in the Writer's chest. "Kyre... I understand you're upset and I know why... I've been at that point before where I was obsessive and possessive over someone that I thought that I was meant to be with for eternity. But it just didn't work out and eventually I got over it... but I wish I had gotten over it much sooner than I had. So much time wasted." He explained, hoping that he could somehow tap into a rational part of her brain that could take control. "Sure it'll hurt now..." He started to say as he crouched down to her eye level, "but honestly... I think that you need to find something or someone else that can make you happy. It's not going to be her... I can guarantee that. The road that you're headed down... it's only going to end up with more and more pain for you. You don't want to be in pain do you?" | |
Kyre | Mark "N-no," Kyre replied, putting down her sword, "being in pain is terrible. Awful. But, I'm hurting right now too!" She broke into true tears and replaced Fang into his sheath before grabbing onto Mark's shirt, "What do I do..." she screamed, "I want her, but I don't want to get hurt, but I want her so bad!" She pounded on Mark's chest, "TELL ME WHAT TO DO! I HATE THINKING FOR MYSELF" | |
Airship Rising Dawn - The Bridge "Miss Vermillion, I believe you will now find you have the ability to project yourself as a holographic full colour avatar anywhere in the ship now. Now I will rebut your point. Logically, you are correct. Emotionally, you are not. It is not that I do not see a future here for myself, it is that I do not wish to have a future here. I do not belong, nor do I wish to. As for Akane, don't be startled, but she has an adoptive father, a man called Jack. The Grim Reaper. Another character of mine." Turning back out to look upon the rioting city below he sighed. "As for this ship, her captain is long gone. I can't replace Dillon. I won't either. She is the ship of her crew, and her crew is always changing. Rising Dawn is a lovely ship, but mine she is not and never will be. I don't feel it." D.C. Battle Grounds - Beachhead Aftan | Akane | Gabrielle | David "Who are we moving to support Aftan? I can sense Slindis, Jenny and Teri nearby, Devon and his succubus close by as well in the other direction." | |
Jenny | Slindis | Teri As Slindis started making her slow way back to the house, she heard a deathly rattle from the ice beasts, and saw them being overrun by the crowd, the numbers and brutality bolstered by the Cultists cries for blood. "Kill the heretics!" The group began converging around the house, their efforts to the Paladin obviously not doing nearly as much as they'd like, especially with her temporary incorporeality in place. Thus, the Paladin began to wade back through the crowd in a desperate attempt to reach her student. Speaking of said Cleric, Teri was panicking on account of her ice constructs being demolished, her bolstered water Elemental beginning to fade, and the Reflect Jenny had erected beginning to crack. With nothing offensive available, Teri was silently trying to encourage her last line of defense to stay up just a little longer, Ah, but like any other spell or incantation, the Water Elemental could only blubber unhappily as it began to sink into a puddle on the ground; it's time on this plane ending. As Teri pleaded with the Water Elemental, dark grins appeared behind the wall, and the sound of cracking glass becoming louder and louder. Taking a deep breath, Teri began to get another water bottle from her bag to unleash another Elemental on these forces. If she was to die here, she was not going down without a fight. However, that train of thought was brought to a screeching halt when a humongous grey thing barreled into the forces, knocking rioters high into the air. Another one followed after it from the other direction; this one black, as it too knocked some cultists away, and cleared a path for the Paladin to reach her student. The Cleric's jaw dropped when she realized what had decided to help them... Wolves. Big wolves. | |
Airship Rising Dawn - The Bridge The Holographic Projectors hummed to life for the first time since their creation as the cloaked female A.I. materialized in the middle of the bridge, a smile brightening the visible portions of her face.
D.C. Battle Grounds - Beachhead Aftan chose the later as the choice as to who to support. According what the White Knight was aware of, Devon was not that powerful a fighter and if pushed, the Succubus and the Bard might have a difficult time of things if they were cornered. "I believe that we are most needed with Master Devon as he is not the strongest in a fight where as Slindis will be more than a match for a few cultists." The White Knight reported as she lead Akane towards the Bard and the Succubus. The two paused in an alley for a tense but brief minute as a group of rioters passed by, the sounds of their chanting echoing off the sides of the buildings that surrounded them. "Come... let us hurry lest we be discovered or Master Devon is discovered." Kyre | Mark Mark did the only thing he could do... he let the girl bang on his chest and allowed her to get whatever emotions she was feeling out of her system. It was the best that he could do for her given the circumstances. He knew that Kyre had never stopped in the Pub and that she likely never would and when Puce and Kurumu retired... that was there they would be for quite some time. While it might be a blessing sometimes to know what the future holds for the people that you created... sometimes it was a bloody curse. "Look Kyre... I can't tell you what to do... so you'll have to figure it out for yourself. You're a big girl so you can decide for yourself." The Dramatist said as he reached into his back pocket and produced a handkerchief for the young Anti-Mage, wiping the tears away from the Emerald eyes. "So... what do you think you should do?" | |
D.C. Battle Grounds - Beachhead Devon | Ella Devon continued helping the inebriated Succubus out, rubbing her back to help with the nausea. "Ella, you aren't weak for going against something your mom'd want. It's your life, so it's your choice, okay? Either way, I'll be here for you." The talk was punctuated by the Succubus vomiting on Devon's pants again, and he laughed awkwardly as he wiped it off. "Yup, even if ya do that again. It's pretty easy to clean up, anyway." Sure, having vomit on his pants wasn't the most pleasant thing, but after going through Hell and the gauntlet of multiple people from Eberron that would rightfully want him dead and making it through? There wasn't much that could out awkward that. Jenny | Lucifer | Slindis | Teri When the wolves popped up, Slindis smiled mentally. She finally had some help here! The large grey one somehow seemed to know what the Paladin was planning and the two worked to scatter the Cultist's ranks with the Paladin proving to be extremely difficult to hit. Within a short amount of time, the two wolves left the forces in disarray, ripping out throats and tearing out the guts of the hapless cultists with terrifying force before letting out loud howls to celebrate their victory. "Teri, are you alright?" She was clearly concerned, but something about the large grey wolf felt familiar... Kurumu | Melethia | Puce Melethia's eyes gleamed. "What about small electrical bombs to fry the group, Skyhair? Or some Flashbangs while we gut them? Ooh, maybe we can combine the compounds..." She was clearly getting into the plans as well and turned to Puce. "Hey, why should we fight fair? As Mister Cage'd say, that's for suckers or people not smart enough to make things work for them! After all, we've got the stuff, so why not?" | |
A young teenage boy probably around 15 was standing in the middle of a street. He had no clue where he was or how he had gotten there, but he could hardly see a thing because of the darkness. For Some reason there was no moon out. The boy felt scared and alone as he took in his surroundings. There were houses on either side of the street. The strange thing was there were no side streets so he could either go forward or back. As he stood there frightened he swore he heard something in the darkness. At first it was just murmuring sounds, but eventually he could make out a few words. "Failure....", "Disgrace!", were just some of the few words that were spoken. That's when he saw... it. It appeared to be a 12 year old boy at first, but with more inspection you could see that the boy was so skinny he might as well been a walking corpse. He had burn marks all over his body and he was missing teeth. But the worst part to the boy were the eyes. The thing had cat like eyes, but the iris was completely red while the rest of the eye was a jet black. Just then he could hear the whispers get louder and saw that there were more small boys climbing out of the houses all oaky approaching him. He then felt the ground shake and turned around to see the ground split open. There was a black smoke and darkness that billowed out and seemed to infect the ground and air turning them both pitch black. He saw more of the things from before emerging from the crack. That's when he turned tail and ran. Running as fast as he could be go about 20 to 30 feet before he stopped. Another crack had opened up in the ground. He turned left and saw nothing. Then he turned right and saw an open door. He quickly dashed inside and closed the door behind him. Only to have the windows shatter only moments later. He ran to the second floor of the building, and ran into a bedroom quickly closing the door behind him. He backed up to the window while the creatures banged on the door. That's when he saw a shadow figure just phase through the door and slowly walk towards him. He began to panic looking for a way out but he saw none. When the shadow got so close he could hardly stand it the shadow whispered "you are a failure..." It the hit him in the chest on sent him flying through the window towards the pitch black ground.... AA World D.C. Battle Grounds. Shadow could faintly hear the wind in his ears as he slowly woke up. That's when he heard a voice demand WAKE UP! Shadow quickly jerked his eyes open to find himself falling through the air at an alarming pace. He was had barely enough time to ajust himself so he didn't land head first. He hit the ground and cause the earth around him to crack and break. Any broken bones he might have had quickly healed and he stood up. He quickly checked to see what weapons he has as he gazed at his surroundings. Was there a mass riot? There sure were a lot of crazy people about. He then realized e had his favorite sniper, a glock, a M4, and... wait he was missing something..... Just the he looked up to see someone falling strait towards him who he easily caught. He instantly recognized the person as Taytum and have her a curious look behind his helmet. Just then he heard "Kill the heretic!" It was then be noticed he was surrounded... "Taytum... transform..." Was all he said as he went to ingage any enemies nearby out of pure bloodlust. | |
Airship Rising Dawn - The Bridge He turned to look her in the eyes, his fierce blue meeting her Vermillion. "It is a good thing I am not your master then. He and I are quite different. And I cannot fault you on your logic of defining me as Captain. For now, I'm stuck with the job, eh?" he grinned ferally, showing the AI she had one thing right. D.C. Battle Grounds - Beachhead | |
D.C. Battle Grounds - Beachhead Jenny | Lucifer | Slindis | Teri Teri's jaw remained firmly at the floor when she saw the sheer brutality that the wolves were capable of, and shivered when she saw the pair of them approach; blood still dripping from their jaws. The Grey one immediately took a familiar approach to Slindis, as it nosed her side gently, almost like a puppy demanding her attention. The black wolf, although about a foot smaller in both height and length, was still imposing in it's size over the young author; only stared at the girl as it's alpha (at least, Teri assumed it was it's alpha) tried to get Slindis' attention. That was when Teri noticed that the wolf was bleeding from it's snout, a cut no doubt from the attack on the rioters. Even if the wolf looked scary, she gave it a little bow, and said, Raising a shaky hand, Teri concentrated healing energies into her palm, and only touched the wolf with her fingertips; the wound closing up simply and easily. The wolf blinked a little in confusion, and looked to the larger wolf as a private to their commander for prompting. | |
Airship Rising Dawn - The Bridge "I would hardly call seeking your own end a step forward, sir." The A.I. stated simply sensing that it was time to change the topic. "Yes, Jake. You are the current Captain of the ship and as such you should strive to be an example to the crew should you not?" D.C. Battle Grounds - Beachhead Ella looked up at Devon for a moment... smiling as she did as her eyes sparkled. Whether it was from tears of happiness at hearing Devon speak the words that he did or realizing that she didn't have to always follow her mother's words, there was a moment of clarity in Ella's eyes. "You're too kind to me, Devi. I ... I... but how do you go against the words of your mother? She gave me life... she fed me... taught me everything I know... she kept me safe from the daemon that came for me..." The succubus stated as they reached a bench just out of sight of the National mall and seated herself in it. "I ... I have to tell you something... your friend... the cleric... she..." She stopped as she saw Aftan and Akane approaching their position. "I'll tell you later" The Devil's Daughter said as she greeted the White Knight and the Kitsune. Jenny | Lucifer | Slindis | Teri He wasn't dead yet... that was probably a good thing... but he was still in an assload of pain. They say that one of the worst ways to die is a wound to the belly. It allows all those nice digestive fluids and waste products into your abdomen. Think of it as bathing your insides in shit and gastric acid. Even though he wasn't dead, he was still far from mobile but he was starting to feel cold... a sign of blood loss. He was losing his connection with the world... even the amulet that he had given Our Dear Little Cleric seemed as if it was light years away he could barely sense it... but when he did catch little snippets of what she was feeling... he discovered that she was under a tremendous amount of stress. "Come on... old man... let's go..." Lucifer said to himself as he picked himself off the ground only to fall back down... not the most distinguished position that the Morning Star had found himself in during his life. ---
The Fallen One charged the group of Angels head on, his sword drawn and calling out for the blood of the Devil's adversaries. *CLANG!!! PWING!!!* The Black sword had sliced through the air to meet a Heaven forged blade and neatly sliced through the very same blade, sensing the sword shard flying though the air as The Beast of the Pits' used the momentum from his opening swing to bring his sword behind him to guard against an attack that came from behind while his boot came up and connected with an Angelic Solar Plexus, robbing one of one of his attackers of air before the attacker was robbed of his life with a simple twist of the neck. A quick death was the least that the Lord of Darkness could give his former brethren. "Sorry. Wrong place at the wrong time." He muttered as he took out the second of the five members of the Angel Scouting Patrol, the Black Blade burying itself in the Angel's chest piercing his heart and snuffing out the life behind the victim's eyes. It was at that point that things started going wrong... a vision of a massive wave of rioters closing in on Jenny, Slindis and Teri rushed into the Archdaemon's head as the amulet dutifully reported to its creator. A moment's distraction was all that was needed as the Patrol leader plunged the blade of his sword into Lucifer's gut. "AUUUUGH!!!"" The Fallen one yelled in pain as he lashed out with his blade... taking the hands of the Patrol leader before taking his head as well. ---
The Prince of Lies still fought against the cursed forces of gravity and unable to come up with the strength in his arms he started doing something he never thought he would see himself doing... he started crawling towards where he sensed Teri was. Kurumu | Melethia | Puce Puce shook his head. "No.. I'm not complaining about a fair fight or anything like that. I'm just thinking that you two are going to be battle field terrors... but I think you're gonna have some stiff competition if what I saw in Cadolbolg's eyes is any indication of things to come. He's pretty dead set in being as good a warrior as Caim and Angie combined." Puce said causing Kuru to laugh. "That mini-dragon? He's too much of a sweetheart. He's always been a good kid... dumb as a doorknob but still a sweetkid." The Succubus said as she turned back towards Melethia. "How about sticky bombs combined with an immolation chemical. They'll be stuck in place and burn... unable to get to any source of water." The Succubus said thinking of other combinations they could use. "Or... an metal oxydizer... equipment'll just fall apart in seconds. It'll help when we need to capture some people alive." | |
D.C. Battle Grounds - Beachhead Jenny | Lucifer | Slindis | Teri Slindis looked at the wolf for a few moments, trying to figure out where she knew it before she saw a small speckled pattern on his left forepaw that she'd seen a long time ago. "...Lupito? You made it out of there?" She approached the wolf before it pounced on her and started licking her on the face. To most others observing it would look like an attack, but it was more a sign of affection that showed the black wolf that it was fine to approach Teri. "You really grew up on me, didn't you? ...II'm so glad to have you back. But how did you find me?" | |
Airship Rising Dawn - The Bridge He was used to commanding, both online and offline. | |
D.C. Battle Grounds - Beachhead He rubbed the Succubus' back as he continued to talk to her on the bench. "I know, it's not easy. But you can become your own person. If she really loves you unconditionally, she'd be happy with you taking whatever path you want. And as I keep telling you time and time again, I'll be here for you, Ella. I know that it's hard for you to see, but you really are an amazing person." The Bard hugged Ella before seeing Akane and Aftan approach and waved casually to them. "Good to see you again, Aftan and Akane. What brings you here?" Devon seemed unusually calm for the chaos in the area around them. Kurumu | Melethia | Puce She got an impish grin "What about a corrosive salt that absorbs the water out of the bodies? Mainly a contact thing, but it's something that wreaks havoc on 'em. It's also really flammable..." The two continued to bounce ideas off each other, each one more effective at taking the enemy out than the last. | |
Airship Rising Dawn - The Bridge Jenny | Lucifer | Slindis | Teri | Wolves The black wolf relaxed upon seeing it's alpha act so lax around the other two-legged creature, and decided that this creature must have been the pup of the group. She was so small, and shaky. She had to be; given how fiercely the Female-Alpha looked after her. Thus, the black wolf brought it's snout down, and gave a happy whine when the girl began to scratch around it's head. Teri laughed at this, She thought for a moment as she pet the white areas around the wolf's snout, and nodded, The wolf only stared at the girl, but it did not object to the title. This made the Cleric laugh again, and more petting ensued, As the notion of hellhounds entered and left her mind, Teri was reminded of what she had been trying to flee moments ago; and frowned faintly, As she continued that thought, a sense of dread filled her stomach, and she began to notice... A tugging? What was this?

Shadow walked away from a pile of mutilated bodies whistling gleefully. He began to search around looking for any members of the Rising Dawn so they could fill him in on the situation. He knew they were there because wherever trouble is they somehow seem to find it. | |
D.C. Battle Grounds - Beachhead | |
Airship Rising Dawn - The Beachhead Jenny | Lucifer | Slindis | Teri | Wolves Lupito finally finished licking Slin's face and looked at the other wolf, giving a small yip to signal to Garm that he'd be working with them now as he walked with Slindis over to Teri. "Teri, is it one of the people you put the Status spell on? We'll all move together this time to find the injured person." Slindis stroked the massive wolf that was up to her shoulders, remembering that he'd barely gone up to her calf the last time she'd seen him. Akane | Aftan | Devon | Ella | |
Jenny After taking a moment to compose herself after nearly getting killed by a huge mob which was then killed my Lupito and Garm, Jenny was now watching Teri and Slindis get to know their new/old pets. David/Rugal David chuckled when Gabrielle stated she was his support. | |
Airship Rising Dawn - The Bridge While the ship seemed to not move at all underneath Jake, his perspective of the world did as the Airship maneuvered itself into position as per his orders. The weapons however were plenty loud as the Missile Turrets and Plasma Cannons whirred into position.
D.C. Battle Grounds - Beachhead Ella looked up from where she was sitting and nodded, her head already clearing up from the sedative that Mark had administered earlier to help her calm her mind down. "Yeah... I'm ready to go and sure... I think sticking it out with these two would be good." She stated as she picked herself up off the bench. "So... where are we headed. It looks like those rioters are on their way towards the Capital Building." The Succubus said as scanned the area. "Maybe we can blend in with and get to where we need to be safely." Jenny | Lucifer | Slindis | Teri The sound of approaching feet is the sound that caused the Devil to lift his head off the ground as he spotted two ... dogs? ... walking towards him. "What an undignified way to go." He muttered to himself as he tried to muster enough energy to at least put up a good defense... of course it was all pretty useless as he didn't seem to have enough strength to crawl any further. Whatever happened... he hoped it was as quick as he had made it for that Angel patrol. ---
The Morning Star's stomach burned as the Blessing that had been placed upon the weapon went about doing what it had been designed to do... that is cause as much damage to an unclean soul as possible. He had seen the effects of such weapons on the other rebellious Angels that had been foolish enough to follow him against the Boss. Ripping the blade out of his stomach, Lucifer lashed out with a gout of hellfire. The fire, far hotter than the surface of the sun, consumed the poor Patrol Leader quickly enough, leaving only a mass of ash where a living being once stood. "Two more." Lucifer said the two remaining Angels were the ones that were giving him the most trouble. One would defend against Lucifer's attack while the other one attacked. It would have been a great strategy on their part had they been facing someone else but they were facing an Archdaemon and not only that... the one who had been responsible for the great Rebellion. Mustering up the last bit of his strength The Morning Star delivered a fatal punch to the neck of the 4th Angel before delivering a strike that almost cut the last of the Angel's in half. Before falling down to the ground where he stood. ---
Looked up at the dogs that were probably going to make a mess of thing Lucifer saw a trio running towards him... a smile crossing his face as he passed out as he realized that one of them was Teri. | |

Lucifer | Slindis | Teri | Jenny
After getting over herself at the sight of Lucifer, Jenny took a moment to figure out what the FUCK was going on, While she had seen strange things happen before, She couldn't have believed what happened if she hadn't seen it herself.
Attempting to detect any feeling in the air was hard even for her, There was so many coming from Teri.
Still, once Slindis took off, she was in pursuit after them, not wanting to get cut off from everyone.
Besides, how the hell else would she understand what just happened?
She stopped before taking another glance at the fallen one and stated "That look suits you better....whatever you are..."
Before the Prince of Lies could answer, she was off after the others.
