The Void cancels all things happening to it.

"You are an annoyance to True Justice... Good thing that I'm in a good mood... You are spared from the Void...for now."

The HTB Cannon powers down.

lilah was still unsure about it but the giant robots had realy scared her

After teleported to safety, Regulus shows Lilah what the group is doing at this moment.
"Look, Lilah.
This is what would hath become of thee if thee were to join them.
Behold the hostility they show towards one another. Join them, and thou would surely perish."

OoC: Infighting is achieved: The Chaos Gods are amused. xP

OOC: Oh really? Well take this!

I'm about to go off on Drom again when I see Laguna. 'Can't get distracted by one failure.' I remind myself. I don't say anything to the lizard and instead walk over to Laguna. I sit down slowly. "Don't feel so bad man. We all failed this one. I just feel bad for that girl..." I say sadly.

OoC: @Nailik: RPing my role as Anti-Hero, you did nothing....

"Everybody, Shut Up! This is not helping. We need to find Regulus. I'll deal with him, so he can't harm anyone else ever again."

EMily and Winona walked over to Laguna. She placed her hands on his shoulders.

"Laguna." She addressed him with force, "Stop beating yourself, you won't get anywhere by doing that. I know this has been difficult trying to act as a group leader. But you have GOT to stick with us. My sister, Sara, who acted as my sibling's leader always said that 'we have to try smarter, not harder.' You have to keep going. I know you're a smart person, but you'll lose it if you keep sobbing."

Roland followed her, and ran into a nearby building.
"Oh, god, Ferdinand's mad..."
He pauses, "But why? I never head of why Ferdinand would ever get mad."

Ferdinand stands for a moment, and colapses.
"I loved her! I love her! Somehow, I feel in love with her! And now, I lost her! Before I even got to know her! She has sucumbed to evil!"
He sends a message, I only wanted to help. I only...

Discord flies into the middle of the group, "Well, this is rather entertaining. I have to admit regulus is rather good at creating Discord, as he is doing RIGHT NOW!"

Discord sends this entire post to Lilah.

Charlotte turns to Jio. "You should have done this in the beginning, right when Erica turned to Regulus..."

The IS stomps away

OOC: Damn, meant to have AEanna push between the two to break up the fight, have a little moment where Dromaeus decides calms down because of it, then have her go to help Laguna. Oh well...

AEanna had only come through in time to see Regulus and the others disappear, but now she decided to try and help sort out the chaos. romaeus and Tanner surprisingly broke up their impending fight before she got to them, so she continued and followed Tanner to Laguna instead.

"Regulus's meddling is not your fault, Laguna." she assured him. "You have done so much for everyone here, but he cannot be dealt with through diplomacy. The only way now is to destroy him."

Laguna looked up at EMily. "I'm not trying to lead anyone. I'm just trying to keep everyone on the straight and narrow. But all the traitors, the mind control, Chaos, Regulus, Char and Laura acting different, all of it... I'm not doing a good job, am I?" He turned to AEanna. "But what if Erica's still in there? I couldn't live with fighting another freind."

OoC: Laguna started angsting.
LAGUNA.
STARTED.
ANGSTING.
Shit just got real.

OoC: Laguna is broken: The Chaos Gods are amused. :D
Pity Ven isn't here.

"I didn't have the Soul Gem, then. All I would have done is trap him in my own mind." He yelled at the IS pilot as she walked away.

OoC: Oddly, every time I type in soul I end up writing in sould and have to fix that in the end, before I post it.
@wacky Okay, now you're just forcing ships for the sake of forcing them.

@Slenn: You could have EMily and Winona tell Laguna about the IS girls situation....XD

Charlotte comes stomping back, ignoring Jio. They are all incompetent fools... But they are our friends... Yeah, Friends that woun't ever learn about our situation...

"If not for you, we may have been lost already. I know I would." AEanna said to Laguna. "And you know what? I do not believe that she is there any more. She was a friend, or so I thought, but the way she reappeared after we beat Regulus, only to... well, I suspect that she may just have been a facade after all, just as he assured us."

Rose just shrugged at Roland and held him close.

Kidd got close to Lilah and tried to reassure her, "There, there. You've got us now. And we're gonna do our best to make sure those others don't hurt'cha."

@Wacky: I agree with Salty, that seemed pretty forced.

"Laguna, all of us share at least some responsibility for what has passed. The Chaos and the others are only posing new threats to us and everyone's abilities and roles. We must all face at least one difficult challenge in our lives that deals punishment to our morale. You are merely experiencing one of those challenges. You must realize that you can overcome it. Those that survive become vastly stronger, and I know you can."

Nailik:
OoC: Laguna is broken: The Chaos Gods are amused. :D

OOC: You are...far too good at this...you really are.

"Alright, could someone explain who Erica is?" I ask finally.

OOC: @Rosh, you mean like the thing that you had secret for EMily and Winona?

"Laguna, Char and Laura are a part of something completely different now. They now have a direct connection with an omnipotent power that controls them. You are not responsible for their current condition any more than I am. If anyone is to stand in their way, or their GOD's way, that person will be destroyed."

@Slenn: Yup..... this will be interesting to see...

OoC: Actually, didn't you notice the fact he cried halfway through? He cried? See? It just sorta happened with him. I have no idea how the hell it did, in truth. I'm sorry if it feels forced.

Ferdinand stops crying.
_{I can't... I can't do anything. I'm stuck. I've failed...}
He walks off, cane in hand with a heavy heart.

Roland holds Rose, "I just hope he doesn't destroy Charlotte and Laura. He seemed pretty mad.

Discord flies around the group, and snaps his fingers, and disappears in a puff of bright light.

"No. You can handle yourself, I know it. I just gave you a little pick-me-up. And I'm sure Erica is still in there, but that might just be me seeing what I want to see." He looked over at EMily. "I've been through a lot, trust me, but this is something else. I just dont want anyone to get hurt, but looking at all this, I dont know what to do. I messed up, and now someone else is paying for it."

OOC: You are...far too good at this...you really are.

OoC: It's a dirty job, but someone has to do it. :)
PS: I don't think you've mentioned that my char is a jerk yet.

OOC: Edited my last post.

"Erica was... I really do not know. We thought she was a Dark Soul who had escaped her brethren, who could not stand their evil ways, and allied with us. She was... a good friend. And then she became Regulus. I am starting to think that she always was Regulus, just concealed it to earn our trust." Aeanna said to Tanner before looking back to Laguna.

"Dromaeus would likely have killed me if not for you. Not only that, but I probably couldn't have held together until then without your counsel. You do not give yourself enough credit, and torment yourself for things that are beyond your control."

Jio walks over to Laguna. "I don't know if Erica is still in there, but it is being to look like we don't have a choice. Regulus is too dangerous to be left alone. We have to stop him. I can do so without killing him using this Soul Gem. It might give us a chance to save Erica."

OoC: @Wacky Sorry, but that's just my opinion.

OOC: @Rosh, What else was there in that revelation that I missed? There was the Void energy and... something else?

The IS girls hear EMily spill the information. The massive IS sits down. "Well, it was going to come out eventually..."

OoC: @Slenn: That will come with combat against them later.....[grin]

"I hope so too. That would make Momma really sad to see them go." Rose said to Roland.

Four was back at camp, poking Mia to get a response out of her.

I lie back. "Oi, this is heavy..." I don't know who to talk to first. Maybe I should have everyone take number...

OOC: *sigh* Really? ......

OoC: @Slenn: A DnD style kill... Constitution Drain! Reach zero, and you die! Lovely^_^... Why else do you think they are rather hostile towards everybody? They don't want them to get hurt by them....>_>

Laguna looked at Jio and AEanna. "You guys have no idea what your talking about. AEanna, to be honest, if the vampirism thing is tormenting you this much, maybe you would be better off dead. And Jio, they are the same person, aren't they? We can't do anything to one without affecting the other. I cant do that, and I'm afraid of what I'll do to anyone else that tries."

OoC: Yeah. I have to admit, it felt a fair bit forced, but still

Ferdinand sits at his desk.
"Why... why did I fail."
We told you you would.
"Shut up. I'm not in the mood."
You said you would serve us, and so we gave you power. You will continue with your work.
Ferdinand sighed, "Alright. Don't see any other choice."

Roland sighes, "I think that the battle is over."
He walks to the camp, where Doctor Com is pacing.
"He... he shipped himself... how the hell did he do that? how did it happen? How..."

OOC: o_O What? Constitution drain? (I've played DnD, but I've never heard of that.)
And no one bats an eye at this revelation?
