" hey Cara, come on over Elina&Veronica
!" Vespa becconed.
Jalan turned to see alexia following.
Cara said hi to Veronica and Elina.
Then turns to lok at Shade, "wishfull thinking but no."
Shade grinned "One should never lose hope."
Iemara looked at Elina. "You've been awfully quite Elina. What's on your mind?"
Elina blinks
Alexia waves at Jalan "I'm coming with you."
Cara waves goodbye to Alexia.
A woman in the underworld walks up to Jalan. "You are not suppose to be here. You must die."
veronica says" cara i feel like an out cast imma leave for a while"....
Elina blinks again and looks at Iemara and says nothing. *I am so confused, but why.*
Elina ponders to herself.
"Elina, what's wrong?" Iemara asks again concerned. She knew that something was up.
Elina looks over and says "I have been having a strange feeling don't know what it is but give me time to think and I will tell you soon enough."
Iemara nods and still was concerned.
*
Alexia makes the woman fly off her feet and crash to the ground. "Don't you touch him!"
A blond young woman enters the group of the remaining people.
*
The woman gets up from the crash and looks at who threw her. "Alexia!"
Iemara looks at the girl 'Another weirdo!Just when you think you've seen it all . . .'
Shade scratches his head "When you go into the underworld you're not supposed to come out. Where are all these people coming from??"
Azufel stands up and walks towards the newcomer. "Are you supposed to be dead?"
" I understand Veronica. Every time any one tryes to do sometihng, Cara shoots it down. None of us can get anywhere, so we all feel like outcasts. You, me, Alexia, Iemara..." Vespa said to Veronica quietly.
Cara turns and looks at Vespa sharply, "Don't you DARE put Alexia in a catagory with YOU. You think you know all lot of things don't you? You do not know people like Alexia and me. We're different. You don't understand us at all. We are who we are and nothing else. I DO NOT shhot things down. You have a suggestion....say somthing. If not KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT. Azufel watching over you or not, if you cross the line you shall pay accordingly. Understand?"
Jalan looked at Alexia, "A, you should not have come, B, why am I not surprised you this woman you tryed to kill me? and C, I can handle myself."
Azufel shook his head. "Everybody please calm down. Let's get out of this place, before more of us walk into the underworld, okay? I fear the others won't get back here alife, so there's no use waiting. Let's move on."
Azufel looked at every single member of the chaotic party. He sighed. If this party would constantly be changing this could be a long trip.
"Cara, how far till we reach the temple?"
Rewn wandered into the area, coming from deep within the Underworld, dropping a large reflective sheild and running a hand through his short white-blonde hair. "Where am I now? Who are you people? I seem to be lost..." His piercing blue eyes wandered the sights of the surrounding people, learning the area.
Vespa's eyes narowed. She rounded on Cara " I dont need to hide behinde Azufel. " she said with a startling calm." but Alexia said herself that she felt outcastish. she even admited that she did the stunt with her brother to gain atention.and I HAVE MADE SUJESTIONS!" she was angry now. " I made the sejestion that we traveld in an easyer world to travel in to get to the temple. I took us there with my braclet, but before i could explain how it worked, you erased my magic. you are such a hypocrite. you yelled at imeara and i for being powerfull when you boast of your powerfulness like you feed off it! this is about Elina not us, and now we all almost forgot about her." she waves her hand to Elina. she collected herself. " you can try to kill me if you want. but i cant die."
Rewn looked over to Jalan, licking his lips and looking the figure up and down a bit, smirking. "And who might this be?" he said, moving a bit closer. He looked over to Alexia, stopping dead in his tracks, a fearfull and surprised look on his face. He dropped to one knee and bowed. "I am sorry your majesty, Aylia, I did not see you there. Forgive me for laying my eyes upon you." He lowered his head further, closing his eyes.
Iemara stared at Rewn. "Shade's right. What's with all these living people in the Underworld?" she didn't wait for an answer, intending it to be retoric, and walked over to Vespa, placing a comforting hand on her arm. "Don't worry. We know at least that the two of us are going to help Elina. We really didn't have anything to gain in helping her in the first place but we still wanted to. I'm sure that even if it wasn't their intention to begin with, some of the others are now purposed with helping Elina as well." She stretched then looked at Vespa with a strange look in her eyes and whispered so only she could hear. "Let's go and have a sparing match. Not enough action lately and I'm afraid I'm getting rusty. The others had their fun early before you came."
Rewn breathed deeply in his bowed position, not moving at all, his eyes stayed tightly closed.
"Fine! You know what, fuck all of you! New guy Kill me now! PLEASE!" Alexia screams.
Cara looks over, "Where did that come from? You cant leave! I'll be alone with all these freaks!!"
Cara looks Rewn over, "Who are you?"
Rewn keeps his head down, speaking softly. "Your majesty, do you really wish for me to do that?" He fidgets a bit, turning more toward Cara. "I am Rewn. I have come from the underworld. Your presense helped me find my way out, and I am forever gratefull." He holds out a small blue vail. "Please take this gift as a token of my graditude. It will heal any wound. Any wound. Instantly.."
Azufel scratched his head "Alexia is your queen? O dear... Alexia please tell me this isn't one of your jokes to get attention..."
Rewn opened his eyes, looking down still. "Alexia? There is no Alexia. That is Aylia, queen of the damned. Ruler of the vampiric ones. My queen. My master." He bowed further down, his nose almost touching the ground now. He held out the vail to Cara.
Azufel shrugged "Well, don't break your neck bowing or anything."
Shade looked at the newcomer with suspicion. There indeed were lots of living in the world of the dead. And they all are really strange too, as if the party wasn't weird enough already. And now this Rewn claims Alexia to be somebody else, some queen of the damned? 'Well, I wouldn't have any problems damning her to hell allright, but still...'
Cara accepts the veil. "No she is not trying for attention. She is the Queen. I would have told ya but you didn't seem to care so yea..and No Shade you can't kill what is already dead...sorry." turns, "Thank you Rewn."
Koyrn smiles and walks over, "Well since we all seem to want to be conndemed to the underworld I might as well bow to the peer pressure and do the same." The small fox spirit smled at Rewn and bowed for Alexia a.k.a Aylia.
"You can stop bowing now." said Alexia
Shade grins at the bowers and sarcasticly asks: "So, how does the grass taste?"
At the same moment he thinks 'Stop reading my mind you wench' knowing that Cara would hear him.
" WHAT!?" Vespa looked shaken. " the Vampire queen was killed ages ago. I saw her dead..." her mind raced. could it be that she was....no it couldnt, this all had to be a hoax
"Alexia being a ruler doesn't necessarilly have to mean she's a queen." Azufel says. He looks around, Alexia did seem to attract the dead. The borders of the path were bended slightly towards her, as if the dead wanted to go to her.
He sighed "I'm getting enough of this place of the dead, let us hurry up a bit."
He raised his hands and a white flash surrounded everybody, after it seemingly fell from the sky. Then there was this feeling of being lifted up and being put down at the same time. When their eyes adjusted and the effects of the blinding white lights, it became visible they had left the path of the dead, to stand at the end of it. A few hundred meters away were the high cliffs with the path running straight through them, the path they had just left.
"Ah, open air and no dead to be seen." Azufel says "Makes things look slightly more, alive, doesn't it?"
Iemara looks at Vespa. "Sucks to be you! Glad I'm not a vampire or anything dammed!"
Rewn had been taken with them during the transportation, falling over just before he was going to stop bowing. He layed on his back, propped up by his elbows, looking the people over, eyes squinted a bit. He looked at Shade. "If you'd really like to know how grass tastes I can make you taste it. I, having never eaten it, would never know." He smiled, his eyes trailing back to Alexia.
"How the hell am I THE Queen? I am A Queen. I'm confused. Why didn't i know this?"
Cara looks over, "I guess you didn't read the job description. anyway that is the temple."
INFRON OF THEM WHAT A PAL PALACE, THE NORTH AND SOUTH WINDS RACING OVER IT. I SEEMED TO BE MADE PURELY OF DIAMONDS AND LIGHT.
"Oh yea...I forgot to tell ya something. Um..Elina...Your pure of heart and all that jazz right?" asks Cara as she stares at the slayer who is watching them.
"uh-huh. why?"
"In order to go in we must sacrifice some one pure of heart..."
"Ahhhhhh."
A slayer runs to the group preparing to kill someone.
Alexia freezes her with her mind and crushes her heart. They all watch her crash to the ground dead. "Slayers are pure of heart arn't they?"
Cara nodded," Yep." looks at Elina "Too bad...."
Rewn watched the action, a wide grin spread across his face. "That was fun. Can I kill the next one? Please, your majesty?" He sat up, collecting the shield that had been released from his grip.
"I guess. If you wish."
Rewn stood up, bending over and dusting his torn grey pants off, chains rattling. He picked up his shield, walking over to stand behind Cara. "Great."
Elina takes a deep breath and feels relief and was glad that it wasn't her that had to be sacrificed.
"What kind of temple is this?" Azufel asks, in shock. "What temple would demand a sacrife of somethig pure good to get in? It doesn't make any sense."
Shade looked at the dead slayer. "Couldn't you at least let him suffer slightly more? It looked so dull. First he stops, then he falls over. Why didn't we chop his head of? At least you can stake the head and take it as a trophee."
"First, Shade, it was a SHE not a He and if you wish to place her head on a stake go for it. Whatever floats your boat man. anyway, this temple Azufel isn't exactly a 'holy' temple, it's quite evil. Someone lives here, the only person I know that could help us get rid of Elina and then help the rest of you people. Okay? Good. Lets continue."
Alexia listens to Cara. "Alright now can we go?" she complains.
"Yes, this way." said Cara and she walked thru the two big gates.
Shade shrugged. "Chopping the head of now ain't any fun. Besides, will this evil person like you slaying his slayers. Aren't they supposed to slay instead of being slain?"
Azufel was annoyed by Shade's stupid remarks. Plus he didn't like the idea of an evil temple one bit. He'd have to see what exactly was done there, he might have to return here later if it really was evil. Then he followed through the gates.
Cara walked up to the two gaurds on duty. She swiftly grabbed one, slammed him down and then broke his neck. She then granbbed hold of the other and flung him off the side of the cliff. "We can go in now." she said and walked up to the door and knocked.
A man with brown hair and claer eyes opened it. "Mistress Cara!"
"Hello Kay. These are...well..I guess they are sort of maybe my friends...anyway I am here to see Cyan."
The man Kay lead them into a waiting area. The room had whits reflective floors and vast blood-red carpets. The walls were inlaide with silver and gems. Abouve them, comming down from a chaine in a massive dome was a huge beautiful chandelaire made of Diamonds.
Cara looked around and smiled at the color of the carpets.
Azufel looked around and sniffed. It had too much decorations. The guy who lived here either had a hang for kitch of was a show-off.
When Shade walked in his eyes went wide open. He walked around confused, like in shock, shaking his head. After he'd walked around the room a few times he yelled out "It's too light!!"
Dark tentacles came out of his body when he stood there screaming. Waves or darkness were sent into the white chamber. The white floor turned black as if ink was purged into a white flued. Mirrors and some gems broke. The diamond chandelier began giving a evilish red glow.
When all of this was done, the room was much darker and Shade stood straight again, mouth shut but grinning "Much, much better. Plus black suits evil better. Tell your guy Cyan it's a good change from his bright saloon. It gave headaches."
Alexia looks around. "I like it. Kind of cozy."
"Cyan likes the color white. He'll be mad you changed it....not that I care." said Cara.
"Let him be mad" Shade says "I'm not going to walk around in that ugly rooms of his just because of that girl Elina. When we're going he can have his color back."
Azufel didn't like this color either, but he preferred it over the blinding white. At least now all the gems and silver wasn't very visible. He saw a few benches standing around a table in the middle of the rooms, on the carpets which hadn't been changedb y Shade, and he sat down.
"Okay I'm bored. What are we doing?" Alexia asks.
Iemara wandered close to Elina. She didn't trust Cyan for a moment and had a feeling he might try something funny. "Stay close ok Elina?" she whispered.
Elina nods and follows.
Vespa took up the rear of the Imara group, feeling thouroughly pissed off
"Does this Cyan always let his guest wait this long?" Azufel asks "Even my patience is limited."
"Appear already DAMMIT!!!!" Alexia screams
"I for once agree with the wench." Shade says. "Where is this supposed host of ours?"
"If you werent a shadow she'd kick your ass." said Cara, half amused.
Cyan walks in wearing a colorless robe, followed buy four gaurd, three knights and about twelve servents. "Who are you? and what do you want, I'm a buisy man."
"Yea right." said Cara, laughing when she saw that he remembered her.
"Hi Cara. What made you come back? Have finaly gone insane?"
"Infortunatly not. They need help blah blah blah i'd be nice if you'd help blah blah blah so yea."
"Pathetic." Alexia sighs.
"So who the hell are you again?"
"You are a bastard Cyan." Iemara spat angrily.
Elina leans against a wall in fear of his appearence. *holy sh##*
" I need no ones help." Vespa spat. " I am here to help you. however it seemes that you are to much of a stuck up bitch cara to accept it, so i am leaving. i dont give a rats ass. I am sorry Azufel." with that she was gone
"What is it with you people!?" Azufel shouts. "Be normal for a change! Cyan please give them what they want so we can all leave. Then this entire nonsense will be over."
Elina stares into nothingness.
Cyan smiled, "I will give you whatever wish...at a price. What DO you want?"
"Elina wants to go back to her world, Azufel wants his 'feathers' back or something, Shade wants power and I don't know about the rest." said Cara.
"Very well. Follow me into another room and we will disscus what you will give me in return."
Cara, Kezka, Azufel, Alexia, Elina, Half-ling, Rewn, Iemara, and everyone else followed him into another room.
"Each of you step forward and state what you wish and why." said Cyan.
"Go on." said Cara to the group.
Shade didn't move a muscle. "Who ever said I wanted something from this guy? I don'teven know what he has to offer."
Azufel shakes his head and doesn't move as well. "I don't take gifts from evil people. Sorry. I have my principles."
"What I want you can not give me, and even if you could it would not be worth the price I am sure. I am only remaining here to ensure Elina gets home safely then I shall take my leave." Iemara said coldly.
"I just want to go home to my own WORLD thank you very much. And please stop wasting our time I was the one who walked into your little demension here, and now I want out before someone *looks over at Kezka and glares* tries to kill me once again so can we get on with this please!" Elina says with anger and adgitation in her voice.
Azufel nods "The girl's anger has a good reason. Please, return her to her dimension safely, in one piece, and on the place she came from."
he didn't know just how evil this guy was, but he figured he might as well state the wish of Elina very clear, so the guy wouldn't pull any tricks. That is, if this guy would keep his word.
"First of all, I'm not evil. At least I don't fin myself so, evil is a thing based on perseption, what i may find evil you might find good or vise versa. Second, Yell I shall return Elina to her world if that is what she wishes. I will grant any of your wishes, you see I have the power to do that. You may all ask of many as much or as little as you like, for it seems that Cara will be paying for you."
Cara nodded, "True, I will pay. Do not be afraide, though I am not fond of Cyan, he keeps his word. I shall keep mine. Do as you wish. "
Elina stands there and waits with what paitence she has left.
"Someone wish for something already!" Alexia yells.
"O, I may know of a wish. So you say that anything we say shall be done, without questions, immediatly, and you will grant everything?" Shade asks "I have thought of a fairly good wish, but I want to go last."
Iemara turned to Elina and spoke to her very quietly. "Be very careful. Cyan will send you home but the price may be too high for you. Just remember that there may be other ways if you chose not to have him grant your wish."
Elina nods, and waits with some paitience.
* I just wish I would of never accidently fall into this demension Damn!*
"Wish. You said wish. None of you will have ever met if you wish that wish. Is that your wish?" Cyan says.
Cara laughs at Elina's mistake. "Becareful what you wish for, you'll get it."
Shade grins "On one side, I don't mind, but then again, you people gave me quite a laugh sometimes. You were so foolish at times."
He laughs, but then waits to hear everybody's wishes.
"That was not my wish Cyan." Elina says quietly.
Nods, "Very well. Think before you speak. A wise lesson I am certain." says Cyan.
Cara looks at Shade curously "What shall YOU wish for?"
"It would ruin the surprise Cara, don't be so curious." Shade says, grinning.
Iemara approached Cyan. "Whatever Elina's price is, I shall pay it for her since I do not have a wish." she told him softly, knowing that the price of Elina's wish may be too high for her to fulfill. Also, Iemara was sick of such a pointless existence. She wanted some excitement and had hoped that this little adventure would give her some. She was sadly mistaken.
Alexia crosses her arms and waits. Occasionally glaring at Shade for no perticular reason.
Shade is patiently waiting for Cyan to forfill Elina's wish. he was wondering what took so long.
Elina stood up with a confident smile on her face.
"I am ready to make my wish." she said confidently with a slight smile.
Everyone stood there staring, some glaring at her waiting for it to happen. Soon she would be gone and out of their hair.
"Say it already!" Says Cara.
Elina nods and starts to speak..
"Everyone its been nice knowing you all thanks for all of the help you've given me along the way. I appericiate it."
Turns to Cyan and whispers quietly...
"I wish to go home in the 5th demension."
"Done." Waves hand, Elina disapere,"Next?"
Cara smiles in pleasure, Elina was gone...
Shade looks around. "My turn, right? I wish for this entire place and you *points at Cyan* in it to explode into thousands of little pieces with no survivors. While that happens, I'll be sittig on top of some hill watching the fireworks. See you all again in hell."
Then he makes a gesture and he shifts himself to another dimension. He can still see what's happening in the house and people can see him, you just can't touch or harm him and vice versa.
Everyone explodes.
Koryn floats. "ummmm...I'm, alone..."
Koryn shouts, "I wishes for everybodys to come back!"
Everyone is put back together except for some cuts and scrapes.
Cara looks at shade in the other dimension, "Nice wish. I am getting ideas..."
Shade grins. The party may be back, the entire Temple and Cyan were gone. he shifted back to the material Plane and laughed. "Now that was pretty fun, wasn't it?"
Azufel fell out at him "You stupid shadow you could have gotten us all killed!"
Shade laughs "Well of course! If Koryn wouldn't have wished something in the nick of time, you indeed would have been very very dead."
Azufel sighed. he could have known Shade didn't give a damn about their lifes. If only he had his old strenght now Shade would pay. Unfortunatly, he didn't have them and he'd have to wait patiently from the moment they would return.
Cara smiled evily at shade as she pulled out a bottle of somthing from her bag. It was bottle of captured pure light. She whispered some strange words, "Avilya Lotherian, meoke soron lotoya c'est vi lie moterdon nie do moto eterdon prodoto." Shade was surrounded by the peircing white light as it pulled him into the bottle. Several flashes whent off in the bottle and then he was released. Only he was different. His clothes were white and so was he, no longer a shadow but a form of light. "Let's see how monsiure Shade handles being pure of heart and without lies for a while. I'll remove the enchantment when I'm sure his lesson has been learnt."
Koryn laughed, he handed shade the orb of darkness he'd had out earlier, "To remind you of all the evil you have done. Just look into it and ask for the memory. You will see it from the victoms point of you. Interesting I should think."
A young little girl stares at them in awe. From a tree she leaps closer to see whats happening.
Shade laughs out loud. "Cara, you stupid girl. Now that I am a creature of light doesn't mean I am not evil. Light and Darkness have nothing to do with Good or Evil. It's just that Evil preferes darkness, and Good preferes light. But it doesn't mean Evil can't be light, or Good can't be dark. Have you never heard of, let's say, vampires who have decided to protect people from their own kind? That would be a perfect example of Good in darkness."
He looks around, and looks at his new body. He grins points a finger at Cara. Then a bright beam of white light, more powerfull than those from the sun, shoots out and hits cara in the face, blinding her.
"Now let's see how well you do without your vision."
Iemara shook her head and sighed. "Just when you think you get to rid of the nuicence . . . " she looks around. "Well, it doesn't appear I have anything more which binds me to this group." she begins to walk away, then stops, an evil grin appearing on her face. 'Mind you, it may be fun to watch everyone try to kill one another. What else do I have to do?' she walked back over to the others, no one having noticed her absence.
The little girl in the tree continued to stare from her room window in the next house. *What are they doing?*
Cara sighs, blocks shade pitifull beam of light, walks to him, pullls a double edges sword from somwhere, "I forgot to tell you..." she said as she stabes him where his heart would be, "You're now mortal." She pulls it back out, smiling at the crimson stain it made.
Koryn picks up a kitten, strokes it, opened his mouth, sunk his teeth into it's neck and drank, thinking thoughtfully.
The little girl in the tree was so grossed out that she gagged and fell out of the tree infront of them.
"uh... sorry gotta run." she stutters and runs off into a wall. Stands up... "I am ok and walks down the hall dissapearing into nothingness.
Cara smirks, "Gracefull..."
"Stupid little girl." Alexia blurts out. "Is anyone going after her?"
Shade looks at the blood covering his white clothing.
"Now that's interesting."
he looks up at Cara. "I always wondered what it was like to die. Unfortunatly, I'm afraid of what lies after it, and you are standing too close to me. So, you are coming along."
And with a final, immense burst of power, his hand shoots out and bursts into cara's chest, ripping her heart out. And with Shade's last breath, cara's heart made it's last beat, and their spirits went to the afterlife together, leaving two blooded corpses in a pool of red, growing ever larger.
Azufel yelled: "NOOOOO!!"
but he was too late too stop Shade, or Cara. He watched the two fall down, before sinking on his knees himself.
"No, this can't be. Two beings, violently murdered, right on front of me, and I... I did nothing..."
Azufel starts crying softly, tears falling in the pool of blood. Shaking his head, he watches the remaining group.
"I'm sorry. If I want to make up for this mistake, I need to go now too. I must make sure they reach the afterlife. I... I wish you all the best of luck, may you all be blessed and may your path be lit."
Then Azufel looks up, and starts a prayer. Then a burst of light comes from the sky, hitting him right through his chest, and Azufel's body falls on the ground, next to Shade's.
Then a white figure stood up from the body of Azufel. A shining figure of light looks at the party, and two large fearthered wings came out of his back. He smiles gentle, before flapping his wings and going towards the sky. It was Azufel in his true form: An angel. It also was the last the party would ever see of Azufel, as his body had dissappeared when they looked back.
Cara floats in the under world by Shade. "Too bad I sold my soul for immortality. Bye." Waves. "Oh shit I need a a potion to get back. Damn you!!!" she says shaking Shades spirit.
Azufel's spirit comes along and without words he guides them. Shade casts one glare of anger at the angelic appearance, but then he gets taken along as all spirits are when they are taken. When they arrived at the afterlife, Azufel speaks to them one last time.
"Remember, death is nothinbg but a sweet slumber, and you can always awake. It's true everyday is a new day. You can return to Life as easily as you could die, but you will recieve a new body and you must start all over again. Might you desire for Life, that can be done. But remember the perfection and peace found in Death can be a nice replacement for the Chaos of Life."
Then the wings flap again, and Azufel pulls himself onwards through the Afterlife, landing in a bright light floating above the world of the afterlife, a light called Heaven.
Shade looks a last time, then turns around and walk towards the masses of the dead, hoping to find the Peace Azufel spoke about.
Iemara blinked and looked around. "Is everyone going to kill themselves? Is that how everything's going to end?" and sighed and shook her head.
A sudden image of Azufel's head appeared in front of iemara, with a kind smile on his face. It dissappeared almost the same moment, but it left a message in her head: 'Don't see death as an end, but more as a new beginning. Shade and cara are gone, at least for now, but I'll always be watching. Travel onwards, meet new people, see new wonders, gain new experiences. Shade and cara were both dominant persons. Take your newly gained freedom, and do what you wished for: adventure.'
Iemara smiled. 'Great, there goes one of the few people I actually enjoyed the company of.' "Ok, where to now everyone?"
"I wish I knew." Alexia whispers. A tear rolls down her pale cheek.
Cara screams jumpib\Ng up and down,
"I REFUSE TO BE DEAD!!" Cara looks down(or up) at the group, "ALEXIA, GIVE ME THE RED POTION BOTTLE FROM MY BODY SO I CAN COME BACK!!"
Iemara looked at Cara then laughed. "Get it yourself if your so powerful!" she looked at Alexia, still laughing. "You can if you want Alexia but don't you think this suites better than before?"
Cara looks down (or up) at Iemara, "I have had ENOUGH OF YOU!!!!!" chants......
Iemara is suddenly raised into the air and smack against a wall violently several times, and is then sat back down on the ground.
"I feel better now..." says Cara cheerfully.
Alexia grabs the red potion and throws it at Cara. "Here!" she yells wiping the tears from her eyes.
"Was that supposed to hurt?" Iemara asked as she stood up and dusted herself off. "Well, if you people are going to do nothing but kill one another and hurt each other with no real purpose in mind, them I think I shall take my leave. Glad to meet some of you, others I hope to never see again." With that, Iemara fazed from sight, deciding not to stay with them any longer
A tall figure follows Cara while she goes away from the Afterlife. As she enters the border and starts crossing it, so does he. What first appeared to be a good-looking young man with a nice face, now started rotting. His bright red garb becoming ever blacker and little shreds falling of. Black raven wings come out of his back. It transformation completes when he and Cara enters the realms of life again. A blood tainted skull looks down on Cara.
"You are immortal, while you do not deserve it. You are not a creature of the High Good, nor of the High Evil. You serve no purpose in this life but your own, therefor you should die. My name is forgatten over the ages, but you all know me as the Grim Reaper, the End of Life in person. I ask you to come with me."
"Go fuck yourself. Oh wait you cant, that must be depressing." she says sarcasticaly as she walks over to Alexia, "Thank you much."
The Grim Reaper looks at Cara, apperently not in a single way insulted or touched by her comment. He just stands there, boney hands hanging, wings folded. "You do not deserve to be here. You must come."
He stretches out a boney hand, and opening it in a way that might have been quite welcoming, if the flesh had still been on the hand.
"And just who are YOU to decide wether or no I deserve to be here? You better back of boy, my athority goes over YOUR head." and with that her hair came out of her raid, turned bright red. Her skin pale, her lips just a shade or two darker, her eyes blazed, her tongue(now black, long and forked) flicked in and out of her mouth. "You cannot order me around." with that she walked away.(away but still there). she whisperes somthing in koryns ear, he nods. "Mistress that evil."
she nods, "yes i know."
Koryn holds out paws and chants, Iemara appears before them all looking startled ta being there"what?" she demands of Cara.
Koryn ignores her, Iemaras clothes disapear, he casts a spell on her, and brings shade back to life(well sort of- he wasnt that alive to begin with) and makes Iemara fall in love with him...permanently with NO countercurse and NO antidotes.
Cara and Koryn laugh insanely "Muwumuwumuwuhahahahahaha!"
Lighting flashes and thunders rolls in the sky, it grows dark, Cara smiles evil."Well?" she asked, daring anyone else to upset her, for she had (after all) gotten Elina back to her own world, and THIS was the thanks she got? Nope, she did not like this not one bit.
Death gazed upon Cara "This is exactly why you should go along to the Afterlife. You know no limits to your powers, you upset natural balances because you feel like it. You either come along or I promise you something will come by that is even greater than you to free the world of this nuisance."
he looks at Shade "You do not wish nor belong to be here, get back to the Afterlife."
And with a red ray from the Reaper's hand Shade dissappears again. Then he looks at Iemara.
"Your love for Shade has now died."
And looking at Cara "Death is no spell, nor anything magical. it's a fact. And you shall not be an exception to that fact."
Then he dissappears in a cloud of black fog flying in every direction from the point where he was standing.
Alexia spoke suddenly. "That was fucked up."
A bright light appears and Azufel stands there, though the light doesn't go away. He looks at Alexia. "Fucked up? Maybe, but you are in trouble anyway. I know the guy personally, when he says he'll kill somebody, he will do just that. After all, he has eternity on his side, and you don't. I suppose you travel futher and cara, for your own good, please don't pull those tricks of you again. I will be going now, if you wish to summon me, here *tosses an amulet at Alexia* but please, not for small matters. And as for your trouble with Death, I won't intervene with that. That's your own problem."
After this Azufel looks at everybody, and Iemara in particular while transmitting some thoughts to her: 'Maybe you shouldn't go, I'm getting the feeling you're the only sane one left.'
After this he dissappears.
A hole opened in the earth, and Rewn climbed out, panting heavily, his clothes torn more than before. "Holy hell. I never want to go down there again." He looked up at the people. "Oh, you people again. What's going on now?" He smiled a bit, moving away from the hole as it closed again. He stood up and dusted himself off, fixing his hair.
Needless to say Iemara was pissed about the stunt with Shade but she said nothing, instead planning her own revenge. 'Normally I do not allow myself to sink to such a low level but I think I may make an exception in this case.' she thought to herself, ensuring to block her thoughts from any unwelcome evesdroppers. Well, if Azufel thought it was worth her while to stay then perhaps she would. She was suprised though that, even under a spell, she was able to love someone again. "Interesting . . ." she muttered to herself.
Cara sighs, "I helped get Elina back. I gave you all wishes, any you'd like, some took advantage of that, some did not. MY spirit helper(Koryn) brought you all FROM THE DEAD, and you all HATE ME? What the hell did I do to deserve this?. Damn. Well, fine, i'll leave(for a while) leats see how you fair without me..." she disapears.
Jewel walks over to Iemara, "Don't be mad at her, she, because of her erm...past history, cannot stand to have people talk down to her or command her. Try to understand." she says, combing her white/silver hair with her fingers.
Alexia was shocked. She stared at the amulet. She then turned her eyes away and hung the amulet around her neck. She had a secret though that obviously Azufel didn't know. She ran her fingers through her long silky silver hair. She thought to herself. 'I only he did know.'
Rewn cocked a brow, looking at them all. "Right, still confused." He yawned a bit. "What is everyone doing? Tea party? Joy."
"Oh, I'm not really that mad." Iemara laughed. "A little violated maybe but not mad. I'm actually quite interested in what happened. So, does anyone else have something for us to do or are we just going to stand around here like idiots?"
"Want to make-up enbarrasinh stuff about shade and tell people we don't know who probably don't know who he is anyway?"
suggests Foxx.
Koryn smiles, "oh what fun.."
". . . you've got to be kidding me!" Iemara looked up to the sky and yelled "Why should I stay again Azufel?????" she looked back down and shook her head. "Can we MOVE somewhere or DO something?"
"Yes please." Alexia says with an impatient sigh. "What she said. I'm slightly bored."
Jewel strips.
Foxx, "Um..erm..uh.."
Jalan points at random palace, "Lets go see if we can get in to the vault, take the leader persons money and get out alive." he says as he helps Jewel put her clothes back on.
"If any of you are interested in a good battle, I know of two tribes who are currently at war with one another. Both equally matched, at a stale mate waiting for something to happen to break it. It's a trivial thing but it's something to do." Iemara suggested sighing. She really didn't want to steal from anyone.
"Okay." says Koryn.
"Sure" Says Laran.
"That works fine." says Jalan.
Rewn crossed his legs and closed his eyes. "I think I'll sleep then. If no one's doing anything whatsoever."
"Well, it's about a three day's walk North. We can't go any other way because it is guarded by powerful, ancient magic. Anyone who wishes to join me may come." with that Iemara began walking in the northern direction with the intent to help with the battle she had described.
