~The-Real-World~ Name: Joshua Turner Age: 17 Gender: Male Appearance: Will update today Personality: Immature and laid back Joshua tries and most often fails in cheering everybody up. His laid back demenour suggests he may not be to bright since he doesn't add much to serious discussions. But in truth he knows more about most than many do. Never knowing true love, he has become sort of a womanizer always mistaking lust for love. His battle demenour is the exact oppisite of his normal life, for the most part, he loves to show off and do fancy maneuvers, but everymove he makes he choreographs 10 moves ahead of time to keep from making any mistakes. History: Joshua had lived his first 12years of his life on the streets. Fighting for everything he could get. He was a member of the gang The Senkai Snakes. He escaped from there when he was 14 to move in with a foster family. He then began high school and became almost instantly popular. He enjoys his normal high school life, but sometimes he longs for the feel of the streets again. He recantally became a little outgoing because of an underclassmen girl he thinks he may be falling for. But he still enjoys being the pervert he's always been. ~In-Invalice~ Name: Tidus the White Cloud Age: 19 Appearance: Will update today Race: Human Starting Job: Soldier Weapon: Shortsword Great idea and well put together goddess

I've noticed(and I'm sure you have as well) that every story(that lasts such as the Kill Adam Vol II and what not) has its own unique characteristics that make it great. And most of the time it doesn't matter what the setting is, some great stories are set in realistic 13th century times. Some are set in futuristic distant planets, and even more are set in current times. Some are about Government officials plotting to overthrow society as we know it. Others are about demons/or other supernatural beings threatening to destroy the planet. [B]What I want[/B] I want to open a post here devoted to story ideas, and what people think are good. After two weeks or longer depending on the amount of posts I'm going to ask the mod to close it and use the ideas to create a sort of "Ultimate Story". Possibly one that could last as long as some of the great ones have. Any ideas are welcome, and please feel free to debate if one person says that stories should have some sort of love theme in them, and somebody else doesn't agree, debate about it. No idea is dumb, and once its closed all ideas will be considered, I'm going to ask for two, four, or even six volunteers to make a sort of council between them and myself to finally decide on the best of the best ideas after the forum is closed. Thank you for your time.

Name: Ty Williams Age: 16 Gender: Male Nationality: American Appearance: Stands tall at 6'4 with a lean muscular appearance. Weighing around 190lbs. Short Spikey brown hair with blonde tips. Wears mostly blue jeans and sleevless shirts of varying colors. Power: Ty is a fire starter. The only problems are he has yet to learn to control it, and he must be within 10ft. of the flameable item he wishes to ignite. His power does not allow him to cause living beings to Spontaneously Combust, he can however create small balls of fire to appear though. Background: Born onto the streets Ty had been fighting for his life since he can remember. He learned of his power when he was 10 years old during a gang war. As the enemy opened up fire from a 50 cal. Machine gun Ty watched in horror as all his friends were cut down right in front of him. Enraged Ty ran up and touched the gun causing every bit of gunpowder in the unexploded bullets to ignite, blowing the Gun, killing the one shooting, and knocking Ty completly unconscious. Since then he's rulled the streets, using small tricks to intimidate weaker gang leaders into breaking their gangs up. Though still young, Ty has been seeking answers to his strange powers, or a way to use them to aid in the demolish gang wars. And other abomonations in the world.

Senkai sat upright in bed. Another dream, this time he was facing Iodias again, arm gone scar on his right eye just as he heard Ty say after he returened. Everytime Iodias bested him, but this time Senkai won. But only after the rest of the band was dead at his feet. As he sat there he decided it was time to come clean, he walked down the hallway pounding on every door, calling for everyone to meet downstairs. As everyone filtered in, Senkai stood in front of them. Finally ready to tell everything he knew...and had learned. "We...well you guys have weakened Orion's belt significantally. I noticed many of Gervines men in Iodias compound. This can only mean that he has taken control of Gervines troop. But I noticed one of my old comrades in there as week speaking of a united Belt. So apparently Iodias is trying to unite the belt, and how better than killing not only the female assassin Gervine could not catch, but also kill the only Sojo to ever escape the belt, and the last remaining Shadow Dragon..." "Iodias is as good as dead" Ty said "Even if he survived the wounds I inflicted his credability is as good as gone." "Trust me Ty, Iodias is as strong as ever, he'll find away to componsate for that lost arm I'm sure, I don't know if anybody noticed but his left leg was slightly smaller? It was severed in a battle between me and him a couple years ago, he had it replaced with a mechanical leg and it hasn't slown him down a bit." Senkai went on "I have something else to tell you, I didn't bring it up before but I need to now, Iodias has some help, from the last remaining group of the belt. The Shadow Clan, they're ways are almost identical to the Shadow Dragons....So if any of us survive the next try for the zeal crystal, I'd appreciate a hand at stopping Iodias...Mayhony he will have all kinds of men waiting for us at the crystal. We're going to need a new plan." Senkai finished turning the floor over to Mayhony.

Asaku watched Takahiro land on the ground with a loud thud. [I]If we don't start acting fast, he's going to rejuvinate[/I] he thought to himself. "Everybody has sacrificed so much, its my turn!" Asaku whispered to himself. Picking up Aida's Gem and Blade Asaku began channeling the energy from both gems into both of the blades. Flying into the Air Asaku looked too his friends, and then to Orion. "This is for everyone Orion, everyone I love!" Asaku cried as he released all the energy he could muster into the blades. "[B]Omnislash![/B] " Asaku cried as he slashed both blades into a cross form. A cross shaped burst of Energy lept from the blades, Seperating one of Orions legs from his body. Asaku collapsed beside Takahiro, though he was too exhausted to remain conscious, he still held a smile on his face, a smile of hope.

OOC: Sorry about my abscence everyone, something unexpected came up and I did not have the chance to get on and tell everyone where I was going. Senkai awoke the next morning expecting to have heard from Mayhony or the rest of the band. [I]I suppose they've only been gone for one evening...but still[/I] He couldn't help but be worried. Going to Xero's room he noticed he was still passed out. "Xero, I'm stepping out for a few" He said as he tossed a two way radio onto the bed of the half awake Xero, "If anything happens, hit me up on the radio." Senkai quickly left the hideout at a full sprint. Arriving at his destination a few hours later, Senkai checked his knives and his daggers and knocked on the door. Palms soaked with perspiration he awaited the answer. When suddenly he heard a scream coming from the second floor, and saw a sojo dive from the top window, hit the ground rolling and dash away. [I]It can't be...no not after all I've went through.[/I] Senkai scaled the wall and dove through the window, seeing the young woman on the ground Senkai ran to her side lifting her head into his lap hoping she was still conscious. "Senkai...wha...what are you doing here?" The girl asked barley able to speak. "For some long, sought after answers." He replied, watching her face to see if she knew what he was talking about. "You know daddy would kill..*cough*..if he knew you were here." She replied her strength slipping from her. "I want to know why you turned me in...why did you betray me?" He was shaking her now. "Senkai...I didn't betray you, my...*cough*...little sister did, she's also the one who sent the Sojo after me, she betrayed you, and tried to get rid of me before you could find me." Though he did not know why, Senkai believed her. "You need to relax, the wound isn't fatal, but you need to rest." He laid her in bed as she slipped into a deap sleep. "I'll stay with you as long as it takes" Senkai said grabbing her hand and giving it a tiny squeeze. "Isn't this touching?" A voice came from the window behind Senkai. Knowing who it was Senkai dared not turn, but he knew if he did not he would be dead. "You did not forget me already did you?" It was the voice of Nicholas' ex-second in command Iodias. "Iodias...." Was all Senkai could say as he rememberd the ninja, they were trained by the same master so many years ago. Iodias bested Senkai on all aspects of their trades. Senkai just got lucky and won the masters favor by beating Iodias on a fluk during a spar. Ever since, they had been mortal enemies. Even after joining Nicholas' band as second in command, he did everything he could to mess with Senkai. "I'm going to fill you in on something since you are about to die, your little friend here didn't betray you. I made that up to get you to lose your nerve, and oh how it worked." Iodias gloated. Senkai arrose drawing his blades, "Yeah, I'm deffinateally going to have to kill you now" He laughed as he began his charge. Iodias blocked the attack and kicked Senkai straight to the ground. "I'm so sorry Senkai, but it seems you're even weaker than...." Suddenly a voice came over the radio Iodias was carrying. "Boss, we got problems, the female assassian and her three friends are awake and on the move." The voice came through clearly enough for Senkai to know who it was talking about. "You got lucky today Senkai, but next time we meet you will die" Iodias through a smoke gernade towards Senkai. Knocking it to the ground Senkai prepared to go after the rival ninja...but to his surprise he began to feel weak as the smoke filled the room...."Damn..him" Was all he could get out as he feel unconscious. Waking up it was close to mid-afternoon. "Iodias!" Senkai shouted as he sat upright in a bed. "Shh, he's gone Senkai." It was her voice.."I'm sorry I have to go, I'll explain some other time" He shouted as he lept through the window. He was newly renewed knowing his beloved had not betrayed him, he felt his old self. He felt he could finally be at 100% of his game...and for the sake of the rest of the group he hoped they were as well. He sprinted past the house radioing Xero as he went, "We have to get to Mayhony quick, otherwise we may lose everyone" Xero's voice responded "Oh Shit, I'll catch up" Senkai moved as fast as he could in the direction he knew they were heading, hoping Iodias did not have as big a head start as he thought he did.

Jacks stared uneasily at the Pillar of Autumn II as the bombs strapped to the Engines ignited the chain reaction tearing the whole ship apart. Jacks tapped into the radio of a downed Marine that he found lying next to an unconscious elite. He heard the Elite wake to the sound of the Metal scrap rip as the ship came undone, as if sensing their was somebody listening the Elite grunted. "All you humans are going to die...we will slaughter ever single....." The voice abruptly ended as the ships reactor core blew vaporizing everything inside the ship. There was complete silence in the personel bay of the transport, the ship everybody thought to be invincible was taken with barley any resistance by covenant standings. Jacks stared around the room seeing solem almost frightened stares from some of the marines, and though you could not see their faces, he knew his fellow trainees, as well as master chief were feeling the same. "Well I'd say that was a great victory wouldn't you guys? I mean we had to have taken six or seven hundred of those filthy bastards out, not counting the ones that had to have died in the explosion. I'd say running back with their grunts between their legs." He joked as he glanced around. Everybody was staring at him, but ammusment was deffinateally the last thing on their faces. He had at least hoped for a smile from somebody. "Skyshot, I know you thought it was funny, the funnier something is, the more serious you get. So damn that must've registered a 50 on a scale of 1-10." He said smiling to himself.... His mood changed again as he stared back and began thinking of all the good soldiers that died today in the worst loss the Earth Forces have suffered since the events on Halo.

OOC: LiuBei013, Jacks isn't being competative, his one goal is to make Jacks smile or something, so he's doing/saying anything to accomplish that, even at the expense of his person. Jacks stood there listening to Skyshot give orders as he sprayed his battle rifle at the oncoming horde. [I]He's a good leader, but I will make him laugh damnit[/I] Jacks' hope of the rest of spartans finding survivors slowly went down and down as he heard the agonizing cries for help and the final breaths of a few of the marines from the communicator in his helmet. All of the cries finally through Jacks over the edge, "Die you Ugly bastards" Jacks cried as he began walking forward, loosing shotgun blasts, that many times were taking two or three grunts and elites at a time. Suddenly fearing he was going to be hit by a round or ten from Skyshots Battle rifle, as he glanced over his shoulder he realized the Royal Blue Spartan was right beside him, he had followed him stride for stride into the mass of Covenant. As the two cut right through the group they finally reached the door, turning as they crossed the thresshold Jacks turned to face the advancing force. "Eat this shiteaters" Sticking a plasma gernade to the nearest Grunt Jacks sent a combonation of punches which sent the grunt sailing straight into the mass of covenant. As he dove through the hallway he turned to where Skyshot was standing. "Now that was cooltastic, wouldn't ya say ya old grump ass?" He laughed as he turned, only to find that Skyshot was already gone. [I]That bastard left me...owell maybe I outta take it easy on him with the trying to make him laugh thing, otherwise he may launch me into space one we're on the ship[/I] . Coming out into the hangar where the ship waited, Jacks saw Steele standing on the platform of the ship awaiting the rest, but no more spartans could be seen. Running up the platform Jacks Strapped his shotgun to his back and armed his Sniper Rifle. "Lets see umm get anywhere near this ship." Jacks said to steele as he laid down in the prone position pointing his rifle to the only entrance to the hangar awaiting anything other than a spartan or a human to attempt to enter. He glanced down at his ammo counter, he had picked up a couple rounds on his way to the hangar from a fallen marine and he wa full and ready to go.

Jacks laughed out loud when he saw the Elite drop in his scope. "Like shoot'n fish in a barrel." He said to no-one in particular. Suddenly a voice came through his communicator in his suit. "Can you not take anything seriously" Skyshots voice came through clear as a bell. "My goal, before this little adventure of ours is over, I will make you crack a smile ya old grump ass" Jacks replied back into it, as he dropped another Elite. "Fish in a barrel" he cracked to himself. Suddenly Jacks heard a growl from behind, and seconds later he was flying through the air. Turning and drawing his shotgun he faced the new foe. A hunter was charging right at him, "Oh hell no you stupid piece of crap" He let off three rounds at the hunter from point blank range. But he was quickly brought to terror as he realized the hunter didn't slow a step. "AHHHH" Jacks cried as he was yet again launched into the air. "You big mother, try that again" Jacks could see it hesitate at the thought he might have a plan to stop it. [I]duh[/I] he thought to himself as he drew out a plasma gernade. "Catch this moron" He threw his gernade true and it stuck right on the Hunters arm. Jacks began dancing around until he notcied a faint green glow through the smoke. "Uh-Oh" He gulped as he barley dodged the blast, Reloading his shotgun he let loose another three rounds hoping the creature would think it was all he had left. After taking the three rounds in stride the Hunter began another charge, just as he neared Jacks, Jacks lept to the side and let loose a round straight into the soft, orange tissue in the creatures back, instantly killing it. As he danced on top of the body he radiod Skyshot "Did ya see that? I took the stupid jerk out!" He yelled into the mic. Suddenly he heard another growl from behind and again he was airborne, this time however it sent him over the edge, landing him right beside Skyshot. As he rose to his feet he reloaded his shotgun again "God bless these Spartan suits, now lets kick some tale Blue balls....I mean blue boy"

As Senkai realized everyone was present he stepped up before Mayhony could begin. "Everyone, I know whats going on here." As he looked around, he realized nobody even remotly looked shocked. "Well I guess it wasn't that hard to figure out was it?" he finished chuckling a bit. "I don't see whats so funny, you've known what was going on for sometime, but you decided to keep quiet and put all of us in danger" Mayhony snapped rising up. Her forcefullness shocked Senkai and made him begin to doubt his decision. [I]No I have to, I have to tell them everything. [/I] "You are partially right, Okay heres the story" He cleared his throat as he prepared to spill everything. "First off, Sage you were in a band under the leadership of Nicholas Gervine correct?" He asked as if he really needed to know. "Yes that is true, thats why his men are after me" She said, fully confused at what he was talking about. "Well Gervine's band was the third of three bands in the assassin network 'Orions Belt'..." He tried to continue but Sage cut him off. "I think I would have known if Gervine had any connections like that" "Not really, only three of us Sojo Tai knew of the exsistence of the belt. So I doubt anybody but Gervines second in command would have known of its participation in the belt....Now listen everybody, both Sage and I abandoned our bands right before the war on the 'Ceipher'. Now it hasn't been released yet, but the Ceipher were completly wiped out thanks to the belt." Senkai trailed off for a second, letting his mind wonder back to his past. [I]I hope you made it out okay...even after you betrayed me I still love you[/I] "But the Ceiphers one of the most prominent groups in the world today" Syn cut in "Well this was true up until a week ago, but the belt laid waste to them and eliminated any evidence tying them in. And now since everything has cooled down Oriko, who was the leader of the Sojo Tai, and Gervine want to eliminate any traitors that could have had any information. Namely Sage and myself." The whole group seemed to shift themselfs away from Sage and Senkai as if just being close to them was grounds to be caught up in their dilema. "Thats why I was so hard on Sage, I had to see if it was her or not, and once I saw Gervine and Oriko's men after her I knew this was big. Now we don't have anything to worry about unless the main band gets involved, I wish I could give ou some information on them. But even I was not allowed to know anything....Mayhony I apologize for bringing this onto you, but I think we should hit the Zeal Crystal hard and fast, that way Sage and myself can just disappear. I see it as the only way to get the Crystal, and ensure all of your safety. I do not doubt your abilities, I knew you all before you knew me from reports I stole from Oriko when I had left, I'm just afraid of what happens if we get rushed by a group from the head." Senkai finished. He looked to Mayhony and the rest, hoping they'd believe him, otherwise it could mean all of their deaths.

The training had gone perfectally. Jacks stood admiring himself, he had trained hard for this. He wanted to be just like the Master Chief, he had dreamed of it since word of his adventures on the super weapon Halo had reached Jacks' ears. "I finally did it, I achieved what I strived so long for and man does it feel good." "Alert" The voice came over the speaker "Alert, all spartans report to the bridge immediateally" Jacks hurried to the bridge, one thing he realized about Master Chief was he hated people being late. [U]On the Bridge[/U] "We have been intercepted by some nasty convenant battleships and are currently being borded. Cortana has the transport parked in the south port. You guys need to help with the evacs." Master Chief quickly briefd his new troops. "Piece of cake" Jacks said confidentally placing his sniper rifle on his back and loading his shot gun up. "Drinks are on Skyshot when we're finished here" He finished laughing. The small group of Spartans Master Chief personally trained set out to locate as many Marines as they could before evacuating themselfs.

Asaku floated in place for a moment, still refusing to accept the fact that Aid was gone. [I]You were always like a brother to me, even after everything with Kitty, you still remained a friend....I will not let your death be in vain[/I] Asaku flew 50ft into the sky, holding Aida's gem and his own in his hands. "[B]Orion, You die now![/B] " Asaku cried. He placed Aida's gem and his own into the crosspiece of his blade. The blade glowed so bright even the swords master Asaku could not look at it. [I]I thought loving Kitty was what gave me my true power....but now I have something even stronger, both Kitty's love, and the brotherly love Aida showed me, theres no way Orion can stop me now[/I] . Asaku gave a mighty warcry as he dove towards Orion. His speed was increased dramatically by the transformation, "I may look older Orion, but I'm stronger than ever" Asaku neared Orion where the battle was already taking place. It appeared the angels were easily dispatching Orion, but Asaku knew looks could be decieving. Diving with the force greater than any he had ever felt Asaku dove his blade straight into Orions shoulder, so hard he thought, and had hoped he would go right through the Evil King. Suddenly Asaku felt the feeling of being airborne again. Orion slapt Asaku off as if he was nothing more than a fly, Asaku landed 10ft away. Arrose with a dumbfounded look on his face. Looking at Orion he realized even though blood was oozing from his wound which still held Asaku's blade, he didn't even seem to slow. [I]Well at least it looked cool[/I] Asaku thought. He stood for a second trying to regain his bareing when he saw Orion slap Kitty and Yojimbo down with surprising force. Asaku flew towards Orion his strength returned. "Hey give me back my sword you stupid jerk" Asaku cried as he went for his blade....

OOC: I changed my post a little, if theres anything I can do to avoid deleting it. Duo hit me with a PM, if not I'll just go ahead and delete it, I'm sorry about that I was in a hurry and after I submitted I just got off. Senkai was at the sink washing his hands, he had decided not to jump right in right away because it was a good chance for her to realize she needed to concentrate more. If not for herself then for him, and also he hoped it might get to her reveal herself. Senkai knew more about Sage than she knew, or probably wanted him too. [I]If they were not highly ranked they might not know about Orions Belt...hmm...well Sage maybe I know more about you than even you do[/I] As Sage walked in he decided not to inform her, with all the stress on her already he did not want her to take on even more knowing that it wasn't just Nicholas after her, it was the whole belt more than likely. "Hey you did good out there Sage, if you face another one like that, you have to shoot him either in the throat, or I know this sounds strange but in the feet." Senkai told her, feeling sort of embarassed at how idiotic that sounded. "The feet? Right Senkai I'm gonna shoot him in the feet" She said the sarcasm radiating from her. "Yes, I know the band from which that ninja came from, he was a Sojo Tai ninja. Master assassin with a bullet proof face mask, and his whole uniform is bullet proof except for a small amount of material on this throat, and his feet, His back is also vunerable but getting a shot on his back when he's after you is nothing short of impossible." "Senkai, how do you know all of this?" Sage asked suspiciously "That doesn't matter right now, what matters is take my advice, and take my apology. I've been hard on you as well as Ty. I just have a big problem with people letting love distort their good judgement. I'd tell you the story now, but we need to get together with Syn, and figure out someway to protect this house, and any plans for the raid Mayhony has lying around. If there is one Sojo, there is probably three or four more out in the bushes awaiting their friends return." Senkai said as the two went to the living room to find Syn sitting on the couch. "We have a problem Syn..." Was all Senkai good get out before a crash was heard in his bedroom upstairs.

Senkai stood there thinking about what to say next. He could draw his weapons, chances were she would kill him, this was after all her house....truthfully after the past few days he wasn't afraid to die. But, he looked at Mayhony, she was the only leader he'd ever worked for who cared actually cared about her band. Who got right in the mix with her band and would die with them. After a short time just staring he decided to let her in on his past. "First of all, I lied earlier when I told everybody I was a member of the Hekuyotai. I didn't want to worry you or anybody else in the band by the truth..." He began, suddenly doubting his decision, but he'd gone this far might as well finish, "I was a member of 'Orions Belt' " He saw her eyes widen when he revealed this. "Senkai, Orions Belt is the dirtiest network around right now. Something about having a combination of two different bands." Mayhony answerd, suddenly aware that she was dealing with a little more than she thought. "Close, I was the second in command of the second group, 'Sojo Tai' or in the ancient tounge from which the band first started, Death bringer, We did all the major assassinations of the past decade, but I doubt that we'll be seeing them soon. Earlier tonight I took out the leader Oriko, so they're going to be out of commission for a few days until a new leader can emerge, and by then I'll be in the past." He paused for a minute, he knew if anybody found he revealed the long kept secrets of Orions Belt to an outsider, he would be killed sometime in his life for sure...but Senkai decided to keep on. "There are two other bands in the network, Nicholas Gervine heads the third group. I know not the name of the band, but word is they're looking for a female thief who ran away not to long ago, The Belt does not handle deserters well. They tracked me for a year after I left, I finally lost them, until recentally. I don't have any information at all on the lead group, all I know is they are supposedly the best assassins in the world." He had revealed almost everything, and he had hoped it was enough for her. "Well, thats nice to know" Mayhony started, even more serious then before, "Its always great to know the best band of assassins is after somebody in my band, but one more question, why did you leave?" The suspicion in her voice almost dropped Senkai, the one question he feared she would ask she had...and she even suspected him of being a double agent. "I.." He couldn't do it, he wouldn't do it, he had to do it, "I left because of...." Was he going to do it? [I]No other choice.[/I] "I left because I lost my edge, I was 17 and had been in the business for 5 years and this was the 6th band I'd been, I kept having to leave because the bands were too becoming to weak for me.. I was the best in Oriko's band and he promoted me to second in command. I had fallen for a young assassin from a rival band, and after we saw each other for awhile we made plans to split and be married. Well I was commissioned to kill the leader of her band, an easy target to say the least. Well after I finished the job I became surrounded, I made the mistake of revealing my plan to her, and she turned on me." He thought he was going to break down and cry right there. "Thats my story, from there I just packed up and left after escaping, it doesn't matter how but I made it out, and then I decided I couldn't trust anybody, and spent the next two years joining up in bands and leaving when the Belt located me." "So the love of your life betrayed you...well we all have pasts we are not to proud of Senkai, but I'm trusting you to tell me if anything with the Belt happens." She finished, turning from his door she walked away. [I]I should have told her about Sage....but I'll let Sage tell her when shes ready[/I]

Senkai grew restless....The waiting was begining to get to him, he had finally fully recovered from his injuries, only to find that pretty much everybody was injured now whether it be serious physical wounds, or possibly irreversible mental ones. As he lie in bed not being able to sleep he decided it was time to do some investigating. An hour later he arrived at the hut. Walking in sat an old man of at least 80 years. "Senkai...why have you returned?" The old man hissed. "Why did you send Meg after me?" Senkai hissed back, now aware of the twenty or thirty men outside of the hut. "I did not send Meg, she acted on her own. But I see you did not hesitate to finish her off, just as you finished my business when you left and disgraced your band" The old man rose to his feet, he seemed old and defensless, but Senkai new him better. "You were doing only evil Oriko, and I was not going to be apart of it. Be glad I did not finish you then" Senkai snarled threatingly. "My evil was going to make you rich, but now since you've returned it'll only bring you death" Oriko snapped his fingers, and on cue 8 knives came flying in from everydirection, but knowing this routine from being part of it, Senkai rolled backwards, and dropping a smoke gernade vanished without a trace. A few hours later back in his room a grin crossed Senkai's face. [I]Well they obviously knew nothing of the raid....but I'm sure they're getting my little present about now.[/I] Senkai grinned as he visioned what happened, he set up the trap to go off about two hours after he left to avoid any chances he could get caught in it. Over a dozen daggers set on the base of a miniature claymore mine with the blastcap pointed right towards the hut. Even if he survived the blast it was not likely Oriko dodged even one of those daggers. [I]I guess you know who is the real master now Oriko....you may have trained me in the black arts of the ninja....but my father taught me the honorable code of the Samaurai, and the vengence runs very deap when you kill another Samurai.[/I] Senkai had to stiffle a laugh, he was certain everyone was aleep, and the death of Oriko would be blasted all over the news the next day. Satisfied for now, Senkai drifted into a deap deap sleep.

I Totally agree on what you said James, but touching on the whole concept on why good, well planned RP's fail. It probably has to do with, people are too fickle. One minute we all want to be serious, and put our hearts and souls into a post. And then the next minute we want to Screw around and be lighthearted. So a serious thread requesting that the posters be serious, and mature seem to serious and overbearing. I think it would go along way, for instead of people demanding everybody be mature, serious, and loyall. They should just lower their standards a little and open up to some comic relief. Just like the story Cliche, they took what had the grounds for a serious RP, and turned it into a Humorous adventure. Being serious, but also opening up to be fun. Every poster has a side that wants ta be funny, they just need to be able to get it out. Just addin my two cents.

"Commander, the uncivilized planet, Lexta 9 is in sight shall we begin preparations for extermination?" The AI voice asks. "Yes, prepare the men, but first I'm going to send a small expeditionary group to check out the terrain...ensign Phillips you are going, take two guards with you." The voice of the ships Captain Mika Phillips called to his son, Joshua. "Yes sir!" Ensign Phillips along with two guards, then teleported to the surface of Lexta 9. "Sir, this would be a perfect place for the drop, shall I call the Leo and have them begin sending the troops?" The first guard asked after the team had searched for a few hours. "No, lets find out if they have any weapons first" Joshua replied to the guard. Suddenly from the bushes, a small child slowly emerged. "Mister, what is that you have?" She asked, Josh was amazed at how primative these people were, the types of blasters he had was almost obsolete by earth standards. "Sir look out!" The second guard cried as he fired at the child, killing her instantly..."What did you do!?" Josh cried, opening fire at both guards, the sudden rage surprising even himself. After both guards were dead, and the battle calmed, a young woman came out of the bushes the smaller child had just come out of. "Oh thank you for trying to save my sister, but what sort of magic did you use to combat those warlocks...or are you one yourself?" She asked, suddenly afraid. "I am not one of them, but you must take me to your leader" Josh replied quickly, almost embarassed as he thought about all the stereotypes about aliens he he heard in ancient history class. "Ensign, are you ready for the troops..Ensign....[B]Josh!" [/B] His fathers voice came over the communicator, knowing his father would never disobey the generals orders he had to act fast. "No Sir, we need a little more time" Josh lied, thinking of the two dead soldiers, he had to almost choke down the vomit that came in his throat after thinking about killing them. He knew he'd only get about an hour so he had to act fast. 45minutes later... The elder had not recieved him as well as the dead childs sister had, he was very suspicious of Josh, and not easily willing to listen. "Sir you must believe me, in 15minutes this whole villiage is going to be wiped out unless we mass some sort of defense." Josh pleaded with the elder. "Why should we believe you? You were with the men who slayed that little girl." The elder snapped at Josh. Thinking about the poor little girl, who had hurt nobody made Josh sick again. "I know sir, but there are going to be over a thousand more with weapons very similar to mine." He brought out his laser pistols and fired a blast into the wall, leaving a giant whole in the wooden structure...[I]Oh ****, only about 10 shots left between the two of them.[/I] The sudden look of fear in the elders eyes told Josh that he had made the impact he had hoped for. "We will give you 10men to go to the Capital city with, the rest of the town will evacuate right behind you" The elder said to him as he dismissed the young earthling. Setting out on the road right away, with only 2 or 3 minutes to spare, Josh took a last look at the small town, who in minutes was going to be totally wiped out. Josh looked around to his companions, 10very large men 5 wielding bows and arrows and the others wielding very large swords, ahead in the distance Josh could barley make out the outline of the man on the horse sent ahead to tell the king in the capital city of Tauraline of the oncoming band, and of the onslaught soon to come, and to ask the King to send out word for the 5 best warriors in the land. Josh also looked to his side, which now held a scabbard with the holy sword of the land, "Gimindel", which was a long sword which also glowed a faint white. [I]better learn to use this quick with only 10 shots left in the pistols[/I] he thought to himself.

"Sakura" Asaku called through the mindlink "Let him wait, we must be here to support Takahiro during his battle..."Just stay calm and let Orion say what he wants...AHHH" Asaku finished with a cry as a demonic bullet grazed his shoulder. "Hey jerk, keep those damn bullets to yourself" He yelled at Kage. Asaku was amazed at how accurate the two were, but yet they were still missing each other, he recalled a time he saw Takahiro shoot out the Spade, on an Ace of spades Asaku was holding from 300yds. And now he was shooting like he'd never held a gun before. "Takahiro, you need to calm down and concentrate, aim a little bit" Just then a holy bullet grazed Asaku's other shoulder. "Leave me alone Asaku" Takahiro hissed. Asaku heard Kitty laughing beside him, "Guess ya see how much we respect your opionions Asaku" She said smiling. "Funny" He said punching her in the arm playfully...[I]Its funny....how can I be so happy when Takahiros in so much danger. Haha, oh yeah[/I] he thought to himself looking beside him. He gazed up at Orion. "Takahiros gonna finish this guy for sure Orion, and then your mine." Asaku Called as he reached for his sword, He finally found his true power in Kitty, he knew he was ready to unlock it. Just as soon as Takahiro finishes this guy off.

Sitting there in the living room was harder than Senkai thought it would be. Hiding the pain was no easy task. Meg had missed his heart by centimeters. And he wasn't totally sure he was going to survive the night. [I]Damn, if she knows about this raid then who else knows....and what if he finds out. No there would be no way he'd send her after me, it had to have only been her.[/I] "Senkai are you getting this?" Mayhony asked, breaking into his thoughts. "I'm doing this to save your ass, and make sure I get my crystal without losing any of you." She was obviously upset, but he couldn't even begin to concentrate. Meg had been his one time ally, one time friend. "I apologize Mayhony, but I must tell all of you something..." He paused, not sure if he wanted to even try and explain what had happened. "Last night, I was paid a visit by an old friend", He began as he unbuttoned his shirt exposing hisdressed wound. "It really wasn't a pleasant one" He chuckled as he went on. "Her name was Meg, she was a member of my last band, the Hekuyotai. And quite possibly one of the best assassins I have ever worked with. Somehow she has caught word of our quest for the Zeal Crystal, and I believe she acted alone. But I cannot be sure of it, I just wanted to bring it to everyones attention, and that we should keep our guard up a little more than normal." He finished rising up. "It's nice having you back Hyo, but I'm going to take my leave now. I have a few Ideas for those lasers, a few toys I've picked up on my travels may come in handy, but we'll save those for later. Good night everybody" He said as he began up the stairs. "Hold on Senkai" Syn called "If you're going to ask if Meg and I ever had sex, or fooled around I'll slit your throat as you sleep tonight" Senkai's voice boomed back, a bit of seriousness in it, but mostly just being funny. "Oh never mind then....OUCH" Syn said as Mayhony slapt him in the back of the head. "Thanks Mayhony" Senkai called back just as his door shut.. [I]Maybe its my turn to pay a visit to someone....nah tommorow night maybe.[/I] Senkai thought as he drifted off into a disturbed sleep.

Hearing Sakura's cry for help, quickly caused the oncoming search party to change directions before they made it to the prison chamber. Asaku watched as Aida slowly turned away, and flew off to aid Sakura. Watching, the angel that could have been hist best friend among the angels heart break was almost more than he could take. Tears swelling in his eys, both of joy and great saddness he took Kitty in his arms embracing her, finally hearing what he had been waiting so long to hear. "Asaku...we have to go now" She whispered in her ear. He knew she was right, but Orions power held him there. Remembering the beating he recieved from Orion just nights before made him never want to leave...wanted to hold her there forever. But he knew she was right, "Lets do this!" He cried as they released each other. Looking over his shoulder as the two flew through the labrynth towards Sakura he sent back in a mindlink. "When this gets done you still owe me a bag of oreo's" He chuckled to himself. The two angels came around the final corner running smack dab into Saio. "Ouch" Asaku said rubbing his forehead. Standing in the newly formed arena after Sakura and Takahiro's attacks stood Takahiro...and Takahiro. Ready to fight.

Senkai laid awake in bed thinking when suddenly he heard noises from above. Moans of pleasure coming from Mayhony's room...but something was amiss. [I]hehe clever guys...[/I] He thought to himself. [I]I'm deffinateally not in the mood for this tonight[/I]. He arrose from bed, lifted his window softly, and lept from the third story window of his room. Landing without a sound he softly pulled on the string he had attached to his wrist, slowly closing his window in which it was attached too. The moonlight had always comforted him...ever since his first walk with her. "Why did you have to betray me..." He began takling to himself. "You know the first step to insanity is talking to yourself Senkai" A females voice suddenly sounded behind him. Eyes wide with fright Senkai turned around, "what are you doing here...how did you find me" He stuttered, the fear obvious in his voice. "Relax, its about your new friends...I don't like them" "They're not my friends, they're just my new band" He replied a vote of confidence returning in his voice. "Either way I don't like them, they're attempting a shot at the zeal crystal, and you know thats my crystal" She hissed to him "Well, I apologize Meg...you're not getting close to my friends, or the crystal." The use of friends almost made him stutter again. "I'm sorry...I was going to ask you to join me but I guess I'm going to have to kill you." Meg hissed as she lunged at him, blades drawn. "Again..last time you weren't real affective" Senkai laughed drawing his blades just in time to parry her attack. The two combatants rolled in a ball of Thrust, slashes, dodges and parrys. Any onlooker would surley be awestruck by the battle. Finally Meg dug her blade deap into Senkai's chest, dropping the assasin to his knees...blood oozing from his chest. "This time you won't be coming back" Meg laughed as she brought her blades up for the kill. Senkai's eyes grew wide with fright...and then he laughed as he brought a knife out sticking it in Megs throat before she could drop the final blow. "Wha!?" her eyes said as she began to collapse, gasping for air. "I've learned a few tricks Meg" Senkai grinned as he slowly rose to his feet, blood still oozing from his chest. "And I told you, you won't get anywhere close to my friends" He took his knife from her throat just as the female assassin breathed in her last breath... He somehow made it to his room, and patched his self up just as the lose of blood caused him to collapse, the two lovers were still upstairs putting on their show...but by now, the need to rest had taken over his body, and he could not distinguish if the noises he heard were indeed the noises of two joksters, or two lovers....he passed out, wondering how he was going to hide this from Mayhony's sharp eyes.

Asaku slashed through the final demon, [I]Finally, and now to...huh!?[/I] Asaku gazed in amazement at what used to be the castle. In his fight against the demon army he did not even notice the destruction taking place at Orions palace. Fighting a new larger foe was Takahiro and Sakura.....Flying down to them he landed next to Sakura, "Now, I'm completly lost at the moment, but....what the hell did you do?" He asked jokingly. "I'm not ready for him, but I'll go round up the others and maybe we all can take this ugly bastard down." He said as he began flying away. "He's my twin Asaku he looks just like me!" Takahiros voice echoed through a mindlink "Duh" Asaku yelled back laughing insanly in the mindlink. He could feel Kitty laughing too, "I'm coming Kitty!" he said to himself as he flew through the ruined castle. He knew where Kitty would be, Asaku tricked a demon into giving him a guided tour of the castle when he was working for Orion. Weaving in and out, some corners there were foes, all minor, and easy to blast through. "Kitty!" Asaku cried as he rounded the next corner and saw the female angel staring at the ruins around her in disbelief...All he could think about was how thankfull he was she was still alive, not many survived the clutches of Orion. "Kitty, I thought you were a gonner" He took her in his arms and gave her the most passionate kiss he had ever given anyone. "I love you, I have for such a long time, I was just always afraid to tell you" He whispered in her ear as he embraced her. "Just don't tell Aida...he might hurt me" He laughed, and so did she. It was the greatest feeling ever to come over him, just being with her, and laughing once again. "Kitty!", Aida's voice suddenly came from nowhere, Aida stood in the doorway, the other voices coming closer were the voices of the remaining original search party. Looking down at her, he realized right then and there as he gazed into her eyes, she was finally going to make the decision he had waited on for what seemed like an eternity. But he wondered....will I like the outcome?

Senkai smiled as he sat under the tree watching the spectacle. [I]hmm....they're all good. I just hope nothing bad happens.[/I] He stared off towards the place Syn had went after Mayhony's seductive training. "Can't say I blame ya..." He began as he looked towards Ty who was stunned by the female battle going on uptop. Senkai walked up behind Ty as the females were finishing. "Ty...listen I know you don't know me...and you probably don't want to know me...but you must concentrate, at least for the duration of this job...trust me on this don't let yourself fall for her." Ty turned around as if to say something, but Sage called for him, and as Senkai expected he went to her running. "Senkai, looks like you're up" Mayhony's voice called. Senkai leaped up to the rooftop, still not able to concentrate at the oncoming Mayhony...She easily lept on him, and as he expected reached under his sleeve to find one of his knives. "Huh!?" she cried as she realized they weren't there, Senkai quickly set his legs underneath her launching her about 9ft back. As he expected she landed on her feet easily, but as she prepared to charge he was ready throwing knive in hand. Which stopped her in her tracks. "I told you Mayhony,I'm an expert in Recon, I saw exactally how you dispatched Syn, and how easily you could've beaten Sage if you had wanted too....but I will tell you, you can't beat me." He shethed his knife and replaced it with his own smoke gernade. As he shifted through the smoke in complete silence he could hear her every move. "You need to start focusing more Mayhony..I know you care for Syn as does he you...but both of you need to keep your hormones in check for this next job. I've been to the zeal crystal, its how I lost my last band. They got caught I didn't." Senkai met with a fist too the face, her movements surprised him, but he quickly did a rolling reverse tripping her and disapearing back into the smoke. He could feel her in the smoke, feel her everymove. He had always been adept in fighting in conditions like this.... He was right behind her, dagger drawn. Sliding up before she had a chance to react he placed the tip on her juggular. "I told you from the start that I was the best Mayhony, and I meant it" He could feel her start to move and knew she had a plan, leaping back into the smoke as she kicked back, missing him by inches. The smoke had cleared on the rooftop from Senkai's postion in the trees, Syn was back and the rest clearly they were stumped as to where he lies. [I]Time to see how good they think they are[/I] He moved quickly, letting loose throwing knives from each spot he landed at, all sticking around her forming almost a star pattern...as he moved he could feel her eyes, she knew where he was, or thought so anyways. He let loose his final knife, and with all his might lept down with a mighty dropkick, connecting with Mayhony's checkbone sending her soaring. Before she hit the ground he grabbed her, slammed her into the rooftop, and had one of his daggers drawn at her throat before she could move. "Well, I think this round belongs to me, remember you may be good, but your opponent may know you better than you think." He rose and began picking up his knives from the rooftop. Mayhony connected with a right hook from the side, sending Senkai sprawling. Laughing as he laid there. "Well I'm dead, but your hurting like hell, remember never turn your back." Senkai pointed to her legs as he regained some composure, Mayhony glanced at her legs and noticed a small thin string wrapped around them, Senkai pulled, sending her sprawling to her back, wind completly knocked out. "Never count an opponent out" he laughed as he rose to his feet. "Excuse me, since.....well whatever that was is over can I have my turn now Ty cried from below" "Senkai, your good to go, yes Ty get up her so I can make myself feel better" She smirked as she rubbed her cheek Senkai just grinned as he returned to his tree, and sat down to watch the next fight. Which promised to be an amusing one.
