Redemption

[COLOR=Blue][FONT=Trebuchet MS][size=3]Just to let you know. This will be a fight-against-the-bad-guys type of RPG. But there will be twists and the such on the way. I quite haven't figured out which bad guy I should choose but no matter. O_O and some many people joined up. I didn't think it would be like this.... ^_^ '[/size][/COLOR][/FONT]

[COLOR=Blue][FONT=Trebuchet MS]Ok everyone. I'll give this one more week. Try to encourage your friends to join please. I'll all PM you when I have put the RPG in the Adventure Square. ^_^[/COLOR][/FONT]

[COLOR=DarkSlateBlue][FONT=Trebuchet MS]Karyan looked Sergio up and down. Reading didn't sound that bad. She was used to reading quite a lot in Moscow. She didn't have enough money to have a computer or the Internet all the time. Normally she just went to an Internet cafe and had a computer specially reserved for her. " May I join you Sergio? I need something to do. And I don't mind reading a bit," Karyan answered. Sergio nodded, smiling. Karyan got to her feet and pushed her chair in. Their pace was slow and thoughtful as the two made their way up to the library. Two massive wooden doors stood at the entrance of the seemingly gigantic entrance. Karyan took one iron handle, and Sergio the other. Pulling the two giant wooden doors open, Sergio and Karyan saw the biggest library they had seen in their lives. The room was very large and circular. There was three stories of books, all looked like they hadn't been used in a long time. Dust floated in the air. You could see the small particles floating around in the soft sunlight. The room almost had an ancient magical feel to it. Karyan gasped softly. She stepped into the room, looking around in awe. Every step she took, a small dust puff rose from the floor. Sergio followed her, looking up at the books too. " This is amazing," Karyan said. " I agree. Very." " How many books do you think are in here?" Karyan wondered. Sergio was silent for while, probably trying to calculate the amount in his head. After a few moments, he let out a sigh. " I don't know. Close to the thousands I expect." The stairs creaked under Karyan's steps. She looked at all the shelves in amazement. " I wonder if the Master has every kind of book in here?" " Kind?" " Genre. Like science fiction, historical, theatrical, philosophical." " Most likely." Another moment's silence and Karyan found an interesting section on fantasy. Sergio had wandered off to find some books he desired to read. Fingering down the spines of some books, Karyan looked at the covers. Most were tattered and old, but some looked as though they had never been touched. Picking out several that looked interesting, Karyan walked back down the stairs and waited for Sergio.

[COLOR=Indigo][FONT=Trebuchet MS][size=3][b][u][center]TATTOO[/u][/size] Tattoos. They are an ancient form of body art. I have a pair of wings tattooed onto my shoulders and a dark blue dragon tattooed onto the small of my back. Some cultures believe that tattoos are the weaving of legends and are the captors of spirits. I never believed in magic or the paranormal. That was until I met [u]him[/u]. Last summer, I flew to New Zealand for a vacation. I was visiting Milford Sound when an elderly Maoui chief confronted me. Greatly detailed tattoos covered his face and arms. Tradition he said - tradition that he was proud of. He was the one that made me believe. The one that made me realise that there are other forces at work in this world. And that I could harness them. _______________________________[/center][/b] Welcome to my newest RPG. I haven't done a lone RPG for a while, so I hope this one does well. It will have a plot that will eventuate. If you are curious about where the story is headed, just PM me. I'll give you a general overview. - Here is the sign-up - [b]Name:[/b] [b]Age:[/b] [between 20 - 30] [b]Gender:[/b] [b]Origin:[/b] [b]Appearance:[/b] [picture or written description] [b]History:[/b] [good paragraph should be suffice] [b]Personality:[/b] [good paragraph] [b]Tattoo/s:[/b] [limit two.

Her father had died before she was born from a workplace related accident. He was a fisherman and fell overboard at sea on a stormy night. His body was never found. Growing up in the Greek Isles, Lani was used to the sea and the water. Her love for adventure and the ocean grew as she got older. She used to swim a lot around the island she grew up on, finding caves to explore. When Lani grew older, she began studying as a marine biologist. Her love for the sea and everything in it was evident in her studies. Her passion and devotion was realised by her professors and they gave her an experience of a lifetime - travelling around the world doing research for the university she was attending. [b]Personality:[/b] Lani is much like the ocean. Most of the time she is cool and calm. When she is in this mood, Lani is friendly and a great person to be around. However, sometimes the ocean can turn cold, stormy and dangerous. It is the same with Lani. When she sees someone or something being mistreated, she will not let the offender go without punishment. Sometimes, this gets her into a lot of trouble. [b]Tattoo/s:[/b] A pair of angelic wings, one wing on each shoulder blade. And a dark blue dragon on the small of back.

[COLOR=DarkSlateBlue][FONT=Trebuchet MS]Soft sunlight hit Karyan in the face. It warmed her whole body as she slowly opened her eyes. Slowly sitting up, Karyan looked around the room. She sighed loudly. Walking into the bathroom, Karyan stripped off and started the shower. Warm mists of vapour rose around her naked body. Sunlight filtered through the half open window to the bathroom. [i]I wonder what happened to everyone last night. It seemed like a lot happened to a lot of people. Not just myself. I wonder who that new guy is. I think I'll go see.[/i] After spending a long time in the shower, letting the warm water run all over her body, Karyan dressed herself in some long black cargo pants and a turtle-neck black jumper. She exited her room and walked down to the hall. Without watching where she was going, Karyan bumped straight into Sergio, who had just came out of his room. " Sergio....I'm sorry...I didn't see you." " It's ok Karyan. What were you doing?" " I was going to see the new guy. Syn...." Sergio froze for a second before regaining his composure. " You okay Sergio?" Karyan asked kindly. " Yes. I'll come with you." " Do you really want to?" Karyan asked, a slight red tinge appeared on her white cheeks. " Sure." They walked down the hallway togetherand knocked on Syn's room. There was no answer. The door was slightly open. " Hmm...." Karyan mumbled. She pushed the door open and walked in, Sergio at her back. " WHAT THE HELL!" she yelled. What she saw was Syn laying on the door, not moving. A pool of blood lay around him. Karyan stood there frozen. " Is ....is he dead?" " I don't know," Sergio said. Karyan walked over to Syn and checked his pulse. There was none. " He's dead." " How?" " I don't know. Looks like stabbed to death. What a horrible way to die." Sergio felt a pang of guilt in his stomach. He wanted to not look at Syn, but he had to accompany Karyan in here, even if he was guilty of it. Karyan stood, gathered a sheet from the bed and layed it over Syn respectfully. She walked out of the room and summoned a servant. " Tell the Master that someone has been murdered. And the body needs to be moved and given a proper burial." The servant nodded and rushed awy to inform the Master. Karyan turned to Sergio. " Lets leave. I don't want to be here when they remove the body." " Sure." Both of them walked to breakfast hall. When they sat down, food was presented to them and they chose their meals. Karyan began to eat slowly, but the image of Syn's dead body kept floating through her mind. She pushed her plate away from her. Sergio had done the same, but minutes before. " Can't eat?" Karyan asked. Sergio nodded. " Neither can I."[/COLOR][/FONT]

[COLOR=Purple][FONT=Trebuchet MS]Namia looked at the campfire longingly. Tanken/Reki had regained a little of his memory, but none that concerned Namia. It hurt her a lot, that his memory was gone. But she was strong, and growing stronger with every passing moment. Something out of the corner of her eye attracted her attention. She saw someone sneak out of the camp. Then Namia realised it was Halthan. Another sad emotion was added to her collection. Getting up and walking to his tent, Namia found the note he had left, Reason laying on top of the note to hold it down. Tears rolled down her cheeks. It was sad seeing him go, when he had contributed so much to their cause. Reading through the note carefully, Namia gripped the gun tighter and tighter. When she came to the last part, she chuckled loudly - the comment amused her. Finally she let the note flutter to the ground. " Oh Halthan....you will be sorely missed my friend....very sorely missed...." Namia said softly. Picking up the gun, and taking a mental note of the gold Halthan wished for compensation, Namia walked back to her tent. Tanken/Reki had made himself another bed to sleep in, one the opposite side of the tent to Namia's bed. " Tanken...." Tanken/Reki didn't respond. " Reki..." This time he did. He turned and looked up at Namia who held Reason on her hands. " Yes Namia?" Tanken/Reki purred in Myrhrr. " Halthan has gone. He's left the group..." A wry smile came to Namia's lips. " But he expects compensation for his services." " Halthan?" Tanken/Reki asked confused. " The guy with the British accent," Namia explained tirelessly. " Oh. Right. Is that his gun?" " Yes. Reason." " Who are you going to give it to?" " I don't know. I think I'll keep it until I see Halthan again. It's his weapon. It deserves no one else but him." " I agree." Namia walked to her bed and lay Reason gently on the sheets. She sighed loudly before turning around and going out of the tent again. Gathering everyone to the campfire, Namia - the designated leader - began to discuss plans for attack on their next target - Varkas, the trade city. " We have the founding maps for Varkas. We need to plan an attack of some sort. I've heard from various sources that Marich has been there of late. There is a good chance that he is still there," Namia said, looking every person in the eyes. Their ranks had dminished somewhat. With Halthan's departure, and Terra, Vaxla and Vincent's disappearance, their combined strength had diminished. And with Tanken's amnesia, everything that could go wrong, was going wrong. " Lets see," Sabin commented. He thought a while, looking over the map. " It looks heavily defended. There are three barracks designated on this map, but I doubt that is all of them. You said these were founding maps. There is no doubt that there have been more developments since the city was founded." " I see your point Sabin," Namia replied, " But I obtained these maps because they show weaknesses in the structures of the outer walls, and the castle that resides in the middle of the city. There is no doubt in my mind, that if Marich is residing in the city when we get there, that he'll be in that castle." Cairo and Densi looked at Namia and Sabin as they continued to discuss plans. In a few hours, they had formulated one that would get them into the city, undetected, and into the castle, without their loyalties being tested. At daybreak, they would execute this plan.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed][FONT=Trebuchet MS]Ashrel looked at Maaya and then at Amaya, Ishizu and Marou. A few more servant girls gathered around the group. "This castle is under constant attack, and it will not last long. We need to do something," said Maaya. " Yes. Come. Lets put out the fires. Find anything that is not flammable, and try and beat the fires out," Ashrel said, leading the way to put out the fires. There was to be no more fighing for Ashrel. Her condition had weakened tremensely and she could barely fight for any longer than a few minutes. The training session with Amaya had drained her of her remaining strength. The ex-servants gathered what they could and started to put out the fires. Beating them out, using soot to smother the fires, they used any device at their desposal, except for water. Ashrel looked outside and saw the Sir Marquise had returned with more forces. He was fighting amongst his countrymen. A soft warm feeling spread throughout Ashrel's body - one she hadn't felt since her first meeting with Damion. With the fires now extinguished in this part of the castle, Ashrel gathered everyone to execute the plan she had formulated in her head while fire-fighting. " Continue onto the parts of the castle where there isn't any fighting. If fighting does outbreak in the part of the castle where you are putting out the fires, use the secret passageways out of the castle." Ashrel handed Amaya, Maaya, Ishizu and Marou a map each. " These show the tunnels. Now, I must join the battle. Good luck my friends." With that she left in a whirl of her cape. Walking to the battle front, Ashrel easily made her way into the fray of blood and bodies. She had only one sword with her - she had left Amaya with her other - a parting gift. Managing to dodge any attack aimed at her, Ashrel made her way quickly to Rion. Suddenly a burly man moved in between her and Rion. He aimed his sword at her neck. " Now what are you doing ey missie?" he said. Ashrel looked at him with indifferent eyes. " I want to speak to Sir Marquise." " Speak or kill. There's a big difference missie." He grabbed her roughly by the arm. His grip was tight and strong. Ashrel was no match for him in her weakened state - even with her skills with her sword. He dragged her over to Rion and placed her before the leader of the army. Rion looked surprised at Ashrel. " My Lady Ashrel." " Sir Marquise." " Now did you come to be captured?" " I was merely wanting to talk to you, when your bodyguard arrested me in a matter of sorts." " Ah." " What shall I do with her my Lord?" the man asked. Ashrel moved uncomfortably around - she had never been in this situation before. Usually she was the one deciding what fate her prisoner should face. " Put her on the back of my horse. She and I are going to have a long chat," Rion said. The man practically threw Ashrel on the back of the horse. Rion steered the stallion around and headed back towards a safer place where they could talk without any interuptions.[/COLOR][/FONT]

[COLOR=DarkRed][FONT=Trebuchet MS]Soon, the plane started to descend. The city of Hong Kong sprawled out below the plane as it glided gently over to the taxiway in a small airport. M sat silently next to Andy who looked around, observing that most of the team members had affections of their own within the team. Feeling happy for them, Andy turned around to face her own problem, M. She wasn't angry at him, nor was she calm with him. Not decided would be the appropriate feeling Andy felt towards M. Neither of them had talked and the awkward silence between them was growing. She turned to M, trying to find the words to ask him what this was all about. " M..." M turned to Andy, smiling. " Yes Andy?" " Well....." The plane jumped up and down, signalling their arrival at the airport. " Can we talk about it later Andy?" M asked, as he undid his seatbealt and waited for the plane to be taxied into a terminal. " But M....I...." " Please...not now Andy...." She felt tears well up in her eyes but she fought them back and put on a dark face. Walking out of the plane, all carrying their luggage, Team Heaven strode into the airport. Not a single soul was around. They all found this very strange. Commander Red looked around. " Hmm....there was supposed to be a correspondant here waiting for us." " A correspondant?" Lee asked. " Another like yourselves. But nowhere near any of your capabilities." Suddenly a beeping noise was heard. One of the small airport carts came racing down the carpetted alleyway. Team Heaven swivelled around to the source of the noise. Two carts approached them and stopped right in front of them. An Asian man dressed in a suit hoped out of the first cart. He had short straight black hair and slanted eyes - a stereotypical Asian. Andy looked at this man, wondering what kind of abilities he had, even though they weren't at Team Heaven's level. Commander Red approached the man. " Ah. Finally. I was wondering when you would be along." The two men shook hands firmly. " We had a slight problem with transporting Team Heaven. I did not realise there was so many members of this calibur," the Asian man said in perfect English. Commander Red turned to the Team. " This is Aiko Jung. He is a exorcist of sorts. That's why he is based in Hong Kong at this present time." " Yes. Well, the reason why I have been relocated here....well... I think it's best if you get to see it first hand." They all clambered onto the carts and drove off to the luggage zone where normally you would reclaim your luggage back from the flight. Two large cars were parked inside the building. " Why are the cars parked inside?" Ivy asked. " The virus you investigated in South China. It has spread here. And killed most of the population. The only ones spared were the ones who were in air-tight compartments like air-conditioned apartments and buildings. Everyone outside when they caught the virus, died within 48 hours of contracting it," Aiko replied. " The virus is air-borne." Stepping into the cars, Team Heaven was divided and mostly not to their liking. Commander Red, Andy, Ivy, Taikaru and Julius in one and M, Eric, Carl, Farel and Lee in the other. As soon as they all climbed into the car, the doors shut and the drivers drove them out of the building. [b]OOC: There are supposed to be dead bodies all over the streets. So keep discussing the virus and stuff. Lol. And talk to everyone else of course.[/b][/COLOR][/FONT]

[COLOR=Blue][FONT=Trebuchet MS]Ok. I was just wondering what kind of RPGs everyon likes and which ones appeal to them the most. Can you also post and explain why? I'm just doing some market research. :p[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed][FONT=Trebuchet MS]Ashrel looked at Amaya and gave a rare smile. " If you wish to learn, then I will teach you." Amaya bowed curtly. " There is no need to bow anymore Amaya. I am changing back into my real self. You have no need to bow to me anymore," Ashrel said softly. Amaya looked Ashrel in the eyes. She could see that her eyes were softening ever so slowly. [center]************************************[/center] Ashrel did not mean to be harsh to Sarah, but her jealousy of Sarah's relationship with Damion always made the green-eyed monster come out. Sighing to herself, Ashrel made her way slowly to the courtyard in which she and Amaya had decided to meet in for Amaya's first lesson. Upon entering the courtyard, Ashrel saw Amaya standing there, fiddling nervously. Confronting the nervous girl, Ashrel withdrew both of her swords from their sheaths. " Amaya, catch!" Throwing one of the perfectly balanced swords to Amaya, who turned around in surprise and caught it awkwardly. " First rule of battle. Never let your opponent see that you are frightened of the outcome of battle - whether it be death, injury or victory." Amaya nodded. Ashrel walked over to her and showed her the correct way of holding the sword. It glistened in the sun as the sounds of battle in the city outside the castle echoed through the air. Then Ashrel began showing her how to defend. Being able to defend well was more important than being able to attack at any level. Twirling around, Ashrel attacked Amaya furiously. Amaya's instincts saved her most of the time, but as the lesson progressed, Amaya learnt how to predict an opponent's move and block it easily. Before long, Amaya was blocking every single attack Ashrel threw at her. " Well done Amaya. I haven't taught anyone before, other than myself, but you are doing splendidly." " Thank you." Amaya went to bow but Ashrel caught her by the shoulder. " Remember. You have no need to bow to me." " Make I ask why?" " You are higher than I. I have let my morals and life slip away. You are in higher respect than I." Amaya was amazed at Ashrel's words, however, privately, she agreed. " Now, lets continue. You've done well defending. Now lets concentrate on attacking." Ashrel held up one of her swords in a defensive position, waiting for Amaya to attack. [b]OOC: Sorry I couldn't reply in the last chapter Aiyanna. But here is it.[/b][/COLOR][/FONT]

[COLOR=DarkRed][FONT=Trebuchet MS][b]OOC: Since things aren't moving along because Kairi hasn't replied lately, I think I'll try and get something going.[/b] Andy and M sat at one of the tables in the dining hall in silence. They hardly talked to each other as they ate. It was strange. They had made so much noise last night during their love-making, and now neither of them wanted to look each other in the eyes. After breakfast, both of them stod silently and both walked back to the common room. There was no verbal agreement to do this, but it seemed like they had some sort of mental connection after their night together. Walking down the hall, they passed the training room. Andy looked inside. There were two men standing opposite one another, each with a wooden sword in their hands. One was Eric, but the other Andy couldn't recognise. He was a strapping young man. Andy smiled to herself as she thought of M fondly. Walking into the training room, Andy walked in between the two men. M continued on to the common room alone. " Excuse me Eric. Can I just interrupt for a second?" Andy asked. " Sure. Good time for a breather anyway," Eric replied, leaning on his wooden sword lightly. Andy turned to the new guy. " My name's Andy," she said, putting out her hand in a friendly gesture. The unknown man took it. " Julius." " Nice to meet you Julius. So, what are you here for?" " What do you mean?" Julius replied, overanalysing what she was saying. " Sorry. I mean what powers do you have?" " Oh. I analysise things five times faster than a normal human." " Impressive." " Thanks. What are yours?" " Pyrokinetic." As Andy said that, a ball of flame appeared in her left hand, the one that wasn't able to summon fire. When Andy realised this, she swore loudly. " What's the matter?" Eric asked, jumping up in shock at the loud swear. " N...Nothing....just....nothing...." Andy said, staring at her left hand in amazement. Something has happened to her - something to do with her tattoo. Julius and Eric looked at Andy with strange looks as she exited the training room quickly. " What was all that about?" Julius asked. Meanwhile, Andy was running down the corridor towards the common room. Bursting through the doors, she quickly looked around for M. She heard murmurs from a room nearby. Walking towards them, she realised that they were M's and Commander Red's voices. Something was up. Creeping closer, Andy began to make out what the two were saying. " ...The situation is worse than we thought M..." '' How so?" " The virus that you were sent to investigate in South China. There has been another outbreak." " Where?" " Rome." " Rome?!? How did it get there?" " We don't know. But we've cordined off the infected area. But we need Team Heaven to investigate." " This better not be like the last two missions Red." Andy heard a definite growl in M's voice. A very threatening growl. " ..........Of course not." " Good. When do you want us deployed?" " First you have to go to Hong Kong for two days. Find out as much as you can about that thing we were discussing. Then move to Rome asap. We can't have any more outbreaks like this." " I agree Red." Hearing that they had finished their discussion, Andy moved quickly from the corridor that led to M's room, where the two had had their metting, and into the common room. She busily found something to do. M and Red walked out of the corridor. Red continued on to go out of the common room, where M walked into the common room, finding Andy. A wry smile spread across his lips. Andy made herself not notice M was there. Silently, M walked over to Andy and slipped his arms around her waist. " Well hello again," he said softly. A red tinge appeared on Andy's cheeks. " Hey..." " We have another mission. Care to get ready?" Andy nodded. She looked M in the eyes but tore them away, trying not to let him know that she had eavesdropped on his and Commander Red's conversation. " Right. I'll get the others. We move out in an hour. Can you pack some stuff for me please?" " Sure." " Thank you Andy." He kissed her deeply on the lips before giving her a hug and then leaving to gather the others. Andy watched M's retreating back sadly. What was he hiding from her? What was that 'thing' he and Commander Red were talking about? These were questions that needed to be answered - and quickly. [b]An hour later...[/b] Andy waited out on the tarmac with two bags at her feet - one for M, one for her. The small aeroplane waited silently for the other team members to emerge from the base. [b]OOC: Ok. Sorry Kairi but I don't want this RPG to die.[/b][/FONT][/COLOR]

You did go on a banner, avi making craze! I like them all. But I agree with Retribution about some of the thigns he said. You're doing very well. Just needs fine tuning.

Yeah I do love them. Thanks guys!

[COLOR=Red][FONT=Trebuchet MS]Sora looked over the stadium as it was being repaired hastily for the next match. Then she looked at the sky. She hoped that Sayne would soon return to her. Tears started forming in her eyes. Hoping that the serum would wear off by the time he returned, that's if he did, Sora turned away and went to gather the others for the upcoming battle. Going down the many flights of stairs into the base, images of Sayne floated across her mind's eye. All Sora wanted was Sayne. To feel him close beside her. She was starting to worry about him. It had been four hours since he took off towards LS One. Darrius had made a surprise return and saved Kai and Jinn, with the unsurpassable help of Ajack. Wondering if Ajack and Lyu would ever get back together, Sora walked to the main common room to see all of the pilots standing there. She cleared her throat to gain their attention. They all turned to her. " Your match will be in an hour. I think you guys need to get ready. As you know, it's another team battle. Are you all sure you're all up to it?" They all nodded. " Ok. See you out there then. Keiji, could you come with me." Keiji stood up from his seat and walked behind Sora as she walked to her and Sayne's room. Closing the door behidn them, Keiji and Sora sat down on the couch. " What's up Sora?" Keiji asked kindly. " I'm worried about Sayne Keiji," Sora replied. [b]OOC: There you go Retribution.[/b][/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed][FONT=Trebuchet MS][b]OOC: Now that's what you call a sex scene.[/b] [i]The next morning...[/i] Soft sunlight woke M. Slowly opening his eyes, he saw Andy laying on her stomach, naked, next to him. A smile spread on his lips. Then he noticed something. There seemed to a golden glow around Andy and it wasn't from the sunlight. The sheets of the bed were pulled down and resided just on her buttocks. Her tattoo of the phoenix glowed a brilliant gold in the sunlight and then disappeared. M's eyes widened with shock. " What.....how.....her dampener is gone...." A slight groan from Andy signalled her awakening. M lay on his side, looking over her naked body. Andy turned her head to see M looking at her with approving eyes. Her eyes crinkled into a smile. " What are you looking at?" " You..." " What about me?" " How beautiful you are when you're naked." Andy blushed scarlet. Mi kissed her on the forehead. Andy sat up and rested her head on M's chest. " I feel different M. I don't know how to explain it." M smiled. She couldn't see that she was glowing with the essence of the flame, nor could she see that her burden had been finally lifted from her. " What are we going to do now M? No doubt the others would have heard us..." Andy whispered, apparently embarrassed at the amount of noise they made the night before. " Well, we need something to eat. Some strength for us from our night." Andy kissed M deeply before they both got out of the bed and put on their freshly washed clothes. Walking out of the room, they went to the dining hall to have something to eat for breakfast.[/COLOR][/FONT]

Can anyone tell me about Magna Carta? And where I can get media for it? Like pictures, music, videos, stuff like that. Thanks.

[COLOR=DarkSlateBlue][FONT=Trebuchet MS]Karyan lay in her bed, restless. The sounds of a scruffle outside had awoken her. Now she couldn't get to sleep. The desire of someone to be next to her was almost too hard to bear. Placing a dark blue satin robe over her naked body, Karyan walked out into the hall, looking right and left. A figure came down the hall. Karyan squinted to see who it was. Marcus appeared in the light. " Marcus...." Karyan wrapped her robe over her more tightly. " What happened? You looked like you were in a fight." " Tre, Imogen and Sean got taken away. I don't where they are now." " What? How?" " Guards took them. I tried to get them back, but there was just too many of the guards." Karyan stayed silent after that. She was increasingly liking him, but she started to like Sean and Sergio as well. Was her desire for companionship becoming out of control? She looked at Marcus, who looked a bit ruffled. " Are....are you okay?" " Well....Alex tried to kiss me...she did actually.....but I pushed her away." A spark of jealousy flitted across Karyan's mind. She was going to confront this Alex person. She wasn't one to back down at all. " Don't you want affection?" Karyan asked nervously. This had been one of the first times in her life she had been nervous. " Just not from her. She seems a little strange to me." " Oh." " Well good-night Karyan." " Good night Marcus." She watched him walk to his room and close the door behind him. Turning back into her own, Karyan hopped onto bed and uneasily fell into a shallow doze. She dreamt of being with all three of the guys she had a crush on. It was a very strange dream. But a good one. [b]OOC: I think it's time for another card for Karyan.[/b][/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkSlateBlue][FONT=Trebuchet MS]Karyan heard a yelp from Sean's room. Quickyl she bandaged her arm tightly, stopping the blood flow, and wiped off the blood that had trickled down her arm. She hastily walked out of her room and made her way to Sean's room. " Sean?" There was no answer. Karyan knocked on the door. No answer again. Then she noticed that there was no light in the room. She slammed the door open, letting light flow into the room. She saw Sean shaking on his bed, apparently sleeping. Karyan rushed over to him and shoke him awake. " Sean! Sean!" " ......Huh....what?" " Why the hell did you turn your light off!!! You know you just broke a rule!!!" Karyan said angrily. On the outside Karyan seems like she doesn't care, but on the inside is a different story. " Sorry! It was just a reaction when I go to bed." " Just don't do it again." " I didn't know you were so caring Karyan." " I'm....I'm not. I just thought......" Karyan stopped mid-sentence. Whatever she was going to say, it would mean that she did care. " Just don't do it again." She waited for Sean's reaction.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed][FONT=Trebuchet MS][b]OOC: For all of those who don't want to read this post (because it is an intimate moment between Andy and M), just move on. I just wanted to put this as a warning.[/b] A small breeze came through the door as M opened it. It ruffled the fire feathers of Andy's Phoenix. It awoke and looked at M approach Andy, who was sleeping peacefully. The bird of flame watched M very very carefully, sensing the full extent of M's powers. M slowly made his way over to Andy and sat on the edge of her bed, looking over her slowly. She looked so peaceful, laying there silently. It looked like she wasn't having any nightmares, and the hauntings over her past weren't haunting her anymore. He lovingly brushed his hand across her cheek. It was warm. Not hot, like her body usually felt, just warm. The Phoenix bent low from its perch and positioned its head next to Andy's. It looked like it was speaking to her. M looked at the Phoenix strangely. It seemed to have a golden glow about it. Something he had never seen before. M looked back at Andy who had a small smile on her face. " I was wondering when you would come by." M smiled. She was awake the whole time he had been in there. " Farel's doing alright. He came out of the coma. And Taikaru is there for him. I don't know how Lee is doing though. Haven't seen him since we arrived." " Oh. And what about you M?" " What about me?" " How are you doing?" An expression of fear flitted across Andy's face. M saw it. " You mean with Red?" Andy nodded. " Well, I don't know. We sorted the thing out. Did you overhear my conversation with him?" Andy nodded again. " You scared me a little M. You just seemed so dark, and, well, evil." M looked shocked at Andy's choice of words. He didn't feel evil when he did it, but from anyone else's perspective, he might have looked it. He looked Andy in the eyes. " I wouldn't do anything to hurt my friends." " I certainly hope not. Otherwise I'll burn you to a crisp." M laughed. Andy just smiled. There was an awkward silence after that. Andy looked at the roof, avoiding M's gaze. And M was looking at the wall, avoiding Andy's gaze. Suddenly M felt Andy stroke his arm. The sensation of a light, tantalising touch shivered up his spine. He looked over to Andy who smiled at him. She sat up and whispered into his ear. " You said ' When this mission is over.......I'll give all of myself for you...whatever you want to know about me....or do'. M.....please....I want to know....what it feels like....to be....to be loved." M looked at Andy. He could tell she was nervous. Nervous about what she wanted to do with him this very moment. He smiled knowingly. M turned to face her and kissed her, slowly and passionately. Andy closed her eyes and leant close to him, feeling the warmth radiate from his body. She felt M's hands slide down both her arms and fall onto her hips. Slowly, very slowly, he masterfully pulled her shirt off her body, revealing the top half of her body, with only a black bra on. Andy's heart-rate quickened. Her breathing became shallow and faster. Andy kissed M back just as passionately. She felt desire starting to run through her veins. She felt the temperature of the room jump and she felt M's heart-beat also quickening. Carefully, she took M's short off, revealing the scars of the operation to attach his mechanical arm. Breaking away from the kiss, she drew her index finger over the large scar all the way around. M shivered at the touch. Tracing Andy's breasts with soft fingers, M drew her close and ran his hands slowly down her sides. Andy softly moaned. Whether it was a release of anticipation, or from the sheer pleasure of touch, M didn't know. But nonetheless, it excited him. Feeling their bare skin touch as M lay Andy down on the bed, M began to kiss. First he started at the neck. Andy shivered in anticipation. Then he continued downwards. Around the breasts, above her stomach, around her navel and finally stopped at her pant line. A look of estasy was upon Andy's face. Slowly, M undid the top button to Andy's pants and unzipped the zipper. Inch by inch, he slid her pants off, revealing a pair of lacey black underwear, and threw them on the ground beside the bed. Andy arched her back as M kissed down her stomach again. Her whole body was trembling from the sensations she was receiving. M leant down, pressing his masculine body against Andy's feminine one. He drew her close and whispered into her ear, " Turn over." Andy did so willingly. M stroked a finger down her spine and began to kiss the back of her shoulders, and then down her spine. She had never experienced anything like this before. It was a fire unlike any she could summon - a warmth she never knew. As M continued down her back, Andy felt like she had wings. She felt like she could soar into the skies and forget everything that ever happened to her. Turning back over, he kissed her on the lips deeply. A rush of exhilaration ran through both of their bodies. M took his pants off, revealing a pair of black cotton boxers, and threw them onto the floor, near Andy's. He massaged Andy's breasts gently with his hands before sliding his hands behind her back to unclasp the bra. Taking it off, M took off his boxers. Finally, he masterfully took off the last piece of clothing between the both of them. Looking into each other's eyes, M slowly penetrated Andy. Moans came from both of their lips. [b]OOC: there you go kairi. finish it off.[/b][/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=Purple][FONT=Trebuchet MS]Nye walked down the hall. Keitha followed obiedently. Turning into a large spacious room, both vampires saw Lana looking out of the window with her wings outstretched to their full extent. " Lana. Put them away," Nye scolded her. The wings disappeared back into Lana's shoulders as she turned around. Seeing Keitha standing next to Nye, a mixture of feelings spread over the vampiress's face. Keitha could see was battling herself internally. " Lady Keitha has decided to join us for whatever time she deems so," Nye said strongly. Lana merely nodded. She was too tired of fighting against Keitha to care at this present moment in time. All of them stood in an awkward silence for a few moments before Keitha commented. " You have grown Nye. A lot since I have last seen you." Nye nodded. " Lady Lana here helped me grow. I think I have become stronger than my father. I hope to become like him. Strong." " You will Nye. You are already becoming like your father. Your father was a great man." Lana stayed silent. She went to looking back out of the window at the dark sky. Keitha looked over at Lana then back at Nye. " Come with me Keitha." He walked out of the room and into the next. They had the whole hotel to themselves. It was the Gyshram hotel in Japan. Nye turned to Keitha suddenly. " Lana desires that you don't leave her behind," he said simply. Keitha looked rather confused at what he was trying to say. " I don't understand Nye." " When we were returning to this hotel, she said something about always leaving her behind in Australia." " Oh...." " Lana does miss you Keitha. She thinks very highly of you. She doesn't realise what you did to, you weren't in control of." " It would be hard for her. When she saw me as always in control." " Lana is becoming like you Keitha. Her bloodlust is growing. I don't know what to do. I don't want her making the same mistakes as you." " I don't know what to do either Nye. You'll just have to keep a watch on her." Nye nodded silently. He cared for Lana like no one else, not even Keitha. But he wasn't going to show his emotions to Lana when she was already in a confused state of mind. " At midnight, we go see Kuroichi." [center]*************************[/center] [b]Midnight...[/b] Lana, Keitha and Nye walked out of the hotel and onto the dark street. Nye had left Parilth in charge until either Lana or himself returned. Until then, the three Gyshram were on their way to meet with Kuroichi. [b]OOC: ULX, if you would be so kind to take it from there. We wish to inform you of thre Gyshram's direct involvement. Thanks.[/b][/COLOR][/FONT]

[COLOR=DarkSlateBlue][FONT=Trebuchet MS]Karyan looked down at her envelope and opened it slowly. Taking our the piece of card inside, she read the embossed letters carefully, so no one would see her cards. A glint of anger flicked across her eyes as Karyan read the card. She growled to herself. [i]This man is content with torturing me. Very well. I shall play his game.[/i] Standing up, and gathering the courage to speak about her past, Karyan cleared her throat. Everyone looked at her, wondering what the hell she was doing. " I want to tell you all something that is personal to me." She took in a deep breath and breathed out slowly, calming herself. " Everytime I get close to someone, they are taken away from me. By either death, or absence. They just leave me there alone. I have lived my entire life alone. My parents and siblings were killed by the Russian Army because my father refused to be conscripted because I was aonly 3. I used to be a street-kid. Run around after rats, trying to eat whatever I could get my hands on. And in Moscow, if you're caught by the authorities, you are taken to an adoption agency until they kick you out again onto the streets because no one wants a street kid." With that, Karyan left the table and walked to her room. The Master was definitely playing with her head. She growled again, revealing something that close to her heart in front of everyone. Kicking the door open to her room, she undressed quickly and walked to the bathroom. Taking out a razor blade, Karyan cut herself in the arm deeply. " You stupid stupid girl Karyan."[/COLOR][/FONT]

[COLOR=DarkRed][FONT=Trebuchet MS][b]OOC: This will be my last post in this chapter.[/b] Ashrel stood there at the table, alone. All the nobles and servants had left. She just sat there alone. Looking at the table, Ashrel flicked through the events of the day. Feeling a sense of broken heart-ness sweep over her, she realised that Damion would never fall for her. Even if Sarah wasn't around. A tear fell from her eye. It was a hard fact to accept. Ashrel wished he'd show her at least one piece of affection before she died. The doctor told her that she had only a few more months to live. Coughing again, Ashrel wiped the blood from her mouth absent-mindedly. She was going to die alone. And that fact hurt her more then anything.[/COLOR][/FONT]
