Redemption

[COLOR=DarkOrange]Hunter smiled at Till and looked around. Fire trucks, ambulance and police had all arrived, causing chaos for the motorists. Her plan had worked. Hunter scanned the still traffic jam for a vehicle big enough for them to hitch a ride on. A large frieghting truck came into view. It was right at the beginning of the line up. [I] Perfect....[/I] Hunter turned to the others. " See that truck," she said, pointing at it, " We're going on that. We're all going to have to get into it or on top of it. Any suggestions?" Reis spoke up. " How long do you think it will take for the line to start moving again? I don't want to be cooped up in a frieght container." " I estimate it to be about twenty minutes. Give or take a few," Jim answered quickly. " Right then. Lets go. Till, can you move the illusion?" Asim said. Till nodded. " Lets go then..." Frankie said. The group moved over to the truck and climbed onto the top of it, seeing that the container was packed full. Till was the last to get on the top. Finally, he stopped the illusion, unable to sustain it any more. Then the real chaos started. Police helicopters whooshed over them and recognised them as the kids who'd run from the nearest city. The government had issued a warning, saying these kids were armed and very dangerous. A police officer held a megaphone to his mouth. " You kids on the truck. STOP IMMEDIATELY! You are under arrest for being wanted suspects!" The group looked up. Asim snarled in anger. " Fools......" Thankfully, the truck started moving and gained speed. The helicopter flew after them. The truck driver wasn't aware of the extra load he was carrying. In a few minutes, they were speeding along the highway to Washington. The police helicopter kept a close survalliance on them, trying to contact the driver so he could stop. __________________________ Fifteen minutes later, they were in the industral section of Washington DC. The truck pulled into a government facility. Hunter swore. " Everyone off! It's the enemy!" Everyone managed to jump off the slow truck and land in a floodway on the side of the road. Mud splattered across everyone as it had just recently rained. Reis looked around. The facility the truck had just turned into was a biochemical plant. " I wonder what they do in there?" he wondered out aloud. " I don't want to know," Hunter growled, " Lets go sometwhere where we can be safe." Everyone walked in a huddled group behind Hunter who looked around for anywhere they could stay. They walked for about two hours when Hunter stopped. Till ran straight into her as he was talking to Frankie. " Ouch!" " Sorry Hunter...." " That's ok." They had walked into a slum area. Hunter looked up at some of the apartments. " Looks like they could have a spare room for a group of kids. Oh, and I forgot to ask you guys, do you have any money?" They all shook their heads. " Damn." " Actually, I could get some..." Asim realised. " Good. Well we'll go and look for a apartment while you get some money Asim." " Alright." The group dispersed, walking into buildings to find a bug apartment for all of them to share.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange]Ziarre and Rath watched Zet battle the demon Cold. Rath growled. " I know Rath. Zet is weakening, her human blood is rnning from her veins. But do we help her?" [I]That's a stupid question to ask. Zet is one of your greatest friends. Are you going to leave her at the mercy of this powerful demon?[/I] " And Ranpu isn't here. She's doing it alone. She doesn't need to...." Ziarre trailed off. She could also sense Zet's gorwing demon side. Like her, Ziarre was also half demon although she hated to admit it. The demon's cold flames heated Ziarre's fire, making it more fierced. " you do realise that we'll be denting her pride if we go in now Rath," Ziarre said to her silvery-tan coated cougar partner. [I] I know but Ranpu isn't here to help her.....she needs him. Why did she him away?[/I] " You expect me to know." With that, the two jumped down from a high steel joining mast and landed in front of Zet, who was standing very feebly. Ziarre's black trenchcoat fluttered out behind her as she stood up. Heat waves radiated from her. " Ziarre....Rath....." she said, feeling weak. " Rath, take Zet back to the mansion. Get Night to heal her and explain to her why I'm here," Ziarre said to her companion, her gaze firmly on the demon. Rath sidled around to Zet and made her hop on his back. [I]Will you be okay Ziarre?[/I] " I'll be fine. He hurt my Zet. He won't get away with it," Ziarre growled very cougar-like. Rath chuckled and bounded out of the tech centre. Ziarre stared the demon down. " You're going to have to deal with me now demon," Ziarre snarled. " So, you are a demoness as well," Cold taunted. " Yes, I am half demon, but I have dealt with my demon blood, and I hunt other demons because of my past." With that, Ziarre launched herself at the demon, fire exploding forth from her brilliant green eyes. OOC: I hope you don't mind Bloody Moon adn SwordBreaker. I just didn't know where to go from last post. IF you do, PM me and I'll change it. Oh and when Ziarre says my Zet, she means it in a sisterly way.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Purple]Brielle looked up at Heero being dragged away by some of the deformed dragons. Her blood boiled. " No one takes him away from me," she growled protectively. Cyrus dragged four other deformed dragons into the sky to try and get Heero back. Brielle ran over to Scythe, jumped on and took off, heading towards Heero. Bolts of lightning crashed to the ground. Scythe and Brielle, both full of magical power, dodged the lightning with ease. Scythe soon approached Heero being dragged through the air. Heero's blood splattered across Brielle's face, who wiped it away. The chains that held Heero to the dragon, especially the neck collar, cut into his flesh. Brielle drew her sword. Cyrus was close behind Scythe. With no care for her life, Brielle jumped off Scythe's back and arched her sword to cut through the chains. It sliced through them as if they were flesh. Heero, with the excessive weight of the iron chains, soon began plummeting to the ground. Brielle caught him and headed towards the ground. A sudden wind blew up underneath them, slowing them down from the awesome speed they were plummeting at. Within seconds, Brielle's feet touched the ground. She clutched Heero close to her in her arms. Cyrus landed heavily on the ground, so did Scythe. Ilthazar and Kai, along with the other men, watched this feat of daredevil proportions Brielle lay Heero gently down on the ground. She couldn't tell if he was conscious or not. But all she cared was that he was safe and next to her. With her bare hands, she ripped off the shackles and neck collar and threw them away. Raw red marks could be seen where the shackles had once been. A tear dropped onto Heero's chest from Brielle's eye. " I'm so sorry Heero for making you like this. I will kill Ilthazar if its the last thing I do." She stood up, gripping her sword tightly, look at Ilthazar with those pitch black eyes. Ilthazar stepped back one pace. " You are dead!" Brielle yelled and attacked Ilthazar. About 20 minutes later, Ilthazar definitely had the upper hand. Brielle was tired from doing her daredevil trick. Within another few seconds, Brielle was on the ground, underneath Ilthazar's sword. As well, Scythe was being attacked by Plejalta. Brielle panted and looked at him. " You win....." she said, defeated. OOC: Takuya, your turn.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]Chloe looked at Arora as she jumped out of the window. So far, she had turned in Sailor Saturn, Arora had changed into Sailor Mars, Azura into Sailor Moon and Ailiyah into Sailor Jupiter. Chloe gripped her glaive tightly. She looked at Anat. Everytime she looked at her, she became more and more infuriated. " How could you do this?" she asked. " Do what?" Anat replied, looking at her fingernails, uninterested. " Hurt innocents. What did they ever do to you?" " Lets just say I was following orders. And mind you, I did them well. Now my darling has found where his new threat is. Oh...here he comes now." The Sailor Scouts looked up into the sky, following Anat's gaze. A huge black hole appeared in the sky. A man with two snakes draped over each arm floated down and joined Anat. " Apophis...." Anat said gently, walking up to kiss him. He shoved her away after seeing the Sailor Scouts looking at him. " Well well well...is this the threat I've been sensing? Puny girls..........." He started laughing maniacally. Anat joined in. Chloe became more resolved to kick the hell out of these two. " You'll regret saying that!" Chloe yelled and launched a slicing attack of the glaive at Apophis. He did nothing and let her weapon hit him fair on his shaved forehead. Chloe leapt back in shock. She had tried her best and she hadn't even put a scratch on him. Apophis continued to laugh. " Puny...." He swept out his hand and a huge energy blast issued from it. It hurtled towards Chloe who stood there frozen. It hit her with such force that she was blown backwards into a brick wall. The wall crumbled as Chloe hit it. A pile of rumble resulted from the collison. Apophis and Anat laughed. They turned to the others. " Don't even try what your stupid friend did," Apophis said and both of them returned to their realm through the black hole in the sky. The Sailor Scouts looked in disbelief at the disappearing balck hole. Suddenly a black-skinned demon sprung up from the earth. " Oh, I thought I'd leave a little surprise for you others," Apophis's voice echoed through the sky. The demon licked its lips and attacked the standing Sailor Scouts.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]Ziarre looked at Night's retreating back. The expression of her face was that of hidden hurt. Rebecca had saved Night. Ziarre was about to use fire to create warm currents that would help him, but no, she had to go and save the day. She wanted to apologise to Night about not helping. She looked at Rath. " I just proved I am weak...." [I]Ziarre.......[/I] They both walked out of the ruined warehouse and towards the tech centre. All Ziarre could hear when she approached the tech centre was crashing and yelling. Rath growled, smelling demon. " I know Rath...Zet's in trouble....." Without a second thought, Ziarre and Rath sprinted towards the centre. OOC: ok bloody_moon, ur turn![/COLOR]

[COLOR=Purple]Brielle held her cheek with her hand in disbelief. Valo had just hit her. The initial shock dissapated. Her anger grew. She looked at Valo with pitch black eyes, just like she had the first battle the Riders ever fought. Dark spirits surrounded her. " Valo, you just pushed it....." Brielle hissed. For once, Valo was taken aback by her ferciosity. He looked at Scythe who nodded. Valo edged on. " You just used Heero for your own sick purposes, didn't you? How do you think he feels? Being used?" " SHUT UP! YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT!" Brielle screamed at him in reply. " You caged him like an animal. Left him for dead. You just love doing that...." Valo hissed. " I WOULD NEVER! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!" Brielle screamed, now holding her head. Heero looked at Brielle and then at Valo. Suddenly a bright silver light came from Scythe's chest and blinded everyone, including Ilthazar and Kai. When the light faded, Kai was no longer under the threat of Ilthazar. He was by Brielle's side, standing like a king. Ilthazar straightened. " So, she's awakened her dragon's power. Finally. At least one of you have done something right." Brielle looked at Ilthazar with death-like eyes. Black spirits formed around Ilthazar. He looked at them in awe. " Nice powers. Very good. But they are nothing compared to mine." Ilthazar attacked Brielle head on. She moved gently out of the way, as if not fazed. She looked at the foll who tried to attack her. " Hopeless...."[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange]OOC: Sorry I haven't been on for ages. You'll have to live with it for the next week. Exams. Sorry. Hunter slowed to a jog to let the others have a breather. Frankie was half struggling with Till on her back the last time she looked. She heard a thump of a body and spun around. Frankie had landed face first in the dirt. Till had tripped her, thinking she was an agent. Hunter turned back around and pushed through numerous corn stalks to emerge at an extremely busy highway. In the distance was the highrises of Washington. The others emerged from the field, panting slightly. Till came up behind Hunter. "So, whats the plan anyway? What did you all decide to do while I was napping?" Hunter looked at the highway. " We're going to go to Washington. Lots of people. Plenty of places to hide. Perfect place." " Except we're right near the enemy," Till replied. " I know." Hunter looked at the cars whizzing by. They didn't even notice a bunch of kids on the side of the road. She looked for a way to catch their attention. There had to be something she could do without hurting anyone. She sighed and turned to the corn field. " What are you doing?" questioned Reis. " I'm going to cause a bit of havoc...." Hunter trailed off. Fire suddenly sprung from the corn field. It swept through the field as it was a hot, dry day. Smoke plummed off the fire and covered the road. Within a few minutes, red flashing lights were racing up the highway. Hunter wanted to cause a distraction so they could catch a ride to the city. Somehow. Fire trucks pulled up and started hosing the flames. The plumes of smoke had stopped traffic. A huge bank of cars and trucks had stopped. Many of them beeped. Hunter turned to the others. " Okay guys, now's our chance. We hitch a ride on a truck. I know its not the most ingenius plan, but it will get us there."[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]OOC: Sorry i haven't replied lately. school is really getting my time. Ziarre and Rath sat down inside the main park of the city, the night breeze cooling Ziarre's fiery soul. They had rested for a few hours. Ziarre had regained her strength and was ready to return when a huge smoke stack rose into the sky. Rath smeeled the smoke. The scent of demon wavered on it. [I]Ziarre...fire...smoke....demons...[/I] " I know. I can feel the fire," Ziarre replied, feeling the burning sensation inside her heart. In a few minutes, Ziarre and Rath looked around the warehouse. Rath could hear hell hounds circle them. Small fires burned slowly outside. Ziarre felt their hot power run through her, it was a feeling she loved. [I]Hell Hounds ....[/I] Rath said. " Let them come," Ziarre said with raw power echoing through her voice. One hound launched itself at Ziarre. She dodged it. Fire spewed forth from Ziarre's green eyes and incinerated the hound. Rath circled around Ziarre, protecting her as she looked around for others that dared attack her. Suddenly, Ziarre sensed the other Hunters. " NIGHT! PHOENIX! WHERE ARE YOU! IT'S ZIARRE!" [/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]Chloe looked at Ailiyah with a very concerned look on her face. The girl was shaking so violently. But what with....fear? When Ailiyah muttered the words, " Ra..", a cat appeared at the window Ailiyah looked at. " Ra..." Chloe mumbled thoughtfully. Suddenly, a huge explosion outside rocked Angel's Cafe. All the glass in the window shattered inwards, spraying people with shards. The crowd inside th cafe ducked for cover underneath the tables, including the Sailor Scouts. When the girls rose from underneath the table, they looked outside. Burning car wreakages, pedastrians sprawled across the ground...there was devastation everywhere. Chloe looked at the others. " I think we are being called to fight." She felt her symbol grow brighter upon her forehead. The cat that was outside the window before, rubbed itself against Chloe's leg. " Well done Sailor Saturn. You've realised that you are being called for," the cat said in a distinctly male voice. Chloe looked outside at the destruction. Her anger grew. " That's it Sailor Saturn. The rage is the key to your transformation for the first time," Ra edged on. The cat turned to the others. " When your element your planet reigns over is being called for, you will too transform." A pendant suddenly appeared in Chloe's outstretched hand. It was a silver dog tag, on a chain, with the symbol of Saturn engraved in dark blue on it. Chloe clutched it as soon as she felt the cold metal touch her hand. A dark blue mist surrounded her. In a matter of a few seconds, Chloe transformed into one of the famous Sailor Scouts, Sailor Saturn. Her weapon, Saturn’s glaive, materialised and placed itself into Chloe’s right hand. “ Lets do this….” Chloe sprung out of one of the shattered windows, out into the street. Something had to of caused this massive explosion. It just wouldn’t do it by itself. She scanned the street. Something unusual caught her eye. A tall, slender woman in a black leather mini skirt and top with knee-high black leather boots was walking calmly from the scene, a satisfied grin on her face. She could sense evilness about her. Chloe ran and flipped over the woman to confront her. “ So you are a minion of Apophis, are you not?” Chloe asked in a firm voice. The woman smiled. Chloe looked at her face and stepped back a step. She had blood red eyes that could curdle blood themselves. Regaining her composure, Chloe asked again. “ Are you a minion of Apophis?” “ And you are a Sailor Scout?” “ Answer my question first!” “ I am no minion. I am the partner of Apophis, Anat.” “ I am Sailor Saturn. Why did you destroy this street?” Anat shrugged. “ I’m an ancient Egyptian war goddess. I love chaos and death.” Chloe clenched her fists. “ You monster….” OOC: Sorry I didn’t reply for ages. Its my last weeks of being a high-school student and stress and exams have gotten to me. Sorry again! [/COLOR]

Good idea. Thanks for the quick reply too.

*smiles innocently* Yeah I do. Blame that on Witch Hunter Robin. I was going to do dark but I couldn't think of any spells that were as effective as fire. So yeah. Sorry about that. The wording wasn't quite right but I was like. Ok, just put down some spells. How many are we allowed? I would like about 1 or 2 more. Buts 2's enough if that's all you want. BTW, your charater sounds really cool. ;)

Name: Jalena Age: 18 Gender: Female Personality: Like the element she can summon, Jalena is fiery, outgoing and unpredictable. You have to expect anything from her otherwise you'd get very surprised. Having fire at her control, she has a tendency to use it when angered, which isn't very often. Jalena is an experienced student and can use her powers effectively and efficiently. Appearance: Civilian: see bottom - without the wings At Tower of Fang - wears blue robe Magical Strength: Fire - 1. Fire ball - Jalena summoned balls of fire to her hands and throws it at the enemy 2. Phoenix - Jalena summons the bird of flame and attacks the enemy with it Weapon: Bow and arrow. Sometimes uses this combines with her powers. Bio: Jalena was born with the gift of fire. The Tower of Fang recognised this and took her away from her parents as soon as they could. There she grew up, mastering her pyrokinetic powers and making friends. Sometimes she would show off and almost burn down the tower. For that she was punished. From then on, Jalena started to dislike the ways the sorcers taught them. It was too rigid for her liking. She wanted to be free and wild, travelling and meeting new people. However, she didn't want to run away and leave her friends behind. Her protective nature wouldn't allow her to do that. When the opportunity for her to escape the Tower came along, she took it without hesistation. [IMG]http://www.magical-school.de/Angel/29.jpg[/IMG] -I hope thats ok. BTW I love Orphen! -

[COLOR=DarkRed]Ziarre nodded, accepting her mission. She and Rath walked out of Night's room. It was a relief to not be under the stare of a man she thought was too powerful to be one of the Hunters. Her body shook. Rath snuggled against her. She slid her hand down the big cat's back, calming herself. " I'm afraid of him. And I don't know why...." Ziarre said to herself as she and her companion walked down the hallway, towards the doors of the grand manor she resided in. ______________________________________ An hour later, Ziarre and Rath were inspecting the area around the water tower. The police did a good job of cleaning it up, but, like always, they always left bits of evidence behind. Rath sniffed around, trying to catch the scent of the demon. Ziarre bent down to check a blood splatter on the ground. She tested its freshness by tasting some of the blood. " Hmm....probably 5 to 6 hours old perhaps. Geez, did the mop-up take that long?" [I]You know how the police are in this city...always floundering around like children...[/I] Rath replied telepathically. " With the amount of murders lately, I think they just want to get the corpses out of the way of normal people... in other words they've become slack," Ziarre replied, now sniffing a different blood splatter. It had a definite pungent smell to it. " Well it seems one of the victims hurt the demon before it killed them. This blood splatter definitely smells like demon. Disgusting!" [I] Remember you're half demon...[/I] Rath replied. " Don't remind me. It's not like it was exactly my [U]choice[/U]!" Ziarre snarled back. Rath laughed. [I] Don't worry Ziarre. I don't take it personally.[/I] " You'd better not." Ziarre stood up and stretched her back. The light, fire-proof trenchcoat seemed to become heavier as the night progressed on. She yawned. " Well the demon isn't going to come to us, is it?" Ziarre asked Rath. No answer. Ziarre spun around to look for her wildcat. He'd disappeared. Rath's screaming roar echoed through the neighbourhood. Ziarre spun around to the direction it came from. Her eyes narrowed. A great beast trudged out of the nearby brush. Ziarre could see a wound in its thick, bulky arm. " So you're the one who killed all those humans?" she addressed the demon with a fiery tone. Rath brushed up against her leg, signalling his return. The demon smiled, well, what you would call a demon smile. Its hide was smoky grey and it had a head of an ogre with ram's horns on either side of it. A thin opening in it head was what you would call a mouth. In Ziarre's brilliant green eyes, a small fire had started. The demon laughed. " I am the one who disposed of those filthy humans," a growling voice eminated from the hole in its head. Rath stood poised to attack. " You know what I am..." Ziarre hissed. " A Hunter. But you can't destroy me. You are too small and weak. I am too powerful for you. The only Hunters I'm worried about is Night and the pyrokinetic," it gloated. Ziarre smiled. " We'll see about that." A small fire sprung up around the demon. His expression turned into one of horror. Ziarre felt the fire inside herself pass through her and set ablaze the grass at the demon's feat. It danced around, looking like a complete fool, trying to extinguish the flames. " Fool..." Ziarre said coldly, becoming the ruthless Hunter she had proven to be. The fire grew more intense. The heat radiating from it set alight the dry grass around her and Rath. The cougar was not fazed by the fire, as since he had grown up with Ziarre, his coat had become fire-proof. " Die you bastard!" The fire suddenly became a tornado and incinerated the demon in an instant. Ziarre dropped to her knees. All the fires dissapated. Rath strolled over to her. [I] Are you all right Ziarre?[/I] " Yeah. It gets harder everytime. Am I weak Rath?" Ziarre admitted. [I] You're not Ziarre. But something is definitely wrong. Perhaps we'll go back to the manor so you can rest.[/I] " No. I don't want to see the other Hunters, especially Night, to see how weak I've become..." [I]You're not weak Ziarre...[/I] " Then why is this happening?" [I]I ...I don't know.[/I] " Lets just go away from here and let me rest. That's all I ask." [I] All right.[/I] Rath supported Ziarre as she stood up. She, with the help of Rath, limped away from the scene. OOC: Sorry went a bit overboard with it. Sorry.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange]Hunter watched in horror at the burning wreakage of the helicopter. She didn't mean to do it - it just happened. Blood trickled down her nose. She wiped it off with her hand. The cut of her forehead was deep and still had glass sticking out of it, but, Hunter took no notice of it. She had killed. She disobeyed her father's wishes. Her whole boyd shook with grief. " I'm sorry father..." she whispered as she stood up. Walking over to the group, no one noticed the bleeding forehead of Hunter. She didn't mind. It was only a cut. She saw Alex have Till on his back. Hunter walked over to them. " Will he be okay?" Hunter asked, looking Till up and down. " I think so. Pity no one has healing powers," Alex replied. " Yeah," Alex replied. He then looked at Hunter's bleeding forehead. " Shit - how'd you manage that?" " When the car stopped, I hit the windscreen." " Maybe one of the others could look at it? Oi! Reis! When you're finished making the fog, can you come over her and help Hunter?" Alex yelled. " Sure," Reis replied. Hunter looked at Alex. " Thanks." " Hey no problem," he answered back. Hunter sat down inside the car, waiting for Reis to come over. " What are we supposed to do now?" she asked herself. " Well, we need to find a place that we can hide in first, then we'll decide later," Asim's voice came from behind her. Hunter jumped, not expecting anyone to hear her mumbling. " ASIM! You scared the crap outta me!" " Sorry, but I meant what I said. We have to get out of here!" " I agree. But where?" " Where's a place with lots of people and plenty of places to hide?" " Well, seen as though we're heading towards Washington, we may as well go there." " Good idea. But how are we going to get there?" " Hitch-hike. I don't think Alex will be able to hold Till that long. I don't think any of us could. It's our only option." " Seen as though you're the one who looks a wreck, you should try and get someone to help us." " We'll see." "EVERYONE, OVER HERE QUICK!" Hunter yelled at the top of her lungs. Everyone came obidiently. " Ok, Asim and I have come up with a plan. You can reject if you want and we'll discuss it,but we need to make a decision and soon. Most of us are tired from using our powers, and if we stay in the open like this, we'll be lambs waiting for the slaughter. We think that we should try to hitch-hike to Washigton. It's the only place with heaps of places to hide and lots of people around. It's our only option. What do you say?"[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Purple]OOC: I like the twist Heero! It's really good. Brielle's heart felt like it was torn in two. The first half was with Heero and Cyrus, the second Kai and Celebrynn. And Zeddrick. Tears rolled freely down her face. She made no effort to stop them. Scythe could feel her deep sadness. " Brielle....you did the right thing...." the black dragon growled. " I'm not so sure Scythe....I.....I hit the only one I've loved....and....and....." Brielle stuttered, feeling sadness take over her. " You must think clearly Brielle if you are to fight against Ilthazar...." Lightning crashes behind them. She knew it was Heero and Cyrus trying to get out of the cage she imprisoned them in. Guilt and sadness plagued her like a disease, eating her right to her heart. As they approached the capital, Brielle and Scythe saw a golden dragon hovering in the sky. She immediately recognised it as the Dragon Queen, and its Rider - Kai. The expression on his face told Brielle that he had matured into manhood. Their eyes were cast at the ground. Brielle looked too. Down fighting on the ground was Valo and the king of Zerveria, Ilthazar himself. The fight was a game of skill. Neither was winning from what Brielle could see. Scythe flew over to the Dragon Queen's side. Brielle looked at her brother. " Kai?" she asked tentatively. " Brielle. I'm gald to see you back," he replied, his voice ringing with authority. " How did this happen?" Brielle said, meaning the growth of the Dragon Queen. She expected it to be fast but not instanteous. " It happened when I saw Ilthazar. My anger just took over me. I had never felt that much rage before. Isis responded to it so I can avenge our parents' death Brielle," Kai replied. " You're waiting to fight Ilthazar?" " Valo is no match for Ilthazar, even though he likes to think he's superior. Unfortunately, he doesn't realise that he is being toyed with. It's his pride and arrogance that is blinding him from seeing the truth." " And you're not going to do anything about it?" Brielle scolded. " If I didn, do you think Valo would listen?" Kai replied, looking his sister in the eyes. That proved his point. " Well what are we going to do?" Brielle asked. " Wait!"[/COLOR]

Selene looked at Michael in concern. She didn't know if he would heal fast enough for them to get out safely. The Death Dealers were really on their backs this time. Scanning her eyes over Michael's wounds, a sudden thud came from up above. " Michael....come on...we have to get out of here....." Selene whispered to him. It was no good. He didn't respond. " Oh Michael......" The thud came again. Selene stood up and loaded her guns. Whoever it was, was going to get a nasty surprise when they entered. A voice echoed through the roof. " SELENE! MICHAEL! ITS REVALE!" the voice said. " Revale?" Selene whispered, not remembering the name. It suddenly struck her. " REVALE!" Suddenly a male vampire flew through threw the roof and landed in front of Selene. " Revale!" " Ah Selene...its been so long since I've seen you..." Revale answered. Selene smiled. " Yes it has been my old friend..." Revale looked behind Selene to see Michael slumped against the wall. " So that's the hybrid?" he asked. " Yes it is. Michael is his name. And...." Selen said before she was cut off. " What are you doing with him?!" Revale said, his insizors lengthening. " REVALE STOP IT! Like you, I have been thrown out of the Death Dealers because I have sided with Michael," Selene scolded, protecting her partner. Suddenly Michael stirred. " Selene?" he said, opening his eyes. The first thing he saw was Selene and another vampire standing and talking to one another. Selene had a cross look on her face. The other vampire had its fangs out fully. " SELENE!" he yelled before turning into the hybrid and attacking the other vampire. " MICHAEL DON'T!" Selene yelled at him. OOC: I hope you don't mind DemonicElf but I needed another character to help me post.

[COLOR=DarkSlateBlue][I]The end of the day finally...[/I] For Chloe, the day didn't end soon enough. She was anxious about the meeting with the others. Walking out of the school with her bag on her back, Chloe waited for Ailiyah on the stairs. A few minutes after, Ailiyah burst out of the hall. " Chloe, I'm ready..." " Good. Lets go then," Chloe said in her most friendliest voice possible. It was hard for her to be friendly to people she didn't know, considering her past. They walked down the street to the normal hang-out for their group, Angel's Cafe. Like normal, Chloe walked up to the counter. Jacob popped up from behind the counter, scarring Chloe. " Well look who it is!" he said as Chloe jumped. That second, a jar of coffee exploded. Jacob spun around. Chloe and Ailiyah looked curiously over his shoulder. " What the hell?" Jacob exclaimed. Chloe giggled. " Looks like you have more mess to clean up?" she said. Jacob looked at her, his blissful green eyes looking at her. " Yes it does.So how can I help you princess?" Jacob asked. Chloe scowled. He had always called her princess for some odd reason. Sometimes it was ok, sometimes it wasn't. And this was one of those days. " Just the normal Jake, and our normal room thanks," she replied rather coldly. Jacob clicked his tongue in disapproval. " If you're going to ask like that, you won't get it, will you?" " Jake, no games today, please?" " Alright princess. Down the back as usual." " Thank you." Chloe grabbed two hot chocolate off Jacob and walked towards their normal table. Ailiyah looked at Chloe strangely. " Do you know that you have the symbol of Saturn on your forehead?" Ailiyah said as they sat down. Chloe nodded and put down their drinks. " You have the symbol of Jupiter on yours. I have come to the conclusion that we are the only ones who can see it. And that leads to further questions about what these symbols mean?" Chloe replied, sounding rather philisophical. " Are we going to wait for the others?" " Well, we have to. I think it has effected all of us, somehow..." Chloe took a sip of her hot chocolate, waiting for the others. OOC: Sorry it took a long time to reply. Hope you haven't lost interest.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Purple]Brielle pulled away from Heero's embrace. Her mind was like a battlezone. One side saying go back to help the others with Heero, the other saying knock Heero unconscious and leaving him there so he wouldn't get more hurt. She held her head. " Oh Kai..." Heero looked at Brielle with concern on his face. " What about your brother? I thought he was a vegetable." " Far from it," Brielle replied. She looked Heero in the eyes. " Kai is the King of Celebrynn and now, the Rider of the Dragon Queen." " WHAT?" Heero said, stumbling back. Cyrus supported him. " I know. Its strange. But I knew it would happen one day. Scythe and I both knew," Brielle said. She looked up at Heero. " Heero, I want you to stay here. I know its impossible to talk you out of it but....I'm sorry...." " Sorry about what?" he asked. " This...." With lightning speed, Brielle whipped out her sword and knocked Heero unconscious with it. Heero dropped to the ground like a ton of bricks. Cyrus roared in anger. Scythe roared back. Brielle, using Scythe's magic, imprisoned both Cyrus and Heero in an energy cage. It would only be broken when Heero was fit enough to fight. " You will regret doing that Brielle," Cyrus snarled. Brielle looked at him with tears rolled down her face freely. " I know. I'm sure you'll reap your revenge Cyrus...." With that, Brielle hopped onto Scythe and flew to the capital on top speed. ____________________________________________________ Meanwhile.... Kai looked down at Valo and Ilthazar fighting in each other. Isis growled viciously. " I know Isis. Let Valo do what he's got to do. Then it will be our turn," Kai said, sounding like he had matured into adulthood.[/COLOR]

Selino opened Ziarre's door quietly, careful not to wake the pyrokintetic girl. Rath's golden eyes opened to see the old servant walking over to Ziarre's bed. The big cat growled warningly. " Don't worry Rath, I'm just here to wake her up," Selino whispered to the silvery-tan coated cougar. Selino gently shook Ziarre awake. " Dear Mistress Ziarre. You must awake. Master calls for you." Ziarre opened her brilliant green eyes as she sat up. " Selino? Night calls for the Hunters?" she asked, brushing her purple hair out of her face. The old servant nodded. " Get ready Mistress. The Hunt is about to begin soon." The old servant exited her room. Rath gracefully stood up and stretched his back. " Night calls for us Rath, the Acolytes must be active again," Ziarre whispered as she slid out of her bed. Changing into her hunting clothes (body length black leather trenchcoat, short black plaid skirt, criss-cross white shirt and black leather feminine boots), Ziarre walked out of her room with her hands in her pockets, with Rath behind her. They walked to Night's room. Ziarre knocked on the door. " Come in," Night's voice echoed from the balcony. Ziarre entered tentatively. To be honest, she was a little scared of Night but she never would admit it. " You called for me Night?" Ziarre enquired, Rath at her side.

Name: Ziarre Vengelia Age: 18 Gender: Female Appearance: See attachment Personalty: Ziarre is an enigma. People don't know what to expect of her. She is usually silent and calm. Nothing much seems to surprise her, it is like she expects that anything can and will happen. She is also a very threatening character and doesn't like being pushed around. Bio: Ziarre was an orphan at the age of 3. Her parents and her sister died in a bizarre accident that no one knows how it happened. They found Ziarre's parents and sister dead with their eye wide open with looks of horror upon their faces. The villagers knew at once what she was and banished her from the village. Ziarre remained in the woods for a year, learning wood lore and hunting. Hiroshi heard of Ziarre and tracked her down quickly. When he entered the woods she lived in, tracking her was not so easy. She had learned the woods to the utmost degree and this was her realm. Eventually Hiroshi found her and took her to the place where other 'special' children lived. Hero of: Death Weapon(s): 1) Hades Bow: A blackwood bow that is named after the Greek god of the underworld. It has a devastating effect to anyone it hits. Normally the arrows are poisioned at the tip, but when Ziarre decides to use the full capability of the bow, instant death in the result. 2) A set of daggers: Ziarre uses these when she is using stealth. Like the bow, she is deadly with aim and hits her target everytime, most times the result is death. Magic: 1)Death spell: Ziarre uses this very rarely. It requires a lot of energy and rage for this spell to be successful. It requires Ziarre to draw Hades to the full and a circle of death symbols revolve around the tip of the arrow. When the arrows is released and hits its target, everything in a 5 mile radius is completely devastated and killed. OOC: Very good Bloody Moon. I love this idea!

"We are still within city limits and are on the East highway leading out of the city. So, um....would anyone come take over? I think I could use my abilities best from the back watching for any cars and listening for helicopters." She said quietly, turning to look back at the others. "Anyone?"[/COLOR][/SIZE][/QUOTE] [COLOR=DarkOrange]Hunter looked at Frankie. She looked really tired. Feelling like they were not out of danger yet, Hunter volunteered. " I'll drive," she said, swapping places with Frankie. The car swerved a little as they swapped. " So does anyone know exactly where we are?" Hunter asked. Jon answered immediately. " We're on Route 86 heading towards Washington." " WASHIINGTON!' Hunter yelled, scaring everyone, " Great, right into the beast's belly. Well, I think we'll have to count on onlly ourselves from now on guys." Aria nodded along with the others. Suddenly the sound of helicopters echoed overhead. " Uh oh..." Jim started. Hunter jerked the wheel to the side, making the car ride off track through a corn field. Then the car started spluttering. " Oh no. What now?" Hunter moaned. The car stopped dead in the field, throwing everyone out of their seats. Hunter hit the windscreen, cutting her forehead badly. Dazed, she managed to get herself out of the car. The helicopters whizzed overhead. Frustration crept into Hunter's mind. She looked up at the helicopters. They were really starting to piss her off. Then it happened. She couldn't help it. One helicopter burst into flames and exploded in mid-air. The wreakage crashed into the field, burning slowly. Hunter stared in disbelief at the wreakage.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange]Hunter smiled at Asim. " Look, call me Hunter. It's hard to say my first name all the time. Okay?" she said to Asim, smiling at him. " Okay," Asim replied rather darkly. Hunter's eyes narrowed. [I]Something's wrong...[/I] Suddenly a cold shiver ran down her spine. Something was definitely wrong. Closing her eyes, figures of fire sat around her - the other 'gifted' students. Turning her head around, she saw a dark fire figure moving around. [I]Evil...[/I] Opening her eyes again, Hunter looked towards the principal's office. Asim looked at her. " Atalan...sorry, Hunter, what's wrong?" he asked. Hunter stood up, a flame lit in her eyes. " The government...they're here...." she whispered. Everyone stopped their conversation and looked at her. Suddenly fire appeared in the air, swirling around in a circle. " ATALANTA! Keep your powers under control!" Mr Freeman scolded her. The fire vanished but the fire in her eyes didn't disappear. " Mr Freeman, the bad guys are here!" Hunter replied darkly. Mr Freeman stood up. " The government?" " Yes." " Then go. Get out of here!" Hunter opened the window. She turned back at the others. " Come on guys. It would be better if we stuck together. Lets go..." With a flutter of her skirt, Hunter jumped out of the window.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkSlateBlue][FONT=Arial]Chloe looked at timetable. [I]Interesting...PE first up...[/I] She looked back at Mizu. " Ready to do some training?" Chloe asked her friend. Mizu nodded. Walking towards the oval, Chloe spotted a girl who wasn't familiar to her. She knew all of the people in her PE class except her. She must be a new girl. As Chloe and Mizu approached her, Chloe saw the symbol of Jupiter appear on her forehead. " Huh?" " Are you okay Chloe?" Mizu asked. Chloe turned around to Mizu and saw the symbol for Mercury on her forehead. " I'm seeing things...." Chloe replied, pointing to Mizu's forehead, " You have the symbol for Mercury on your forehad." " Uh....well...you have the symbol of Saturn on yours," Mizu said, looking up at Chloe weirdly. " This is too weird. I wonder if the others have noticed..." Chloe said, whipping out her phone. She sent a text message to Zetsumei Ronu, Azura Kimiko, Sarah Gitsy, Arora Son, Jipin Zhaoguan and Kiyoko Hideki. The text said: [I]Hey guys. It's Chloe here. Can we meet up after school? At Angel's Cafe? Come if you can. It's urgent![/I] She put her phone back into her pocket. Mizu looked at the new girl, so did Chloe. " Should we introduce ourselves?" Mizu asked. " I think so. She'll need to come with us to Angel's after school. I have a strange feeling about this," Chloe answered back. They walked up to the new girl. She had long brown hair and bright green eyes. " Hi!" Mizu said. The girl turned to them. Chloe smiled. " Hi! I'm Ailiyah. I'm new to this school," Ailiyah said. " I'm Mizu and this is Chloe," Mizu introduced themselves. " Nice to meet you. Are you in my PE class too?" Ailiyah asked. Chloe nodded. " Yes we are. I see that you are a track athlete." " Yeah, good guess," Ailiyah replied. " I'm a gymnist...well sort of...more a fighter....cross gymnastics with martial arts," Chloe explained, " So would you like to meet our friends after school? I think it'll be good for you to have some new friends." " Yeah sure," Ailiyah replied. " Great! Meet you at the steps after school then?" Mizu asked. " Sure!" Ailiyah answered. " See you there then!" Mizu said happily. Chloe walked away from the two, heading towards the indoor sports complex, readying herelf for an intense training session. " Interesting..." she muttered to herself, smiling.[/COLOR][/FONT]

Selene opened her eyes to see Michael's beautiful face. She felt his warm hand on her cheek. " Michael....." she whispered and sat up. She shook, feeling afraid for the first time in her life - afraid of her own kind. She looked over him in concern. He'd been hit - how badly, she couldn't tell. Feeling over his wounds, her concern grew. They were deep. But, he didn't seem to show any allergic reaction to the bullets. The mixing of bloods was indeed strange. Selene looked up into Michael's eyes. " Are you okay?" she asked tentatively. " I don't know. I don't feel anything..." he trailed off. Selene looked at the ground. The normal insensitive death dealer had become softer in the presence of Michael. It was starting to scare her. " Well, what shall we do Michael? I'm out of bullets," Selene said. OOC: Sorry, I had no idea where to start!

[FONT=Arial][COLOR=DarkOrchid]Sailor Scouts:The New Tokyo Time has past since the Sailor Scouts had finally defeated evil finally. Crystal Tokyo has evolved into a metropolis of advanced technology. As the city has evolved and with no evil to fight, the Sailor Scouts were not needed anymore. Their powers disappeared and they became normal girls, growing up into successful women. However, a new evil slept, dormant, below the city's earthly limits. The leader, Apophis, originates from ancient Egypt, named after the god that symbolised chaos. He has many demons from ancient times, ready to unleash them onto the unsuspecting city. Sensing this new evil, a cat called Ra, a descendent of Luna, recruited nine girls to once again become the Sailor Scouts, ready to fight this new and more powerful evil. [/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]The sandstone pyramids of ancient Egypt appeared. A snakelike god appeared about the pyramids. Raising his hands, he destroyed the pyramids with two bolts of lightning. An evil cackling erupted through the sky. The god was Apophis. Suddenly the god of the underworld, Osiris, appeared. He was the leader of the gods and, other than Ra, the only one who could control the monstrosity. " Apophis, I command you to stop!" the pharaoh god commanded. Apophis took no notice of the order. " Then so be it." With his sceptre, Osiris binded Apophis will his power and buried him under the earth on the other side of the planet. BEEP BEEP BEEP! The alarm went off next to Chloe's bed. From under the covers came a hand and hit the snooze button. The hand recoiled back beneath the warmth of the blankets. A head then appeared. Chloe yawned and rubbed her eyes. What a strange dream...... Sliding out of bed, Chloe dressed herself in her school uniform. She put up her hair before checking the she didn't leave any school books in her room. Slowly, she trudged downstairs, picked up her bag and headed out the door. Chloe walked into the garage where she saw her baby, her motorbike. She put on her helmet, kick started the engine. Wheeling back out of the garage and onto the street, Chloe closed her visier and took off. The wind rushed past her, ruffling her uniform and her skirt. Suddenly a black cat darted out onto the road. Chloe swerved and checked behind her. It was ok, ruffled but ok. Chloe turned around to see her school coming into view. Slowing down, she parked it in the garage for the students. The helmet came off and was put on the seat. Today is not my day...... Walking up the stairs to the main school building, a voice came from behind her. " Chloe, wait up!"[/COLOR][/FONT]
