[color=teal][font=times new roman][b]Chinkan's embrace tightened. She did not want to lose Azuran, Chinkan began to sob softly. "Chinkan, why are you crying?"Azuran held her away from him and held her face with his left hand. "Why does he torment me?"her eyes pleaded. "Who? Ryu?"Azuran's voice was stern. "Yes, he told me..that you were a coward....And I didn't do anything! I just stood there like an idiot while he insulted you!"Chinkan turned away in shame. Azuran stared after Chinkan, but he was not upset with her. He swam up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist, he set his chin on Chinkan's shoulders. "Do not fret with his words. He only said those words because he knew it would torment you. I do not care what he said, I still love you,"Azuran kissed Chinkan on the neck. "It still upsets me. He said he wanted me to join him in this revolution because I was the strongest out of us, me, you, and Miazmodon. But I have trouble believing that, for I am just a mere half vampire/half demon. What special powers do I have? You are the son of Dracula, Miazmodon has something about him. I can't quite place it, but I sense his blood is very intense and powerful. I have nothing special within me," Chinkan pulled her eyes away. Azuran's eyes flashed with anger and he jerked Chinkan a little. She looked at him, startled and frightened by the look in his eyes. "You do have something special inside of you. I don't know how to describe it, but that something has changed my life. And if you don't see that, then you are selfish,"Azuran let go of Chinkan and started for the ladder. Chinkan's tears could no longer be sustained. She held herself in hurt from Azuran's anguished voice and face. "Azuran, please,"Chinkan made her way towards him. Azuran froze at her painful voice. He let go of the ladder and slid back into the water. He slowly turned around to look at Chinkan. "I am so sorry. I do realize that you have changed, that is why I was so hurt by what Ryu said. I do not wish to be stronger than anyone, especially you. I love you so much, Azuran and I am sorry I was being selfish,"Chinkan started to sink in the water. Azuran swam up to her and held her in his secure arms. He stroked her hair and layed his cheek on the top of her head. "I love you, Azuran. With everything that I am, I love you,"Chinkan wrapped her arms around his neck.[/color][/font][/b]

[color=teal][font=times new roman][b]Anya and Hak were standing up discussing what was to happen when Garai started to play his music. Anya looked over to see Zsuzsanna scoot over one stool and smiled. Anya was happy that this young girl was starting to feel welcome. The soft melody of Garai's flute floated throughout the silent bar, Anya nearly fell asleep standing up. Seichiro burst through the bar doorway, grinning ear to ear. Anya looked at him and smiled, she grabbed his hand. "Dance with me,"she gave him the puppy eyes,"Please.." "I don't know how to dance,"Seichiro tried to wrench his hand back. "Aww, c'mon. I will teach you, it's really simple,"Anya kept pleading with her droopy eyes and pouting lip. ".....Oh, alright,"Seichiro set his bag on the floor and stood infront of Anya. [i]Works everytime..[/i]Anya thought,"Okay, first thing, you put this arm around my waist," she took his left arm and wrapped it around her hips. "Next, your right hand takes my left hand..good, now just sway to the melody. Follow my lead," Anya instructed as they waltzed around the bar. Seichiro tried to pull away from embarassment, but Anya persisted. They both laughed hystaricallly as they ran into chairs and stepping on Sabian's tail. "You two had better stop before you kill that poor animal,"Hak chuckled at Anya and Seichiro, who are now goofing around. Garai kept playing, except now his music was flittery and playful. Demi watched and giggled at Anya and Seichiro. Zsuzsanna laughed and held onto Miles. Sabian chased the couple around, jumping in the air trying to dance. "Owww! That was my toe! Hahahahaha.....ooooppss!"Anya tripped over Seichiro's bag and fell. Seichiro stumbled and lost his balance, falling right ontop of Anya. Everyone started to laugh. Anya and Seichiro blushed.[/color][/font][/b]

[color=teal][font=times new roman][b]Chinkan watched Ryu disappear. She was infuriated from his insults. Carmize sobbed quietly on the forest floor. Leave were tangled in her hair. "Carmize.."Chinkan knelt down. "Get away from me!! Why did it have to be you!!?"with that Carimize stood up to run. But she was stopped by Miazmodon lifting her from the ground by her night gown. She was kicking and flailing. Chinkan stood up, her long chocolate hair started to flicker from brown to orange. Her eyes began to glow with from anger. Miazmodon took a step back. "Chinkan, calm down. You will fight him soon enough...oooff.."Miazmodon was cut off by Carmize's foot to his stomach. "Why you little twit,"his voice was of shock, not anger. He grabbed the side of her neck and she fell limp. He slung her over his shoulder. "Take her back to the hotel, Miazmodon. I wish to be alone for a little while,"Chinkan clutched her abdomen and sat against a tree. Miazmodon stared for a few seconds then nodded. He disappeared into the forest. [i]The Ryu I fought is now dead...Now this new form, the Luna Ryu, wants me to join him in his "revolution"...What's so special about me? I'm just as good of a fighter as Azuran..How dare him to say that about Azuran!! Azuran's the one who has protected me...What is so important about me?[/i] Chinkan's fangs stirred and she tried to control her demon blood. She started to sob and brought her knees to her chest. She was confused and frustrated.[/color][/font][/b]

[color=teal][font=times new roman][b]*Claps hands* Beautiful, yet as always. I really enjoyed that one. To me it seemed as if the vampire was lonely and wanted a companion and got one. I don't know how you intended it to be, but I thought it was great... _____________________________________________ [center][i]~Do not fear~[/b] Fear is a strong being, He can come to us anytime He wants.

[color=teal][font=times new roman][b]Anya smiled up at Seichiro. She was happy to hear that he would actually try. She leaned back and ran her hand up the side of his neck. "I will agree with you condition. Thank you, Seichiro. Just make sure you try your best. We are all to meet at the Coral Bar in a few more hours. Garai and Zsuzsanna are already waiting. I shall let you gather your things and say your goodbyes if you want to do so, and I wil be waiting in the bar,"Anya gently slapped his face. "Alright, I will be there in an hour,"Seichiro playfully pushes Anya out the door. Anya walked back to the bar and sat down next to Garai. Sabian looked up and whimpered. Anya played with him for a little while. Garai looked at her for some answers. "So..?" "So what?" "Why do you look so happy?" Garai crossed his arms. "Because I am,"Anya layed her head on her arms and closed her eyes.[/color][/font][/b]

[color=teal][font=times new roman][b]In my opinion, trick or treating has lost its charm. Sure it was fun when I was younger..alot younger..But now, being 18, I find it quite childish. I do not think of it as "immature", it's supposed to be for children. This is their holiday, but I will say it's immature for an older child/teen to make a joke out of the holiday. Picking on little kids and taking things too far. Things like egging vehicles and houses, toilet papering houses and trees, you know immature activities as such. That's when it becomes "immature". I love the holiday and I support those who go trick or treating for the actual purpose. ~anima[/color][/font][/b]

[color=teal][font=times new roman][b]Hello all, I am new to the show .hack//sign. I have been watching it on Cartoon Network for the last three Saturdays and am completely lost. Is anyone else watching it on Saturday nights as well? If so, is the show closing towards the end or is it just begining? Anyway, I think it's a great show. And so far I love Tsukasa. I wanted to cry for him in tonight's episode. That poor kid, he was so upset over that baby grunter..I am also liking the green haired guy. Subaru is awesome too, she's so intelligent and calm. I took the "What .hack//sign character are you?" on Guru, and I came out to be Mimiru..wouldn't you know? But let me get back on topic, I loved the show and I want to know more about it. Specifically where it is at in the episodes as of now. ~anima[/color][/font][/b]

[color=teal][font=times new roman][b]Anya turned from Garai's piercing gaze. She felt something within her. She looked down at Sabian. His smile told her to do what was inside. She jumped off her bar stool, startling Garai. "Where are you going?"he called after her. "I will be back! Watch my stuff and Sabian!"Anya ran out of the bar and down the street. [i] I just hope it's not too late..[/i]She came upon the shooting gallery. It was locked, but a light was shinning from the back. Anya ran behind the gallery and tried the back door's handle, it too was locked. She knocked softly and peere through the window. She saw no movement. Anya sighed and leaned back against the door, sliding down to sit on a cement step. [i]I was too late..[/i]Just as she started to stand up, the door swung open and Anya fell backwards. She looked up to see Seichiro's baffled face. "Hi,"Anya smiled nervously. "What are you still doing here? And why are you knocking on my door at 1 in the morning?"Seichiro helped Anya to her feet. She stared at him with a look in her eyes that he had never seen. It was as if she were trying to tell him something. "I, uh.."Anya was playing with a string from her pants. "What is it?' You never act like this,"Seichiro knew Anya more than anyone she had come to know. He took her shaking hands into his. Anya looked up and blushed. "Come with us...Please, I will teach you how to shoot. I will teach you how to fight, please. I promise, I will help you, please"Anya threw herself into his arms. Seichiro stood shocked. [i]Why would she act like this? This is very odd...[/i][/color][/font][/b]

[color=teal][font=times new roman][b][size=2]Chinkan came out from the bathroom in a towel around her body. Azuran was sitting on the bed, tending Hakira's wounds. "Let him take me!!"Carmize yelled then ran out the door. Chinkan stared in bewilderment. She ran out of the room after Carmize. "Carmize! Wait!! What are you doing!!?"Chinkan desperately tried to keep the towel from falling off. "Chinkan, what do you think you are doing? Get back in here and get some clothes on!"Azuran called out from the room. Chinan walked back into the room, huffing in frustration. She grabbed a pair of drawstring sweatpants and a white tank top. She hurridly threw on the clothes, realizing she didn't put on a bra, but she didn't care, she just wanted to catch Carmize. She threw on a pair of sneakers and ran out the door. She saw Miazmodon by the swimming pool. He saw her running and decided to go with Chinkan. "What happened?"he asked trying to keep up with Chinkan's impressive speed. "I do not know. I just got out of the shower and Carmize ran,"Chinkan scanned the area.[/color][/font][/b][/size]

[color=indigo][font=times new roman][b]Anya and Sabian walk down the empty streets, it was dark. What a whirlwind of a day, it seemed like she was just in the shooting gallery with Seichiro. "Seichiro...I will miss you,"Anya looked up to the stars. They were glowing brightly. They gazed down and winked at Anya. She smiled, all of her ancestors dominated each star. They gave her the power to control her deck. The Deck of Stars, Anya's most prized and powerful weapon. Anya reaches into her pocket and clutches the cards. Sabian gave a quiet murmer, almost a cooing sound. Anya stopped and knelt down. "What is it Sabian?"she ruffled his fur and kissed him on the head. Anya stood up with her duffle bag on her back and her staff in one hand. The blood red orb, that was held by the cresant moon medalian, glittered in the moonlight. Anya walks into the bar. She looks around to see a few "all nighter" drunks, they were the only noise that broke the thick silence of the city. Anya gazed to find Zsuzsanna sleeping at the counter. She saw Garai sitting a couple of stools away, he had his arms folded across his chest, a black kitten was curled up on his folded arms. Anya chuckled as such a sweet sight. Garai looked up to smile at Anya,"Hey, welcome back." "Good morning to you too. Is this a friend of yours?"Anya nodded to the kitten. "Nah, it's Zsuzsanna's. I am just watching the fluff ball while she get's some rest. Care to join me in a drink? My treat,"Garai put the small kitten on his bag. "Sure,"Anya sat down. Sabian at her feet, whines a bit. "Wow, he's beautiful,"Garai commented. "He will not bite. He's quite friendly,"Anya ordered her drink and a bowl of water for Sabian,"His name is Sabian." Garai pet the silver and white wolf, who was licking Garai's palm. Garai smiled and ordered his drink. "It's kind of overwhelming is it not? To think, we are going to be on the same ship as Hakaru? I wonder where this 'treasure' is..."Garai took a swig of his drink. "I know, I was jobless. Now I am a treasure hunter. This should prove interesting. Though, I wish Seichiro would come along. I hate leaving him here by himself. I know he can take care of himself, but I am always near him. It will be strange to be so far away,"Anya drank the rest of her coffee. Garai looked curiously at Anya and continued to drink.[/color][/font][/b]

[color=teal][font=times new roman][b]Kaiye lay trembling on the ground. She was so tired, so tired of being alone. So tired of the confusion. She sat up quickly, remembering the festival. "Oh man, I am so late!"Kaiye tried to stand up but fell to her knees again. "The mirror must have drained your energy. Touching it takes away the pain, that is why it's called the Mirror of Lost Pain. Once the mirror takes your pain, it traps it inside. Having nowhere to go, the pain is lost within the mirror,"a soft, dark voice came from within the shadows. Kaiye spun around.[/color][/font][/b] ******** sorry, I can't think of what to say..

[color=teal][font=times new roman][b]Tanya's skeptical eyes scanned the perimeter. She saw nothing, except for Jake leaving. "Hey, get back here!"Manakari called. "Let him go. He can not afford to wait. His gundam's system will take over, then it's goodbye to everything in its path,"Tanya sternly informed. She punched several codes into her computer. The screen infront of her turned blue. "Hello Lt. Tanya Remmings,"neon green letters flickered. "Hello Grim. Upload Gundam System: Zero,"Tanya spoke and continued to punch in codes. "Uploading.....23%...47%....75%....89%......Upload Gundam System: Zero is complete." "Good, now I should be able to find Grim's location,"Tanya smiled. "Tanya, what are you doing?"Karen's face appeared in the corner of the screen. "Finding our gundams,"Tanya smiled as she looked at the second screen to her right. This screen was for radar and the GPS(global positioning system). A yellow dot started to flicker against the black map. It was Grim.[/color][/font][/b]

[color=teal][font=times new roman][b]"Matt!"Charlotte looked up to make sure no one had heard her rather loud whisper. Matt did not move. Charlotte stood up and bent over to try and pick the limp and bloody body off of the floor. She managed to wrap Matt's arm around her shoulder and began to drag him across the stage. [i]Beebeep, beebeep..[/i] "Charlotte? Charlotte, where are you?" Zeig's voice came from her jacket's pocket. Charlotte and Matt were finally off of the stage, she tenderly sat Matt down on the ground and propped him against the wall. "I am trying to get Matt out of here,"Charlotte flipped open her screen. "Where do you plan to take him, Charlotte?"Zeig sounded furious,"If you take him to the infermary, they will punish you for helping him! You can not take him to your quarters because there is no way that you will make it there without being caught. You know this, Charlotte,"his voice was now full of concern. "I can not leave him here!"Charlotte's eyes started to blur with tears. "......Listen, place him in a safe spot for now. Tonight, I will help you carry him into my quarters. Matt can stay with me until we can figure out what to do with this whole situation,"Zeig's calm face comforted Charlotte. "But, won't they be looking for him? Damnit, now what? I know they are going to be looking for him and I just signed my punishment papers,"Charlotte leaned against the wall and slid down to sit. ''Charlotte, listen to me. Just do as I say and leave Matt in the auditorium, just for a couple of hours. Meet me in the mech hanger, we will discuss what to do,"the screen went black. Charlotte squeezed the small computer and looked over at Matt. His face was twisted with pain. Charlotte propped him against her and lifted him up. She made her way behind the thick tapistries into a small dressing room. Charlotte placed Matt onto the couch. "Matt, I will come back for you in a while. Please, stay alive,"Charlotte felt a hot tear slide off of her cheek and onto Matt's face. She planted a kiss on his cold cheek and left to meet Zeig in the mech hangers.[/color][/font][/b]

[color=indigo][font=times new roman][b]Anya chose a Colt Magnum*hehehe*. It was platinum and black. She takes the gun and thigh holster and attatches it to her belt. "Don't worry, I will send you a postcard now and then,"Anya looked up at Seichiro. "No, don't.*Anya looks hurt*It will be best for you to move forward,"Seichiro placed a hand on her shoulder. "Right, take care of yourself kid,"Anya leaned over and embraced Seichiro. "I would say the same, but I know you can take care of yourself. So I will say this, when you come back, you'd better come back to see me,"Seichiro hugged her tighter. "Of course I will, kid. Say goodbye to your pops for me. Bye Seichiro, I shall return,"with that Anya gave him a kiss on the cheek and left. She walked down the street, holding onto the silver tin that Seichiro had given her. It started to rain again, softly. The pitter patter on tin roofs, the sweet smell of water lifted Anya's spirits. She didn't want to leave Seichiro, she wished he'd come along. Anya walks up to the door to her small house and enters. The one bedroom house was quiet and empty. She walked into her kitchen and took out a bottle of water from the fridge. Anya walked into her bedroom..well, it wasn't much. A matress lay on the floor, the closet doors hung from their hinges, her dresser mirror was broken in several different places. She smiled, she liked her house. Simple, not too cluttered. She threw all of her weapons on the couch and walked back into her room. She grabbed a duffle bag and began to pack her things. A noise came from the bathroom, Anya didn't fear, she knew what was in the bathroom. "Sabian, I have a surprise for you,"Anya walked to the door and opened it. A wolf tackles Anya. He was fluffy and snow white with a silver breast. His eyes were bright green and he is very hyper. Anya picked this wolf up when she was walking home one night from a race. He was licking her face and neck. "Okay, I will tell you. We are going on a treasure hunt with Hakaru, yes we are. You had better be a good boy, Sabian,"Anya knelt down and fluffed his thick, silvery breast. Anya finished packing her clothes. She walks into the living room, Sabian at her heals, and puts her belt and holster back on. She takes her whip and snaps it on, she ties her ninjitsu and tanto, her Chinese stars are in a pouch attatched to her belt, she reaches over and grabs her crossbow which is slung over her shoulder. "Let's go Sabian,"Anya walks towards the door and takes her staff. Anya walks towards the bar, Sabian faithfully at her side, tongue hanging out of his head.[/color][/font][/b]

[color=teal][font=times new roman][b]Hmm, it looked more like a short story to me. But all around, good topics to discuss. Loneliness and confusion, pain and hope, these always make a good poem because they contridict one another and you get so many ideas to write. [/color][/font][/b]

[color=indigo][font=times new roman][b]"Yes, be sure to pack personal items and clothes. We'll be on the ship for many days, possibly weeks. Of course we'll stop here and there, but bring your personals,"Hakaru explained. "So, shall we just go and take care of personal business tonight and meet here in the morning?"Garai fiddled with his pouch. "Yeah, we'll all reconvine here at eight am. I hope you all show up,"Hakaru's voice was of death. "Right, well I don't have anything better to do, so I will be here,"Anya walked towards the door and gave a wave over her shoulder,"See you all in the morning." Anya walked out onto the puddled streets, the rain had cleared, except for those occasional drops. People screaming in the market places, children splashing eachother, dogs chasing the children. The sun dared to peek itself through the grey clouds, trying to show people that he was soon to set. "Anya Himura! We've been looking for you,"a chuckle appeared from the shadows of an ally. "What is your quarrel?"Anya sensed this man was sore with her. "You owe me money, my little pretty,"the beast of a man presented himself infront of her. He was taller than her(which isn't very hard seeing she's 5'3), it looked as if he hadn't shaved in a week, the same with a bath. The man reaked of booze and sweat. "I owe no one anything. You must be mistaken,"Anya continued to walk. "You owe me from last month when you 'borrowed' a gun, and then you busted it to hell. For that you owe me big time! If I don't get that money now, you're going to Hell with that gun!!" the man pulled out a small handgun. Anya stopped dead in her tracks and slowly turned around. She glared at this nasty human. "If you don't holster your weapon and leave me be, I will be forced to impose. And trust me, it will not be pretty,"Anya tapped her whip's handle. Anya loves her whip. It's atleast 10 feet long, tightly bounded leather, and is tipped with a small, razor sharp diamond. She's been known for this whip. One time she lashed a man so that he had to have his leg amputated. "Ha! You don't scare me with that piece of leather!" Anya smiled and before anyone could blink, a loud pop rang out into the air. The man fell to his knees, holding his now nub of an arm. His right hand was on the ground and he looked up with fright at Anya. He got up and ran. "Hmm,"Anya giggled and wrapped up her whip and strapped it back onto her belt. She continued to walk and decided to go back in to say goodbye to Seichiro. She walked in, the little bell rang. She looked at what was the desk and her ears twitched. "Seichiro?" "Yeah, I am here. Hey Anya, back again?"Seichiro came from around cleaning up the targets Hakaru obliterated. "I..*still looking at the desinigrated desk*..came to say goodbye. What happened?"she couldn't resist anymore and pointed towards the pile of splinters. "Oh, that. Dad got a new toy. Goodbye? What's up?" "I am to go with Hakaru on his treasure hunt,"Anya explained the events in the bar. Seichiro huffed a bit. "Why? I thought your people didn't believe in such brothel." "Well...can I tell you a secret?" "Yeah, sure." "I need the money, I am infact in debt. My car didn't do to well in my last race, and now I owe alot of money. That's why I took the job. I just hope for Hakaru's sake he isn't messing around with me,"Anya was deathly serious. "Oh, okay. Yeah, I hope for his sake too. I've seen you angry before,"Seichiro's face smirked. Anya giggled,"Hey, I need a gun. What can you do to help?"[/color][/font][/b]

[color=indigo][font=times new roman][b]"Hmm,"Anya stood up and stretched. "Are you going to do it?"Demi asked. Hak is looking at Anya, Garai and Zsuzsanna as well. Anya's tail twitched from all of the attention. She didn't answer, she looked up at the ceiling. "What's the profit?"Demi turned her attention back to Hak when Anya didn't answer. "It all depends on how many merc's I get,"Hak leaned back against the bar. "Alright, I will join you Hakaru Tskokanaru. You just remember who I am. Do not attempt to underestimate my abilities. If you pull any funny stunts, I will personally make sure that you regret asking me to join,"Anya put her hands on his knees and leaned in to whisper to him. He stares at her for a few seconds and smiled. "Done,"Hakaru and Anya shook hands. "Treasure? Did I hear you correctly?" Demi asked quietly, almost shyly. "Yes, what's it to you?"Hakaru was a little annoyed. "My name is Demetria Genesee, or Demi. I'm a pilot mostly, but I have extensive training in magic, and I'm a fair shot. I'll do just about anything for the right price, and treasure sounds absolutely perfect. So, what do you think?" her face was gleeful.[/color][/font][/b]
