Akieen Cloud

[COLOR="Navy"][FONT="Comic Sans MS"]Calil felt the blood root in her pouch pulse and the happy feeling she had felt a moment ago for her friends faded as she heard the voice in her head once again. 'Save him...he will die...please, save him...' She clutched her head and fell onto her knees gritting her teeth as images flashed through her mind. Walking around the outside of the castle with a young man, feeling her heart race and seeing the blush flood his cheeks. Seeing him turn and walk away, seeing the sadness in his eyes as he told her goodbye. She opened her eyes to see Dawner kneeling by her looking worried. "Cal, you okay? You kinda just fell over like something was hurting you." She shook her head not giving him an answer, her eyes no longer held the light they had a few moments ago, her movements weren't as fluid or as relaxed and her aura seemed to have darkened. She turned slowly to Penbrooke as he ran up to them and pushed past the others til she was facing him and pulled her arm back slamming her fist into his face, the sickening crack of his nose breaking filled the air as he stumbled back, blood pouring from under his hands as he held them to his abused nose. "Wha tu fuhk?!" Her answer was deadpan, monotone and empty as she squared her shoulders and looked down on him, pulling out a cigarette and lighting it with the top of her thumb. "If you ever mess with my mind again, I'll kill you my self." With out another word she turned and walked in the direction the voice in her head was telling her to. She turned and pinned the rest of the group with a look telling them not to follow her as she took a drag off her cigarette and blowing the stream of white smoke out and turning walking away from them. Karyn looked up at Draco, her eyes brimming with tears. "Is she okay? What's wrong with Calil?" Dawner shook his head and turned on Penbrooke. "Everything came back to her it seems. From now on I think it's safe to say you should keep your distance from out dear Calil." Penbrooke stood up and clenched his fists. "Like hell I will! I was there for her when you guys were off giving her the cold shoulder when she needed you the most and not giving a damn!" Again a resounding crack filled the silence, this time from Karyn's fist. "Don't you dare say we don't care! We all love Calil with everything we have! She's family and we would have done all we could for her if she would have let us!" Penbrook stared up at them, his frown getting deeper the more he looked over them. "Say what you want. But I was there in middle of the night while she screamed out for Dean. I was there holding her hair back as she would vomit up whatever bottles she drank at the bar, patching her up day in and day out as the poison got worse. Who is say Dean even still cares for her?! All these years and not even a word from the bastard? If he really cared about her he would have at least sent her something!" Dunan put a hand on Dawner's shoulder as he made a move to hit the man again. When Dunan spoke his words left no room for further discussion on the topic. "He loves her, no one here questions that. We all saw it for ourselves how much it hurt him to walk away from all of us, mostly her. We trust him with our lives, no he may not have sent us any word but we know that he has our best interest in mind. We've never questioned it before and we are not about to start now." He turned and headed for the Inn that they were told to go to. Penbrooke spared a glance back towards the way Calil had gone and jumped slightly as Draco's voice growled at him. "Don't even think about it." Penbrooke followed the others, still holding his bloody nose. Calil walked for what she guessed was mere minutes though it felt like hours. She was on her third cigarette and was enjoying the numbness she was feeling in her fingers as she approached a small bramble of plants. Blinking lazily she stared down at the bloodied man at her feet and knelt down beside him. He was breathing but barely. Sighing she reached down and put her hands under his arms hoisting him off the hot sand and onto her back she walked back slowly through the heat waves as the rolled off the dunes til she found a small piece of what she supposed was building at one time, but the sand and worn it down to near nothing but a small source of shade from the murderous sun. Setting him down she felt his body for the wound and noted them in her mind as she pulled out her water skin and put it to the mans lips tilting his head back urging him to drink which he did slowly. She heaved another bored sigh til he cracked open his eyes and looked up at her slowly, not really focusing on her. She blinked and leaned forward to get a closer look at his face. She was curious and hadn't felt this much real emotion in years. She was intrigued and it felt odd. She opened her mouth and spoke, her voice sounding unused and strange to her own ears. "Drink" He turned his head and grunted as she turned it back to face her, his skin felt heated in her hand and she blinked as feeling flooded her hand making her jerk her hand back and his head hit the packed sand. He grunted in response to the abuse yanking her attention back to the task at hand. Taking the back of his head in her hand again she tilted his head forward and putting the lip of her water skin to his lips yet again and helped him drink. When his lips were no longer cracked and bleeding from lack of hydration she corked the top and lay his head down on the sand and looked him over. "You lost?" His answer was gruff and tired as he took the cigarette from between her fingers and took a weak drag from it. "None of your damn business." She felt a small smile tug at the corner of her mouth and squashed it quickly. Why? Why was she feeling things all of a sudden, the heat from his skin, the smile wanting to show itself...she was feeling...alive? She shook her head to clear her thoughts and used some of her water to clean his deeper wounds before leaning on the sand damaged wall and waiting as she lit up yet another cigarette. She leaned her head back as she rested her arm on her bent knee, he voiced a question between his labored breathing. "What...are you...waiting on?" "To hot to move." The answer was short and simple. Leaving it at that she closed her eyes as she finished off her smoke and let a light sleep envelop her as she waited for it to cool down enough for her to move herself and the half dead man to the others to have Dawner look at him. She wasn't sure why she was helping a complete stranger but something was telling her she had to. Her dreams drifting back to Dean. [/FONT][/COLOR] *Wipes the sweat from my forehead* Whew, got that done. Does this mean we're still in business with this? I really hope so. XP

[COLOR="Navy"][FONT="Comic Sans MS"]Ari sighed as she wiped her hands clean of the canine blood that was covering them satisfied with the job she had done stitching up the dog on her table who was currently sleeping soundly with a IV drip of morphine his leg. She looked back at the man who was wringing his hands worriedly. "He's going to be fine Murph. Valentine is a tough old girl. She'll pull through." The officer sighed and hunched his shoulders as the worry washed away from him. "That's good. How long will she be under?" "For a while, I'll have to put another drip in her so she doesn't feel any pain." As she said this she walked over to her cabinet and forze, frowning. "What in blue blazes..." "Everything alright Ari?" "No, I'm missing a bottle of morphine. That's odd cause I know I had more than just these five bottles. And no one goes in here but me..." She shook her head and pulled out a bottle and injected it into the IV drip that was connected to the dogs leg. It baffled her but she let it slid for the time being and concentrated on her job til she could go out later tonight and do some digging through the city.[/FONT][/COLOR] Sorry its so short, lots of errands to run today and not alot of time.

[COLOR="Navy"][FONT="Comic Sans MS"]A scream echoed through the alley where Knives had been patrolling. She heaved a sigh and shook her head. She jumped the short distance from the roof she was on to the one next to it and crouched down looking over the ledge of the roof. What she saw made her vision go red. An older man stood holding the arm of a young woman. "I swear I did the best I could! I sold as much as I was able to!" "And by the way you smell you smoked the rest of it you stupid druggie bitch!" He slapped her and than gave a wicked smile as he pulled out a syringe filled with a clear liquid. "You want drugs so bad? I'll give you enough to last you a life time!" He approached her with the syringe and Knives had a feeling she knew what he was up to and sighed. It was always the women getting hurt or rapped and needed saving. Oh well. Grabbing onto the water pipe on the side of the building she slid down til she was only about eight feet from the street below and let go landing nimbly on her feet. The drug dealer spun around, the girl's arm in one hand the syringe in the other. His face contorted into a frown as he looked at her. "Who the hell are you?" She didn't answer only leaped forward arching her foot in a wide axe kick to the man's head, he crumpled to the ground as Knives walked over to check on the girl, she was skinny, she was sickly, she was a druggie and Knives felt a small pang of hurt as her brother flashed through her mind but a low moan from the man brought her back to her job at hand and she turned her head to look over her shoulder as the man stood and pulled as pistol from the waist of his pants. Reaching to her thigh she gripped one of her throwing knives tightly and spun throwing it hitting the man in the throat, as he fell his muscles tightened down on the trigger and a bullet ripped through her shoulder, she grit her teeth and turned around again looking at the girl. She sighed, first thing was first. She began to spread ammonia on the spots where her blood had fallen and retrieved her knife. Picking the girl up she placed her on the corner of the street in the lamp light where some one was sure to find her. Climbing the fire escape ladder she entered her apartment through the window and stripped out of her outfit looking at the bullet wound in her shoulder. It wasn't horrible but it would need stitches. Gathering the things she would need she began to work on her shoulder and by the time she was done it was well after 6:00 am. She heaved a sigh and stepping into the shower not even bothering to try and get any sleep, she had work in an hour. Ari gave a wide grin as a large German Shepard bounded up to her wagging it's tail enthusiastically. She rubbed the sides of it's head and looked up as it's owner walked in behind it. "Juels, you know better." Ari waved as Officer Wood entered the vet office after his dog. "It's fine Wood, Juels just knows me is all. He looks really good, you been giving him that dog food I was suggesting?" "Yeah, he loves it, so has anyone told you about last night?" "No, what's going on?" "Seems Knives hit another drug dealer, it was Antonio Balardie." "The Italian guy? Weren't you all after him for like six months?" "Yeah and some wanna be bounty hunter gets him instead. I hope someone takes the guys head off." "What makes you think it's a guy?" "Yeah like a woman would be able to take a bullet and not be whining about it." She knew what he was talking about and bit the inside of her cheek to keep her frown away. "Bullet?" "Yeah he was shot, but we can't get a DNA match cause there was ammonia all over the sight. What a waste." He shook his head as Ari's hands worked through the dogs fur out of instinct looking for anything that might be wrong with the dog. Finding nothing she gave him a meaty treat and just stroked his fur gently listening to the officer. "I can't wait til someone puts a bullet between this guys eyes. He's a menace to the streets and thinks that we don't d o our job well enough." "Well think about it Wood, no matter how many time these mob bosses hit a street you guys always seem to look the other way." "They're powerful. They could get the precinct closed down in a heartbeat if they wanted to." She shrugged and gave him a huge smile that he returned. "Well either way Juels is all set, he's healthy and is in great shape. If you hear anything else let me know please. Remember, I'm the one who lives in the not so great part of town." "Well just keep an eye out, I've heard rumors that the guys boss is supposed to be coming in to find this Knives person and kill him." She nodded. "I'll stay off the streets." He gave a quick nod and moved out of the room, his dog following close behind him. She made a mental note of the information he had given her and continued working.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="Navy"][FONT="Comic Sans MS"]Name: Ari Inuzuka Vigilante Name: Knives Age: 22 Gender: Female Costume Appearance: Ari doesn't really wear a costume per say, she wears a pair of sunglasses that are large enough to cover most of her face, her hair framing her face does the rest. She wears a pair of short, tight black jean shorts with a black tank top and black combat boots. Her thighs are decorated with large straps that hold a good supply of throwing knives in each, she also has a boot dagger strapped to her right boot and two large combat knives strapped to the small of her back she has earned her name as Knives. She is also extremely flexible and agile thanks to the unique fighting style she was taught. Appearance: Tall and lean she weighs in at 175, she is petite looking but is anything but, muscular for a woman she is in top physical shape, jet black hair that falls in layers down past her hips and pale skin she has a simple beauty about her. Her eyes are bright Violet Blue she is clumsy and a bit awkward with a height of 5'7. Weapon: A large collection of throwing knives and blades. Day Job: Police Vet Personality: Ari is very friendly and will be the first to try and get you to smile, she loves having fun and will often stop the officers the bring their dogs to her and joke with them asking about their family's and everyday lives. One of the most kind hearted people you will ever meet she refuses to let anyone who needs help pass her by and will often give a $50 bill to a homeless person just cause she can. Living alone gives her the opportunity to go out and party which she does alot of the time on weekends,she is loud and fun loving looking at her and than reading about Knives you would never put the two together in the same room, ever. Unlike Ari Knives seems to be blood thirsty, she give no mercy and never leaves anyone alive. Serious to a fault she is graceful and could easily jump from a low balcony and land on her feet no problem. She is quiet and sneaks up on her victims more than ever, killing them and leaving without them ever knowing she was there to begin with. Not the bouncy kind of person if someone were to run into her on the streets and try to make small talk it would most likely end in her knocking them out for annoying her. Bio: Ari and her brother had always been close,they had told each other everything and loved one another greatly and stayed close all through childhood and into adults. A few years after they moved to Shell City her brother began acting out of sorts. He began coming home late looking thin and sick, and began getting agitated over little things that weren't really that big of a deal. After months and months of him acting like this, getting thinner, sicker, and more violent he finally collapsed on the door step to their apartment. Rushing him to the hospital they confirmed that he had been ODing on cocaine and other drugs for a while. Staying by his side she had to watch as the drugs slowly ate him from the inside out killing the person that was no longer her loving brother thanks to the addictive poisons that were being sold on the streets. After his death a few days later she returned to work and began to look through old files from the police station seeing more drug busts than anything, and seeing that most of the drug dealers targets were young kids she felt her anger rise til one day she finally snapped. Grabbing her's and her brother's knife collection she hid them under a heavy down jacket and found the closest drug dealer she could and killed him within moments of finding him. Blaming all the drug dealers for her brother's death she began to kill them with out mercy. She has become a favored vigilante among the mothers of the city who are worried about their teens getting involved with drugs. She has yet to make most wanted but is slowly reaching that point as she has began to target some of the drug dealers belonging to the crime bosses of Shell City. Thanks to her fighting styles of Cappioella and Savate, and her skill with knives she has been dubbed by the public as the Bladed Whirlwind.[/FONT][/COLOR] Hope this is good enough, if anything needs changed lemme know!

No Chibi you are not the only one who finds enjoyment in that. I LOVE big sweaters and hoodies and things. They're so comfy! And I agree on the cold with no snow thing as well. ITS FREEZING BUT THERE'S NO SNOW! WTF? I hate it. I wish I still lived in NC where it only gets like 4o during the winter.

I'd love to get this place back up and running the way it used to. I know I'm on here once in a while but my absance is more due to life such as kids and home and what not but I usually check like 3 or 4 times a week.

[COLOR="Navy"][FONT="Comic Sans MS"]Calil blinked over and over again as she looked at the mass of vines before her, confused. "I don't understand, help who? If I help someone I have to tell the others in the group...they could help too. I know they can." The vines remained silent as she looked at them waiting for her own answers. "I need answers of my own. I agree to help you, but before I do I need you to know this one thing. I trust my family with my life and I think you should trust them with yours. They can help and they can keep you and I both protected if you need it." "Need...help...death awaits..." "I get that but if you need it...ugh, fine, I'll help but afterwards we need a serious talk about your communication skills." She began walking forward following the vines still talking her own nonsense as she waited for her own answers.[/FONT][/COLOR] sorry its so short you guys, I'm suffering a sinus infection impacted wisdom teeth.

I even still have the original game systems Original nintendo, super nintendo, sega genisi, dreamcast, playstation one as well. heh, so yeah. I got old school.

[COLOR="Navy"][FONT="Comic Sans MS"]Calil looked around the blown up building gathering what little things she had left from the rubble and stopped when a pouch was uncovered as she moved a piece of rubble. Frowning she picked it up and opened it seeing the bloodroot within, it pulsed and she gasped feeling as if her body had gone numb. She frowned more as what seemed like small movies began to play through her mind. She blinked as they cleared and scowled making a beeline for Penbrooke. "You!" "Calil, what's the matter?" "Don't play dumb with me you son of a bitch! You did something to me didn't you! Why is it I keep seeing a man named Dean?" Everyone but Draco froze and looked at her, Dawner ran forward and put his hands on her shoulders. "You remember?" "Remember? Remember what exactly? I just keep seeing these flashes...him walking away from me...and it hurts but I can't figure out why..." Dawner looked at the others and blinked as Penbrooke shook his head. "She doesn't need to know. Just leave it and lets go." Calil opened her mouth to respond but haulted in her argument at the look from Penbrooke. "Don't ask about it Nekoi." She didn't push it further but decided to ask Karyn or Dawner about it later on that evening. She was sure one of them would have an answer for her about it. Putting the last of her things in a small sack she threw it over her shoulder and waited for the others to gather their things together so they could move on to the Inn.[/FONT][/COLOR] *I am SO happy we're getting this one moving again. I've missed this RP greatly. It just wasn't the same without you Dritz. We tried...we just couldn't bring our selves to go on without you.XD

[COLOR="Navy"][FONT="Comic Sans MS"]*jumps on Takuuya's back* WHOO HOO! I wanna get this going too! I've been missing this one it was soooo much fun! Lets go lets go lets go![/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="Navy"][FONT="Century Gothic"][FONT="Comic Sans MS"]Name: Ginger Aps Mutant Name: Fang Age: 21 Sex: Female Mutant Ability: She has to ability to transform into a black wolf and able to control the size of which she transforms into. In her human form she has the hearing and sense of smell of a wolf. Bio: Born into a low class family she had to grow up at a very early age meaning she never had to chance to be a child. Her mother raising her on her own was degradeing and constantly telling her she was no good and would never amount to anything. This lead to almost constant stress when it came to her trying to get involved with anything as far as afterschool programs or even her grades. Once she was able to be out on her own she lived pretty much on the streets but always had a childish personality. She discovered her ability on a random day running from the cops, fear driving her she wished only to blend in and found her self in the body of a black wolf seeming to look like a stray dog. As she played with the ability she learned she could control how big her canine form could get. She now roams the streets mostly playing the role of a lovable stray dog. Hey, you get good food that way from some pretty nice kids. Short Physical Description:[URL="http://media.photobucket.com/image/anime%20wolf%20girl/Eternal-Wolf-Spirit/Anime%20Images/Cool_Anime_Girl.jpg?o=588"]Ginger[/URL] Also in her human form she has slightly pointed ears and elongated fangs. Personality: Playful and childish she loves to run around and burn energy but when its down to the wire she knows how and when to be serious. Driven by the urge to protect thanks to her canine ways. Character Snippet: Ginger strolled down the sidewalk in her wolf form seeming to look like the familar stray that roamed around the street around that part of town. It seemed like just another day but to her horror it wasn't. As she rounded the corner she yelped as the feeling of a large net filled her senses. She was assulted with the smell of cheap booze and smoke as the portly dog catcher sneered in her face. "Got you, rotten mutt. It's the gas room for you flea bag." [I]Figures[/I], she thought, [I]I get the one god for saken man who hates dogs[/I]. She took a deep breath and let her form grow till she was looking the man eye to eye. Smelling urine she was pleased that she did her job and quickly turned tail and ran into a nearby alley changing into her human form and hiding behind a trash can. She really hated doing this...but at the same time, it was kinda fun. She let a large smile spread across her face and giggled into her hand. [/FONT][/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="Navy"][FONT="Comic Sans MS"]Duo dashed along the tunnel as the wolf followed madly, she was panting and was exceptionally pleased that Grettel could keep up with her. She spun around and kicked a large rock at the wolf gasping as it caught it in its large saw like jaws and crushed it with out a problem. "Fuck it!" Spinning back around she took off sprinting and skidded to a hault as they entered a large room, looking around Duo knew that they were in trouble. There was more than enough room here for the wolf to use its tail and that meant that they really were in trouble. "Son of a bitch!" She turned around and had Grettle help her with the door and just as they got it locked the wolf hit it hard enough to launch them back and into the oppisite wall. It was than that Duo had a good look around seeing the large pieces of scrap and the old tools used for making the metal scraps she grabed a pick and readied her self happy to see Grettel doing much the same. "Well, I never thought I'd be fighting for my life in a place like this eh?" She looked over at her companion and saw no room for jokes and nodded. She looked up at the dirt ceiling and hoped that Kilo was having more luck than she was.[/FONT][/COLOR] I'll be posting Kilo's part for Sazabi soon, SO much on my plate right now, but I managed to get back in here so yay for me! XD. I'll be back to speed here soon.

[COLOR="Navy"][FONT="Comic Sans MS"]Yet all o us have our own little quiks, or glitches, so why does it make her so special? XD Its just cause she's Chibi I suppos4.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="Navy"][FONT="Comic Sans MS"]Wow, to easy, just some of my friends are this way. My best friend is weird. He's just out there. He chases laser lights and bouncy balls like a cat, and worse yet, he has run into a wall or two with the laser light part. So yeah. Weird. But than again, it doesn't say much about me when I do it too does it? XD[/FONT][/COLOR]

Ok, first off, sorry for the absance, I'll post again soon, I have been dealing with emergency one after another, my son broke his arm, than my daughter started teething which has taken up alot of time and on top of all that I am now stuck in a hotel due to house problems. So I wanted to catch everyone up to speed. I will still be posting just not as often as I like. Sorry for the inconvence but that's life.

Yeah I an vouch for you there chivi, I'm the same way. Good music makes me happy. XD

[COLOR="Navy"][FONT="Comic Sans MS"]I know that feeling Chibi, but its cause I've been so stressed latly that I've been smoking more than I should be, lets just say that my 'little brothers' wife is kinda psycho, but we won't get into that. He's not really my little brother, but he's my best friend who is like a little brother to me and his wife HATES my GUTS! She thinks I'm trying to take he place which is WACKED! But Oh well. *shrug* so much for a friendly visit ne? [/FONT][/COLOR]

Duo tapped her toes on the ground and nodded back to Grettle who in turn nodded back. "Keep up and lets go." She dashed off down the tunnel, the hair on the back of her neck standing more and more on end, her skin felt like it was crawling but she pushed it aside and continued on with Grettel not far behind her. She sprinted and skidded to a hault as she came face to face with a large wall of caved in rubble with an opening large enough for a child or a person Duo's size to fit through with a bit of a squezze. She took a deep breath and began to head through it Grettel following after and than once back steady on her feet she continued to dash through the tunnel looking for anything that could be useful and keeping an eye out for the child. OCC: Sorry its so short, tight on time, but the next one will make up for it. Promise.
