Akieen Cloud

Indaya peeked over the hedge and sighed, looking at the elder beside her she smiled meekly. "Niothing yet...I don't think they're coming tonight Kashka." "You'd be surpirsed little one. They hear of a Pather Raid and they are all over it." "I still don't understand...why are they so hostile twoards us? not liek WE attacked them, it was our ancestors." "And as a tribute to them we must wipe out the bastatds that attacked us." Indaya heaved a sigh and looked back over the hedge to see shadows running across the grounds. "You were right Kashka." "Told you little one." "Don't get cocky old man, you may have known that but I can garentee you that they only fight us because we fight them." "And how do you think that." "Because, like us they only want to survive." "And the only way we're to know is if we speak to the leader him-self." "Maybe I will someday." She blinked as the old man's face was in her's. "If you ever speak of such things again I'll start a rebellion my-self." Her eyes got dark and cold. "You can try, and you will be killed." The old man nodded and looked up. "They're all in, I think we can springthe trap now..." "I'll say, if I know them and if they are as good as you say then there are more coming..." "What make you so sure?" "Because if the leader is a true leader, he would not send his entire gagn into a building full of the enemy, unless he either had a death wish or was stupid." "You act like you know alot." "I kow more then you think Kashka. Move around and surround the building. We end this tongiht. Leave the leader to me." She slipped on her white face mask and made sure her weapons were in place then, crouching low to the ground ran through the hedges and twoards the building infront of her.

Ali looked up as Matt began to walk away and frowned, she threw the bottle at hima dn yelled at his back. "I dont need your pity Grave! I can take care of my-self! Your the one who always gets hurt!" He turned to see she was crying and blinked. "Your always foolish and never think! What if you lose? Huh? What then? What am I gonn do then? Who am I gonna fight with?" Matt blinked again as she looked away. "Matt, please, I'm begging you...take the potion and then fight...be at your best, your to hurt...I'll live...please. Becareful..." She watched as he looked down at the bottle and then at her and nodded. "And don't think this is becasue I like you Grave. I still hate your guts." She smiled alittle and leaned ont he rubble behind her and waited patiently for this to end.

"The foam was thick that morning, unlike I had ever seen, abnormally so actually. The paddles wouldn't even go throught he water underneath. It shocked me becasue I have been sailing for years, ever since I was 3 with my father, and I have never seen something like that. It was like the water didn't want me to sail that day, so I docked here in Torgas and well, I've been waiting ever since then. I hear that there's a ship around here that can cut throught this mess and get me to the next port but finding it is the thing.I hear it'sa deadly looking thing, all black and red, I hear it needs work done as well, nothing I cant handle I'm sure. But as I stated, it's finding the bloody thing thats my problem...so here I am spreding around the rumor of this ship and I need it my self, gods know somebody else has gotten to it by now, knowing my luck with this sorta thing. Then again I could be lucky and just stumble on it. I'm clumsy that way as well." The bar tender looked at her and shook his head. "You know girlie, you sure don't know the first thing about this port do you?" "No, never been here, why?" "You see that mound of dirt and debris there?" "Yeah, it was there when I got in here." "Yup, thats your ship kid." "Your shitting me...that's the Sea Scareb? That's the ship thats said to be able to sail through anything?" "Yep, that be here girilie, looks like you have your work cut out for you." "Sure does...lucky for me, this trip I'm going on is to find the largest known treasure in the world." The bar tender lookedat her and scoffed. "You mean Black Jack's? That's just a tale thats told to make kids want to leave home." "What if I told you I've seen it?" "You? You've seen Black Jakc's gold?" "Not just gold old man, diamonds and jewles like you'lll never believe. And only those who know where it is can find it." "And you girlie, you know where it is?" "Not right off hand, but you see this?" She held up a golden locket around her neck, this here holds the location to the Isalnd of the Damned, the island where Black Jack hid all his treasure. My father, you may have heard of him, Fargo?" "You mean your Fargo Kreel's daughter?" "That be right old man. I need a crew and a ship, that ship. It's gonna take a while for me to fix her up but I can do it, and after taht I'm sailing outta here with agood crew and we're going to the Isle of the Damned to get that treasure." "And who do you think will side with a crazy young girl like you?" "You never know, now do you?" she downed her drink and walked away smiling. 8 Years later.... Standing beside the giant scarlet ship Lieanda felt a deep sense of pride take over her heart. She had fixed the Sea Scareb in only 8 years by her-self. She could remember the day she come into this little port, at only 12, now at 20 she had fille dout and beciome a true lady of the sea. Her skin bronzed and her hands weathered she took a deep breath and pulled her shirtup and tied it around her waist to cool off. She was done with the first task, fixing the ship. Now for the harder part...finding a crew that would believe her ot want to get off this rock so damn bad they'd go with anyone. Her smile couldn't be doused even by the thought of going on her own but she knew that someone had to have as much passion for sailing s she did. She grabbed her fliers and changed shirts, she was only staying another day and then in the morning she was off. She posted them everywhere she was allowed and then went to the bar to wait. The old man looked up and her and smiled, he had grown to be a father figure to her over the corse of the 8 years. "Finally got it doen eh Lie?" "Yes'sir I did! And she looks great!" "You bet, you get those fliers out as well?" "Just put out the last one. Now we wait." "Yup, we wait." She took the drink he handed her and took and sip of the foam on top and sighed. Her heart was tight and her hands sweating, she was nervous to see the kinds of people that would show up to be in her group...only time would tell. She sat and waited patiently as more and more sailos came and went. She sipped the drink slowly and sighed. The day was leaving quickly and still no one had showed. "How long you plan on waiting Lei?" "Not much longer...if no one shows with in the next hour or so I'm gone and going on my own." "That'd be to dangerous." "And you know me." "Aye, that I do. Give it some time, I'm sure you'll have some one Lei." "By the powers I hope your right." She sighed agian and down the rest of the drinka nd smiled as he gave her her second one of the day.

Sea Scareb is going up today or tongiht so look for it. Thanks to all that joined and Sign ups are still open momentarily. Thank you and happy posting.

Ali's eyes snapped open as she heard Matt scream. She gritted her teeth and looked up fromt he rubble she was behind. He was surround by what looked like copies of the stange machine he as fighting. She lifted herslef off the ground and drew her sword, as another copy went to attack Matt she threw it with all her might, Matt bliked as the copy fell dead. "Y-You don't think I'd let you have all the fun now do you?" "I don't need your help." "For once, swallow your pride and let me help you." "Your to injured to do anything Utaro." "I-If that wer true, I wouldn't be standing now whould I?" He looked at her and saw that her eyes had a certian fire in them he had never seen before. "You need someone to watch your back...I may be slow at this moment, but I'm not useless. I'll watch you from back here so you can concentrate on doing what you need to do." "Your stupid, you could get killed." "At least it would be helping and not laying on the ground like a wounded animal." He frowned and nodded. "Just this once." "Good, go for the one on the left, he's about to make a move and he's going for your right." "How do you know?" "Just trust me." "Whatever." Matt did as he was told and found to his astonishment she had been right. "How did you-" "Don't worry about that right now. Just concentrate!" She sliced the head from another copy and gasped as pain shot through her. "I told you, your to injured." She rounded on him and growled. "Listen to me, if you EVER want to have children, I suggest you shut the hell up and just fight the bastard infront of you with out another word." He blinked and nodded as she spun back around killing another copy as it passed.

Any of the Bahamuts were awsome. I too have many favs but I think the ones that I use the most would have to be: For FFVII, Bahamut Zero. Hands down, Knights of the round is cool and dont get me wrong so are alot tof the ohters but Zero take s the cake in apperance there. FFVIII, I would say Greiver, Ultimieca's i know but you hae to adimitt that lion kicked ***. Then there was Cerberus. Good apperance and really good effect. Loved it.Aleander gained cuto points there too. FFIX, that one is touhg, there are a lot of summons in FFIX I mean you ahve all the jewels and every one of them is a summon, so I mean sheesh. But I like Eiko's Madeen. Madeen was the **** to me there. the way she was summoned and of course the holy power. FX, this is one that takes some time for me, the summons is this are all thought out and created so well, the looks and skills that each posses are way out there. But I have to say that Shiva and Bahamut form FFX are the best looking, Shiva I think is the most likeing, she has a real high tolerance of pain and can take some hits along with healing herslef as well, where as Bahamut just has sheer strength, which is always a good thing to pull you outta a jam here and there. But overall I think to ask to choose just one summon is kinda hard, it's diffrent for every game, though we each have the summon we call on the most.

I knwo for a fact that there are a few romatics here in this place and I'd love to hear about how you met your one and only. I can tell you when I met mine it was war. lol. We didn't like to be around each other for the longest time, some people thought we hated each other but inside we both admit that we loved each other from the start. The day I met him I was in ninth grade, a freshmen in high school and he, well, to be honest he was the biggest jerk I had ever met, egotistic and stubbron to a fault. He was proud and he was distant from everyone except his Best Friend, practicly his brother and his sister. I remember walking in and seeing him and havign the oh so girlish thought of 'Oh, my...he's cute.' go through my mind, then he began to try and show off. He won me over by just being him and well, showing off really, I never let on that I liked him till I was a Sophmore at a homecomign dance...I was in a bad realtionship with one guy and well, I had always like him. He came up behind me at the dance and after that I was like a moth to flame. I don't remember how many hints i gave him afther that dance that me and my boyfriend had broken up but he finally gave it a go and well...we're having a son...lol. We're going on three years now, four of knowing one another. I know mine's not all that romantic as I'm sure some others will be but I think it's funny. We loved each other fromt he day we laid eyes on one another and never admitted it, we were to stubbron and proud. To be honest he's still stubbron adn proud, same as me, but I love him for it and I wouldn't change him for anything in the world. Mine's kinda comical, but I wounder if anyone has had a simalar happening such as this or if it was the complete oppisit. Like mine was form enemies to lovers, is there anyone who had one that was more...romantic I guess...lol.

Donya looked up at the sky as a cloud passed over the sun and sighed. "What a day, first I'm late, I get a freaking brat in my face, now this...what next? This place really is hell." She looked up as a glitter passed across her face, it was Tom. Standing she pocketed the little pad and pencil and walked towards him when a shadow passed across her's. "Always a attention grabber..." She looked up into the face of a large boy who seemed tintent on talking to her. "And what can I do for you Frankinstien?" "You and me, we are to be on a team." "They've already been decided dummy." "No, you and me, we to be a team." "Your weak, and your clumsy, if I get stuck with you I'll offf you my-self." she walked around him and waved back. "But good luck anyway." She looked around and felt a tug at her heart, she was alittle lonely, no one really talked to her, she never let them get close enough to. "I'm such a bitch I neer really cared." She was alone, and frankly prefered it that way, but she wouldn't mind a friend. She looked up as Tom turned to leave, she followed quickly and quietly, he looked to his side as she came up on his right. "You actually being social?" "Lemme ask you a question, are you hoping same as me that you dont get any of the forigners?" He nodded. "Thought so...I hate to see the bumbling idiots I'm temaed with...you know, they team us up with diffrent dorms right?" He nodded again. "well, good luck Tom, hope you get a good team." She extended her hand and he took it shaking it lightly. "You too." she took a right and went to her room to think and, well, pray for the next 45 minutes.

Donya held up her pad and looked around, so amny students were around and she was sure she had already gotten the interesting ones, till a teacher and student met her eyes. the two were sparring and twisting inthe air, she let her eyes soften as she memorized the sight and looked down, she saw it on the paper as if someone were tracing it for her, she began to move the coal pencil lightly across the paper making marks and fineing them. she spent a while doing this till it looked right, then she went in and began to darken the lines amkng them more visible and honing them down to the end. She held up the finished peice only five minutes alter and smiled lightly, it was just like she saw it, perfectm and life-like. she closed the book and leaned back against the tree she was under and sighed. She closed her eyes letting her mind wonder.

Donay looked as the boys ran from Tom, she nodded in approval, she had known they didn't styand a chance against him, it wasn't like many did. She looked up and across the table as a tall blonde girl looked down at her, the girl's smile was crule and evil. Something donya was used to. "I see you be a student ere?" "she had afunny accent that Donya could place, something mixed, she looked up at ehr and blinked slowly. "That would be correct, you have a problem with that?" "Not at all lasssie, as a matter-o-fact I was opin' you were from ere'" Donya rolled her eyes, another foreighn student that thought they were tough shit. She scanned the girl over and let her eyes linger on the whip at her side. "Ah, I see you lookin at me friend ere' you should be scard of it, I'm plenty leathal." Donya smiled wide, a challange had just been offered. "Is that so?" "Is sure is." "You care to try?" The girl's hand flew to the whip and Donya had only a split second to react as the lash came down on her arm. "You be a fast one lassie." "And you underestamate every person in this school." "You ave' no weapon, what can you do?" Donya let her eyes go cold and her smile turn crule. "You'd like to see?" She planted her foot on the table and back flipped dragging the whip and gril with her, she pulled the girl into her face and reached over to grab her fork, she looked into the foreighn girls eyes and let the twisted smile grow as she put the fork to her temple. "You think your so slick with your fancy moves and whip, you think I give a damn? This school is brutal enough, you think people here give a damn about all that shit? You can't move the right way, you die." she was trembleing in her hands and she like it, it was an additive to her adreiline. "I have news for you princess, your not in your home anymore, your in hell on earth." She yanked the whip away from the girl and threw her back, spinning are ound she brought her heeled boot across her face gashing it and sending the girl to the floor, blood oozing from her cheek. She threw the whip down and looked at her. "Stupid bitch." she grabed her tray and turned as the crowd moved to let her through she caught Tom's eyes and raised an eyebrow at him, he simply closed his eyes in response. She had heard that a fight, a big fight was coming up, teams of two, diffrent dorms, but same school. If she were to be paired with anyone, she would enjoy it to be Tom, he was one fo the best in his dorm, a winner. She dumped her tray and went outside to sit in the sun and think, her pad and paper with her, she was a sketcher, but no one knew, and she planned to keep it that way.

Donya swung her foot out and caught the dummy in the side splitting it in half, she stopped and looked at Lee. "You know, no one like a show off,its not good for one's oversized head." He smiled again and looked away from her. "Speak for yourself." She growled and threw her dummy at the wall busting it. "You have a sharp tounge, that could get you into trouble." "Only if I let it." She smiled sarcasticly and looked at him, her dark blue hair following her movments. "You could use that tounge for other uses, some of which could make you very popular around her with a few of the girls." His cheeks flushed at her meaning and she laughed. "Your not half as dumb as I thought Lee." She finished her drill and looked at the mentor. "I dont give a damn what you say to me, I'm going for a bite to eat, we only have 5 minutes left anyway." She wiped the sweat form her forehead and walked away waving back at Lee. "See ya rookie." She entered the mess hall and went through, the ladies looked at ehr grinning. "You left early again didn't you Donya?" "It's spagetti day, you damn right I did." She saluted them kindly nd sat down next to a window looking outside. "What I would give to be out there again...what I would give." She twisted the pasta around her fork and took the bite chewing slowly enjoying the taste. She sighed as the quiet surrounded her and closed her eyes. She dropped the fork for another bite and heard the sound of metal hit the table, her eyes snapped open and she saw with anger her food was gone, she looked around and up meeting the gaze of a younger teacher there. "Chip, you know how dangerous it is to take my food." The 20 year old youthe sat next to her. "And you know how dangerous it is to bail on training." Snatching her food back she took a bite chewing it deliberatly showing no signs of caring. "And I care?" "Mr. Jacobs is not a guy you wanna bail on." "I've doen it before Chip." "Donya, you have a death wish?" "Often." "That's not funny." She shoved her fork in his face making him jump backa nd blink. "And neither is you getting into my bussiness. I'm a big girl Chip. I can handle my-self. Thanks." "Something tells me your not that thankful." "Your right. I'm not. Now, get out of my face." He shrugged and left her to her own thoughts.

Donya walked down her hall as usual, her head tucked down so her eye were half hidden. She could hear the others already there for the training and looked up to see Mr. Jacob send a young man to the suicide drill. She would most liekly get smae for being late, then again, she was always late. she stepped up to him and he nodded, she was given a worn out dummy that looked like had seen its better days. She pulled off her leather jacket and sighed as many heads tunred as they always did from her out fit. She hated the attention it drew but liked the flexiblity of it so she refused to change. Many said that she should change if she didn't like the attention but she figured anyone who tried anything she could pretty mcuh beat the hell out fo anyway. She reached back and let her fist hit the dummy in the face, a puff od dust and sand sprouted from it as her blow struck forcefully. she noted with a smile as the heads turned away again. That was more like it, no one to bother her. she brought her knee up and into the side of the dummy and once again noted with satisfaction as the sand and dust came from it. Donya loved to fight and was good at it, she was the best in her old neighborhood, she was a gang leader, and for good reason. Another swift kick and the arm came off flying across the room to land by the boy who was also suicide training. She looked up for only a moment the went back to beating the dummy. "this is ridiculous, I dont see why we have to do this stupid shit every time we're late. Mr. Jacob looked at her and walked over. "If you do not like it Filum, you can go to the hot box. Would that tickle your fancy?" She scowled and barred her teeth. "No, I don't need to loose the weight." "That I suggest you keep your mouth shut and keep to your training." She rolled her eyes and slmaed her fist into the dummy's face breaking the wood inside. "Yes'sir." She frowned and continued to hit the dummy, noe harder then ever as her temper began to flair.

"In anceint times there were people held ablitities that surpassed any normal human in the world, they were known for their bravery and cunning, strength and skill. These people could use magic, and they could talk to animals as they pleased, get into your mind and tell what you were thinking. These people were the heros of this land, long ago. Many were kind and gentle, never wanting to go into fights and never wishing to have a war between them and the world. These people did not ride a horse into battle as you have seen many knights do, or warriors. No, these people rode dragons. They were known as Dragon Riders. Their magic came form their dragon partners, they wer connect to them by a link that was a bond for eternity, if one hurt, so did the other, to have a dragon was to have another heart beating within your chest. It was in these times that the evil king, Mahciron was ruling, under his rule the land suffered and died each day till there was hardly anything left to salvage. The people of Hergon looked to the magic useres to help them and bring down the evil king, the Dragon Riders were obligated to help the people, it was their duty to rpotect and serve the weak. Battle raged and were fought everyday between the Riders and the armies of Machiron, and it would seem that the Riders would win. But a crule twist of fate ripped the victory away from them at the moutian of Falgeriona. A fellow Rider, one of the strongest, Zogorth, betrayed them all. Giving the location to the Riders keep and sactuary Machiron's armies were merciless. They attacked night and day, never stopping, never giving the Riders a chance to fight back. As the battle raged Zogorth tooko it farther, showing the armies the nesting grounds of the dragons. So many eggs were lost that night, so many dragons never to be born. The battle got fiercer by the day and Zogorth grew tired of the battle, he wanted victory, so he took it. Zogorth killed Machiron and took over his armies, he began to bring in Ogres and Goblins to help him with the war, Trolls and terrifying creatures that seemed to lurk only in your worst nightmares. He used them to kill the very humans that the Riders fought so hard to protect. Zogorth knew how they fought and knew what to expect, the Riders began to loose their fight. He picked them out and killed them one by one, growing to be the most powerful Rider ever to be seen. Zogorth wanted to be known all around the world and so he decided to make himself King. He was known as a dark king one that had no mercy, one that only killed. The Riders were lost, the last killed and the eggs were taken to Zogorth's castel behind the Black Walls. Ever since then we have lived in a world of fear and oppresion. For us old timers, we await the time when another Rider will be found and step forward to save this land and the people in it." The old man looked up at the faces of his home town and sighed, it was impossible to think that one person would believe his story, impossible. He sighed again and began to head to his house, the towns people too were returning home when a young lady walked up to him. "Excuse me, how did you know if a person was a Rider?" "They had beautiful markings on thier hands, sometimes white, or a plae blue, sometimes red or a dark orange." She nodded and he saw with curiousity as the gilr rubber her hand on her pants leg. He did not recgonize her as one of the girls from the town. "You are new?" "I am just passing through sir, that's all." "I see, that was a curious question you asked of me to be passsin through." "Yes, sir, I apologize." "Do not, you have the insignia, do you not?" Her face grew pale and she looked up at him. "Yes, I do, what does it mean?" "It means child, that you are the begining of the next generation of gaurdieans of this great land." She looked towards the forest where two great yellow eyes glowed. "Your dragon?" "Ebony, yes." "And your name young one?" "I am Skei, Skei Minomora." The old man smiled warmly and held out his hand, she gasped as she saw the same insignia on his palm. "Well, it is a pleasure to meet you Skei, I am Tonma, I too in the old days was a Riders as yourself. I will train you and hopefully, we will meet others like you on the way to the Dark Walls." She nodded and followed him inside, hopes of finding others as well racing through her mind. "But be warned little one, there may be those who have sided with Zogorth already, we may have another war on our hands before long." Again she nodded and closed the door behind her, the yellow eyes never leaving the spot she dissappered into. Unknown to them that around the world others too were finding their own dragon partners, the new genertation of Dragon Riders was about to emerge but to which side would they turn was up to them. Once again the Allies were aginst Zogorth Sighn Ups: You need one for you and your dragon.

Ali's eyes flickered opnen and she saw nothing but fire, her head swam as she tried to sit up. Pain shot through her making her gasp, her arm was broken. She looked up at Matt and saw with satisfaction that he was unharmed, for the most part, a few burns could be seen on his chest and arms but nothing major. She blinked as she realized he was ready to fight, his robe was gone and he seemed more determined then ever.As she tried to lift her-self off the gorund her left leg throbbed sending her back into darkness. She wasinjured but not deathly so.

Ali sighed as she opened her apartment door, he small dog running up and licking her hand. "Hey boy...not in a good mood right now buddy." The dog shyed down and followed her through the rooms til she got to her own, opening the window she stopped adn looked around. "Smoke? Why in the worlds am I smelling smoke?" She looked out the window and saw the shrine on the next street over burning. "Oh, no...thats Matt's shrine..." She ran through the apartment and out the door closing it behind her. She ran through the yards the connected the streets and cleanly jumped the wall to get in. She gasped and fought for air as the smoke and debris filled the air. she looked around and covered ehr mouth with her shirt. "Matt! Are you in here!?" she listened carefully and blinked as she heard him above the roar of the fire. "I'll Kill you for what you did!" She followed his voice and saw him as he made a lunge for the person infront of him. She could hear some of the conversation. "Join us and we will rid this world of demons together." "Burn in hell!" "Why fight us when you yourself hate demons...especially that one that embarssed you so badly. that half breed girl." Matt paused and looked at him. "Are you sayign even the half demons will go as well?" "Oh, yes, anyone with demon in their blood." Matt looked at the ground and seemed to be in deep thought. Ali watched for a moment before she heard the roof give in, her feet moved before she thought of the concequenses. Matt looked up and felt her body collide with his shoving him out of the way as the large piece of the roof caved in ontop of her. All Matt could do was watch a Ali dissappered under the ruble of the shrine he cared for so much.

Ali looked at Gavin and sighed. "Just woundering how you take them being so, untrusting..." "You have make them trust you." "And if I can't? "What did you do that was so wrong?" "I hurt a humans pride." Gavin nodded. "That will often do it." "But the thing is, if I hadn't he would have died." "You care for this human?" "...I dont know." Gavin smiled knowingly. :You've worked with him long then." "Not to long, but I mean...maybe. I just, I'm so confused." She buried her face in her knees and waithed for something to happen.

Ali walked out of the cabin that had held the girl and sighed, she had a large bruise on her cheek and a small amount of blood was caked on her bottom lip. Mat looked at her and Royce and at the portal. "Lets go." Ali didn't move. "I'm gonna stay here for a little while longer..." "Ali, we have to report, stop being so stupid." Ali's body became stiff and full of hurt. "What is it about me you hate so much Grave? Is it becasue I have a line of demon in me? Or what? You're working with demons, why should I be anydiffrent?" Royce looked away and left sensing that this was a convorsation better left alone to them. Matt looked at her, his face set in a frown. "How, many times so far have I helped you? Saved you? Gave you something that could have helped me but didn't take it for my-self? And still you think I am an enemy?" "Why did you do that Ali? Give me the potion when you could have kept it your self?" "Becasue your the one who will be facing Kahu, you'll need it more then any of us." She looked away and turned heading back for hte cabin. "Where are you going Utaro?" "I told you I'm staying here for a little while?" "Why?" "None of your bussiness Grave. It's not as if you actually care in the first place." "We have to report." "You go and report! I've had enough for now Matt...I'm not ready to be insulted or mistrusted anymore. I thought I had proven I was trust worthy enough when I took on Kahu to give you time, risked my own life for yours...but I was worng and I am not ready to be continually judged...I have to think on things..." "Utaro." "Don't start Matt. Just go." She walked into the hut and as Matt turned she called out his name. "Matt, one more thing." He spun around as a vial was thrown at him. "That's the antidote to the love potion..." "How?-" "It's the same smell, diffrent color...for once, Matt, just once, trust me." She didn't speak further and he left through the portal, she sat ont he floor looking at the clippings that the brothers had kept,they were of her. "Is this where my blood line came from? Or was there a bigger reason?" She walked around the hut for about an hour before her foot struck something hard under the bed. Reaching under she pulled out a box, looking inside she gasped. "This...this is all spirit energy...but how did they aquire it al..." She looked under the bed and blinked there were boxes and bottles of what looked liek spirit energy. She ran out the door and into Matt, he fell over and grunted as she followed landing ontop of him. "Matt! What are you doing here?" "Koenma told me to come backa nd get you...what's your problem?" "Whatever, help me with all this. seems this is why they were so strong..and it seems this is who Kahu was going to to get his energy." Matt looked into the hut and whistled. "Thats alot of energy." "It's more than that...those in the bottles are human spirits." "You mean they took spirits?" "Apparently. Like I said help me get all this back to Koenma, I'm pretty sure he'd like to know about it." "Your right." As Matt began to pick up boxes he spotted a clipping of her adn dorped them heavily, his face grim. "Matt! Are you trieing to break those things?" "Are you with them?" "What?" "Your one of them aren't you?" "No, what are you talking about?" He turned and branished a clipping at her face. "This. Your one of them." "No, why do you think I wanted to stay here. Someone has been watching me. I dont know anything about this." "We'll see." She frowned as the slowly picked up the boxes and bottles and carried them to Koenma. As soon as they arrived Matt grabbed her arm and drug her into Koenma's office, Suki looked up confused, Ali guessed that they hadn to run tests on the antidote to make sure it was right. "Matt, Ali, may I ask the wounderful visit?" "She's one of them." Matt, not this again, just because she has demon in her doens't mean-" Matt thrust the clipping under Koenma's nose. "This is odd...how did they know where to look for you Ali?" "I don't know. Matt think I'm in league with them." "Well, this is evidance isn't it Koenma?" Alii yanked her arm away from Matt and looked at him. "You really don't trust me do you?" "No. Never will." "Fine, do wha you wnat Koenma. What ever it takes to get this ignorant jerk to trust me." "That'll never happen." Koenma looked up, his face solem. "I apologize Ali...until I can get this out and see why you were, if you were, being followed, I must request you stay here." "Fine, but who'll go in my place?" "No one." Ali nodded, holding back the tears se turned to walk away. "One more thing Ali, you will have to be monitored...and put in a cell." "I am a prisoner now? For something I didn't do?" "I am sorry...but regulations state-" Ali spun around and for the first time they saw the demon in her blood line emerge. "To hell with yoiur regulation Koenma! You can sdhove them and your pacifier up your ass! I have given nothing but loyalty, blood, sweat andtears into the job and just like that I'm a criminal!? That's bullshit! Just because a stupid young man thinks I am dangerous because one of my ancestors was a demon! To hell with this shit! When I get out I'm working alone!" Matt smirked, but it did not reach his eyes. "If you ever get out." "Shove it up your ass Grave. Your just afraid I'll take your place one day, or maybe your just afriad that we'll make a good team. either way..." She walked way followed by three ogres. Her harsh words to both the boys still ringing off the walls. A dark voice filled the room, Hiei laughed and came out of the shadows. "Are all spirit detectives that way?" Koenma looked up, his face some what pale. "I need you to do smoething for me Hiei, get as much information on her as you can. I need to know everything." Hiei frowned and nodded, he was gone with a flick of black leaving Matt and Koenma alone.

[COLOR=RoyalBlue]Evy put her hand on Nicks shoulder gently, her eyes nervous. "Nick, what are we going to do? They are the spawn of Sarda...which means...the Divine.." "I know little one, I know." Evy looked at Danya and felt the anger and evil pouring from her very being. "She is the daughter of Lucifer...the ruler of hell itself..." "No, young one, do you see the horns, her afhter has been killed by her, she is now the ruler of the under plan." "She-How could she kill her own kin?" "They have no hearts Evy, be on your gaurd, the younger ones will not know what to do, let me take them for now...I'll call if I need aid." She nodded and stepped back allowing Nick room, she heard Danya laugh and felt a shiver of terror run through her, she was scared.[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]Danya stood looking at the elder angel and laughed. "You are an elder...good, I'll get much power from you, shall we dance angel? Nerus, you may have the younger, till you aquire the right amount of energy I fear you are no match for an eler of his calibur, he is one of the Divine, only older. an ancient." She saw Nick's eyes flicker to the younger and laughed. "Do not worry, my other will take good care of her, I hear that the flesh of younger angles is so tender and sweet to a evils taste." She laughed even more as a shadow fell on to Nicks face. [COLOR=RoyalBlue]"You threaten all fo us here you vile beast, why do you decide to take the younger as well?"[/COLOR] "As you say ancient, we have no hearts." As Nerus went for Evy Danya charged at Nick, her this blade coming up quickly and they she saw qwith satisfaction that her speed surpised the anceint. [COLOR=RoyalBlue]"You have skill Sarda."[/COLOR] "As do you anceint." she bit down on hsi hand causing him to cry out. [COLOR=RoyalBlue]"You have no honor in a fight."[/COLOR] "I'm here to win, at any cost, if it means unfair, so be it." He claws extended and she smiled showing off her fangs. "Like I said angel, let us see if you can dance out of my way."[/COLOR] [COLOR=RoyalBlue]Evy felt bile and fear rise in her throat as the being came at her, she screamed and held up her hand and a strong wind knocked Nerus off balance. She heard the other call from the other end as her and Nick sparred around each other. [COLOR=DarkRed]"She's an elemental angel Nerus, do becareful, I'd hate to see you beaten by such a weak opponent."[/COLOR] Evy felt anger rush her and she surged forward, her bow came down on Nerus between his blades and she rose into the air, taking aim she fired an arrow into his shoulder. She felt panic rise to greet her as he merely shrugged ti out of his back and looked up at her smiling cruelly before following her into the air. [COLOR=DarkRed]"You are weak angel, you will die..."[/COLOR] "I will die then fighting you." She pulled back another arrow and felt the bowstring sing as it was relased, the wind behind it picked up adn she smiled as it pierced him deeper. "I may not be that strong, but I am not weaker then you take me for." She gasped and took flight as he chased her down, his blade grazed a wing and she fell to the ground hard. Nick yelled from the other side but Evy was to off balance to hear what was said. Nerus stood over her as Danya got Nick to the ground as well. Evy's eyes were teerified.[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]Danya looked down at Nick and scoffed. "Pathetic, you are the gaurdiean of this place, how so weak you are." [COLOR=RoyalBlue]"You used the younger against me."[/COLOR] "Mayhaps, I did, you can do nothing for it now." She picked Nick up adn hauled him to where Nerus had Evy pinned and threw him down next to her. "The Farplane is ours Nerus. Wht would you like to do first?" Nerus smiled and looked down at Evy. Torture.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue]Evy felt a wave of pure pain shoot through her wings and gasped. "Nick, something isn not right." He nodded and they began to look for Lu and the Divine angels.[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]Danya looked aon in amusement as Nerus has his fun, she felt the prickle on the back of her neck and smiled more. "Nerus, they are coming...all three of them." He turned and looked up as the three falshes of light shined down on them. "Well, about time you showed up, the three divine." Alexander was first to fight, he died quickly under Danya's blade and fire. "You sned the youngest and most inexperince of you three to defeat me first, pathetic." Raphale was next, Nerus cut him down like grass. Garielle looked on , her face was stone. "You are the strongest of the Spawn of Sarda we have ever faced...may the gods forbid you to ever breed amoungest one another...a royal and a high power..." Danya bit into gabrielle's shoulder and tore harshly, garielle fell with out a singal whimper. Danya looked up as the sky turned black and the farplane opened up to her and Nerus. "It's time, we are going to rule both heaven and hell."[/COLOR]

Ali sat next to Matt on a metal table, both wer tolerateing the prodding and pokeing till one found a bruised rib, he tsked and reached for a light blue laser. "To much fro humans these days, all these fights, it's a shame that you are all we have." The nurse looked nervous as Matt shot her a look daring her to agree with the doctor who was healing Ali's rib from the outside. She looked up at him and for the first time Matt saw the fierceness of her ansectors emerge. Her eye were cold and dark and her face grim. "We might be humans, but unlike ogres or demons, Humans never give up." Her calm, collective demenor came back quickly leaving Matt and the doctor in shock. The nurse turned to the Doctor. "3 broken ribs and a fractured wrist sir, along with burns adn spirit energy scalds along his arms." The doctor nodded and finished with Ali, the nurse switched him places and began to give Alit shots to counter te energy poision that she and Matt had a threat to accumulate from the amount they had both been exsposed to. "Was it to much for you Grave?" Matt turned and rolled his eyes. "Urameshi, I thought you weren't due back till morning." "Thank Hiei, he gotr us herepretty quick." The short demon walked past, his arm was wrapped in a white bandage, the tall red haired Kurama behind him. "I only did it to shut you up detective, you were getting on my nerves." Kurama chuckled as the two began to argue. "We heard that the girl was taken? Do you know where to?" Matt shook his head as he watched Yuske and Hiei wearily. "Still do not trust others Grave? That will have to change soon enough, one cannot be a good friend, let alone leader if he does not trust others." Kurama follwed Hiei and Yuske as they left. The doctor finally let them go. Standig next to Botan infront of a portal she handed them gadgets. "This is if you get seperated, you can locate each other, seems that the older brohter killed the younger not long ago so you only have the elder and he seems to be the strongest so do becareful. Everything else I'll explain when we get there." The nodded and followed her through.

[COLOR=RoyalBlue]The white light that seemd to radiate around the back of Ku made her stop. "You are not to leave unless you have permission young one, please stay calm with the others your age, they are not as wise or calm as us elders, you must stay her until the orders are passed down unto us. This is a important mission and I would hope one would not try to indanger it. Please have patience little one, we Divine are working at a pace that is quickest for us." Gabrielle smiled smiled gently at the younger angel and inclined her head. "I am Gabrielle, I have not visited you, and this is the first time I havw had the pleasure of meeting you. Again I beg you do not descend until the haven goes as well, the Sarda are growing in stength and I fear that one as a level as you would be killed before she had a chance to retaliate, and I insult you not little one." Again Gabrielle smiled and looked down at her. "Have pateince and all will happen as it should." Gabrielle was gone as quickly as she came and left Lu standign there looking confused.[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]Danya looked back at Nerus and felt the skin on her back and neck prickle, she came upon a stone with blood splattered and dry against it. "Here, I'll go with you." "Your father seems insolant." "I claim not as my father Nerus." Her voice was more chilling then his. She took him to the lowest level and looked up at her father, he laughed crulely as he inspected Nerus. "Another Sarda spawn? You know how to find your play toys do you not daughter?" She growled and looked away from him, her fangs growing with her anger at him. "Does he fit your inspection?" "Not as well as I would have liked but he is powerful, that I do like Danya, you chose well with this one." She turned and began to walk away when she felt her fathers claws rake her back, letting out a roar she spun on him. "I was not finished. You will face me till I am through talking." She threw a wave of fire at hima nd growled as he forced he rt a a bow, her face flushed in embaressment as she was forced to his will infromt of Nerus who only looked on with a smug smirk. Danya growled louder and felt the essance fo her fahter for his life's vein and clamped on it. He yelled in horror as Danya fed from him, and grew in strength. Hours later sh stood infront of her father's dead body, Nerus beside her laughing. "I believe I am the ruler of hell at this moment, I say you pass the test Nerus, take as many demons of whatever level you wish and ascend to earth. Do what you wish, I will call upon you when it is time to attack to farplane." He looked at her and walked away. She looked at herself in the black water by her feet, her skin now a darkened brown, her hari a fire red, her eyes, now wicked yellow and fierce, two small horns were just visible through her hair. She was a princess no longer, she was the Queen, and her first act, destructiion.[/COLOR] OCC: ALL angels need to be IN the farplane by tomarrow!
