IC: Everything was blurry as her eyes opened, she felt around her for some support and found it with the trunk of a tree. Using a branch Grace lifted her self up off the ground with small grunt. Her side was still slight agony. [I]Its going to scar...[/I]

Her eye sight returning she looked around to find herself in a forest of some sort. Stepping out from the underbrush she stumbled and tripped over a tree root sending her crashing down into a hard rough surface. Looking underneath her self she was sitting on some sort of hard, gritty gray surface.

Jumping upwards immediately and looking around, she realized she wasn?t in a forest. It was some sort of woodlands grassy area with a large path running through the centre.

In the middle of a grove in front of her stood a large fountain of water. Walking over to the fountain she sat by its edge and looked into the base of it. Shiny objects were scattered all over the bottom, reaching in and picking one up she examined it. The piece of metal looked like button, [I]A tribute of some sort perhaps?[/I] Grace thought as she tossed the metal object back into the fountain. No soul was around this place at the current time.

Cupping her hands she scoped up some water and splashed it on her face. Seeing the watery fountain reminded her of Emillio and the state she last saw him in. [I]I hope he?s ok, I should go looking for the other?[/I] Graces train of thought was interrupted by a loud rumbling noise she looked skywards through the trees and saw a massive flying beast of an object.

Whatever it was it made an exceedingly loud noise and interrupted the natural wind flow. Grace didn?t like the wind wherever this new place was; it felt strange, unwelcoming and very unclean.

Looking down slightly at the trees she saw a strange winged creature on a branch, it was exceedingly small. It jumped about and chirped almost nervously in manor. Grace watched the bird fly away and a thought crossed her mind?.[COLOR=RoyalBlue] ?I wonder if?? [/COLOR]

Emilios eyes slowly opend, it was dark where he was now, but he could see light coming in through the crack under a near by door. He could here feet clapping as they walked by. What had they done to him? Why was he so numb, he wasn't even aware fo his own motions anymore.

He looked about the dark room as his eyes adjusted to the dark surroundings of the room. He looked to see if his belongings were there with him. He couldn't see them if they were, and he soon becamea aware of the fact that he was completely nude. Why had they taken his clothes off? This was something he was unfamiliar with. They hadn't seemed to have tortured him, but they may have only been waiting for him to regain consiouness, he was going to need to stay on his toes.

He looked to his right and saw his clothes laid out on a chair and his jug of water just to the left of that. He tried to sit up but found he still lacked the strength needed to move from that spot.

He heard a click and the door to the room swung open and young woman walked through. She fliped a small lever on the wall and the room shone bright with a white light. Everything about this room was white, even the floor which shone like as if it were made of pearl. Her expression seemed quite pleased "Your already awake. That's good, you musn't have been as hurt as you first appeared."

She walked to his bed and sat in the chair to his left and looked him over "Do you remeber who did this to you?"

Emilio was unsure of what to say, she seemed like she was innocent enough, but she was dressed very oddly. Emilio spoke "What are you?"

She smiled a bit to him "I'm a nurse sir, your at the north county hospital. They found you in the street with blood all over you."

Emilio thought on it for a moment. The last thing he rememberd was failing to kill the elder, but then there was that strange breeze of air, and the blast. What had happend to him? Where were the others? He looked to the woman "Did they find anyone else with me?"

She shook her head "No, you were alone. Was there someone else with you?"

Emilio didn't want to tell her since she might not be all she seemed "No, I was just curious."

He tried to sit again the woman quickly stopped him "Please stay settled sir, the morphine has not worn off yet, you should try and rest til your wounds have had time to heal."

He then felt along his chest. His wounds had been sown shut, yet another practice he wasn't familiar with. Normally they would simply apply a bandage and pressure, but why was he sown up like a torn garment. The woman then put the back of her hand on his forehead "No temprature, you should be fine in a few days sir."

She turned and left the room, turning the lights off as she left. Emilio was more confused now then before, what did these people hope to gain by doing this? Were they trying to help him, or did they want something else.

[COLOR=DarkOrchid]"Well, it was nice meeting you..."[/COLOR] The strange group turned and left rather hastily after Achilles' statement. They went back to whatever it was they were doing with mumbles of 'weirdo' and 'freak'. Chrys feigned a pleasant, yet lost smile until she was sure it was 'safe' after the polite Goodbyes. Strange place. Strange inhabitants.

She finally took notice of how Achilles was dressed. [COLOR=DarkOrchid]"What are you wearing?" [/COLOR] He shrugged his shoulders a little pointing out that it seemed to fit in with the rest of the surroundings. The fire demon got the point, and looked down at her tattered evening dress covered in old blood. Whatever, that could be dealt with later.

As the two walked looking for the others, Chrys spotted some sort of open area that seemed out of place around much of the large, reflective, and dull colored buildings that were behind it. Thinking she might have saw somebody through the momentary break in the people walking the streets. Maybe it was one of their friends?her insides gained an extra flutter of hope thinking about the possibility she'd run into Gale soon. Don't get her wrong, she'd still be just as happy coming across any of the others. With an excited 'I think I saw some one', she took off at a sprint down the street. Smart enough to know NOT to fly.

Achilles just laughed to himself a little before following after her. To think Chrys still could act as such. Almost there, he had to grab her arm and pull her back onto the corner before she got hit by one of the many moving vehicles. It stopped short with a loud, annoying BEEP, followed by some very vulgar language that couldn't even be heard clearly over the din of the rest of the traffic. [COLOR=DarkOrchid]"Watch yourself."[/COLOR]

Chrys grinned cheezily, very embarrassed at her brash stupidity.[COLOR=DarkOrchid] "Heh?oops? Sorry, Big Brother. I'll be more careful,"[/COLOR] she said half in jest. There was another break in the crowd, and the fire demon pointed toward a fountain in the middle of the patch of green. [COLOR=DarkOrchid]"I think it's Grace."[/COLOR]

[Lionheart]

[SIZE=1] Gale landed on the bench, breathing and cursing at the same time. It has been hours of searching this damn city, and with no luck. If the city wasn't so damn huge! He stopped his worrying and slightly turned to find a old woman sitting next to him. She smiled as she threw crums of food on the ground. Like magic, birds flew in and seized the food.

[B] "My my, child. Where on earth did you get cuts like that?"[/B] she asked as she saw the blood and scatches on his body. Everywhere he went, people were shock to see him covered in blood. It was no big deal, until he felt like he was going to faint.

[B]"No big deal. I was in a middle with a fight with the elven elder." [/B] He answered as the woman smiled. It was something his mother gave him when he made up a story. Did she thought he was crazy?
[B]
"Sounds nice, young man."[/B]

[B]"Yeah, got to run."[/B] He grinned uneasily and waved goodbye. That old lady scared him to death. She was really freaky and the way she smiled at him. Then he stopped in his tracks. The birds, they were flying away. He turned halfway to get taclked from behind. The old woman grabbed her face and ripped it off like a mask.
[B]
"I'm a undercover police officer and you my friend, are under arrest for Mr. Samuel Hill Gumby."[/B] Gale was so confused at that point. This old lady was really a man and now had a gun to his head. This world was so weird. By focusing on the crisis, he pushed off the officer before he could react with his gun. Gale used his speed to wimp out his sword, knocking the gun away. The officer showed up his hands, high in the air. Gale looked around and sped off behind him as the man talked into his small black machine.[/SIZE]

[Disenchanted]

[SIZE=1]Grace sat by the fountain deep in thought. This new world was mildly depressing, lookeing up to the sky once more she took in a deep breath and let out a sustained sigh.

Observing the blue mass above she heard person off to her left somewhere yell at something. Ignoring the yelling she continued to look upwards as it became closer, she couldn't hear exactly what was being shouted.

Achilles and Chrys were virtually on top of Grace before she botherd to look down and take notice of what was going on around her. Chrys and Archilles stood in fount of Grace, Chrys had her hands on her hips.

[B][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]"I've been yelling at you for ages"[/COLOR][/B] Grace looked at her and then at Archilles.
[B][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]"What in fujin are you wearing?" [/COLOR][/B]Archilles shruged.
[B][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]"Nice to see you too" [/COLOR][/B]An appolagetic look washed across Grace's face and she scratched her head.
[B][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]" I was thinking..."[/COLOR][/B]
[B][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]"you'll have plently of time to do that later, we still have everyone else to find" [/COLOR][/B]Chrys added as she began to walk back to the street side.
[B][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]"Where the hell are we?" [/COLOR][/B]Grace watched the road as the strange mechanical things speed past.
[B][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]"We were going to ask you the same question"[/COLOR][/B]

The three walked down the buisy street and stared at anything un-usuall.
[B][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]"Hey! come and look at this" [/COLOR][/B]Grace shouted back to the other two who were a few meters behind her. "that guy looks familiar..."
[B][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]"Shut up and listen[/COLOR][/B]" Archilles orderd, everyone fell silent and watched the screen of the device. A woman seated behind a desk was speeking looking straight at the screen.
[B][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]".... for the head lines. Police have identified a key suspect in a running investigation. The public is advised to stay away from the man."[/COLOR][/B] A picture of a male flashed on screen.[B][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]"the suspect is armed with a sword, caution is advised in appraching the man. He was last located in the beach side district. If anyone has seen the suspect they are advised to ring the police on..."[/COLOR][/B]Chrys interrupted the strange woman.

[B][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]"thats Gale!"[/COLOR][/B]Grace looked at the picure up close...she was right. Archillies nodded in agreement.[B][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]"we have to find him!" [/COLOR][/B]Grace interrupped the excited Chrys.
[B][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]" what about everyone else?"
"Shut up.." [/COLOR][/B]The two females turned to Archillies and then at the screen. The woman spoke of a man who was taken to hosipital with bad wounds but in a stable condition and anyone that had info to tell the police. The imiage of the woman was replaced with footage of explosions, guns and machines that resembled the ones Grace saw ealier. A voice spoke of a war in a country they had never head of before.

[B][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]"seems more is going on than we thought." [/COLOR][/B]
Archilles stated looking at the images.
[B][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]"what do we do now then?"[/COLOR][/B]replied an anxious chrys.[/SIZE]

His body was heavy, but Emilio was finally able to move again. He scrambled off the bed and landed on hands and knees on the floor. Whatever they had given him was still making his body numb and he couldn't even feel where he was anymore. He moved his hands, dragging across the white shiny floor, slowly making it's way toward his affects.

He could still hear people outside going about there business. They would surely send someone to check on him soon, he had to hurry out of this place. He set his hands to the edge of the bed and pulled himself up, his legs felt like they were soggy bread. He had a hard time standing, but decided he could manage. He started to dress himself, when he heard someone just beyond the door. The knob giggled only once then came open.

A man in a white coat stood in the doorway, he had a look of shock on his face. The man called out "Nurse, the patient is up."

The woman from earlier then came in and ran over to Emilio. This was it, they were going to take him for interogation, he was sure of it. That man must have been the interogator. She tried to grab his arm and he flung her off him and backed to the window. The man then called out for guards. Two large hulking men came in the room and jumped at Emilio to hold him down. The continued to shout "The patient has become delirious. Restrain him quickly."

Emilio felt a sudden stabbing pain in his right shoulder as he struggled with the two men. He looked to see a small needle in his shoulder as a strange liquid was pumped into his arm. Emilio felt the twing of the presense of water. He called it up and a unit on the wall burst free and the room quickly flooded out. The three men and the woman after him had been washed out. Emilio then turned to the window and jumped out. He fell for four storied before landing on a thick black stone coverded in yellow and white markings.

He could still hear people shouting and calling for help back up in the room he was in. He looking around and saw a maze of monolithic structures of identical design. He stood for a moment trapped in awe, til he heard someone coing after him. He took to running now, not even bothering to see which one of them had decided to chase him. He could feel the pull under the black rock slab, that seemed to stretch on forever. He tried to pull more to himself, and as he did metal lids from the ground burst with a foul stench. The water was impure, it was almost nauseating.

He had no other recourse however, he flooded the path and stopped all persuers. it was at this time he took notice of the metal carriages all over the road. They moved without horses, or someone ot pull them. What kind of dark magic were they using? Whatever it was, it left a fould stench in the air. This whole world reaked of evil, even the air and water felt tainted to an unimaginable level.

He heard voices from nowhere, saw images of people who werent' really there. Could he be going insane? It was at this time he started to feel heavy again. He stumbled a bit and eventually returned to a crawl. It was at this time he heard a voice call to him. It was a voice that knew his name. It was one he recognized. As he began to slip into unconsiousness, he saw the three figures running to him. He saw the face of only one. It was Grace.
