[I]Dante slips through the darkness of the city. He leaps onto the top of a burnt out Police Car. As he stands watching the profound and non-intelligent creatures drag their sorry and diseased bodies around nibbling and chewing on anything that moves. There is a huge grouping of them now, Zombies and Lickers alike. As he sees a Licker sniff the air and scurry along the side of a building, he jumps from the smoking and twisted frame of the motor vehicle and jumped into an ally. He slouches, his back against the old, wet, mossy wall. He turns to see a face a few inches from his! Quickly the face jumps back, for there is the tip of Alastor pointed into his cheek. The person jumps back and is engulfed into the thick over coat of black skyline and mist. As Dante stands there is a small fixture of a body curled in the phetus position.[/I]

Dante: OI! Who are you!?!

???: I am sorry, just DONTKILL ME!

Dante: O_o Calm down, who are you?

???: I am only a worker from the Umbrella Corp.

Dante: :) Oh you are, are you? :D

???: Yes, my name is Dr Welfurd, if you must obtain information, I have all you need, I hate them damn corparals! They have forced me to stay in hiding for wekks now, homeless and fearful of these disgusting creatures.

Dante: Yes, what the hell has been going on inbetween the Umbrella walls?

Dr Welfurd: Well as usual I went to my work, the T Virus...

Dante: *buts in* Is that what is making all of them people, flesh eating creatures? *shudder*

Dr Welfurd: Yes, anyway. As we had created an Anti-Virus also there was a lot of loose time, so I set to work on a new little project, fully out of my curiosity. As the T Virus sends electrical signals to the brain to spark only the most simplistic need, I decided mabey I can play aroudn with this. I created a mask, not just any mask. This mask when worn can change your bodies image to any living, or not pliving in this case, eye in the world, it represents you as, one of them. I created a generater big enough to keep a signal of all of Raccon City, so if you wear it anywere in the city, you can be represented as one of them. I was so pleased it worked. I planted the generater deep under ground, no one can get at it. It is the main reason I have lasted this long.

Dante: Sounds great, but how the HELL did u make it out of the Corp?

Dr Welfurd: Well...

**Flashback**

"My friend, Dr Bloomersfeild, is the Saftey Superintendint. He always informs me a day or two before there is to be a Drill, so I don't have to panic as such. But that time, he didn't so when it went off,I knew it was for real. There was no way I was leaving my Mask behind, that was the only thing I grabbed and ran. Everyone was like "Calm down Welfurd" I told them, that it was for real, a few believed and jogged, most didn't. I was sprinting by now and got outside. I walked to the shop and then walked back to meet my friends and to see if the "clean up" team, as I call them, has arived yet. When I got back everyone was dead!"

Dante: I see. Well I am here to stop all of this, and I'll try to get this Anti-Virus as qucikly as possible.

Dr Welfurd: You are very brave.

[I]As soon as he had finished a Licker had jumped ontop of The Dr's head. It dug straight into his brain and feasted. I grabbed the Mask then dropped money at the Dr's feet, as a mark of respect.[/I]

Dante: Hey Ugly!!! Come and get me!

[I]As I stood with my sword infront of me. The Licker pounced. I ran up the corner of the wall and slashed it's tongue clean from his mouth. It skreeched in pain and was more angry. It scuttled towards me as I penetrated my sword through its head it fell to the ground and lay in a huge, decomposed pile of goo. As I wiped my sword clean, I walked out to the misty streets in search for Survivors and the Anti-Virus.[/I]

[Domon]

[i] Tidus could feel anger coursing through his veins, he had allowed someone to be killed. He looked at Sephiroth, this man was the one who almost destroyed an entire planet?? This man was a brutal heartless killer?? No.. This man had a heart. This man cared for his friend. This man wasn't evil, he had attoned for his crimes and this was his reward??? One of his friends had been killed!!! What kind of reward was that??? Tidus could feeel a terrible sorrow for this man. He finally began to speak to the man.[/i]

Tidus: He Sephiroth..I'm sorry about your friend dying.. Really i'm truly sorry.

Sephiroth: .....

Tidus: Hello?? Any one home?? Yuhoo... You gonna ..

Yuna: Tidus!! Let the man be!! Come on everyone give Sephiroth, Megan, and the deceased some time alone please..

[i] Everyone walked out of the morgue out onto the bridge and Tidus stuck up another conversation with Vincent.[/i]

Tidus: See.. I told you he wasn't some maniac.. So is Sephiroth and this Cloud, are they enemies???

[i] Vincent began the entire story about his journey with cloud and by the time he was finished the Airship had arrived in Midgar and Tidus was begining to wonder if bringing Sephiroth to Midgar with them was a good idea. If they did meet Cloud and Sephiroth and him tried to duke it out Tidus would try his best to keep them from starting a blood bath.[/i]

Pac Man: Take care Rick please succeeds in your mission.

Rick Hunter: Don't worry I will, and if I can I shall return to save your butt again. Catch you later!

Rick Hunter drives off into the darkness, his destination the coast of the Mushroom Kingdom to do battle with the Zentradi Armada once more.

*Well, so far TJ had been saved while Earl stood there with a shotgun liking the sense of shinyness, the posse watched as Rick Hunter stormed through the broken window of what the 'Hunter' had came through.*


[COLOR=tomato]TJ: Argh Jesus. What are we gonna do now?[/COLOR]
[COLOR=tomato]Earl: Hmm, well we cant really do anything in this damned city seeing as Chris needs this antidote, I suggest maybe we should go down to the corporation, get the antidote and maybe back-up Rick in sometime.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=seagreen]Chris: Well in this corridor, there is an emergency door that leads to the lab, we'll have to stay together but we could make it.[/COLOR]
[COLOR=darkblue]Pac-Man: Hmm let me just set something.[/COLOR]

*Pac-Man shuffled in his pockets and pulled out a watch of some sort, then beeping followed*

[COLOR=darkblue]Pac-Man: And the approximate time will leave us with......... *Mumble mumble* 21 MINUTES! ARGH[/COLOR]
[COLOR=seagreen]Chris: I'm endangering you, while you'll need me to escape, lets get down there and now![/COLOR]
[COLOR=blue]Megaman: Well I'll just blast the door open :D[/COLOR]

*Megaman fixed his position in front of the door, raised his arm and then a blindening flash came about the room*

[COLOR=tomato]TJ and Earl: That was COOOOOOOOOOOOOL![/COLOR]

*With that, the party scaled down the stairs, in which seemed like an eternity. Now they were in a circular room of what read, 'Basin'.*

[COLOR=seagreen]Chris: OK, we're gonna do this fast, TJ throw me that tube with the green liquid in.[/COLOR]
[COLOR=tomato]TJ: Check[/COLOR]
[COLOR=seagreen]Chris: Now Dot and Pacman. Get the syringe and inject it into me.[/COLOR]
Both: Rightioh

*Dot sponged the area of the wound and both injected the liquid into Chris*

[COLOR=seagreen]Chris: Ugh...........[/COLOR]
-----
What will happen to Chris? Will he survive? We'll let faith and hope decide...

[Shinobi]

[I]Dante sneaks by most of the zombies and Lickers, but the number is overwhelming and he resorts to the mask.[/I]

Dante: Well, Here I go.

[I]He is formed into a zombie and runs as fast as he can, unfortunately went he tried to run, his leg snapped in 2. With a grunt he pulls it off, and his body forms back to his original. As he ponders, he congers up an idea. He sticks his tongue out and then put on the mask, and instead of a zombie, he is a licker! As he scurries up a wall he runs past a huge grouping of zombies and fellow lickers, as he runs buy he thinks (that?s what he thinks) to himself ?Stupid Bast*rds? But he actually said it aloud, in their own language, they all stared at him and he just scurried away. As he ran closer and closer to the biggest group of all, he noticed that he was near the Umbrella Corp. He went inside and searched the place for sometime, and then he heard a huge Blast! His Licker senses sent him to a door that had been blown apart! When he ran in, he was shot at several times, quickly he pulled off the mask landing flat on his face.[/I]

Dante: Don?t Shoot!!!

Blue Can Guy: Who are you!?

Dante: I am Dante, a supernatural private detective, do you not recognise me?

Big Yellow Ball: Oh you were the guy out of Devil May Cry, correct?

Dante: Yes, are you not Pac-Man?

Pac-Man: Finally!! Someone recognises my superstar looks!

[I]Everyone is introduced and Dante explains why he is here and how he changed from a Licker to a human. He told them of how he wants to collect as much Anti-Virus as possible and try and disperse it and cure the T Virus. They started chatting until Pac-Man looked at his watch.[/I]

Pac-Man: Um, Guys?RUN!!!

[Mitch]

[color=red][i]

Chris fell onto the floor, a loud crash ringing in everyones ears as he did. It seemed like Chris was going to make it. They all hoped so. After fifteen minutes, Chris regained consciousness. He slowly stood up, still grasping his injured arm.

[b]Chris:[/b] Looks like I made it, guys. We sure as hell got lucky...

The group glares at Chris, a look of relief replacing the tension.

[b]Pac-Man:[/b] Well, we should get going. We need to find out what's going on here.

[b]Megaman X:[/b] All right then, on we go.

[b] TJ and Earl:[/b] Alrighty dudes, lez move on!

[/color][/i]

[Zidargh]

[COLOR=darkblue]*Well TJ had been thinking to himself as usual, '' Well a tall guy's just joined our party, and he has some pretty cool gear but I dunno if I can trust him. I mean I've got Megaman, Dot, Pac-Man, Earl and Chris, but Chris is out of commision. I hope Chris'll be OK as we all plan to help Rick Hunter, but we'll just have to see how it goes.[/COLOR]

Step Step Step

[COLOR=darkblue]Hmm, I miss Funkotron. I mean our new buddies are cool an' all but we need FUNK! My boombox is broken thanks to Earl, and I'm bored as the shotgun keeps sinking into my jelly stuff. Hey I didnt like Funko Biology OK?[/COLOR]

Mumbling Mumbling

[COLOR=darkblue]Chris's arm seems to have stopped bleeding and we're rearing to and exit. Bless his little cotton socks, Pac-Man keeps staring at Dot, are they married? Dunno but I hope they make lots of lil Paccman's and Dotties, then Earl and I could teach 'em how to FUNK! :D Well I better make some conversation as they keep staring at my medallion[/COLOR]

[COLOR=crimson]TJ: *Coughs* Yo.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=darkblue]''Man I'm cool'' [/COLOR]

Dante: Well I've been wandering the streets in search of some friendly people or aliens or roundish things, but first priority is to get out of here.
[COLOR=crimson]Earl: Yeah we gathered that man. But the thing is, we've gotta protect Chris he's pretty weak right now[/COLOR]
[COLOR=green]Chris: ... I'm OK, heh.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=darkblue]*Everyone made a gasp as Chris stood up twisting his hand guns*[/COLOR]
[COLOR=blue]Megaman: Hey, its been a long time.[/COLOR]
[COLOR=tomato]Dot: Indeed[/COLOR]
[COLOR=firebrick]Pac-Man: Yeah, that's a relief! *Phew*[/COLOR]
[COLOR=crimson]Earl: Erm.... boo.[/COLOR]

*Earl stared at TJ raising his eyebrows as TJ began to scratch his cap*

[COLOR=crimson]TJ: Anyway, I keep hearing moaning and its getting louder so I think we should head for the Racoon City Station of the Monorail[/COLOR]
All: Amen to that!

*With that, TJ and Earl ran in lead down the central park while Dante picked up Dot*

[COLOR=firebrick]Pac-Man: GET OFF HER NOW![/COLOR]
[COLOR=crimson]TJ: Do it[/COLOR] * Said TJ to Dante threateningly*
Dante: Jeez, I was trying to help...

[COLOR=green]Chris: Get down![/COLOR]

*With that, the party immediately took cover in TJ and Earl's entrance spot and glared at the station as it started to collapse and then explode*

[COLOR=firebrick]Pac-Man: Good thing I have my Solar Powered Sensor Beam Watch mixed with Dot's Pellet 9000.[/COLOR]
[COLOR=tomato]Dot: You said it was for the hexagon chief back at home[/COLOR]

[COLOR=darkblue]*Pac-Man stood up with a cheeky smile and then lead the party out of the rubble towards the station. Finally they were going to try and escape on a High-Tech Monorail, thought TJ. Hey he's not the damned narrator!*[/COLOR]

[Muse]

I'm sorry for Inturuptting,But...Where is Ash?I've been Very Busy(Making New RPGs and I'm in about Five of them,inclusing this one)So can someone fill me in?Thanks:D

[Shy]

[i]Through the darkness, obscured by fog, we were barely able to see the large piles of rubble strewn throughout. It looked like part of the building had collapsed, on the ground I could see a small sign that was buried beneath the rocks. I picked it up:[/i]

[color=green][b]Raccoon City Monorail[/b]
Train A to Onett: Cancelled Due to Epidemic of T-Virus
Underwater Train B to Pac Village: 7:00 am
Train C to Macross City: Cancelled due to Epidemic of T-virus[/color]

[i]After I read the sign I realized that we had no hope of taking a train out of Raccoon City. The rest of the group did not fully understand, so I had to explain it to them.[/i]

[color=darkblue]"Guys, I think we are in trouble. We can't take a train out of Raccoon City."[/color]
[color=tomato]"No way. You must be trippin' Pac-Man."[/color]
[color=sienna]"Yes, why do you say that?"[/color]
[color=darkblue]"It is this sign. All trains out of this city have been cancelled because of the T-Virus epidemic."[/color]
[i]I handed Dante the sign, and he carefully read it.[/i]
[color=sienna]"I see, they have cancelled the trains to Onett and Macross City. But couldn't we take the train to Pac Village, isn't that how you got here? By the train..[/color]
[color=darkblue]"No. The train is no longer functional."[/color]
[color=green]"Why not?"[/color]
[color=darkblue]"Rick Hunter destroyed it."[/color]
[color=tomato]"...whoa. Rick has some issues don't he?"[/color]
[color=darkblue]"No, he just likes to blow things up.[/color]
[color=sienna]"What do we do now? How can we leave if the trains are not here?"[/color]
[color=red]"Why don't we just walk out of Raccoon City."[/color]

[i]There was a brief pause due to the fact that Megaman had said the most logical thing. Dot took a few steps away from me.[/i]

[color=darkblue]"What's wrong Dot? Aren't you glad that we are going to be able to leave this awful place?"
"No, not at all. Your yellow head must be full of air, because you have forgotten the whole reason why we are here in the first place!"[/color]
[i]Megaman whispered to Toejam[/i][color=red]"Are women always this upset about everything?"[/color]
[color=sienna]"Yup."[/color]
[color=darkblue]"You forgot about my father. How are we going to ifnd my father in Raccoon City if we leave!?"
"Heh, good point. Maybe we should split up, whoever wants to stay and help us and whoever wants to leave."[/color]

[Boba Fett]

[Zidargh]

* Well the party had been in deep thought after Pac-Man's decision to make that comment. But TJ and Earl knew what to do straight away, they wanted lil Pac-Man's and Dotties of course *

[COLOR=crimson]TJ and Earl: Yo man, just 'cause we're a bit more funkier, doesnt mean we're not loyal. We've been through alot together, and we're helping you and Dot big time. FUNKY STYLE![/COLOR]

* Everyone took a minute to stare at TJ in particular because Earl told them how TJ thinks aloud and they know why he wants to stick with them *

[COLOR=crimson]TJ: WHAT!?[/COLOR]
[COLOR=darkblue]Pac-Man: Well thankyou TJ, Earl. You two are pretty fun to have around. Besides we're pretty good friends arent we?[/COLOR]
[COLOR=crimson]TJ: Year............................[/COLOR] *Earl interrupts*
[COLOR=crimson]Earl: Yup buds for life[/COLOR]

[COLOR=darkred]Dot: Thanks guys[/COLOR]
[COLOR=crimson]TJ and Earl: Anytime[/COLOR]

*Pac-Man, Dot, TJ and Earl stared at the others for them to join them*

[COLOR=blue]Megaman: Well I'm with ya[/COLOR]
[COLOR=green]Chris: You need me[/COLOR]
-------------
Well I cannot realy decide for other characters but I'm sticking with you. Who will stay and who will leave?

[Shinobi]

[i]As Dante thinks hard and long on this, he decides to help (for a short while anyway[/i]

Dante: Well, I'll help, to show you all that I'm not an enemy, honest, so i shall join you, i also have a Scary Mask, that can get us out of sticky situations. I may, however have to leave you all later on, for i do have some things i must accomplish myself.

[i]Dante walks over to the side of of TJ and Earl, Dot and Pac. He walks over taking out Alastor and leaning on it.[/i]

Pac: Hey, i apprectiate that.

*to himself* "Hmm, this guy seems okay, still, I gotta watch him though."

[Domon]

[i] Tidus had been wondering what the response of Sephiroth's return to Midgar would be. It wasn't pretty..As soon as the Airship landed Tidus saw the man Cloud standing there with two women. Vincent and the other two looked mortified..[/i]

Tidus: Hey is the one in the pink Aries??

Vincent: Yes, but how?? *thinking out loud* Maybe the life stream brought her back to life..

[i] As soon as the hatch and walkway were open and down the party stepped out and Tidus greeted Cloud and when Sephiroth stepped out Cloud pulled out his massive sword and pushed Tidus away and charged at Sephiroth, but Sephiroth looked at him and calmly drew his sword but before either one of them could come to blows Kimahri got between them and grabbed Cloud by the front of his shirt and held him back while Tidus tried to keep them from killing each other.[/i]

Cloud: Why are YOU back???!!! I thought I killed YOU!!

[i] Sephiroth just glared and walked on by.[/i]

[starlight]

[i]The crewmember showed her a room and gave her the key before leaving. She opened the door and walked inside to take a look. It was a nice brightly room. There was a single bed on the far wall. That was where she placed the small backpack and the sneaky parasol she had brought along with her. She didnt want to unpack, she had no clue how long she was going to be onboard. She went over to her door and opened it, she took out her small notepad and wrote down her room number then walked out into the corridor and locked her door.[/i]

Peach: This ship is huge! I hope I can find my way back here again.

[i]She walked up a flight of stairs to the deck above. She went to the guard rail and looked down at the ocean that seemed so far below her. She looked out to ther horizon and kind of zoned out. She was snapped out of her deep thought by two people nearby.[/i]

Rose: I'm flying Jack! I'm flying!

Peach: Hey do you mind?

Jack: Sorry

[i] Before Peach could say any more the couple just vanished into thin air.[/i]

Peach:... Ok thats the last time I watch Titanic before going on any kind of ship!

[Domon]

[i] After Cloud had blown off some steam and Aries was done making sure that Kimahri was with her Tidus finally explained the situation to Aries, Tifa, and Cloud.[/i]

Cloud: So let me get this straight.. Sephiroth is now a good guy???

Tidus: I guess you could say that, if you consider him a murderer then he is but you should give him a second chance and settle your differences but do not fight each other!!!

Cloud: Alright. But, if he starts any funny buisness then it lights out AGAIN!!!

Aries: Oh shush!! I won't let him try to kill me this time..Anyways there was a girl following him around so i don't think he would kill me if he didn't kill her either so eh...

Tidus: Okay now to the lounge to get this whole situation figured out.

Cloud: And what would that be??

Tidus: Why all of our worlds have combined and why there is a growing evil in certain places.. We may need Sephiroth to join us and work with us, thats why i want you and Aries to settle your qualms with him BUT DON'T FIGHT!!! Otherwise i'll get between it and you sure as hell don't want that!! So off we go to the lounge.

[GinnyLyn]

ok, now that I know I can still post here, I'm gonna again--even though my computer is AWOL.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Auron groaned as he struggled to his many clawed feet. The shackles were still in place. They rattled in a dull, metallic manner as he pulled away from the metal mushroom man walking towards him, holding a glittering needle.
Auron hissed in a warning manner, clenching his curved beak; he swiped out with his lethal talons, but they raked across the midget's coat without leaving a scratch.
The sharp needle quickly tore past the feathery neck fur into Auron's skin; the what once was human and now was Griffon roared and reared back, carrying the metal man with him. Once the liquid inside completely vanished, the mushroom man clanged harmlessly to the floor, taking the empty needle with him.
Auron rubbed at the spot, and hissed again. He could hear Luigi's...ah, the Don's voice, coming from the viewing balcony above his prison pit.
[color=green]"Ah, good'a. You have now'a been infected with a form of'a the T virus. We like'a to call it the F virus...stands'a for feral. You will soon'a go crazy...hee hee hee...crazy, she is not so bad when'a you've been with her as'a long as I have."[/color]
[color=purple][i]"You're insane..."[/i][/color] Auron snarled.
[color=green]"I do not'a suffer from insanity...I enjoy'a every minute of it!"[/color] The Don burst into hysterical laughter and stalked off.
Below, Auron's eyes were slowly growing bloodshot. The Don's laughter grated on his nerves, and he was straining against the shackles that bound him to get at the Don. The shackles were all that were saving the Don at this moment...

[The Vampire: Ed]

After arriving in Midgar, and narrowly escaping a reunion battle between Cloud and Sephiroth. They updated them on the whole story, everything that happened to Sephiroth and the story behind his female companion. They began to make their way to the lounge, but Sephiroth stops then turns back looking at the airship. Megan followed closely behind almost bumps into Sephiroth, but stop in time. 'W-whats wrong?' Megan asked curiously.

'Megan, go with the others. I have something I must do first.' Sephiroth said as he started to make his way back towards the airship. 'Wait! What is it?' called Megan. Sephiroth just turned to look at Megan, then replied with an almost mournful tone 'Bury a friend. It's best you do not come.' Megan just nodded with a tear in her eyes, hugged Sephiroth, then ran to catch up with the others. Reentering the airship Sephiroth returned to retrieve Jim's body, after doing so he left the ship and proceeded towards a near by cemetery.

Upon reaching the cemetery Sephiroth kicked the gates open as he carried Jim's body in his arms, then made his way to an empty corner of the graveyard. Laying Jim down on the soggy grass, Sephiroth proceeds to the shed where the tools are kept. It was locked, but with a swipe of the Masamune the lock simply feel off. Opening the door he found a shovel, grabbing it he returned to Jim's side. Looking down at the ground Sephiroth broke the soil in a quick motion with the shovel, leaving the shovel planted firmly in the ground. Sephiroth took the time to remove his coat, and set the Masamune aside so that it would not slow him down.

As he started to dig again his mind filled with memories of Wesker killing Jim, his anger returned and his face turned red as he sped up. He threw dirt, and grass around madly losing himself in his work. Eventually he stopped, and looked around to see that he was standing in a seven foot deep hole. Sephiroth pulled himself up, and out of the hole slowly with the dirt staining his bare and pale flesh. As he stood up, he turned to look down in the hole then towards Jim's corpse. Suddenly, Sephiroth roared out in anger then reared back and threw the shovel as if it was a javelin. Hitting a nearby tree with the velocity that it flew at, the shovel immediately became lodged in it's trunk.

Sephiroth fell to his knees holding his head, and realizing just how it must have felt for those he caused grief to in the past. The mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, family and friends in general he must has caused to perish in the chaos he bestowed upon the world. Too himself he spoke with an angry, and sorrow filled tone 'I-I-I....WHY?! Is this my punishment? To return to the living world again with my human emotions returned to me? To feel sadness of another's passing? To be ashamed of what I've done? Am I just being taught a lesson for all the wrongs that I've committed. I now HATE Jenova with a passion for manipulating me......but I'm almost certain that I would welcome her back into my mind if only to silence these damn emotions inside.' Sephiroth pound the ground with a fist, and just looked down as rain began to fall.

Sephiroth's wing stretched out, and maneuvered itself above his head to cover him from the downfall. Looking up to the sky Sephiroth spoke out again 'No! I would rather suffer a painful death then to be a pawn again. I hate Cloud for sending me to my grave, but now I am more thankful then anything else. I have an obligation to fulfill, I must protect Megan and redeem myself by siding with those whom I once sought to kill. Jim, my friend, your death will not go unavenged. This Albert Wesker was only apart of this evil, and I made sure to end his miserable existence. I must search for the source of this evil, and destroy it to atone for my sins. I only hope it is not too late for me....'

Sephiroth's voice trailed off as he got back up, and walked over the grave then slowly began to lower Jim's body in. Sephiroth continued the rest of the burial as the rain poured down upon the earth.

At the lodge, Tifa's Bar, 7th Heaven......

Megan sat by the window staring out as the rain tapped against the roof, and rolled down the sides. With a sigh Megan looked around the room, Tifa was behind the counter handing drinks to the others. She looked back out through the window sighing again as she spoke to herself 'Sephy, where are you?'

Suddenly, Megan jumped as she felt someone touch her shoulder. Turning she found Aeris staring down at her with a cup of water in her other hand. 'Sorry, I didn't mean to startle you. I brought you a glass of water, you don't seem like a big 'drinker' to me.' Aeris said in a sweet manner. 'Thank you...' Megan said as she took the glass of water, and looked back out through the window.

'Hmm.....he must have changed a lot to have someone waiting for him like you are.' Aeris said. Megan just looked at her, then to the table as she swirled the water around a bit in her glass. 'I guess you're not in a speaking mood. I'll go away now.' Aeris said as she turned away, but Megan called her back 'Wait, Aeris, please sit.'

Aeris turned back, and sat down across from Megan at the table. Megan looked at the table tapping it nervously with her finger, then finally got the courage up to speak. 'S-so....is it true? Is it true about Sephy.....er I mean Sephiroth? Did he really kill you, and try to destroy all of humanity?' Aeris didn't have the heart to reply, so she just nodded as she broke eye contact.

'I can't believe it....it's just so strange. He was always gentle with me, and kind. He saved my life several times. It's just so hard to believe. He's just......so different then the way he's portrayed in these stories.' Megan said with unease in her voice as she leaned over a bit holding herself. 'I know how you must feel, and I understand how you could be confused. To be honest, I'm quite confused myself. I also kinda curious as to why you haven't question his murdering me, when I am sitting before you living and breathing.' Aeris says with a slight giggle.

Megan smiles a bit then replies 'Well, I've seen zombies walking the streets, strange monsters, a unique man who can survive falling from a building and other things such as being impaled with a rusty pipe. Not to mention the fact that he could cast some sort of magic. You know. I just kinda gave up on trying to figure out what's going on anymore.' Aeris laughed a bit, and replied 'I see. Sooo....what's the story behind this 'Sephy' thing?'

Megan and Aeris laughed out loud, and so they continued to talk....

[Heartless Me]

The beasts among the courtyard were easy to bypass, most of them were only created to harm the truely living so Alucard safely passed them bye, cutting down any hostile plant and animal life that may have come at him. Finally ariving a the portcullis and door to the the castle proper. He touched the portcullis and almost as if it were a key of sorts the metal bars lifted for him. As the bars lifted the door opened releasing the dank skunk smell of the dead blew into Alucards face and flooded his stomach. If he were fully alive he may have lost his lunch right there but being who and what he was he could have standed smells much worse than that.

Taking a step into the castle he is immediately brought down upon by several skeletons and zombies. His body kicked into overdrive again dodging and blockign attacks with his sword. His body turned and the sword swung out seperating a zombie's top half from the rest of it's body. A split second later he had two skeletons slashing at his back with their talon like bones... feeling the bite of cold bone dig into his flesh he grunted in pain mule kicking backwards landing the foot directly onto the skeletons midsection shattering the monster as a whole. He swung the sword again and it glowed slightly as it drew power from Alucarde's vampiric soul, the sword cutting through the zombies even though they were still several feet away, an arc of energy extending from the arcane blade. The last skeleton noticed that it was alone and shuffled off to another place. obviously it had some sort of intelligence.

With that taken care of he was free to explore the first layer of the castle. There were several rooms that were unlocked, within each were either a skeleton or a zombie which were dispatched easily for him. Within the first room he was able to forage a small bottle of water, most likely holy water he figured. He decided that he would keep this bottle and slid it into a potion slot on his belt. Working his was out of the last room when he left the door he fell through the floor and landed in a room of pure darkness.

???: Welcome to the Oubliette, where there is no esc....

The voice didn't even get a chance to finish it's sentance for his sword lashed out and cut deeply into something that squealed in rage and pain and fell to the ground with a thud. Alucard shook his head and dropped to one knee. After a moment of concentration he had lept up deep into the hole he fell down using his superior strength to climb out of the deep hole.

Stepping out of the hole he noticed something about himself. He was weakening and it was happening fast. He was fighting too much but he had to reach Dracula. He fought the denizens of the castle, Horrible undead, disgusting abominations, mutated carnivorous plants, and every other horror one could imagine until he was standing at the dormatory of the dark one himself.

[i] Tidus was sitting in Tifa's bar sipping on a cool drink she had called "SuperNova" it was quite the flavor burst, it tasted more like a fruit that used to grow in Zanarkand and it was being grown in the town of Besaid. But here the fruit was just a fruit and nothing else, it wasn't a rarity but anyways Tidus was drinking this when he saw Cloud getting realy edgy and so Tidus decieded to talk with this guy.[/i]

Tidus: So i guess you have been to the city where i live, haven't you??

Cloud: Huh? Oh yeah, its quite the city. Hey what is that sport i saw you playing???

Tidus: What?? Oh that was Blitzball. Your telling me that this massive city doesn't have a huge Blitzball Stadium??

Cloud: Nope. What is that guy doing?? Well i'm going to go see.

Megan: Don't! Don't interrupt him!!

Cloud: What do you mean by that??

Megan: If you must know than follow me but stay quiet and don't say anything. You four can come to. [i] Points to Aries, Tidus,Yuna, and Tifa.[/i]

[i] The party begins to walk towards a grave yard where they see Sephiroth covering a hole. Cloud asks Megan who is in there and Megan quickly explains and Tidus notices a perplexed look come over his face and then Tidus finally speaks up.[/i]

Tidus: This isn't the same guy you fought before, this is a changed man with emotions, a heart, and most of a soul. You should give him a second chance, what he did to you and your friends was horrible but he was a pawn and nothing else. Please forgive him and allow him to work with us cause i think we'll need everyone that is willing to help us.

Cloud: I guess you're right..

Aries: I can forgive him, he was only acting that way because Jenova made him. So yes I'll forgive him..

[i] Aries and Cloud stepped into the graveyard and walked over to Sephiroth and spoke to him telling him that they forgave him and that they would like for him to join them in their quest. Sephiroth agreed but he asked of only one favor, to let Megan come too. The party quickly agreed and they headed for the Airship not knowing where the next place to visit would be. The group was as follows: Tidus, Yuna, Lulu, Wakka, Sephiroth, Aries, Cloud, Vincent, Yuffie, Cid, and Tifa.
The Airship soon started its engines and they were off to their next destination: The Mushroom Kingdom.[/i]



(OOC: Is Zanarkand inhabitated in this RPG or is it still abaondoned???)

[Boba Fett]

[COLOR=deeppink][B]Madame Aroma[/B]: "I will have nachos, two Cesar salads, Dr. Toad's Many Flavors Ice Cream & Syrup and a glass of Mega Fruit exotic flavors milk."[/COLOR]

[COLOR=chocolate][B]Toad Waiter[/B]: "Ok, I have all your orders, but Madame, are you aware of how much your meal will cost?!?"[/COLOR]

[COLOR=deeppink][B]Madame Aroma[/B]: "Of course I am aware of how much my meal costs! How dare you suggest I would be so stupid as too..."[/COLOR]

[COLOR=chocolate][B]Toad Waiter[/B]: "I didn't mean to offend you my lady, my deepest apologies"[/COLOR]

[COLOR=deeppink][B]Madame Aroma[/B]: "Apology accepted, besides my handsome escort here will be paying, wont you Mario.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=red][B]Mario[/B]: "Er..., but you see that's an awful lot of coins to sp.."[/COLOR]

[COLOR=deeppink][B]Madame Aroma[/B]: "There, it's all settled. Now waiter could you please get our food?"[/COLOR]

[COLOR=green]The toad waiter scurries away and Link grins at Mario, who is looking [I]very[/I] annoyed with Madame Aroma.

Samus sits back in her wooden chair and looks around the room.

Most of the patrons are local toads, enjoying flasks of cheap milk and discussing the day's events. Here and there a waiter delivers drinks and food, but for the most part the inn is a sleepy place. In the far corner, in the very back of the inn are four travelers who Samus finds intriguing. They are all wearing long black traveling cloaks, and are talking in whispers. None of them had ordered anything either. Very interesting...[/COLOR]

[Desbreko]

[size=1]Oy...it's spelled "Aeris," not "Aries," Domon. Why do so many people have trouble with putting the "e" before the "r"? :rolleyes:[/size]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

[color=indigo]Samus: Hey guys, what do you make of those four?

[i]Samus points in the direction of the four cloaked and hooded travelers sitting in the corner. One of them has a paper, and seems to be reading an article in it while whispering to the others. The front page can be seen, and on it is the picture of Princess Peach running towards the boat.[/i]

Mario: Looks-a like a shady bunch to me.

Link: Mmm...good burger...

[i]Samus and Mario turn and watch as Link takes a rather large bite out of his burger, seemingly oblivious to his surroundings. Samus waves a hand up and down in front of his face.[/i]

Samus: Hey...Link.

Link: Huh? It wasn't me this time, I swear... Oh, um, yeah, they don't exactly look friendly, do they?

Aroma: Perhaps we should follow them when they leave?

[i]The other three look over at Madam Aroma, their eyes immediatly going to the empty bowls and plates in front of her.[/i]

Link: How did she...?

Mario: But that was...

Samus: ...A lot of food.

Aroma: Well, what are we going to do, then?

[i]Mario, Samus, and Link snap back to the matter at hand, and look up.[/i]

Mario: Hmm, maybe it will-a lead us to some-a clues about the Piranha Plants.

Link: Well, it's not like there are any other clues, so why not?

Samus: ...We?

Aroma: Oh, yes, I always thought it would be sort of romantic to go on a real adventure...

[i]Link shifts his eyes back and forth, thinking rapidly. "This can't be good," is what he comes up with the most.[/i]

Link: Ah...romantic? I've been on a lot of adventures, and I can't say that they were very romantic, for the most part. Fighting off hordes of Stalfos Knights sure ain't what I call romantic.

Mario: I-a think it would be best for you to stay here in the village, Madam. Most "adventures" as you say, are not fit a...ah...lady like-a yourself.

Aroma: Oh, nonsense. Samus is a lady, and she's been on lots!

[i]Samus makes a face, wondering how she should take that comment.[/i]

Link: Um, I don't know about other people, but I don't really consider Samus to be the same sort of "lady" as you.

Samus: Heh, and what's that mean? Can't imagine me in a dress?

Link: Um...no, not really.

Aroma: Why ever not? I'm sure you would look beautiful in a gown, instead of that old rusty armor.

[i]Samus glances over at Madam Aroma and raises an eyebrow. That "old rusty armor" is a force to be reckoned with.[/i]

Samus: Hmm, maybe after we settle whatever is going on, I'll go buy a dress and show you my "feminine side."

[i]There's a strange silence among the group for a few seconds, until Mario finally speaks up.[/i]

Mario: Well, whatever we're-a gonna do, we gotta do it now. They're-a heading for the door, and if we-a want to follow them, we'd best be catching up.

[i]The four stand up from the table as the four stange characters walk out the door, and drop payment for their meals in the center of the table; Mario's payment makes up most of the money on the table. Samus picks up her helmet, and replaces it over her head, and the group heads for the door, hoping that the four strange people haven't gotten too far.[/i][/color]

[Domon]

[i] As the Airship sped off towards the Mushroom Kingdom Tidus was walking to the galley to get some lunch, how he managed to eat whille he was in the air he had no idea just the thought of it made him a little queasy, as he approached the observation deck he saw Yuffie and Cloud talking, Tidus walked over to Cloud and struck up a conversation with him.[/i]

Tidus: So what do you think is causing this new evil to reappear??

Cloud: Jenova or from what I've heard several maniac scientists have joined together to make this evil, but i know that they don't leave monsters behind, After Jenova was defeated, all the monsters in the world disappeard. So i know that she has been resurrected but by who, that is the question..

Tidus: Well i came over here to ask you if you want to sword spar against each other, you know just for the heck of it. Oh and i've invited Sephiroth to join as well.

Cloud: Alright. When and where??

Tidus: In the empty Cargo bay in about 2 hours, so everyone can get some food in their stomachs. Hey Yuffie, what is wrong with you??

Yuffie: I hate flying, i.. I think my Airsickness just kicked in.. Ughhhhh....

Tidus: Here take this. [i] hands Yuffie an Elixer...[/i] Found it in one of the chests in my quarters, it should make you feel better..

Yuffie: Thanks.

[i] Tidus was heading towards the galley when he saw a creature standing in front of the galley door, he quickly drew his sword and quietly walked up behind the creature when all of a sudden it spoke.[/i]

RedXIII: Wouldn't do that if I were you.

Tidus: *jumps back in surprise* What the heck!!!??? You can talk???

RedXIII: Of course, what you thought i was some kind of monster didn' you..

Tidus: Uh well yeah actually if you must know the truth.

RedXIII: That's okay, anyways my name is RedXIII.

Tidus: That's a strange name, cool but strange. My name is Tidus nice to meet you. Are you on your way to get something to eat?

RedXIII: Actually i am.

[i] The two of them stepped into the galley and Tidus noticed that Sephiroth was ther by a window looking out at the sky, he seemed to be at peace and what seemed to be happy. Tidus ordered his food and sat down and wolfed it down like a maniac and then went over to talk to Sephiroth.[/i]

[Heartless Me]

Alucard reached his hand out to the door, turning the knob and pushing the door open. Almost suprisingly he was not greeted by the dank smell of the dead but quite a pleasent smell of lavender and rosepetals. The dhampier's eyes narrowed to mere slits, the iris' glowing a dark blue color in the candle light. The room was decorated in a royal midieval motife cloth draped the walls and extravagant curtains covered the only two windows. Standing in the center of the room was a large podium with steps leading up to a larger than life coffin. The resting place of Cound Dracula Tepes.

Walking up to the Coffin he drew his sword out stepping up to the coffin. He closed his eyes standing right next to the sarcophogus and concendrated lifting his arms and angling the sword blade down. With a mighty shove he thrusted the sword right through the coffin. No scream was heard, however, and There was no blood on his blade as he drew it out. With a growl he flipped the lid of the coffin to find that it is empty. A dark and menacing laughter was heard from all around him, echoing off of each wall and into his ears. Alucard growled with anger and glared upwards yelling.

'Father! Come out you coward! I destroyed you once before, I shall do it again!!!'

"Silly boy, when we last did battle I had yet to reach my full power. Now that I am at my maximum potential, you have no chance of stopping me!"

The shadows of one corner of the room darkened then rippled almost seeming to come to life as a figure showing up in depths of the darkness and stepping out. Dracula seemed to eminate a shadowy power as his red eyes glowed menacingly. His fingers extended into long sharp and painful looking claws. He smirked at his son and started to walk forward.

"Every monster you killed in my castle hath added to my power and as we speak my disciple is creating more monsters still and ressurecting the creatures you've destroyed. You have no hope of defeating me."

'Maybe not father... But then again, maybe that phrase works the other way around.'

His body blurred into supernatural vampiric speed as he landed sword slash upon sword slash on Draculas chest arms and head. After the short assault was over he lept back double jumping for extra distance holding his sword to the battle ready stance. What Alucard saw next however was what was the most disencouraging. All he could do is look on in suprise and shock as all of the wounds from his vampire slaying blade simply closed and mended even going so far as to restitch the clothing with his magic leaving not a scar.

"My turn."

Dracula dissappeard and before Alucard could react he felt the bite of a set of ten fingered claws sliding over his armor basically shredding it and ended with a punch directly to the chest which shattered his breastplate and threw him into the shadows, the last place he wanted to be and the place just where dracula wanted him. Suddenly the shadows sprung to life, two thick tentacles wrapping around his legs holding him there with the strength of the shadows wielder. He tried to move but found himself unable.

'Damn you father! what have you done?'

"I've disabled you you little twit! And now to send you to a place you will never be able to defy me again! Good bye.... son"

He spoke the words dripping with venom, his eyes burning with hate. His hands drew in towards his stomach and faced his palms togather forming a small black ball of energy it looked like. As Alucard struggled against the strength and will of the shadows, Dracula focused harder on the ball, black lightning coursing around the outside of it. With a mighty thrust he shot the basketball sized ball of black lightning and unholy energy at Alucard but he was no fool... though his legs were immobile he could still move the rest of his body. He bent his knees falling backwards, his arms moving up and arching around placing his palms on the ground his body in an arch as the ball of darkness flew over his body and slammed against the wall creating a large black portal digging through space and time to a destination unknown. In the meantime Alucard pushed off his hands and glared at his father.

'I don't know what the hell that was but it's not going to work. I still have one trick up my sleave and you are NOT going to like it.'

His free hand grabbed the glass vial of holy water and threw it onto the ground, there was a flash of light and an unholy screech from the shadows as the tentacles vanished and he blurred forward again as the startled Dracula merely stood there. Alucard let out a mighty yell using the last of his magical/blood power saved up to activate the special power of his sword as it glows with a bright white light driving the blade into where a mans heart would normally be.

Meanwhile, back on the airship

Megan and Sephiroth were sitting togather in the eating galley, making a bit of small talk as they were eating when out of nowhere a large black portal flew open sucking megan back into it. She let out a shrill scream as she dissappeared into the portal.

"Sephy, help me!!!"

'NO! Megan!'

Sephiroth watched as megan dissappeared then realized the portal was closing. There was no way he would loose another person so he lept into the diminishing correspondance rift dissappearing from view of Tidus, Cloud and the others. His party tried to follow but the hole closed before any of them could reach the hole in space.

Back in Draculas Inner Sanctum

Alucards eyes narrow as he forses the blade all the way in and wretched the sword to the side as he pulled it out cutting deeper into his fathers chest.

'Now father you die.'

Draculas eyes widen as Alucard draws back for the killing blow but a feminine scream distracts him. Draculas eyes flash instantly taking advantage of the situation. He suddenly dissappeared from sight. Alucard growled in rage and spun around seeing the back of Dracula and started to charge him but paused as he turned around holding a beautiful young woman in a manner in which she had no way to defend herself. He stepped back into the shadows dissapearing but his voice still echoed in the dimly lit room.

"Not this time, my son. I cannot die, I am eternal! We shall finish this another time."

Just as the silence cut off the portal spit out another figure, a tall thin man with long white hair, a black trench coat and a very very big sword. Immediately he saw Alucard, he had a bloody sword in his hand so of course the past events would cause the stressed Sephiroth to jump to conclusions.

"Where is she? Where is megan?! What have you done!"

'I don't have a girl, I have no idea what you are talking about.'

"You lie! I see the blood on your sword monster!"

With that Sephiroth came at Alucard sword raised to attack in a slash across his chest. Alucards eyes widened as he moved his sword with split second timing to parry the blade of the masamune both weapons quivering against their nearly unbreakable quality and the strengths of their wielders. And thus, thier battle begins.

[Boba Fett]

[COLOR=green]Samus, Mario, Link and Madame Aroma briskly walked across the sleepy tavern and out into the street, hot in pursuit of the four mysterious travelers.

As they walked across the village, doing their best to remain inconspicuous, Samus whispered to Mario...

[B]Samus[/B]: "You know Madame Aroma better than any of us. Why don't you take her to the inn across the street and book her a room there. I don't think it would be good for her to get in a fight if it comes to that."[/COLOR]

[COLOR=red][B]Mario[/B]: "Your-a right. I'll see a-you in a minute."[/COLOR]

[COLOR=green]Mario takes Madame Aroma's arm and walks with her across the street towards the inn. Samus watches them for a minute, then turns back to Link.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=limegreen][B]Link[/B]: "Quick, their gaining on us. They just disappeared down that alley" *Points toward a alley between to factories*[/COLOR]

[COLOR=green]Samus jogged up to Link, and then the both turned the corner into the alley, to find it mysteriously empty.

Samus activated her heat sensors and quickly scanned the garbage cans, dumpsters and other likely hiding spots for the cloaked figures. Her careful scans turned up nothing but rats, and she was about to tell Link that they he failed when something hit her hard on the head.

She fell to the grimy ground, and a black gloved hand placed hard metal object against the back of her head.

Her helmets radar told her the same thing was happening to Link, and that two of the figures were standing guard at the ends of the alley, while the other two were threatening Link and herself.

???: "Samus and Link, what would you two fine upstanding citizens be doing here?"

[B]Samus[/B]: "None of your business."

???: "A pity, I guess its sleepy time for both of you..."

Suddenly another voice speaks from the other end of the alley...[/COLOR]

[COLOR=red][B]Mario[/B]: "I don't think-a so!"[/COLOR]

[COLOR=green]The two figures who were restraining Samus and Link turn to face their new opponent, and Samus strikes.

Setting her laser to stun she uses her legs to trip one of the cloaked figures, then she stood and fired a stun bolt into him.

She turns to Link, to find him standing over the unconscious body of his opponent. Mario runs towards them, his FLUDD strapped to his back and a worried look on his face

The fourth figure takes off and jumps into a waiting car.

Samus turns to give chase, but Link motions for her to stop.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=limegreen][B]Link[/B]: "Let's see who these people are first."[/COLOR]

[COLOR=green]Mario reaches over and pulls of the hood of one of the figures to reveal...[/COLOR]

[GinnyLyn]

From a high tower of the evil villian headquarters, the Don waved his gloved hand. [color=green]"Let'a the wild one out."[/color]
Far below, at the base of the headquarters, a rusty gate (the kind you tend to see in old King Authur movies) squealed into action as it was slowly raised. A pair of slitted eyes glowed from the depths of the darkness, and, in a moment, the feral griffon once known as the Guardian Auron leapt from its confinement, and galloped into the forest. With a chilling screech that sent several birds to flight, the griffon spread its dark wings and chased the small creatures, viciously tearing into one with its beak and slashing another with its talons. It then continued its flight as if nothing had happened.
The F Virus was working. The bloodlust was on.
[color=green]"Let's'a see Mario defend against'a this,"[/color] the Don chuckled darkly.

[Domon]

[i] Tidus watched on in horror as Sephiroth and Megan were sucked into a portal, he had tried to run through it when it closed then he realized that they could use the sensors on the Airship (The ones that were used in FFX when the group was looking for Yuna.) to find them. Tidus ran straight for the bridge and ran straight up to both Cids and spoke.[/i]

Tidus: [i] panting[/i] Sephiroth and Megan are gone, swallowed up by a portal, we gotta use those sensors again.

Rikku's father Cid: Okay i finally found out how to use the darn things so lets take a looksie.

[i] A small globe appears and two dots that register as Sephiroth and Megan appear about 200 miles from where the ship is at its current point.[/i]

Tidus: We better get there, from the feeling i got from that portal it sure as hell wasn't a good one so they may be in danger.

[i] With that the Airship changed directions and flew off towards their new destination at full throttle. After about half an hour of flying the ship came to a slow landing crawl, Tidus looked out the bridge window and saw a huge castle envloped in Mist, he really got the willies now and told Cid to give them a little more light on the subject and with that Cid activated the floodlights and activated the heat sensors and they found Sephiroth and he was fighting with something.[/i]

Tidus: Deploy the anchors. Everyone we're going in.

[i] After the ship came alongside the wall to the chamber Sephiroth was in the ship deployed its large anchors and this time the group walked calmly down and when they saw what Sephiroth was fighting they all got into a fighting stance. But as this creature was about to strike Sephiroth it found out it couldn't hit him, Yuna had cast a protect spell on him. The creature turned to them and spoke.[/i]
