Kieo1 Posted 1/19/2008 7:57:15 PM: ~Roy~
"Alright but if something goes wrong like only my clothes disappear or I'm permantly invisible. Or something even worse. But if you think you got it in you let's give it a try. And thanks for offering. It might take a little more though. I'll ask Shinta and Lune when this is over," Roy said getting up.
Roy sighed as a look of relief came over his face. He smiled a little then returned ot his normal expression. He turned to Cheska.
"I feel it again the thud again. It's slowly coming up again. Alright let's give it a try. So what should I do?" Roy said.
----------------------------------------------------------------
shadow5565 Posted 1/19/2008 8:01:57 PM: ~Lune~
She ran into the dome with Drake and Reyson. Lune saw the body Reyson and Serentiy were near. It was blood splattered.
"Please...excuse me." The two angelus moved back away from Arke's body. She lifted his head seeing if he was still breathing. "No . . . "
"That face of yours is priceless." Octave said getting up from Serenity's attack. "You....killed him?" Lune was too sad to even think about fighting. Tears started falling on his chest.
~Arke~
'Am I dead?' He thought. Someone was lifting his head up but he couldn't open his eyes. 'Those tears.....they feel like Lune's.' In Arke's right hand he clutched something. It was an old-fashioned pocket watch. He struggled opening it.
'I protected your temple....with my life!' He shouted in his head. 'The vow you accepted. I can only use your powers once....now let me use them.'
'Greater Craymel! Turn back time! Sekundes!'
~A few moments ago~
"****!" Arke parried another attack from Octave. "Ah....Shinta has arrived." He remembered where he was now. Arke put his wings away, coming back around his ribs. The stab he got stil hurt but thanks to his ribs he didn't die.
~Present~
Arke's wound suddenly became less deep. "Stop crying already. I'm alive." He said rubbing his head.
"Arke!!" Lune hugged him tightly. The wounded man was cut off guard by this but returned the hug.
"I don't know how you survived that but it's not over. Ground Dasher!" Lune quickly picked up Arke and flew away. Everyone else managed to dodge the attack.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/19/2008 8:08:59 PM: ~Cheska~
"I'm not entirely sure . . . just don't slip or something and take flight. We're going to high tail it. Most likely I have to transfer the technique into your mana, which should cause you to turn invisible. Make sure to hightail it to Shinta and Lune. Alright, here goes nothing!" Quickly the girl became invisible and she grabbed his wrist. She transferred the techinque, not her mana in fear of giving him mana poisoning.
Soon enough, Roy disappeared alongside her.
"Great, now let's go!"
~Shinta~
"HEY!!!! Octave! Are you looking at this handsome beast!?" Shinta sneered at the man, readying his weapon.
'Man, now I'm starting to sound just like dad . . .'
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/19/2008 8:14:47 PM: ~Roy~
"Alright hightail it to Shinta and Octave. Got it. Let's move," Roy said flying as soon as Cheska climbed on his back.
Roy flew through the rooms avoiding anything in his way. Eventually they entered the room with Shinta and Lune.
"The amazing hero is here!" Roy said entering hte room.
----------------------------------------------------------------
shadow5565 Posted 1/20/2008 9:51:39 AM: ~Lune~
"Take care of Octave, guys! I'll heal Arke!" Lune flew to the other side of the dome, away from the fight.
"You'll be fine Arke. Just never do anything stupid like that again!" 'It's good to be back...' He thought
~Octave~
"Oh, goodie. The whole gang's here now. I get to kill everyone but Shinta." Octave slammed his sickle and sword into the ground.
"Come, three riders of the Apocalypse show thine enemies a taste of how it will all end! Judgement Day!!!"
A combination of Ground Dasher, Cyclone, Eruption, Tidal wave and Ray hit all but Lune and Arke.
"How's that for an introduction?" Taunted Octave.

LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 10:32:58 AM: ~Shinta~
Shinta cried out for about a second before he instinctively casted heal on himself. He charged forward and locked blades.
"So, why am I so special, anyways!?" Shinta sneered before exerted more forced into his blade, he pushed Octave off balance and slashed.
~Cheska~
She readied her bow and focused on Octave. She was still invisible, of course, but at that particular moment a cry was heard in her head.
'I'm sorry . . . I'm just a weakling in reality. I get in everyone's way . . . I deserve to die . . .'
'Hey, don't say that! You're stronger than anyone I know!'
'It's . . . too late for that Jack . . .'
Cheska let an arrow fly, hitting Octave dead on as Shinta backed away.
"You wench!!" Octave charged at the girl. And then the worst happened.
Her balance was lost just for a second, but that second nearly cost her her life.
SHWICK!!!
A thump was heard. Cheska fell back on her bottom, pale as a sheet.
Shinta cried out to Octave in rage. Right beside Shinta however, was a clothed arm, completely severed. Blood drenched the young woman.
She just didn't want to be a burden . . . So she quietly sat there, in shock and not wanting anyone to help her.
----------------------------------------------------------------
HeavenGundam Posted 1/20/2008 10:45:02 AM: Orpheus was blown away by the sheer force of the combined artes, picking himself of the floor staggering to get up supporting himself on Belderiver.
"Damn that hurt," he slid back to fighting form. His and everyones eyes widen when they saw Cheska fall to ground with a bloody stump for an arm. His rage boiled over and Belderiver was doing nothing to stop it.
"Time to die bastard!" he declared loudly hurling his cloak and unsealing his wings without second thought. He started one of his few spells "Oh darkened storm clouds let loose thy blade and run my enemies through, Thunder Blade!"
Not letting up, after casting the spell he spun Belderiver like a wild cyclone with crackling with dark and lightning mana, Belderiver's ruby core glowed with unmatched heat. "Shadow Step!" He disappeared and reappeared behind Octave. He aimed for his jugular only to have it blocked with his sword but the mana he gathered earlier manged to knock back a few feet to exactly where he was aiming Thunder Blade. He quickly back away as his arte came crashing down on Octave.
----------------------------------------------------------------
shadow5565 Posted 1/20/2008 10:49:57 AM: ~Octave~
Well I must admit that hurt." Octave said getting up from Orpheus' attack. He glard at Shinta.
"You don't have to yell at me. It was just an arm on a useless, researcher!" Octave jumped and appeared behind Cheska.
He grabbed her by the neck. Octave raised his sickle to her neck.
"Shinta, surrender yourself to me or she along with everyone else dies. Not like anyone would care if she died." Octave shook the gril around a little. More blood dripped from her arm covering the ground beside them.
"ICICLE RAIN!!!" Lune shouted. Ice started falling toward Octave. "Stupid girl!!!"
Octave raised Cheska to defend himself. Lune managed to destroy most of the icicles before they hit Cheska. A few got through though to her chest.....
"NO!!! CHESKA!!!"
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 11:10:40 AM: ~Cheska~
All this pain . . . she was glad those icicles did not strike in the heart. She knew what Lune was trying to do, but in her unconscious mind she did not know how to react.
Another memory . . .
'Haha, mommy . . . you think I could be strong as you? I mean you have all these super cool moves!'
'Aria . . . of course you can be strong. You can be strong here . . . and here.' This time there was an image to accompany this.
A lovely woman was standing next to a small girl, who looked around her first decade, smiling and placing a powerful hand on her shoulder. The blonde haired girl smiled brightly in admiration for the woman. The older girl then placed her other hand on her heart.
'Aria, you can be strong without me teaching you ice artes. You have the orphans to take care of, as well as your little buddy Jack!'
'Yeaaaaaaaaaaaah, I guess so Mommy. But please, please, PLEASE teach me ice artes!! I still want to be super cool and looked up to!!' The girl pleaded as the woman sighed.
'Alright, you win Aria.'
~Shinta~
"No!!! Lune!! CHESKA!!" Right now everything seemed hopeless. All this rage, boiling inside the man . . .
"How dare you, Octave!! Second seal, RELEASE!!!" Shinta's wings burst as he disappeared and reappeared with Cheska, away from Octave's grasp. Quickly he casted heal on the girl to help her recover some of the wounds and then charged at Octave.
"YOU MURDERER!! I won't forgive you for this!!!" Shinta appeared behind Octave and kicked him in the back, sending him flying a few hundred feet.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 11:46:45 AM: ~Roy~
"You bastard! I'll kill you! You almost killed Arke, then you sever Cheska's arm! But what pisses me off to no end is the fact you're using a wounded person as a hostage! I won't stand for it!" Roy yelled.
By this time he had both of his swords in hand and had hidden Zieo and his pack away. Roy unsealed his wings and stepped forward.
"Screw Shinta you're facing me now!" Roy said as everyone felt the immense amount of lightening and wind mana surrounding him.
"And I got the perfect techniques to rip you to shreds!"
Roy began to glide circles on the ground around Octave. He was boosted by his wind powers so he seemed liek a green blur. Every now and then Roy would move away from circling and just give Octave a small hit.

rplow Posted 1/20/2008 12:02:07 PM: Drake looked at the bloody stump that had used to be Cheska's arm with a look of shock on his face.
"All this killing...........all for a madman's dream..............it has to stop."
It was too risky going in for a direct attack. Either Octave would rip him to shreds, or Roy would hit him by accident. One thing to do.
"Okay Roy, lets see how many elements it takes to kill a mad man! Hellfire Breath!"
Drake breathed in deeply, then blew out, sending a ball of black flames flying straight at Roy. The flames, on contact, were sucked into Roy's spinning, adding to the potency of the attack.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 12:05:48 PM: ~Shinta~
Immediately the man charged ahead of Roy and Drake and leapt, bringing down a few lightening quick thrusts of his katar.
"Damn, I don't know what to do! We have to hurry this battle otherwise Cheska will die! I can't do anything about her damn arm!" He yelled out of frustration, waiting for a large opportunity to strike.
"Third seal, release!!! Ice strike!" Shinta shouted as his katar became absolute zero temperature. He struck at Octave.
----------------------------------------------------------------
lancer1237 Posted 1/20/2008 12:14:01 PM: ~Reyson's story~
"I-I wont forgive you. 1 st seal release!" Reyson called. Two glorious black wings took the form on his back.
"Now! This proves that Orpheus technique was not wasted. Darkened wings outstretch to the heavens and give me the powers of hell. Second Seal!" Reyson's wings detached and became a metalic, bionc form. The sword he held in his hand curved taking the form of the sythe.
"Now. Taste the power...of the master of death!!!!" Reyson yelled flying through the air to join the others.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 12:28:08 PM: ~Roy~
Roy wasn't thinking completely straight. As he sped around he sheathed his swords. He then formed a mass of lightening in one hand and a ball of wind in the other. He put htem together to make one concentrated attack. His right hand blasted small lightening in a region and wind also enveloped the attack.
'The time is now. My second strongest attack. I cna't put it at full power or I might hit Cheska,' Roy thought as he continued to spin.
"Gale Blade: Killing Art of the Sky!" Roy said running at Octave's back.
He pressed the attack against Octave's back. The lightening seemed to go through him like blades. There was one focused point that was in front of Roy's palm which made the biggest cut. The wind lashed away at Octave as well. Roy concentrated one blast of wind which he used to send Cheska flying out of Octave's grip.
"You die now! Lightening Reaper!"
The extra lightening that was the main concentrated one began to surround Octave. It grabbed Octave like giant claws. Roy knew that he wasn't going to be able to contain Octave for much longer.
"Vortex!"
A giant gale of wind began to circle around them so that Octave couldn't move out of it without getting ripped to shreds. The only problem was that no one could get out and no one could really come in with out haveing the bladed winds rip them apart.
"You guys got to find a way to finish him. I won't be able to hold him for very lond. Stray winds fly out of and lash at the both of us!" Roy said as a blade cut him in the back.
----------------------------------------------------------------
shadow5565 Posted 1/20/2008 12:52:38 PM: ~Octave~
"No this is it!!! Ha hah ha! I wanted to die anyway!" Octave then took his sickle and stabbed himself in the stomach. His hair color slowly turned gold as it was originally jet-black. Roy then slowly made his vortex disappear.
"So was that a good warm up?" Octave said climbing down some stairs. "At least my brother was actually helpful." Octave picked up his fallen brother's weapons.
"You used your brother!?" Arke said running up. All of his wounds were healed.
"Yes but he is about one half of my power. The true battle begins!!" Dopplegangers appeared each one attack one member of the group.
The real Octave was focusing on Shinta. "If you'd just surrender none of them would have to die."
~Lune~
"I'm so sorry, Cheska." Lune said picking her up. She brought the wounded girl behind one of the pillars, safely away from the fight. Lune focused her powers on her arm, trying to stop the blood from flooding out. She used her other arm to heal where her icicles hit.
"Please....hang in there Cheska."

LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 12:59:34 PM: ~Shinta~
"WHO SAID ANYONE WAS GOING TO DIE!? RAY!!!" Shinta showered many beams of light against his enemy, hoping it would weaken him.
"YOU WILL PAY!!!"
~Cheska~
Quietly, Cheska's heartbeat was beginning to slow more and more . . .
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 1:09:17 PM: ~Roy~
"****! I waisted to much strenght on a fake. I'll make sure to take the real one out with my special techinique," Roy said.
His previous attack was still surrounding his right hand. Except now it was weaker than before. Roy ran through the swarms of Octaves tearing through them with his attack. Just being touched by one of the sparks of ligthening destroyed the Octaves.
Eventually Roy's attack begna to grow smaller and smaller. When the attack had run out he walked over to Cheska and Lune.
"How is she?" he panted leaning over Cheska.
----------------------------------------------------------------
shadow5565 Posted 1/20/2008 1:15:22 PM: ~Lune~ "She's getting worse, Roy." More blood pumped out of her arm.
"No! Don't go dying on me!" Lune now focused her powers on her heart.
"You are not dying! All of those people who have Solstice fever, will die if you don't pass out the cure! There's too much at stake if you die! They're all counting on you! The victims, your friends,"
"And Roy! Dammit! FOURTH SEAL, ANGELS BLESSING!" Now Cheska's body was glowing golden with all the power healing her. If this didn't work....then....
~Arke~
"Take this!" Arke bashed the Octave doppleganger with his violin. He feel to the crack of his skull. "Didn't expect it to be impenetrable, did you?" Arke ran across the room, getting closer to Octave and Shinta.
~Octave~
"Petty attacks." Octave commented. "Try this! Otherwordly Negative Gate!"
A giant black ball of dark mana surrounded Shinta. Arke quickly slashed Octave before he could finish Shinta off.
"If anyone deserves to kill you, Octave it's me!!" Arke stood by Shinta who's knocked down on the ground.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 1:42:41 PM: ~Roy~
"Come on Cheska don't die yet. You've still got a whole lot of stuff to do in your life. So don't die yet alright. Come on hang in there," Roy said putting his hand on Cheska.
"Lune what do you need me to do. I'll help in anyway I can. Should I try to transfer some mana into her to make help her. Do I need to rip out some of my blood and give it to her. Do I have to reattach her arm some how. Well, what just tell me. I'll do anything," Roy said looking at Cheska.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 1:50:36 PM: ~Cheska~
The breathing stopped. Her heart was at a standstill, but her mind was still functioning . . . It was only a manner of time . . .
~Shinta~
"Arke, let's keep it up!!" Shinta yelled, performing blizzard upon Octave. He hoped soon this battle would end.

Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 1:59:08 PM: ~Roy~
"Damnit Cheska don't give up yet. Here drink this," Roy said pulling out a small bottle.
"This is a type of stimulater that might help her. I hope. Come on drink, for me drink. Don't die damnit," Roy said making Cheska drink the potion.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 2:03:20 PM: ~Cheska~
'W-where am I? That light . . . I guess . . . no! I have to fight it! R-Roy!?'
Soon the heart began to beat softly . . . and a little louder.
A soft mumble escaped the girl's lips.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 2:27:33 PM: ~Roy~
"Yes she's coming through. Come on Cheska don't give up wake up, wake up Cheska!" Roy said hearing the gasp Cheska gave out.
"Come on open your eyes," Roy said looking directly down at her, "and when you wake up I'll kick that guy's ass for the boht of us."
"But there is the small problem of your arm."
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 2:34:58 PM: ~Cheska~
'That healing . . . was that Lune?' It was a few moments before her eyes were ready to open. Everything seemed fuzzy at first, but the first thing her pupils focused on was the man above her.
"R-Roy . . .? W-what happened . . .?" She then turned her head slightly to find Lune beside her.
"H-hey Lune . . ."
Then it hit her. The pain, the event, everything.
She didn't dare turn her head. It was aching so much, drawing her eyes to it. There it was. The blood wasn't as free-flowing but it still dripped. No longer her right arm was there. There it was, an empty space. She stared, wide-eyed, horrified by this. Not another word escaped from her lips for a few moments. The only sound that did emit from her mouth was the hiss caused by extreme pain.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 2:46:06 PM: ~Roy~
"Well you're up that's good. Look we'll super glue your arm back on latre. Lune watch after her, I've got one more technique to show off. It probably won't kill Octave but it'll give Shinta and arke a chance to finish him off," Roy said drawing his swords.
"Get well Cheska," Roy said flying towards Octave.
"I'm here to help. I've got a technique that will likely terrorize this guy. But I think we should weaken him up some more."

shadow5565 Posted 1/20/2008 2:53:54 PM: ~Lune~
"Right I'll .....Bring your arm over here. I might be able to re-attach it!" Lune ran over to the severed arm and brought it back.
"Cheska....calm down. You will be okay." She started to re-attach it...
~Arke~
"It's useless! I am immortal!" Octave said laughing at Shinta's latest attack.
"Shinta, Roy! Show me your strongest attack! Then I'll charge in and finish it!" Arke stood in a ready stance...
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 3:04:00 PM: ~Cheska~
A sharp gasp was heard.
"Lune, please. Don't attach something that's dead . . . no point . . . the nerves not kept at frozen temperatures. It would be ... useless ..." Cheska managed to say, gazing up at the girl.
A false smile came across her lips for a second before it changed back to a grimace.
"I'm fine ... don't worry about me. Go kick Octave's ... ass."
~Shinta~
"Fifth seal!!! Twin Fire Strike!!" Lancesmade of raw flames hailed upon Octave. Shinta rushed in without warning and threw multiple kicks and slashes as the lances came upon them.
----------------------------------------------------------------
shadow5565 Posted 1/20/2008 3:14:53 PM: ~Lune~
"I understand, Cheska. It's already dead." Lune threw the arm off into a corner.
"Now what? Are you just going to live without an arm?" Lune just couldn't step away from a friend going through this much pain...
~Arke~
"That works too!" Arke ran up alongside Shinta. Unleashing his sword on the angelus.
"I think you can do your attack now, Roy!" Arke yelled over the constant clanking of metal
----------------------------------------------------------------
rplow Posted 1/20/2008 3:16:10 PM: ~Drake~
As Roy, Arke, and Shinta charged the real Octave, the rest of the remaining clones decided to go after Lune and Cheska. Not if Drake could help it. The 4 doppelgangers made a ring around Lune and Cheska. It was only a matter of time. There were to many for Lune to take alone, and for Drake to take alone, unless....... Drake jumped in front of Lune.
"1st Seal, Release! Hellfire Cremation!"
Two of the doppelgangers fell to the ground, but Drake was only just getting warmed up. his eyes started to glow dangerously black, a ball of dark mana eveloping each hand. Suddenly, Drake got an idea.
"That scroll, about combining weapons by mana..........Am I strong enough now?"
Drake pulled his lance off of his back, along with Zekcagok. The giant sword already started to feel lighter.
"Okay, Weapon Fusion!"
Drake slammed the two weapons together. suddenly, Drake was enveloped in a flash of darkness. The two clones shielded their eyes.
As quickly as it appeared, the flash disappeared, leaving Drake standing in the middle of a scorched black ring. In his right hand was his lance, one end shattered. Stuck into the shattered end was Zekcagok. Suddenly, the shattered end started to reform, wrapping around the hilt of the sword, permanently attaching the sword to the end of the lance. Drake grabbed the lance with his left hand. Dark mana surged through him. suddenly, he felt a presence in his head.
"Ugh......how long was I out for?"
"You the soul of Zekcgok?" Drake thought back.
"Ya...hey, you aren't Koran!"
"You're right, I'm his descendent. You've been sleeping for I'm guessing 160-180 years." "Fair enough, i'll help you for now............"
Drake spun the now 10 ft long lance, shadowy black wings extending from his back.
"Lets kill these doppelgangers."
"Pfft, just doppelgangers. How pathetic."
Drake slashed with his lance, slashing straight through one of the clones as if it were butter. Drake spun, stabbing the other one through it's head. Suddenly, Drake realized. The sword wasn't heavy anymore.
"Now, lets show the real deal what we've got. what's you strongest technique?"
"Well, I've never really had enough mana to practically use it."
"Well, now you do. Show me what you've got."
Drake jumped really high into the air, sheathing the lance onto his back.
"From the deepest pits of hell I summon thee, to burn to ashes all my foes! Advanced Shadow Fire Arte- Hellfire Dragon!"
Drake breathed in a huge breath, then let out a huge stream of shadow fire. The shadow fire coiled, the formed into a huge, burning, black dragon, making a coil around Shinta and Octave. Arke and Shinta had the good sense to jump out of the coil, but Octave, on the other hand just stood there.
"Pfft, you think the Dragon will hurt me? I already told you, i'm invincible!"
"Ya, well, lets see about that! Cataclysmic Immolation!"
The Dragon breathed in, the let out a huge fireball of dark and fire mana, filling up it's entire coil, which was already a few good yards wide. Slowly, the dragon dispersed, leaving a huge ring of shadow fire.
"Okay Roy, now it's your turn!"
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 3:18:44 PM: ~Roy~
"Bastard you die now!" Roy said when Shinta's attack cleared up and a huge amount of mana charged around them.
"By the powers of wind and lightenig. I call forth thy destructive wrath. The end is near. Falcon's Crest!"
A spell seal which launched lightening blasts appeared under Roy and Octave. Roy sent Octave in teh air with multiple sword hits. When in the air the elements focused into Roy's swords as he rammed Roy with them. Octave was on the ground with Roy's swords in him. Roy quickly removed the swords and jumped back.
"End it now Arke!"

shadow5565 Posted 1/20/2008 3:42:16 PM: ~Arke~
All he did was nod to Roy as he stepped back. Octave was there covering the gashes in his chest.
Arke placed his sword by his neck. "You...."
"You completely destroyed my life. Twenty-three years of torture! Everyone I met hated me and with that ruined me! All those times the villagers ran my family out of town!" Arke now clenched his fist.
"Even though I thought being alive was a curse.....I must also thank you, Octave." Everyone was caught off guard by this.
"If you didn't do this to me, I would've never met this people." Arke raised his sword. As soon as he brought up high, Octave stopped him with his words.
"Either way you will die soon. Those wings will kill you-" Arke stabbed him in the throat.
"I'll figure it out on my own, thanks." He turned to everyone. "With this, Octave's golems will be disabled. Now lets aid our friend." Arke began walking towards Cheska and Lune.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 3:48:10 PM: ~Shinta~
"Right . . . let's help our friend." Shinta began to walk to the poor girl.
~Cheska~
"Lune . . . I'll find some way . . . until then I have to manage." She forced a painful smile and immediately cried out in pain.
"Gawd, it hurts . . ." She was on the verge of passing out again.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 4:08:04 PM: ~Roy~
Roy moved over ot Cheska. He kneeled down next to her. he looked at the dead arm then back at Cheska.
"I got an idea. Serenity, oh sorry Lady Serenity don't you guys replace some broken wounds or something with metal limbs times. I've met a few who had them. Couldn't you guys give her a new metal arm. Don't you guys normally make it so a person can control them and stuff," Roy said looking at Serenity.
'Crap should've spoken to her it might end up bad on my part. But if it's to help Cheska I guess it's worth it,' Roy thought.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 4:14:58 PM: ~Cheska~
Cheska immediately froze.
"N-no! I don't want to be like . . . !" She had to admit, a metal arm would not be bad. But there were so many problems, similar to Arke's rods.
Able to move slightly, her hand moved to her pocket and she pulled out a leaf. It was a narcotic agent, and she bit and chewed onto it.
"Sorry Lady Serenity, but I refuse the arm. Like I mentioned to everyone, I WILL be fine . . . Actually, I would like the metal arm, but don't attach . . . ah!!!"
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 4:34:29 PM: ~Roy~
"So what do we do now. Octave's taken care of but we're short one air ship. And Cheska's short one arm. Hey I got it, maybe you should get one of those that's only attached to you by your mana. Well it's your choice," Roy said looking at Cheska.
"Guys I've got an apartment close to here. Maybe we should stay there or something. We can keep Cheska there unless there's somewhere else she'd liek to go like a hospital or somethign," Roy said grabbing his things then going back to Cheska.
"Hey if you go somewhere else and I don't come back it's because they took me prisoner and possibly killed me. If they do watch over my items. And if you can ever find my brother watch after him for me," Roy whispered into Cheska's ear so only she could hear.
"Well let's go. It's all bloody and stuff here."

shadow5565 Posted 1/20/2008 4:40:02 PM: ~Arke~
"Cheska seems to be feeling okay now!" Arke said sarcastically as Serenity put on the new arm.
"Do you ever say the right thing at the right time?!" Lune yelled back. "Hey, laugh a little! We did just kill a corrupted angel after all!" He shot back.
'Why do I have the feeling I caused this? Maybe if I didn't charge in like that...' Arke thought staring at the ground.
"Y-yeah. Lets get out of this room, Roy." Lune said trying to distract Arke from his thoughts...
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 4:46:23 PM: ~Cheska~
"Roy . . . you don't have to. Please, just try to avoid . . ." She spat it out now.
"Please, just don't do that, alright!? You . . . need to come back. You need to be around . . ." She whispered pleadingly.
"OW!!" She yelped as the arm was attached. She didn't feel the nerves though. She frowned.
'I'll have to work on this . . . the pain . . . I'm not even going numb."
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 4:49:39 PM: ~Roy~
"Alright if everything's similar to how it was my apartment won't be very far from here. Follow me," Roy said leading the group.
Roy lead them to a smaller area of the giant city. He stopped in front of a small two story building. He reached under the carpet and pulled out a key. He unlocked the door and walked in.
"Bastards," Roy said under his breath.
The entire place was a mess. Maps and items were thrown everywhere. Furniture was also turned upside down. Two bookshelves lay with books scattered and opened.
"They ransacked my house. Damn that sucks. Hey guys if you want you can stay here. I just have to clean up since I haven't been here in liek 7 years. I'll explain whyit's like this later. Since at this point I might as well explain," Roy said starting to clean up, "you don't have to stay here or anything. I'll have enough couches and beds for everyone to stay here. Jsut giv eme some time to clean up. You guys can help if you want or go around the town."
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 4:53:53 PM: "Don't worry I'll avoid it as much as I can. Maybe helping to take down Octave will earn me some brownie points so she won't take me in. This is just a just in case provision," Roy said with a grin.
"Plus it's pretty cool having a metal arm. You'll have even more strenght."
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 5:02:57 PM: ~Cheska~
She walked into the apartment.
"So this is what it looks like . . ." She looked around and listened to Roy for a bit. She decided to help him.
As she was picking up the items, she felt awful.
"Losing an arm . . . so depressing. I won't get to feel anything . . ." She sighed. She couldn't believe she screwed up like that.
"I must be such a weakling . . ." She whispered to herself as she organized some scrolls.

Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 5:22:30 PM: ~Roy~
After almost two hours the house was completely clean. Roy jumped onto a couch and turned on the TV after finding the remote. The only real thing that was on was a news channel, a comedy channel, a cartoon channel, and another channel Roy didn't know about.
"Welcome to Roy's old house. I got another place but this is the one I haven't seen in years. So I guess it's about time I explained why I haven't been here in years and why I avoid angelus. Wll it all started..." Roy said avoiding the story about his twin brother.
"Yeah that's basically it. And this is my bachlor pad, you like?" Roy said looking into the fridge, "they even raided my fridge. Soemoen want to go get some drinks and food since I don't want to take a risk."
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 5:36:04 PM: ~Cheska~
"I'll go . . . I need a walk anyways," She sighed and walked out of the door, despite the pain she was going through.
She wanted to be alone for awhile. She took a rather long walk to the nearest store. Metal . . .
Though her trenchcoat was torn, she managed to somehow hide her arm away from the public. Once she reached the store she picked up many drinks, and also decided to buy some random parts.
Once she got back, she smiled,and set the drinks on the table.
"Here you all go! I'll be outside if you need me." Cheska bowed before heading outside. She looked outside trying to feel anything. She then took out a small screwdriver and began to work with the metal arm.
~Shinta~
"Yay!! Drinks!!" He hopped up and stole a soda before leaping back on the couch.
"This place is nice Roy!"
----------------------------------------------------------------
RusherMan Posted 1/20/2008 5:38:48 PM: Krysta had been gone for a long time. For some reason, she felt compelled to complete the task of making pacts with all of the summon spirits. In fact now, the only ones she was missing were Origin, Maxwell, Shadow, and the fusion of Luna and Aska, Rem. And conveniently enough, where Rem's seal was located was also where her friends were. Now, riding on Aska, she flew above the skylight and jumped down through it, landing in the middle of the room where everyone was. "Hey guys! Miss me?"
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 5:40:15 PM: ~Roy~
"I guess so isn't it. Great and she brought some food to. So what's our next step. Are we going to meet with Serenity for something or what. Whoa that was incredibly fast what the hell are they doing to him," Roy said saying the last part under his breath.
"So Octave never told ya why he wanted you huh. That sucks," Roy said putting a hand to his back.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 5:41:59 PM: ~Roy~
"Krysta, I could have sworn you were dead. One day you just disappeared. And yes I know this is my hosue and I have great taste," Roy said throwing Cheska a soda.

RusherMan Posted 1/20/2008 5:42:54 PM: "Sorry about going off on my own like that guys, but for some reason, I felt compelled to complete my Pact-making journey. In fact, since I just fused Luna and Aska into Rem back there, I only need three more spirits," Krysta explained to the party in the lounge of the apartment. She sighed and braced herself for the verbal hurricane that was probably headed her way...
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 5:54:44 PM: ~Shinta~
"I guess . . . and we need to distribute that cure." Shinta gazed at Cheska, who caught the soda with her left hand when Roy threw it to her.
"Something tells me this is not over. What do you think? Oh! Hey, Krysta! Geez! We kinda needed you!"
~Cheska~
"Thank you, Roy." She was not really in the mood to say anything. She sat down at the kitchen counter and continued her work.
She eventually pulled apart all five metal fingers and thought about how to reattach nerves to them.
----------------------------------------------------------------
RusherMan Posted 1/20/2008 6:10:46 PM: "Sorry about that, Shinta..." Krysta sighed, hanging her head and collapsing on the nearest available couch, which turned out to be the one closest to Cheska. "Hey, Cheska. I saw your arm in the tower of Rem. I really feel sorry for you, but I'm glad the rest of you is in one piece. I was so worried that you were... Ugh, I'm afraid to say it..."
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 6:14:56 PM: ~Roy~
"Yeah so unless we think of something soon could I ask a favor. It can wait for now until you guys figure something out or soemthing like that," Roy said finally moving his hand away from his back.
"Ah my right hand hurts. Using that Gale Blade technique kind of hurts me some to."
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 6:15:55 PM: ~Cheska~
"Dead? I don't mind if you say it. I admit I came close, but it was quite peaceful. I thought you were dead yourself. Or at least just disappeared." Cheska smiled to Krysta as she took apart a couple of metallic rods.

shadow5565 Posted 1/20/2008 6:22:05 PM: ~Arke~
"Last time I saw you Krysta was in the Lightning tower! I hope you got stronger cause I did to!" Arke said smiling at the little girl sitting there. 'Better stop smiling, it might creep her out....' He did stop.
Arke sank further down his chair. 'What did Octave mean by I'll die eventually? Wait a minute....was he trying to help me?' He was worried about what he said, feeling bad about Cheska...
'Too many sad moments...'
~Lune~
"This place IS nice Roy!" She said exploring the house. Taking her drink she went upstairs. There were many paintings on the walls up here.
Even one of a little boy about the age of 3....
'Did Roy have a . . . kid?' She wondered staring at the drawing...
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 6:25:46 PM: ~Shinta~
"Sure, Roy, what's the favor?" Shinta grinned, eyeing his sister. He wondered why she was so curious . . . though he could expect that.
~Cheska~
"Tch . . . this isn't going to work." She put back together the parts. If only she could use mana as nerves . . .
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 6:31:15 PM: ~Roy~
"Maybe we should get our priorities straight first. Then if we don't have anything more important I'll tel you guys," Roy said as he moved to stand next to Cheska.
"Hey you should look around at my library or at the library in the castle. There's bound to be something to help you," Roy said examinign the metal arm, "want to hear one of the tales I've got? This one may be even more real then some of my other ones."
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 6:37:17 PM: ~Cheska~
"Yeah, guess I need a little bit of cheering up, unless it's a depressing tale or something to that effect Roy." Cheska smirked, yet still slightly grimacing.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 6:50:01 PM: ~Roy~
"Well this one actually pertains to your metal arm. It may seem a little depressing I think but a I've got a few happy tales too. I'll say those later. Alright children sit down and be quiet because Roy's got a story to tell," Roy said jumping onto a spinning chair he had.
"Once upon a time there was a small boy who was interested in death. He killed things but kept wanting to play with death. Eventually this person became known as the Necromancer. He brought souls back from the dead even bodies. Some say he has an army of the undead ready for the day for him to rise from the shadows."
"Some people say that people have made deals to live forever as the undead. See the Necromancer has a few faces to him. People ask him for favors you see. Some catch him in a good mood others in a bad mood and all of the moods in the circle of emotions. If you catch him in a good mood he might grant you a favor free of charge. In a bad mood he might just turn you into one of his brain dead soldiers."
"Sometimes you have to do a certain chore for him to grant you your favor. But if you fail your soul is his. Back a few years ago I heard the story of an angelus who only had one real limb. All the other limbs were metalic parts. He even had a metalic wing. Well he tracked down the Necromancer which is near impossible."
"He found the Necromancer and asked him for a favor. The Necromancer was in a good mood at the time and allowed the man to have what he wanted. See the Necromancer will give out free favors just to be able to practice his art. The angelus had gone to the Necromancer with three metal limbs and one metal wing. He came out with three flesh limbs and one normal wing."
"I'll spare you the bad stories about the Necromancer. But if you truely want to, we could find the Necromancer or something," Roy said going through five sodas during the story.

LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 6:53:26 PM: ~Cheska~
"Anything to get my arm back . . . but . . . to lose a soul?" Cheska sighed. This was catch 22 for her. She downed another soda.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 6:56:09 PM: ~Roy~
"Either that or you could have a special surgery that puts mana links throughout the metal arm that act like nerves and let you manipulate the mana as if it were your own arm. The only catch in that is that your arm stays metal. I'm jsut giving you options, gee," Roy said reaching for another soda.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 6:59:11 PM: ~Cheska~
"Tch . . . imagine that Roy. Who the hell would even want a shoulder slap or a shake with a metal hand!? Maybe a happy story would cheer me up." Cheska then reached into for an apple.
----------------------------------------------------------------
RusherMan Posted 1/20/2008 7:01:17 PM: "I dunno, Cheska... It seems like a somewhat better alternative to potentially becoming a braindead zombie if you ask me..." said Krysta, still fearing for her friend.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 7:04:14 PM: ~Roy~
"Alright a happy story hmm. Alright how about this, Lune will you marry me," Roy said as Shinta and Arke both drew weapons and Lune looked amazed, "nah just messign with you guys. But that was great."
"Hahahahaha man I wish I had a camera to take a picture of that moment," Roy laughed almost falling out of his chair.
"Alright a happy story, gosh in these times it's kind of hard. Alright there once was..." Roy began, "and they lived happily ever after except for the fact that he had a kidney stone but other than that they lived happily ever after."
"It really makes you wonder what goes through his mind," Shinta sighed. *To find out what happens in Roy's mind go to the blooper reals and look through the last couple of pages*

Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 7:05:03 PM: ~Roy~
"You could go for the surgery first. Then if you feel up to it one day track down the Necromancer," Roy sighed.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 7:09:43 PM: ~Cheska~
"Heh . . ." Cheska really didn't even feel up to be cheered up. She stood after downing her last drink.
"I'm sorry Roy, but do you have a spare bedroom?" She managed to ignore his last few sentences.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 7:32:08 PM: ~Roy~
"Um nnn..." Roy said but thought for a little while, "yeah follow me."
Roy lead Cheska up the stairs. There was another but much smaller living room. They went down a long hallway until they came to a stop with two doors. One was Roy's bedroom and the other was a bathroom. Roy faced the wall that didn't have any doors. He knocked on it and a small keyhole appeared. Roy placed a key there and opened the door.
Roy slowly walked into the room. The room was perfectly clean, in fact there was no sign that angelus had ran sacked the room. Teh rest of the house was clean but there were still some signs left. But this room ahd been untouched.
"Here we are," Roy said witha small smile.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 7:37:15 PM: ~Cheska~
"Thank you, Roy. This is really nice." Cheska breathed silently as she looked around.
"Sorry if I seemed a little irate. I'm just . . . frustrated. I . . ." She sighed, quieting herself.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 7:40:33 PM: ~Roy~
"Just take care of this room. I was saving it for Kai. And I kept it a secret. Here's the key so that you can lock yourself in and stuff. Also there's a hidden window over there that will only appear if you open it," Roy said walkiing out the door.
"If you need something let me know. If you need food or drink alright. Just call," Roy said starting to clsoe the door.

LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 7:47:17 PM: ~Cheska~
"Right. Thank you . . ." She waited until he closed the door.
She was at a loss. She had many mixed emotions, about everything. She wanted to save his little brother.
And to her . . . Roy seemed a little colder. She shrugged it off. Everyone in fact, seemed a little colder except Lune and Krysta.
She flopped on the bed and shut her eyes. 'Maybe I should take things one at a time . . . Think like a treasure hunter . . .'
She took out a parchment from her pocket and laid it out to reveal a half drawn map. She began to fill out the rest with her metal hand.
This will help me pass some time . . .
~Shinta~
"Say, everyone. What's our next plan of action?" Shinta stood from the couch and smiled.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 8:03:10 PM: ~Roy~
"I'd like to go somewhere. I've got something I need to do at a human base. I'll explain later. But if someone has something more important it's fine to. But I think we should wait for Cheska to calm down," Roy said sitting on a chair by the counter.
"She jsut got her arm off and I know it'd take me a while to get used to. She doesn't know what to do so we should wait for her to calm down. Plus I bet Serenity wants to say a thing or two to us. We should spend sometime here I guess. Cheska's in my extra bedroom and I guess Lune or Krysta could have my room. Then the rest of us will sleep on couches or something," Roy said downing another drink.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 8:10:45 PM: ~Shinta~
"Well . . . uh . . . I guess I could go for a little rest. But . . . I donno, I could go for a couple drinks. Wanna come Roy? You and I need to talk anyways." Shinta grinned.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 8:13:17 PM: ~Roy~
"Yeah I'll go for some drinks. But going with me runs the risk of having many people yelling insults and dirty looks. Adn if our talking is about me asking Lune to marry me it was a joke. Alright we don't need to have the big brother groom talk alright save it for Arke," Roy said going towards the door, "but if it's a serious talk you're paying."
"Take care of my house and no wild parties unless I'm here," Roy said as he and Shinta walked out of the house.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 8:15:51 PM: ~Shinta~
"It's definately serious, so it's on me." He said walking down the street. He had his hand through his blue short hair.
"What's bugging you? Seriously . . . you are a bit off as of late."

Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 8:22:09 PM: ~Roy~
"Alright well, I have this thud in my upper right back see. I've had it since birth so I'm used to it. The only time I'm actually kind of worried is when the thud's extremely slow or really fast. For the last few days it's been extremely slow, in fact earlier today it just disappeared for a long time and it's also been extremely fast. That's what's had me on edge," Roy said saying the truth.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 8:25:48 PM: ~Shinta~
"Aw, man, that's it? Pfft . . . that's no fun at all. Oh well. Hey, with my help, we'll save him no problem! But I still owe you the drinks. You sure nothing else is on your mind? I was looking forward to a lengthy conversation," Shinta shook his head and grinned.
----------------------------------------------------------------
shadow5565 Posted 1/20/2008 8:26:26 PM: ~Arke~
'Now I have to talk to Shinta when i marry, Lune? God this day keeps on getting more and more depressing...' Arke looked out the window to see the moon straight above them. Midnight.
"So guys....do you have anything to pass the time? I mean until Roy and Shinta come back." He put his hand to his chin.
"I got an idea! How about we go outside and you can show us your new spirits, Krysta."
~Lune~
"Sure. Anything to get my mind off what Roy just said." Lune walked out of the apartment waiting for Arke and Krysta.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 8:31:27 PM: ~Roy~
"No nothing at all unless ya know. How about Lune and Arke's wedding that could be coming up sooner or later. I already called dibs on best man. So how are you goign to give Arke the big brother talk. The classic if you hurt my sister I'll hunt you down and kill you or something else," Roy said laughing aht the look that came across Shinta's face.
"But yeah I know where he is but it's pretty risky. But I've got most of it figured out. But hey open conversation," Roy said changing the conversation over and over.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 8:35:58 PM: ~Shinta~
He really wanted to ask, he really did . . . but he felt that was up to his younger sister.
"Uh . . . yeah, guess I'll have to be a good man for the wedding . . . even if I am sometimes jealous. Sometimes I wish I could have a girl in my life, but I feel that's not too important at the time." Now they were at the bar, both men being served drinks.

LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 8:45:39 PM: ~Cheska~
It was quiet inside the house. Cheska listened to hear everyone outside . . . or at least a couple people. She turned invisible.
'Sorry, got to run a trial.' Cheska walked to where Roy pointed and touched it, causing it to open. Right before all of this, she packed, carrying medicine. She even stole a couple maps from Roy's stash. She knew she was foolish . . . but she had to prove everyone she wasn't weak.
She climbed out the window and followed the map to find treasure.
'To the Tower of Dem . . . I know what's there. Usually you have a treasure-hunting partner, but I have no Zieo. Sorry, I would fail as an apprentice if I don't pass this. Besides, I have to get over my arm. I'll be back by morning, everyone.'
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 8:47:55 PM: ~Roy~
"It's never to late. You know just don't go for someone in your age group. Their either your sister, dead, or wrinkly. Another round please. But yeah so what else do you got on your mind. Hey another round please!" Roy said.
"Sorry but my son and grandchild died because of you," the bartender said.
"It wasn't my fault and it was almost 7 years ago," Roy said.
"Just finsih your drink pay and go," the bartender said.
"Fine, Shinta I'm out," Roy said going towards the door.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 8:49:50 PM: ~Shinta~
'Tch . . .' Shinta stood for a phew moments in thought, watching Roy. He then leapt at the tender and threw a punch, shouting, "CAN'T YOU GIVE HIM A CHANCE!?"
----------------------------------------------------------------

Roy looked back as he opened the door.
"Shinta lighten up alright. I'm going out. I'll be home late. If Krysta or Lune stay in my room make sure they don't touch anything important. Later," Roy said unsealing his wings and flying off.
"Damnit what are they doing to him. The thuding was so fast it got my heart rate going through the roof," Roy said flying around, "I'll have to work on a plan to get him back. That place will be hard to get into."
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 9:08:46 PM: ~Shinta~
"Sounds like the band is starting to fall apart . . ." Shinta frowned as he took flight back home.
"Hey guys, Cheska sleeping? Roy decided to fly off for the night."
~Cheska~
'Tower of Rem, once again. That nearly rhymes. Anyways to work. When I find all this treasure, I hope everyone will be happy.' The girl inspected the map after just arriving through an airship ride. She hid there in the airship, not at all paying the fee. She should have stolen Zieo for company.
'Everyone . . . Maybe everyone is PMSing.' She laughed to herself.
Now to work.
She entered the tower with her bow on her back. She began to climb the second floor . . .

"I don't think she's asleep. We've been out here watching what Krysta can do with her summon spirits." Lune said answering Shinta.
~Arke~
"How about we go check on her and then go to sleep? You know how hard it is to fly all the way up here and then die?"
"You must have been unconscious at the time, Arke. You . . . didn't die...." Lune corrected.
"Ya see? Thats how tired I am." Arke laughed softly.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 9:19:44 PM: ~Roy~
Roy quietly landed on a village several miles from the Dyecroft. He walked around feeling more welcome there then he did at the Dyecroft. "And here I was thinking that bars were the only place a guy like me could feel at home. Oh well I've got planning and shopping to do," Roy said walking around until he found a bar.
He walked in ordered a drink and sat at a back booth. Roy reached into his bag and pulled out a map. He opened it and started to look over it. He went through several drinks as he wrote down items he would need. Eventually he had a list of items.
'Can't shop at the Dyecroft. Even at a Black Market there will raise suspicion,' Roy thought as he paid.
He walked around until he finally found a place that could sell him the items he needed. Roy bagged the things and left the village. He unsealed his wings and flew up in towards the Dyecroft.
"This better work," he said landing ouside his house.
He unlocked the door. It was already late. Everyone was asleep by the looks of it. Roy walked around. He wanted to sleep in his room but there was a chance that Lune or Krysta was in there. Roy sat down on a couch and tried to go to sleep.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 9:29:49 PM: ~Shinta~
Shinta snored . . . and pretty loudly, thinking Cheska was home and sleeping anyways. Like unbearably loudly. That was pretty much his night, right there . . .
~Cheska~
"There, second floor, catalogued, treasure gathered." She took up a pack she found lying on the ground in the tower and stuffed her contents.
'Third floor, I guess now.' She even took down a few monsters, honed her arm. She knew it was rather comfortable in attacks, for she could not feel a bite or scratch on it.
She had to make everyone proud.
Thus, she made her way to the third floor, though she had about 24k gald worth of items.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 9:39:41 PM: ~Roy~
It was almost three at night and Roy still hadn't fallen asleep. He was sleeping on the first floor with Shinta and Orpheus. Drake, Reyson, and Krysta were on the living room at the next floor. Lune was in his room and Roy thought Cheska was in Kai's future room.
"Stupid Shinta snoring so ******* loud," Roy said standing up and walkign over to Shinta.
He grabbed an empty bottle of wine. He took the cork and shoved it in Shinta's open mouth.
"Ugh even at night they don't lighten up on you bro. Maybe I should unpack. No, why would I'll likely get run otu of here. It's just because of who I'm with that they haven't kickd me out yet. At least Zieo can sleep," Roy sighed.
He walked around the room. Eventually he went outside and flew up onto the roof. He sat there looking up at the moon and stars.
"Do you have a window in you room Kai? Can you see the moon and stars? If you can that's good we're both seeing the same thing then huh bro," Roy said just sitting there.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 9:49:55 PM: ~Cheska~
"DONE!! Phew!!!" Cheska smiled at her findings. Now for that sparring session...
She returned around three that morning, thinking she was alone. If Roy were to find out he would wring her neck for stealing the maps. Her feet squeaked on the grassy ground, fresh with mist.

Roy quickly moved and looked down at the area. He saw someone and grabbed the person. He looked and saw it was Cheska. Roy let go over her.
"I'm so sorry I'm on edge today. Wait there you go?" Roy said seeing Cheska's full pakc.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 9:57:18 PM: ~Cheska~
"It's okay, I have been too. I went to do everyone a favor. I went treasure hunting and explore two more floors of the Tower of Rem. I have about 64k in gald now, to help everyone." Cheska set down the pack.
"I just don't want to feel like a lead wait any longer. Besides, I have to uphold apprenticeship."
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 10:01:52 PM: ~Roy~
"64k! Just from two floors of the Tower of Rem! Holy crap! That's amazing! Yeah you're definately my apprentice," Roy said hugging Cheska, "64k I'm lucky to get about 15k or so on an average ruins."
"So um how's the arm," Roy said finally letting go.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 10:07:13 PM: ~Cheska~
She blushed for a couple moments but returned to her normal state.
"The arm . . . I'll need it to fight . . . though I would love one of flesh, mind you. Trust me, it's really hard to touch to reassure someone. What do you think? To fight . . . or not to fight with it? Oh . . . and don't hate me for this . . . but I stole a couple maps of yours."
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 10:15:46 PM: ~Roy~
"If you want to fight fight with it. But if you really need to reasure someone just use your other hand. Plus it's kind of cool in that kind of freaky way. And I odn't mind that you stole some of my maps, unless they were the extremely fragile ones. Just put them back plus you're my apprentice I guess. Could I borrow some of that money you got," Roy said.
"There are still some provisions I need to get before we go after Kai. Oh and Shinta knows about Kai now. Uhh I need to figure something out. I can't stay here on the Dyecroft. But I'll have to when I get Kai here Yulia this sucks," Roy said, "want to fly up on the rooftop or something or do you just want to go to bed."

"Rooftop sounds nice... and you can half about half of it really. I don't care. I plan to split all of it . . . So he does know huh? Guess we should have tea over this one, eh? And maybe a little sparring after. But you're right about the arm. I guess, once you lose it, it's not so bad . . ." She smiled more to herself.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 10:31:23 PM: ~Roy~
"Tea and sparring on a roof top at 3 in the morning wow that's wierd but not a complete turn off. I'm kidding. But are you sure you want to spar now. I'm still kind of exhausted from our fight with Octave today," Roy said grabbing Cheska around the waist.
Roy quickly unsealed his wings and before long tehy were on the roof top. Roy jumped down and in about five minutes he came back with a thermos and two cups. Roy poured the cups and laid down on the roof.
"So what's up?" Roy said trying to drink his tea trying to not pour it on himself.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 10:39:11 PM: ~Cheska~
"Yea, I know it sounds funny, but I enjoy it." She smiled at Roy, accepting the thermos.
"Exactly like the first time you made it. Boy, who would have thought it was awhile back. And we don't have to spar. To tell you the truth, I'm still a little shocked from that fight. Not fun dying. Oh and it's not bad, to tell you the truth. So you really don't care for Dyecroft? Maybe someday you can change people's minds!"
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 10:45:12 PM: ~Roy~
"It was a while back wasn't it. I actually like this place it's got a good view of the sky and the region. I'll have to live here with Kai while I figure out what to do with him. But if I can cure him I'll probably move away," Roy said spilling the tea over himself, "crap."
"I've never died before so you know I don't know how you feel. But you're lucky yyou say you're useless sometimes but most civilians would live through having their arm severed. Your much stronger than any normal civilian. I think I'm a waste here too sometimes but I give it my all. You know something else you could do with your arm. Why don't you hide stuff in there and stuff. You never know it might come in handy," Roy said cleaning off his sticky face.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 10:49:41 PM: ~Cheska~
"Roy, you're a genius!!! I could implement weapons into my arm. That would catch most off guard or kill them. Haha, so when you save Kai it would be all over for you? You live happily ever after, that type of ending?" Cheska thought of it herself. What was she to do really?

"Not exactly. Yeah I want to save Kai, but I've still got some duty with you guys. I'll leave him here for them to look after him. If I can figure out the soul surgery thing I'll do that to. But happily ever after isn't my type of story. I'd still keep treasure hunting. If Kai was healthy I'd ask someone I trust to look after him," Roy said sitting up.
"Plus you're my apprentice right. I've jsut shown you some of the ropes. I mean think of all the ropes of treasure hunting like all the ropes in the moutain climbing store. I'd still like to see what the rest of the group is doing. I doubt this stand still between angelus and humans would last. I was in a town today and I heard someone say that a new angelus tracker device was made, a protable one. So even on the ground it might not be safe."
"The day I have my happily ever after is when I end up killing myself from over doing it all the time," Roy said extremely casually.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 11:04:30 PM: ~Cheska~
The woman downed the rest of her tea and smiled.
"Hey, don't think like that. And don't worry. I'm a healer, after all. My medicine heals most, if not all. Even though you're my apprentice under that." Cheska yawned a little.
"It's strange really . . . a war between angelus and humans . . . I guess I'm branded, for liking an angelus. But it didn't matter anyways. I'm an outsider and I live practically a shed." She couldn't help but laugh as she handed him some water from her pack.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 11:16:53 PM: ~Roy~
"I'm not traking sides. But if I had to I'd pick angelus even if they hate me. The thing is humans are purposely making angelus suffer. Yeah so I'm my apprentice's apprentice and vice versa, that's kind of funny," Roy said taking the water and cleaning off his face.
"I wonder what we'll do now. Will Serenity give us a big job or something. Or will she banish me and spit at my request to keep Kai here. Because if she does she better watch her back or I'd kill her probably. If any of you angelus are spying on us that was a joke," Roy said looking around.
"Teh one thing about this war one side has to lose. But in the angelus case they jsut really ahve to lose their leader. There still might be hope for the angelus if Serenity kicked the bucket," Roy said putting his hand on his back.
----------------------------------------------------------------
LennaSuzaka Posted 1/20/2008 11:22:26 PM: ~Cheska~
She yawned once more.
"This is becoming too complicated. You know, maybe you shouldn't have saved me back then at the bar. Though I was being cocky . . . I . . . guess I need your help. Why were you so interested in playing freakin' hero?" She laid herself on the roof now, gazing at the stars.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kieo1 Posted 1/20/2008 11:28:50 PM: ~Roy~
"When I see a beautiful lady in distress or anyone really it's an impulse. Comes with having a little brother whose well you know. Alright your tired I'm tired let's go to bed. If I remember correctly I can open the window in your room from the outside. Hold up," Roy said flying down and opening the window.
"Alright milady I'll carry you to your window," Roy said grabbing Cheska.
He slowly flew down until they were by the window. After some awkward moments of finding a way for Cheska to get into the window she was finally in.
"Take care of that room alright. Well good night," Roy said floating outside the window.
