Niwa's Recent News
  • 19 April 2015 -- Niwa is under new management!

    Niwa is now under new management as we strive to stand up the the standards of fun and entertaining roleplaying we have so far provided here at Niwa. Today makes the start of a campaign to bring in new members as Head Admin Akaiken and Support Admin Sparky work together to improve and uphold the current face of Niwa and keep us all moving forward!

They said this was a city for our kind, they said it was a safe haven from the rest of the world. This was suppose to be the city where we where safe from regular humans. But, in a city where Meta-Humans run rampant, is there such thing as safety? When taking what you want is as simple as waving your hand, or closing your eyes, how can there be law? In this city, the truth is there is only one source of law, and that are the different criminal organizations that have formed all around us. The only order is that of the darkest part of humanity, of criminal organizations where the strong thrive while the weak gasp for air. This is Niwa Nights.. This is our home.

Can you survive it?

Aftermath; Open to Skulk/friends of Aiko

How long had it been since the incident at the church? Haru was fine now, if a bit shaken up. The skulk involved had run back to hiding in the park to lick their wounds. And Aiko had one big wound to lick.

Amber was gone.

After breaking into the church, everything was more confusing to the girl. Haru was released, one of the cultists was dead, and the others were attacking the priest, at first verbally, then violently. The Skulks ran out of the church, leaving the cultists behind and breathing fresh air. Upon seeing Haru untied in the air, Aiko settled, and was able to truly focus on the skulks there. She recalled the reason she wanted to follow the dead girl to begin with, and wondered if she should apologize then...

But then she really looked around. Alk, Haru...where...where was Amber?

Flashes of what she had done, gunning down though who approached her...and one of those who had came from behind her...was Amber.

She'd let out a wounded howl, and ran to where her girl lay, blood pooling on the grass and dirt below her...

The white haired curl, began to cry, falling to the ground and holding her dead girlfriend close. She couldn't recall if Haru, or Alk had come after her. She didn't remember anything, besides pain, and misery. She eventually fell asleep, curled up to the slowly cooling body of her half panther formed girlfriend.

the next morning, she carried the body back with her. Amber was larger, and therefore heavier than the tiny Aiko. Even so, she walked forward, stumbling, and wobbling. Her tears were dried to her face, and her face was frozen. Her dark eyes were life-less at this point, and she didn't look at anyone.

She took her to a small corner of the camp, near to the tent they had shared. Behind the body was a large white rock. She put Amber on the ground, and went back to their tent. She returned, shovel in hand, and began to dig. She dug for hours, wanting the hole to be deep enough. She hadn't said a word, just working. Eventually, she dug a hole that she barely was able to climb out of. She struggled out, and picked her girlfriend's body up, only to slowly slide into the hole again. She gently lay her girlfriend down.

Aiko said only a few quiet words to the grave, "I loved you...and trusted you...and I betrayed you...I...I'm sorry...Amber..." She bit her lip, shutting her eyes tightly. She began to bury the corpse, each shovelful of dirt making a thud as they hit bottom.

Once the grave was filled, the still quiet Aiko walked back to her tent to gather her paints, and brought them out ot the giant stone by the grave. Rather than making it obvious a body was there, in case someone tried to remove Amber, Aiko began to paint her. First, as the fiercely protective panther anyone who threatened the Skulk knew. Then, as the soft, easy to laugh, shy girl that Aiko loved. The moment she was done, she fell to her knees, and cried. Her forehead leaned on the rock, and she broke down. Eventually, realizing it was late at night, Aiko got to her feet, and collapsed in the tent she and Amber had shared.

She didn't leave it. Aiko remained there, dealing with the nightmares when slept, and staring at the place Amber used to sleep in every night...

She didn't eat. Nor drink.

Aiko, already thin due to poorness, and frail since birth, was wasting away...

"You walk in on a wolf man on top of a small girl and swearing at her to take it, and you spill your resume. Cute." Miranda had been walking up, an intended visit after having heard about Amber's death. "I suppose asking how the kid is doing is a bit pointless. Who's the new guy?" She asked, pointing to the kid showing respect to the panther girl's grave.

She wasn't acting very threatening, but her hands were inches from the pistols strapped to her thighs under her dress. If this guy was after them for some reason, she was ready to protect her former gang. "This is a group of kids just trying to survive. the only time we crack heads is when someone fucks with us."

Aiko waited, giving up. He was going to force this into her, wasting this food on her traitorous bag of bones...she couldn't fight that. Not while she was pinned like this anyways...when he left, and she was alone...then she could slip away...

She still wanted to try and talk him out of it, though it's not like and the wolf boy ever saw eye to eye though. "Ezo...what's the point of keeping me alive...use that food on more valuable Skulk members...all I did was paint. I didn't contribute. Like you said...I can't even patrol on my own with...without..." She couldn't say her name, her entire body tensing up, eyes shutting tight and tears leaking down well established streaks of clean on her face.

Suddenly, Ezo called out to someone, or something outside the tent. She couldn't tell someone was there, but he had better senses than her. The new person responded, seeming unaware of the situation going on inside the tent...though...Ezo had hardly changed his volume being just as loud. Maybe he had just arrived...

Another voice, a female one. Just over Ezo's shoulder she saw a familiar face-the ex-skulk who came to visit once before when she was on patrol. She didn't know Miranda well, but she recognized the face.

"Just go away..."

“Fucker! I don’t fucking care! If you want to fucking join us, go see fucking Vesper. She`s the cunt leading the fucking thing.” Ezo snarled out at the man, without looking at him. He was pissed as he kept jamming food in Aiko`s mouth. He was not in sight, so he wasn`t seeing what he was doing to Aiko. Ezo was very stubborn. He was sworn to protect the Skulk, there was a dying skulk right here.

“The fuck is wrong with you?!” He yelled at Aiko. “I’m not letting you fucking die if I can do anything to stop you! I won’t let anyone die! If anyone is dying, It`s fucking me! Not fucking you! You’re liked. You’re fucking sweet, and you’re cheerful. Your art, I think is crap, but the others fucking like it! Don’t be fucking like that! Fucking fight! What would fucking Amber say if she saw you fucking around like that?! Huh?!” Ezo was getting extremely aggravated by her lame status. This was his idea of a pep talk. He sucked at tact.

“Fucking new guy waltzes the fuck in.” Ezo replied at Miranda. “Stop cunting around, you fucking Chink! Help gme get some fucking food in her! Fucking look at her! You’re a fucking cunt, try using your fucking mouth on this one. I`ll handle the fucking new guy!” Ezo snarled jamming more food down her throat.

"I have walked in on much stranger things lady. I figured that if you guys are as good friends and as tight a group as I hear I wouldn't have to worry about it. And pouncing on someone who's part of a large group without the full story could be quite suicidal. I like living, I don't know if its because I'm good at it or if I'm just used to it but I think I owe it to people for putting up with me." Feng replied to Miranda. He was starting to think that this was a bit of a fruitless effort. He wasn't expecting open arms by a long shot but this wasn't really the kind of heat he was expecting either.

"Chink? Me or the girl ?" Feng asks, his head tilted questioningly. "I don't know what I should be offended by yet dude. I'd love to talk to your boss when I can but this seems... a bit more important. Don't know if I could help out any, but if I can let me know." he said with a positive smile. He then turned it to a frown and shook his head." If not, I totally get it, I just got here, don't know the story, yadda yadda yadda. But I'd rather not leave until I shoot the shit with whoever is in charge. But I am not looking forward to calling up "Becky" if I need to get in a scrap to do so. So please humor me and play it cool. Don't want more tension then what's already here am I right? Sounds like enough pain's been going around."

Feng did not want to start a fight or get caught up in the wolf's way. But he wanted to at least come out with something. If he was not welcome than he wanted to hear it from their boss. Vesper, he heard the guy say her name was. If he was going to be told to piss off he wanted to hear it from someone who actually held authority. He'd rather not fight an animal man but he would if he had to. He hoped it wouldn't come to it. The threat of injury was one reason but also, it would show some really poor character in them. Not being civil with a potential recruit and neglecting a friend of theirs who clearly needs some help. He had hoped to find a tight knit group that looked out for each other.

(Miranda's pistols are concealed, he would not be able to see them.)

Good old Ezo, swearing even when showing compassion. He was a hopeless asshole but he cared. "He means me, kiddo. I work for some... chinese people." She turned her attention back to what was happening in the tent, nodding. "I'll see what I can do for her, poor kid doesn't know what to do with herself." To accidentally kill the one you love... it must be hard.

As Ezo left the tent, Miranda's more soothing voice replaced Ezo's harsh, violent voice. "Look, Aiko. I know you don't know me very well, but I know what happened with your girlfriend. I know what led up to it. It was dark out, you were under attack, and you couldn't see. What you did for her, that grave, was more than anyone else out there was willing to give her. She wouldn't want you to wither and die, I know that just from meeting her a couple times. She protected you with her life, are you going to make her death in vain?"

Aiko, coughed out the last spoonful of food Ezo had shoved in her mouth, and didn't bother wiping her face clean. She looked at the woman with dead eyes, the dark pupils boring into hers, and unblinking for the most part. It was quieter, at least. And like any adult, she started spewing off about the small tiny amounts of good she did. Her eyes rolled to face the tent wall, and her tears dried in place.

"Mi..Miranda....do you really...know the full story? I was cut. A single slice, that could have hit my heart...and it's as if it did. It cut me off from sense, from pain, from everything. I went...I was....I was in a frenzy...it's happened before...I shot another girl once...because she destroyed my paints..."

Aiko's face screwed up in a mixture of pain, and anger, and just pure anguish, and her fists clenched. When she next spoke, her voice began to raise in volume, and pitch, getting more shrill.

"If I...if I could do that to her...to person who I truly l-loved...then...then what's stopping me from killing anyone here...killing everyone I love, and care about?! It's all my fault! And I can't let that happen! Amber is DEAD. She's gone, I ended her, and I could end everyone here if something even small made me berserk again...I'm more afraid of myself, than even Ezo! I can't take being a threat to everyone here, to my family, to the ones who made me feel home like my blood family never did. I CAN'T BE THE CAUSE OF THEIR DEATHS!"

"Just...no one else....please..."

After shouting the last part, her body shuddered like she was sobbing, but still, she spoke. It was quieter again though. "B-but...I don't even have the courage....to end my own life..."

She chuckled in her agony, though it sounded like a sob, "I'm so pathetic..."

"So please...let me be...you don't even know me...and if you love Vesper, and Ezo, and the Skulk as I do...then...just let me go..."

Ezo was trying so hard not to bark back at Aiko. She’s being a dumb cunt over the whole fucking situation. She speaks as if she did it intentionally. It was a fucking mistake, you fucking move on, and that`s fucking it! Ezo took a deep breath and handed Miranda the food. He looked straight at her.

“And you, when you`re fucking here, you’re a fucking Skulk. I don’t care if you’re a fucking Chink too. You still have our scent unlike that retard you opened your legs to. Some magic cunt you have, you fucking leave, and he betrays the shit out of us. The fucker.” He said with a snarl. He was going to trust Miranda to help Aiko. He knew Miranda really well; she was one of the few that could actually keep up with Ezo parkour-wise; and you could tell they spend some time together, as his language had rubbed off on her. Though she was a bit nasty to begin with…

Ezo approached Feng, baring his teeth and growling. Ezo hated intruders. Even more those that smelled like cops, and he had their scent. He kept himself a few feet away. His hands were to his side, his fingers moving around, as he didn`t hide his claws. “So what the fuck can you do again? I wasn`t fucking listening with that dumb cunt refusing to eat; if you can pull your fucking weight, I`m sure the retarded cunt Vesper will let you in. She fucking lets anyone in, but I don’t fucking trust you. You smell like cop. I`ll give you the fucking chance to explain why you have the smell of the police on you!”

Ezo snarled waiting his answer. Although… he really got ticked off by Aiko as he turned around to yell at her.

“FUCKING DUMBASS! ACCIDENT, IT WAS AN ACCIDENT. GET IT THROUGH YOUR ASS AND INTO YOUR HEAD! IT HAPPENED, YOU`RE SAD, FUCKING MOVE ON!”

“Cop?” Feng asked, one eyebrow raised quizzically. “Oh! You mean Becky.” Feng reached for his messenger bag. He unzipped it and took out “Becky”, his police baton. An old souvenir, it was now painted a glittery dark green paint, carefully carved into the baton were figures of dragons smoking cigarettes and blowing fire on the ass of a police officer. Engraved was the name Becky. Feng did not know why he named it that. It just seemed like a good idea at the time. “This the scent?” he asked with a light smile.

“Breaking into school records to change grades, bootleg games cheap that work like the retail version, free internet, I can do that and more. Perfect for making extra yen to spend.I can also break out of just about any restraints. Helpful if someone is arrested and I'm around to help.”

Feng all of a sudden went into a handstand and then did a backflip. He then spun his head around fully two times and wrapped his arms around his torso several times as he ducked his head under his legs, spine completely twisted. He then completely reverted to his natural shape in seconds. "I can do that also."

Miranda cocked her arm back, and slapped the shit out of the whiny teenager before shoving a spoonful in her mouth. "Shut up, I watched my own parents die right in front of me while I hid like a coward but I'm still alive today. Why? Because they would have wanted me to survive. Do you think Amber wants you to do? Do you accuse such a sweet, loving girl of wanting someone she loved to die over an accident? Straighten your shit out or Amber will have died for nothing. She fought to protect you and Haru, she died protecting her friends. Are you going to insult her last action by causing her to fail?"

Aiko's eyes darkened the moment Miranda's hand touched her face. They may have been lack luster before, but now it was as if they held nothing inside them at all. The same, mechanical numbness poured over Aiko, and she didn't hear a single word the other girl said. She simply became like those before. A target. She swallowed the food.

She wobbly pushed herself to her feet, using Miranda's own shoulder as a lever. For all appearances, it looked as though the Triad had finally gotten to Aiko, making her move. The hand moved from the woman's shoulder, to her neck, and her other hand followed. Aiko began to squeeze, lifeless eyes staring into Miranda's, tears still leaking down her cheeks.

Aiko, however, didn't have the strength to really do much damage, given as she hadn't eaten anything in the past couple of days, and to begin with she was weaker person. She couldn't stop her body.
