OOC: Well, every contest needs someone to finish last, normally nobody volunteers, but we've managed to convince Stag! Now nobody need worry about finishing last, because Stag asked to! :D

OOC: I don't know how to feel right now......... :p

OOC: Don't forget that Jon and Orchid are already there:p

Also, I thought there could be a rockfall once everyone is in, so no outside! There will still be holes in the rock though, so you have light, and air. Just an idea.if it's a series of tunnels then anypoint is an entry point. and are you planning on Sealing us inside?

You can always make it an underground Grotto... trees, lakes... and for light, the D&D ever present phosphorous Lichen....

How about a hotel- Maison paradise...
Nah, too snobby
Hmm, Guest house paradiso?
Nah, too taken
Club Paradiso ressurecti?
Nah, too latin
Club valhalla?
Nah, too saxon
Paradise Cove?
I give up. Its too hard :(

OOC: What, nobody likes club valhalla? :D

well what ever you decide, it was a pleasure knowing you.

the same to you, as well.

*she nods*

ooc: hey, if my character dies in this club... can I still have her in the new RP... lol...

OOC: What, nobody like club valhalla? :D
Could be The Caves of Valhalla.....

OOC: What, nobody likes club valhalla? :Dreading your suggestion made me think... everyone creates new personnas and we get a High School...


but the hilarity of High School students going on line to RP in a High School made me fall off of my chair... :D

OOC: How about the Elysian Caves, because an entire tribe is buried there, and the Greeks believed that when you die you go to the Elysian Fields. Plus its a cool name!:p

'Think about it? Its a plan, you dont think about it, you just follow it. Although I think you may have pinpointed what I lack in plan making' he grinned

*she laughs.*

getting that down may solve your problem with plan-making... :p

*she nods, still grinning.*

OOC: How about the Elysian Caves, because an entire tribe is buried there, and the Greeks believed that when you die you go to the Elysian Fields. Plus its a cool name!:p

ooc: I like that.... but can I keep Noire if she dies? :p

ooc: I like that.... but can I keep Noire if she dies? :p
ooc: Well..... there's normally some 50 PCers who can heal people, so if you can convince one of them to revive Noire, then yes.

OOC: Well I have to go, I need sleeep, and usually I stop at 9. You think thin people with fast metabolisms have it easy? No way, we need to sleep way more :D

OOC: Well I have to go, I need sleeep, and usually I stop at 9. You think thin people with fast metabolisms have it easy? No way, we need to sleep way more :D

ooc: bye stag

Well thanks to Gael and Alistor Stag's ancestor, its a leetle hard to kill him, but all will be explained my little noseminers :D Seeya all later

OOC: Well I have to go, I need sleeep, and usually I stop at 9. You think thin people with fast metabolisms have it easy? No way, we need to sleep way more :D
OOC
Waves......see ya.....

*His pathethic composted form is now seemingly crawling, up and down the cliffs and newly formed hills, towards the club.

It's gone....it's gone....I bet those dudes finished off.

*He reaches the height of a ridge, giving him a clear view of the club.*

What! It's still standing?..... Ugh, I shouldn't get my hopes up, it hurts too much.

*straightens himself up and strides into the club*

OOC: Well I have to go, I need sleeep, and usually I stop at 9. You think thin people with fast metabolisms have it easy? No way, we need to sleep way more :Dnight stags..

OOC: How about the Elysian Caves, because an entire tribe is buried there, and the Greeks believed that when you die you go to the Elysian Fields. Plus its a cool name!:p
OOC
That is quite cool.....

OOC: Just thought I'd pop in. Is the world gone yet?

OOC: Just thought I'd pop in. Is the world gone yet?

ooc: No, not yet, Jhen says that the main attack will be this coming weekend.

OOC: Gotta run... don't no one die yet you hear... errr... planners, add an "again" to that...

ooc: No, not yet, Jhen says that the main attack will be this weekend.
OOC: So what's happening? I tried to keep up, but it's hard if you don't participate to keep up the interest. :(

OOC: Just thought I'd pop in. Is the world gone yet?
OOC
Waves...Hi there....

OOC: So what's happening? I tried to keep up, but it's hard if you don't participate to keep up the interest. :(
OOC: The worlds about to end and we're discussing the next club. Quite a few seem to be in favour of Jon and Orchids current hiding place, a cave. Only there'll be an entire network, with underground lakes, tunnels etc....
So far we've come up with Elysian Caves for a name, until someone finds something better.

OOC: Gotta run... don't no one die yet you hear... errr... planners, add an "again" to that...

ooc: later, Ju.

OOC: So what's happening? I tried to keep up, but it's hard if you don't participate to keep up the interest. :(

ooc: Sorry, if I am speaking for other people, but...Jon and Orchid have left the club. While in the main RP...Jhen is back, along with Atreyu. There is fight over four elemental tokens, while Jhen is trying to destroy the club and the people inside...those who don't join his people. I am literally a dead man walking...and last night Baker came back.

*Jon glanced cautiously over to the corner, where the light didn't seem to flicker. Instead, darkness.....*
Orchid? What does that look like to you? The light isn't flickering on that section, meaning there probably isn't a wall there....

OOC: Gotta run... don't no one die yet you hear... errr... planners, add an "again" to that...

ooc: I am already half way there. There is a large hole in my torso :p

OOC: Hey Orchid *waves back*

So.... suppose I come back, what would I find?

OOC: How about the Elysian Caves, because an entire tribe is buried there, and the Greeks believed that when you die you go to the Elysian Fields. Plus its a cool name!:p
anything that similar to my name is god with me :p

OOC: Hey Orchid

So.... suppose I come back, what would I find?

ooc: What happened to your pirate with that parrot?

OOC: Hey Orchid

So.... suppose I come back, what would I find?
ooc: All hell breaking loose, to put it shortly.

*Pulls a burning branch from the fire, and takes it over to where Jon is pointing....*

I think it is an opening.....

ooc: What happened to your pirate with that parrot?
OOC: He sailed away...... Nah. I got bored with that one. Couldn't make him interesting. :(

And I'll think I'll just come back later after all this.... Maybe with a different character, maybe with the same..... I don't know yet.

Stay alive everyone! :fluffle:

OOC: Hey Orchid *waves back*

So.... suppose I come back, what would I find?
OOC
As I see it, there is not much left to come back to...... :(

*Pulls a burning branch from the fire, and takes it over to where Jon is pointing....*

I think it is an opening.....
Wow, so it is. Right, lets have breakfast, then off for a spot of exploring. Actually, lets go back to Paradise Club, get some appropriate equipment, torches etc... then come back and start exploring.

Wow, so it is. Right, lets have breakfast, then off for a spot of exploring. Actually, lets go back to Paradise Club, get some appropriate equipment, torches etc... then come back and start exploring.
Good idea....

*Opens the hamper...*

this food is getting a bit boring now anyway.....and maybe we can bring some of the others back here to help.....

ooc: We now have beautiful cliffs, rocky terrain, every kind of precipitation you could think of, all at once, regular earthquakes, spewing lava, except the forest is now burnt to a crisp. These natural wonders are beautiful, terrifying but beautiful. Why wouldn't a person, who wishes to die, stay?

*crawls out of the narrow entrance and into the sunlight, helping Orchid out as well*
Right, car over there, PC over there somewhere, lets drive!
*gets into the drivers seat of Tinks's car* (ooc: Sorry Tinks, you left it here!:()

*Squinting against the bright sunlight, Orchid climbs into the car beside Jon....*

*Squinting against the bright sunlight, Orchid climbs into the car beside Jon....*
.....
*half an hour later*
.....
Anybody home to recieve two weary travellers?

ooc: I have to go; later all.

ic: *she finishes her drink, then stands up from her seat on the couch. her fingers are itching for a chance to use her blades; get rid of the anxiety that had been building up the past nights. her eyes glow a pale blue.*

work calls...

*unsheathing her katanas, she strides out the door.*

*Holding tightly hand in hand, they walk into a very changed PC....*

Hello...any one here?

*Holding tightly hand in hand, they walk into a very changed PC....*

Hello...any one here?

*she smiles at the couple as she walks out the door.*

I'm leaving just now, but there may be others about to help you.

*she nods and continues on her way, katanas in hand.*

*she smiles at the couple as she walks out the door.*

OOC
Byr then...

IC
Look Jon...a nice soft couch......

*Sits down, and in a few minutes she fall into an exhausted sleep.*

OOC
Night anyone left here..... :fluffle:

Night Jon..... :fluffle:

*goes and lies next to Orchid, and is asleep within minutes*
Night everyo.....zzzzzzzz....


ooc: Night all!

*deep in the lair underground, rocked by earthquakes and heated by lava, and with tentacles moving everywhere, escpecially around a certain cylinder in the middle of the room*

Sooooon, the preeeepeeeeraaatiiioooon wiiiill beee cooooompleeeete, and myyyyy graaaand plaaaan wiiiill beeee ooooneeee steeep clooooseeer tooooo cooompleeetiiiooon.

Ah, RA, good to see you, do you know anything more about the current situation?

Ah, RA, good to see you, do you know anything more about the current situation?

(OoC)sry had to do sumthin
IC: to tell you the truth I haven't been on in a couple days so....no

Where is everybody?

Where is everybody?

once again i don't know
*gets a glass and puors himself a screwdriver*
want one?

Nah, I'll stick with combustibel Concoction.
*drinks a whole gallon of it*

Now, to wait for the firestorm...

yeah........you go do that

*finishes his first one and makes a second one looking around the room*

i'll check back a bit later
*walks out*

Mind looking for the rest of the gang?
*a firestorm erupts from its mout and engulfs the bar*

Walks up only to find the Bar Engulfed in Flames... *rolls up a fat one and lights it off a burning stick of wood from the bar* and then uses his magic to put the fire out and reset everything to normal... there no more Firestorm... *Finishes the fatty and then stubles into the bar extremly stoned* HELOOOO anyone around?

*Wanders down the stairs irritably and waves a hand, extinguishing the flames.*

Where is everyone?

Damned if I know.

*Reaches behind the bar for a bottle of rum*

*wakes up*

greetings all.

"I only care where one person is right now..." Baker said as he walked into the bar. "Where is he Gael? I know he's not just with you, he's manifested somewhere...and you're going to tell me where."

*Chooses not to piss gael off" and just recommends that you leave the bar ASAP because you piss her off and god help you cuz she's a force to be reckoned with

*The soft glow of her eyes hardened at seeing Baker, a reaction which seemed to compliment the rest of her altered form. She sighed and took a drink of the rum.*

He is where he needs to be. That is all I can say. Is it so hard for you to believe that he might not be the villain here?

*Junii storms in from outside... he sits at the bar and conjures up a plate of congealed brown mass and begins spooning it into his mouth... swearing after each bite.*

*groggily*

Hey ju.

*chugs a glass of chocolate milk*

*A misty breeze comes in thru the cracks of the door... turning red and black, and eventually the form of Kuro is seen walking to the bar*

Hello everyone... Is someone bartending? Or is it get your own tonight?

*Growls and takes her drink to the window, watching the falling ash.*

*swallows... * hey Gene...

What's your poison Kuro?

*notices the falling ash*

Did something happen while I was asleep?

*Must be "help yourself" night... Goes behind bar and warms some sake*

Would anyone like to join me?

*I wondering what has happened in he past 24 hrs.*

*notices the falling ash*

Did something happen while I was asleep?
It's just volcanic ash. Same as always, but the wind has picked more of it up, and we're getting a nice ground cover of volcanic mud.

*she stalks into the club, rain mixing with the blood on her face. she spots people sitting at the bar, and walks over, cleaning and sheathing her katanas.*

hello, everyone... how are things with you all tonight?

*she materializes a cold sake for herself, with ice.*

*swallows... * hey Gene...

What's your poison Kuro?

*chuckles* I'm nothing BUT poison, but I hope you don't mind I helped myself to some sake... Thank you for asking...

*can't help but smirk at Ju's question*

Noir! Good to see you, although you don't look too happy...

Blood! Who've you been fighting! Do you need any help???!!! I've got your back you know... as long as I'm around...

It's just volcanic ash. Same as always, but the wind has picked more of it up, and we're getting a nice ground cover of volcanic mud.
Kewl. :cool:

Can't wait for those tiny particles to enter my lungs and condense with the moisture in my lungs to form cement, effectively drowning me in cement. :D

*looks at Noire... *

that damned snake attacking you again?

Noir! Good to see you, although you don't look too happy...

*she grins.*

Hey, Hype! I'm all right... just a bit tired out from work today.

*she motions to the blades at her sides.*

things have been getting interesting lately. I needed to relieve some tension, if you will...

*she stalks into the club, rain mixing with the blood on her face. she spots people sitting at the bar, and walks over, cleaning and sheathing her katanas.*

hello, everyone... how are things with you all tonight?

*she materializes a cold sake for herself, with ice.*
Hello noire. how are you?

*sighs* What snake would that be, Ju?

*Junii storms in from outside... he sits at the bar and conjures up a plate of congealed brown mass and begins spooning it into his mouth... swearing after each bite.*

Is everything all right?

*sighs* What snake would that be, Ju?

ooc: Zatarack keeps trying to kill my character. *rolls eyes*

Is everything all right?just fustrated at the tension here... waiting for the hammer to fall...

OOC: installed 4 new pc's to 4 users who couldn't decide where the wanted the damn things... :mad:

Hello noire. how are you?

Hey Gene! I'm doing okay. Just got in from doing some work, if you will. How are things with you?

*wonders what goes on... [/I]everyone is asking everyone if they're ok and no one responds to the question.[I]*

So, what IS going on around here tonight??? *keeps drinking sake, perhaps too much, hoping for an answer*

just fustrated at the tension here... waiting for the hammer to fall...

OOC: installed 4 new pc's to 4 users who couldn't decide where the wanted the damn things... :mad:

tension is one way of putting it...

*she laughs and takes a drink from her sake, twisting her white hair around her index finger.*

ooc: that sucks. :mad:

*wonders what goes on... [/I]everyone is asking everyone if they're ok and no one responds to the question.[I]*

So, what IS going on around here tonight??? *keeps drinking sake, perhaps too much, hoping for an answer*

OOC: Messed up those itallics... oops...!

Hey Gene! I'm doing okay. Just got in from doing some work, if you will. How are things with you?
*2 thumbs down*

Terrible :(

*2 thumbs down*

Terrible :(


Why terrible Gene?

*wonders what goes on... [/I]everyone is asking everyone if they're ok and no one responds to the question.[I]*

So, what IS going on around here tonight??? *keeps drinking sake, perhaps too much, hoping for an answer*

as of right now... nothing much. I think I'd like to make some use of the kareoke bar...

*she grins.*

So, what IS going on around here tonight??? *keeps drinking sake, perhaps too much, hoping for an answer*don't know... apparently there was an attack on the club last night... who knows what'll happen tonight.

*2 thumbs down*

Terrible :(

aw... that sucks. why is it terrible?

My home.... was destroyed.

don't know... apparently there was an attack on the club last night... who knows what'll happen tonight.

When Vaga was poisoned???

My home.... was destroyed.

what?!

*she forgets about the kareoke, at least for the time being.*

how? and why?

ooc: Atreyu IS the villain though, right? Doesn't he want to destroy the earth tokens and thus FUBAR the world?

*She leaned quietly agaisnt the wall, watching the reflections of the patrons at the bar in the glass windows. So this was how it was to be. The next generation had taken firm hold, and it was time for the old to wash away beneath their wave. She almost felt out of place these days, and Atreyu's Order had little to do with it. Glancing down briefly, she finished off the bottle and returned an expressionless gaze to the distant hazy horizon.*

My home.... was destroyed.

I'm so sorry to hear that Gene. I'd offer you a place to stay, but being the entity I am, I don't have a home... *remembers self-replicating nano-bot poison and gets angry and now Gene has no home... feels anger and tries best to control it*

**out at what remains of the forest edge, a lone figure cloaked in deep crimson can be seen walking amidst the destruction. ever so often he tosses a black jewel to the ground and contenues on his trek**
no substitute for an army, but it will help to hold back the onslaught for a time.
**Vaga sighs and contenues on, barely visible from the club through the ashen rain**

ooc: Atreyu IS the villain though, right? Doesn't he want to destroy the earth tokens and thus FUBAR the world?
OOC: He wants to destroy the Tokens to prevent Azael from gaining control of the Titans. All the controversy here stems from previous conception and different views of the same end.

what?!

*she forgets about the kareoke, at least for the time being.*

how? and why?
Deneb went supernova.

*She leaned quietly agaisnt the wall, watching the reflections of the patrons at the bar in the glass windows. So this was how it was to be. The next generation had taken firm hold, and it was time for the old to wash away beneath their wave. She almost felt out of place these days, and Atreyu's Order had little to do with it. Glancing down briefly, she finished off the bottle and returned an expressionless gaze to the distant hazy horizon.*

*noticing Gael alone by the window, she slips away from the group and hands Gael a rum.*

Would you like some company? Or do you need some alone time...

*thinks Perhaps the right thing would be to let the earth be destroyed*

Deneb went supernova.

ooc: Deneb? I must have missed something...

*noticing Gael alone by the window, she slips away from the group and hands Gael a rum.*

Would you like some company? Or do you need some alone time...
*Takes the bottle with a mirthless smile.*

The only thing I need is to come to terms with the inevitable..

ooc: Deneb? I must have missed something...
OOC: deneb is a white-hot superstar burning 265,000 times brighter than Earth's sun, 3228 lightyears away. That is my Empire's current home, and here in the PC universe, it dies a premature death in a cataclysmic supernova.

*Takes the bottle with a mirthless smile.*

The only thing I need is to come to terms with the inevitable..

*she nods*

Which can sometimes often be the hardest thing to come to terms with... or the easiest. It all depends on the way you go about it.

*she turns to look out the window, and takes a drink of her sake.*

*destroy all the pain and misery I see around here day after day. Looks around room seeing everyone and no happiness anywhere... Perhaps this planet does not deserve to continue, nor the human race Realizing how horrible that sounds, not being human herself, knowing she would live through it to wander the galaxy while the others perished, Kuro just sits alone in a corner getting drunk*

*Nods silently, closing off her thoughts.*

*watches everyone... his mood lightened by the company here. *

OOC: BrB

*Takes the bottle with a mirthless smile.*

The only thing I need is to come to terms with the inevitable..
OOC: "mirthless" smile, or "Myrthless" smile? :D

*Nods silently, closing off her thoughts.*

*she nods to Gael, leaving her to her thoughts, and makes her way back to Hype and the group.*

Gene... I'm sorry to hear about Deneb.

*hugs*

*Rolls up another fat one* *Lights It Up* then asks anyone wanna Join me for this one? if so meet me in at the back table...

*sensing that she should leave Gael to herself, she nods to Gael and makes her way back to Hype and the group.*

Gene... I'm sorry to hear about Deneb.

*hugs*
*embraces noire's hug*

Thanks. Fortunately, I managed to save my Aurea Borealis planet, and that tri-ship at the outer edge of this solar system is still there, the last existing remnant of my empire. Aurea boralis is on it now.

*watches everyone... his mood lightened by the company here. *

OOC: BrB

* Seeing Ju looking brighter, Kuro cannot understand why... Picks up wakizashi thoughtfully and begins to run tip of finger down blade absent mindedly, unaware of the blood beginning to pour*

*A bit of motion caught her eye on the far ridge. Something subtle and psychologically hidden. Frowning slightly, she swallowed a bit of the rum, her eyes scanning the landscape below.*

Not yet.

*embraces noire's hug*

Thanks. Fortunately, I managed to save my Aurea Borealis planet, and that tri-ship at the outer edge of this solar system is still there, the last existing remnant of my empire. Aurea boralis is on it now.

That's good, at least... don't want her to die out! How is Aurea Borealis doing lately?

*embraces noire's hug*

Thanks. Fortunately, I managed to save my Aurea Borealis planet, and that tri-ship at the outer edge of this solar system is still there, the last existing remnant of my empire. Aurea boralis is on it now.

I'm glad you saved your planet... so you DO have a home, to some extent...
*smiles weakly at Gene, staring at reflection in blade*

* Seeing Ju looking brighter, Kuro cannot understand why... Picks up wakizashi thoughtfully and begins to run tip of finger down blade absent mindedly, unaware of the blood beginning to pour*

*she hands Kuro a bandage.*

you might want to be careful with that... not that I haven't done it myself on occasion.

*she laughs*

but anyway... how are things with you? This world is going down the drain... but I figure, what better company to go down the drain with than these people?

That's good, at least... don't want her to die out! How is Aurea Borealis doing lately?
Well, I have a feeling that Earth won't last much longer, so I'll place Aurea Borealis in orbit around the sun, and place the inhabitants of the triship on there. However, as Earth dies, I will stay here, and die with it. I was born on this planet, and I must go down with it.

*watches everyone... his mood lightened by the company here. *

OOC: BrB

ooc: oh okay, sorry, missed your post... :rolleyes: stupid me.

**Vaga finishes his round outside and takes a step back to look over the landscape, if it can even be called that anymore. the forest was burning, and where it was already charcoal, the water began to collect, forming hellish looking swamps. the river of magma still flowed to the side of the club, pouring from the mountainside in the distance. everything was covered in ash now, as the winds had turned and given the club a good dusting.**
so this is what i'm fighting so save huh. bunch of dead trees, few rocks, river of lava...
**he sighs and looks back a the club itself**
...and a run down building that looks as if it should have been condemed a decade ago.
**he smirks and starts back towards the club, resting a hand on the handle of his blade over his shoulder**
fighting to keep hell out of Hell. if i was a poet i'd probibly find something humerous about that.

I'm glad you saved your planet... so you DO have a home, to some extent...
*smiles weakly at Gene, staring at reflection in blade*
Earth is my true home. Thus, I stay here.

*Ju comes out of the kitchen wheeling a large bowl filled with Diced Fruit and Vanilla flavored Geletin.* starts ladeling it into smaller bowls and hands it to people.*

I'm sure the PTB's will realize something's amiss... but I do think we need cheering up...

*offers bowl to Gael*

and to spend some quality time with friends.

*she hands Kuro a bandage.*

you might want to be careful with that... not that I haven't done it myself on occasion.

*she laughs*

but anyway... how are things with you? This world is going down the drain... but I figure, what better company to go down the drain with than these people?

Thank you for the bandage! *looks down at bloody mess* Umm.. sorry about that.

Things with me are... OK I guess... The world is going down the drain, and yes, the company is good, but I can't help thinking that... *looks off not finishing sentence, thinking: it should be speeded up... I might want to help speed it up... get it over now....*

Uhhh.. sorry.... guess I had too much sake...

Earth is my true home. Thus, I stay here.

*after hearing this, Kuro cannot look Gene in the eye after what she was thinking*

I... see...

Earth is my true home. Thus, I stay here.

That's good you're so dedicated... but it's not all over yet, you know? I'm not planning on writing off my life tonight. Then again... it's hard to keeps plans here, with everything that's happening...

*her blue eyes glow slightly, and she takes another drink of her sake, her forehead wrinkled a bit in a worrisome look.*

ooc: sent a TG to ya Gael

*A single scout watched Vaga benignly, prone and practically buried in the mud.*

*Gael gracefully refuses the bowl.*

Thanks anyway...but I don't have much of an appetite these days..

*Smiles slightly, shifting her wings.*

That's good you're so dedicated... but it's not all over yet, you know? I'm not planning on writing off my life tonight. Then again... it's hard to keeps plans here, with everything that's happening...

*her blue eyes glow slightly, and she takes another drink of her sake, her forehead wrinkled a bit in a worrisome look.*
Well, before the night is over, Aurea Borealis will be a true planet, and I will join my spirit with the spirit of this planet.

*takes the bowl and smiles at Ju.*

I hadn't really realized how hungry I was... thanks.

*Knowing that the destruction of Earth does not mean Kuro's destruction, she is uncomfortable at the thought of these people dying... and at the thought of roaming around the universe... being picked up by various solar flares... alone... for who knows how long... the way it used to be before coming to earth*

Fruit! Thanks Ju...

**vagas eyes flick over towards one of the swamps**
we have company, brother.
i know.
and you're just going let him live?
i dont care anymore. if i kill this one they will send another. he does not know what i've done and thus has nothing to report. i say let him wallow in the mud, for all the good it does him.
**vaga shook his head to clear it as he enters the club, which also does a fair job of scattering some damp ash about the place. he walks over to the bar and grabs a bottle of rum**

*up on the rooftop, a lone figure is crouched by the Chimmney... using it's mass to sheild him from all but the most careful of watchers... Nekone blinks as he notices Vaga making his way to the club... *

Well, before the night is over, Aurea Borealis will be a true planet, and I will join my spirit with the spirit of this planet.

ah... I see. Meaning what, exactly?

*up on the rooftop, a lone figure is crouched by the Chimmney... using it's mass to sheild him from all but the most careful of watchers... Nekone blinks as he notices Vaga making his way to the club... *

*Sensing a presence, Kuro instantly becomes ethereal wind and appears next to Nikone...*

Hello there...

OOC: Replied.

IC:
*Scowls slightly, catching Vaga's reflection in the glass, but makes no motion to turn and face anyone in particular.*

Well, before the night is over, Aurea Borealis will be a true planet, and I will join my spirit with the spirit of this planet.

You mean to say you will lose your human body?

realizes that he is not wanted on the forum so heads out to find something more interesting to do... *decided to try out Mandrake Linux* but cant bring himself to leave Ubuntu... so whatever happens if you want me you can find me on AIM... cporterfield1144..... *Shoots Himself in the head and slowly Dies*

OOC: have a great one you guys it was great meeting you all like i said if you for some reason want to get ahold of me you can talk to me on AIM at cporterfield1144 have a good one guys...

ah... I see. Meaning what, exactly?
It means that Aurea Borealis will be a full size planet with it's own moon, and I will be sucked up into a tornado of lava.

OOC: for some reason, i find that last part sadistically funny.... :D

You mean to say you will lose your human body?
Technically, yes.

"Excuse me if I'm less than inclined to believe you Gael. Evil megalomaniacal *ssholes like Atreyu tend to remain evil megalomaniacal *ssholes."

ooc: another TG Gael

Technically, yes.

*smiles inside, knowing that Gene will live on if the earth does not... thinks Perhaps I could find another home... Sighs, knowing she's never had a home, and if this earth goes up, it will just be like so many other inhabited planets*

realizes that he is not wanted on the forum so heads out to find something more interesting to do... *decided to try out Mandrake Linux* but cant bring himself to leave Ubuntu... so whatever happens if you want me you can find me on AIM... cporterfield1144..... *Shoots Himself in the head and slowly Dies*

OOC: have a great one you guys it was great meeting you all like i said if you for some reason want to get ahold of me you can talk to me on AIM at cporterfield1144 have a good one guys...OOC: no need for such melodramatics... I did offer you food you know...

Hello there...*Without turning*

"Evil" is an engineered concept. It's all a matter of perspective. What makes Vaga or yourself any different?

OOC: for some reason, i find that last part sadistically funny.... :D

ooc: I find it sadistically funny as well, in a way lol.

ic: *she takes a drink of her sake once again, wondering who will be around the club tonight, and if she should chance a walk. deciding against it, and finishing the sake, the bottle disappears in a small explosion of black fire.*

*lets rain pour over her* It doesn't matter... really...

OOC: Black Desp.... TG sent...

ooc: I find it sadistically funny as well, in a way lol.
OOC: *evil grin* :D

*lets rain pour over her* It doesn't matter... really...*shrugs...* what brings you out here on a night like this?

**he takes a sip of rum and finds himself a dark booth away from the crowd**
good... evil... these are just word. words thought up to describe a certain way of going about things. no more than that. intention seems to be the only thing that seperates the two in fact.
**Vaga smirks to himself and leans further into the darkness**
there is no good or bad. only life and death.

OOC: Replied.

IC:
"Evil" is an engineered concept. It's all a matter of perspective. What makes Vaga or yourself any different?

Evil is one half of a balance... Good cannot exist without it. I don't know Atreyu... but he sounds like someone I wouldn't mind meeting... *perhaps I'm just an evil megalomaniacal @sshole myself chuckles to herself*

ooc: hype, got the TG and replied.

*shrugs...* what brings you out here on a night like this?


I could ask you the same? *smiles*

OOC: *evil grin* :D

ooc: *also grins evilly.* >: D lol..

*goes to the piano and starts ticking the ivories... playing a jazzy tune*

I could ask you the same? *smiles*Hunting.... :D

*goes to the piano and starts ticking the ivories... playing a jazzy tune*

oh, God... I love jazz.

*she taps her fingernails on the counter along to the music.*

Meeting him is quite the enlightening experience.

*Smiles distantly, remembering that final hour, the all-consuming ardour, the glorious pain and uncertainty.*

I could arrange for you to meet him, if that would interest you.

*floats down chimney toward the first light hearted sound heard tonight*

This is marvelous!

*walks toward piano w/sake, leans on it, starry eyed at the beautiful music*
It's enchanting....

*And the MUSIC can't be lost forever!!!*

**smirks to himself and looks up frm the shadows at Gael**
still gathering the troops i see.
**he considered asking her this, but thought better of it. he was not in the mood for a fight tonight**

*she grabs a microphone from the kareoke bar and begins to sing along to the music in a rich alto.*

Drifting, dreaming
In an azure mood
Stardust gleaming
Through my solitude

Here in my seclusion
You're a blue illusion
While I'm in this azure interlude
I'm not wanted
I'm so all alone

Always haunted
By the dreams I own
But though I'm tormented
I must be contented

Drifting, dreaming
In an azure mood

Drifting, dreaming
In an azure mood

Drifting, dreaming
In an azure mood...

*her voice dies off..*

ooc: duke ellington... *sigh* I love jazz... does that make me a dork...

Meeting him is quite the enlightening experience.

*Smiles distantly, remembering that final hour, the all-consuming ardour, the glorious pain and uncertainty.*

I could arrange for you to meet him, if that would interest you.

*turns to Gael* Gael, are you speaking to me??? I would like to meet him.... *all the while feeling excited and frightened all at once... Strange... I'm not used to feeling any fear...*

"I don't claim to speak for anyone. All I know is that if you and your "friends" do what you plan on doing then a lot of people are going to die. It's wrong no matter your "perspective" and I'll do whatever it takes to protect them."

*Picks up where Noire left off... w/her favorite lyrics...*

I hear your voice way down inside
A whispering sea of towering trees
But no reply

A silence so rare and more than I can stand
Sweeps like a flood
Through life’s flesh and blood
And steals away with its heart...

*That music will haunt me forever....*

*switches smoothly from Jazz to Rock n Roll*

**he projected his thoughts into Kuro's mind**
wrong choice Kuro.
**he wasnt in the mood for a fight, but he wasnt going to stand by and let his enemy gather strength right in front of him either. he drew ther toothed daggar and spun it on its tip, making the slightest high pitched noise, waiting for a reply**

*turns to Gael* Gael, are you speaking to me??? I would like to meet him.... *all the while feeling excited and frightened all at once... Strange... I'm not used to feeling any fear...*
Not "speaking," persay..

*Smiles cryptically.*

Then meet him you shall.

*wakes up* damn these magical powers... couldnt kill meself even if i wanted to... takes Ju's offer for the food... eats up... grabs his shotgun and takes duty as bartender again... *Rolls and smokes another duby*

OOC: dont worry guys in real life i dont smoke the green stuff its just part of my chara... lets say it gives him the magical powers he has :p

Picks up where Noire left off... w/her favorite lyrics...

OOC:seee sig below....

ooc: for some reason, no signatures are showing up... maybe it's just my computer.

ic: *she puts the microphone back on stage, and sighs.*

I haven't gotten to do that in a long time... that song brings back so much.

*a dreamy look is in her eyes as she remembers.*

I miss music.

Leave her be, Vaga. There was never any harm in meeting someone. And besides, I have no desire to see any of them killed.

ooc: Gael did not reply to Baker's last comment on previous page....

if she leaves now, she will never be able to return. i've seen to that. i cannot afford any disceptions.
**he makes sure that the both of them hear it and from the corner, his eyes flash a dull red for a moment, then it disapears again, leaving Vaga in the darkness**

*Scoffs at Vaga.*

And people still wonder who the real threat is here.

**the shadow itself seems to speak, rather than Vaga within it*
i am a threat only to those who cross me.

"I don't claim to speak for anyone. All I know is that if you and your "friends" do what you plan on doing then a lot of people are going to die. It's wrong no matter your "perspective" and I'll do whatever it takes to protect them."
A lot of people are going to die any way this goes down. I'm trying to prevent as much of that as I can.

**he projected his thoughts into Kuro's mind**
wrong choice Kuro.
**he wasnt in the mood for a fight, but he wasnt going to stand by and let his enemy gather strength right in front of him either. he drew ther toothed daggar and spun it on its tip, making the slightest high pitched noise, waiting for a reply**

I am CLEARLY able to listen to two sides of a situation and make up my own mind! *Kuro yells, hand on katana.*

*telepathically: Let's not fight... I only want to meet him, whether it be in person or telpathically*

ooc: g2g, night all.

ic: *still remembering, a sad look flits across her face.*

I think I'm going to go to sleep now... goodbye, everyone.

*she walks up the stairs to her room, and the memories bring tears before she finally falls asleep.*

OOC... night BD...

IC: Good night...

the choice is your's Kuro. but if you step foot outside of the grounds, there will be no turning around and walking back in. do i make myself perfectly clear?

Gael? Does... Atreyu reside in Vaga??? Somehow?

*switches to Swing.*



*watches Vaga and Gael...*


let's see if some frivority will draw anyone out...

ooc: g2g, night all.

ic: *still remembering, a sad look flits across her face.*

*she walks up the stairs to her room, and the memories bring tears before she finally falls asleep.*Nigt Noire...

**vaga only smirks at the comment and takes a gulp of his rum**

Gael? Does... Atreyu reside in Vaga??? Somehow?
*Loses her composure for the first time in laughter.*

Absolutely not.

OOC: Ju that reminds me, we learned some trick moves for swing today in my social dance class. So fun!

*looks around, and teleports up to his ship. Gene does what is needed and turns Aurea Borealis into a full-size planet with a full size moon, puts it into a polar orbit around the sun, drops off the people, and returns to earth*

*appears next to the bar, and chugs a gallon of chocolate milk*

A lot of people are going to die any way this goes down. I'm trying to prevent as much of that as I can.

"I'm not ready to believe that. There HAS to be a better way, and I refuse to just give up on things."

*sticks his arm through the hole in his back, so that his hand stuck out the front. With it he waved to everyone in the bar area.*

G'night all, we're just waiting for our knight in shining armour to take us away.

*With that, he unnecessarily heads up to his room, to stand...*

thinks about calling it a night himself* asks if anyone would like a drink... guzzles a pint of Peppermint Schnapps

*Loses her composure for the first time in laughter.*

Absolutely not.

OOC: Ju that reminds me, we learned some trick moves for swing today in my social dance class. So fun!

OOC: Well everyone is so damned schizophrenic around here! lol!!

*stops playing the Piano... lowers the covers so the keys are protected.*

well that was fun... while it lasted. :)

Kuro... beware when talking to the Devil... and always keep one hand on your soul.

the choice is your's Kuro. but if you step foot outside of the grounds, there will be no turning around and walking back in. do i make myself perfectly clear?

You're saying if I meet this man, I can't come back? Why would that be? Perhaps you could shed just a tiny bit of light about Atreyu??? And his goals...

"I'm not ready to believe that. There HAS to be a better way, and I refuse to just give up on things."
Ever the optomist, aren't you?

*Still not too concerned... the soul... or is it souls now... sighs*

I want to meet him. No harm in that... Maybe I could begin to understand some of this... *takes a bottle of Grey Goose from behind the bar and takes a very unfeminine swig out of it*

to meet Atreyu is to become corrupted. i know that first hand. he has a way of persuading people to do things that benifit his mindset. if you descide to meet with him, it might as well be to sign with him. my defense of this club and the fire token will make no exeptions for anyone.

OOC: so what exactly happens when we reach the max out of pages in this forum? does everyone just go their seperate ways or will their be a new club at that time?

You're saying if I meet this man, I can't come back? Why would that be? Perhaps you could shed just a tiny bit of light about Atreyu??? And his goals...Demon... Kuro... Atreyu is a demon... he sucks your soul dry and leaves behind a shadow... *A memory of Gides before and After her encounter with Atreyu* if you're lucky...


wonders if Gides and Tomlin are ok... and notices that the pain is no longer there.

That is biased propoganda, Vaga. What about Prue?

And what happened to Gides happened of her own doing. I very nearly walked that same road.

*[I]But what if our goals ARE the same?! Even if for different reasons... And my soul/souls...*

I'm not trying to steal any token from you. I would just like to meet him....

it is meant to be bias Gael. it is meant to keep Kuro here, because if she leaves, she cannot return. the same goes for you or anyone else wo goes off the grounds. if you leave, you leave for good, at least until Atreyu and his minions discover a way around the little trick.

our goals are the same, Kuro, i will tell you that now. the difference is, that the way he wishes to achieve the goal will ultimately do the exaact opposite.

I WANT to meet him... Is there some way without compromising your security? *The more that is said about him, the more I want to meet him...*

I should get the chance... What's so powerful about him? Why do you think my meeting him would make any difference in any way?

Trick? You mean there's some sort of supershield around the place?

Your ends are they same, the means are different... This is all becoming a bit cryptic... So you ALL want the demise of the Earth? Is that it? *becoming frustrated, slight breeze enveloping Kuro*

Ever the optomist, aren't you?

"I don't care what you think of me. Just know that I won't let you, or any other of Atreyu's pawns get to the last token."

you would be mindful to hold your tounge Gene.
**he eyes flash over to the godling for a second, then return focus on Kuro**
there is no other way. this is not a prison, but it is a fortress.

No one wants to end the world, luv. We both want to stop that from happening.

Trick? You mean there's some sort of supershield around the place?

I've been coming in and out of here since I first showed up! I've never seen a shield? *perhaps it's because I travel as toxic miasma???*

why would we need a supershield for anyway? somehow i find it hard to believe that we are actually all gong to DIE... Kuro trust me believe the elder ones they know the truth... *plays some music* would you like to dance Kuro? get your mid off meeting this dude for the time being

No one wants to end the world, luv. We both want to stop that from happening.

If that's the case, what's the issue? Why is it so crucial to you that I not meet him? *looks at Gael and Vaga*

Whoops....

*heeds Vaga's advice*

**Vaga stands up violently his eyes glowing a constant dull red now. the table he was sitting at flips and the rum shatters on the ground. his voice is harsh, and allthough it is not loud, it seems to echo through the halls anyways**
the most horrible things in this world, or any other, are done with the best of intentions, Gael. Atreyu's plan is no different. what do you think will happen if he manages to get ahold of this?
**he holds up the re-ignighted goblet**
he will destroy it. and with this one gone and the other three in place, the titan of fire will be free to do as it choses. that, paired with the other three already bent on destruction of the planet, will bring about earth's demise. You know what i say is true, and yet you follow Him, even into damnation!

"I don't care what you think of me. Just know that I won't let you, or any other of Atreyu's pawns get to the last token."
Baker, I could give a damn about the Token. So long as Azael doesn't have it.

*Glances back to the woman*

Vaga is the one with the issue, not I. He is so blind in his hatred that it is all he can see.

Is this perhaps a "Keep" so to speak? Holding something IN? Moreso than keeping something out? You're preventing Areyu from getting his hands on this token... And if he does what?

Gael, you say none of you want to end the world... What's the issue... what way does Atreyu want to "save the world" and how is it that all of you want to "save the world"? *looks around eyes beginning to spin black and red*

Baker, I could give a damn about the Token. So long as Azael doesn't have it.

*Glances back to the woman*

Vaga is the one with the issue, not I. He is so blind in his hatred that it is all he can see.


Who is Azael? And I only want to know the differences in the WAY you both want to save the earth that is so off...?

"I don't care what you think of me. Just know that I won't let you, or any other of Atreyu's pawns get to the last token."


Casts a silence spell on Gene... now maybe you'll learn not to speak so attrocious to people... i personally do not believe that gael is involved with Atreyu in any way

He does not want to "save" it so much as prevent it's destruction.

Azael is the demon with the other three tokens. The one we are trying to stop. The one who killed Jerry.

You said he wanted to save the earth as well????

Casts a silence spell on Gene... now maybe you'll learn not to speak so attrocious to people... i personally do not believe that gael is involved with Atreyu in any way
*is unaffected by the silence spell*

I'm a godling, so spells don't work on me.

he believes that by destroying the token before it is placed that the titan will not turn against the planet. the thing he does not know, is that this token is all that keeps it from doing so anyways. the titans are beings of distruction. it is all they know.

* a low chuckle... rising to a meniacal laughter is heard from the piano...*


I really can't believe this... here both sides are gearing up for battle... trying to gather troops and supporters, and who do they choose as the recruiters... the two... no THREE people who had very little contact with any of the clubs patrons. *waves an arm at Vaga, Gael, and Sage.* My earliest memories of you three were alway by yourselves, a nice little cliuqe... never bothering with a 'hello' much less the time of day to anyone else. snobbing any attempt to be friendly. now it's "believe me... I'm telling the truth..." "you can trust me..."

Well gentlemen and lady... it's the last call... the river card has been revealed... time to lay the truth on the table. no more riddles... no more cryptic comments... you want your troops...



Convince us.

He does not want to "save" it so much as prevent it's destruction.

Azael is the demon with the other three tokens. The one we are trying to stop. The one who killed Jerry.

Prevent it's destruction... OK... That's your intention, that's Atreyu's intention...

Stop Azael... from doing what? Destroying the world? *using all her control not to spill out poison from her body, eyes solid black, whites and all*

If Atreyu's so horrible... but he wants to save the world... also? *becomes more confused* And now you bring up Azael??!!!!

* a low chuckle... rising to a meniacal laughter is heard from the piano...*

Well said Ju... *relaxing as Ju expressed her sentiments more coherently*

Please just lay all the cards on the table!

oh well... worth a shot... how about a drink gene? let these folks discuss their issue... i've been meaning to talk to you about Noire and this Zatarack fellow

he believes that by destroying the token before it is placed that the titan will not turn against the planet. the thing he does not know, is that this token is all that keeps it from doing so anyways. the titans are beings of distruction. it is all they know.
And who's to say that destroying them will have that end? It's never been done before so there's no precedence! It's all prophesy and the mad visions of so-called prophets.

**vaga sighs and gives a look at Ju that might have blown holes in a steel wall**
there are no cards to be played here. there is only life and death. if you side with me, i cannot garuntee life, but if you side with Atreyu, i can garuntee death.

oh well... worth a shot... how about a drink gene? let these folks discuss their issue... i've been meaning to talk to you about Noire and this Zatarack fellow
Sure thing.

*a glass of chocolate milke appears in gene's hand*

**vaga sighs and gives a look at Ju that might have blown holes in a steel wall**
there are no cards to be played here. there is only life and death. if you side with me, i cannot garuntee life, but if you side with Atreyu, i can garuntee death.
And that is where I beg to differ.

*throws back head and laughs* Again, as Ju said... lay the cards on the table... *growing more impatient, throwing silver dust into air to neutralize acid beginning to swirl around Kuro*

No one has yet to answer one question I have asked... *sighs* I do NOT understand this! Why can you not just spit it out!

no Gael. one man from one culture, thats a prophet and a prophicy; a prophet's prophicy i could ignore. 200 people from 40 cultures all saying the same thing; now thats something to take into account.

Perhaps humanity deserves to die! Become extinct! *gasps, realizing she yelled that aloud... looks around the room*

If the tokens are moved, the Titans are freed... that's what you said a long time ago Vaga... and when these tokens are brought to a particular place, then he/she who has the token will command the Titan.

is this true Gael?

Sure thing.

*a glass of chocolate milke appears in gene's hand*


*Jose summons a bottle of Gin and a cigarette* *lights the cigarette*

now Gene as im sure you know Zatarack seems to have some sort of a major problem with Noire and as i was talking to her earlier she told me that she's afraid that he's going to sneak attack her and try to kill her. now i assured her that i'd do everything in my power to keep it from happening as long as i could. she just wants to make sure he dont kill her until she's ready to battle him. so im asking you to be on the look out also. do you know why he hates her so much? im just curious as she never told me why he hated her just that he did

**vaga smirks**
yes, prehaps it does. after all, they are merely a disease to this planet; sucking all of its natural resorses and overpopulating its surface. the one problem is that this will not only kill the humans; this will kill the planet. as in the planet will ceise to exist.

If the tokens are moved, the Titans are freed... that's what you said a long time ago Vaga... and when these tokens are brought to a particular place, then he/she who has the token will command the Titan.

THE Titan... there is one??? With some sort of ultimate power, is that it?!

no Gael. one man from one culture, thats a prophet and a prophicy; a profet's prophicy i could ignore. 200 people from 40 cultures all saying the same thing; now thats something to take into account.
And at one time, thousands of men in hundreds of cultures swore the Earth was flat.

You want the truth? Here is all I know. Azael has three of the four tokens. He needs the fourth to complete the ritual and to control the Titans. Azael is weak and shrewd, biding his time and neutralizing potential threats with "gifts."

*Angrily, she grasps the torc around her neck*

To control us. Atreyu and the Order don't like the thought of unleashing all this. Whatever plans they have, the destruction of the world does not mesh well with them. But good bad or indifferent, they are best equipped to deal with this, and powerful enough to see it through. The Tokens must be destroyed. I don't want to see any of you get killed, and I certainly don't want to be the one to hold the weapon, but so help me if it comes to that I will.

*The bottle of rum shattered in her hand, the alcohol vaporizing before it could spill. Her eyes glowed white-hot, graced with the hint of a tear.*

THE Titan... there is one??? With some sort of ultimate power, is that it?!nope... as far as I understood it... the person who takes the thunder token to the appointed place will control that titan... the one who brings three tokens will control three titans.... I think.

the are four, one for each of the tokens. the titans have complete control over their element on this planet. so yes, there is some fairly enormous power there.

**vaga smirks**
yes, prehaps it does. after all, they are merely a disease to this planet; sucking all of its natural resorses and overpopulating its surface. the one problem is that this will not only kill the humans; this will kill the planet. as in the planet will ceise to exist.

*Kuro chuckles* There are other planets... *laughs* I have a feeling Atreyu might be a bit more forthcoming than any of you... *laughing louder*

*Jose summons a bottle of Gin and a cigarette* *lights the cigarette*

now Gene as im sure you know Zatarack seems to have some sort of a major problem with Noire and as i was talking to her earlier she told me that she's afraid that he's going to sneak attack her and try to kill her. now i assured her that i'd do everything in my power to keep it from happening as long as i could. she just wants to make sure he dont kill her until she's ready to battle him. so im asking you to be on the look out also. do you know why he hates her so much? im just curious as she never told me why he hated her just that he did
I do not, unfortunately, know why Zat hates Noire, godling I may be.

**vaga's voice drops, still harsh and rezounding, but now with a hint of ominous**
fine. then go. but take heed, you cannot return. and i cannot garuntee that the when next we meet, you will not be dead.
**his fixes his glowing eyes on Gael only long enough to get his point across. it was time for the final sides to be chosen, and those not on his where not welcome here anymore. he then turned and walked into the darker recesses of the club**

And at one time, thousands of men in hundreds of cultures swore the Earth was flat.

*hmm.... what about.... controlling Atreyu and this "order" or better yet... controlling Azael Looks up thoughtfully... *

You shouldn't place your life blindly in the hands of another, Gael... believing they are best equipped?? Maybe, maybe not...

*With an angry growl, she threw the nearest object at him, frustrated and furious.*

well Gael? can you answer my question then?

I do not, unfortunately, know why Zat hates Noire, godling I may be.


ok well im just letting you know before things do get out of hand that something really bad is coming up... i dont know what it is but i know its coming... and i think that when its over we may not have Noire left... if that happens then i must fight Zatarack... its only right because i promised Noire i'd take him out if he went after her... im just asking you that until she's ready to challenge him to battle if you wouldnt mind watching her back per say? i'd greatly appreciate it and im sure she would too

**before the object reaches half-way to him he has held up a hand and deflected the object with great force out the door. ouside in the swamp, the Order's spy is hit by the object, the force of it crushing his skull and killing him instantly**

My life is not my own, Kuro. It has never been mine.

well Gael? can you answer my question then?
What exactly is your question, then.
