"Listen. I am a monk of a rare and unknown order sworn to only meddle with the affairs of man or demon when the entire planet is in jeoprody. It is within my abilities to gain entrance to Roania."

"Oh."

((Let's wait until Kain gets back))

OOC: ok. who is the other guy making the faces at my posts?

OO: I've been wondering that. I know that tonnes of people who weren't invited are watching this thread, maybe he's being the audience. :evil: If so, go away!

She nodded. "Fine. No matter. I see that Kain doesn't care. I'll just give the order for his beloved Danielle to be killed."

*Sniff*

It's Daniella

(OOC What the hell? Alright...Kain will not be happy....at all....)

Kain turned at this arguement going on.

"For all I know, there is a army of demons of the verge of entering this world. Either way if I do not do something soon, you are going to be pretty screwed to say the least. I will be fine, and my feldgling will be fine, you will not. Do not involve Daniella in this, or you will pay the price for an eternity in Limbo, where I will make sure you suffer great pain.

Now....I am going to stop them from coming through, whether you can stop bickering, or not."

Kain walked away, going towards to portal.


(OOC Where is the portal? Is the demon hoarde coming from it? Do not worry, by closing that portal the Brightblade will be doing a great deal in the demon realms, which will make the demons attacking go back into thier realms to defend thier master. I have it wokred out,. I just need to know some more infomation.)

OOC: The portal is back in a temple in Roania. It is invisible also :P . The demons are breaking through the barrier at the moment. Balfar can guide you back to the temple.

I hope you realize the brightblade does not have a significant amout of forces within Arithon. Not to mention Lord Arithon being immortal.

IC: Balfar followed Kain.

"The portal is back in Roania in a small temple. Already the temple has been corrupted by demonic forces. Demons may very well be passing through the barrier as we speak."

(OOC The Brightblade is a higher demon trapped inside a sword. He used to be pwoerful, and still has loyalist within the demon realms. If he was to become free, he would lead his own forces against your lord. make no mistake, the higher demon within the Brightblade is still evil, and will return should he be freed.)

"Very well lead me to it." Kain spoke, he knew what would happen if he sent the Brightblade away.

(OOC IMPORTANT! kain has been exiled by the Shentavos and been cursed by them not to be able to drink from a mortal. The Brightblade sustains him, but if he should lsoe it, Kain would not have anyone to feed upon unless he tried to go back to the Shentavos. Which he will not. Full info in A New Existance. Those events for simplicity it happened right now)

Kain had an important descion to make...he did not know what he would do.

Either way, I win. Exist for you, no body else cares for you, those who know the truth at least. You are an exile for what you are and what you have done. Now, allow yourself to be on the winning side. Mine
The Birghtblade spoke to kain...and slowly.....it made sense. But Kain had not reached a desicion.

((Which portal you at? Mine?))

(Alright let me just fix this. Kain wants to go to the portal which is letting the demons attack the city first. Then he will go and attempt to close the other one, yes? Who knows where those are?)

Kain spoke to Balfor, "First we must close the portal which is allowing the demons to atatck here!"

"Then fallow me. I located it once. I can do it again," Eric says as he slaps a new clip in his rifle.

"Very well. I am not sure that I can close two portals however.....I am not sure I can even close one." Kain said quietly as he followed Eric, the battle continuing all around them, gunshots, explosions and the sounds of the dying. Kain felt no remorse only a willingness to continue.

But why should he save them? By doing so Kain would damn himself, thus forcing him to tkae blood from blood banks etc.

Eric led Kain to a Scorpion MAB and fired it up and said "Jump on this will make getting there much easier."

kain agreed, and went up onto it, reciting the words he would need. It would do what Kain promised the sword long ago secretly. If there was a single flaw in the words he spoke, it would go horribly wrong....Kain did not want to think of what would happen then.

He summoned up a book and opened it up and began reading the words he had to know and recite. He did not speak them.

(OOC The scorpion is the tank correct?)

((Yup and a bad ass one to))
Eric smiles evily as he starts moving the tank forward and spots a deomon troop heading for him. He opens fire with the main 180mm tank cannon and smiles as he watches the shell lay waste to the troop

The demons saw the veicle and attacked it in waves, thier hollars reverberating around the city. These where only lesser demons, but where still a challenge.

Kain released his grip from the Brightblade, and it swooped around the tank, haking and slashing through a life of it's own.

Eric fired up the 90mm minigun on the tank and started cutting down the demon waves as quickly as the tank could fire

The demons recoiled at that but they came on and on, about twenty began there where now twelve due to the tank fire and the demon sword slashing it's way thorugh.

One of the demons lauched itslef upon the roof of the tank and began to smash into the armour slowly using its acidic vomit to burn through.

Eric grabed the M8D that the tank had on it's dashboard and opened the hatch letting it hit the demon right in the head. Then he pointed the gun to it's head and blasted it.

Kain had learnt the words. He shut the book and opened the hatch and went outside to fight.

There where few left now, and they where hestitating. Kain summoned up shards of ice to flya round the tank, so that demons became gashed by the ice. Kain launched himself into one of the dmeons, punching with his talons, causing great wounds in the demon. The demon retailated with it;s own attack and both of the cmbaticants healed almost instantounously. Kain thrust into the demons skin, and summoned up a spell. The demon counter acted with the exact spell but in reverse, but ain resisted it and continued.

The demon shireked as it relized what was happening, as it's life fluid was drained by kain, the blood entering Kain immediatly. Kain felt revitalised, he had not fed in an age. He could not kill humans, but he could still kill demons. It felt good to have real blood within him, it invigorated him and granted him strength.

The demons began felling, and they soon where cut down by the Brightblade. The sword flew back to Kain's cloven hands as he went below the hatch again.

"How much further?"

On her way toward the intense power she had felt before, she continues on. Quest, unknown; purpose, undecided.

http://www.angelfire.com/nj2/mina/images/WickedLady8.jpg

"About half a click. But this tank is to easy to spot. We should dump it here and move on foot," Eric says as he opens the tanks hatch and jumps out and starts walking.

"Very well." Kain got out and began walking with Eric, the feeling of vertigo coming over him, a inexpiclicable snese of misplacement, of no belonging.

Ignore that Kain. Choose. Either way. I win.

Eric starts running but suddenly us tackled by a demon. Eric quickly throws the demon off and looks for his pistol but sees it in the demon's hands

kain was distracted for a second by this feeling of dread, that he might be truelly alone, doomed. He had been exiled by everyone now. He had ntohing much to live for. Even now he saw no life in this place, each person he saw decayed before his eyes.....rotting, dying.

But he snapped back into focus. The demon who attack Eric was a more pwoerful demon than before. It had his pistol.

Kain spoke a word and the single stream of dark energy pierced through the demon, it's face twisted in an agnoised mask of inprisonment. It's fate was sealed, it fell to the ground as it dissolved, leaving Eric's pistol.

"Come on.....we...need to move....faster...." Kain said, struglling with the words. using the Brightblade in such a way would endure Kain's own demise surely...and perhaps he would never be cured now. But....it was the fate of the lives of the people here.

"Right we got to seal this portal," Eric says as he draws his Plasma sword from it's recharge rack and fires it up and starts leading Kain oncec again

(OOC Can you set the scene? Because these are the things attacking your city....I do not know how you would want it. Can you write it up please?)

((Sure))

(Go ahead then lol! Describe it because we are there right?)

((I'm working on it))

(Np, post when you are ready.)

((ok. I should be ready soon))

Aztereth's wing-like appirations seem to glow brighter with fury. "I came to this plane of exsistance for but one purpose: The hunting of demons and their kin. I will meet your father, but I will not linger long. I will depart after one of your hours, with or without you."

No one noticed as Balfar walked up behind Kain and Eric and continued his observations. He was still confused as to where these demons had come from but it didn't particulary bother him. As a small demon jumped at him he wedged his clawed hand into the creature, tearing out the heart and quickly feeding on it before anyone noticed. He then returned his hand to human form and followed Kain.

Aztereth's wing-like appirations seem to glow brighter with fury. "I came to this plane of exsistance for but one purpose: The hunting of demons and their kin. I will meet your father, but I will not linger long. I will depart after one of your hours, with or without you."

"Calm down. I don't particularly want to see my father anyway." Simon snarled. "But since we're here, it needs to be done. This is happening in his backyard, and as pleasing as it would be for him to be ripped to pieces by an angry demon..."

((Can you feel the love?))

Kigari's breath caught in her throat at the sight of the portal. "My god... if I don't get Kain to Roania, then..."

Kigari's breath caught in her throat at the sight of the portal. "My god... if I don't get Kain to Roania, then..."

The potral was growing stronger........ dark energy was now easily flowing through the temple, establishing a strong outpost on this world. Back in the alter room the three remaining demons began directing the dark energy to certain tasks. First of all..... the sun was now competely blocked. As they chanted, three more demons sprawled through the portal. These demons were 6th circle and would be very useful in subduing Kain.

"I can arrange that." Aztereth says in his typical no-nonsense tone. The appirations flutter around him. "My wings would have served me well in this plane of exsistance."

"Hmm? Could... no!" Simon shook his head. "Ah well. Too late now."

_________________

Richelieu snarled. NO! NOT YET! He searched his office. Something, there must be something...

((You are leaping rather ahead.))

"Will the old man see us or not? I have hellspawn to slay." Aztereth says in annoyance, seemingly eyeing his sword.

OOC: If any of you have played any of the diablo II games, he resembles the Archangel Tyreal (SP?).

"He'll see us."

Simon lead Aztereth to the Darquis family residence. He unlocked the door and led the creature inside.

A voice sprang from the darkness. "So, the prodigial son returns."

http://images.google.com.au/images?q=tbn:v8aDl72-zxoC:ron.heavengames.com/gameinfo/nations/russia/lenin.jpg

Duke Leopold Darquis

Chief of Foreign Affairs

OOC: Creature? He's a fallen Archangel.

IC: "Duke Darquis I presume?"

"That's right." The voice was biting, harsh. Not a jot of emotion. "Who are you?" Leopold stepped out of the shadows, flanked by two soldiers. "Simon, what is this creature, and why is he in Roania? Isn't it your duty to destroy these things?"

"Father, the Cardinal said that"

"I care not for the Cardinal. I am the law in Fort Derricks. Now, beast, do you have a name?" If Aztereth was paying attention, he would have felt tremendous power in the old man.

OOC: I never liked Tyreal. All he did was sit there and tell you what to do.

IC: The new demons looked around the temple. It was almost unrecognizable from its original state. The largest demon approached the three smaller.

How goes the mission?

The hunter demon replies.

A new breed is seeing to it. He has run into other factors, but he will get Kain here.

Good. When he does arrive, cease the sword. It must be captured so we can bend its will to our own purposes.

OOC: Did you watch the movies between the the first and second acts, and the final movie in Lord Of Destruction? He kicks some major ass! Just something to compare my character's looks to.

IC: "CREATURE?! Old man, I am no mere creature. I am a fallen Archangel."

((Nice.))

There is a poof of smoke.

http://images.google.com.au/images?q=tbn:ODx2JvPT6GEC:www.proeto.com/pix/meph.jpg

"Don't be too sure about that." Mephisto smiled. "And don't look at me like that. I was tempting humans when Lord Arithon was only number 4 on the rank list." He pulled out a cigar. "Still, times change, times change."

OOC: Totally confused... Directed at me or someone else?

To Arithon.

Mephisto isn't going to pop into a room with an Inquisitor in it, is he?

OOC: Thought that was the old guy transforming, to show up Aztereth. Looks a bit like him in the face.

OOC: Did you watch the movies between the the first and second acts, and the final movie in Lord Of Destruction? He kicks some major ass! Just something to compare my character's looks to.

IC: "CREATURE?! Old man, I am no mere creature. I am a fallen Archangel."

((Does it? Odd. Best Mephistopheles pic I could find.))]

"OLD MAN?" Leopold barked. "Fool! What are you doing in Roania?"

"I have been sent by divine forces to close the demon portal forming in the mortal realm, as a way to atone for my most grevious crimes." Aztereth says harshly, angered by the man's insult.

"Demon portal?" Leopold looked closely at Simon. "What Demon Portal?"

"Father, there is a portal in the Gateway temple. Apparently, it's opening. We went up there, but it was gone."

The fire crackled. Leopold just glared at them. "And you are here why?"

"Because I thought it would be right to warn of you that."

"Can you help us, or should I just remove your head and set it on your desk for your secretary to find tomorrow?" Aztereth suggests with his booming laugh. His faceless visage seems to stare into the very soul of the Duke.

"You think yourself amusing, creature. This weakling who calls himself my son refuses to use his power to kill. I have no such qualms." Fire flicked from his hand and into one of the guards. The unfortunate screamed in agony and died. "I will aid you, by allowing you to stay in this city."

Aztereth's booming laughter echoes throughout the base. "I have fought demons in the nineth layer of hell during my banishment. That did not kill me, nothing short of an angelic sword will kill me, and I am honored to be given this second chance to prove my worth to my Lord."

OOC: Aztereth is one BAD mofo.

12 hours later.

_____________

"Great. He might not have been able to kill you, but he certainly was able to lock us inside this cell." Simon said bitingly to Aztereth.

The fallen angel strides over to the door, and feels about the hinges. He shrugs and slams his fist into the door, knocking it across the hall. "Why does this man, who is your father, treat you so poorly?"

"It's a long story. Let's just say that he's not a religious man." Simon looked outside. No guards.

"He would do well to become a pious man. My fury against him knows no bounds. I do not enjoy confined spaces." Aztereth says with an angry edge in his usually calm voice.

"That would be worth watching." Simon said.

OOC: i'm slightly confused. Who and where is mephisto?

IC: The larger demon sensed an aura of evil....... not familiar to him.

What is this?

The demon vanished from the alter room within the temple and appeared in front of a small, innocent looking girl. At first the demon was surprised, then he grinned displaying his menacing fangs.

You are not what you appear to be little one. Perhaps you may be of some assistance to our cause.

OOC2: Der Fuhrer Dyszel...... this is your que.

((Mephisto is the demonic shopkeeper. He's taking a look at what the boys in red are doing.))

Mephisto looked around. "Like what you've done with this place." He ground his cigar into one of the lesser demons.

OOC: he's in the temple????

IC: Balfar looked at the portal. It was much less stable than the one being made back in the temple. Something was keeping it open but only just.

"Look for some sort of power source! This portal is not very strong."

OOC: Yeah. You want to tell Mephistopheles he can't go where he wants?

IC: Kigari looked around. "I don't see anything!"

The demons all looked at Mephisto.

What do you want? We have work to do.

-----------------

Balfar couldn't find the power source to the portal either.

"Can you at least see the portal? Perhaps some energy fluctuations will destablise it."

"Hmm? Oh, just looking around." Mephisto pulled out a card. On it was a horse's hoofprint. "Not surprised you don't recognise me. But you should recognise the hoofprint."

The demons stared at the card. Completely frozen it was minutes before one of them communicated.

Lord..... Mephisto?

"Do not assume anything. I have been harassed by people long enough either asking for my help, or arguing who is the worthy cause. Yet no one tells me what the frell is needed to be done!"

Kain continued on, almost ignoring her, he walked higher up the path in the mountin.

"Oh really? But what of your dreams Kain? Have they not been haunting you? I can help"

"Do not assume anything. I have been harassed by people long enough either asking for my help, or arguing who is the worthy cause. Yet no one tells me what the frell is needed to be done!"

Kain continued on, almost ignoring her, he walked higher up the path in the mountin.

"Oh really? But what of your dreams Kain? Have they not been haunting you? I can help"

"You cannot help. My dreams are not what haunts me. My own actions haunt me, my own punishment is enough. My curses I bear, and they are hard burdens to carry. Do not concern yourself with my own wounds, they can never heal, not now at least for what I have done."

(OOC Cue for Phalanx to describe the portal and demons and stuff so I can rp it, I do nto know how he wants it.)

Aztereth's eyeless gaze falls apon Simon. "And why is that?"

((Just do what ever I'm to tireed to make some big ass post))

The demons stared at the card. Completely frozen it was minutes before one of them communicated.

Lord..... Mephisto?

"That's right." He looked around. "So, how's Arithon doing with my old pad?"

"Do not assume anything. I have been harassed by people long enough either asking for my help, or arguing who is the worthy cause. Yet no one tells me what the frell is needed to be done!"

Kain continued on, almost ignoring her, he walked higher up the path in the mountin.

"Oh really? But what of your dreams Kain? Have they not been haunting you? I can help"

"You cannot help. My dreams are not what haunts me. My own actions haunt me, my own punishment is enough. My curses I bear, and they are hard burdens to carry. Do not concern yourself with my own wounds, they can never heal, not now at least for what I have done."

"An end to your pain will be arranged, if you don't come with me. This portal is as nothing compared to what is happening in Roania."

"Kain just get to Roania and I'll handel the portal here. Just help me get there," Eric says as he runns

"Nah. You'll need me. For a man, you're not that bad." Kigari leapt next to him. "We can't cut off the power, so this is what we're going to do. You keep the demons away from me. I'll shut off the portal." She grimaced. "If I die, take my armor to the HRI building."

The demons stared at the card. Completely frozen it was minutes before one of them communicated.

Lord..... Mephisto?

"That's right." He looked around. "So, how's Arithon doing with my old pad?"

Lord Arithon is well. We are attempting to open a permanent portal between our worlds so he can conquer this one.

----------------
Balfar walks up to Kain.

"If you are done here...... we must get to Roania, quickly."

"Both of you go. I'll finish my family's work here," Eric says as he removes his helmet and his chest armor

IC: The larger demon sensed an aura of evil....... not familiar to him.

What is this?

The demon vanished from the alter room within the temple and appeared in front of a small, innocent looking girl. At first the demon was surprised, then he grinned displaying his menacing fangs.

You are not what you appear to be little one. Perhaps you may be of some assistance to our cause.

The lady giggled and smiled sweetly. She stepped toward the demon still smiling, her aura growing stronger in the presence of this demon.

Her sweet and innocent voice sang out, "Why hello there. Perhaps, I will be of some assistance."

With that, she accepted to offer assistance to this demon. She stood there, awaiting her first orders.

http://www.angelfire.com/nj2/mina/images/WickedLady7.jpg

OOC: Have I missed this one as well? :?

Eric dashed towards the portal that the demons were exiting from. The army was forming up again for a final attack on the city.
(Cue realy cool fighting music)
The demon hords were never expecting a lone mortal to jump from a skelitan of a building into the hord with only a sword. Eric landed on the demon comander and impaled his blade into the demon's face killing it instantly. Eric quickly was swormed by lesser demons but continued to kill them off. He slowly made his way to the portal. Demon by demon he made his way to the end of this evil.

OOC: Have I missed this one as well? :?

((Wait until the action reaches Roania, Tib.))

{What's this 'invalid session' crap? I spent an hour putting together a shopfront, it said invalid session, I returned to my previous page, and all my work was deleted!}


"Glad to hear it boys, glad to hear it. By the way, be careful with the Brightblade. We spent a great deal of time sealing that bastard up, don't undo it all on a whim." Mephisto sniffed, and disapeared.

_____________________

Kigari leapt right next to Eric. "You're doing it all wrong! HOLY BANISHMENT!" The demons before them were scattered.

___________________

Simon looked around. "I'll tell you later. Let's get back to the temple."

"Get out of here. This is my job and I mean to finish it!" Eric shouts when suddenly he is stabed through the back with a demon's sword. Eric now strugling to stand up straight kills his attacker and starts stumbling around.
"Go get out of here," Eric says weakly as he stumbles closer to the portal and falls through it. Suddenly the portal starts to glow brighter and brighter

"Imbecile!" Kathryn reaches in and grabs him. "Just like a man." She pulls out a Soother and runs it over the wound, closing it. "If you want this done, let me help, or get out of the way! I have nothing to live for."

((Eric already fell through. Besides this is gona be so cool if he stays in))

((Suit yourself))

Kathryn dives in after him. "You're not getting rid of me that easy. This is my job. I have nothing else in my life."

Suddenly the portal starts closing slowly while a strange ligt starts striking at the demons slaughtering them. "Get out now. I'm the only one who can can close this portal," Eric says

"Not on your life." She delivers a punishing backhand to his face. "Next time you tell me to leave..."

:?: whaaaaaaaaaaaaa???????????????????????????????

Eric picks up Kathryn and throws her out the exit from the demon plane. Eric watches as his hopes of ever seeing his sister again disapper for ever. He sighs as the portal closes.

"YOU BASTARD!" Kigari ((Don't know why I was typing Kathryn. Must have gotten confused between threads)) charges at the portal. It seals shut. "No!"

All that can beheard on the otherside of the portal is a ghostly goodbye

"I swear, I will get you out of there for the sheer pleasure of ripping your head off!"

Balfar watches Eric dive into the portal.

"He won't return."

He then faces Kain.

"We must leave. This portal may be sealed but the other isn't."
_______________________

The demon looks down on the girl.

You shall act as a force of good. Can you hide your aura? Then you shall go to Kain and draw him to the temple where we shall kill him and take his sword. Do you understand?

_________________

The demons stood mute as mephisto vanished. They decided to take his warning with great care. They immediately began spawning wards and charms around the temple to hold the sword in place.

"Let us depart then to the other portal" Kain said to Balfor and continued on. He did not completely trust him but he had no choice.

Kigari turned. "The bastard... yes. Come, you two. We have a long way to travel."

Kain could not let the Brightblade go. It was the only thing sustaining him currently...without it Kain would thirst thus leading to his destruction. He could not let it go.....not yet. There must be another way he thought....another way to seal it.

((He's smart enough to know what would happen to him if he drank blood, then))


Kigari shuddered. "All right. My partner is in Roania. Both of you, grab me... not there, thank you Balfar. Good." She rubbed one of her rings.

They simmered, and disapeared.

And reapeared. Kain right on top of Simon, Balfar on top of Aztereth.

(OOC He certainly knows....)

Kain was angrered by this instant teleportation and crowded falling on top of each other. He got off almost falling as he did so and looked around.

"Everyone fine?" Kain asked, not really caring for the answer. His sword was sheaved on his back.

Simon leapt back with an oath. "YOU!" He drew his sword. Kigari took notice and backhanded him.

"Quiet. We need him around."

"What?" Kain turned to see Simon. Kain disliked inquistors for thier innate prejudice and thier lack of ability to think things logically. they saw things as black and white, good and evil. Kain had once thought like this before, but then he saw many things, and began to see grey. The fine distincintion between good and evil became less aparant, the lines became blurred and Kain was not so quick to judge.

"Is there a problem?" Kain asked honestly.

"After what you did in the Marsh, I should think so." Simon Darquis II replied hotly. Kigari slapped him again. "Ouch." There was a booming laugh.

"How touching. You two should marry. You'd get along like a house on fire." Mephisto stepped out of a smoke cloud. "Evening all." He tipped his helmet.

Kain found no problem with how he spoke in the marsh. He had good reason. But he did not bear grudges like that, Simon would not be able to learn yet unfortunatly. It was one lesson he would have to learn by himself.

"Evening." kain said cooly, ignoring Simon's outburst. It would do them no favors if he defended himself. He no longer cared for the bickering of ignorant children.

Mephisto turned to Kain. "That's not what I'm here for. I want to see the sword." Mephito spoke in words which brooked no argument. Not that Kain, a creature of darkness, could argue. Mephisto leant down and put his face on an even level with the Brightblade. "Hello. Enjoying yourself? Just here to ensure you stay locked up."

"I decide when it shall be freed. It has been trapped long enough, no being deserves to be trapped like that, for that long. It is keeping it's end of the bargin, I will be keeping mine. As they say, it is the lesser of the two evils I choose." Kain remarked, and kept the sword slightly away from him. The Brightblade knew Kain would keep his word. He had to.

"Don't be too sure." Mephisto pulled out his card and pressed it to Kain. "You think that the Inquisitors will kill you painfully? Think they have power? They can't even move!" Indeed, Kigari, Simon and Aztereth were frozen. "I want to speak to the blade!"

Mephisto began to metamorphasize, going from

http://images.google.com.au/images?q=tbn:ODx2JvPT6GEC:www.proeto.com/pix/meph.jpg

to

http://www.jilaensherwood.com/winged%20devil.jpg

YOU'RE OUT OF YOUR LEAGUE! GIVE ME THE BLADE!

"Give you the blade? He decides when he leaves, and to whom. I give no pretense that I enslave it, we work for each other for our advantage. Speak to it then." Kain said cooly as he released his grip form the sword, thier spirits leaving each other, and Kain felt the hunger once again. He coudl tolerate it for a while....but he would die if he should not find sustinace from the blade or from an immortal.

"Why do you summon me?" The Brightblade spoke with a calm voice, it was echoy and insainly deep, one of infinate knowledge as though it knew everything, that everything was planned.

You know full well why I summon you. What is this nonsense Arithon is going through? Calling in the Lady? Do I have to start taking an active hand in things again? Do you know what that would mean?

(OOC Check you T-grams. Answer if you can. If not, I will work around it)

((Mephisto (Full name, Mephistopheles) took over from Satan several hundred years before the thread. He only stayed around for a limited time, instead preferring to leave the demon realm to its own devices. The brightblade managed to take hold of most of it, and acted so horrible (going above and beyond standard demonic behavior) that Arithon formed a revolt and got Mephisto to come and lock the blade away. Arithon is currently master of Hell. The Lady is an interloper, and Mephisto doesn't trust her. And nor should Arithon))

OOC2: I think that works. Check with Arithon.

"I do not know of what he plans. I have missed history, I have been trapped here for so long now. But soon I shall be free. But you are asking the wrong demon. What do you know of current events, I have not had the oppertunity to oversee the politics of the other realms due to this enchantment upon me."

"[B]I do not know of what he plans. I have missed history, I have been trapped here for so long now. But soon I shall be free. But you are asking the wrong demon. What do you know of current events, I have not had the oppertunity to oversee the politics of the other realms due to this enchantment upon me.[B]"

YOU SHALL NOT BE FREE UNTIL I CHOOSE TO FREE YOU!

((G2G))

"Wrong. I choose when and how. Not you. Now, if you want any kind of assistance from me, tell me of the current events, and some of what I have missed when I have been gone. It would help these people understand the gravity of the situation, yes?" The Brightblade was not shaken at all by the angry demon ahead of it. It had enountered worse. Itself.

Balfar watched in silence as the brightblade and mephisto communicated. He knew this story well and he heard nothing new. He was concerned that the brightblade stay trapped though. Finally he spoke up.

"What is this lady?"

OOC: works fine for me.

((Hey did you seal the other portal?))

(OOC Kain is not in charge of that...someone said they where going to do it.)

((Hope it stays open. Eric is coming back))
Eric wandered the demon world alone for some time. Suddenly a demon from behind him with a horibly mutated arm stabed his right shoulder. Eric fell down in pain. Then he ripped the weapon from his shoulder and threw it through the demon's face.

(OOC I am bored. I will give a description of the demon realms.)

The demon realms has a sky of burning and flame, a sea of impenetrable mass of smoke and fire which suffocates the land. The ground itself is warped, with lava running in streams across many paths, great organaic looking spires belching acidic smog, and harpies flying in the background. The terrain has little life upon it, some of the ground was alive twisted and buckled in pain. In places, the ground would try to attack you, trying to bring another to thier death.

Eric continued walking ignoring the pain in his shoulder he was trying to reach the othe rportal that had opened in Roania hoping that he may escape there

OOC: The portal isn't actually open in Roania. It will be permanently open when the brightblade is captured. It is also surrounded by many many demons. Sorry to burst your bubble but Eric isn't getting through that way.

IC: The drake lords swooped downwards, towards Eric. Once in range they unleashed searing balls of demonic flame in an attempt to rid this of this defiant human.

Kigari thought deeply. After the... well, she wasn't entirely sure what had happened, the group had found itself on the way to the Gateway temple. She sent out questing ideas.

Simon looked as if at any moment he would leap upon Kain and destroy him.

Balfar stood silently, awaiting some sort of action. He could feel the tension in the room and was not about to break it.

--------------

The demons continued their spells. By the time they were done the brightblade would be able to do nothing but observe as Lord Arithon's forces plagued this world.

Mephisto appeared in Hell. "Nice to be back. You, go get me Arithon." He pointed to an imp. "I want to know his plans. And if the big boss is going to be angry."

((Hell as a corporation... makes sense, no?))

____________

Simon spat. "Let's go, before father wakes up."

The imp ran off toward the volcanic castle that Lord Arithon resided in.

"Master. LLLLord Mephisto is here."

I see. I shall see him then.

Arithon appeared next to Mephisto on an explosion of flame.

Mephisto. What brings you to the realm of the demonic?

Mephisto decided to take his true form.

Nothing much. I want to check on things, see if Big S needs to be informed. I also want to know if your demons are taking every possible precaution to ensure that the lady doesn't make any gains here, or that... the creature... doesn't escape

I have noticed the lady. She shall not intervene with my plans. The spells are being put in place as we speak to ensure the creature remains within the sword. The next time the barrier is torn I shall send in some specialized spell casters infused with my blood. It shall remain in the sword.

Mephisto returned to human form. "Excellent. Did you get approval from the Head Office? You know he so likes to keep abreast of things." The Archdemon shuddered. "You'd think he'd trust us. So, just give me something to tell him. Good news, preferably. Something that will convince him it's safe to remain on holiday"

My forces are ready to pass through the portal once it is established. And Kain shall be arriving soon with the sword. Do we require Kain for any particular reason or shall we dispose of him?

"We should move..we need to get there now." kain said briskly as he continued on, following.

Balfar caught up with Kain.

"The temple has been corrupted significantly. It is possible you may not be able to see it. I cannot sense another portal, so I doubt it has opened yet. This portal takes longer to open because it is permanent."

" A possiblity yes. But what is the alternative?"

"If we cannot see the temple then we have a problem. Perhaps some sort of spell can be performed. But it is likely you won't have any problems because of your demonic side."

Eric saw the portal but he then noticed the demons as well. He felt a spark of strength inside of him as he removed his plasma sword and startedd to run at them not bothering to look at his wounded arm

The demons noticed Eric charge towards them. Within seconds the space between them was covered with projectiles ranging from fire balls to piosionous spines all heading toward Eric. The two specialized spell casters erected several walls of tormented spirits between the portal and Eric. These spirits would seize the soul of any who passed through their barrier.

OOC: When I say many demons. I'm talking almost all the forces of hell. I don't mean to spoil your character or anything but it is impossible for him to get through. There are literally thousands and thousands of demons there.

Eric starts blocking prokectiles left and right. He takes afew fire balls to his wounded arm but he feels nothing in it. He raises his arm in a atempt to smash a demon's skull in and looks horifyed at his arm. It has mutated into something from legends.
(just think Nightmare's arm from SC2)

The demon slashes forward across the side of Eric's head. The cut was not fatal but it would definately have a considerable effect on him. It reared back and lunged forward in an attempt to wedge its arm directly through Eric's torso.

Eric quickly did a spining side step then grabed the demon with his own demonic three finger arm and started crushing it.

((Now Nightmare's arm is something to fear))

OOC: where exactly did this arm come from. The demons didn't do it. Arm or no arm.... you aren't getting through my spirit walls :P

IC: Some of the demons hissed at this new attribute that Eric aquirred but the others continued to launche their deadly projectiles in an attempt to rid themselves of this human.

((It was from a difrent demon that attacked Eric. Well I'm off to school))
Eric quickly usedd his most recent kill as a sheild and almost as if a demon was inside of him he smiled evily

OOC: Cya.

IC: The demon Eric used as a shield was quickly destroyed from the bombardment of devastating attacks launched at it. The other demons decided to back off behind the spirit wall and launch attacks at him.

"If we cannot see the temple then we have a problem. Perhaps some sort of spell can be performed. But it is likely you won't have any problems because of your demonic side."

"Demonic side? What gave you the idea that I was half demon? But regardless, i could summon up a spell to locate it. Give me a moment..." Kain said quietly and methodicly opened up a tomb which had a dark red spine and black cover. He flicked throught the apges and scanned the ancient writing and memoried the text. The slammed the book shut and made it dissipate again.

"I am ready. Give me space, and do not disturb me." Kain warned.

Drawing the Brightblade, he did complex movements with the sword, swiping and slashing the air, a faint trail of red came with it. One of the abilitys taught to the user of the Brightblade.

_______________________

The demon looks down on the girl.

You shall act as a force of good. Can you hide your aura? Then you shall go to Kain and draw him to the temple where we shall kill him and take his sword. Do you understand?

_________________

OOC: I believe little ole me is late once again with posting here.

IC: The wicked lady's smile turns into a menancing grin, "Aura, I do not know what you are talking about. I have no aura." With that said, her evil presence vanishes and she appears to be just a sweet innocent girl.

((Small Idea. When you see a man with a demon inside of him what are your chances of capturing him and turning him lose against your enemys? Just small idea))

My forces are ready to pass through the portal once it is established. And Kain shall be arriving soon with the sword. Do we require Kain for any particular reason or shall we dispose of him?

Very good, Arithon. But if this fails, your ability to run Hell will be... shall we say, doubted?

_______________________


"Are you saying you can?" Kigari and Simon stared at the empty space.

Balfar looked slightly surprised. To his knowledge all vampires had a slight demonic side. But this was not the time.

"Shall we depart then? We must get to the temple before it is too late."

____________

I am very able to run hell. Conquering the human realm shall be a challange. A challange I welcome.

____________

The demon stood stone still as the evil aura of the lady disappeared.

Good. Now find Kain and lead him to the temple. Do what you must to mislead him.

Good. Remember, The Boss and me are always watching. Always Mephisto bowed and disapeared.

____________________

"That's odd. I always thought that vampires were demons." Simon spat at Kain.

Lord Arithon went back to his preperations for the invasion.

The wicked lady nodded her head in agreement and giggled. "So be it," she said. She stood there concentrating deeply on something. "Oh, there it is. I will be off now," she concluded as she gracefully turned around, her dress twisting between her legs, and headed toward a great power that she had sensed before. She walked on, the demon stared as she faded into the darkness, swiftly. She headed in with speed. Once given a mission, she would be fully devoted to it, and try more then her hardest to accomplish it, perferably with speed.

Good. Remember, The Boss and me are always watching. Always Mephisto bowed and disapeared.

____________________

"That's odd. I always thought that vampires were demons." Simon spat at Kain.

Kain snapped his head back and glared at Simon.

"For all my time I used to think like you. But now I do not see things so black and white, with clear cut definitions of good and evil. Your prejudice is paramount, thus leading to your folly. I shall allow you to wallow in your self-rightous, for your denial of truth was what I did, when I was mortal. I was never a human, but I see the good and evil in mankind, as I see it in vampires and demons. See beyond the black and white, to see the many shades of grey. For I have seen the human side of vampires, and now I behold the monsterousness of men."

Kain retorted, his words had a barbed tip, one which was a release for all the prejudice Kain had enddured from the inquistors.

Balfar spoke up.

"Now is not the time for petty squables. Let us continue."

___________

Once the girl disappeared the demon returned to the temple to add more power to the curses being put in place within the temple.

It seems we have some extra help.

"Agreed. I am tierd of this limitless prejudice. How much further?" Kain asked, he wanted to know how long he might have to live. without the blade, Kain would surely die due to lack of blood, his curse loomed heavily over Kain.

Balfar could just spot the temple on the horizon.

"If you can see it. It is in front of us on the horizon. It won't take us much longer."

Kain sighed. He could see it now....the looming darkness of the temple did not frighten Kain, it only made his responcibility that much more important. Kain might have to send the Brightblade out if his spells failed.
But then something occoured to him. One of his distrusted allys, Moebius might help.

Moebius was a mage, a human of some reasonable ability. Powerhungry and cruel, Kain still found him a useful ally in times of need. It did not make him any easier to tolerate however, the serpant would betray them all at the oppertunity for more power.

He would not be suited for this, but.....he might not have a choice. He thought about bringing him into this, and decided against it for the time being.

"What is the plan? How are we going to go about this?" Kain asked importantly.

He had his own ideas of how to do this, a complex array of spells, helped by the Brightblade. But they could be opposed and dispelled if the demons concentrated upon Kain. He would need a distraction, and protection. It would require all of his concentration. The spell could only attempt the spell once, and it was lengthy. Perhaps bringing in Moebius would be a good idea.

"We don't know if there are demons in there or not. It is obvious that the tear is big enough to allow dark energy to flow into the temple. I had just intended to walk in, carefully of course and see what we can do. Unless you have a better idea?"

Kain thought about this. He might have a better idea. A most ingenous idea of which Kain knew was risky but if it worked, it would be brillant. But could Kain trust Moebius enough for this plan to work...?

Kain decided this way was best.

Yes I do. Here it is...Kain began talk to the two by telephathy, when he was interupted by the appearance of someone new. A robed figure, dressed in a dark purple robe with yellow trimings appeared from a small blue portal.

"Kain. I have back to claim what is mine." The figure said in a calm and dramatic voice, his staff glowed a bright purple as Kain fell to his knees. The sword began to draw by itself, as it flew to the figures hand. Kain knew the man....he knew him very well...and knew to what he refered.

"Thank you. They shall be most pleased, and this world's fate is sealed. You have been most fun to play with Kain." The figure said as he began to walk back into the portal.

Kain was still paralysed on the floor by the mages staff, his fage contorted into pure rage. Without the Brightblade, Kain felt the hunger ten fold once more, he had not fed in weeks, his body cried out for the sustiance which the Brightblade provided.

The figure walked through the portal again, and reappeared within the temple, to hand over the Brightblade to the demons. The demons did not know of him, he was someone new, an outside force. But theyobviously knew each other.

Kain after the figure left, fell to the floor, his body crying out for blood. He knew he could not kill, but he had one vial of blood left. He reached for it from his trouser, opened it with his teeth and drank the red liquid. The feeling was pure enrgy being sent into Kain's body, as he began to get up. He enjoyed the experiance greatly, he had not fed in weeks, due to his curse.

"Damn! Why did that bastard betray me! He...he will die for this! We must hurry, there still might be time!" Kain called as he ran into a sprint to the temple.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Inside the temple, Moebius slowly formed.

"I bring a gift, rulers of this world and the next." Moebius said.

http://www.3dactionplanet.com/lok/Images/Characters/Sr2_Moebius.jpghttp://www.3dactionplanet.com/lok/Images/Characters/Sr_Moebius.jpg

(What Moebius looks like. If you want to act upon these events while they are taking palce, please do so, but Moebius will get the sword regardless.)

Eric fell to the ground weak from blocking the attacks. His breathing was much more radpid and his voice was almost demonic.

((Now is your chance to use him. And I love lunch hour))

Damn comp lab blocks out posting
No I'm talking Eric

(use him...? Who are you refering to, Moebius?)

The wicked lady watched as the figure of someone ran toward the direction she had just left from. She quickly moved behind a tree so that this person would not see her.

However, upon realizing that this was the power she felt before, she stepped out from her hiding and cut off his path to the temple.

She giggled.

NO! What is that foolish mage doing? Mephisto turned, using the dark pact the mage had entered into to grab his attention. Not finding it, he ran to the temple.

______________


Kigari and Simon looked askance. Then they smiled. "HOLY POWER!" A beam of light magic shot from them both, slamming into the area the temple had been. It began to appear before them. They ran forward, but... something stood in the way.

The demons noticed the the temple begin to shake slightly.

They have broken the spell.

The largest demon stared at Mobius.

Who are you and what are you doing here with that sword?
______________________

Balfar ran after Kain, very surprised at what had just happened. Then he noticed the figure in front of him. This is not what he had expected at all.
_________________________

Lord Arithon looked around his domain. His forces were prepared to enter the human world and things were almost ready on the other side. The something caught his eye. Several spells were active near the portal, between his forces and a lone figure. A human! He wandered over to the small being.

Human! What are you doing in my realm!?

Arithon towered over Eric. Eric was about the size of his toe talon.

http://www.digikitten.com/playhousev2/files/evilwill/firedemon.jpg

OOC: Lord Arithon is very big :shock:

edit: fixing up the thing with the sword.

Kigari and Simon squared off with the interloper...

((And the endgame begins. Let's save it for the weekend, when we might all be on at the same time.))

The sword does not mvoe from Moebius' hands, it is held fast in Moebius' clucthces. He begins to walk around the temple, looking over the demons.

"I am Moebuis, necromancer and old ally of Kain. I have come to make a deal. I want something in return for giving you this sword, for it has made my life in peril for betraying Kain." Moebius said quietly to the demons, self confidant as he held the blade. The Birghtblade gleemed a red colour, the inner faces of the demonic sword coming out with gleeful eyes.

------------------------------------------------------------

Kain continued to run up to the temple and ran up the steps. He would be up the steps in matter of seconds.

Balfar watched as the defences were activated. All the stone gargoyles came to life, all zombies and other creatures emerged and all the tainted animals flocked to the temple. Within a matter of seconds they were surrounding Kain. Nobody noticed as Balfar vanished.
____________

Kain has arrived. We must be quick. What do you want for that sword?

The other demons began reawakening layed spell patterns. Suddenly another three demons came through a brief portal.

We are here to aid in the defence of the portal.

Without warning Balfar strode through the walkway.

The first line of defences are holding Kain at the moment.

He pulled out the soul orb, closely examining it.

Moebius continued to circle, the sowrd in his hand gerowing brighter as Kain grew nearer to it. Moebius kept his face grim, as he knew of whatb he must do. He had to conintue.

"I want to become a a demon. not just any demon. A greater demon. I wish power over my enemys!" Meobisu asked.

-------

Kain charged through the gargolyes, but they blocked his path. One of them threw his fist at Kain, whioch Kain lept back from. Kain did not hjave tiome for this, he chanted a swift word as a phychic blast hit each agrgoly, making most of them shatter, the few which did survive the oncslaught held thier ground, still fighting the magic.

Kain charged through, his magicks swirling around him, he was enraged.

The temple could sense the magiks Kain was producing. It began raising it's own demonic defences to further hinder Kain. It reached out to his mind with images of feeding on humans. The ravens flocked into the temple and began attack Kain's face whilst the zombies were mere steps behind him. Several other distorted creatures also advanced upon him.
__________________

The larger demon stared at the necromancer.

This is within my power. Realize that even though you may become a demon you do not represent the forces of hell. If you have no problem with this then I shall agree to do so.

The three newly arrived demons began chanting and performing some sort of dark dance around the room. Balfar took no notice of them as he awaited Kain's arrival and the chance to try out his soul orb.

Eric looks up and says out load "Ah shit." Suddenly he falls to the ground in pain from the burns on his chest

OOC: Phalanix. Would you prefer that I just boot Eric out of hell instead of killing him? Or I could turn him into some sort of slave demon. It's up to you.

((Don't kill him I need him for another RP. But you can make the choice of slave or boot to the ass))

OOC: Boot to the ass! :lol:

IC: Lord Arithon levitated the limp body into his hand. If Eric were awake he would be screaming from the intense evil he felt from Arithon's presence.

You are lucky I am in a good mood human. Since your world is about to be invaded and put under my control I shall send you there to experience it firsthand.

Lord Arithon brought his arm back and threw Eric into the sky with all his demonic might. Eric was travelling so fast that he tore through the barrier between the human and demon worlds and was once again back on his own world.

OOC: It is up to you where he lands. Although most don't escape hell alive. Eric is severely injured from the fires of hell and his other demonic encounters. But he should live.

Kain felt the powerful forces against him. He knew that there would be, one of the reasons why he had made this plan. He sent the evil forces recoiling for the moment, then concentrated on breaking down the defences of the temple.

Moebius now!Kain called to him, Moebius knew of the punishment for faiure. He already held his exicutioner if he failed.

Kain slammed his own magics against the temples, but it was not enough, the colours flying from Kain's fingires, every fibre in his being working against the temple. But it was not enough. But with Moebius....

Moebius turned and launched the Brightblade into the door, leaving Moebius open for attack on the demons. But Moebius knew the alternative.

The Birghtblade hollared it's call as it's own force appiled to the door, the magic being attacked from both beings, Kain and the demon within the sword.

A few seconds passed, the door began to give way as Moebius turned to the demons, his staff raised in ready for a spell. He began to chant magic.

The door burst open as the magics failed, and Kain walked into the chamber, wielding the Brightblade. But he was not close to Moebius, Moebius could still die from the demons, and he knew it.

Now finish the plan Moebius!Kain cried to Moebius, the demon and the vampire joined together once more, Kain's grip was strong, Moebius would have never been able to take the sword from him if he tried. Kain had allowed it so that he could get into the temple. He only needed it to seem convincing.

Kain began to walk in the center of the room, and prepare for the spell, while Moebius prepared to fight for his life against four demons. Moebius was powerful, but Kain knew that Moebius would lsoe against them. Moebius had no choice. The zombie haordes where on Kain's tail, but he had another ally to rely on to defend him. The Brightblade.

((And the endgame begins. Let's save it for the weekend, when we might all be on at the same time.))

OOC: Let's just wait until everyone is here. Is Moebius going to die? If the demons are going to be driven back into hell they will not go without doing significant damage.

((And the endgame begins. Let's save it for the weekend, when we might all be on at the same time.))

OOC: Let's just wait until everyone is here. Is Moebius going to die? If the demons are going to be driven back into hell they will not go without doing significant damage.

(Quite possibly. Or hurt him and Kain extremely badly. Kain only needs to cast a spell to close the portal, but that will require time and total concentration, so an atatck could disrupt the spell. There is all to play for on the demon part, this is not going to be a one sided victory by either side. Not by a long shot.)

((Ok where should Eric land? also lets save the endgame))

The lady stood there appalled. She did not like being ignored, yet alone practically even noticed. She fumed, thinking to herself, "Since when have women been treated so rudely."

She was angry now, releasing her aura of evil again. She could be polite, she could be nice, and she could interact with people their whole lives, without her showing them her evilness.


http://www.angelfire.com/nj2/mina/images/WickedLady8.jpg


However, she did not like being ignored. She walked on toward the temple and stopped outside the temple. Numerous powerful forces were here. More importantly, evil forces were here. A henious and crooked smile spread across her innocent face.

She concentrated on the evil powers, calling them toward her. She prepared herself for a fight, by gathering the strength of power, that was abudant here.


http://www.angelfire.com/nj2/mina/images/WickedLadypower.jpg


Off of topic:
Note: I am not angry, I was want my character to do something. I just wanted to clarify that I am not angry about any of this. Sorry for the intrusion.

Aztereth stood behind Simon and his new companion. He laughs, and a bright light appears in his left hand, slowly forming itself into a second sword. "I stand ready to return the minions of hell to their rightful resting place."

The lady stood there appalled. She did not like being ignored, yet alone practically even noticed. She fumed, thinking to herself, "Since when have women been treated so rudely."

Simon tapped the lady on the shoulder. "M'lady, you are under arrest under the Use of Demonic powers act of 1354. You have the right not to be fed to pirahnas.

Suddnly Eric fell and hit the ground on Earth once more leaving a fairly large creater outside of the portal site

OOC: Just thought I'd let you guys know. Balfar really wants to use the soul orb on someone. Any volunteers?

((Kain. Or Mephisto is going to use it on Balfar.))

((What kinda damage will this do? If it isn't to bad you can use Eric. If it sucks out souls use it on Eric. Just don't RP the results))

((It permanently removes a soul from the target's body))

((Ok use it on Eric. He has a demon in him. Only if it takes out the demon))

((Kain. Or Mephisto is going to use it on Balfar.))

Balfar is a demon. He doesn't have a soul.

The orb removes souls...... not demonic possessions.

((In that case: Kain. Or Mephisto is going to devour Balfar's essence.))

OOC: Ok. But I want to use the soul orb on someone. Perhaps the necromancer? Or one of the humans?

What does Mephisto have against Balfar?

OOC: Ok. But I want to use the soul orb on someone. Perhaps the necromancer? Or one of the humans?

What does Mephisto have against Balfar?

OOC: That Balfar is a useless idiot who hasn't done anything to stop Kain.

(OOC You are not taking the soul out of Kain. Definatly not. Moebius..perhaps. That would be quite interesting. Can we get the fihgting done, and the reaction of the demons?)

OOC: Ok. But I want to use the soul orb on someone. Perhaps the necromancer? Or one of the humans?

What does Mephisto have against Balfar?

OOC: That Balfar is a useless idiot who hasn't done anything to stop Kain.

Balfar has been leading Kain into a trap....... but the necromancer screwed it up.

Roania said to wait until the weekend so everyone is on at the same time roughly.

Simon tapped the lady on the shoulder. "M'lady, you are under arrest under the Use of Demonic powers act of 1354. You have the right not to be fed to pirahnas.

The lady just laughed as she spun around and swung out her leg, coming in contact with person's backs of their knees. She giggled as he fell to onto his knees.

"Under arrest. That is quite funny. You want me under arrest. Try and catch me."

She walked backward, disappearing into the temple.

Eric already up and somehow the demon in him dead ran up the creater wall and felt the Earth's wind once more

Kain needed his rear covered from the zombies which where sprouting behind him. Kain knew he could not cast the spell if he was dealing with zombies.

"Balfar! I ned you to defend me while I cast the spell!" kain cried as he decaptitated one of the shambling zombies.

Moebius was standing, defending Kain as long as he could from the demons. He was ready for them with his spells.

((Want Eric to help Kain?))

(OOC You can do, but wait for Balfars responce. He can betray Kain then, and then a fight will ensue. You could either help Kain against the zombies after, help Moebius or help him fight Balfar. I think this will work, that is if Balfar still wants to betray Kain)

((Well you are going to see zombies flying anyways))
Eric ran towards a horde of zombies he saw and began beating them off. He looked over at his hand and saw he still had his demonic arm.

Simon tapped the lady on the shoulder. "M'lady, you are under arrest under the Use of Demonic powers act of 1354. You have the right not to be fed to pirahnas.

The lady just laughed as she spun around and swung out her leg, coming in contact with person's backs of their knees. She giggled as he fell to onto his knees.

"Under arrest. That is quite funny. You want me under arrest. Try and catch me."

She walked backward, disappearing into the temple.

"Kigari, help me out!" The two inquisitors chased after The Lady.

Aztereth lets loose a blast of energy, the glowing white ball crashing into the legs of the strange woman, grounding her for the moment. "You will not escape me!" He shouts in his thunderous voice.

The two inquisitors readied their holy weapons.

The lady, inside the within the protection of the dark forces, walks around, not taking notice to anyone or anything within it. She laughes to herself.

She hides in the darkness awaiting whatever is to come.

"It seems your prey has eluded you, Inquisitor. Will we give chase?" Aztereth says, raising his right sword and pointing it at the temple.

"Let's." Kigari and Simon entered the temple.

The lady is amazed at the determination of her prosecutors. She stands hidden in the darkness, hiding her dark aura, lest they sense her.

Eric smiled and usedd his new arm's strength and continues to beat off zombies one by one sending them flying.

The lady is amazed at the determination of her prosecutors. She stands hidden in the darkness, hiding her dark aura, lest they sense her.

"We have chocolate!"

"Do you really think that will work?" Kigari asked.

"Um, it worked on you." Kigari rounded and slapped him to the ground.

The lady giggled to herself.

"Chocolate. Now why would a group of inquistors have chocolate on them. Moreover, why would they offer it to me," the lady thought as she remained in the darkness.

((Hey notice the flying zombies already))
Eric still smiling as he continues beating away the zombies.
"I love this job," he says to himself

The lady giggled to herself.

"Chocolate. Now why would a group of inquistors have chocolate on them. Moreover, why would they offer it to me," the lady thought as she remained in the darkness.

"Strange. You don't get flying zombies this time of year. That's a march thing." Shaking his head, Simon looked around for the lady. "No? You don't like chocolate? Well, maybe you'll like this. BLESSED LIGHT!"

Eric suddenly burst through the horde and saw Kigari and smirked

Balfar runs up to Kain and kicks a zombie.

"I've got your back Kain."

As soon as Kain takes his attention of Balfar, he turns into his demon form and impales Kain through the beack with one of his elongated talons.

The other demons howled with rage as Moebius aided Kain. They began casting several more spells and unleashing their pre made traps. An asortment of monsters were being formed out of the very walls of the temple and sent to attack those who would challange the demons.

The lady gringes from the power of the light. Her dark hiding place, no longer hidden by the dark.

She walks out, without remorse nor fear nor any emotion.

"Have you not come to play."

She began to laugh and smile innocently.

"Why do you not like me."

"Miss me!" Eric shouts out as he runns forward

The lady gringes from the power of the light. Her dark hiding place, no longer hidden by the dark.

She walks out, without remorse nor fear nor any emotion.

"Have you not come to play."

She began to laugh and smile innocently.

"Why do you not like me."

"Um, well..." Simon can't remember.

Kigari slaps him. "Because she's a demon!... Eric?"

"Who's Eric?"

OOC: Have I missed this one as well? :cry: This is getting annoying...

OOC: Tib. There is a thread down the page "Roania Terrorist Attack: Aftermath" That was where I told you to go.

Really? 'kay. Will do. ^_^

The lady laughes more evilly than before. Her innocence drained in her evil laugh.

"I am no demon. Do not confuse me for those beings."

She summoned a dark presence that surrounded her, giving her enough time to move back into the shadows.

"Well, you are evil. Now come with us, and we'll return you to the light."

The lady remained in the darkness. She thought on that vexing problem. To come back into the world of light would mean to face her past and she was not ready for that. To remain in darkness meant that she could live as she wished and act as she wished. The latter thrilled her more.

"No, I will not go to back to the light. You will not force me."

She laughed innocently. She took no notice to demons around the temple. She was completely focused on these inquistors.

"We don't want to hurt you, Lady. What is your name? Let us help you." Kigari said, kindly.

The lady stood there, contemplating on whether she should trust them or not. She did not know them and they did not know here. She did not know if this was a trap.

"I have no name. How could you help me."

"Surely you don't want to live like that." Kigari moved closer, talking in a soothing tone of voice.

"I already have and have grown quite used to it. I rather enjoy it."

The lady moves deeper into the darkness as Kigari moved closer to her.

"Lady, please come with us. We don't want to hurt you." Kigari said.

Off of topic:
Do not mind if my posts are late.

On topic:
The lady felt a hand on her shoulder and released her aura, knocking a demon off of her. She looked over at it and laughed.

"Silly little creatures they are."

The lady looks around for the other inquisitor.

"You friend is not here and where have they gone."

The lady looks around for the other inquisitor.

"You friend is not here and where have they gone."

Simon appeared behind her, grabbing her shoulders. "That's enough, Lady."

With a serious force, she jumped foreward and drove her legs into his chest, propelling herself from him. She flipped in the air like an acrobatic and landed lightly on her feet. She spun around to Kigari.

"You have got to try harder."

She walked backward amid the chaos of the temple, luring the inquisitors toward the demons and peril.

"Ouch." Simon said. Kigari looked at the Lady.

"Please, Lady. Let us help you. What would your mother think?"

Her laughed ceased, immediately.

"I have no mother."

Her laughed ceased, immediately.

"I have no mother."

"Everyone has a mother, Lady. Think what she'd say!"

((Is it the real Reenee?))

Off of topic:
No, her character is based off of the plot twist, like that, but I modified the history behind this lady. I do not like to completely use a character's history, personality, etc... My cousin gave me the idea for this character and I just altered her a bit. The lady does have a very innocent side, but she can not come to meet it. Moreover, the lady's past is contraversial, so I will not post it just yet. She does not have a mother because of her past, and she is too caught up in revenge and wickedness to believe that she has any innocence.

OOC: Ah...

IC: "Lady, please let us help you." Kigari said.

Behind her, Simon began arming his gun.

OCC: Behind her as in me or you.

IC: The lady continued to walk backward.

OOC:Me.

IC: Simon fired. The bullet shot forward, filled with nerve serum. "This will slow her down."

The lady gasped and quickly threw up her arms, the bullet struck her hand. She looked down at her hand in disgust.

She summoned the evil from the room again.

Enraged she released the evil power at Simon, who had hit her hand.


http://www.angelfire.com/nj2/mina/images/WickedLady.jpg

Simon stumbled backwards. He collapsed, the blood draining from his face. Kigari ran to him. "No... Simon, are you all right?" She turned on the lady. "How could you? How..."

Bump

Balfar runs up to Kain and kicks a zombie.

"I've got your back Kain."

As soon as Kain takes his attention of Balfar, he turns into his demon form and impales Kain through the beack with one of his elongated talons.

The other demons howled with rage as Moebius aided Kain. They began casting several more spells and unleashing their pre made traps. An asortment of monsters were being formed out of the very walls of the temple and sent to attack those who would challange the demons.

Kain was relieved that he had support. He was preparing for the spell mentally, he never saw the blow coming.

Kain roared with pain, it filled the area with his anguish. Such incomprehenisble pain, it drove Kain mad, his body rocking from side to side in torment. The talon went straight through Kain, and he saw in horror as it protrodued from his stomach, covered with his own blood, dripping. The wound was healing, but extremely slowly. Kain felt drained by the attack. But he had the Brightblade.

"You....you will pay bastard for betraying me!" Kain roared as he stabbed backwards with the Brightblade, into the talon. The Brightblade was lethal to most beings, but to the demonic kind, it knew thier weakness for it was a demon too. It promised great pain, it's sword consumed in blue flame, the sword was acidic, as it burned through the talon.

Recoiling from the massive amount of damage the Brightblade would have done if it had continued, Balfar withdrew what was left of it's talon, letting Kain drop to the ground.

Kain fell onto the ground flat with a smack. Kain was groggy, but relieved that the pain was lessened. He was still bleeding, an he slowly got up and turned around, one arm holding onto his wound, the other hold the Brightblade weakly in the other. The wound was healing slowly, Cloak banadaged the wound with itself.

"You...you thought you could defeat me? Do you even know whom you face?" Kain bellowed to the demon. He could hear the fighting behind him between Moebius and the demons.

With his outstreached hand, he chanted quickly. Before Balfar could do anything, the spell was complete. A ball of light was above Kain, and it began to do it;s work. It shot out rays of elemental power, fire beams which burned hotter than any natural flame, water rays that collided and battered stronger than any tidal wave, earth pillars which trapped and smashed harder than any avalanche, concnetrated winds which parried and swept away harder than any whirlwind. Thousands of these rays where produced from the sphere, and it targeted Balfar and the zombies which came to close to kain.

The Brightblade left Kain's hand as it battled against Balfar too, as Kain got to work with his spell.


Moebius was struggling, he could not hurt the demons, it was not his intent to do so. He summoned up walls of the purest black, but within a few seconds they where breached. Moebius continued to constantly chant, his life protected by the defenced he had woven. The effort was exausting, Moebius was fighting for his life and his soul, he knew the alternitive to victory. He would die within his magic if he was going to die, each spell causing him damage.

Simon stumbled backwards. He collapsed, the blood draining from his face. Kigari ran to him. "No... Simon, are you all right?" She turned on the lady. "How could you? How..."

"HOLY POWER!" The angry Kigari summoned up a massive blast of light energy, not caring what it hit. It shot towards Kain.

Kain prepared his mind for the spell, it would be complex. The nature of spells is to change the fabric of reality to suit your needs. But when dealing with something of this magnitude, you needed to deal with two realitys, so the spell becomes a great deal more complex. Kain shut of his mind from the world around him, he calmed.

The bolt going for Kain hit into his flesh. But due to the nature of Kain, of what occoured when he was turned, he had an unusual trait about him. His skin could absorb magic. The bolt went into Kain, and his green leathery flesh asborbed the magic, urraveling it and transfering it to the spell he was casting. His skin glowed a brilliant blue, it was around the maximum amount of magic Kain could absorb. Kain was still a fledgling, so it was not paticulary potent.

OOC: the demons really have to do something big..... they can't kill Kain and they will eventually lose..... but they need someone to kill. Moebius?

IC: Balfar jumped back in pain as his talon was attacked. Before he could react he was bombarded with Kain's elemental spell. Within minutes he was on the ground, lost in a black unconsciousness. Before Balfar collapsed he withdrew the soul orb and passed it on to another demon.

One of the higher demons spotted Kain casting his spell. He roared with complete fury as he began charging up a spell of dark lightning aimed at Kain.

The metamorphasis demon shifted into a massive beast covered in rock hard hide and extremely sharp spines. It began a rampage towards Moebius and the inquisitors.

Moebius saw the demon coming towards Kain. he reacted by spreading his spells further, now blood was coming from his mouth, he was half bent over in pain but he continued. His concentrated most of his defence on helping Kain, as a white light shielded Kain. But Moebius looked in horror as his own defences had flickered and died. he desprately tried to raise them again...but the demons would have time to react.

Kain began chanting. He began to dance, his eyes closed and a small circle coming from his feet, a deep purple, with runes within it. Kain's voice was not one voice, but six in perfect unison, thier song was harmonous.

"Oh spirits of the land I do invoke thee to aid me this day. A mighty wound between the world of this and the next has been torn, lend me strength to heal it spirits! Kain began, his voice his own. Then he began to chant an ancient language.

He looked unto the single wave of reality, seeing the ebbs and flows of it. Then he looked unto the reality of the demon realm, how that sprialed, and at one point the two waves interwinded.

As Kain chanted these new words, he tried to make the possibility that the two waves slightly weaving themselves together, where not. Kain attempted to unravel the threads, and put them back in thier place. He started....

Iricth est yuak nala runis karazat tasar minoth parith. Thya oprith nithva firoth bjion. Firoth, jireth velma cir to sere..... Kain chanted, the elemental spirits joining his words, the circle grew larger around his feet, each segemtn took the colour of the elemental spirits. Fiery red for flame, ocean blue for water, natures green for earth, clear blue sky with clouds within it for the air. But all the spell was not over, Kain had the hardest part to complete yet....

The lady spoke sadly, for she did not mean to harm him. "But, he shot at me." Her words slowly faded and became silent, for the scream of agony from Kain drowned the temple.

She weilded around and watched the sceen unfold.

The lady saw the beast charge toward her way, heading for the inquisitors.

"No," she called out in a demanding voice and threw up her aura to create a protective barrier.

Kain's body was under immense strain...the world seemed to be supported by him, Kain was ready to collapse. But he did not. There was too much to lose and nothing to gain.

Kain continued to chant. He continued the elemental powers, and wove another force into the song, a deep subliminal which added structure to the song, the other voices seemed in harmony. Below Kain, a deep black emurged, darker than any shadow. Kain kept his eyes closed, his viens where bulging, he could barely contain this power let alone raise another.

I am only a fledgling! Why am I even attempting this! I will die as will everyone else! Why did I not...No! I will not lose!

Kain continued to dance and sing along with spirits, ready to bring the final spririt to which perfect harmony would be achieved.

((Can I get a short idea of what has happened. I hate reading supper long posts.))

)Everyone is at temple. Balfar betrayed Kain, he was atatcked. he atatcked back subduing him. Meanwhile in the temple, Moebius a wizard with Kain is defending himself from four demons but by saving Kain from a demon, he has left himself open. kain is currently casting a spell which would destroy all the demons and close the portal, but it takes constant concentration. So there you ahve it, sparing a few other charcter interactions in the place)

((Ok thats all I needed. Thanks. Want Eric to help out Kain?))

The lady watched Kain struggle to perform his spell. She watched intently.

( Yes, help out by fighting the demons attacking Moebius. You never know...Moebius might live through this....Kain is gunna hurt a great deal...)

Eric saw Kain atempting to cast a spell and another fighting off th demons. Eric started sprinting towards the two. On the way he grabed a zombie by the head with his demon arm and crushed it's skull and used it as a oversized club and began beating off demons
