Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ryuska awoke several hours later, and noticed the door, or more like wall panel, leading to Destiny's room was open. "You still here?" he sang out through the house. There wasn't a sound, other then the fan of his old computer that was running upstairs. He then noticed the note on the table.

He sat back and tilted his head towards the ceiling. "Hmm... only a few more hours before the mission..." He said before he began to walk around getting everything ready. He closed the door to the spare room, and moved upstairs to his old computer. He looked over the screen, and began to type, clicking the mouse a few times.

After several minutes he unplugged the MP3 player attached to the computer, and attached it to the inside of his coat. He then went and sat down, as he lit up a small cigar, and adjusted the straps on his arm. He smirked as he waited, and sent a message to her through their new telepathic link. "have fun."

Ryuska kicked the starter on his bike and started off towards the mansion. He had the location memorized now, It was only a matter of time before he got there.

As time progressed, he came to see the mansion high up on a mountain, covered by forest. It had a long and winding pathway leading up to it. He kept glancing to each side as he rode up the long pathway, expecting an ambush at any moment.

He cut the motor and stepped inside slowly. "Hello?" He called out, hearing his own voice ring out through the hallways. The place looked like it hadn't been lived in since the sixteen-hundreds. He then heard a rumbling from the basement, almost directly beneath him. He began to search the house for a way down.

He began to descend the creaky old stairs that were hidden away behind a large suit of armor. There was a large, gothic styled metal door in front of him, and he was able to notice a glowing red light from beneath it. He pushed the door open and stepped inside, before his jaw dropped in horror.

It was a portal to the underworld, taking time to open. He then peered down at his watch. "I'm early..." He said before his eyes widened. "s**t!!" He ran from the house and leaped onto his motorcycle, starting it with a fierce kick and he sped away. He was no more then 10 feet away before the entire house exploded in a crimson flame, pieces of debris landing all about him.

Using a bit of his acrobatic skill he was able to dodge it all, riding along some still falling pieces of wall, jumping over pieces smashed into the ground. As all the debris came to a rest, he skidded his bike to a stop and whipped himself around to peer back just in time to see a large demonic dragon appear in a ball, and unwrap itself, before roaring and taking off into the sky.

"This is NOT going to get fun..." He said with a sarcastic smirk on his face. He then saw a horde of smaller dragon-typed demons fly after the larger one that had already left. "Now's as good a time as any to warn her... or even to get her help."

"Hey, Dez, We got trouble... I checked out the mansion, and it was an ambush, if we had arrived there right when we were supposed to, then we would have been over-run and then killed by many dragon type demons... There was a larger one, and many smaller ones right after." he thought out to her, recalling the memory exactly and trying to add his mental image to the transmission as well.

"Then how should i have trusted you?" He replied before spinning his bike back to its path and headed back to his apartment to pack.

Ivan standing far out in the distance watching the manor from afar he laughed slightly, "It's beginning....just as he said it would. The beginning of the end....and it'll all start with the seven sins, right my master?"
Looking at Destiny approach the manor closely, he licked his lips slowly and vanished, quickly reappearing before the manor, looking at Destiny, "Quite far for a young and beautiful woman to travel all alone, mind if I accompany you to this fine but unwelcoming manor?" asked Ivan as he smiled slightly in front of her.

((I've got something big and interesting to brighten this role play, so enjoy what i've got planned, i'll be using my character for this...can't remember hs name though, but i'll just go with Ivan for now.....in the meantime everyone enjoy and have fun. ))

((it's done, Ghoden))

Destiny could hear the newcomer's words with her acute vampiric hearing just before he appeard in front of her. She had known he was there even before he had shown himself. She sent Ry a mental message:

Who me?? No way but we've got an outsider here and I heard him talking to his master about a plan going just the way it should, the begining of the end, and that it will start with the seven sins. Pull all your books on the seven deadly sins so we'll know exactly what we're dealing with, ok? I'm going to finish up here and I'll join you as soon as possible.

She looked at the man standing before her, "That won't be necessary. I asure you I can take care of myself." She flashed her ice blue eyes at him in warning as she walked around him and headed into the ruins.
As she stepped inside and looked down, she observed the pit in the basement floor.
That must be where they entered this dimension, she thought to herself.
Stepping back outside, she saw that the strange man was still there watching her every move. She looked into the sky again and saw that one of the small dragons was still flying there. She took out her Demonbow and shot an arrow straight into the sky, clipping the wing of the creature. It let out a horrid cry and started to fall out of the sky but quickly recovered. She shot another arrow, this time striking the demon in the side. As it was falling to the ground; Destiny ran toward it and in one swift motion she jumped into the air, grabbed it, and then traced away to meet Ryuska at his house.

Ryuska saw her enter with the demon after he had cleared a table and placed the research books on it. "You managed to catch one?" He asked slightly surprised. He walked over to her, taking the demon from her hand gently and bringing it to the table. He then pins it there with two small knives through each wing. "Hmm..." He kept saying as he flicked through the books anyway. He also began to nod a bit like he was intrigued and he found something.

He nodded and hmm'd a bit more before he looked up at her. "It's as I feared..." he said, trailing off like he was about to say something dramatic. "I have no information on these creatures..."
