Welcome to Gaia! ::

Rayna: -is staring somewhat blankly momentarily distracted-

Arawyn: Uh, hello? Meeting? Welcome back to the present...

Rayna: Hmm? Oh, sorry. Had a really weird daydream. I think it was from the puppy references.

CW: Puppy? Like, um what exactly?

Rayna: Not entirely sure. -frowns- But something tells me to stay away from hottubs.... (xD Had to say it guys....well for those of you who know where it came from xP)

[BACK IN THE CASTLE]

Danneh: I suppose it's time to check on my progress now. -starts walking down the halls- Let's start with torture sections..... -opens the door to see Lust laying next to the wall and 80s with a bucket on his head and sighs-

80s: Ugh.....

Lust: Such a turn on.

Danneh: -closes the door- This does not bode well. -continues on down a bit then turns a corner and sees SD sprawled out on the floor and shakes his head-

SD: Ugh....I just... -sees Danneh looks back to see the now empty room and panics- I swear! I don't know what happened! I just-

Danneh: -shakes head again- No, it's not your fault. I should have expected this. -finally heads back up to the main room-

Lynn: -overhead from outside- NOW WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?!! THAT CAKE WAS A WORK OF PERFECTION!

Gwen: Hold still so I can get that spot!

Danneh: -has to step back before they both almost run him over racing down the halls- ..........

[ELSEWHERE]

-after Destiny has explained everything-

Danrei: That's really good, Destiny-san.

Destiny: Thank you. I made them for everyone when I was bored. But I can't take all the credit for Lynn's outfit. -points to the complicated stuff on the headband- I don't even know what half this stuff is supposed to do. I got them from some blueprints Lynn made up. But this visor works like a special PDA. She won't have to carry it around anymore and worry about losing it. It automatically saves all data she's collected to it. Really handy, I think. -sighs in content- I should have been a fashion designer. Well if I hadn't already been a rockstar and villianess.

Wolf: Then we would have had evil outfits from hell taking over people?

Danielle: -pokes the immodesty of the outfit- I don't think Lynn would wear anything this short or immodest.

Destiny: Ugh...well that's because she's a lot smaller than me and I didn't have time to whip a pattern from the new sizes. ......so uh, yeah.... -shakes head- Anyway -points to Emeri- You want to explain some things to me?

Danielle: Yeah, sure. That's Emeri.

Destiny: .....that's all I get?

Danielle: For now.

Emeri: -smiles happily- Hi! That outfit is so cool! I bet my puppy would be look good in it! -frowns- I miss him. I hope he comes back soon. -glances up- So you're Destiny, then?

Destiny: Yep. The original D.I.D.

Wolf: You seem proud of that title.

Destiny: -shrugs- I've accepted there's some things you can't change. Apparently including Damsel-in-Distress status....>.> D.I.D. sounds better.

Arcel: So, what are we doing now?

Danielle: Well we still need to find Degona. And save Lynn and Gwen from whatever they're under. -grabs Destiny's arm- So, let's go.

Destiny: Wha...but wait! I did this whole disguise thing so I could get away!

Danielle: Which is perfect. And now you're gonna go do it to get close to the enemy and find out how to save them. The disguise is exactly what we need.

Destiny: -pales- But that means......

Dan: I thought you've accepted you can't change things.

Destiny: NOT ALL THINGS!!!! crying

[BACK ON THE CRUISE SHIP]

Rayna: -sits through the otherwise boring meeting listening to Eli explain the current situation-

Eli: And then there was the whole thing about Cian and wanting to-

Rayna: -sits up in interest- Wait...what was that?

Eli: He was -notices the others drastically shaking their heads-

Rayna: He's involved?

Eli: I thought you knew everything?

Caryn: We, um, like to try and keep some things from her.

Eli: ......can I ask if there's there a reason why? -Rayna's eyes darken and the sky darkens as the sea starts churning dangerously and the other two girls look at each other in worry-....

Rayna: -growls eye twitching and waves start growing- DELANO!!!!! stressed

[ELSEWHERE]

Sapphire: -giving out orders to the minions as Delano sits in content on his throne watching in boredom- Is there anything else you want them to do?

Delano: No, no. That's good. Now why don't we -something like an earthquake suddenly shakes underneath him as raging lightning cackles across the sky causing him to freeze in place- What the -beep-!!

Sapphire: -frowns looking outside- Hmm, I don't think Mother Nature's in a good mood.

Delano: -suddenly pales-

-a major typhoon erupts off the coast of somewhere and wipes out a major population-

Oh, now I have something. xD Pay no attention to my last post, I command it!



Danielle: Destiny, calm down.

Destiny: No i will not! I want to go home! *makes a break for it, but at that second Degona comes running through the corridor, and they collide into eachother, falling to the floor*

All except Degona and Destiny: DEGONA! eek

Destiny and Degona: ...... ow....

Degona: *gets up, dusting herself off, then sees Destiny, thinking she's lynn, and is about to attack*

Danielle: WAIT! DEGONA! That's not Lynn! Its Destiny...

Degona: What? *looks down closer, sees its a wig, and costume* Oh.... *helps her up* What are you doing in that get up..

Destiny: In order: This is one of the outfits I designed for the group, I used this to escape my imprisonment, and now the others awnt me to go back from where I just escaped.. which Im NOT DOING!

Degona: Wait... all the group? Like me too? I want to see!

Destiny: {pulls out crumbpled paper* Here...

Degona: *looks at it* Sweet! I love the add-ons, and my-

Arcel: Degona? How did you escape from your captures....

Degona: I used a cliched movie reference, and kicked major but...

Wolf: Run into anybody else before us?

Degona: Um, well Devon...

[FLASHBACk]

Devon: *growls*

Degona: I really don't have time for this... you seen the girls? Anybody I actually care about?

Devon: No. They ditched me.. I've been wandering for hours...

Degona: *raises arms* Can you untie these for me?

Devon: Can't you just burn them off?

Degona: No. Im still powerless, remember?

Devon: o.o wait, you mean you can't fight back?

Degona: Hold up there big boy, don't you get any ideas.... what happened to 80's and Lust can happen to you too...

Devon: What happened to them?

Degona: Mess with me and find out...

Devon: stare Fine.... well... shall I just follow you then...

Degona: If you can keep up...

[End Flashback]

Bombay: So where did he end up...

Devon: *breathing heavily, barely walking, comes into view* I'm comming!

Degona: He is so out of shape...

Danielle: What did you exactly do to Lust and 80's...

Degona: Well... I owe 80's an apologie when we snap him out of whatever he's under..... I didn't mean to hurt him... and Lust probably can't reproduce anymore... twisted

Men: gonk

Degona: *fianlly noticing Emeri* O.o Um, since when did Danielle have a twin sister...

Emrei: I'm not a twin. I'm a doppelgänger! My name's Emeri! ^^

Degona: Right.... *looks around* Hey, where's Eli....

Destiny: Yeah, he usually would have said something sarcastic by now...

Danielle: I have no idea... he sort of.. poofed...

Degona/Destiny: Poofed?

Emeri: Poor Puppy...

[MEANWHILE]

Eli: [durring the meeting] stressed God why do you hate me...

Danielle: -sniffs haughtily- You're pathetic. Our friends are mind-controlled and here you are being selfish and only thinking of yourself. You'd never see me doing that.

Emeri: Well, how are we going to help, Danielley?

Danielle: Um.......

Arcel: -floats out of the disguise and the clothes crumple to the ground.....but his hair is still blonde somehow- Wow, that ACME stuff is potent. Anyway, if we're splitting up, I'm going with Danielle.

Emeri: Ooh, Danielley! Who's that?

Danielle: Huh? Oh, I never did introduce him, did I? That's Arcel, my boyfriend.

Emeri: -stares- He's your boyfriend?

Danielle: I thought you knew everything about me.

Destiny: And why is that again?

Degona: Yeah, when are we going to get an explanation?

Emeri: -waves hand dismissively- It was so much to learn and too confusing to remember. I just paid attention to the important non-boring things Mum told me about.

Danielle: ......How nice. sweatdrop

Emeri: -points over at Wolf- But I thought he was your boyfriend since he kissed you.

Danielle: -blushes in embarrassment along with Wolf-

Arcel: -frowns- No, I'm her boyfriend. I was even before all of this started.

Emeri: But your a ghost. -tries to poke him and her finger goes right through, Danielle's face flushing even darker in humilation this time- See?

Arcel: -spluttering- I wasn't always like this!

Emeri: Silly! Of course, you weren't always a ghost. Before you died...

Danielle: -face still red, Arcel trying to explain to Emeri that he isn't dead...............strictly speaking...in some roundabout way, until something snaps in her expression and her face gets steely, frowning and she strides forward past them and everyone else- Arcel, come with me. I need to talk to you. Alone!

Arcel: Um................o......kay? -he drifts past everyone and floats into the room Danielle gestures for him to go into and she follows, slamming the door shut-

Wolf: ....3, 2, 1. -almost everyone in the group runs forward, pressing their ears to the door to listen-

Arcel: So....why are we in here again? -looks around at the abandoned Hogwarts classroom, it's apparent that the class that had been here had been rushed out quickly, school supplies were still out and an ink pot had fallen and shattered on the floor where a frantic student had knocked it over in their hurry-

Danielle: -sighs- Arcel, I'm sorry. -Her expression didn't look very apologetic, though, he noted, just confident and proud like before-

Arcel: Sorry for what, Danielle?

Danielle: This isn't working out.

Arcel: What? -blinkblink- What isn't working out?

Danielle: -sighs in exasperation- Our relationship, Arcel. -Arcel's jaw hit the floor-

Arcel: What-but-I....what?!

Danielle: Arcel, you're a GHOST. -he flinched back at the vitriol of the word- And I'm the future Queen of the world. What sort of image will it give to everyone if I'm in a relationship with a ghost. -Arcel glances up numbly during her speech to watch the purple streak in her hair get fatter and a couple more streaks were appearing in her hair- And the ghost happens to be my second-in-command on top of that. No one is going to take me seriously like that. I need someone who's going to help me get to the top quickly, not have me get laughed at!

Arcel: -pleading- Nothing like that will happen! All we need to do is get Cian to-

Danielle; Excuses! Look, Arcel, it's just not going to work out being with you. When you've gotten your body back, talk to me about it again. -turns on her heel, striding out the door and bowling everyone standing against it over, all of them gaping at her in astonishment- What are you all doing standing around? That's not going to defeat Danneh and put me back in power! Come on, you two! You take me back to Danneh as though you've captured me. Now, hurry up! -turns and walks down the hall-

Destiny: -staring wide-eyed- Oh...crap.

(Half hour later...)

-Lynn and Gwen are sitting across from each other, both bound and gagged. 80s and SD are bruised, and one has a broken arm. They both have black eyes and bloodied noses-

Danneh: See...not...totally impossible. -is holding an ice pack to his own eye-

-Lynn is glaring at Gwen, and Gwen is glaring at Lynn's shoes-

80s: Maybe there's some other spell that would be...not so counter productive?

Danneh: -pulls out the wand- Good idea. First smart thing out of either of your mouths all day. -thinks- what should I do?

SD: Um...laundry washers?

Danneh: They'll both attack each other's shirts. That would only be good if one of them was Destiny. Any other ideas?

80s: How about servers? They'll do anything at your beck and call. That can't go too far awry if you're commanding them.

Danneh: Nice point. That's two for a zillion today. New record. -with a wave of a wand and a magic word, Lynn's eyes flash green and Gwen's flash grey-

SD: Did that happen last time?

Danneh: No...-gives the girls funny looks as their eyes glow their respective colors once more- Something seems to be overriding it.

-The colors fade, and the girls relax for a moment. Then Gwen falls asleep and Lynn's eyes become alert. She begins to say something, looking possesively at the wand-

Danneh: What on earth- -pulls off the gag- What are you saying?

Lynn: That wand...

Danneh: Yes, what about it, slave?

Lynn: It's...

80s: What?

Lynn: -blank look-

SD: What? What is it?

Lynn: eek MINE! THAT'S MY WAND! GIVE IT TO ME! Gwen! That's MY Gwen, you hear?! SHE'S MINE! And these ropes? MINE! Back away, you theives! THIS IS MY ROPE! And this is MY spot on the floor.

Danneh, SD, 80s: burning_eyes

Lynn: GIVE ME BACK MY WAND!!! scream

Gwen: -drowsy- Shaddup already! We get it...it's your wand. Be quiet. Some of us are trying to sleep. -falls back asleep-

Danneh: The Seven Deadly Sins. They're returning when provoked.

SD: It's a good thing they're tied up right now.

Lynn: My wand... crying

[Okay, I'm going to do something very different, bare with me ^^;]

MEANWHILE- Thousands of Miles Away [and also back in time, before we even were on Gaia]

[In the [insert name to be mentioned later] laboratories, right after Degona had beaten the doctor's to a pulp, destroyed their lab, and left with the ECC]

[The lab is in ruins, broken glass everywhere, lights flickering, a water main in the wall burst, and its slightly flooding. Both Dr. Grey and Dr. Smith are in pain, getting to their feet.]

Dr. Grey: Ow...... I think my organs are loose.... *hugs stomach*

Dr. Smith: *has a black eye* I think I might be blind in this eye... *cringes in pain*

[They hear a phone ring, and they gasp. They stand up straight, snap their necks to the wall, and see this red phone ring.]

Dr. Grey: You answer it!

Dr. Smith: No You!

Dr. Grey: You're closer!

Dr. Smith: Fine.. *runs up the phone, picks up the receiver, takes a deep breath, and answers the phone* Hello? *he pauses, and then pales* Miss Xeroxa... I... *pauses* Coming down? *sweats nervously* Uh, There's no need to check on progress. Everything is under control- Oh, you heard... I can assure you it wasn't our fault. She had some friends, they- *pauses again, getting paler* Yes Mam. Right away Mam. See you soon... *he hands up the phone, turns to Dr. Grey, and gulps*

Dr. Grey: *who is equally pale and nervous* Oh god... from one hell and into another. Do you have any idea how much trouble we're in?! We should have just killed Jamie when we had the chance...

Dr. Smith: But, we were under orders from Miss Xeroxa, if we disobeyed her orders-

Dr. Grey: We'd be in just as much trouble as we are now...

Dr. Smith: Good point. *tears*

[They start to clean up the lab a bit, and about 20 minutes later, the lab doors open, and a woman stands in the door frame. She is tall, and slim. She has chestnut brown hair, curly, shoulder length. Her eyes are dark green, and she is wearing glasses. She has a white blouse, and black skirt, with stockings, and black high heels. She is also wearing a lab coat, and rubber gloves on her hands. On her lab coat there is a name tag that reads: Miriam Xeroxa, CEO.]

Miriam Xeroxa: What has accrued?

Dr. Grey/Dr. Smith: Uh... [the look at each other, and then at the same time try to explain what has happened]

Miriam Xeroxa: stressed Please stop talking...

Dr. Grey/Dr. Smith: [they stop talking]

Miriam Xeroxa: [walks into the lab, through the wreckage, towards the only intact functioning computer] Tell me, what is the name of this facility?

Dr. Grey/Dr. Smith: Xeroxa Labs...

Miriam Xeroxa: Exactly. I own this lab, and 5 others just like it. And I can't have my lab's reputation be mocked by incompetent scientists! [turns to them, anger in her eyes] Give me one good reason why I shouldn't fire you both right now!

Dr. Grey/Dr. Smith: [pale, nervous sweating, can't speak]

Miriam Xeroxa: [scoffs at them, turns around, puts a small USB like thing into the computer, downloads some information, takes the USB thing out, and turns back to them] I am leaving for a well deserved vacation tomorrow, and leaving the board in charge of the lab until I get back, and I assure you, I have given them instructions to fire you if you so much as break a beaker!

Dr. Grey/Dr. Smith: [gulps]

Miriam Xavier: [heads back to the door] Clean up this mess! [she leaves]

Dr. Grey/Dr. Smith: [faints]

IN THE HALLWAY

Miriam Xeroxa: [with a quick pace, walking down the hall back to her office] Those idiots! How could they let our most prized creation slip through their fingers.. again! I don't know why I put up with them... I should have replaced them with robots a long time ago...

[She gets to an elevator, but instead of pressing the button marked "CEO" she presses a unmarked button, and types in a security clearance code. The Elevator dings, the doors close, and the elevator goes down]

Miriam Xeroxa: If they can't do it, then I'm going to have to take matters into my own hands.

[the elevator stops, and the doors open. Lights flicker along a dark long hallway, that must be several feet underground, way past the basement. She walks out the elevator, down the long corridor, and up to a high tech door. She places her palm on the hand print scanner, and places her eye is a retina scanner, and then there is a ding, and the door opens. She walks inside, tons of lights go on, and she is in a high tech lair. There are several monitors, high tech weapons and computers, and along the walls clippings on newspapers. All the headlines read similar titles: "Madame X strikes again". On the wall there is also a large display case. She smirks as she walks up to it. Inside the case there is a black sleek fighting spandex like suit, along with some weapons. She stares at the suit and smirks]

Miriam Xeroxa: ... and since I can't do that as Miriam Xeroxa...

[she opens the case, and changes into the suit. She places the USB thing into a tech pad on her arm, and places a eye piece and head set on her right side of her face. She smirks, now looking like a totally different person. She hits a button on the tech pad, the suit charges, and surges full of energy, she breaths in, her eyes now purple, and evil. Her hair shortens, spikes, and turns purple. Her long nails turn black. She twirls slightly, feeling the energy, then stops. She straightens up, and glares]

Madame X: I'll have to do it as Madame X! [she laughs evilly, then types something into the pad. It hums, giving her coordinates.] You can run "Degona", but you can't hide!

[If you think I've gone crazy, I haven't. I'm bringing in a new villain. And before you go "ITS AGAINST THE RULES!" on me, I have permission from Trish, as well as Danielle and Arcel, who are behind the two major villains Danneh and Cian. >} ]

Danneh: Alright, let's go over all this and find out where we went wrong. -pulls out a projector- From the beginning. I'll just take all this footage I was able to get.

SD: You have cameras here?

Danneh: Well a few hidden cameras on all your clothes. Couldn't trust you not to have them.

SD/Lust/Anger/80s: crying

Danneh: Now, let's go to it.

Lynn: -struggling against the ropes- That's mine! My projector! My camera! MINE! MINE! MINE! And that's mine! And so is that! And that! And that!

Danneh: -shakes head- And try to ignore that.

Gwen: Yes, please...... -snore-

Danneh: Alright, first we have what happened down the hall. -image of Destiny dressed as Lynn appears on the screen-

SD: ...well that's different.

Danneh: And most peculiar indeed. So why- -is suddenly interrupted as Lynn leaps at the scream- MINE! THAT'S MY OUTFIT! MINE!

80s: Dude, chill. It's just a pho-

Lynn: MY PHOTO!!! -snatches the picture away from them- MINE! Only mine! Mine you hear? MINE!

Danneh: -sighs shaking his head- ....this is going to be a long day...

[ELSEWHERE DOWN ANOTHER HALL]

Degona: -glances at Mistro- Are you singing?

Mistro: Well of course! It's a great opportunity to do so, wouldn't you say?

Degona: No, not it's not. It's never a great time for you to sing.

Mistro: But you all sing all that time.

Destiny: Exactly that's our thing. No one takes our thing. -holding stomach again-

Mistro: ....is humming your thing?

Destiny: Not usually.

Mistro: Well good then. -starts humming-

Danielle: -spins around to face them all- Are you lagging?

Destiny/Degona: N...no of course not!

Danielle: -stares at them suspisciously- Fine, then come on. We won't even make it at this rate.

Degona: -under breath- And that's a bad thing?

Destiny: -eyes glow briefly faintly before her dyed hair starts to turn partially blonde, with dark undertones of black and purple and almost canine eyes-

Degona: -not even aware of it- Okay we need another plan then. What if we-

Destiny: -eyes flash darkly before striking out and knocking her out completely-

Danielle: -turns around hearing Degona's body hit the ground- Now what are you two doing?

Mistro: -stops humming for a second- Oh, hey is that really-

Destiny: -eyes flash again-

{5 minutes later}

Danielle: -tied up with Mistro and hanging from a wall- Hey! You can't do this! How dare you attack me?!?! ME, of all people! No one attacks me! No one!

Mistro: crying Alright, I won't ever hum anymore. Never again! I swear!

Destiny: -already striding down the hall still in the same weird condition-

*Note: No, this isn't the sin taking effect on her. It's something else.

Mistro: Ow! gonk Alright fine, I was gonna be nice and help you but now you can just rot... *claps hands together, plces them against the wall, and spikes break his ropes* Alchemy for the win! *high-fives Wolf*

Danielle: TRAITOR! You will pay greatly for this when I get my hands on you!!!

Wolf: *takes out sword and leans it on his shoulder* You guys do what you need to do, we'll make sure she doesn't escape...

Degona: Pfft...you couldn't hold her back...

Wolf: Oh don't worry...me and Mistro have a serious side... *he and Mistro glare evily at Danielle* we'll make sure she stays put...

Danielle: eek

Others: *walks away slowly*
