Welcome to Gaia! ::

Harmonia

The thousands of wraiths was a terrifying sight! They were everywhere and they swarmed like bees in a hive. Before the Eternal knew what was going on she felt herself grow weary. Despite her attempts to kill a wraith ands gain some energy back, she stumbled to the side, and into empty air.

Her hand slipped from hopeit's as she attempted to catch herself but there was nothing to be caught on. Next thing she knew she was falling into a fog. A sense of floating and never ending drop were almost a godsend if it weren't for the fact she worried if she'd ever see light again.

Jeremy

Jeremy didn’t want to know. He wanted to get out of here; he was exhausted already, and for whatever reason, it was just getting worse even though his adrenaline was still pumping wildly. He noticed movement out of the corners of his eyes but was determined not to let anything distract him or slow him down.

It wasn’t exactly easy to ignore them when he didn’t know what they were and his mind was reeling.

Man, what he wouldn’t give to be home right now…

He kicked at one of the strange shadows that was darting in front of them and, to his surprise, it shattered.

…And he felt a little more alive again.

Breaking things was second nature to him; it was one of his favorite things to do—when the occasion was right.

Tonight, the occasion was right.

He made sure to keep a good grip on Anne-Marie and tug her along with him.

“I guarantee we don’t want to know what that was,” he replied, “But we’re not going to have to worry about that soon. Looks like there’s something up there. So I bet we’ll be out of here in no time.”

…He hoped.

“Don’t slow down, though. We’re making good time!”

Or, at least, they weren’t falling off the path, so that was good enough for him.

Mathias (-1)

The creatures were - familiar - he had hunted their like before. He growled low in his throat as they came. His fists flashed as they came, minding his balance on the upper level as he was. As they ripped through him they were met with fist and foot - their relentless assault met with one of his own.

But now he had a - WHO - or at least a good enough guess as to who. No, this was not a Negaverse operation - and while he had been willing to give the Dark Moon lee way before... he knew now that had been a MISTAKE.

If... no... WHEN he got out of here... He was going to suggest they answer in kind.

Busting Wraithes

Phrygia (0)

Once he'd gotten his feet back under him and pushed forward, he encountered something... ghostlike. Frankly he thought it was horrifying, but it was in his way, and even as the first few rushed through him, the others that approached soon meet the business end of his fist.

He dared not hazard his cane in such a tight quarters. His luck he'd break it against something or someone. But he did keep it in his hand, using it to try and drive away anything that got to close - stabbing anything that tried to break his defense.

Holding His Own

Eternal Chaldene

Feeling something brush against his legs was...well creepy given where they were and the surroundings they found themselves in. It also didn't help when he couldn't place what was down there brushing against him, and he did keep looking, it just seemed he was seconds too late to see what was touching him. He didn't like this - he really didn't like this.

He only just heard a scream, or a shout, from behind before he was looking down again and caught sight of it. "s**t...' He knew what that was - he knew what they were, as there were a lot of them suddenly. Wraiths....and it made sense, since it now clicked in his mind. He'd been pulled into a reflective surface, a mirror, they were in mirrorspace....but where were the dark mirror senshi? Shouldn't they be here?

Jerking his heard up as Antares shouted he nodded. "I noticed." And watching her start to fight him off he did the same, seconds behind her, but she was certainly ahead of him in the wraith kill count. He could feel his own energy dipping and than rising and dipping again. It wasn't where he wanted it to be - or where it should be. This wasn't something he wanted in case he needed to use his magic. "Damn it. There are too many and if we're inside a mirror....they are going to follow us the whole time." There would be no escape and no way to keep a hold on much energy

Lieutenant Strengite

Strengite’s grin got larger when she saw the red flush once again cross the boy’s face. God teasing him was just too fun. She was glad that she had chosen to follow him and his little friend. The girl was a lot more touchy and honestly Strengite didn’t think flirting would really do more than just piss the blonde off but there were still tactics in the nega’s pocket to torment them both. She was honestly contemplating just yanking the girl off balance enough to send her over the edge of their narrow path just to see what happened when it became apparent that the webby feeling she had been ignoring wasn’t something she was making up.

The senshi screamed something to Chaldene and started to throw punches into thin air except it wasn’t thin air. There was something there! The hell? This wasn’t anything Beni taught was it? She honestly didn’t recall right then, not that she had time to really think about it as more of the jellyfish like transparent critters came at her. With a yelp Strengite swatted at them with her flyswatter, trying not to topple over the edge as she forged forward. Most of her swings missed but some connected. There was no end to them!

((4-7: Swarmed by wraiths, your energy depletes rapidly. You are able to take out a decent number of the wraiths, restoring a decent amount of your energy to you. You manage to keep moving at a moderate pace.))




Antares

“Maybe we just need to get the ******** out of here,” Antares muttered as she did her best not to crowd Chaldene, focus on her feet and where she was going to put them, and get as far away from the crazy lady behind them as possible. If they didn’t have to worry about the rapidly crumbling path that was creeping up on them Antares would gladly face the negabitch and teach her a thing or two but right now Antares’ priority was protecting Chaldene and getting them both out of this predicament in one piece. She totally missed Chaldene’s red face, no way did she want a repeat of what just happened, but she didn’t miss the comment about him being stuck in a room with the nutball behind them.

“Wasn’t in a room, just got sucked in here when I went looking for you,” the younger girl muttered. It was getting harder to focus on what he was saying between the screeching and the wind and it was becoming more and more obvious to her that something else was hindering their path beside the wind. At first it was like cobwebs brushing against her, invisible cobwebs that brought shivers down her spine. Then the cobwebs turned to spears of icy wind that cut through her and that's when it hit her. They were in the mirror space. She had been sucked in via a reflective surface and when she focused on the void around them she could see them. Wrathes. Hundreds of them. Millions. Everywhere. Swarming like sharks in chummed waters. Every time one brushed against her or zipped through her Antares could feel her energy flag. Like a lightbulb in a older house, it dimmed slightly every time a new appliance was turned on. Soon she would be out of energy all together which would likely end up with her keeling over in a dead faint and on this path it meant death in the void that stretched out all around them.

“Chaldene! Wrathes!” It was the only shout of warning she could get out before the next ghostly leech came flying at her causing her to lash out at it, and the next one and the next and the next.

((8 or higher: The wraiths attack but you have the advantage; you manage to hit enough wraiths that the majority of your lost energy is restored. Despite them charging through you, you still progress at a fast pace!))

General Benitoite

Keeping to his cousins side wasn't that hard, though for his shorter legs it could be difficult in most cases, here the General was able to keep up though that was mostly due to the wind which seemed to slow his cousin just a bit. "I really dislike this place..." He didn't know why, aside from this realms apparent want to bring harm to them, but something was off and didn't feel right. Never one to back down from anything it was the moment he felt something brushing against his leg that he stopped where he was and drew his weapon. Something else, aside from the wind, was out here and had touched him - it would die.

A second touch and he spotted it and he froze. He knew what it was and he wondered, briefly, why he hadn't thought of this sooner. "Mirrorspace...we're in mirrorspace. These are wraiths..." Which meant they were feeding - collecting their energy. "Cuprite...kill as many as you can. They are collecting our energy." And he didn't need his cousin fainting, it would slow them down tremendously. He'd apologize to Remarque and Leto later for killing some of their wraiths, maybe dinner or some other such thing, they'd understand in all likelihood.

As energy left him, and he started to feel cool and then cold, he started to swing the spear around and watched in satisfaction as it sliced through many of the wraiths which had decided he was a good meal. With each wraith that he killed he felt some of his energy return, a good amount of it. He felt good, confident, with how much energy remained in his petite form. He could handle this.

As he moved, swinging his weapon, he failed to notice the dark mirror senshi and without notice his weapon swung right into the senshi who was sitting there being attacked by wraiths.

Faustite, Captain

Faustite couldn't tell when the whistling wind transitioned into screeching - when heavy gusts procured the drifting, ethereal forms. At first they looked no different than shadows casting about in a well-lit room, but as a few of them darted through him undeniably, he realized their forms: they were mirror wraiths.

He knew of them from the rooftop wraith itself. But these - Dark Mirror Senshi always claimed dominion over them. Directed them. Sealed them away. Were these wraiths stored here? Left to roam free? Were they in the depths of the Dark Mirror Court and its endless planes of mirrors?

Faustite found little time to entertain the thought; their ethereal figures buzzed and darted around him without pause, and wicked away his energy faster than he could try to defend himself. But even for all of his smoke and ability to teleport, he found none of it working. He could not pace himself further ahead despite its view from his perspective; he could not simply drown the wraiths in smoke. Instead, they orbited him through the heavy gusts as a slow, simple target.

How infuriating.

Ochre, Corrupted Eternal Senshi

"Great." At least we won't die alone? And nothing's trying to murder us yet.

... Oh. Too soon. Dark forms materialized from their surroundings. They wound about each other like fireflies, searching, seeking, until swooping down on all who dared cross the platforms. Ochre watched as a few ahead and a few behind became the targets of their collective assault. "So um... I might've been the one doing the jinxing just now." Surely enough, a flurry of the creatures sought them both.

At first, he felt nothing. Energy draining was more of a gradual realization, he confirmed with himself. Reaching out toward the etherial forms never once halted their escape. But even as they passed through him and unwound some of the energy from his form, Ochre caught many of the tangible forms in hand and crushed them. And while he found it irritating to yo-yo between exhausted and fine, he could live with it as long as he ensured that none of the wraiths escaped with their bounty.
