Welcome to Gaia! ::

ooc::: 'Ey look, I finally got my lazy arse to make that post I've been needing to make. Anyway, thank you those who told me thier codenames. I'll add those to the list, ASAP. The final entries are due Friday! I only have one in, come on Guys. Pick up the game or else, the one guy who turned it in is gonna get that Vice Captain position. Also, School started Monday, and I move again Saturday, so no internet acess for atleast a week. But, I will be posting another of the tri post before then, and the voting for the vice commands will commence Saturday morning. (If you all turn in yer second app)


"Let me drive!" Stalker whined, her bottom lip was puckering out in a pout.

"No Stalker! The last time you drove, I had to hijack another one of these. And Commander had to hotwire it all over again." Rubiks had her hands firmly gripping the wheel of the second stray Pirate ship the trio had to commandeer. The first one was still a massive heap of steel, wood, and flames, thanks to Xinrie's expert steering job. Never, ever, give a Teenager with undiagnosed ADD the keys to an armed air ship. It just went bad. She sighed, ignoring Stalker's pleas for the time being to glance back at Ryanna.

The Commander was staring into the dark sky space with tightly locked eyes. She was manning the gigantic sub-machine gun mounted on the front of the ship.

"Commander, We're coming up on the Main Ship now. Should I set it into hover mode?" Rubik's index finger hovered hesiatantly over the auto-pilot button.

"Understood Rubiks, Engage Hover mode. Stalker, stop your blubbering and retrieve the P.O.W.'s uniforms." Ryanna had turned on Leader mode just like that. She quickly stood, and began to unscrew the gun from it's mount. It would make for an excellent entry weapon.

"Fine! And they ain't war prisoners, they're jus' Prisoners." Xinrie shuffled back to the heavy steel door, mumbling the entire time about how they weren't at war. She wrneched it open, slipped through it, and slammed the door shut. Several muffled screams and sobs on top of a cackle of sadistic glee coul be heard on the other side of the door.

Rubiks rolled her eyes, bunch of pansy pirates. But hten again, her younger sister and Ryanna could be the scariest people out ther ehwen they wanted to be. "Uhm, Commander, Might I ask what it is that you plan to do with that can of RedBull, and theQW789 Sub-Machine gun?"

Ryanna dumped the two before mentioned objects on the ground. "These...are for Stalker. We have to make an entrance somehow. And a hyped of Stalker is the best bet."

The seventeen year old's eyes widneed slightly. A sleepy Xinrie with a gun was scary enough, but one jazzed up with caffine was absoloutly terrifying. "Right...So long as I go in last, I'm god with the plan."

It was then that Xinrie came stomping back into the room, her face cracked into a goofy-looking lopsided smile. She was already outfitted in loosely baggy tan capri's, a red bandana, and over-sized white shirt. Obviously, she had jacked the clothes from the Captives. "Here's yours Commander, aaand Your Rubiks! They're all a little, er, large, but they should fit."

Rubiks held the cloth that Stalker had shoved into her hands out for examination. "Stalker....why do I have to wear the polka-dotted skirt from Hell?"

"Cause I sure as heck wouldn't wear it, and can you imagine the commander wearing that thing?" She snorted.

Ryanna sighed, she was already dressed in her new attire and carefully folding her original clothes into neat little squares. "Everyone, please be quiet. I do believe we are coming to the entry port. Quickly now, Captain Stalker, Drink this, and take the gun. Alright, act, natural..." Her words faded away as the tiny ship slowly edged it's way closer to the massive port side of the 'S.S. Scwabler.'

Riku drew the sabers at his side, and wished he had the Hellion Angels with him. These sabers, short single-edged swords with curved blades, felt awkward and unbalanced in his hands. His katars were balanced just for him.

I guess it's these or nothing, he thought to himself, when suddenly there was a brilliant flash of light. Riku, who still had the shades on, still felt it's brilliance, even as he held a hand over his eyes and shut them. When the light subsided, he opened them, and they quickly adjusted to the sudden darkness. The others, including Gregory, had not been so lucky; they were still blinded from the flash.

A shadow jumped up at one of the guard's feet and sucked him into the darkness. It seemed to creep along with an unnatural movement, almost as if it was a living shadow. It killed all of the guards, then turned towards Gregory. Despite still being blinded, he knew the shadow was there, and jumped back as it came at him. Riku channeled his energy into the swords, and they burst into a brilliant light. However, something happened, and the light seemed to grow brighter and brighter. Whatever it was, Riku wasn't controlling them. He threw them down as they seemed to get hot in his hands.

Two figures dropped from the ceiling. They weren't very old; they couldn't have been older than 15. Riku recognized them from the photo; Zen Po and Zen Li, known otherwise as Yin and Yang. They were twins from China, and they controlled light and darkness; hence their codenames.

Po, or "Yin", was a girl. She wore a black Chinese dress, and her hair was tied back in a ponytail. She seemed to give off a dark aura; indeed, she was the one controlling the shadows.

Li, or "Yang", was a boy. He wore a white male outfit, and seemed to glow with light energy.

The two giggled, and Li spoke up. "Silly man. You cannot keep the crystal from us."

"Yes, you will not keep the crystal from us," Po said, and giggled. "Master Kavinsky needs it for his plans. And he wants you dead!"

She sent a surge of darkness towards Riku, but he was prepared. He jumped upwards, and sent a small ball of light into the wave of shadow below. It scattered, but the light came flying back towards Riku, now under Li's control. He summoned a small shield of Chaos, which only barely blocked the attack.

Damn, the crystal's still draining my Chaos power, he thought to himself. This isn't good.

"Riku!" He looked down to see Gregory charging Li, despite the intense light he was giving off. "They cannae' fight withoot each other! If we separate them, we may have ae chance to beet them back tae their master!"

"Right," Riku said, and flung himself towards Po.
