Welcome to Gaia! ::

Andrew woke up, quickly reaching to the gun hidden in his clothing by the bed as a natural reaction to waking with a startle. he looks around the room, then blinks and remembers where he is, "oh...im still here." he said, breathing rapidly, then returned the safety on the gun to 'on' and hid it back in the hidden pocket of his suit jacket.

for a second i thought i was home in the training wing of the building.....where i had to sleep for 3 weeks on end to prepare myself for living in a hostile environment, surrounded by those who wished me dead. I had to hide my shaman talents in the rooms with CCTV....it was difficult, several times i almost perfomed spirit unity to enhance the strike at my foes....only supreme force of will stopped me from killing all the guards there in one furioku-fueled battle-frenzy. he thought, then closed his eyes and willed sleep to return, even with the adrenaline running through his system and the thought running through his subconcious mind.

Andrew woke again, this time Azuris was awake and looking out of the window, "Something is wrong, the sky and the cold, they speak of danger beyond living reckoning" he said ominiously

"what is it? anything you have seen before Azuris?" Andrew asked, worried that the problem could be enough to stop Azuris acting in his usual childish manner.

"once, though i hope i am mistaken" Azuris answered.

At this Andrew was out of his bed like a shot, and quickly got a quick wash and then dressed in his usual suit, doing a quick check for his veritable arsenal of assassin weaponry hidden among the material of the suit jacket, "We should wake the others, if it is that bad we should be prepared for combat."

"I felt something, Azuris is the one who clarified upon the feeling" Andrew said, then walked over to Neko's room, knocking thrice upon the door with the butt of his .475 calibre pistol, "Neko, wake up, its important...seems trouble brewing, and im not talking about Parius."

"Is it alright if i send in Azuris to help? he has a very effective method of waking deep sleepers" Andrew asked with a smile, as he did so Azuris was standing behind him with a smile, holding one hand up with lightning arcing between his fingers,
"My method shocks people real good, they become real bright sparks when im done with my electric personality" Azuris said, then laughed at the amount of electric puns he had said in one sentence.

"No need to do that, unless Neko screams when she wakes there won't be a sound" Andrew said with a smile, then nodded to Azuris, "go for it, but keep the voltage down ok?"

"got it" Azuris said with a smile and a gleam in his yellow eyes, then walked through into the room, then over to Neko's side, "wake up sleepy" Azuris said while reaching over and shaking Neko slightly, an advantage of being an elemental rather than a ghost, he could easily make himself as solid as a normal person.... he hoped he wouldn't have to use his method.

quick question: where is everyone?Just so I know, and don't accidently talk to someone who isn't in the same area

Everything was red. So red. And warm. Why would it be warm in the winter? Fey looked around her. The village was on fire. Nobody was around. "Mommy?"She called"Daddy?" No answer."Where are you?" Fey walked through the snow and entered her house, not caring it was on fire. She wanted to find her family. She poked her head into the back room, wiping the sweat off her face. Tears were now falling."Mommy!"she sobbed "Daddy!Dane!" She walked back into the central room. Suddenly there was a groaning sound, and a burning beam fell from the ceiling. Fey screamed as it fell on her. She lay on her stomach, screaming as the fire burned her back and the beam crushed. She screamed, but no one was hearing her. No one.

Fey's eyes snapped open. She sat up and saw that she was lying in the park. The moon shone down on her. Her breathing calmed slightly. "Relax, Fey, it was just a dream. You don't have to go through that again"she told herselfExcept every nightshe thought sadly. She stood, disgusted at her inwardly negative personality. She walked slowly through the park, seeking to calm herself.
