((I hate colds. .__.
Thank you, Exel. ^^
Wow, most of our characters are Suits. This is AWESOME!))
Jack sighed deeply, closing his eyes and shaking his head lightly. "Amy Nigel . . . I am aware of that now," he groaned, "That wench with her double personality disorder . . . I knew she was no longer on my side when she didn't return to the castle. She has sided with the Ace of Hearts."
The Jack of Diamonds sighed once again, his chest feeling rather heavy. He tightened his lips, angered that he had to live as such.
"Is there anything else you wish to inform me of?"
"I-I see," Victor said, his voice heavy. He narrowed his eyes at the son of Wonderland's infamous Hatter, his heart feeling suddenly heavy. The Suits were truly awful people. Victor had killed a few people as a Suit and had even been a part of torturing people. With his love for blood, he took a considerable amount of joy in it. Still, after having seen innocent blood shed, Victor couldn't help but pity all in his resistance. He suddenly became aware of the blood-soaked handkerchief in one of his pockets, remembering how the red of the handkerchief had turned brown. He had wanted to refresh the look on his cloth, with the blood of the Jack of Diamonds of course.
"I am terribly sorry, Hatter," Victor said, placing a hand on his shoulder. "Are you sure you are ready to fight tonight?"
The Ace of Hearts remembered the presence of another man at his side, another resistor. "Ah, and Hatter, I have brought a new resistor with me. His name is . . . Ven," Victor caught himself before he accidentally called Ven by his real name, "And he is standing on my right . . . your left."
Gestalt shook his head, turning away from the angered girl. "I believe I have already explained my reason for bringing you here, young miss," he muttered, "Well, if you have forgotten, I suppose that is just your loss."
He took a step forward, keeping his hands behind his back. "If you act up, I will not hesitate to sedate you again."

Nobody had noticed the presence of this new member but trusted caterpillar's judgment would have improved since his last choice with Amy, he was a bit shocked to learn that the Matt was still alive but he could not allow that the momentary happiness was to distract them from the task at hand, if they where not to attack tonight, under the cover of the moonless night, who knew when they would "I'm glad you are Alive Mathius, but surely you know this is not a time for social gathering" he said looking at caterpillar to see if he would also get the hint.
"Now, about tonight, there is 2 entrances that we know about, plus the underground passages that Amy informed us, so I propose we team up in groups of 2 and take the 'explosives' to this routes" he said holding up a small cylinder that contained the 'aluminum soap' mixed with gasoline to make a thick, brown substance " let me remind you even if this 'explosive' I'm giving you is less flammable it also burns slower and at higher temperature and sticks to the target, not to mention the people in there can be killed by heat stroke, dehydration, suffocation, smoke exposition, or carbon monoxide poisoning, it's not going to be pretty and many might try to scape, so we need to be careful, for our sake and the sake of the civilian population" he explained while getting to his feet and taking out a small 'dagger' encrusted by rubies and sapphires.
Nobody looked at the dagger for a moment before looking at the small group again "If there is any encounters with the suits, since we don't expect for all of them to be at the main quarters" as nobody spoke the dagger grew until it became a long sword "We need to be prepared to kill on sight..." He made a small pause, gathering his courage "Unless we wish to be killed"
Marcie sat in front of maria and looked up at the worry on her face, it was quiet evident she loved the white queen, and she would have given everything to make them happy but she could not deny that he was in danger, anyone that formed a part of the resistance was "Perhaps something will happen, but for now all we can do is wait" she said taking a sip of her tea "I could always go and check if you want me to though" she added looking at the Queen from over her teacup, she knew where the meeting was, even if it was over it wouldn't be so hard to track them down.

Maria sipped her tea, a look of discontent and further worry holding itself upon her dainty features. "I would rather wait until morning to check. I do not wish to be at all a hindrance, however, I do not wish to be too late either." Maria felt somehow selfish, expecting full-heartedly that Nobody would return for her simply because she asked of it and lamented the danger he was in. "Plus, no matter what, I do not wish to send you into danger upon my account."

((Tammy's turn for epic post!))
Matt nodded at Ven, and said, "We've met before." He then looked at the small King. He bowed, "yes, my liege. I understand." He then went back up and produced a small handgun from his hat.
Henry looked at it, "I didn't see THAT in there?!" he said, amazed.
Matt turned his head to where Henry was standing. "Yes. I know. There are many things that are mysterious about me that you have yet to know, my good friend." He then explained to the others, "Though I am blind, I have very acute hearing and I can hear the vibrations coming from your heartbeats." He pointed the gun straight at a tree, "I know that now, i am pointing it away from all of you." He took off his hat, and produced a box of bullets. He started to load his gun, "By the way, Ven, did you see Ashle on your way here? Marcie and I were looking for her, but she was not at the shop...Maybe you saw her in the woods?"
Ashle hung her head, defeated. "Do what you want..." she whispered. She sighed, "There isn't anything left for me anymore." Her voice was soft, a whisper.
Henry bit his lip. He could remember now his son's own enthusiasm of the resistance.
"Dad, just let me go!" said a boy, about Matt's age. He looked the spitting image of Henry, blue eyes, dark, shoulder length hair, tan skin. He stood about six foot, and could see his father eye to eye. He wore the garments that were similar to Matt's.
"No! I told you that it's to dangerous! What if you were killed?!" said a furious Henry. He was younger then, happier. His eyes were lighter and his back was straighter. He looked to his wife, Coraline. "Cora! Help me out here!" he said to her.
Cora was crying. She was connected to Henry's hip. "Please, Jake, don't go...I wouldn't be able to have both my men gone..." she said, her voice light as bells.

Jack stopped outside of the castle when he heard his 'babysitter' nick name for him,which made him more angry,"Shut the ******** up you stupid whore!!!" he yelled in anger,throwing a rock at a window causing it to break,"Go to hell you b***h!" he added as he took off running away.
Alex returned to Tao but stayed silent,looking down.

Tao put his hand on her cheek, "What's wrong, ma cher. I would have thought that you wanted to see your friend. I mean, you two are like sisters....I thought that you would want to comfort her...." He then wrapped his arms around her in a loving embrace. "I'm sorry that I made you mad.."

"You immature b*****d! I thought you would like to know the important bit of news I've just discovered!" Ten yelled, now chasing after Jack as quickly as she could.

(Sorry I haven't been posting much...my best friend was over today...and my little cousin's over too...she's sleeping in for tonight smile )
The Joker put a thin finger upon his lip and started to look upon the future.
"Better be ready than never, Jack...that is all I am going to say." Joker chuckled, leaving the Jack of Diamonds a small code of a warning.
Amy nodded at Nobody's plan. "Also, we have the Joker to worry about...he might think that the resistance is on the move since...he saw me earlier..."

When the Matt asked him if he seen Ashle in the woods. He honestly couldn't remember from the last time in the woods alone was with that crazy hideous creature Lewis was doing to him. "No sorry Hatter I haven't." After that he hopes that she was ok.

((which I find slightly funny, Zack, cause I distinctly remember Ashle trying to help him out in that situation...))
Matt sighed in dissapointment. "Thank you...That's one less place that we have to look..." he said.

((First of all, I was supposed to post a long time ago, I know. However, I made a pretty big post and Gaia was a b***h and didn't let me post it. So, I got mad and didn't want to type it all out again.
Secondly, does everyone like how some idiot dressed Zack's avatar today? cool
Thirdly, Tammy, Zack's post is legit because when Lewis was with Ven in the forest, Zack's post says that he was so lost in what was going on, he barely noticed Ashle.))
Jack rolled his eyes at the Joker's comment. He knew very well to be ready for the next movement of the resistance. They may have been dropping dead slowly, thanks to the Suits, but even the Suits were dwindling down slowly. The thought was Vexing, but if the resistance was to strike again, Jack hoped that the Suits would prevail, even somewhat.
"Yes," he muttered, looking down at his paled hands, "Yes, I know, Joker."
Such an intricate plan. The boy knows the castle better than I do. Then again, I'm usually just in the Suit facilities.
Victor trusted Nobody's plan. He had faith in the White King, trusting his intelligence and strategies all the time. It was as if the White King had become his adviser. Then, a sudden vexing thought came to mind, one that Victor had to think through many times.
He sighed deeply, grabbing the White King by the shoulder. "Your Majesty," he whispered, "I trust you fully. I see your plan as nothing under perfect. I see you as the person I need. If I am to die tonight, and the chance is high, you are to be the next leader of the resistance. However, I understand that you are King and may see handling the resistance and the land as a hassle. If this is the case, then you may give the title to someone you see to be more fitting."
"Very well then," Gestalt said, rather quietly. He began to walk, keeping his gaze forward.
"I will see what I am to do with you next," he said as he slowly walked, "Behave yourself or I will have to deal with you myself."
With that, Gestalt left the laboratory and headed for his master's office.

(( well, before i post as nobody, is there any request for the teams or should i keep taking care of the technical details?)) Marcie took another sip of her tea, focusing on the warm and fragrant liquid trying to distract herself from the memories of the day she had almost failed to her duty and died without even accomplishing her mission "It wouldn't be on your account really" Marcie said with a small smirk "It is my job to protect the White queen" She added taking another sip of her tea before looking down at the cup instead of at Maria, watching the ripples and swirls that had been formed on the liquid as if hypnotized by the surface somehow, the amber contents already allowed the bottom of the cup to be seen, even if the cup was half empty her mind was more than full and she could keep the memories at bay no longer... the kidnapping, the indifference of the former white queen, the ambiguity of the former white king and the pain of her prince,it had all turned her blood cold, almost as cold as the moments before the battle.
It had been on a cold morning that she found them, it was the beginning of spring, the time where the cold is supposed to die and leave space for the warmness, but as often as it happens with a day, the coldest hours are just before sunrise, and what is spring but the hours before Summer? the petite figure of a knight in light armor crossed the almost deserted space between the empty field and the suspiciously quiet shelter, was her target really inside? she tried to be as silent as possible as she approached the shelter, one mistake and both her life and the life of the person she was commissioned to rescue would be taken away, the wind blew her long brown hair together with her ears and her penetrating scent away from the scene, she had been careful to come from the side that was opposite to the wind, she didn't knew if the people inside where normal or if they had more acute senses just like her, she took small steps, making sure that her armor didn't make a sound and when she reached the front door she listened carefully, at least 5 people where inside if she was not mistaken.
It had to be 5, there was no room for mistakes, a mistake would be fatal, this could easily be turned in to a suicide mission if she was not careful enough, the inside of the construction was too quiet, or was it because even the white knight had not slept since she was regarded with the news of her prince being kidnapped? the lack of sleep had taken it's toll surely and the silence was unnerving, something was not right, she listened more carefully, trying to calm the pounding of her heart against her ribs, murmurs... steps... one, two, three, something metallic clinking... a sharp cry of pain cutting the air...
It took her less than a second to react to the cry she could recognize as that of her young prince, yet her mind was working at an incredibly slow rate and so by the time she registered what she had done the door had been blowed up by a plastic explosive she didn't remember placing, it took her longer to react to this than she would have expected, she looked at the flames almost absentmindedly and the smoke had almost gone away by the time her anger had built up enough to make a blind attack, the fast movement of her sword and the surprise of the attack had allowed her to take down two of the men inside with one blow each, she had gone directly for the throat, a quick kill with no chances if saving them but as she was about to deliver the next blow one of the men caught her by the hair, she lost balance and was forced to her knees, they where much stronger than her and surely they would have no microcode for her, not after the way she had just barged in after all.
"What do we have here?" the deep voice of a dark haired man came from behind her, he pulled at her hair earning a small groan from the white knight, it was rather an inconvenient situation, the suit pulled her closer "Look at the pretty mess you made" he hissed dangerously in her ear yanking her head in the direction where she had stood not long ago and making her look at the two dead bodies, she didn't care but she frowned at her own incompetence, why had she rushed inside knowing she could only take two at a time? there was no time for questions however, before she knew it her head was on the ground, a hot liquid dripping from her skull as the man lifted her again from the hair, She could hear a dark chuckle of the remaining captors, she had been mistaken, there was 6 people inside, 5 suits and her Prince, only 3 suits now but even if she managed to get herself free from this guy she could only take down two more, not to mention her sword was out of reach and this guys had guns on them, the hit she had just received didn't help at all either.
She felt so heavy, lightheaded somehow, she had failed in the most miserable of ways yet there was no pain, all she could feel where the begging eyes of her prince on her... she had not been able to help him and now she was going to die with him "We should have some fun before killing her" she could hear another of them say over the cries if her prince and the crisping sound of the burning wood, the small explosive had set fire to a part of the door, the smell of smoke covering the place but she could not hear or smell any of this, it was as if the world had slowed down to a tenth of it's usual speed and her senses had stopped working, all but her hearing "We need to kill the little guy first" the one closer to her prince said, taking out a sharp, glistering knife, Marcie could see the clean and small weapon and the words came to her brain as in a dream "We should make him bleed to death and make her watch" the one holding her added, amusement and malevolence in his every word... it was just unbearable... she closed her eyes, tear flowing, her spinning despite the hold of the man on her hair and suddenly it was all quiet.
The sound of a knife severing the skin and then one more body to the ground before a second sound of skin and bone being torn apart was heard, Marcie had cut her own hair to free herself from her captor and making good use of the disorientation this caused her captor she had killed him like the other two and ran to the man that seeing his desperate situation had decided to rush the death of his target, but the white knight had been faster, deep and scandalous was the cut on her back, it had hit the ribs... but she was still alive and moving and so was the small body she was hugging tightly, the small body beneath her, crying and incapable of knowing what was going on, the man to her right had given a step back, startled by this mad woman's actions, how could she still move like that? when Marcie turned to him with a death glare on her eyes the suit froze, he even forgot about his gun and it didn't took her long to kill him in the exact same fashion she had annihilated the other 3, her strength fading a second after but luckily for her the last suit had run away, he probably hadn't realized she was lost and that in itself was a miracle, now she just needed a new miracle to take her prince out of here before she passed away but she couldn't move, she was tainting his hair with her blood and her stomach being tainted by the blood of the small prince she was hugging tightly, but she was too weak to move.
Before the adrenaline had supplied for the blood loose but as the white knight had made the final cut to the throat of the person that had tried to kill her prince and had stabbed her instead almost all the energy had left her body, as his corpse hitted the ground and the shelter was enveloped by the fire she could barely cut the ties that held her prince, she was unable to control her movements anymore, her hands shaking as she cut the rope and tried to help the boy out of the shelter, the fire was languidly licking the wood as they exited the place, the black smoke and overwhelming heat making her even dizzier... but someone would see it... someone would come and help them, hopefully a friend, Marcie walked out of the shelter with her prince close by, they where no more than walking corpses and they collapsed a couple steps away from the shelter. hopefully someone would come, hopefully it would be a friend...
Marcie looked up from her tea, her eyes lost, she was glad that they had been found by a friend in the end but that time was a constant reminder of how lacking her skills where still "Even if I'm not always that good at my job" she said with a bit of heaviness "But maybe you should get some sleep" she added with a small smile as she settled the teacup on the center table, suddenly she didn't feel like tea anymore.

((Serene, what bet did you make Zack loose?))
Matt sighed, and nodded. "And I, your majesty. If I am to die tonight, I am gratefull it is to you." He then looked at Victor. "Do you happen to have a knife?" His voice was sincere and low.
Ashle looked back up at Gestalt. "Go rot in Hell," she mouthed. She didn't make the noise, fearing what would happen. She tried to move out of her bonds once Gestalt was out of the room.

((I share your pain serene, it hapened to me a couple times with long post on gaia and so i decided any long post i was going to make would be tiped in a notepad and just fixed in gaia (fixed as in spelling and grammar) and i just Love the pretty look on Zack's avatar ROFLMAO
last but not least, even if Ven doesn't recall seeing ashle that just makes the perfect death for her, what can be more dramatic/traumatic for matt than finding her death lover's body after the resistance just set fire to the castle?))
