Welcome to Gaia! ::

the doors to the asuka labs slowly open from a light push from zero as "she" slowly walks througth the doors. the cold, lifeless, resource stations seems to great her as she walks towards the the side lab that changed zero's life for the worst.
zero lets out a heavy sigh as she slowly looks over the door to the lab that he rented months ago."so... Im back here...and nothing and changed...Im still female....nothing new about Seyla.....I wonder..." zero trails off and her hand slowly types in the key code to unlock the door. after a few beeps; the heavy deadbolt to the lab door slides to the side and the door opens.

zero slowly steps in to the darkroom, the pundget oder of blood still lingers in the air.

"Nothing has been touched in all these months...." she serveys the room. a boot there, cobwebs in the couner, and the transmutation circle in the middle, still a vibrent red as if energy has been flowing througth it all this time. zero brushes aside a new dark blue coat to reveal a simple seat of clothes and sets down a travel bag. she places her hand and the ground and feel the texture.

"i have to fix everything still...i have to make everything right again..." she says slowly standing up in the dark, quiet room.

zero claps her hand together and places them on the glyph and a reaction soon starts to happen.

the white light begins to form around him and the circle and engulfs the room. the light becomes to bright to stare any longer and zero closes her eyes. upon opening them agian, zero finds herself in a bright room with golden lines of energy around her, these lines engulf zero and she starts to glow a faint yellow as her body begins to change back to what it once was, parts of zero's body seem to melt away and a more masculine body is in it place. as the glow become fainter and fainter zero looks down and smirks "I'm back to normal....IT WORKED!!" he yells as he jumps in to the air " now...where the hell I am I...this place seems so familar to..." zero turn and bumps in to a pair of golden gates with alchemic runes eteched in to it as well as a large eye on it. his jaw moves down as he looks up "is....is that what i think ...no....its only supposed to be a legand..." his eyes grow wide as the gates slowly open to reveil darkness and thousands of eyes with a pereicing glare. they foucus on him and what seems like forever, zero stares blankly in to it. knowlage of the ages seem to flow in to his mind as he stares on as a disembodied voice speaks to hims.

"now boy...you have seen the truth, every fundamental laws of every scientific discipline and every form of anything known in the universe....now...time for your payment.... a black hand bursts out of the gate and grabs zero's left side. he looks down and sees his flesh slowly start to decay and be pulled in to the black limb

"what is this.....!!" he yells "equivalent exchange" the voice replies. his blood starts to flow from his side and he starts to become pale and blinks. his breathing becomes heavy. out of an instinct he claps his hands together and places them on the arm. a flash of seyla's image comes to mind. "i dont find dying a fair trade......seyla..." he wispers as a grand flame roars from his hands burning them and the arm, it pulls back and gate slams shut, the reaction ends after that and zero falls on to the floor of the dark room. he stares up in to ceiling of the lab and breathes.

"im back to normal" he says falling in and out of counseness.

Ginerva hoisted the boy up by one arm, trying her best to support him.
She was getting stronger, but still, she was frail....
At least she wouldn't have to walk all the way there....
Ginerva focused, relaxed, and closed her eyes. She let her body sink slowly through the floor....
Than, am oment later, she was at the hospital....

Shepard walked into to the lab. He was still a little scratched up from his fight with Mergex the other day but he was doing much better. Shepard was never one to miss something he had to do whether it snow, rained, was really hot, or he was sick. He would come do it anyways. Besides helping around the lab sounded easy enough. He used to do it with his father.



but this lab seemed diffrent. Unlike his father who made weapons and what not this lab seemed more focused on more organic things. He wasen't an expert on it but this sometimes involved alchemy and necromancey. " Hello? Is anyone here? Its me Shepard miranda reporting fpr job here" he said asking loudly.

Shepard stopped looking around and a girl enter. " I work here so I can help you." he said to her. He slowly walked to the center room and opened the door to the mineral room. He gazed around. " This really is not a normal lab..interesting...very." he said stepping out of the way so Akina could enter.


" By the way my name is Shepard." he said smiling a bit.

Tomoro hesitantly headed into Asura lab, her burns seething with pain as she put her eyepatch back on. By this time, she had changed back into her long sleeved lace dress; this way, nobody could see the burns along her right side. They were disgusting. Why had she come here in the first place? She HATED labs with a passion, they were the place where she had practically lost all feelings inside of her. "..I wonder... what... this place stores.." she said quietly to herself.

Pushing the door open, she looked around, a few strands of grey hair falling onto her face, and she shook them away slowly, as if time were slowed down. There appeared to be another boy in the lab as well... she couldn't really care. He was nothing to her. He also had wings, and she wondered if they were fake or if he had become some part of a twisted experiment, resulting in the ability to fly.

Of course, there wasn't any plus side to being an experiment. Tomoro knew from experience.

Quietly walking over to a bookcase, Tomoro glanced at all of the titles before picking up a book on plants, and sat down in a hard metal chair next to her, opening it up. Apparently, it was an alphebetical list of every plant in the world, from A-Z, and she smiled lightly to herself... maybe she could play a game of what plants she knew and which ones she didn't.

Tomoro's eyes raised up to meet him, her eyebrows extended. She didn't really need to speak... she could sense the man in front of her was teeming with emotions, mostly ones filled with anger and hate. Why, she didn't know... but it seemed that he.. wasn't used to being friendly. She hadn't really wanted to speak to him, personally... the lace on her dress was beginning to rub up against her burns, and it hurt like hell. Of course, she didn't make any notion of this in public. It was only in her dorm that she actually acknoweleged the pain.

"Fine... it's fine." I wonder if he made that thing. It's quite ugly... but kind of cute, in a way. Pushing her hair behind her ears, she moved her stare back down onto the book, flipping the ivory pages every three seconds. Her mouth could be seen forming a little 'o' every once in a while, as if she didn't know what plant existed. Her eyebrows then furrowed after that, and it took one second to realize that she was memorizing the plant name, and what it did, it's purposes, whether it was helpful or harmful... things like that.
