Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lillith died immediately after that blow to the neck, falling to the ground with a wicked grin still plastered all over her cold, dead face.

Isabella smiled happily as she watched the Queen die, herself padding softly at the casket, wanting to get out now. "Um...excuse me? Can I...you know, get out now?" She asked as she stared up to everyone, hoping that at least one person would help her out.

Cyrillia took his hand happily, helping herself up all the way until she reached up and kissed him quickly on the lips before pulling back, giggling playfully up at him. "Yeah, let's go my prince!" She exclaimed as she led him over to the rest of the group.

Jaclyne only chuckled lightly at the cat, relieved that her intuition and guess was correct. She then blinked rapidly at his statement before gasping softly. "So it is true...oh my..." She whispered as she stared down to her stomach, ginglerly placing a hand upon it.

Everyone! Ninja Zackeus has Influenza A. He will not be online and posting for a few days. Please be understanding when I called him last night his tempuature was 104.9.

((I'm coughing a bit, but I'm down to 101.1. So, I'll post as much as i can,))

Zack nodded at the dead and creepy queen of spades as he manuvered the ground under the casket to lift it and her up, almost like an elevator. Then he let a panel open from the raised hole. "There you go," he said, as pleasant as he'd be for a little while, still holding to the grudge even though she was dead. He hadn't protected Jaclyne, he had the right to not forgive himself. He had vengence in his eyes as he looked at the two doors in the room. One to front left, one to front right. "Tiger or the maiden, what a choice. Behind one door is our death, behind the other is something good," he turned to Shadow, glad to have him back. "What are your orders?" he asked coldly and bluntly, his rapier grasped so hardly in his hand that his knuckles were white.

Dominic smiled as his lady stepped from the earthly elevator. He opened his arms to her as he listened not to Zack. He was just glad to see her.

James ran to the group with Cyrillia, seeing the dead queen, he hugged to her. He was so happy. Now only one big evil was left, The Dark One.

Shadow looked at Zack, staring hard back. "You, Dominic, Isabella, James, and Cyrillia will go right. The Alice's and I will go left," he said, not wanting to split up the couples. Also wanting to guard the Alice's himself. "And Zack, kill anything in your way. I want you to protect only the things that James designates as good. He is your morals, you are the power. You two must guide and work together," he demanded. He had a feeling that something good and bad was behind each door, not all being, as the queen said, 'What it seems'. He offered his hand to Alice, ready to lead them down the left corridor.

James nodded at the plan and pulled Cyrillia along with him as he ran to the door, excited.

Zack nodded and turned to the door. walking straight there. He wanted to kill James because of his blind happiness. Did he not see that there was an evil behind this door? Did he not respect the darkness' power? Oh well, he would soon.

[no, that's like...108 me thinks? and im sorry your not feeling good. If it's any constellation prize, i had a panic attack today and i had to stay at the hospital all day, for like 9 hours! it sucked soo bad!]

Isabella curtsied to Zack gently before seeing the hurt and despair in his eyes, with a sort of darkened rage that she had never seen nor witnessed from a man in all her years. She then bit her bottom lip, wanting to say something, her being the considerate and innocent one of her sisters. Jaclyne being both brilliant and fierce, and Cyrillia being both fun-loving and outgoing. She then stopped at the last second before looking around, finally spotting Dominic, a smile dancing on her lips as she ran to him and hugged him tightly, clearly overjoyed to be in his presence right then and there. She then turned and looked back to the rest of the group, listening to the new plan since Lillith had given up her life in a sacrifice, but for whom?

Cyrillia smiled as she hugged him back tightly, giving him a quick peck on the cheek. She then nodded to both Shadow and Zack, confirming the plan in her head. She then looked around for a moment around the bloodstained dining room, then to the cold, dead corpse of their Queen. Her body just gave her the creeps, the way it looked, everything about it. But she followed after James quickly as he began to head for the door, a bit too fast. She too felt the darkness that dwelled behind the door, so overbearing that she almost didn't even wish to go any farther, but she must, for the memory and revenge of her most beloved sister, Jaclyne.

The monster Lillith conjured before her death soon arrived to the room where Jaclyne and the Cheshire Cat were. It let out a loud roar that shook the entire castle before bursting through the double doors, his eyes on Jaclyne. He swiped at her quickly, trying to finish her off quickly.

Jaclyne was thrown backwards against a wall as the creature broke through the door, herself panting heavily as she rubbed her head, clearly in pain. "Oh that's it!" She growled as she picked up her sword, infusing it with the corruption to make it bigger and stronger. She then yelled loudly as she attacked the creature, fury burning in her eyes.

The creature only smirked before growing in size, now the size of a two-story building. It let out another roar as Jaclyne stared at it wide-eyed. "Oh screw this..." She muttered bitterly to herself as she grabbed the Cheshire Cat and began to run down the hall, top speed. The beast grinned devilishly as it chased after her, trying to eat her as it closed in on them quickly. "Gah!" She cried as she ran, running into a door, bursting through it before she ran into something, or rather, someone. She felt them skid across the floor, the Cheshire Cat flying off somewhere. "Ugh...sorry..." She muttered as she got up, so that she was on her hands and knees over this person, panting heavily. She then looked down at the person, recognizing his jet-black hair, his dark eyes, his peevish smile. "Z...Z-Zack!?" She exclaimed happily as tears came to her eyes, hugging him quickly.

The beast them emerged into the room, roaring loudly as it entered the room, sniffing out Jaclyne quickly. It then grinned as it shot out acid spikes at everyone in the room. the spikes were full of a powerful demonic miasma, that if you got hit with it, they would die instantly.

Jaclyne glanced back before gasping softly. "Move!" She yelled before getting up and shoving Zack out of the way, themselves barely getting missed by some of the spikes.

Isabella and Cyrillia did the same with their men, all taking cover for the time being, before they got a better plan.

Britania heard the roar and woke up, she the opened her door and peaked out, seeing that the beast that was guarding her was gone. She blinked slightly before she began to follow the rubble and debris that was left over from when the beast was chasing down Jaclyne and the Cheshire Cat, wanting to hurry to join her siblings and their loves. She finally made her way over to the room before she ducked back, spikes landing in the exact position she was in a few seconds before. She was panting heavily now, clearly scared. She then ran over to the Alice's, moving them out of the way and to somewhere safe, until the creature stopped. "Are you okay?" She asked them as she stared at them, using her staff as a support system for her to lean on, still panting heavily from running from one side of the large chambers to the other.

[haha, there! oh! and don't worry Idril-san! Me gots a plan!! twisted hehehe. lol XD]

[No prob. rest for as long as you wish! the rp can wait!]

((Thank you botth so much for the moral support. You guys are amazing.))
Zack saw the spike fly by, and stunned in shock silent he was. Not from the spike, but from who'd knocked him over, who saved him. He looked at the girl, knowing precisely who she was, but not understanding how she could be there. He let his reflexes command his body. He shot up and saw Britania run in. Jaclyne right in front of him. He grabbed her arm, ran to the side and pulled up a large wall of earth. He needed to figure things out. "What the hell?" he asked in a shocked state. Not angry as much as confused.

Jamesgot flung against a wall and saw it graze by. "What is that thing?!" he asked, scared out of his wits. He jumped behind the earthly barrier as it was quickly being created, knowing Zack was behind it.

Dominic got flung through the air. "Well, things don't stay normal around here long, do they?" he asked sarcastically as he created an ice barrier. He wanted to be a bit more offensive. He iced the floor around the monster. The less mobile it was, the more predictable it could be.

Shadow merely raised his hand. "Up," was all he had to say, and the spikes made from corruption went into the ceiling. He could only make three at a time go up though. So he saved himself and the two alice's. Britania would have to fend for herself, he couldn't save everybody. He began to think about the corruption, about the monster. There had to be a way to control it. He controlled the shadow's, the darknes...the corruption... surely he could control the beast.

((i agree with dragonfire!! *waits for britania to tell alices what to do*))
