Welcome to Gaia! ::

Citedal's head slowly turned to follow Scytheress' movement. Its beam seemed to only widen, though ever so slightly, moments after it was fired. "You seem to know more about this then you let on Graves...so tell me, what is *that*?" Maru was speaking of the immense beam being fired from the center eye on the creature's head. "It is a blade, Maru...one which shall cleave the earth asunder if not stopped. But you place too much expectations in this simple strike, however powerful it may be. Even the greatest of power can be overcome...simply be ready on my mark." Solumone's eyes were closed, hand stretched out in the direction of the beast. Maru said nothing in return, staring off toward the creature as his answer to Solumone's comment. Solumone's hand shivered a little, then lifted up. As it did, Citedal's head began to quiver, then almost snap upward. It began to fight back against the sudden, unseen force which pushed its head. Yet even with its strength, it seemed to fail, as its head was pushed upward and the beam with it. Solumone's eyes opened and glanced to his side, first to Maru.

"Go, center of its back." without so much as a response, Maru immediately dashed toward the beast. His body went into a very low form as it ran, then his hands cut across the ground. A burst of dirt and grass raised from where a blast of electricity was sent, and Maru's form seemed to triple in speed as he came up toward the monster. "I notice you wish to help..." Solumone's eyes closed again, and through his mind these words spoke. But they were not directed to the two at his side, rather the one further off who recently entered, Acid. "I've observed you before...and I suggest you strike a bolt from the sky directly at the center of the creature's back now..." his eyes opened for but a moment before glancing toward Scy, then closing once more. "Do not hessitate, I know of what your power is my dear. Raise a ten foot spike from the earth. Do it now, there is no time to second guess..." again, his eyes opened and they glanced in the direction of the other two. "Stranger, direct your attack to the beast's head. Young Shien, direct your's at the base of its tail..." he smirked after that, bringing his attention back to the creature who still fought against the pull on its head. "This will be a grand moment indeed. Ashame Yusake could not be here, he might have decided to stop calling me 'Old Man'." he said with a bit of a laugh.

Scytheress had to throw herself to the side to evade the beam again as Citedal's head was thrown back. The attack came up unexpectedly and Scythe wasn't able to remove herself completely of its effects as her right foot was caught in the outter ring of the shot. She winced expecting some kind of pain or perhaps the loss of her foot entirely but as she stilled in the air and glanced down her foot was still intact only..it retained no color. Her pale skin had been turned an unnatural shade of grey, like the pigment had been completely drained. She watched in idleness the color begin to return just as Solumone's voice entered her head. She loathed telepathy of any sort and was reluctant to listen to his voice at all. It was only upon seeing Maru in motion that she decided her participation would be for the better.

There was no prelude to the great spike that was to erupt from the ground. Scytheress held out her hands, wrists together with her palms facing out and pointed toward the ground. An invisible stream of energy shot from her hands to the ground and it was channeled through the earth past Citedal where the ground suddenly moved an within the same second a great solid spike shot forth. It's tip was coated with shards of glass that had seeped under the soil all coming to a bladed point. The spike would raise fifteen feet into the air about four meters behind Citedal and to the left, broadening the closer to the base it was, the foot coming to a total of five feet across.

Scytheress slowly lowered to the ground, her wing beats slowing until they stopped entirely as her feet touched down. Her right foot seemed fine now which a slight wiggle of her toes proved even as she kept her eyes on Citedal and the others. She'd feel no sympathy for anyone caught by her spike, after all Solumone was the one who told her to do it so she wouldn't hold herself accountable.

Acid breathed in the smokey air from his cig, this was the life... He growled slightly as Grave's words reached his ears. He was in a mood, not a bad mood... just a mood and this mood didn't allow for heartless banter. His body was pulsing, not physicaly but the power radiating inside his body could raise the hair on the back of the neck of a person miles away.

He inhaled his cig like it was nothing, breathing out the sweet vanilla smoke that seemed to dissolve in the air. He took a few steps forward and smiled... Grave knows what to do.. If anything the idiot probably owned this thing. "Alright...... Lets get the ******** to it." Acid said these words quietly but with enough force to allow the message to reach Grave.

He cracked his neck and lept clean and clear into the sky which clouded over once again in a gigantic boiling black crucible of pain and suffering. It roared and snapped at the ground with a rage that could only be saited through violence. The clouds rolled over each other as the sky tried to swipe at the ground with bursts of thunder, the crack of sound licking the eart with almost obscene cruelty. Acid's body rose further and further until it was swallowed by the savage wall of nature that was the jet black sky, like a stampede of elephants running across the sky. The silence that followed was deafening... the clouds continued to attack each other in a frenzy but made no cries of pain.

Then a flash of white light stretched across the sky, grabbing on to the watchers eyes and not letting go. With that a bolt struck down, an epic bolt of blue and white. It shattered the sky as it came down, bringing the wrath of the heavens down with it. In the center was Acid, sword drawn as he swan dived down, down into the beasts back. There was a rapture of light and sound as he aimed his blade and the giant pillar of electricity fell down between Citedals shoulders.

((Eh, that's too bad. We can RP later then))

Feena walked into the admist of the courtyard, she had a long slender black jacket on and leather pants. A pitch black scarf covered her deadly lips as she walked deeper into the courtyard. Her long jet black hair was tied up in a messy bun and her guitar strapped behind her. A normal person would think, why is she wearing such heavy clothes when its a perfectly nice day. Her reason was, its too cold for her and she thought it isn't that sunny.

"Hmmm..that cat. He looks strangly familer." she murmured softly, a little soft echoe of her voice could be heard as she walked up to the tree where she saw the white cat jump into. She came to a sudden hault, and stared up through the tree. Though, there was some leaves blocking her view. With a grin, she cupped her hands over her blood-lust eyes and finally spoke to the creature.

"Excuse me, do i know you?" she didn't feel stupid talking to a cat, she knew this cat had the ability to speak, she can feel it through her viens.

Her grin vanished, but she wasn't frowning, she was rather emotionless. Her hand still cupping over her eyes because of the sun shining through the leaves, thus making the cat looking like he is god or some holy aura at it. But that wasn't true since this cat seems like he kisses his mother with his words (xD). She then loosened her black scarf so maybe her words could be heard clearly.

"I never said if i ever seen you, i said if i ever known you.." she said with a grin, she was the one in the family who got the brains. Sakura was the one who got the beauty, Oliver is the one who got the playful charm, and Hiro. Well, Hiro got the dumb look yet dangerous at the same time. Hiro is hard to rpedict sometimes.

"Oh! Now i know! You're that cat named Popoki. Nohea's cat. Sakura has told me all about you after the festival" she said, finally smiling only over her triumph of remembering this poor cat. She covered her smile with another grin, was this cat running away again? Silly felines.

"So, what brings a cat out here with its master? Oh by the way, i'm Feena, I'm Sakura's older sister" she said as she leaned against the tree. No longer wanting to stand in the way of the sun, it was ruining her eyesight anyways.

((xD))

Feena sat down, keeping her back on the trunk of the tree as she listened closely to the cat. He, the cat, seemed nice but in a rather rude way, kind of. It made her smile, she's never seen a cat with a complex personality. But, its rare to see Feena smile, it was almost magic. But her smile broke, she can keep a secret, right? Of course, she hasn't even spilled any of Sakura Ai's secrets because Feena is one of Sakura Ai's closet and trustworthy friend.

"I can keep a secret. Trust me, the reason for secrets is for them is to never be known" she said as she took her scarf off. Was it just her, but was the temperature raising sinse she woke up. She also took off her black jacket revealing a black tank top, with a red drgon design on the side.

"Trying for the human, eh? I'll tell you what. You're almost like Sakura. She hates being an angel, she always wanted to be a human when she was younger. She would tell me that huamsn have it easy" she said with a smile as she remembered those days, but they were long again. She shook her head lightly as the wind gushed against her fragile skin, causing her long black hair to sway.

"But, thats a secret to, don't tell Sakura I told you." she said, it was an equalivant exchange. A secret for another secret.

"I can help you" she added soon after her previous sentence.
