He smiled at her comment, though not visable within the poor light, he decided to close the door once she was all the way through. Once the gaint doorway was closed, the entire room was engulfed within a warm glow. Torches upon torches burst into flames, as a gaint almost endless hallway was before them. A large red-velvet colored carpet lead from the entrance to the other end of this large manifestation, and towards what appeared to be a massive statue of a dragon.
He looked around in awe as he noticed high above them large tapestries depicting many battles were reflected upon their surface and then he quickly unsheathed his twin daggers and whispered softly to Neva Lee after relizing something, "This..is a guild hall. I dont know how we got in with out a pass, but something is up."
He saw the small little grunty on the top of the first teir of stairs (there are three all together that lead to the dragon statue; Example of a grunt is in my signature). He saw it was wearing an odd looking japanese hat, and its eyes were hidden. An errie laughter could be heard echoing within the room.
"I cant believe the luck, the two who decided to take us on, have stumbled into a hall full of those who love to kill others."
He gazed around and couldnt spot where the voice had come from.

A little cold shiver shoots down Neva Lee's spine, causing her a small bit of surprise; though she knows that it has nothing to do with the enviornment of the game her brain quickly supplies the cold as a reason, reluctant to admit to itself that that voice was somewhat frightening. Frowning she looks about, searching for the voice as well, body becoming tenser and hands clenching into fists to ready themselves for attack. Though she never really take her gaunlets off, they being her favorite weapon and fighting style, she moves to put them on before remembering that they're already there.
It's not as though she doesn't have much experience with Player Killers, her best friend becomes one on occasion and she often makes jokes of being the most PK'd newbie when she first joined The World, but the prospect of being in a place full of them has her stressed out to wits end. There dominat rational part of her mind chooses to point out it's only a game and she'll be fine, and besides, couldn't they just leave back out through the doors?; but right now she isn't feeling so rational. "What luck we appear to have," She whispers lightly and rather calmly despite the new atmosphere, "Wouldn't you agree?" Neva Lee adds, giving a wry lopsided smile.

"It appears so," he smiled. He was very glad not to be here alone. He sheaths his twin daggers and unsheaths his multiple target scythe. Its large compared to his own size, and the blade has a chainsaw like effect to it as it turns on. The hundred or so spikes begin to spin wildly upon the Scythes blade.
"..We can run if you want," He was hoping she'd want to stay and fight, after all he wasnt one to run from a fight, even if the odds where stacked.
As they stood there, slowly one by one player killers of all sorts began to emerge behind the small grunty. One by one until the numbers were to vast to keep an accurate count. He chuckled to himself nervously, but it was almost funny that they had to out number the two of them so overwhelmingly.
"Honestly, Cant you guys have some dignity," He shouted towards the crowd, he himself getting into a crouched down position, with his scythe slightly pulled back behind him.
"When you both can take on six of us like it was nothing, we have no choice but to go all out," the only man in the far background positioned higher then the rest yells. Clearly he was the Guild Leader.
"Cowards..," he mutters, Neva Lee would be the only one to hear him.
Black dots can be seen forming off the wall behind this so-called guild leader, Azrael doesnt see them as he looks straight at the masses before him. He seems to ignore the guild leader. The masses inch forward , getting ready to slaughter Neva and Azrael.

Zami smiled at the name. "Buckles, eh? I like that. Honestly, I do," she said, still smiling. At least she had made a good call about talking to Merielle; the player could have been a real pain or just an annoying newbie. At her question, Zami shrugged. She considered her answer, that she had been bored and possibly in the market for an adventure. It seemed fairly pathetic. She stopped smiling and sighed. "A bit bored on my end. I usually go off solo, but it's been getting tiresome lately." She paused, listening to something in the real world. Hotaru rolled her eyes as her mom came home. It wasn't like she was going to bother her. "If you're interested, maybe we could put a few area words together and find ourselves in a worthwhile situation. What do you say, Merielle?" Zami held her hand out, a sly grin on her face.

Despite being perfectly calm on the outside, Neva Lee is having to face a rather difficult decicion; attempt to tak on an entire guild of proffesiona Player Killers with just one other person, or run? Well, maybe it wasn't that difficult... Still, it did bother her that Azrael had somehow knew she had been considering running, was it possiable her touch with seeming emotionless had failed her? To make up for it she merely smiles sweetly and slips into a bit of a fighting stance. "Actually, I do believe we defeated seven of you; though I don't blame you for forgetting, that Harvest Cleric could barely count, they so very sadly didn't put up a fight." She almost purrs, a bit pleased with herself with having come up with that off the very top of her head and on such short notice.
She slips a bit more forward, the amused light dying out in her eyes as the more cold and animalistc side seems to take over, faced once again with a kind of danger she so easily slips into the semi-berserker mode. Neva Lee's mind, however, is still working perfectly fine at this moment and she takes assesment of the mass, trying to get in a few plans before her mind completely slips away and she charges blindly into them as is the norm when outnumbered. Sadly, the only real plan she has is to "take out as many of them as you can before they take you out and hope you leave the rest of them praying not to meet you again", though that thought causes her to smile; wouldn't it be amusing if after this the most PK'd newbie had PKKer added to the list of rumors spread about her?

As the masses rear and jar their way towards Azrael and Neva Lee, the Black dots now extend outwards from the wall behind the guild leader and slam into his backside. A loud scream can be heard, it chills Azrael's soul alittle as that scream almost sounded as if he was really in pain?! He clenched his scythe even tighter and couldnt help but to notice the enemy guild leader was hunched over in pain. He whispers to Neva Lee, "Whats going on?"
The crowd now was slowly creeping past the grunty, and he found himself taking a step back, oddly enough feeling nervous for the first time in awhile. He mutters under his breath, "Somethings not right, he shouldnt feel pain, should he?!"
The Guild leader is thrusted slightly into the air, as orbs of blackness swarm in and out of him, his screaming even stops his guildmates from advancing further, as his entire guild turns to look at him.
"What the hell are those black dots," He says to you in a faint whisper, " are they hacking?"
[[ Klepto, you may decided how you feel this, but your real player is feeling something growing within at the sight of these black orbs. ]]

Eyes widening slightly at the sight of the strange black things basically tearing the Player Killers apart Neva Lee tries several times, quite unsucessfully, to supress the exact nature of the enotions that are now quite clearing running across her face: shock, fear, anger, and a slight curiousity as to what is exactly going on. Gulping slightly she starts backing up slowly, instinct to run clashing with the knowldge that most creatures attack faster and with more deadly procession when you run from them, and this time that little rational voice isn't even around to tell her that it's only a computer program.
Outside of The World Seraphina is staring in what is pretty much wide eyed terror at the inside of her headset, hands basically frozen except for the slow inching of moving Neva Lee backwards; in her mind she's trying to figure out when exactly she fell asleep playing the game, because nothing like this has ever happened except inside her worst nightmares. "I... I would ha-have to say so..." Neva Lee replies in a very weak whisper, stumbling slightly over her words. "I think we should run very far, very fast, very right now." She continues in a slightly stronger though still very low whisper, swiviling slightly back towards the doors to run.
Though she has a history of getting too emotionally involved in games, something that's oddly ironic seeing as how she acts as though she has no emotions, something is warning her deep from inside that these things are not to be taken lightly and not to be triffled with; and that same something feels as if it's trying to suffocate her from inside. Gulping heavily again and trying to push it back down, she at last decides that she isn't dreaming, because normally in nightmares that effect her this badly she would've woken up by now.

 InnisInnis's data was retrieved from the system of The World through the Salvage Project designed by the genius programmer Jyotaro Amagi. The data was implanted into an Epitaph PC in the hopes that it could be controlled by CC Corp. The Innis Epitaph PC was given to an unknown player for a test run at CC Corp's headquarters in Japan. Unfortunately the test was a disaster, and in the aftermath of the chaos created by the test Innis's data was able to escape into the system, where it would remain hidden as The World was changed into The World R:2. Common SkillsEnergy Shot: Innis fires numerous energy blasts out from her sword-like objects rotating on the circle-like object on her back.
Slash: Innis tries to get close and slashes you with her twin blades up to three times.
Haze of Treason: Innis turns tranparent and starts dashing towards her enemy. If she touches you or if you attack when she is not stunned, her illusionary copy would disappear and she'll jump in and attack from the side with a devastating slash.
Confusion Flight: Innis will start to fly wildly around in a plane-like formation attempting to charge at her enemy and will fire multiple shots while moving about.
Data Drain: Innis concentrates her power between her hands and charges up her power with the stems sticking out from her back before launching it at its Target. Enemy has to be near death to use. ___________________________________________ A faded image appears before you and you alone, the image of Innis, (reference image) flickers before you. A voice can be heard:"the power of illusions to assist the Cursed Wave, Host of Innis, Child of Morganna, let the power you feel explode.. call her, she will aid you."Azrael stands there unaware of what you hear or see, as she stands infront of you, seeing you acting slightly odd for yourself, he is slightly confused by the sudden change in behavior, however he wasnt surprised entirely. The Guild leader began to grow black arm light appendages from his back, and slowly began to take on a spider look appearence. His guildmates seem to disperse back to where they had hidden before frightened of their guildleader and sudden appearence change. He felt like running to, but... he was acting foolish and was standing his ground even after seeing this sudden change. "Neva Lee, are you ok," He whispered without turning around towards her. He was actually worried for her.[If you call it forth, your character will be within Innis...]

Staring blankly at her screen for a moment she's absolutely deaf to Azrael's question, and the strange black things seem almost completely forgotten for the moment; in fact, all in all, she feels frighteningly calm suddenly. 'Call... her?' She wonders to herself, peering skeptically at the image and yet unable at the same time to just brush the thought away; theres the little rational voice inside her head that's suddenly back and claiming that it's all just a game, but instinct dictates that now things are different, and she doesn't often argue with either one. 'Cursed Wave? Morganna? Illusions?' She questions herself, eyes narrowing at the voice, unintentionally tilting her head to catch the sounds.
Sighing Neva Lee blinks, trying to focus again on what's going on around her, she's sure she heard Azrael speaking, but what was it he said? '"Call her, she will aid you."' She repeats mentally to herself, finally taking in the scene that's occuring around her, and immediteatly her heart breaks back out into it's sprint. 'I could certianly use help now, but... how am I supposed to call her, exactly?' She wonders to herself, frowning. It should probably be rather simple, but most likely it's something so simple she doesn't quite understand. "Innis?" She wonders aloud, testing quietly to see if this is what the voice had meant.

Nothing happends. The feeling still is inside your player's stomach but it boils as if fueled by emotion, and your sudden calming nature keeps it at bay. The dark orbs now fully absorbed into the Guild Leader causing the Guild leader to go into a chaotic frenzie.
He charges towards the both of you, his spider appendages tapping on the floor rapidly, a low hissing sound can be hear escaping his mouth, and a rasp sound of words shutter through the air, "Revenge..is now within my control of power!"
The Guild Leader Swipes its large black tendril towards Azrael, as he uses the shaft of his scythe to block the attack, but him and his scythe are litterally thrown up and off the ground, slamming hard into the wall. He litterally cant move.. as if his player behind Azrael's character is knocked out as well from the attack. A low groaning noise can be heard from Azrael.
"I felt that..," he thought to himself trying to take off his visor, he couldnt. He couldnt take his visor off. His mind began to race in panic as he thought to himself, "Whats going on.. why cant I move, why cant I take this off..."
The Spider Like Black Entity now stands before you Neva Lee, and the voice of Innis is screaming within you to let her out...

For a short period of time she runs around inside her head like a hamster on a wheel, simuntaneously noting the fact that she's panicking so badly she's frozen and noting that she is indeed running about inside her mind like a hamster on a wheel, an expression which is slightly annoying given the situation and only vaguely noticed. The fear of this strange thing attacking her next or hurting Azrael is mixing with the blind anger of someone hurting someone she considers a friend, the confusion of why calling out didn't work, and the infernal gnawing feeling in her stomach of something trying to get out; and that expression has just brought forth from her mind a mental image of an alien bursting out of her. Yes, she's definately panicking, she's not even making sense to herself anymore
Body ignores mind at last and rushes forward to meet the strange spider creature, pulling back her gauntlets to attack, but instead of the quite mindless roar of anger she had been expecting herself to yell as she observed vaugely the events from the back of her own mind, she called out the same name again, almost as if her voice was somehow stuck in a lopp and couldn't get past that one word.

[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcJL3c1QVUk&feature=related Just so u can get an idea if I dont depict it well enough minus the black dots in your case =P ]
A blinding light can be seen, as the entire guild hall shatters, and crumbles away. When the light fades, you find yourself, Azrael, and this Spider Like AIDA creature suspended in a network looking dimension. Strains of data can be seen raining down in the backdrop, and a hew of purple and black seem to be clashed against one and each other. Azrael slowly rises from where he laid, but with his free hand he clings onto his other arms biscep, while that hand is occupied with his scythe. His eyes open up in amazement as he stumbled backwards bewildered by what he sees.
"What.. what is going."
He looks beneath him and see that he is suspended in air and data seems to be passing about in random locations. He looks to you and sees you as Innis, no wait.. he see's your transparent character within Innis. He then looks to the spider creature and is at a loss for words.

For a moment Seraphina just sits there, eyes wide and staring blankly as what can only be accurately described as pure unadultered rage and an insane urge to destroy that strange creature fills her mind; she feels... different, not the same, and she feels like she can't think at all and yet somehow shes there still, whispering in the back of her own mind. It's almost like when she enters the near berserker mode when stressed out, but stronger; she can't influence this new part of herself by prompting it to do as she wishes, it's in complete control and she's merely a passenger forced along for the ride.
Fingers fly across her controller faster than ever and in the next second Neva Lee, Innis, or whatever it is that they are together closes the gap between herself and the spider creature, slashing wildly at it repeatedly in a strange imitation of the way she favors her Rapid Attack while in her semi-berserker mode. Heart pounding rapidly and adreniline flowing an almost strange calm falls over the tiny part of Neva Lee's mind that's still completely Seraphina; she doesn't have to worry anymore, Innis can take care of everything, she doesn't have to stress out anymore about the Player Killers which are now gone or the strange black things or the odd spider creature, and yet stress is exactly what she's feeling right now.
The drive, the need, the want, the desire to completely obiliterate this disgusting thing is all she can think about and focus on, aside from the soft whisper at the back of her mind that everything will be fine now. The sprinting of her own heart, her panting breath, and the vauge throbing of her own veins in her eyesight are background noise, white noise, to the accompanyment of the sound of something not quite herself inside her own mind demanding that she not hold back in destroying this thing.
((Did I do good?))
