Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ship

Vure slowly circled to the deck where he breifly looked around at everyone around. His teeth where clenched and his fists where clenched into fists in Kire's shirt. He was trying to will himself back to his safe place. Closing his eye he began to walk away. If someone was going to lose control it was going to be him, at least he could think and fight. The blood contiuned to drip slow steady drops, leaving a trail of blood spots in his wake.

Faven stableized Rena after some very tricky work. He was satisfied but knew that wasn't nearly enough. Without further treatment she would die anyway. Gritting his teeth he wished he had his jacket; it had his special pills that he knew exactally what did. He contiued to work on her but he needed more.

Sinrith met with Zeik and after claming him down from his near death experiance they headed for Heme's room to see if Komoro had left him alive.

Heme moaned opening his eyes. Trying to sit up the room spun and he colapsed to the floor. He could hear fighitng up on deck, Faven hadn't hit him hard enough. He cursed rubbing his head, where he had a bump. He lay on the floor his stomach twisting as he listened to the sounds.

Ship

Fuego smiled. "Nah. I'm fine. Didn't get enough of a fight to get any real injuries." He was still tired from all the events that had happened this month. He wasn't sure if he would be happy to relax at home. He always got into a fight or burned things. "What about you?" Fuego had a worried look in his eye. He tired not to show it. He figured that May didn't need babying. The wound didn't look to bad at least. He was also fighting the urge to attack Kire and Vure for hurting May.


"Hello." Komoro appeared right behind Kalm. "Faven."

Kalm jumped about 10 feet in the air when Komoro appeared. "I told you not to do that!" Kalm sighed. "I found Faven. He ran off as soon as he got on deck.

Rai laughed when Kalm jumped, but his attention was diverted to the conversation about Faven. "You found him!?"

"Not dead."

"Well that's good. At least we know that much. Shouldn't be to hard to find him."


Izeno's Dark Side laughed darkly. "Looks like Izeno's little girlfriend is running out of time, Alpha Male." A smirk spread across his face. "And I win."

He was right. Rena wasn't doing to good. Unless the ship turned around soon, Rena might not make it to the hospital... That would not go over well with Izeno...

Keith flew at Izeno, at break neck speed. He threw a kick at Izeno's head, and Izeno ducked. Keith threw another kick that contacted with Izeno's middle. Izeno rolled across the deck, laying flat on his back. Keith was flying through the air, attacking Izeno from above when Izeno rolled out of the way just barely missing the attack. Keith appeared right behind Izeno and swung his sword, as Izeno swiftly ducked, tripping Keith as he did so.

Keith spun on his back, almost kicking Izeno the face. Izeno just managed to avoid it doing a move that looked like a totally Matrix rip off. Keith lunched himself up into the air, as Izeno did a couple of back flips. Keith came flying towards Izeno. His sword made contact with his hand, which was glowing bright purple. Izeno's Dark Side had caught Keith's sword with Darkness.

"Is that the best you can do?" Izeno's Dark Side ask, as his hand became brighter. He released the energy and Keith was sent flying backwards. Keith slammed into a wall. He wasn't sure whether it was the wall to the stairs of the lower deck or of the navigation room. But one thing was for sure it hurt. Keith stood up, whipping blood from his mouth. Izeno's Dark Side was coming right at him, dark energy radiating from his hand. Keith moved his head to the side just in time, and Izeno's fist went right throw the wall.

Keith took the potion and was about to inject it into Izeno when he smacked the potion right out of Keith's hand. Keith ducked, and jumped to the side when Izeno swiped at him with the hand that wasn't stuck in the wall. He growl furiously when Keith did so. Keith looked around frantically on the floor for the potion. He found it, and jumped through the air, diving for the potion. It had almost rolled off the deck, but Keith had managed to catch it. He was hanging halfway off the deck, and breathed a sigh of relief.

The relief was short lived when Izeno's Dark Side pulled him back unto the deck, hand around his throat. Keith clawed at Izeno's hand, trying to suck in a breath of air. "I am so going to enjoy killing you." Izeno's Dark Side not only looked clearly pissed off, but looked as if all of his sanity had been lost with Keith's breath. "How do you want to die Keith? Do you want to be obliterated by my Dark Energy?" Keith could feel Izeno's hand warm up ever so slightly. "Or maybe I should stab you with your own sword and just leave you here bleeding?" Keith cried out as he felt a sharp pain go through his leg. "Maybe I should just throw you to the icy oceans below?" Izeno's Dark Side held Keith out over the deck. "Tell me Keith what do you think?"

"I think you need to go back into the hole your crawled out of," Keith wheezed. "And give Izeno back." He jabbed the potion into Izeno's Dark Side's arm, but he didn't seem to notice. Izeno's eyes narrowed. "You'll pay for that remark." He threw Keith up against another wall, this time leaving a dent. Keith cried out in pain, on his hands and knees. He was gasping for air and choking, one hand around his throat. There was a jolt of pain in his side every time his sucked in a breath. He probably had a couple of broken ribs.

Keith coughed blood on to the deck of the ship. Izeno lifted Keith up once again, this time by his shirt collar. Suddenly, Izeno dropped Keith. He fell to his hands and knees. Blood feel from his lips. "What you'd do to me?" His pupils were dilated, a look loathing and fear in them as they bore into Keith's.

Keith laughed. "Relax. You're not dying. You'll just pass out. When Izeno wakes up you'll be right back in that cozy little cage of yours." He hoped. "YOU-" It was the last thing Izeno said before passing out face first on the deck. Keith listened for a few minutes. He could hear Izeno's even breathing, the raise and fall of his chest. Izeno wasn't dead. Thank God.


Darkness Realm

Izeno groaned. Where was he? He felt like a truck has hit him, then back up a couple of times. He stood up, blinked, trying to find his way in the dark. Last thing he remember... His Dark Side had taken over. Where was he now? Was this his head. He stumbled around in the darkness for what seemed like hours, until a bright light was shining down on him. Izeno blinked, trying to let his eyes adjust.

He groaned when he saw Alri. The five other council members were seated around him. The next thing he noticed was they had their errand boy with them... Well he was more like Secretary of State for the Darkness Realm, but Izeno didn't see him that way. Dark Matter was also off in a corner. Izeno narrowed his eyes. He didn't like the way things were going and he had just got here.

"Izeno. It has been a while since I've seen you." Alri smiled, as if remembering some sweet memory the two shared. It was an act of coarse. Izeno knew their were no good memories of his visits here. "If seems that you've had a rather unfortunate... accident."

"So who's to blame? Did you bend the rules again?" Izeno's tone was sharp, like a knife.

Alri chuckled. "On the contrary, Izeno. It was Keith who did the deed. That is besides the point. I have a deal for you."

"Really? Well you can take your deal and shove it."

Dark Matter shook his head. "Don't do that!"

Izeno blinked, surprised by his sudden outburst.

"Clam down, Dark Matter. I see you are not in light of your current situation, Izeno..." Alri said. He looked like he was trying to figure something out.

"Yeah? Well enlighten me."

"You can either work for me or you'll disappear."

"You'll kill me, is that it? Blackmail?"

"What is wrong with you?! You never used to be this thick!" Dark Matter sucked in a breath. "Look, Izeno-" Dark Matter looked at Alri, apologizing for the sudden outburst and asking for permission to speak.

Alri nodded.

"Izeno..." Dark Matter looked at Izeno with sad eyes. Almost like he was going to tell a mother and father that their beloved son died. It was strangely human for something from the Darkness Realm. "You're dead."

Izeno's eyes got wide. "What?"

"You're dead. The potion Keith gave you... It was suppose to suppress your Dark Side until you got your powers back. But it had a 50% chance of killing you. None of them know that you're dead. You're heart is still beating, you're still breathing... There isn't a soul occupying your body right now, Dark Side sealed and all," Dark Matter explained.

"What's the point of that?"

"Don't you want to see Rena again? The pack?"

"I'm offering you a job Izeno. As a Reaper. Work for me and you'll get your body back in due time," Alri smiled.

"Don't play your mind games with me. I want to know details."

"Two months at the most."

"After I'm alive?"

"Well you'll still be working for me of coarse, but you'll be living in the Real World. I'll give you missions, and you'll do them."

"So I'm your slave for life, is that it?"

"You'll be able to see Rena and the pack at least."

"I don't want to live forever. I want to die... when Rena dies." Izeno knew that Alri wouldn't just let him go. Izeno was to precious for Alri to just let die. So 200 years at most was better than dying right now. He assumed both Rena and himself would be in their 190's before they started to slow down. Wolf experiments usually lived for twice that of a humans. Anywhere from 190- 240. So if Rena died before he did. He didn't want to be kept around for Alri to be a pawn. He didn't want to be around if Rena wasn't.

Alri chuckled. "You drive a hard bargain, but alright."

Ship

"I'll be fine with a few stitches." She assured him. Mayithra looked over to Rena, "She doesn't look too good though." She thought for a moment that she could move her if she was in her dragon form, but Rena was about the same size... Maybe May would be able to move her if Rena was able to switch back to her normal form?

Ship

Keith slowly got up and walked over to Sho. "I wouldn't be wise to keep Izeno here. I really don't know if the other Hunters are still after him or not. It probably would be a good idea for Faven to leave, also. If you go now, the might not follow you." Keith said. He that wasn't a sure thing, but maybe if they hid themselves well enough...

Sho sighed. "I really don't think my powers could be of any help right now. I could carry Rena at her current weight, but I couldn't do it for a while." He had no idea how far they were from the ocean or where that other ship was at all. Then there was the fact that moving her could cause more damage... Sho looked up at Komoro. "Take Izeno else where. Back to the hotel, preferable. You can go to the Darkness Realm if you must."

Komoro nodded, picked up Izeno, and jumped into a Darkness Portal. He wasn't going to stay in the Darkness Realm, it was just a much faster way to get to the hotel.

Aissure

Virus smiled when Zen hugged her and she couldn’t help but lean into it. The warmth of his body eased her mind and the care in his voice brought her comfort. Snapping out of it when she felt the wet of Shadows tongue on her hand she leaned back from Zen and pet shadows head smiling sweetly at him. “Not being caught is a good plan. I was born into it so I didn’t have that option but now I do. So avoiding them sounds really good… We do need to go back into danger, you must remember. You need their systems in order to do that…” Virus looked back down the cave where they came from wondering if the jet might have what she needed she knew Atrum was right. She felt empty inside and even though having people to talk to kept her from losing her mind she still needed computers. “Is there a town around here? As much as I hate it I do need to stay fairly close to technology its how I stay connected to the world.” ((I am so sorry it took so long. I had a family emergency and was unable to get to a computer))

Ship

Kurai nodded Faven before diving back into the water and taking a few deep breathsA monent later she allow the squid to lift her back up. "Sorry I can't really leave the water." Looking over at Faven and everyone else she asks, "then what are we going to do? I could go find the ship, but can we even move everyone onto it?"

Ship

Sho sighed. What a time for Yuna to not be here... It wasn't like they could go and get her either. She was in Siscore and it would take a couple of days for anyone to get there... Nias was much closer... "Are your supplies back in Nias."

Fuego perked his head up. He had seen Vure shooting upwards into the sky. He was slightly worried about it, but pushed it to the back of his mind, considering Rena's situation.

"There was a medical room on the ship... Would there be something that could help there?" Kalm asked.

Darkness Realm

Izeno was sitting on top of a small house. It's left side was raised up to two stories while the right side was only one. Izeno was sitting on the roof of the house that was two stories. There was a full moon tonight and everything was painted in an eerie glow. There was a full moon every night in the Darkness Realm. Of coarse they never saw the sun. When day time came, it just became light. Izeno looked up to the sky full of stars. There were a couple of grey-blue clouds floating by.

He knew it would never be light in this part of the Darkness Realm. He was in the City of Night. It's name said it all. It was never day time here. The invisible sun never shown. It was home to Dark Matter's race of Dark Elves...They were just outside the city. A couple miles into the thick forest that surrounded it.

Izeno thought back to everything that had happened these past days. He had gone through the initiation to become a Reaper...Reapers... He had no idea why he was here in the City of Night. He knew Alri told him he would stay with Dark Matter... But Reaper usually stayed around Silent Hill. Silent Hill was quite a ways from here... Izeno sighed tracing the new mark around his eye. The mark of a Reaper. 'Keepers of the peace' as Alri called them. The marking started right above and below the pupil. There were two black lines that ran parallel to each other until they reach the side of the eye that was closet to the side of the head. The lines then turned into a pattern of a couple different swirls.

"How you holding up?"

Izeno jumped at Dark Matter's voice. Ugh. He hated that things could sneak up on him here. Everything was a threat. Anything could attack him at any moment. He wasn't the only one with powers. Everyone had a power her and everyone knew how to use it.

"Can't sleep?"

Izeno sighed. "You know I don't sleep."

"You sleep around Rena."

"Rena doesn't try and kill me." Actaully it was the nightmares that kept him awake when she wasn't near.

"Miss her?"

"No." That was a lie. "..." Izeno changed the subject. "How long as passed since I've been here?"

"Couple of days... It's probably only been a day in the real world."

"I hate not being able to tell."

Dark Matter laughed. "You'll get used to it. The flow of time here. Pretty soon you'll be able to tell down to how many seconds have pasted without thinking about it."

The flow of time in the Darkness Realm was rather weird. For everyday two days that passed here, one day passed in the real world. Time didn't seem to matter in the Darkness Realm. Things rarely died of natural causes. Unless you wanted to count the cause of everyone has to eat. There were enough monsters and enough fights that went on to keep the population down. If something died of something like natural causes... Well then it made the news... Or whatever form of news they had.

((So if you have any question just ask... There's a lot to take in when dealing with the Darkness Realm.))

Ship

Faven loosed a frustrated, agonizing sigh. "No, it would be on the ship but I couldn't find it." he paused sucking in a short breath. " I already went through Heme's stuff, anything that might be more helpful, isn't labeled and I don't know what is." he was thoroughly annoyed that Heme didn't label his home made meds and that he didn't have time to make the proper meds Rena needed. HE knew what he needed and knew that he had had some special pills made but he didn't know where they were.

Zeik's gaze kept landing on Vure as he scanned those on the deck. He saw Feugo and felt the desire to run him through but didn't even twitch a muscle. He was far too occupied with attempting to figure out what had brought Vure to his current state. He was also trying to determine how much longer Vure could just sit there in the air watching, when like this Vure was rarely inactive for longer than a few minutes.

After a minute Vure began to slowly circle around observing those below. He began to slowly pick up speed as time went on.
