Welcome to Gaia! ::

"If removing the trackers causes any kind of pain, then just leave me here." Erik looked at Jon quizzically. He let Jon go, and Jon went and sat down near a tree. "Listen, Erik, you need to know something about me..." Erik sat down facing Jon. "Listen. I've never told you about my past, but now the situation is to dire for me to hold out any longer." He looked towards the others. "You may all want to hear this, this will be the only time I tell everyone about my past." Jon looked at Erik, and began: "It all began about 1000 years ago. Back then, my parents were alive. They were nuclear scientists who had just developed a way to clean nuclear radiation. It was decided to test this device inside the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, which had triggered one of the most disastrous radiation fallouts in history. I went with my parents in order to help test the device. There were many others, of all nations, all wanting to see if this device worked. Something went wrong. The device exploded, releasing a huge amount of nuclear radiation. It hit every last one of us. All the men died, except me. I was the only man that survived. Every woman survived as well, but they changed. They grew taller, stronger, some of them developed powers that no one could explain. I did too. My bones became coated in a form of radioactive diamond, but they're only radioactive within my body. Which means the trackers could have already been destroyed. I gained the ability to control diamonds, and create them to. But this blessing came with a curse. You know how we all have primal instincts? Mine are much more powerful. The more damage I take, and the more i fight, the closer I go to insanity. I've tried to hide my abilities, but unfortunately, I can't any longer. Since my bones are coated in diamond, I'm practically immortal, but I can't control myself if i get too enraged. I tried to bite that woman... bite her head off. It's a blessing...and a curse."

((Yes, I know that this will make Jon seem like a god, but I threw that whole dark corruption thing in there to balance it out. Jon doesn't use his diamonds ever, by the way. And he can be hurt, he's immortal only for the fact that his vital organs are covered by diamond bones, but he can be knocked out, shocked, even killed if you're using an exploding weapon.))

((All Jon's saying is that those who survived the radiation like he did gained the same abilities as the infected ones. But, the radioactively poisoned people tried hunting Jon down, so he had them all killed before the year 2500. I should have said that sooner.))

((I should hope, I was thinking of having it where someone created the diease out of the radiation, but it seemed much too stupid.))

Alexi could picture it. Leading the guard in defense of Grigor, ever ready to stop any threat. Little did he know that Grigor was under assault now, and that the heart of the rebellion was about to be sliced.

"Hello Serrenedy. I have a question: HOW IN ALL OF HELL DID YOU MANAGE TO FAIL???!!!! All I wanted was you to go up to the mountain where the rebels where, and left behind a smoldering ruin. But you have to go and screw it all up! Please, tell me how you could possibly lose to a bunch of corn-fed country folk? And your answer better be good, or else!"

Jon was still finding it difficult to suppress his emotions. Very unhealthy, but needed in the current situation. Erik pulled out a EMF: ElectroMagnetic Finder. Basically, it sensed electric fields wherever they might be. Erik ran the EMF over Jon's body, and the thing went haywire. Jon smiled. "The radiation destroys any electric device inside my body and scrambles electric fields near me. So, the trackers are gone, buddy." Erik shrugged and put the thing away. Jon got up, testing his legs. They worked. Jon walked along, singing a little song. All Erik caught of it was this: "We fought so hard how can we understand? I'll break the seal of this curse if I possibly can, for freedom of every man!"

(Note: I'm controlling the leaders of both factions for story purposes... They will not have profiles.)

"Well then, it seems a stronger force is nessisary to sweep these rebels away." A voice said from behind Karoline, and Kiane, the high queen, emerged from the shadows.

Alexi could hear the sounds of battle ahead, and he raced forward.
"Finally, some fighting!" He said, leaping into the heart of battle. Grigor was surrounded, but he was quick and lithe, avoiding the enemy's strikes.

"You never know how stupid people can be... anyway, it's good to see you again, Kiane. I-" Something started beeping. Karoline recognized that tone. It meant that one of the satellites had found Jon. She went over to her HoloTV(I'm just making s**t up), and accessed the file. There was Jon, fighting alongside the rebels. Karoline smiled. "I don't mean to cut this conversation short, but i have a score to settle. I've got an old friend to meet up with."

Jon groaned. He hadn't yet calmed down. He couldn't fight in this battle. He turned to Erik. "I am afraid that I must sit this one out. Erik, here." Jon tossed one of his swords to Erik, which Erik caught and then raced after Alexi. Instead of following suit and jumping right in, Erik stayed on the outside and fought the ones with blasters instead of concentrating on the melee types.
