Paris, France

[InsanePoisson]

The City Once Filled With Love

Now left as a desolate wasteland. But in comparison, it is far better off then most other areas. It has the most buildings intact and still has the Eiffel tower standing, though weakened. The tower creaks loudly when strong gusts blow through the city, sounding as if it was crying out to the people that live there. The live that once filled this area no longer is in the air, it has been replaced with sorrow and pain. People gathering here for the abundant refuge, this was the reason for the Guardians taking the city. Knowing that refugees meant criminals and they could be sure to keep this city safe in comparison to others.

The main cause for the survival of this city was the French themselves. Their culture was know for protecting and treasuring important places that has historic importance, thus the reason why majority of the buildings were refurbished old style structures. This was one of the most well protected and reconstructed cities during the war just due to its historical importance. But now all that is forgotten, it is simply a place for the people to hide and live, in safety.

Tsako walked among and emptier part of Paris thinking to herself among the broken buildings. She lifted up into the sky and placed herself on a still standing rooftop. Looking down upon the once called "City of Love" she sighed heavily.

John suddenly appeared inside of the fallen city, coming forth from the shadows. He was only a short distance from the central tower. It was his city, he enjoyed it and was helping to rebuild the city. Allowing people to come refuge in the city and having Guardians free range through the city as sort of militia to ensure peace.

He began to walk, his gaze moving from side to side to look at the buildings that were broken and the people that lived in them. Some up in the early day to work on rebuilding some of the broken buildings. It was a slow process but he was planning on having this to be one of the first rebuilt cities before moving onto others. As such he personally took control of the city to ensure absolute peace and no attacks on the people. Any attacks were swiftly taken care of and halted.

"Thanks for the heads up," Kuxbya nodded to a stranger he was sitting with at a cafe. There was something about cafes that just drawed in information. As well as people who had information to give. He stood, remembering that Tsako was here in the city as well. She might want the information he had to offer. If push came to shove, he would go it alone.

As he walked on, he saw John, leader of the Guardians. Each leader was well known, information was tough to hide even in the state of chaos this world was in. John was helping restore peace by allowing refugees to stay here. He was a good person. There was no doubt about it.

He began to think about the current structure of the city. Blind spots, weak points, and escape routes. He didn't plan on attacking the place. Thinking about these things was natural to him.

He pulled up his jacket, feeling a little chilly. He could see the Zealot from the sky, it was sorta her thing. He walked towards a building and walked behind it, continuing towards Tsako using the alleyways.  

[Aranael Aries]

Tsako noticed Kuxbya making his way toward her. She turned her face back to the sky closing her eyes. The look on his face was all business, which meant her lounging would have to stop. She soaked up the sun, the backs of her eyelids lighting up a bright red. She remembered the old story of Icarus coming too close to the sun. "Am I Icarus? Or will I make it to the sun one day?" She thought in her last moments alone.

"Oy," Kuxbya called out to Tsako. "I'm sure the city beautiful up there, but I need to talk to you."

Drake glided over Paris, just above the height of the majority of the remaining buildings. people milled about the streets, doing their daily business in peace, a peace which would not have been possible were it not for the efforts of the Guardians to protect the city. Many a battle had fought to create the peace within this city, and many had been won to maintain it. They always had to stay on alert, just in case another battle for it began, but still the peace remained. Even so, much of the world remained in chaos and ruins, persisting with the unintentional help of the wars between awakened, ever since the nuclear war fifty years ago, much longer than the peace had.

Many a long year had passed since that war, and much had changed, but much remained the same as well. Not that Drake would remember anything from then, having been born long after the fact. However, he did remember the destruction created by the later awakened war, and was reminded of it every day, as he was one of those who strove to stop it, and repair this damaged world. Suddenly realizing how lost in thought he had become, Drake alighted onto a flat rooftop, his feet hitting the railing heavily, before he hopped off it, onto the rooftop itself. Something was making him unnerved, but he was unsure what, and kept careful watch over the city from his vantage point.

 

[Aranael Aries]

Not looking back at Kuxbya, Tsako fell backwards off the rooftop. Just before hitting the ground on her back she twisted and landed on her feet. She looked at him then, solemnly. "What is it?" She was a pretty serious person most of the time now, mainly because there wasn't that much to be light hearted about anymore.

John walked around the city casually. He was watching those people in the city, watching as they worked and insured there was no trouble here. He could tell there were others here that typically weren't here but he didn't mind, so long as people didn't cause trouble he didn't care who came here. He didn't outlaw any but those that tried to hinder the efforts to rebuild and often, those people simply ended up dead.

A man runs up to John, moving quickly. The man suddenly stops in front of him, grasping John's right shoulder with his left hand. "What is it?" He asked the man, he was slightly concerned, he recognized the man that stood before him. He was a messenger for the Guardians, given the task because of his abilities that allow him to easily move from place to place without trouble. "Wraith's...they've been seen in the Amazon...heading towards the village!" He knew instantly what village the man was speaking of. There were few Guardian allied villages in the Amazon and only one that was worth going after. Without wasting a moment John vanished from the city, rapidly engulfed by the shadows.

Letum appeared on the outter edge of the city with Snowpaya. His eyes seemed ot be frantically scanning the area before looking up towards the tower. "Soon....it will all be ours." He said as a demented grin spread across his face, eager to take the city and claim it as his own. This action, this very plan, it was going ot make it clear to John and all those humans in the world, the Wraiths, all of them, are a threat. A force to be feared. A group, who can do unimaginable things and people who are ruthless and violent.

 

[Snowpaya]

Snowpaya let out his breath very slowly after arriving. He'd never traveled through the earth before, yet he knew it was probably going to be the only way he could get back to the Wraith's main base now. "What do you need me to do?" he asked passively. "John probably won't be gone for long." His eyes swept over the parts of the city that he could see. Although he'd never been to Paris before, he certainly figured that it didn't look like this before the war.  

[Tark Draco]

Letum looked back at Snowpaya. "Just follow and stay close...he has guards throughout the city, so we need to act quickly, that's why we're at the edge." He said as he began to walk closer towards the city. "You're right, he won't stay away long but we don't need long if we can move quickly." He spoke as he walked, his eyes now locked on the tower, that was there destination, the giant steel beast at the center of the city. All his plans relied on absolute success and flawless execution to take control, he just hoped those in the amazon did not forget their goals.
