Rest in Peace (4) : While making your way through Destiny City, you wind up taking a path you’ve never taken before. Maybe you’re following directions, maybe you got lost, maybe you were just looking for a shortcut—things were going well, until you wind up needing to pass through a graveyard. It seems normal enough—until you pass by a grave and get a powerful chill down your spine. When you stop and look at it, you see the gravestone has your name; beneath it, your birthday and today’s date. If you leave and return, the gravestone remains, but the name and dates look like they’ve been clawed off.Sekhmet was powered up today, doing a little reconnaissance of his own on this supposedly creepy season of Earth, and what a surprise - he had lost his way. He now stood in a place surrounded by a fence, and that held large mounds of dirt and grass, and headed by carved stone. As the carved writing was in the language of the Humans, he could not read it. On some there were skulls, on some; there was some kind of cross, on others, a winged human blowing a trumpet or doing something else. In his Sekmite garb (like Ancient Egyptian) and his bald head and gold skin, he stood out like a sore finger. "I definitely have the feel that I should not be here." He murmured, more to himself than anyone else. "And yet, something is terribly amiss."

Oia felt a chill run down her spine as she moved by the graveyard, which was odd she wasn't afraid of ghosts and ghouls, she was more afraid of giant rats at this point after her strange game board adventure. She heard someone talking so she turned in that direction to see what was going on. They might be in trouble after all and it was her duty to help the people of Destiny city in the name of the cosmos. She looked at the guy standing there and frowned curiously. "Are you alright?" She asked. She had her baton in her off hand as she waited for an answer.

Sekhmet noticed the Page across the way. "Greetings, Page of Cosmos. I am still rather new on Earth, thought yes, a Senshi of Order - some call me a Deep Space Senshi. I've been attempting to find my own way around lately. Unfortunately, I seem to have gotten lost for the hundredth time. And although I really don't know what this place is .. something seems wrong and out of place. And I don't think it's just me....."

Oia blinked and blinked again she was super confused by this conversation already. "Umm well I don't know how you guessed all that and I don't know what a deep space senshi is, I'm pretty new to this and haven't heard about your kind." She paused and then said "I'm Oia, don't worry about being lost I'm sure we can find the right way and yea this city is a weird place sometimes it happens all the time, watch out for dice doesn't lead to anything fun." She looked at the graves and saw one that caught her eye and she went toward it.

MiddyGlow Sekhmet can't read English yet. His human name if you want to use it is Dant Bidemen, or if you want to, his original name and now private name is Ausar Siang. Sekhmet sighed. "Let's just say, that I was alone for a long time. Thank you." He frowned. "What is this place?"

Oia raised her eyebrow at the guy and then shrugged it really wasn't an answer at all but whatever that was their business. "Ok.." She drawled and then turned to the graveyard. "This is a graveyard, it's a place where people burry bodies so they can come and visit the bodies and remember the people they lost, kinda like a shrine or temple sorta thing." She wasn't sure how to better explain the place to this guy and she wasn't really sure why she had to explain this to them anyway. "See they put the names and dates on the stones to remember people, I guess everyone wants to be remembered and not forgotten right?"

"Ah I see. I guess I should explain some more - though I thought it might be more obvious due to my gold reptilian skin. As a Deep Space Senshi, I am, one not exactly Human, and as such have different customs. Two, well... after the Silver Millennium fell, my World lived on - for a time. A Chaos.... thing came and devoured most living things and drained the energy of my World... my World ... somehow ... kept me alive and young to fight it... but I've been alone for about oh I think 500 years. My memory is no longer what it used to be. My World was barely hanging on, and there was a band of energy, and I was able to teleport here to strengthen and get help."

Oia laughed "It's what we call the Halloween season and some senshi already look kinda strange the closer to their home world they are connected. But Halloween is a time people dress up and pretend to be something else so your appearance didn't even cross my mind as odd." She listened to his story "Wow that is a lot to deal with, but I'm glad you are here on earth and not alone anymore, that must have really sucked." She went towards one of the gravestones and looked at the writing and read her own name. She rolled her eyes "See this is what this city does it messes with your head, you have to watch out for all the tricks this city has to offer especially during any holiday season." She laughed and said "Want to go get some pumpkin spice lattes? They are pretty good." She wasn't about to let this silly trick freak her out she knew better than to let this city get to her by now.

MiddyGlow Would you mind? I would like for the next gravestone to read "Ausar Siang, Born 1003, Died Today"? Thank you "Ah yeah yes, one of my Human friends was telling that. So, what does that gravestone say ... exactly...? See..." He burned with embarrassment. "I have somehow lost the ability to read my people's writing and have yet to learn to read English..." He felt strange asking her, but he needed to know what the next one said - he didn't know why. "Um, what does the next one say? I don't know why, but I have the need to know" "Thank you and yes, Pumpkin Lattes would be nice, and in a minute, I can change in something, more appropriate...."

Oia read off the gravestone, she smiled at him agreeing to coffee with her she thought it would be fun. She figured this weird stone was for him and she hoped he wouldn't be freaked out by the stupid illusion. She waited to see how he would react.

There was a strange look in his eyes. "I don't know how they pulled that one off. That name hasn't been used in 500 years. Very few people in the land of the living know that name, and they are not prone to practical jokes." He shook it off. "Let me power down and assume my Human Glamour- that will attract a lot less attention in public." Soon he seemed to be a 19-year-old Human, with Egyptian Roots, somewhat tall, with soft jade eyes, and luxurious black hair to his shoulders. He wore a white t-shirt, with blue jeans and black sneakers. His blue socks were on his ears. "Excuse me, little glitch from my earlier days." he muttered. Suddenly, his socks were right where they were supposed to be.

Oia nodded and she powered down as well it was a big leap of trust but it was one she decided to go with even though it was the Halloween season and it was likely that her knight outfit wouldn't draw attention anyway. "I'm Hendonie, but please call me Henny." She paused and looked at the grave stone and said "I would imagine it takes thoughts from your head to make the illusion." She had her long black hair but with purple tips instead of the rainbow, she sported as a knight. She was dressed in a purple sweater and jeans and the rest of her outfit was where it should be. "Don't worry about it let's go get that drink."

Dant smiled, "I go by Danten Bidemen here. Many call me Dant." He looked back at that gravestone one last time and frowned. Then he nodded and followed her, smiling once more.

Sailor Hawk Dant smiled, "I go by Danten Bidemen here. Many call me Dant." He looked back at that gravestone one last time and frowned. Then he nodded and followed her, smiling once more. (Fin)
