Gods And Ghosts:A War of Heavenly Proportions(IC,read OOC before joining)

[hybirdx]

Rock lifted his arms to cover his face. M<ost of the strikes didn't effect him as much as the shifters thought it would. Rock naturaly could ward off these attacks as if they were nothing, but this was beyond relentless.

'Damn! I... I can't get away! One wrong move and I'll get a good pirceing! But I can't stay like this either!' Rock waited a few more seconds, then swung out his arm knocking back the set of pebbels that came flying to him, ducked the divebomober, then risen and upper cutted it right in the belly, knocking it completely unconsious.

A few more diveboming shifters swriled around and dove for him, yet didn't relize that Rock yanked out his sword and swung it not at them, but the sky itself. "Taste this you damn punks!!!" The wind sword vibrated and hummed, as a swirwling flash strike the shifted, shredding them into dust except for one single pebble. Rock didn't even slow down as he threw out his free hand and an fire shot out hitting the pebble, making it explode and send a wave of fire out, further pitting the sky shifters out of their mystery.

Rock's ears shifter as he noticed that the remaing shifters had gone back underground and prepaired for a new tactic. "Shit. now what?"

 

[DarkThoughts01]

Lucian
Lucian smiled and mastered his impatience with a will as he calmly le Krysta into his study,just off of the exact center of his home.

"ahh here we are,would you like something to drink?"He asked politely as he bored himself a drink from a crystal bottle,siping witha sigh."ahhhh...exquisite"He murmered softly,his eyes carresing Krysta's form.
"yes...very exquisite"he mused softly,then smiles and lounged against a desk,gesturing for her to sit."comfy?good,i want you to be relaxed,Very relaxed"

He said calmly as their eyes locked,feeling his will rise and snap across the air like a living thing,a snake striking as it hit her own will,rapidly striking over and over.

"I hope you will enjoy your stay with me,it will be quite a logn one"was the last thing he said as his will came down on Krysta,assaulting her as her mind tried to resist,fighting back,their minds locked in struggle....

 

[LadyRozes]

Krysta let him surge on with his force tactic. What was surprising was that she realized that he thought she was just matching strength with him. But the fact was she was using just as much strength as he was , just so it would seem like it was a struggle for her to keep up with him. Then slowly, she fiegned that she was getting weaker. She let him think that her power was draining and she let him think that she was under his power completely.

Her eyes crystalized completely, but she made her body began to feel soft and pliant.

Subliminally though she was working her own power over him, the soft voice shew as letting out had more power in it than talk, and the softer her voice menat, the more power was in it, but to lucien it would appear ahtat the softer she talked the weaker she was getting.

"I assure you I canna tell ye how much I am lookin forward to dis... I hope I have as much fun .. as ye promise " She ended in almost a in coherent whisper..

 

[hybirdx]

(Rock

Rock taken deep, yet shallow breaths as he carefully used his sensitive ears to follow the underground shifters' movements that circled around his sides and back. His eyes carefully watched the front of him, even though they were blurred by three different causes. One was that he was tired, another due to massive blood lost to certain parts of his body, and the third was that blood that was dripping from fore head was getting into his eyes.

'Okay,' he thought 'these guys are constanly circling me. They know I'm weakened, and my natural senses are basicly shot at the moment. These guys are waiting for me to move for my sword. As soon as I touch it, they'll fell the vibration probaly sink me to the ground, devouring me.' Rock taken a long deep breath. "They're acting like ground sharks."

Rock moved his hand to his sword, and tapped his fingure on it. One shifter bursted out of the ground, roaring as it flung it self into the air and lunged not at Rock but his swords swinging path. Rock moved his hand past his blade and into a inner pocket, and grabed two small black balls, and swung them into the shifters path. Since the shifters' eyes were now adjusted for ground digging, it didn't noticed until it swallowed, and dove back into the ground. Rock pulled out a cylinder shaped remote and pressed the red button on top. "Three, two..."

The ground rumbled and dirt flew up, as well as dragon chunks and grey blood. "One. Thats two down four to go."

 

[DarkThoughts01]

Lucian

Lucian grinned in triumph.She was his!

He leaned closer as is breath breathed across her soft neck,fangs bared as they lightly brushed the girl's skin."Such a pretty one you are,aren't you?"He murmered in a breath as he stepped closer,fingers tracing her arms gently before stepping away,grinning.

"Of course We cannot have any fun here my pet"he said fondly,a hand stroking the side of her face."First we must take out that bothersome former friend of yours,the fae.Then we can have some fun,can't we?"
He mused,crooning to her like a pet,his cruel,heartless grin spreading across his face.

Shifter Dragons
The Shifter dragons grew smarter after the trick Rock pulled,their forms erupting out of the ground this time,staying just out of range.Before Rock could move towards his sword again one of the shifter dragons,the largest and most intelligent,swooped down and gripped the sword,then lifted and spun around three times,like a discus thrower.On the third spin it released and the sword spun acrosshe cityscape,leaving view as the two other shifters barred Rocks pathwith fangs and spines.

 

[hybirdx]

Rock gasped for air as he felt the fangs dig into his shoulders. "Raaaaaagh! Fucking stone puppet wannabes!" Rock hunched over a bit, his eyes once again glowing with sheer fury. "You think thats gonna stop ME!?!" Rock's body was suddenly engulfed in flames, fire seemed to erupt from his shoulders' wounds, and into the two shifters' mouths.

The two dragons were too stupid and surprized, and they remainded clenched to his shoulders until they erupted into ash. The last shifter didn't wait for Rock to relised that he was left and shifted once again to in with the walls. Waiting for Rock to drop his gaurd.

Yet it never came.

Rock insted reached into the wall and yanked the shfter out by its neck. He ruthlessly brought it close to be face to face, eye to eye. At first the shifter showed no fear, yet after a few, its brain kicked in with a warning. It was face to face with an enraged fox demon.

Rock slammed the shifter into the dirt and sat on its throat. Without any hesitation the shifters bit into his arm and thrashed his head around, trying to make Rock groan in pain and get off of him. But Rock was far too gone in blind rage and thrusted his fist into the shifter's belly, forcing it to lt go, he then grabed the top of its jaw with one hand, and the bottem by the other, and ripped it open. While still holding its wounded jaw, Rock stood up, and with one violent growl, ripped the shifter in half, completed mutilating it.

Rock stood there panting, slowly regaining consiousness of what he had done.

 

[hybirdx]

Zerro's nose led him and Kristoff around the castle and into a small opening, most likely the main entrance to the catsle's dungeon. Zerro calmly kept the frantic Kristoff behind him, not knowing whats was in the underground room. The air was filled with dust and and mold so it blocked his sence of smell, and if there was any lackys around, the sure as hell were being silent.

Zerro stopped as soon as they came to an corner. He carefully looked forward and around. checking if it was clear. There laid three huge black dogs, sharpening their teeth on large bones.

Zerro flinched at the crunghing sounds the dogs made when they bit down. "Geez, theese are obviously are wild hell-pups." One of the young hell-hounds' ears twitched, and the other two began to stand up, growling. "Oh boy..."

All three were now standing, and walking torwards Zerro and Kristoff. Zerro wasn't all that scared, him being the granson of the greatest canine to date. But he could tell the area clouded their noses. "Looks like I may have to fight these little guys. A shame... But their not going to stop me!"

 

[LadyRozes]

Kristoff looked around, nothing was going to stop him form getting to krysta.

Krysta looked into the eyes of Lucien and immidiately she realized that he thought she was completely under his power, and believed her to be evil. Her curved her luscious lips and carressed the side of his face. "Of course my dear, He was always such a pest for me.. are you sure you want me to do it myself... "She rubbed her body against his in a very tantilizing motion. "...or would you rather be there to see it all. I do remember he has this partiality to iron ,.. He doesnt do well around it.. perhaps we shoud make him suffer by barring and trapping him in a cage to watch him slowly fade away.."

 

[hybirdx]

Zerro carefully watched the hounds as they growled and came even closer to him and Kristoff. He knew that running back to the entrance wasn't an option, they were too fast. But he had to find a way to make the hounds relize that he wasn't the enemy.

Zerro snorted out hot air, causing one of the hounds to foolishly consider it a challenge and charge for him. As soon as it jumped into the air Zerro reached out, grabed its head, and shoved it back into the dirt, crushing its skull. The other two charged in and opened their fangs, prepair to clenched their fangs into him at the same time, but Zerro dodged and cut into their throats with a dagger inside one of his gloves, killing them both. Zerro stood over them shaking his head. "I'll bring them back to life when we come back, come on we have work to do."

 

[DarkThoughts01]

Lucian
Lucian smiled and leaned down,his fangs gently pricking Krysta's neck,his power flaring briefly,the air shimmering for a moment,his true power,what he could do,had he not been distracted....

He smiled down at Krysta."why what a good idea"He chuckled as he raised a hand imperiously,iron from the framework of the decorated walls,bookshelves,chairs,broke free and came to them,melting and melding,becoming a gothic styled box of black iron.

"is this adequate?"He asked as the box floated into her hands.

"I will accompany you my dear,to see how you do,though not directly,only if you need help."

He concentrated for a brief moment and his form wavered nad dissapeared.A moment later Krysta felt a berath against her neck and his fangs gently press against her skin."I will be watching you,do not fear anything"He whispered gently into her ear.

 

[LadyRozes]

Krysta walked towards the door in her hand was the black iron box, she knew she was going to have to hurt Kristoff, but htat didnt necessarily mean that she was going to like it, slowly so he wouldnt notice she lined the interior with her healing power, so whatever the effect it would appear to everyone looking that he was fading, except inside, the iron would not effect the inside.

She walked through the balcony door and looked down, just in time to see Zerro and Kristoff heading towards the inside. She used her voice to sarry her lull, and called to kristoff as she had done last time. "Come to me dear friend I call for you do not leave me."

And Just as last Time Kristoff heard her call and flew staraight up towards it without so much as a by your leave to Zerro. He flew straight into Krysta's plan to ensnare him and then looked down as she shut the iron box over him, she knew innitially the iron would effect him, until the healing started to stop it from effecting him, A slight fraction of pain in Krysta's eyes was the only indication that she regreted what she had to do.

She looked down and waved to Zerro as if trapping to Kill the most important thing in the world to her was something she took pride in and would do so all the time.

She walked back inside to look at lucien and she smiled saying, "have you got any outfit that matches your sexy one?" She walked with the box in her hand. From it sounds of anguish could be heard.

 

[hybirdx]

Zerro's head shot up just in time to see Krysta smile and wave at him as she trapped Kristoff inside, almost as if it was nothing to her. "What are you doing?!" Zerro quietly muttered under his breath. At first he wanted to jump on the balcany and drag her back to get some answeres, but he had a feeling that if he did, he would be endangering more than just his life, so he just left to find another way.

Zerro ran down the halls and curves trying to find the main hall and star his search from there. After what felt like hours, he slid to an hault and looked around. "Smells like a kitchen... With some bad smelling food... Yeesh!" Zerro walked forward and opened one of the pots before him "Uuugh! Boiling pasta in blood! Yuck! And it smells like they used parts of human chunks for meat balls... Bleah!" Zerro turned his head away, trying to rid his nose of the vile scent. "Makes me glad Mom forced on that no blood diet when I was young!"

Zerro closed the pot and opened another. Nothing but boiling water, for the moment. Zerro jammed his hands in his pockets, and his eyes suddenly became sharp. "Some one is here..."

 

[hybirdx]

Rock

Rock stood over the dead corpses for a few more seconds before walking away from them, as if they were nothing. The one thing they did do was give him a grand short cut to the pier. Rock stopped right in the front and glared at one building. His fox tail was now swaying in the wind, and the white tip of his fur stiffened.

 

[DarkThoughts01]

Lucian
Lucian grinned and watched as Krysta sauntered back,his eyes sliding up and down her form.Merely snapping his finger,doors on second story of the study opened and dresses and outfits,all in dark black and somber blues flew into the air in a macabre sort of dance,aligning themselves in front of Krysta,awaiting her whim,her choice.
He snapped his hand and the iron cage floated away from Krysta,hangiing from a black metal pole in the corner of the room.

"please choose whatever you want,make yourself at home"he smiled,sliding himself into a thick leather armchair,watching her quietly as a glass of wine drifted over to his hand.

Meanwhile..with Zerro
Out fo the wall specters burst out,nothing mroe then wraithes.About 6 in all they all stopped as one at his presence,clearly shocked before one of them emmited a very real,very human sounding scream of surprise,and dropped a plate it was carring,which shattered.Zerro's well trained body reacted and cut one of the wraiths in half,though of course it only frightened the poor thing,making it yelp and fly around the room in suprise and fear,the other wraiths almost glaring at him and accusing him in perfect,if accented english.

A larger,more stately wraith flaoted forward."Young Man!how dare you frighten poor elsa so!You should be ashamed"The other wraith was calmed by two or three of teh others,as the last wraith floated over and started fixing all the open pots and cooking meals,grumbling and shaking a smokey,ethereal arm at Zerro.

And now for Rock...

The pier was empty,completly abandoned,its only trace of Family occupation being a few dead gargoyle pieces,mostly shattered pieces.

Ivellias
Ivellias frowned.His shifter's should have been back by now,or at least he should be able to hear their destruction.He grew angrly and his mouth suddenly grew huge and he Roared towards where his pets should be.

In the rubble and debris of the shifter dragon's corpses,a rock shifted,and rolled,boucning between stone as the shifter dragons ashes and corpses slowly rolled back togethor and melting,sealing togethor,the ones to injured to regrow themselves grabbing whatever stone or metal around in the rubble,becoming just as healthy.twisting necks around wiht snaps and pops,snapping and giving small roars and yips as they came back to life.They shook themselves like dogs and lifted into the air,heading back towards their Master,who sat bored upon the biggest shifter dragon in his brood.

 

[hybirdx]

Rock

Rock taken a deep breath and trudged torwards the largest building at the pier, whatever was there was what was making him over baringly agrivated.

Rock's ears began twitching from the high pitched screem, forcing the kitsune to turn aroun to see what was bothering them. His eyes widened when he relized that the shifters that he dismantled were now alive, again. "You gotta be shiting me..." Rock ran behind a few barrels and watched them fly into the building beside him. "So thats where they live... I'm guessing their master is in there as well." Rock pulled out his sword and ran torwards the building, prepaired to destroy whoever laid inside.

Zerro

Zerro gave a loud sigh of relife. Now knowing that they were not minions of Lucien. Wraiths were pretty much uncontroable, unlike ghost and banshies. "Forgive me, for a second there, I thought you were minions of the vampier."

The wolf moved out of wraiths way so it could get to the pots, as soon as the wraith opened it though, Zerro swalled air, trying not to let the smell seep in through his nose.

John-Claud (Jc)

Jc walked down the stairs where Eclair was resting. Eclair was sitting on the couch. Though it did look like she just awakened, it also looked like she was still exhausted. "Sleep well?"

Eclair quickly looked up, then gave a puff of relife when she relized it was only Jc. "Y-yes, than you."

'She's still frightened' Jc thought. He sighed and scratched his head. Jc was usauly the type of person who couldn't give a rat's ass if somebody needed help, yet for some reason, he actualy felt sorry for the shadow demon. "So, why do you look so tired?"

Eclair hesitatedf for a second. "W-well, I..."

Jc mentaly sighed. He knew he shouldn't be playing mind games with her. "Never mind, here, I found this." Jc, jammed his hand into his pockets and pulled out the two viles, then handded both of them to her.

"But, these are... How did you get them?"

"I made Adam 'give' them to me. I'm sure one of them are yours, am I right?"

"Y-yes, thank you!"

Eclair quickly opened one of the viles, and absorbed the energy, but she gave a sad look at the other. Jc then relized the other was not only somebodie elses, but most likely some one she was close to. "I'm guessing that one was a friend of yours."

Eclair nodded. "Coro, was a child hood friend of mine. But since he was an birdman they killed him." Eclair sighed. "Like all of the other birdmen, he was killed instantly, they knew he couldn't be broken, with his pride and all."

"My condolences." Jc metal slapped himself 'Idiot! Why did you have to ask her such a thing!' The were-wolf shook his head and smiled. "Come on, we might as well go up stairs and wait for the others."

 

[LadyRozes]

Krysta picked out a very beautiful black dress the fabric was considered to be some sort of silky satin that shined in the light. The nick line was scooped down and it hugged every curve of Krysta's body.

INternally KRysta was scared. She had no idea how she was going to get out of this situation, she just knew that had distroy him. What would make a bad guy die. IF you add more violence they tend to feed off that, but if you confuse them and try to distract them then maybe they will forget what they want. She knew her small inside suggestion she had planted was already working. He was slowly being more and more wrapped up into her, but once she had him completely engrossed in her, she really had no idea what to do after that.

She gave him a very seductive smile and then asked putting a little more of that tiny sugestion into her voice, "so what do you think? Will I do?" She glided over to him, making her appear very alluring, and attractive. Something he just had to have.

 

[DarkThoughts01]

OOC-Hy read back for Rock,none of the shifter dragons or Ivellias are at the pier,their downtown on top of a tall building.))


Lucian
Lucian grinned and his eyes eagerly devoured Krysta's form as her slid his arm around ehr waist lightly."Yes you will Definatly Do"He smiled as they lifted into teh air,passing over a balcony,the doors flinging open,revealing a spacious,somberly decorated bedroom,his fangfs trickling over her neck teasingly.

Wraiths

The Wraith cook moved over its meal,grumbling still.

The hysterical one had calmed down and quickly drifted into a corner,its blurry form moving the dishes and cleaning them from a large tub-sized sink.

" I would prefer the term "Servants",instead of Minions thank you Sir"The largest of teh group said,its form,even in death and shapeless,somehow stiff and formal,like an old butler.
"Now now!no need to use the sword again,it wont work on us,and we're not a threat anyway young Sir.We are Lord Lucian's loyal servants,and we were once when we lived.You see,The Lord was once not so bad,i mean,he was a vampire,but not so bad,I think it is the power he has been given in The Family."

The more excitable one shivered at the mention of The Family,dropping a dish then proclaimng"oh..h-how clumsy of me"and hurriedly moved to clean it up.

The Wraith noticed Zerro holding his nose and said."Do not worry Sir,the food there is not for his Lordship,it is for the Dogs and some of the more..unsavory servants of the castle.

 

[hybirdx]

Zerro gave a long sigh and locked sword in its holder. "Look, I need to know where your 'Lordship' Is. I have an personal appoinment with him. Do you know where he is?"

 

[DarkThoughts01]

The wraith seemed to think for a moment.

"His Lordship is in his private chambers and does not wish to be disturbed,so you will have to wait."

 

[LadyRozes]

Krysta let him take the lead,she had no idea what she was going to do .. She knew she never planned on going through with it entirely .. and now that she was scared witless, she couldnt think of what to do .. acept play along until she could think of something .. which she hoped was sooner than later.

She leaned her head back as he grazed her neck, flasheds of fear slivered through her body which lucien assumed that it was eagerness that made her shudder so.

she ran her hand through his hair and continued to tease Lucien, all the while she was hoping that Kristoff was alright..

 

[DarkThoughts01]

Lucian

Lucian felt his own body give a slight shudder,a long lsot feeeling flitting into his body as he gently bit down,his fangs just piercing the skin,a rush of fluid seeping into his hollow fangs,a wash of pleasure wrapping around Krysta as the bite lowers her defenses,for a second succeeding in taking her over as he bites down further,hungry for her.
hungry...

He snapped his eyes open and puleld his mouth off,licking the small bite marks gently,the blood tingling wonderously in his mouth as he kissed up to her ear,feeling her body shudder and breathe a bit faster,still affected by the bite as he grins......

 

[hybirdx]

Jc led Eclair out of the room and into the kitchen for moment until he was able to sucessfully lock the hiden entrance, for safety precautions. He then led her to the main room where Mia sat on a stool, impatiently tapping her foot.

"Whats with you?"

"Its been two hours since they had left."

"Who? Krysta, Kristoff, and Rock?" Jc looked at the clock, just as he did so, it struck 1:00 AM. "Huh, so it has been. What are you so worried about anyways?"

Mia shook her head and sighed. "Call it feline intuition, but I'm starting to get the feeling they got them-selfs into trouble. I mean, Krysta is pretty responsible, when she isn't depressed and hell bent on revenge, and so is Kristoff, when he's sobber. But I'm more worried about Rock, he's been acting like a mad dog lately."

Jc scratched his head. 'No kidding... He has been acting really weird lately... I wonder if... No, can't be.'

 

[LadyRozes]

fighting to gain control of her sense again she had to force herself to play the part. letting out what she hoped was a ver sensual moan she slipped out of the way .. giving him the slip and twisted to face him. She forced herself to appear as though she were making mischief.

"Dont you want to chase your prize.. I dunno Im in the mood to play..." as she slipped past him again thinking frantically about how to get him to chase her to the room so she could knock over the box and let Kristoff out.

Outside in sky began to change shades and began to get smokey. dark clouds begin to roll in and the wind slowly picked up.

 

[DarkThoughts01]

Lucian

Lucian gave a loud,suprisingly pleasant sounding laugh.His face crease dinto one of puzzlement,quickly replaced by his normal cold smile,though the illusion still played on his face,a certain warmth that was not there a moment ago.

"ah lovely one,will you tease me?"he joked,following her playfully as she moved along the length of the room,mockingly chasing her,occasionally catching her to give her another soft bite or carress,his deep chuckle filling the somber room.

 

[hybirdx]

(Zerro

Zerro's ears suddenly pricked and he sharply turned his head. 'Laughter...?' Zerro looked at the wraiths, who all seemed way too ocupied to talk with him, so he just left and followed the annoying laughter.

---------
(Rock)
---------

Rock moved into the room and snuck around, trying to see if there was a spot he could hide so the shifters didn't notice him. He sat behind a broken crate and impatiently waited for a few minutes before standing up, and looking out the window trying to figure out what was keeping them.

"What the fuck...?" Rock watched as the shifters were now heading a new direction. It was a seconds over the water, (for them, at least) wich basicly was a major short cut to down town. So either they knew he was following them, 'Highly unlikely.' Or, somebody was calling them back and they wern't going to take the long way back.

"Shit!"
