I have a big chunk of text to type involving Armin. I can't remember if he and Jerry were in the middle of a conversation, but as soon as he's free, I'll be sending him out to do something.
(can I just bring back the fact that last time I said that Ruscar is the only doggo not allowed in the doggo squad because that's beautiful)
@Draco Keenan watches her exit the room, then decided to jump down and follow her, trotting to catch up. "Eh, might as well see all the options, right?" Toby goes for the right with his paw, then his head snaps in the other direction to try to stop the fish, his mouth opening so quickly it makes a quiet "gack" noise. (my cat does that a lot so that's what I'm basing that off-)
'Oh...' said Sheldon quietly. Sensing that he might not be able to sleep for a while, he propped himself up against the wooden headboard and gazed at her through his floppy red hair. 'Anything interesting?' he ventured. 'If I had a dream, I think I'd just see everything that's happened lately...'
After the discussion about Riverside, Armin got an idea. Ivy was on the living-room couch, staring into space, so he walked past her and let himself out the house, getting blasted by a chill night breeze. There was a faint hint of light on the eastern horizon, implying that dawn would come in only an hour or two.
Limping slightly, the vampire headed off towards the city, taking a shortcut through the woods.
If he hadn't been listening alertly for signs of enemies, he never would have noticed the dragon.
She was standing among the trees, her blue-scaled body surprisingly well-concealed. And she was grinning a familiar grin, obviously pleased to have caught Armin off-guard.
Slowly, the vampire drew his sword and turned to face her. 'Ana. Wasn't expecting to see you here. I thought you'd be back in the city, licking Sargon's boots.'
She scowled. 'I'm on break,' she said defensively. 'I didn't have anything to do, so I decided to come and look for you. You have a hideout somewhere in these woods, don't you? Where is it?'
'Wouldn't you like to know?' Armin muttered, tightening his grip on his sword. He'd have no chance of beating her if she attacked, so he tried to back off. 'Listen, it's nice seeing you again, but I have things to do. Sorry I can't stick around.'
{Vitis snapped out of a hundred mile stare.}"Sorry, birdo, I was just...That. That out there, with the mask and the blade and moving in ways it shouldn't be able to.......I suppose it shook me up, 'cause I'm usually the big scary monster and....I think we've just run into an even bigger monster."
@Draco "Probably. With a bunch of kids in here they'd have all manners of things in the cupboards." Toby looks just as confused, looking about as if it had come from elsewhere. (They were playing football with the fisch and Jed did a spooky feign move)
Crowley leaned back in the chair, folding his arms and rolling his eyes. 'Oh, come on. You weren't even transformed. If you were, you would've kicked his ass, easy. I got a smell of that guy, and he's just a human, no matter what fancy tricks he can do.'
"I remember seeing a lot of werewolves and vampires," Tochi began. "They were... uhm... raining from the sky. Then you appeared and became a bigger werewolf, and you tried to protect me." she smiled. "I think you did a pretty good job."
{After the lights went out, the skirmish was over before one could even blink. The light went out, the sound of a swishing blade, Dianne's pained cry, and that was it. She tried to raise draugrs, but she only had three spare souls left. All the rest were invested in the destruction of Sargon's food supplies, an op that was scheduled to take place that night. Magnus, being a dominant soul, took command in place of his master. He had been sent to the body of a staked vampire, and the other two were in the bodies of hefty werewolves. They circled around their fallen master, watching for any more attacks.} Illusionist:"Oh, you don't need to do that, your Highness, I've already gotten what I want. Better hurry back to the priestess before she bleeds to death, Magnus. You're on the clock." {Cursing to himself, Magnus had to make a decision. Pursue the assailant, or save his master.}
'Now hold on just a minute,' said Ana. She took a step towards him, and Armin tensed, preparing to run or fight her off. 'I have something to say to you. You are the worst kind of scum for leaving Lord Sargon like that. You abandoned him at a crucial moment and betrayed him to our enemies! I hate you, and if he ever orders you dead, I'll be the first to volunteer!'
Armin frowned. 'I already know you're head-over-heels in love with Sargon. Did you have anything else to say?'
'You TRAITOR! I might not be allowed to kill you, but I can still give you a reminder of why I'm better than you.' She drew in a deep breath, and invisible magic crackled around her like a thunderstorm. Her green eyes flashed. 'Excruciate!'
Armin screamed as incomparable pain ripped through him, throwing him against a nearby tree. It disappeared after just three seconds, leaving him slumped and gasping against the tree trunk.
Ana paced forwards until she was close enough to talk to him without raising her voice.
Sheldon's eyes widened. 'W-werewolves and vampires RAINING FROM THE SKY?' he stammered. 'UM, that's the most horrifying thing I've ever heard.' He was silent for a moment. 'I'm... glad I was in that dream, though.'
"Yep. I'm glad they don't really rain from the sky," Tochi glanced at the window, but the dark red curtains blocked her view of the outside world. "Have you had any dreams lately, Sheld?" she asked thoughfully.
His brow creased as he tried to remember something interesting enough to bother telling her about.
'Well... I haven't been sleeping much lately because of... everything. But before I woke up earlier, I had a quite strange dream. There was a - a lady who looked like a witch, and she was smiling in a really creepy way, and then she said something, but I don't remember what it was. And then... I woke up,' he finished blandly. 'But I knew she wasn't a nice person.'
{Vitis nods slowly.}"Yeah, yeah. You're probably right. I guess next time we'll--" {He was cut off by someone bursting through the temple doors. It was a vampire and two werewolves, only they were dead. The vampire had a stake through his heart and all of them were blood soaked. In the arms of the vampire was Dianne, still alive, but in a similar state.}"Pythia! We need some help!" {Pythia looked up and stared, at a loss for words at what she was seeing.}
Crowley's head shot up at the sound of the door crashing open. 'Woah! Someone's been in a fight!' Then he suddenly recognised Dianne. 'Hey, wait a minute! She's the weirdo who tried to kill me once!' He moved as if to get out of his chair and finish Dianne off.
'I-I don't THINK I've ever seen her before,' said Sheldon uncertainly. He didn't want to consider the possibility that it was a vision. Those kinds of things really creeped him out. 'Y-you don't suppose YOUR dream was a - a vision too?'
Looming high above Armin, Ana spoke up, her voice barely louder than a whisper. 'I'll give you today. Next time I see Lord Sargon, I'm going to ask him if I can kill you. I'll get permission. And then you'll be dead, traitor.'
'Are you going to ask to sleep with him, too?' Armin gasped.
That had the desired effect. Letting out a scream of rage, Ana turned and stormed away. 'I'll get you in the end!' she yelled. Then, in a lightning movement, she spread her wings and leapt into the air, quickly disappearing behind the thick tree branches.
Groaning quietly, Armin pulled himself to his feet, using his sword as a crutch. 'Well, that could have gone better,' he mumbled to himself.
Once he felt like he could walk again, he turned in the direction of the city. He still needed to do what he came out here for.
{At Crowley's aggressive approach, the two werewolves sprang between him and Dianne, growling and snarling. The vampire shot Crowley a warning glare. Vitis gets up as well and puts up a hand up towards Crowley while facing the wolves.} Magnus" Why are you just sitting there?! Help me!" {Pythia snaps out of it and springs to her feet.}"R-right! Take her into that room!"{Pythia points to a room and runs to get her supplies. The vampire doesn't hesitate to take Dianne the the room.} Vitis:"Whoa, easy there buddy. Think before you act here. Look at their eyes!" {Sure enough, the eyes of the werewolves and vampire are glowing, red, not the usual blue.} Vitis:"Something's up. Those zombie things don't usually look like this!"
Sheldon nodded, still looking worried. 'You know,' he said abruptly, 'I've never actually TRIED to... turn into a werewolf before. The last time, when we were in the woods, it just... happened.' He stared into the distance. 'What if someday we're in danger and I can't do it to save y - I mean, us?'
@Draco "Probably my nan's. She'd do this big pot of vegetables and bacon and slow cook it throughout the day. It was bloody brilliant." He grins a little. It takes him a moment to realise so he swipes his paw towards it, but he just misses it and ends up knocking it into the box himself.
( @Radiant The only pure evil character (aside from DB, the embodiment of actual evil))
Crowley halted, squinting at the werewolves. '...Huh, that's true,' he said after a moment. 'They don't look like the other zombie things I've seen around the place.' His gaze went to Dianne as she was carried away. 'I wonder if she's gonna die?'
After making his way somewhat painfully into the city walls, Armin immediately began to look for a car. He'd figured there was no point in anyone walking all the way to Riverside when they could drive instead.
Most of the cars he came across had been abandoned by their human owners, who were either dead or had fled the city on their own two feet. It took him a while to find a vehicle that still had the key inside, and the one he found wasn't very impressive; a small Nissan Micra. He opened the door and climbed inside, looking at the array of controls. After a couple of bad starts, he succeeded in getting the car moving, and quickly set off back towards his hideout.
{Vitis didn't answer right away.}"Did you get a good look at her? I did. She's cut pretty deep in a lot of places. Too deep, in fact. I think we know who did that."
{Pythia, with her box of supplies, enters the room and closes the doors behind her.}
'Oooh... it was that freak in the mask!' Crowley said, his eyes lighting up with sudden understanding. 'Huh, I guess that means I have competition. Cuz if HE wants to kill her, and I also want to kill her...' He trailed off and stared thoughtfully in the direction Dianne had been taken.
Sheldon wasn't sure how sensible an idea that was, seeing as they could be attacked by anything if they set foot outside, but he liked spending time with her too much to refuse. 'S-sure. That might be good.'
Sheldon smiled back, albeit a little tremulously. 'Uhm, should we maybe sleep? It's nearly sunrise already...' He glanced towards the window, which was showing the faintest hint of a pale glow through the curtains.
@Draco "Yeah! It's really good! Though, I will say that tomato soup is pretty good too." Upon reaching the kitchen, Keenan stands on his hind legs and places his front paws on the counter, looking around for a moment before shifting into his human form. "Hah, hands would help, wouldn't they?" Toby grumbles a little, but only playfully. He trots out of the way, tail wagging a little.
{Vitis nodded with a smirk on his face.}"That's right. I think that mask guy's just as unhinged as you, if not more. Question is, what are you going to do about it?"
'Uhhh...' Crowley considered it, at least as much as he was capable of 'considering' anything. 'I dunno. Maybe I'll hunt down the freak guy and kill him while his back is turned. Or maybe I'll just kill the creepy woman before he does.' He didn't seem to be able to remember Dianne's name no matter how often he heard it. 'But I really want to kill the mask guy. Are you gonna help me, or are you too chicken?'
Sheldon flopped down next to her, tugging the bedcovers almost over his head. 'Goodnight,' he said softly, as he lay there staring at the dimly lit window.
Crowley grinned. 'Sure. You help me, I'll help you... when I feel like it.' He thought for a second. 'You know, I bet that guy would be easier to kill in broad daylight. He'd be easier to see, at least.'
'We have a car now,' said Armin, by way of explanation. He limped over to the couch and leaned against the back of it, startling Ivy, who gave him a slight scowl. 'I figured we needed a quicker way to get around, and if we're going to Riverside...'
Armin pulled a face of mock insult. 'I didn't let anyone follow me. I'm not an idiot. And if it makes you feel better, Sargon's right hand, Anastasia, already knows we live somewhere in these woods. She doesn't know the exact location, but if she really wanted to find it, I'm betting she'd be able to.'
He moved to sit down on the couch, stretching out his injured leg to place it on a footstool.
Crowley adjusted his scarf. 'Sure, why not?' He glanced briefly at the hand the Illusionist had stabbed a knife through earlier, then shrugged and decided it didn't matter. 'As soon as it's light, we'll go and look for him.'
@Draco He peers into the cupboard Thorn opened to see what was in it, then opens the ones in front of him. In one was stacks of bowls and plates, and in the other was various tins of assorted foods, mostly vegetables. "Huh...Not a lot in here."
@Aggron (Got an idea for some brink kids--) A trio of shifters pace down an alleyway, laughing heartily about something. On the right was a fox, chuckling quietly. On the left was a large wolf, albeit not the size of a werewolf, who seemed to be leading the conversation. In the middle as a tigress who seemed uninterested, but smiles a little. "Hey, hey, did you see how Ryker got called out at that gathering thing? Looks like Sargon wanted a new lapdog!" The fox and the wolf burst out laughing. "Or maybe he wants find Brink and make 'im into a lil pet kitty!" "C'mon boys, don't be so mean to the big an' mighty Count. He's way better than Brink." "Treats us better too!" "Yeah, we actually get what we want!" "Oh yeah? An' what's that?" "Killin' stupid old humans!" "Yeah! Brink never let us do that!" "Sometimes he did." "Not enough though!"
'She's a witch/dragonshifter... hybrid?' said Armin. 'Anyway, she's Sargon's most trusted and powerful minion. She can use magic, which might be a problem for us. I never mentioned her until now because I didn't think she'd cause us any trouble, not directly at least.' He shrugged thoughtfully. 'I should have guessed she'd have it in for me for deserting Sargon.'
'Weeell, let's see...' Armin leaned back on the couch. 'She can use her magic in a lot of different ways, for small things like lighting a fire or creating a wind. But she also has four 'main' spells, and from what I remember, she's very proud of them.' He raised a hand with one finger held up. 'Number one: she can summon and control ghosts. They're non-solid spirits that can interact with physical objects but can't directly hurt you. She pulls them from nearby corpses, so it doesn't work if there aren't any.'
He put up a second finger. 'Number two, she can make herself invisible. It only works for as long as she stays still.' He raised a third finger. 'Three, she can call up a magical shield that will deflect most things. It wears down a bit more with each blow it takes.'
He gave a grim smile. 'Number four, she can hit you with a blast of magic that puts you in excruciating pain. It usually only lasts a few seconds, and doesn't work on everybody. So there's that.'
{The Illusionist just laughs.}"Sure, he didn't mind how you spoke about him, but he does take the matter of allegiance very seriously. " {From in front a them, comes rolling a small orb. Once it gets close, it explodes into a cloud of toxic gas.} "I'm sure you can guess why I'm here."
( @Radiant I enjoy novels. XD) {Jerry nods.}"Hm, that all? She doesn't sound too hard to kill. Once we can call in the calvary, we'll set a trap for her and put her down. Anything else we should know."
(Hey, I think I'm gonna head off for now. But we can continue RPing through the week like we discussed, if you like. I'll write replies when I check back in the morning.)
Armin shot him an exasperated look. 'I mean she's completely in love with Sargon. She thinks she's subtle about it, but if you ever hear her talk about him, you'll notice instantly. She clearly wants to sleep with him but won't admit it.'
@Aggron The tigress, seeming to be the smartest of the three, leaps over the wolf as the orb explodes and heads down a tiny alley leading off, turning around a short while down to see what effect it had. The fox and the wolf where coughing and stumbling around, clearly disorientated.
Armin looked amused by Jerry's reaction. 'Well, according to rumours he's nearly 500 years old,' he replied. 'And Anastasia herself is at least 250. If it makes it seem less disgusting, Sargon doesn't like her - in that way - whatsoever. He hardly even looks at her.'
{Jerry just shakes his head.}"Well, at least one of them has some sense. I can't help but wonder if we could use this information against them. Do you know if Anastasia keeps a diary?"
{The fox and wolf quickly succumb to the toxic gas. As the gas envelopes the the shifters, the sound of a blade slicing through their flesh is heard. Once the gas clears, it reveals the brutally dismembered bodies of the tigress' friends. }
'Hmm, that seems like her kind of thing,' said Armin. 'But what are you going to suggest, that we steal it? It's not like we can just walk into Sargon's place.'
{Jerry smiles.}"Not us. We'll use //our// dragon/witch. She could get it easy, I guarantee it. All we'd have to do is get Anastasia away from the tower so she won't sense the draugr. I take it Anastasia's spirit sensitive?"
'Yeah. She can tell when anything like ghosts or spirits are nearby. That's what helps her find corpses to use.' Armin considered for a moment. 'How are you going to lure Ana away from the place?'
Ivy snickered. 'This is the stupidest plan I've ever heard of. ''Sneak into Sargon's tower and steal his assistant's secret diary''.'
{Jerry turned to Ivy with an unamused look.}"Quite clearly, Ivy, you've never heard of the concept of black mail. Along with the fact that Anastasia is Sargon's right hand and could have included some very useful information into that diary, if Anastasia is as 'in to' Sargon as Armin is describing, she's probably written about it, and wouldn't want that information to become public."
'Well, it seems like she doesn't bother to hide that she likes him,' said Ivy, folding her arms irritably. 'I'll bet lots of people already know. But maybe there are other things in the diary - IF she has a diary - that might be useful...'
@Aggron She gasps softly, then growls deeply, looking around for the source of her friends' deaths. "Show yourself coward! Come out and fight me like a man!" The orange of her pelt glows softly before bursting into flame, the slight darkening of her eyes eluding that the power is from her contract with Dark Brink.
{The Illusionist laughs in the darkness.}"I'm the coward? It was you freaks that slaughtered hundreds of defenseless innocents. Here, you want me?"{The Illusionist steps into the light of a street lamp.}"Have at me, if you dare."
'Good idea,' said Armin. 'So, we'll be leaving around early morning?' He threw a glance towards the window. 'It's not far off dawn already. You two should go and sleep.'
{Jerry moves for the stairs.}Alright. Goodnight y'all. Oh yeah, one more thing. On the way there //and// back, I call shotgun." (//Ain't no way I'm riding on the roof!//)
@Aggron The tigress roars, swiping a claw in the air and sending a fireball flying towards the masked human. "At least Sargon gives us what we wanted! That charlatan Brink did nothing for us despite all the work we did for him!"
{The Illusionist tilts his head, allowing the fireball to pass him unharmed. He then draws his blade and starts moving towards the tigress.}"Brink rewards patience and dilligence, two qualities you deserters clearly lacked."
'Hey! I'm not riding on the roof either!' protested Ivy, leaping to her feet.
'It's OK,' said Armin, letting out a huge yawn as he stood up and limped his way towards the stairs. 'You can go in the glove compartment. Or the trunk.'
He went upstairs to his room and shut the door on her screeching exclamation.
@Aggron She looks in confusion at her fireball missing his head, then glares at him. "Oh yeah? He don't like fancy theatrics either. He just wants the job done." With that, she shifts into her human form - a young, scruffy teen with bright orange hair - and grins as her hands set on fire. "Just like Count Sargon. An' I'm pretty sure he'd want a human as fighty as you offa this planet!" He hurls another two fireballs at him, one a little slower than the other in an attempt to catch him off guard with the first and hit him with the second.
{The Illusionist gracefully avoids the fireballs with impossibly quick movements that seem like dancing rather than evading. After avoiding the second, he throws another gas bomb at the tigress.}"I guess I'll have to apologize to him after. Showmanship is my forte."
@Aggron She gasps, attempting to kick the bomb away while bunching up her neckerchief and holding it over her nose and mouth, taking in a breath of clean air while she can.
{The bomb explodes once kicked, enveloping the whole area in the toxic vapors.} "That little cloth won't help you." {In a moment, the Illusionist had closed the distance between them and struck with his blade, cutting through the girl's torso, taking her left arm off in the process.}
@Aggron For a moment, she's still, fire swiftly dying down. Both of her arms drop, and the rest of her soon follows, choking on the gas and her own blood. Soon, she ceases all movement, and lies still.
{Taking a moment to take in what he'd done, the Illusionist looks upon the tigress. Looking up, he sees that the sun has nearly risen. Once it does, he will no longer have the darkness to hide him. He runs off into the dying night to disappear until dusk once again falls.}
Re: haha I'm glad you like it! X3 I thought it would be a fun way to celebrate Haha yep it is! I been waiting to have him, Mal and Eira in the same picture for the longest time x'D

Keenan watches her exit the room, then decided to jump down and follow her, trotting to catch up.
"Eh, might as well see all the options, right?"
Toby goes for the right with his paw, then his head snaps in the other direction to try to stop the fish, his mouth opening so quickly it makes a quiet "gack" noise.

'Oh...' said Sheldon quietly. Sensing that he might not be able to sleep for a while, he propped himself up against the wooden headboard and gazed at her through his floppy red hair. 'Anything interesting?' he ventured. 'If I had a dream, I think I'd just see everything that's happened lately...'
01 Jan, 2018, 9:29 pm

01 Jan, 2018, 9:36 pm
After the discussion about Riverside, Armin got an idea. Ivy was on the living-room couch, staring into space, so he walked past her and let himself out the house, getting blasted by a chill night breeze. There was a faint hint of light on the eastern horizon, implying that dawn would come in only an hour or two.
Limping slightly, the vampire headed off towards the city, taking a shortcut through the woods.
If he hadn't been listening alertly for signs of enemies, he never would have noticed the dragon.
She was standing among the trees, her blue-scaled body surprisingly well-concealed. And she was grinning a familiar grin, obviously pleased to have caught Armin off-guard.
Slowly, the vampire drew his sword and turned to face her. 'Ana. Wasn't expecting to see you here. I thought you'd be back in the city, licking Sargon's boots.'
She scowled. 'I'm on break,' she said defensively. 'I didn't have anything to do, so I decided to come and look for you. You have a hideout somewhere in these woods, don't you? Where is it?'
'Wouldn't you like to know?' Armin muttered, tightening his grip on his sword. He'd have no chance of beating her if she attacked, so he tried to back off. 'Listen, it's nice seeing you again, but I have things to do. Sorry I can't stick around.'
(Continued)
01 Jan, 2018, 9:37 pm
{Vitis snapped out of a hundred mile stare.}"Sorry, birdo, I was just...That. That out there, with the mask and the blade and moving in ways it shouldn't be able to.......I suppose it shook me up, 'cause I'm usually the big scary monster and....I think we've just run into an even bigger monster."
01 Jan, 2018, 9:39 pm
@Draco
"Probably. With a bunch of kids in here they'd have all manners of things in the cupboards."
Toby looks just as confused, looking about as if it had come from elsewhere.
(They were playing football with the fisch and Jed did a spooky feign move)

(Aggron)
Crowley leaned back in the chair, folding his arms and rolling his eyes. 'Oh, come on. You weren't even transformed. If you were, you would've kicked his ass, easy. I got a smell of that guy, and he's just a human, no matter what fancy tricks he can do.'
01 Jan, 2018, 9:42 pm
"I remember seeing a lot of werewolves and vampires," Tochi began. "They were... uhm... raining from the sky. Then you appeared and became a bigger werewolf, and you tried to protect me." she smiled. "I think you did a pretty good job."
01 Jan, 2018, 9:43 pm

01 Jan, 2018, 9:46 pm
{After the lights went out, the skirmish was over before one could even blink. The light went out, the sound of a swishing blade, Dianne's pained cry, and that was it. She tried to raise draugrs, but she only had three spare souls left. All the rest were invested in the destruction of Sargon's food supplies, an op that was scheduled to take place that night. Magnus, being a dominant soul, took command in place of his master. He had been sent to the body of a staked vampire, and the other two were in the bodies of hefty werewolves. They circled around their fallen master, watching for any more attacks.}
Illusionist:"Oh, you don't need to do that, your Highness, I've already gotten what I want. Better hurry back to the priestess before she bleeds to death, Magnus. You're on the clock."
{Cursing to himself, Magnus had to make a decision. Pursue the assailant, or save his master.}
01 Jan, 2018, 9:47 pm
'Now hold on just a minute,' said Ana. She took a step towards him, and Armin tensed, preparing to run or fight her off. 'I have something to say to you. You are the worst kind of scum for leaving Lord Sargon like that. You abandoned him at a crucial moment and betrayed him to our enemies! I hate you, and if he ever orders you dead, I'll be the first to volunteer!'
Armin frowned. 'I already know you're head-over-heels in love with Sargon. Did you have anything else to say?'
'You TRAITOR! I might not be allowed to kill you, but I can still give you a reminder of why I'm better than you.' She drew in a deep breath, and invisible magic crackled around her like a thunderstorm. Her green eyes flashed. 'Excruciate!'
Armin screamed as incomparable pain ripped through him, throwing him against a nearby tree. It disappeared after just three seconds, leaving him slumped and gasping against the tree trunk.
Ana paced forwards until she was close enough to talk to him without raising her voice.

"Ah, nice. Gotta love some good tomata'." Thorn purred. "Say, what's your favourite flavour of soup?"
Jed made a small shrug-like motion, then rolled the fish properly, aiming at the middle of the box.
01 Jan, 2018, 9:48 pm
(Draco)
Sheldon's eyes widened. 'W-werewolves and vampires RAINING FROM THE SKY?' he stammered. 'UM, that's the most horrifying thing I've ever heard.' He was silent for a moment. 'I'm... glad I was in that dream, though.'
01 Jan, 2018, 9:49 pm
(King - Darn
Maybe he's not a good person on the inside
Or anywhere else)
01 Jan, 2018, 9:54 pm
"Yep. I'm glad they don't really rain from the sky," Tochi glanced at the window, but the dark red curtains blocked her view of the outside world.
"Have you had any dreams lately, Sheld?" she asked thoughfully.
01 Jan, 2018, 9:58 pm
(Draco)
'Uhm...'
His brow creased as he tried to remember something interesting enough to bother telling her about.
'Well... I haven't been sleeping much lately because of... everything. But before I woke up earlier, I had a quite strange dream. There was a - a lady who looked like a witch, and she was smiling in a really creepy way, and then she said something, but I don't remember what it was. And then... I woke up,' he finished blandly. 'But I knew she wasn't a nice person.'
01 Jan, 2018, 10:00 pm
{Vitis nods slowly.}"Yeah, yeah. You're probably right. I guess next time we'll--" {He was cut off by someone bursting through the temple doors. It was a vampire and two werewolves, only they were dead. The vampire had a stake through his heart and all of them were blood soaked. In the arms of the vampire was Dianne, still alive, but in a similar state.}"Pythia! We need some help!" {Pythia looked up and stared, at a loss for words at what she was seeing.}
01 Jan, 2018, 10:01 pm
"Huh. I wonder if you've seen her before, or if she's just someone you made up?" she wondered. "Or... it was a vision?"
01 Jan, 2018, 10:03 pm
(Aggron)
Crowley's head shot up at the sound of the door crashing open. 'Woah! Someone's been in a fight!' Then he suddenly recognised Dianne. 'Hey, wait a minute! She's the weirdo who tried to kill me once!' He moved as if to get out of his chair and finish Dianne off.
01 Jan, 2018, 10:04 pm
(Draco)
'I-I don't THINK I've ever seen her before,' said Sheldon uncertainly. He didn't want to consider the possibility that it was a vision. Those kinds of things really creeped him out. 'Y-you don't suppose YOUR dream was a - a vision too?'
01 Jan, 2018, 10:08 pm
Looming high above Armin, Ana spoke up, her voice barely louder than a whisper. 'I'll give you today. Next time I see Lord Sargon, I'm going to ask him if I can kill you. I'll get permission. And then you'll be dead, traitor.'
'Are you going to ask to sleep with him, too?' Armin gasped.
That had the desired effect. Letting out a scream of rage, Ana turned and stormed away. 'I'll get you in the end!' she yelled. Then, in a lightning movement, she spread her wings and leapt into the air, quickly disappearing behind the thick tree branches.
Groaning quietly, Armin pulled himself to his feet, using his sword as a crutch. 'Well, that could have gone better,' he mumbled to himself.
Once he felt like he could walk again, he turned in the direction of the city. He still needed to do what he came out here for.
01 Jan, 2018, 10:09 pm
(Hey, I've got to go back on my DS for a while because my mum is kicking me off the computer! I'll be slower.)
01 Jan, 2018, 10:15 pm
{At Crowley's aggressive approach, the two werewolves sprang between him and Dianne, growling and snarling. The vampire shot Crowley a warning glare. Vitis gets up as well and puts up a hand up towards Crowley while facing the wolves.}
Magnus" Why are you just sitting there?! Help me!"
{Pythia snaps out of it and springs to her feet.}"R-right! Take her into that room!"{Pythia points to a room and runs to get her supplies. The vampire doesn't hesitate to take Dianne the the room.}
Vitis:"Whoa, easy there buddy. Think before you act here. Look at their eyes!"
{Sure enough, the eyes of the werewolves and vampire are glowing, red, not the usual blue.}
Vitis:"Something's up. Those zombie things don't usually look like this!"
01 Jan, 2018, 10:17 pm
"Perhaps. Not the raining from the sky part, but maybe the bit with you," Tochi hummed quietly. "Don't get stressed over it, though."
01 Jan, 2018, 10:18 pm
( @Radiant Ok.
Daaaaaaaaaaaammmmnnnnnnn, Armin, savage level 10000000! XD)
01 Jan, 2018, 10:25 pm
wHEEZE
THANK YOU ARMIN
01 Jan, 2018, 10:27 pm
(Draco)
Sheldon nodded, still looking worried. 'You know,' he said abruptly, 'I've never actually TRIED to... turn into a werewolf before. The last time, when we were in the woods, it just... happened.' He stared into the distance. 'What if someday we're in danger and I can't do it to save y - I mean, us?'
01 Jan, 2018, 10:27 pm
(Armin has best comebacks)
01 Jan, 2018, 10:30 pm
@Draco
"Probably my nan's. She'd do this big pot of vegetables and bacon and slow cook it throughout the day. It was bloody brilliant."
He grins a little.
It takes him a moment to realise so he swipes his paw towards it, but he just misses it and ends up knocking it into the box himself.
( @Radiant
The only pure evil character (aside from DB, the embodiment of actual evil))

(ARMIN IS A LEGEND)
01 Jan, 2018, 10:32 pm
our cereal is made of satanwheat
01 Jan, 2018, 10:35 pm
(Whoops I forgot to Crowley)
(Aggron)
Crowley halted, squinting at the werewolves. '...Huh, that's true,' he said after a moment. 'They don't look like the other zombie things I've seen around the place.' His gaze went to Dianne as she was carried away. 'I wonder if she's gonna die?'
01 Jan, 2018, 10:36 pm
(Delicious satanwheat)
01 Jan, 2018, 10:37 pm
"Sounds amazing," Thorn said approvingly. "I have such a soft spot for bacon..."
Jed barked triumphantly, wagging his tail with excitement at his victory.
01 Jan, 2018, 10:39 pm
After making his way somewhat painfully into the city walls, Armin immediately began to look for a car. He'd figured there was no point in anyone walking all the way to Riverside when they could drive instead.
Most of the cars he came across had been abandoned by their human owners, who were either dead or had fled the city on their own two feet. It took him a while to find a vehicle that still had the key inside, and the one he found wasn't very impressive; a small Nissan Micra. He opened the door and climbed inside, looking at the array of controls. After a couple of bad starts, he succeeded in getting the car moving, and quickly set off back towards his hideout.
01 Jan, 2018, 10:45 pm
{Vitis didn't answer right away.}"Did you get a good look at her? I did. She's cut pretty deep in a lot of places. Too deep, in fact. I think we know who did that."
{Pythia, with her box of supplies, enters the room and closes the doors behind her.}
01 Jan, 2018, 10:45 pm
"Maybe you can practise tomorrow?" Tochi suggested. "We can go out to a secret place and see if we can get you to transform."
01 Jan, 2018, 10:48 pm
(Aggron)
'Oooh... it was that freak in the mask!' Crowley said, his eyes lighting up with sudden understanding. 'Huh, I guess that means I have competition. Cuz if HE wants to kill her, and I also want to kill her...' He trailed off and stared thoughtfully in the direction Dianne had been taken.
01 Jan, 2018, 10:50 pm
(Draco)
Sheldon wasn't sure how sensible an idea that was, seeing as they could be attacked by anything if they set foot outside, but he liked spending time with her too much to refuse. 'S-sure. That might be good.'
01 Jan, 2018, 10:54 pm
"Nice," Tochi said happily, nodding. "I'm sure you'll get the hang of it in no time."
01 Jan, 2018, 10:59 pm
(Draco)
Sheldon smiled back, albeit a little tremulously. 'Uhm, should we maybe sleep? It's nearly sunrise already...' He glanced towards the window, which was showing the faintest hint of a pale glow through the curtains.
01 Jan, 2018, 11:05 pm
@Draco
"Yeah! It's really good! Though, I will say that tomato soup is pretty good too."
Upon reaching the kitchen, Keenan stands on his hind legs and places his front paws on the counter, looking around for a moment before shifting into his human form.
"Hah, hands would help, wouldn't they?"
Toby grumbles a little, but only playfully. He trots out of the way, tail wagging a little.
01 Jan, 2018, 11:06 pm
{Vitis nodded with a smirk on his face.}"That's right. I think that mask guy's just as unhinged as you, if not more. Question is, what are you going to do about it?"
01 Jan, 2018, 11:12 pm
( @King The Illusionist is loose and lookin' for brink proxies. Got any he can take out from Sargon's army that Ana hasn't found yet?)
01 Jan, 2018, 11:18 pm
(Aggron)
'Uhhh...' Crowley considered it, at least as much as he was capable of 'considering' anything. 'I dunno. Maybe I'll hunt down the freak guy and kill him while his back is turned. Or maybe I'll just kill the creepy woman before he does.' He didn't seem to be able to remember Dianne's name no matter how often he heard it. 'But I really want to kill the mask guy. Are you gonna help me, or are you too chicken?'
01 Jan, 2018, 11:19 pm
"Alright," Tochi laid her head back down on the pillow. "Sweet dreams... don't let the raining vampires bite," she laughed a little.
01 Jan, 2018, 11:19 pm
Armin drove quietly through the woods and stopped outside his house. Leaving his 'stolen' car there, he opened the front door and slipped inside.
'We have transport to Riverside,' he stated to the room at large. 'For whenever we need to go there.'
01 Jan, 2018, 11:21 pm
(Draco)
Sheldon flopped down next to her, tugging the bedcovers almost over his head. 'Goodnight,' he said softly, as he lay there staring at the dimly lit window.
01 Jan, 2018, 11:28 pm
@Aggron
(Eeehhhh, I'll just make a couple of them up since the one's I've made up are gonna get stabbed elsewhere XD)
01 Jan, 2018, 11:32 pm
Thorn detatched one of her paws and floated it up to one of the high cupboards, swinging it open. There were only plastic cups inside.
01 Jan, 2018, 11:34 pm
{Vitis grinned., }"Hell, why not. You say jump, I'll say how high?"
01 Jan, 2018, 11:34 pm
"Night, Sheldy," Tochi said sleepily, closing her eyes.
01 Jan, 2018, 11:36 pm
(Aggron)
Crowley grinned. 'Sure. You help me, I'll help you... when I feel like it.' He thought for a second. 'You know, I bet that guy would be easier to kill in broad daylight. He'd be easier to see, at least.'
01 Jan, 2018, 11:38 pm
{Jerry got up.}"You did what?"
01 Jan, 2018, 11:47 pm
(Aggron)
'We have a car now,' said Armin, by way of explanation. He limped over to the couch and leaned against the back of it, startling Ivy, who gave him a slight scowl. 'I figured we needed a quicker way to get around, and if we're going to Riverside...'
01 Jan, 2018, 11:58 pm
{Jerry gives Armin a look of concern.}"You drove that car here? Cars make a lot of noise, Armin. Are you certain you weren't followed?"
02 Jan, 2018, 12:03 am
(Aggron)
Armin pulled a face of mock insult. 'I didn't let anyone follow me. I'm not an idiot. And if it makes you feel better, Sargon's right hand, Anastasia, already knows we live somewhere in these woods. She doesn't know the exact location, but if she really wanted to find it, I'm betting she'd be able to.'
He moved to sit down on the couch, stretching out his injured leg to place it on a footstool.
02 Jan, 2018, 12:08 am
{Vitis looks up thoughtfully.}"Well, it's going to be dawn soon. Want to look soon?"
02 Jan, 2018, 12:09 am
(King Ok, let me know when.)
02 Jan, 2018, 12:10 am
(Aggron)
Crowley adjusted his scarf. 'Sure, why not?' He glanced briefly at the hand the Illusionist had stabbed a knife through earlier, then shrugged and decided it didn't matter. 'As soon as it's light, we'll go and look for him.'
02 Jan, 2018, 12:10 am
@Draco
He peers into the cupboard Thorn opened to see what was in it, then opens the ones in front of him. In one was stacks of bowls and plates, and in the other was various tins of assorted foods, mostly vegetables.
"Huh...Not a lot in here."
@Aggron
(Got an idea for some brink kids--)
A trio of shifters pace down an alleyway, laughing heartily about something. On the right was a fox, chuckling quietly. On the left was a large wolf, albeit not the size of a werewolf, who seemed to be leading the conversation. In the middle as a tigress who seemed uninterested, but smiles a little.
"Hey, hey, did you see how Ryker got called out at that gathering thing? Looks like Sargon wanted a new lapdog!"
The fox and the wolf burst out laughing.
"Or maybe he wants find Brink and make 'im into a lil pet kitty!"
"C'mon boys, don't be so mean to the big an' mighty Count. He's way better than Brink."
"Treats us better too!"
"Yeah, we actually get what we want!"
"Oh yeah? An' what's that?"
"Killin' stupid old humans!"
"Yeah! Brink never let us do that!"
"Sometimes he did."
"Not enough though!"
02 Jan, 2018, 12:22 am
{Jerry groans and rubs his face.}"That's just great, Armin....Someone knows we're here? Who's this Anastasia chick anyway?"
02 Jan, 2018, 12:26 am
(Aggron)
'She's a witch/dragonshifter... hybrid?' said Armin. 'Anyway, she's Sargon's most trusted and powerful minion. She can use magic, which might be a problem for us. I never mentioned her until now because I didn't think she'd cause us any trouble, not directly at least.' He shrugged thoughtfully. 'I should have guessed she'd have it in for me for deserting Sargon.'
02 Jan, 2018, 12:28 am
( @King Oh, this is perfect. >:D)
{As the trio walked, a voice came out from the dark.}
Illusionist:"Care how you speak. He hates being called kitty."
02 Jan, 2018, 12:30 am
{Jerry gives Armin a mirthless look.}"A witch and a dragon. Sounds a lot like someone we know....What are her powers?"
02 Jan, 2018, 12:38 am
@Aggron
"Eh? Who's there?"
"We can speak how we like, thanks!"
The tigress simply growls into the darkness.
"Show yourself, stranger."
02 Jan, 2018, 12:43 am
(Aggron)
'Weeell, let's see...' Armin leaned back on the couch. 'She can use her magic in a lot of different ways, for small things like lighting a fire or creating a wind. But she also has four 'main' spells, and from what I remember, she's very proud of them.' He raised a hand with one finger held up. 'Number one: she can summon and control ghosts. They're non-solid spirits that can interact with physical objects but can't directly hurt you. She pulls them from nearby corpses, so it doesn't work if there aren't any.'
He put up a second finger. 'Number two, she can make herself invisible. It only works for as long as she stays still.' He raised a third finger. 'Three, she can call up a magical shield that will deflect most things. It wears down a bit more with each blow it takes.'
He gave a grim smile. 'Number four, she can hit you with a blast of magic that puts you in excruciating pain. It usually only lasts a few seconds, and doesn't work on everybody. So there's that.'
02 Jan, 2018, 12:43 am
(Oh whoops a novel)
02 Jan, 2018, 12:48 am
{The Illusionist just laughs.}"Sure, he didn't mind how you spoke about him, but he does take the matter of allegiance very seriously. " {From in front a them, comes rolling a small orb. Once it gets close, it explodes into a cloud of toxic gas.} "I'm sure you can guess why I'm here."
02 Jan, 2018, 12:54 am
( @Radiant I enjoy novels. XD)
{Jerry nods.}"Hm, that all? She doesn't sound too hard to kill. Once we can call in the calvary, we'll set a trap for her and put her down. Anything else we should know."
02 Jan, 2018, 12:56 am
(Aggron - Me too. XD)
'Anything else?' Armin repeated. 'Uhh... she has a massive and obvious crush on Sargon, does that count?'
02 Jan, 2018, 12:57 am
(Hey, I think I'm gonna head off for now. But we can continue RPing through the week like we discussed, if you like. I'll write replies when I check back in the morning.)
02 Jan, 2018, 1:03 am
{Jerry's eyes widen.}"Crush, you say? Exactly what do you mean, crush?"
02 Jan, 2018, 1:03 am
( @Radiant Alrighty!)
02 Jan, 2018, 1:05 am
(Aggron)
Armin shot him an exasperated look. 'I mean she's completely in love with Sargon. She thinks she's subtle about it, but if you ever hear her talk about him, you'll notice instantly. She clearly wants to sleep with him but won't admit it.'
02 Jan, 2018, 1:05 am
(Bye! :D)
02 Jan, 2018, 1:11 am
{Jerry makes a disgusted face.}"Ugh! That's //disgusting!// Isn't he like a million years old?"
02 Jan, 2018, 12:02 pm
@Aggron
The tigress, seeming to be the smartest of the three, leaps over the wolf as the orb explodes and heads down a tiny alley leading off, turning around a short while down to see what effect it had. The fox and the wolf where coughing and stumbling around, clearly disorientated.
02 Jan, 2018, 1:43 pm
(Aggron)
Armin looked amused by Jerry's reaction. 'Well, according to rumours he's nearly 500 years old,' he replied. 'And Anastasia herself is at least 250. If it makes it seem less disgusting, Sargon doesn't like her - in that way - whatsoever. He hardly even looks at her.'
02 Jan, 2018, 7:22 pm
{Jerry just shakes his head.}"Well, at least one of them has some sense. I can't help but wonder if we could use this information against them. Do you know if Anastasia keeps a diary?"
02 Jan, 2018, 7:27 pm
{The fox and wolf quickly succumb to the toxic gas. As the gas envelopes the the shifters, the sound of a blade slicing through their flesh is heard. Once the gas clears, it reveals the brutally dismembered bodies of the tigress' friends. }
02 Jan, 2018, 8:12 pm
(Aggron)
'Hmm, that seems like her kind of thing,' said Armin. 'But what are you going to suggest, that we steal it? It's not like we can just walk into Sargon's place.'
Ivy was watching them talk without interrupting.
02 Jan, 2018, 11:20 pm
{Jerry smiles.}"Not us. We'll use //our// dragon/witch. She could get it easy, I guarantee it. All we'd have to do is get Anastasia away from the tower so she won't sense the draugr. I take it Anastasia's spirit sensitive?"
02 Jan, 2018, 11:32 pm
(Aggron)
'Yeah. She can tell when anything like ghosts or spirits are nearby. That's what helps her find corpses to use.' Armin considered for a moment. 'How are you going to lure Ana away from the place?'
Ivy snickered. 'This is the stupidest plan I've ever heard of. ''Sneak into Sargon's tower and steal his assistant's secret diary''.'
02 Jan, 2018, 11:57 pm
{Jerry turned to Ivy with an unamused look.}"Quite clearly, Ivy, you've never heard of the concept of black mail. Along with the fact that Anastasia is Sargon's right hand and could have included some very useful information into that diary, if Anastasia is as 'in to' Sargon as Armin is describing, she's probably written about it, and wouldn't want that information to become public."
03 Jan, 2018, 12:11 am
(Aggron)
'Well, it seems like she doesn't bother to hide that she likes him,' said Ivy, folding her arms irritably. 'I'll bet lots of people already know. But maybe there are other things in the diary - IF she has a diary - that might be useful...'
03 Jan, 2018, 12:17 am
@Aggron
She gasps softly, then growls deeply, looking around for the source of her friends' deaths.
"Show yourself coward! Come out and fight me like a man!"
The orange of her pelt glows softly before bursting into flame, the slight darkening of her eyes eluding that the power is from her contract with Dark Brink.
03 Jan, 2018, 12:52 am
{The Illusionist laughs in the darkness.}"I'm the coward? It was you freaks that slaughtered hundreds of defenseless innocents. Here, you want me?"{The Illusionist steps into the light of a street lamp.}"Have at me, if you dare."
03 Jan, 2018, 12:54 am
{Jerry nods.}"Getting it isn't exactly a priority. We have to warn Riverside first, and we should probably get some sleep before that happens."
03 Jan, 2018, 1:38 am
Looks like you're a winner! Tell me your request and I'll do it as soon as possible. :B
Didn't I do a request for you years ago? I think it was Waluigi..
03 Jan, 2018, 11:24 am
(Aggron)
'Good idea,' said Armin. 'So, we'll be leaving around early morning?' He threw a glance towards the window. 'It's not far off dawn already. You two should go and sleep.'
03 Jan, 2018, 6:45 pm
{Jerry moves for the stairs.}Alright. Goodnight y'all. Oh yeah, one more thing. On the way there //and// back, I call shotgun." (//Ain't no way I'm riding on the roof!//)
03 Jan, 2018, 6:53 pm
@Aggron
The tigress roars, swiping a claw in the air and sending a fireball flying towards the masked human.
"At least Sargon gives us what we wanted! That charlatan Brink did nothing for us despite all the work we did for him!"
03 Jan, 2018, 7:11 pm
{The Illusionist tilts his head, allowing the fireball to pass him unharmed. He then draws his blade and starts moving towards the tigress.}"Brink rewards patience and dilligence, two qualities you deserters clearly lacked."
03 Jan, 2018, 9:05 pm
(Aggron)
'Hey! I'm not riding on the roof either!' protested Ivy, leaping to her feet.
'It's OK,' said Armin, letting out a huge yawn as he stood up and limped his way towards the stairs. 'You can go in the glove compartment. Or the trunk.'
He went upstairs to his room and shut the door on her screeching exclamation.
03 Jan, 2018, 9:20 pm
{Jerry went to bed as well.}"I'm sure the car has a back seat. G'night."
03 Jan, 2018, 11:02 pm
(Aggron)
'It does have a back seat,' Armin muttered to himself, having heard Jerry's reply through the walls. 'It just doesn't have any back doors.'
03 Jan, 2018, 11:02 pm
(I think we'll skip to morning as soon as the Illusionist is finished, unless anyone has other things they need to do.)
03 Jan, 2018, 11:28 pm
( @Radiant Yes! I'll have Oliver finish up quick once @King replies.)
04 Jan, 2018, 2:03 am
re: I'm fine with drawing quadrupedals; I actually studied them for a little while. :P
04 Jan, 2018, 10:16 pm
@Aggron
She looks in confusion at her fireball missing his head, then glares at him.
"Oh yeah? He don't like fancy theatrics either. He just wants the job done."
With that, she shifts into her human form - a young, scruffy teen with bright orange hair - and grins as her hands set on fire.
"Just like Count Sargon. An' I'm pretty sure he'd want a human as fighty as you offa this planet!"
He hurls another two fireballs at him, one a little slower than the other in an attempt to catch him off guard with the first and hit him with the second.
05 Jan, 2018, 12:12 am
{The Illusionist gracefully avoids the fireballs with impossibly quick movements that seem like dancing rather than evading. After avoiding the second, he throws another gas bomb at the tigress.}"I guess I'll have to apologize to him after. Showmanship is my forte."
05 Jan, 2018, 6:25 pm
@Aggron
She gasps, attempting to kick the bomb away while bunching up her neckerchief and holding it over her nose and mouth, taking in a breath of clean air while she can.
05 Jan, 2018, 6:46 pm
{The bomb explodes once kicked, enveloping the whole area in the toxic vapors.} "That little cloth won't help you." {In a moment, the Illusionist had closed the distance between them and struck with his blade, cutting through the girl's torso, taking her left arm off in the process.}
06 Jan, 2018, 1:31 am
@Aggron
For a moment, she's still, fire swiftly dying down. Both of her arms drop, and the rest of her soon follows, choking on the gas and her own blood. Soon, she ceases all movement, and lies still.
06 Jan, 2018, 8:49 am
{Taking a moment to take in what he'd done, the Illusionist looks upon the tigress. Looking up, he sees that the sun has nearly risen. Once it does, he will no longer have the darkness to hide him. He runs off into the dying night to disappear until dusk once again falls.}
