Highschool of a Thousand Terrors - Actual RP

"The truth is always stronger than hatred or anger. Sadness has relinquished the piece of sorrow to you." Truth says, nearly reading your mind. Sadness had run over to you and slipped his lantern in your hands. He then bowed and faded into mist before flying back to Flynn's body, leaving you with Truth.
 
Noah places the lantern in a cocoon and swallows it. "I appreciate you giving me a more fair chance." Noah said gulping it down. Where else would he put it? He currently had no pockets. "So what's the catch? How am I going to get the lantern from you?" Noah said slightly tired from the previous fight.


(Going to go to bed after a few more posts.)
 
"Hm indeed that is a serious question. I have no intentions of just giving it to you." He said. "But I am no fighter. No. I would like to deal with this like civilized folks. What would you give me in return for the truth of His soul? 
(Ok)
 
Noah thinks over things in his mind. "I truly do admire this level headed thinking. I believe your familiar with the saying, and eye for an eye? In exchange for the truth of Flynn's soul, I produce an honest truth from myself? A truth that not many people know."
 
"Ah I see. That seems a fair trade. Though be warned. The truth is painful, and often hideous to look at." He warned, basically because of the memory viewing effect of the lanterns.
 
Noah began to look through his mind for the most secretive and sincere truth he had. Noah nervously thought if rescuing Flynn's soul would be worth it, but he quickly dismissed the thought. It was. Noah was sure Flynn is a good person and it would break his aged heart if he saw how sad Nessa would be. Noah took a shaky breath in. "I truly am disgusted with myself. It is a challenge for me to threaten my own life for others. Fighting Anger and Hatred took every bit of courage in me. I choose to watch because If I interact, I will eventually become closer and that is when I am afraid that I will use my life to save the ones close to me. This characteristic of myself I loathe." A single tear dropped from Noah's right eye. Taking another shaky inhale Noah says "Now give me that lantern." 
(Well that took a lot out of me. Anyways its late for me and my creativity is drooping. This was good fun, good night,)
 
Tira was sat on a table, the red book sat in her hands as she sighed. They all went Imp hunting huh? She would've joined in but she had gained a small but childish hatred of the fox, even though the past was not his fault at all. Flipping the next page she was reading about her clans healing techniques. With a sigh she folded the page, closing the book as she stood up. The whole time she had not looked up once from her book, despite the fact it was a party. Or was. With a sigh she glanced around, no longer just listening to them as she huffed. "Chasing the Kitsune's imps?~" She spoke quietly as a grin came upon her lips. "Lets hope that Foxy-kun gets a 'Christmas miracle' then." Sighing she stood up, holding the book against her torso. There was no point her helping, she didn't know what to do against an Imp thing so she decided to stay out of it. Glancing over she noticed Lux, and one person she suddenly recognized as Umbra. Wasn't Umbra gone? He vanished! She refused to believe that Umbra was standing there. See, when people have a bookcase fall on them they leave a lasting impression. She hurried over, giving a small wave to Lux before she turned her gaze to 'umbra'. "You...you are Umbra right?" She asked, clutching her book tighter.
 
Umbra backed up a bit when Tira approached him. "Y-Yes." Lux returned the wave and watched the two. "It seems like someone remembered your existence after all. This is truly a miracle of sorts." Umbra was surprised that somebody actually recognized him. He looked the same, except for his longer hair, which was currently tied into a small ponytail. However, nobody even remembered him. "Your name is Umbra, Black? It's fitting of you."
 
She stopped for a moment as her mind seemed to try work itself out. "Your back!~" She chimed, finally cheering up and her mind finally getting over the shock. Oh, she was still shocked. With a grin she gave the once missing boy a hug, the grin on her lips growing before she released him. "Where did you go though Umbra? You just vanished?! You were never in the library or in the classes." She asked quickly, setting her hands upon her waist as she frowned slightly. "Black?" She asked, turning to Lux.
 
Lux faced the girl after she questioned his naming of Umbra. "In this world of gray, I have a rainbow of colors that have been accumulated since my arrival. Blue, Red, Yellow, they all have been found and placed into this rainbow. Black here was the first color to be added. While it is not a traditional part, it has claimed a place in my own. The color was added months ago on the day of my arrival. I would go into further detail, but that will be included in Black's explanation of his absence."
 
Tira listened carefully before she nodded. "I see..." she whispered quietly as she glanced to the ground. "So people are colours to you?" Turning back to Umbra with a frown, her blue orbs staring at him worriedly. "Umbra..." Looking at the black haired male directly, fingers laced together in front of her. "Please tell me why you vanished..." She asked.
 
Umbra was feelingly a little uncomfortable with the way the girl was staring at him. Well, uhm, I kinda...died..." He really couldn't put it in simpler terms. There was more to it than that, but he would see how she reacted to this first. "And that's how Lux and I met. Well, he met my body..."
 
Died? Blue orbs stared at him in shock, the colour draining from her features. "E-eh?!" She paused, trying to work this out. "Y-you died..." Once again, she had returned to the useless stutter she tried so hard to rid herself of. Even if she stops, it comes back in some situations. "B-but there w-was no body! I-it seemed as I-if you just vanished.." She trailed off. "I t-thought you were k-kidnapped...O-or l-left the school...." She seemed to get upset now. "I'm s-sorry! I s-should of s-spoken to the t-teachers! But t-they went on as u-usual so I thought t-they knew what happened to y-you...I-im sorry..."
 
Umbra panicked a little when he saw Tira's reaction. "N-No, it's not like that! I mean I died, but I didn't really!" Umbra ran his hand through his hair, trying to find a way to explain this properly. "My soul was damaged and it had to repair itself. My body reformed shortly and I was back to normal." He tried his best to reassure her that everything is fine. He held his mask at his side. "I'd never really die. I'm immortal after all." He still had some explaining to do about the Occultus thing, but he wanted her to feel better first.
 
She blinked. Once, twice, three times before she spoke again. "O-oh..." Thinking about it, if he died he wouldn't be here. SO he wasn't really dead. Feeling stupid she blushed before pouting slightly, looking at the ground. Once she got out of sulking she nodded, trying to take this seriously, or as seriously ass Tira appeared to ever be. "T-then why didn't you come back?" She asked quietly, pulling the book to her so she could scratch lightly at its leather cover.
 
"Well, things didn't work out for me here the first time and I couldn't exactly come back after all that." He looked at the mask in his hand, remembering when he created Occultus. "After some things happened, I really wanted this school thing to work. I didn't want to give up on my hopes" He put the mask up to his face, but didn't put it on. "That's when I created Occultus. That way I could come back here and things worked out great for me after awhile. I made friends and started doing better." He took the mask away from his face and let it rest at his hip. "I couldn't exactly go back after all that, so I stayed as Occultus. Well, until the mask broke."
 
She listened carefully. He really wanted to make friends here? To make this place work for him? A smile came to her lips when she thought of the first time she spoke to him. Mainly, when the bookcase fell on him, well he ran away from her first. She chuckled softly before she glanced over at Umbra. "Im glad you are back and this time getting what you want~" She chimed, pulling her arms behind her. Her hatred for the fox forgotten, her family forgotten and this stupid Imp game out of her head she seemed a lot happier. Good news makes things better right? "Lets hope this time a book case wont fall on you then!~"
 
Umbra's face reddened when he recalled that event. "Y-Yeah.." Lux clapped slowly after listening. "That's quite the tale, Black. I always wondered what the smiling red angel was like after that day and I'm quite pleased with the answer. However, the question still remains..." He took the mask and placed it on front of his acquaintance's face. The mask covered one half, while the other was uncovered. "Do you wish to stay as your persona, or will you return to being the man behind the mask?"


After a moment of contemplation, Umbra took the mask in his hands. "Occultus gave me a lot. He helped me grow and he gave me friends. My time as him was better than my five hundred years of life." He ran his hands over the white covering. "But," he put the mask away and turned to his friend. "His time is over. I'm Umbra Necrus." Lux smirked when he listened to his words. "A fine answer, Black. I look forward to getting to know the brighter coloring of you."
 
She could only beam at Umbra's answer, pushing her weight to the balls of her feet as she reached up to pet Umbra's head playfully. "Nice one~" She cooed before pushing her book into her bag. "You'll do fine as Umbra, well it wouldn't matter who you are since you are a part of this torture filled place, you are always one of this...odd family..." She mumbled. Mostly thinking Eona. She definitely loved the girl, she was a closed friend and person she trusted after all, but she was odd. To be honest...now that she thought about it... they were all odd. Of course, Foxy-kun was pushed angrily from that group by the side of her that wanted to embrace her clans egotistical pride. "Welcome back as Umbra Necrus then!~" She cheered.
 
Umbra nodded, face still red. "Thank you." Lux looked at the two and how they interacted. "Like I said earlier, Black, you do better at attracting a mate without the mask." Umbra began coughing when he heard his friend bring that subject up again. "Why do you keep talking about this!?"
 
She glanced over at Lux curiously, tilting her head. Her brother, being a flamboyant idiot with a sister complex made sure she didn't know a lot of things like that, so she had no clue on what that mean. "Mate?" She glanced back to Umbra, then back to Lux until she got an answer from one of them. "And that means?"
 
"A mate is a-" Umbra cut his friend off before he could explain. "It's nothing! Don't worry about it!" He didn't need to talk about this right now. Lux was too straightforward.
