In Character

"Yes, of course. I can further understand your chemical make up. I could make more materials to help channel, sedate, control, hell who knows what else you could do with your power!" Sebastian handed the vial to Alex and he screwed the lid on the vial tightly, putting it away. "I'm going to get started right away! Ohhhh the breakthroughs we'll discover!" Alex hurried back to his cabin to retrieve his suit 


Sebastian watched him run excitedly. "I really hope he doesn't break one on himself... I'm sure he'll be careful"

Snow: "It might force him to love me like it did to you." She said bitterly, looking away and bit her lip a little. She was still unsure if Sebastian even really cared about her or if it was all a lie.

Sebastian hardened at that thought. Alex... loving Snow.. 


"Let me grab my swords really quick." Sebastian tugged Snows finger tips as he ran back inside to the kitchen to grab his blades off the counter. He rushed back out and closed the door. "Don't know how I forgot..." 
 
Jade lead down the twists and turns of the mythical castle ruins. They turned down large hallway and came to a high church way

There was someone at the alter praying. Jade and Decimus' footsteps echoed and exposed them. The person turned quickly to see who was coming. They weren't in proper attire... 


"Ohshit.."


"Hello there...."


"Get out of here!!" A woman's shriek. 


More rushed footsteps now headed this way

Jessse looked at the paintings on the wall. The scratches showed the little treelings in a forest, a long scratch with a pointed tongue, sort of rectangular four legged tailed serpent tongued creature, he stood in front trees bent together, a taller treeling held two sticks, joined by the treelings he attacks the rectangular scratch, the next pannel was blacked. Jesse looked down to the little Heishaw. "Why is this one smudged? What happened?" The treelings all looked down and shuffled. "Got it." They had lost


Jesse nodded and made his decision. He needed to take care of this for them. Leviathan's presence loomed in him, confirming. He rubbed his hand on the Heishaw's head. "I'll take care of it, don't worry little guy." The Heishaw and his people looked up to Jesse sadly, and they all ran to him, hugging and wrapping their arms around him. They climbed on top of each other to hug him as much as possible, weighing him down with all of their combined weight. Jesse laughed and hugged as many back as he could. They hopped off and back around him. He bumped the head of Kobra on the Heishaw's honey spiral. "Don't expect some sort of notice. I'm going to take care of it, but I have to keep moving. Come... five days after I leave. Your home will be cleared. I promise." Jesse twisted and stretched, and after his little warm up waved goodbye and ran out of the Palace, back along the bridge, and back into the forest. 


Kobra's eyes were dimly glowing, growing more as he faced the right direction. My sssstaff will guuiiiidde you to my ffforrmmssss and minnionssss


"Nice... now we won't get turned around"
 
Sebastian hardened at that thought. Alex... loving Snow.. 


"Let me grab my swords really quick." Sebastian tugged Snows finger tips as he ran back inside to the kitchen to grab his blades off the counter. He rushed back out and closed the door. "Don't know how I forgot..." 

Snow: She tilter her head confused as he draged her inside. She loooked at him as he grabbed his swords. "Why do you need your swords?" She hit her lip and watched him rush to close the door. "What are you doing silly?"
 
"uh...wow that's a pretty bitchin sword dude. Alright I'm impressed!" Jacob said as he laughed and shook Derek's hand. Derek laughed with him and they shared a nice moment of peace," oh I almost forgot here's the blades sheathes, they can attach to your belt for easy access." Jacob took the sheath and attached them,"cool thanks, oh there's a guy inside the house injured and I think we should check on him." Jacob said as he walked towards the entrance of the building.


Just as Jacob looked back to the building he saw the man he had picked up standing in front of him, Jacob stopped in his tracks surprised. " hello there are you the one that brought me here?" "yeah I did geez how the hell are you alright so soon I thought your bones got crushed by the trees?!" " they were and I felt them moving back into place and healing, all the pain that came with it too. But I couldn't move so I had to endure the pain for as long as I could, I ended up passing out from it. When I woke up I didn't feel the pain anymore and then came out here and that's it."


Derek and Rose walked to Jacob as he talked to a stranger," hey Jacob do you know this guy?" "kinda hey what is your name?" " My name is Igor, Igor Gevaudan Anub'araka. And what are all of yours?" " Jacob Riser Augus" Jacob said as he directed Igor to the others, "Rose Fuil Halestorm" rose said waving at Igor. "Derek Iudex Gundyr" Derek established after he took a sip from his flask.
 
Snow: She tilter her head confused as he draged her inside. She loooked at him as he grabbed his swords. "Why do you need your swords?" She hit her lip and watched him rush to close the door. "What are you doing silly?"



"I forgot my weapons for a split second longer than intentional, my apologies running around and what not." It had gotten dark now, but the white light of the fire illuminated the camp very well. Sebastian stared at it intently. He looked over his shoulder to Snow and tilted his head to the fire, smirking and extending a free hand to her. "Shall we?"

Sebastian stared at it intently. He looked over his shoulder to Snow and tilted his head to the fire, smirking and extending a free hand to her. "Shall we?"

Snow: She blushed, taking his hand. She looked over at what he was staring at intently and noticed the fire. "That's a really big fire." She laughed softly and then looked back to him. "Do you like bon fires?"

"Well.. I've never really been around any. Have you? We could use its illumination for our training purposes." He guided them to the benches angled in from of the NE cabin in front of the pit. "Alright daggers up"

Snow: She nodded and held up her twin daggers, shivering in anticipation and nerves. She didn't know what it would be like fighting Sebastian. Her dress and bow fluttered in the wind. Her blue eye flashed gold in the fire light.
 
Jasper oooood as Hunter disappeared 


He felt a cool familiar tingle in his heart 


Jaaaasper..


"Right..." Jasper looked from where Hunter was, if he was even there, back to the center fire pit. What if he could get Hunter to touch the white flames... He was going to try to lure Sebastian, but this could work out better. "Hey Hunter... change in plans... forget bugging them.... you see the center pit? It turned bold white while you were gone. I touched it when it was blue if you remember, and that happened..... you should touch it. I don't wanna seem greedy and change it again you know?"

"Oh alright.  But if i get burned I'm kicking you"


He gives a settle smile.  He walks towards the pit.  


"Wait.  No.  It's a white fire.  I should capture it to keep and then touch it.  You know? "


He runs and jumps over the wall heading towards his cave.  He finds a nice small crystal and wacks at it with the sword. It breaks off. He cuts it in half and then carves out on one piece the center.  So that it is like a locket and he takes it to the camp.  He jumps over the wall.  


The crystal was a clear crystal. Hard but can break easily with enough force.  Just for the time being.  


He shows jasper


"You think this will work to capture it?"
 
"Cool we're all acquainted with each other now." Derek said he then noticed a couple box's by the front of the building he went to investigate, when he picked them up he noticed they had names on them. There was one for Derek and one for Jacob, he brought the box over to Jacob and they both read the letters attached to them.


"well that's cool I guess but I don't know how to feel about the dude giving us semi-faulty stuff." Jacob said as he opened the box and saw the gauntlets that were inside. "Eh I'm sure I can probably fix whatever is wrong with these things. Just give yours to me and I can get started on them in no time." Derek said as he took the weapon out, Jacob handed the gauntlets to Derek trusting him to take care of them." It should only take a day or two to fix them, no worries." 


" Alright just don't ruin them before I even get the chance to use them." " I guess in that case we might as well find something to kill some time with." Rose said as she began to walk away with Jacob," forgive me if this is too much to ask for, but may I join the two of you?" Igor asked the two with a slight nervous nature. " Of course you can!" " Just don't get on my nerves and you can come, we're headed off now so I hope your ready to go." Jacob said as he walked towards the gate.


Just before the group reached the gate Jacob was hit with yet another surge of pain seemingly out of nowhere, this time seemed to be slightly worse than the last time. He was brought to his knees, he began to scream uncontrollably and he could feel as if his back was trying to expand out of his body. As per usual just as fast at the pain came it was over, " Man I'm really getting sick of that shit happening all the time." " Are you alright there Jacob?" " yeah don't worry about me I'm fine." Jacob said getting back on his feet, Igor watched in shock at what happened he was concerned about just what it was that was causing Jacobs pain.
 
Snow: She nodded and held up her twin daggers, shivering in anticipation and nerves. She didn't know what it would be like fighting Sebastian. Her dress and bow fluttered in the wind. Her blue eye flashed gold in the fire light.



"Your body is a target, and anywhere can be damaging, but there are five spots that you must always protect: your inner thighs, your front especially your chest, your neck, your face, and your back. You shouldn't let your opponent get the upper hand at all, but everything else can come as a toss up." Sebastian held his blades up. The light twinkled off of them. "Strike me, I want to see your force"

"You think this will work to capture it?"



"Well.... it's fire........ so no. But anything is possible. Come on let's find out." Jasper led them over to the pit, the opposite side of Sebastian and Snow. The fire crackled boldly. Jasper leaned back at its towering height. Something told him trying to contain this fire would be an extremely bad idea. It seemed too powerful and free spirited to be so easily contained. Jasper reached towards the fire then pulled back. "Tooouch it! Just throw you hands into the flames!"
 
Jesse rested at a little pond. A few fish swam here, he could see them under the clear waters. They seemed so peaceful. Jesse peeled off his boots and dipped his feet into the water. Laying back and splashing a bit, Jesse began to relax. It wasn't too long after that he heard hissing. A deep hissing. An airy growl. He looked up and around. 


IMG_0527.jpg


A giant kimono dashed out of the forest and into the pound. Jesse hollared and bolted up, grabbing his tools in one hand and his boots in the other. It roared and charged after Jesse. In a few strides it was leaping over Jesse and turned to face him, blocking his path. It growled as it came closer then roared in his face. Jesse jabbed up with the spear and stabbed the beast through its lower jaw. It thrashed its head and ripped the spear from Jesse's hand, flinging it out of its jaw and crashing in the forest. Green slimy blood dropped out and was gunked all over Jesse's hands and Kobra. The staffs eyes were shining brightly. Jesse used the time of distraction to quickly get away from the monster and into the forest. The kimono quickly chased after Jesse, dashing around the trees. 


Jesse hit behind a tree and waited. When the creature came running around he twisted from around a tree and raised Kobra through the hole in its mouth he made before. The eye holes flashed blindingly and the creature stopped. It's muscles relaxed, it's joints bent, and it crashed down on its stomach. Jesse raised its head with the staff poking into his mouth. It looked painful, but the creature wasn't attacking him anymore. He twisted the Kobras head to more easily slide back out of the hole, actually ripping it a bit more. The creature roared but submissively laid back down. Jesse nodded, that was more like it. He walked back the way the creature made him run, and the kimono slowly followed behind him. He made his way across the water and land to the other split of the forest. His spear crashed against a tree not too far in. Picking it up he turned back to the kimono. "Take me to Leviathan." The reptilian shrunk more at that name, but couldn't disobey. It turned and crawled ahead, leading back up the pond Jesse had once rested. Passing it, he noticed a fish had been crushed. He reached in and picked up the easy meal. Using the spear tip to break away the scales, Jesse ate his fish while following the kimono
 
Where would they go? The footsteps echoed all around them. They could run back down the hall, but what would be the point? They were discovered now. 


Decimus walked up to the woman in prayer. She wore long white robes, typical. His hands were raised but each step towards her made her flinch back. "Stop! STOP!!" Her shrieks echoed. "Over here!!!" They heard a man yell. "We don't mean you any harm, please. We're lost. We're trying to hide, can you hide us?"


The woman looked at Decimus with fear. His voice was so calming...maybe she could trust them.. She looked to the woman behind Decimus and squinted angrily. She didn't like the other woman. She looked back to Decimus and nodded. "Quickly.." She lead them through the pastor's door 
 
"Your body is a target, and anywhere can be damaging, but there are five spots that you must always protect: your inner thighs, your front especially your chest, your neck, your face, and your back. You shouldn't let your opponent get the upper hand at all, but everything else can come as a toss up." Sebastian held his blades up. The light twinkled off of them. "Strike me, I want to see your force"

Snow: She nodded as spoke to her and bit her lip just slightly. She didnt know if she could strike him... He was her friend. She... No she couldnt admit she had feelings for him but she did care deeply for him. "I... I don't knows if I can hit you Sebastian..."

"Dont worry, I won't let you" Sebastian held his weapons steady. He could tell Snow was hesitant- she wasn't the combat type. He tapped his blade into hers. "Like that." He remembered watching Alex an Jasper, maybe they had some good insight that could help her... he looked around a bit to spot them, failing. It didn't matter he could teach her himself

Hunter reaches to the core of the fire with the crystal. The view was off from hunters POV. It looked like he caught the core as his hands touched the fire


"It surprisingly doesn't hurt"

The fire radiated, circling, whirling rapidly contained within the crystal. It burned and it burned quickly until the crystal melted away. The fire shined off of Hunter's ring brilliantly, turning the whole pillar into a rainbow of burning glow. The fire's rainbow light burned brightly, glowing out, then, fading in on itself, shrinking back to its smaller size in the center. It's light replaced with an ominous black that shot purple embers

Snow: "Okay..." She nodded and breathed in as she raised her weapon and struck it against his. She winced, worried it was a bad strike.
 
" Jacob I must ask you this, it may sound strange but does it feel like your bones are shifting and moving around on your back?" Igor asked as he went over to Jacob. " Yeah why? Do you think you know what's causing it?" " Perhaps...I have a guess but we need to wait for the next time that it happens, then I can fully know what I'd be dealing with." "alright stick by me and when it starts again I'll let you know." Jacob and Igor then walked over to the steps in front of the North Western building to wait for the pain surge to resurface.


Rose was going to join Jacob and Igor, until all of a sudden Rose caught the scent of something she had never experienced before. Rose turned to find the source of the aroma and discovered that it was coming from the forest, without even thinking Rose began to follow the scent further into the forest.
 
As she advanced more and more into the forest with only the intoxicating scent being her only guide through the woods, while walking she saw something bright off into the distance. Rose continued towards this light curious as to what it was, when she finally found the light it was a small field of roses, Rose moved in closer to the field and kneeled down to pick one of the flowers. When she touched the rose it felt wet as if it were drenched, Rose looked up from where the field was to see just how far it stretched. She followed the field until she came upon the source of it all, the intoxicating scent, the flowers, and why they flowers felt the way they did. Rose had found the coffin that she had awoken from and how it was overflowing with blood, she approached the coffin slowly and gazed at the large pool of sweet sanguine that laid before. Rose couldn't help but be enticed by its irresistible scent, her instincts drew her to cup her hands in the blood, raise them to her lips, and drink all of the blood In her hands. 


The moment the blood touched her tongue Rose was immediately hit with an overwhelming sensation of chills throughout her body as well as the blood filled her with memories of not just her past but the past of others she had seem to know, soon after she swallowed the last of her handful the sensation ended. As the feeling faded away she longed for more, so much so that she grabbed the nearest thing to suffice as a cup. Rose looked around frantically for anything she could until she saw a skull on the other side of the coffin, she took the skull and scooped it full of blood filling it to the brim. As Rose drank from the skull the sensation returned as did the flow of memories, this time they were clearer and she could understand them more. After completely emptied the skull she set it on the edge of the coffin, her eyes had changed to their black and red state, her nails grew longer and sharper than before, and her teeth became pointed and sharp. Rose exhaled in ecstasy, the blood had triggered something deep within her and Rose will never be the same. Now that she knows what she is.


The skull cup:

An elderly woman at in a high carved wooden chair. She too wore long white robes, but with a green lining in her hood. Her back was to the door and she was undisturbed by the intrusion. "Grandmother... please.. these intruders- I mean..."


"Hush darling, bring them here" 


The woman walked Decimus and Jade around to face the old voice. Her eyes were aged, wrinkled shut. Her lips barely visible. "Ahhh.. its you.... you've finally come for these old bones" Jade and Decimus looked at each other then back to the lady. "Excuse me?" "They always said the man in black would come for us all." Decimus rechecked his attire- leather, and black. 


"He's.. he's not here to kill you grandmother.. I don't think..."


"No, No! We're not here to kill anyone."


"We were looking for some place to rest."


"Our shrines are grown within the branches of the trees." The old woman's voice had a tinge of suspicion 


[COLOR= rgb(75, 0, 130)]"We are looking for guidance." [/COLOR]Jade hurried and pulled out her spell tomb and handed it to the woman. "Oh my... old magic. Daaark magic...." Her old face was sagged over a smile. "Yes.. of course I'll help you. Darling, take care of the guards. Your scare surely alerted them.


The young woman quickly pulled her hood forward and rushed back out of the room. She had forgotten the guards were coming.


Decimus and Jade turned back to the old woman when the door closed. "Well? Aren't you gonna help an old woman up? Take me to my study."
