Fantasy Magic Brew Cafè (CLOSED)

[thistle]

Jun stumbled backwards, chocking on smoke and ash as he nearly collided into the bar stools. Discombobulated by what had just happened, there was little time to note who was in the cafe and who was outside as he suddenly clutched a hand to his chest, panting. It felt as if someone had hooked a metaphysical line deep inside him and was using that as a medium to draw energy from him. He could fill it spilling out of him slowly, and it left the shade trembling.


Holding onto fading consciousness, his feet wobbled beneath him as he made his way into the back room, collapsing on the bed.

 

[Uasal]

Ase slid back from the hell hound supprised by the sudden out burst within a populated city "Dalm mutt why now of all times!" she said coldly steadying herself. she let her wings form on her back and Excalibur in her hands "this is bad , we cant let him get to the humans Excalibur" "understood". Ase pointed the sword at the main head of the dog and got into a charging stance "come than hell spawn!"

 

[Elfia Nightwing]

"Jun!" Ellie squeaked in surprise as the shade got up and wobbled to the back, "What is going on!?" Ellie cried, looking around with confusion, "Vinny!" she called out again as she got up, before feeling Estelle grip the bottom of her shirt tightly, "Elinor...Please, Don't go..."she cried, latching herself onto the older girls leg.

 

[RegalWindstar]

Akira raised an eyebrow "When have I ever been a bad guy? From the first day I entered the cafe you've hated me, I never knew why. I might be crazy but thats not really my fault. I never asked to be like this. I'm not a saint I know that, but I've never been a bad guy either. I'm just protective over the people I care about. Oliver... Is family. I do admit I haven't liked you one bit because of my protectiveness over Oliver, I just don't like the way you treat him or talk about him and I. Really? Imp fetish? Thats just low and very disgusting. I'll never forgive Ase, I can't after what she did to Oliver. But I'm not going to let her die just because of my grudge against her your child will need you both." her hand pat Maria's head before she winced as she took off again her flight a bit unstable.


She managed to find Ase and seen Oliver with her Akira seen Oliver get flung and seen Ase turn turn to the hound. Akira glared "She can't take those on alone" She landed down next to Oliver picking him up and handing him to a Crystal fairy who flew off with him back to Maria with a couple of other crystal fairys. She rushed up to Ase's side "I have Oliver being taken out of here, are you alright Ase?" She spared a side glance to Ase as she started creating Tree Ents, Fairies and Gryphons out of crystals around them to help.

Raya was relieved as she was teleported, that instinct evaporating as she appeared in the cafe. She looked around panic in her eyes, she wasn't sure when that power would snap in half then crawl back to what ever hell hole it liked to vacation in, but the thought terrified her. She looked around, spotting Jun stumbling into the backroom as the pain suddenly hit.


She nearly screamed, instead yelping and dropping down to her knees, everyone probably thought she got hurt but she ignored the stares and hunched over.


Raya had only ever used that much power once, and it took 8 seconds to snap away, 1, she thought as the first blade struck and she cried out. 2, it was being carved out by fangs, and she felt the energy melt away. 3, it burned and a few tears streamed down her face as she dropped to the ground and grabbed hold of anything she could. 4, it burned more and claws ripped the power away. 5, she felt sudden blankness causing her blind panic to stop abruptly. 6, it almost felt like she was bleeding out and she continued her cries. 7, she felt that wound of losing that amount of power clot then gradually start to heal. 8, the pain dissapeared but left her feeling dizzy and disoriented


Raya jumped to her feet suddenly, groaning then grabbing hold of an empty bar stool to keep from falling over, great. Just great

 

[thistle]

Before he could act Vahl watched as the shade suddenly combust into flames and vanish from view. What remained was simmered ground, still smoking as the castor reappeared in almost the exact same spot. Among the chaos, no seemed to pay the boy mind as he took the hands of others and fell into flames again.


He thought briefly of seeking Jun's whereabouts but had a mind to restrain himself. Instead he returned back to the manor where Serathi was, her naked back to him. Aside from the soft splashes breaking the surface of the water, the looming silence was quite a change from where he had been seconds ago. "At this rate, it'll be Abaddon who takes down your son, Serathi."

[Cryobionic]

Vincent was jolted into action by the startled shouts and flashes, and jumped over the bar top, rushing over to the terrified looking group. Out of all of them, the fairy prince looked the most calm, if one didn't take into consideration the way he was twitching and clenching his fists. Walking over to him, the demon stared at him in confusion and a slight hint of panic, "What the hell happened out there?"

 

[Elfia Nightwing]

Maria looked down touching her stomach lightly, "Damn it," she murmured lightly, "Ugh!" she cried out, looking up as a passed out Oliver was carried over to her. "Whatever,"Maria sighed, running back to the cafe, with Oliver in her arms.


Serathi turned slightly to view Vahl, her eyes two red slits, "What?..." she growled, moving so fast out of the bath, there was barely a sound of splashing water, "I thought I told you I wanted to end him!" she growled, gripping Vahl's neck tightly, digging her nails in his neck.

 

[Uasal]

Ase looked over at the fairy with a grin "hmm i'm fine , didn't expect to see you here , enjoying the festivity's?" Ase joked trying to lighten the mood "Master this is no time for joking around your energy would be best used on the enemy in front of you"

 

[RegalWindstar]

Alexander looked at Vincent "Some sort of three headed hound appeared at the damn festival. Akira and I got Raya out, she went back though forcing us to go with Oliver" His voice raised and cracked at that last part his fist slamming into a nearby table cracking it "She wanted to make sure the others were safe! Dammit!" his fist slammed against the table again the crack growing. He was really starting to lose his cool.


@Cryobionic

Akira rolled her eyes "Oh yes I really enjoy a big freaky three headed hound coming and ruining my date with Alexander!" she smirked before her eyes softened "Ase you have a child on the way, you should be with Maria not here, What will you do if you die? That child will lose one of its parents."


@Mr Swiftshots

 

[Uasal]

"oh please my child and fiancee will have me watching over them no matter what happens and no mutt is going to stop that!" Ase said coldly looking back to the dog "besides who else is going to stop this thing from slaying the humans"

 

[Cryobionic]

The demon frowned, looking over at the window. He had heard the snarls and bangs of something, quite a ways away. Looking up at Alexander, he asked the necessary question, hoping he was wrong in his assumptions. "What... What did it look like?"

 

[DestinyRed]

Raya steadied herself then pressed her fingers to her temple. This was not good. Then she heard someone's voice raise and she looked at Alexander who slammed his hand down on the table. She walked over then placed her hand on his shoulder and looked him in the eye, "Calm your shit!" She yelled at him, her power -no matter how much it stung- attempted to give him some clarity, "Akira will be fine and if she gets hurt I'll heal so don't get your panties in a wad." She said. Then she tightened her hold on Alexanders shoulder so she could keep her balance then let go and pulled her hand back, quickly glancing at the person he was speaking too. @RegalWindstar @Cryobionic

 

[RegalWindstar]

Akira sighed sadly "Hopefully help will come we just have to last long enough. Whatever you do don't get Hurt Ase, I told Maria I'd bring you back alive."


She formed a bow out of crystals and aimed it at the hound "I don't fancy dieing, I doubt you do either so we'll have to work together. Even if I do not like you after what you and Excalibur have done to Oliver." she sent a small glare Ase's way before focusing on the hound "So temporary truce until we are all safe but after that you better stay away from my little brother."


@Mr Swiftshots

Alexander's eyes widened at how Raya reacted then he turned to Vincent "I don't know, Demonic?! I don't have nay clue how I could possibly describe it except its big had three heads, looks like a dog and looks like it came from hell! I wouldn't be surprised if it did!" he turned to Raya "Akira won't be able to escape, if things get bad she could die. Her wings..." He flopped back into a nearby chair his head in his hands "She won't be able to handle it with all the flying she's done trying to save everyone she can. Shes also was using her magic, for all I know she could be passed out right now. She just recovered recently from being sick from the huge energy drain from everything lately." Alexander stopped talking getting lost in his worry for Akira. There would be nothing else they could get out of him.

 

[Uasal]

"thats fine with me but if he's your brother doesn't that make your imp fetish into an insest fetish ?" Ase said quickly before dashing at the hound with full speed with a big grin on her face. she jumped up high into the air taking a swing at the dogs back while using her wing to gain altitude quickly after unsure if the attack landed or not.

 

[RegalWindstar]

Akira shot multiple Arrows at the hound's face to distract it so it wouldn't hurt Ase "Now I'm starting to think you like P***ing me off Ase!" she grinned slightly making a tree of crystals she climbed perching in for a better position. @Mr Swiftshots

 

[Cryobionic]

Oliver's yellow eyes shot open, and he wrenched himself away from Maria, landing on the dirty ground with a thump and a groan. He could tell, by the smell, that they were near the cafe, probably in the alleyway, really. The imp let out a strangled, halfhearted giggle to try and calm himself, and stop himself from shaking. It didn't work.


The beast had come out of nowhere, and while the imp was pretty used to dealing with the mindless hell hounds usually found guarding the gates of hell or running rampage through the dead forest, coming face to face with the alpha, had been quite something else.


Oliver felt a pull in his chest, signaling that his order wasn't quite complete yet, and he murmured a curse as he tried to stand. However, not matter how hard he tried to push against the ground, his muscles just wouldn't cooperate. He would feel his skin start to heat up either way, and he knew he didn't have long before he was forcefully wrenched away from the alleyway, and to the last remaining people of the group.


With a small, faint grin at the pink haired witch, he felt himself being whisked away.


This time, as he reappeared, still laying in the same position he had been in the alley, only... on nothing. He didn't waste any time with mindless chatter this time, though, as he could feel himself starting to fall, as well as hear and smell the hound behind him, and feel a wet liquid hit the back of his head. The imp shuddered. Drool.


With a swift motion, he grabbed onto both flying girls, the weight of his body sending them all spiraling towards the ground below. Oliver closed his eyes just as they were about to crash into the popcorn covered concrete, but of course, the pain didn't come as instead they all landed softly on the wooden flooring of Magic Brew Cafe, startling the occupants inside.


The imp let go of the women, his eyelids feeling surprisingly heavy, and curled up on the floor, the exhaustion of his overused core finally getting the better of him. He didn't even notice that the sleeves of his hoodie was in full flame as he fell asleep.

 

[Elfia Nightwing]

Ellie cried out in surprise as Ase, Akira, and Oliver popped into the room as Oliver's sleeves burned. "What the hell!?" she cried, putting out the fire on the imp, just as Maria entered the cafe running to Ase, hugging her tightly, "You're ok!" she cried happily."I'll repeat my question, what. Is.Going.On!?" Ellie cried, growing frustrated.

 

[RegalWindstar]

Akira's eyes widened as she tried to figure out what just happened the lack of energy making it hard for her brain to process it. Alexander stood up quickly and went over to Akira his arms surrounding her as he pulled her to his chest. Akira blushed and smiled her eyes starting to slightly close her wings ached and she felt hot. Alexander pulled away the slight movement stopping her from falling asleep he put his hand to her forehead and growled low at the heat radiating from her "You Idiot!" Akira flinched as "Alexander spoke "Do I have to keep you locked up in a cage like an actual bird? What the hell were you THINKING?!" Akira opened her mouth to reply but Alexander cut her off "No, I don't want to hear it, I don't care what your excuse is! You acted recklessly when you were just ill not long ago!" Akira looked down at the ground. Alexander sighed "How's your wings?"


Akira looked up her wings twitched and she winced in pain. Alexander sighed again he picked her up sitting her down on a nearby seat before doing the same for Oliver. "Thanks again Oliver." he whispered before going back over to Akira fussing over her "Really you are such an Idiot" he said fondly. Akira smiled at him and he smirked "You won't be smiling for long" he held up a small bottle of blue liquid and Akira cringed trying to escape when Alexander pulled her back as she stood onto his lap his one arm around her waist an eyebrow raised "Akira...." just her name made her freeze he popped open the bottle and put it to her lips. She gave him a glare but drank it spluttering and coughing after. Alexander chuckled "Serves you right." he teased.


Akira stuck her tongue out at him, he leaned her head against his chest shifting her so she was more comfortable on his lap as she dozed off.

One moment Serathi was shoulder deep in the bath, complacent beneath the waters while one hand drifted along the surface. The next she was suddenly before him, striking out and catching him tight about the throat. The pressure was enough to knock out any mortal as she squeezed his jugular, nails piercing through flesh from the intensity.


He winced visibly, grunting, though refrained from prying the fingers away. There had been a Hunter who had tried to do the same before after a faulty miscommunication and the demoness had practically torn his throat apart from the rest of his body.


"Darling," he crooned, and there was no emotional note to the endearment as Vahl smiled down at her, the expression tinged somewhat with madness, "I promised to take him out for a walk, nothing more. I have no control of that monster once he goes mad. " Tensing against the steel fingers, he began to push forward, using the weight of his body to force her arm backwards. His lips were by her ear as he spoke, blinking against the spots of light that were beginning to form, his voice warm and low, as if he were about to call her to bed. "Now," he began, whispering, "my suggestion to you is to let me go and fetch your Abaddon before he swallows that precious son of yours."


@Elfia Nightwing

 

[Uasal]

"what the !" Ase sighed as she rubbed her head which she had hit off the ground "what do you think your doing people are going to die oliver!"

 

[Elfia Nightwing]

Serathi glared at Vahl, letting go of her grip, pulling her blood coated fingers from his neck," One hour," she simply said," If you don't bring Abbadon back in one hour then don't came back at all," she said coldly, walking out of the bathroom.

 

[DestinyRed]

Raya squealed when she saw Oliver appear with Akira and another girl she hadn't met. It was getting crowded and the customers were a little flustered. She backed away and thought back to when she saw Jun stumble into the backroom and decided to retreat back there.


The teen backed away from the counter and retreated to the back room. Jun was collaosed on the bed and she raised her eyebrow, "Are you awake? And are you okay?" She asked quietly.


@thistle

 

[thistle]

"An hour," he murmured, watching as the young woman swept by, absolutely seething, "how kind of you." With ginger fingers, he touched the fresh bout of wounds, and peered at them with hooded, unreadable eyes before licking the tips clean."I guess this means no goodbye kiss."


- - -


Appearing within the vicinity of the fair once more, which was abandoned at this point, Vahl stepped before the towering giant and inspected Abaddon's current situation. Crystals were strewn across the monster's paws, the remnants of what ever had attacked him now obliterated into tiny, shining jewels. In addition to the wreckage, the park was also strewn in vines, thick wads of vegetation laying in blankets along the ground. He found Abaddon just a few yards from the field, the hound trying to snap at the collapsed ferris wheel that continued to roll in a lazy circle.


The monster had somehow been contained while he was gone, bordered by a set of dark, vein like walls that forced Abaddon into submission. Vahl realized it was the vines from before. The two heads that remained free were tearing into the bramble, desperate to get out, while the third remained restrained from moving. It had seemed to veer away just as the vines had crawled upward, ensnaring the last head.


With a lengthy sigh, the wisp floated upward while condensing his power and stopped before the trapped head. Its eyes burned with contempt but as light eased from the wisp, the eye drooped. Its monstrous girth and voracious temper made Abaddon quite a nightmare when it came to the battlefield but the heads never worked in sync with one another. Madness orchestrated each limb as if they were separate beings - one mind could easily be distracted while the other two wrecked havoc.


Regardless, if one found something of interest it would encourage the other two to look as well. Vahl found himself in this very predicament as he lulled the first head into a daze, drifting over and catching the attention of the next to do the same. The last was accomplished as well though he had to avoid the sharp, pearly whites that snatched at him in the air. Now in a stupor and acting as one, the body gave a great, violent shudder and the wall of earth crashed around it, soil and dirt heaving to the ground as Vahl, gliding silently coaxed Abaddon back into his lair.


 
Dimly he sensed another in the room, and Jun peeked open an eye to notice Raya lingering in the doorway. Aside from her pale complexion and grass stained clothing, she appeared to have escaped, unscathed, for the most part. Or so he thought, not realizing he had missed her earlier collapse just outside the cafe.


"Cold," he breathed, sitting up and clutching the blankets around him, "it's so cold right now." Whatever sensation he had experienced earlier had now dulled, though it felt like the warmth of his body was still slipping from him, trickling from his fingertips and toes in pulsing waves. Jun buried deeper within himself, trying to seek whatever heat possible, and found it nonexistent.


As if aware of his weakened state, visions started to flicker in the back of his mind, and he gasped sharply, the shade cowered further. "No..." he mumbled, "No, go away. Not now."


@DestinyRed

 

[DestinyRed]

Raya didn't like seeing people uncomfortable so seeing her friends uncomfortable was the very essence of unsettling. It was so odd... she assumed something happened to Jun and quietly snuck over when he complained about being cold and placed her hand on his shoulder, pulling out whatever energy she had left to try and warm him up. It wasn't much and it left her with a dizzy spell but she still tried. She scowled as he told her to go away but listened, "Well I'm going to go annoy Akira then... Hollar if you need something." She said then walked out the door. She snuck into the cafe then walked over to Akira, "Thanks for pulling me out back there. Granted you an idiot... but thanks." She said with a smile.
