Futuristic Those That are Hunted

[Verena]

When Kytha screams and steps in front of him, shielding Hayden and blocking his way, he digs his hind legs into the ground and stops in front of her, throwing a little bit of dust in the air around them. He snarls while hearing out what she had to tell him, the hairs on his back standing up as if he was being electrocuted. He didn't want to fight Kytha. She would be captured and sued for her action, along with Toron - the agent gone rogue. But he and Hayden had another matters to tend to. Vulcan wasn't following the orders of the agency's head chief - a simple mortal. He was following the orders of something, feared even by the Gods themselves. He ignores what Xander and Amelie say and launches at Hayden again the moment Kytha turns to the dog and Toron.

"Vulcan you fool!" Amelie faced her palm at him and shot ice at him as her wolf went to shove Hayden aside. A worried expression was on her face. If he killed Hayden there was nothing she could do to stop the chief from imprisoning him for going against a direct order.

 

[Verena]

(ice needles, ice snow? what do you send at me?)

 

[Ch3rryBlossom28]

(Ice snow? Amelie has never shot snow before. Needles. Sorry should have specified that)

Kythas head swirls around to see Vulcan charging again. Her dragon shoots away from her towards him and flies into his face breathing little fireballs at him. Ky becomes wolf and charges Vulcan throwing him to the ground. "VULCAN ENOUGH!" We don't want to fight you! Just let us be taken in. Your so desperate to kill Hayden but for what? What will you receive as a reward? Is it really worth killing him if you will be sent to your death too by disobeying orders?" She snarls staring him straight in the eye. 'Who will let up first?'

 

[Verena]

Vulcan wasn't expecting Amelie to attack him, neither did he see the ice flying towards him. One of the orbs catches one of the needles and the two shatter in a mixture of ice shards and red mist. Another one burrows in his hind leg. It causes him to yelp from the sudden cold pain and bump into Amelie's ice wolf, which was pushing Hayden aside. On top of that the small dragons fire had burnt his fur and the stench of burned hair was in his nose. The two wolves roll in the dirt and Vulcan immediately tries to get back on his feet, trembling as his wounded leg refuses to move. In that very moment Kytha pushes him to the ground, growling in his face. He stares back, snarling aggressively. He didn't know what to tell her. He knew why he had to kill Hayden but he didn't know why Death had chosen him from all the people in the world. Why was he so special? He bites at her muzzle, trying to get away from her grip and overpower her.

 

[Ch3rryBlossom28]

Amelie winced at his cries. She didn't want to hurt him but her top priority was to bring Hayden back. Alive. Her wolf didn't cry out as it it got hit. It took it a moment before it could get back up but by then Kytha had already tackled Vulcan. Amelie inwardly cursed. This was not what she wanted to happen. Her phone started to ring. ~Who the hell could that be?~ She let it go to voice mail before it went off again. ~ It better be important.~ She answered the phone without looking at who it was. "WHAT?!" "Amelie it's Alec." At that she calmed a little. "I'm a little preoccupied at the moment. Can this wait?"


Alec's breathing got harder like he was in pain. "Is something wrong?" Her voice was worried. "What the hell is going on over there?*pause* The spirits are acting up." She heard a crash. "Alec!" It was only a short moment but felt like forever before Alec started talking again. "Ams. Vulcan shouldn't be able to do what he does. I don't care if Death is responsible for it. All I know is it hurts Amelie. I feel it every time, I'm assuming, he uses a big burst of his gifts Death gave him. Just get him to stop." At that the line went dead. Amelie was angry that this new gift that Vulcan had hurt her brother in such a way. And why hadn't he told her sooner? They needed to finish this fight and now.

Piper chose this moment to step forward as she shifted into a gryphon, half lion half eagle. Shrieking at the pair fighting, Piper rushed forward as she headbutted Kytha off of Vulcan before she turned to face him. Wasting no time, Piper immediately leaped on top of Vulcan and put one of her front claws on Vulcan's neck to hold him down along with her body weight. Narrowing her eyes at Vulcan, Piper said, "I'm not bound by your agent protocols. If you want to kill this Hayden guy so badly, let me do it."

 

[Verena]

Before Vulcan could sink his teeth into Kytha and throw her away from himself in order to get back up she was pushed aside and he was held down again by Piper's sharp eagle claws. He coughed weakly as her weight was pushing onto his throat and hindering him from breathing. She was only slightly bigger than him and he could probably overpower her if it wasn't for his wounded leg and the position he was in. His front paws scratch at her leg, trying to get her off of him, his hind limbs rendered useless by the ice shard still sticking out of his thigh.

 

[Lioness075]

Piper let go of Vulcan's neck so he could respond, but remained on top of him in case he fought back. Keeping her gaze on him, Piper repeated herself, "I won't get in that much trouble for ending Hayden's life. You will. Let me deal with him for you." She then used one of her claws to hold Vulcan's front paws together to keep him from scratching her further. Her other leg now had several wounds on it, a bit of blood trickling down it. Piper ignored the pain though, as she had more important matters to deal with.

 

[Verena]

As Piper let go of him he cleared his throat and was about to answer to her question but then felt someone's presence near him. Something's. "I don't want to do this any longer!" he yowled and shook his torso and head as best he could, trying to cool down the glow of the muster and let it disappear. It managed to fade a little but that was all. He turned his head and looked away from Piper and instead towards the trees where a large raven was sitting in the branches, staring down at him, surrounded by black mist. "Let me go, damn you! I am not your servant! I never asked for any of this! You never gave me a choice! I'm begging you, let me go!" he winced at it. Perhaps he looked completely insane doing this but he wasn't. He was simply tired of losing control, every single time the muster glowed up his own actions became limited. Every time the muster glowed up strings were being attached to his body as if to a wooden toy. Suddenly a dark voice echoes in his head and makes him tremble. "You were given a choice. And you accepted it. Your life for your freedom." A picture appears before his eyes, showing him the alley, his young self cowering in the snow, desperately trying to warm himself, a shadowy figure standing before him giving him his skeletal hand. "I was five years old! How can you have expected me to make that choice?!" he roared angrily at him. "Yes, perhaps I wasn't quite specific in my requirement. It was the day Hayden was brought to this world. I guided you through all these years to end the Pierce bloodline once he was at the age of 21, symbolizing great wickedness of rebellion and sin." The raven spreads his wings and the muster glows up again brighter. "No... NO, DAMN YOU!" Vulcan protested and arched his back, biting his front paws and leaving large wounds, rendering himself completely unable to stand up before the Grim Reaper could take control again. "You never were much of a thinker. You are useless and weak. I deprive you of this gift you so willingly reject. I will find a more suitable assassin for this job." he hissed at his wolf servant and flaps his wings, cawing and disappearing in a cloud of black mist. The muster fades away and the few soul orbs that were dancing around him shatter. Vulcan couldn't believe his ears, nor his eyes. For the first time in 21 years he was free and it felt good. He was a human being, an actual living human being. Well, still a gifted but mortal nevertheless. "Thank you." he whispered and let his head fall back, fainting from the sudden exhaustion and blood loss.


 
(no more OPness. Hurrah!!!)

Kytha was angered at what piper did. But as she rolled off, she was rolled towards Amelie. Who seemed to be on the phone, and caught a bit of her conversation with what she could decifer as a male. All she caught was Vulcan, Death, and just make him stop. At that she turned dragon and roared hoping to grab everyone's attention. "EVERYONE STOP!" She snarled out. Her eyes moving from each person. "Become human." She snarled at Vulcan and piper. Then became human herself. "I personally have had enough of this fighting. Vulcan. You need to see that this isn't who you are. Piper, you must have a reason for wanting to help them and I'm sorry for threatening you. Multiple times. And I'm sorry for Hayden's threat. It had just been a long day. Amelie. I'm sorry for hating you because Vulcan likes you. I was just jealous. And scared. Hayden, toron, I'm sorry for being a horrible leader and friend. Everything was new to me. I tried. But I'm sorry to all of you. I still don't regret trying to rebel but I do regret everything else. I'm done fighting. Just take us in." A tear formed at the corner of her eye and she sighed deeply. She walked back to her group and hugged toron. "I'm sorry for being lowsy."


 
Kytha was shocked at what Vulcan seemed to be doing but kept quiet waiting for everyone's response. 'Im sorry'

 

[Ch3rryBlossom28]

"Don't get me wrong Kytha, you will always be my enemy, in more ways than one, but I will admit when someone is a good opponent. You managed to stay away form us this long and not many can." She walked over to her. Metal cuffs could only do so much to contain a gifted so she usually used her gift. Though since either used a lot to make her ice so strong she can't be using it for anything else. Her wolf shattered and her armor melted away as well Anda the shard that was in Vulcan's leg. She gave him an apologetic look. Since Kytha was a shifter she was going to use special cuffs that stay on them no matter what form the switch into. Amelie pulled out a tiny circular gadget. She pulled Kytha's hand behind her back and placed the gadget on her wrist pressing a button. It opened and cuff in circled her wirsts. After she walked to Hayden and cautiously pulled his hands behind his back. "This is going to be cold for a few minutes but you will get over it." Ice started to form over his wrists and and completely over his hands. It's was thick to where he wouldn't be able to break them. She went to Toron and did the same but his wasn't as strong at all.

//Wow I was gone for a while. Recap?//

 

[Ch3rryBlossom28]

(basically Vulcan tried attacking Hayden again but we stopped him. Death came and took Vulcan's gift away that he gave him and the rebels surrendered.)

 

[Marvinok]

//Alright great.//


Damion watched the scene from the shadows, surveying. He figured out most of their styles pretty quickly. He stepped out from the shadows, and saw Vulcan's gift be removed by Death himself. Damion did not leave the shadows, he remained undetected. He was going to wait.


//Homework and school tomorrow. Sorry.//

 

[Lioness075]

Piper didn't bother turning human as she narrowed her eyes at Kytha. The girl still irritated Piper and she was most certainly not about to follow her orders or demands. Huffing at the girl and puffing out her chest a bit, Piper stalked away a few feet before stopping and facing the agents. Seeing that the rebels were all captured now, Piper asked them, "So, are we done here? If so, then I'll be taking my leave."


Xander stood ready to help if need be with the rebels, but it seemed that it was over now. As he listened to what Piper said, Xander frowned slightly, wondering if it was really such a good idea to let such a powerful gifted just walk away like this. He glanced between Vulcan and Amelie as he silently asked them what they should do. Personally, Xander felt like they really couldn't let Piper leave. I mean, for crying out loud, she could turn into a massive, fire-breathing dragon. On top of that, she seemed capable of shifting into mythical creatures, which was highly dangerous in itself on top of the whole dragon thing.

 

[Verena]

Vulcan was rudely woken up again by the ice shard sticking from his thigh shattering. He breathed sharply in, turned human again and pushed himself up to a sitting position, looking over the damage he had taken. His leg was bleeding heavily, his forehead was stinging from the minor burns caused by the fire of the small dragon Kytha had summoned, his arms were ripped and bleeding from him hurting himself as to not be able to stand up and fight. His wounds would need cleaning and stitching and quite soon. Vulcan stood up on his feet, wincing and cursing, holding onto his leg to stop the bleeding as best he could. He looked around, noticing the rebels were captured and cuffed. He half limped, half hopped on one leg to Amelie and stood by her side. "Thank you for stopping me." he told her and turned towards Piper as she spoke, intending to leave them again and get back to her former life. He noticed Xander's confusion and looked sternly at him. "Do you truly believe that we could contain her, stop her from leaving? We have the rebels - the thing we have come here for. She hasn't caused any trouble before, now has she. I don't believe there are any records of dragons in the agency database." Then he turned towards Piper again. "That was our agreement. You help us capture the rebels and then you are either free to go or join us. I see you have made your choice. It has been a pleasure knowing and working with you. If you ever decide to change your mind, you know where to find us."

 

[Ch3rryBlossom28]

"I'm sorry. I just couldn't let you kill Hayden. And i would patch you up but the cuffs take a lot to keep on." She wanted to touch him. Hold his hand or something but was afraid of hurting him so she refrained from doing so. She turned to watch piper leave. They may not have the info yet but Amelie was still debated if she wanted to give the agency that info. "We I'll let her go but she can only hide for so log till someone gets sent to go after her. I would get out of here as fast as you can. Transportation will be here soon." She clicked a button on her watch and it start blinking red. It would send a signal to HQ and give them their location sending a helicopter.

 

[Verena]

Vulcan moved a step away from her. He didn't want to make her new dress all dirty. She had managed to keep it clean and intact, in comparison to him, whole outfit didn't last a day. She also looked so beautiful in it. Blood was running down his leg and arms, dripping from his fingers and leaving a trail of small puddles wherever he had gone. "It's just a flesh wound. Don't worry about me, I've been through much worse. Besides, I fully deserved it." He looked towards Xander and cracked a smile. He knew too well that he was falling for Piper and seeing her go, becoming the enemy once more, must have been a hit for him. "You surely know how to pick them." he limped to him. "You know, if you ever feel lonely I still know I few pretty girls to hang you up with." he whispered. He wasn't too keen to getting another ice shard from his girlfriend. "Now where did that Damion guy go?" he looked around. He couldn't see him but he could smell that he was quite nearby.

 

[Marvinok]

Damion stepped out of the shadows at the mention of his name. He glanced around to make sure no one would hurt him. He looked back at Vulcan and said,


"Right here Vulcan."
