Nadine fought back tears and a powerful urge to throw up, her hands shaking as she rose them again readily. It was so realistic, but still she knew that it wasn't - couldn't be real. Raidou was dead. Charmagne was...dead. This was all a horrible, horrible illusion.

This...this isn't REAL! Nadine screamed, the sound coming both out of her mouth and from her mind in a huge shout, and she raised both arms in a spur of the moment, a huge surge of power coming out of seemingly nowhere and channeling itself through her, hitting everything in the room and exploding them similarly to the chair.

((Not sure whether to RP the impact on her yet - it isn't real, after all. And it may/may not affect the schoolhouse itself, so i'll wait for Insho. ^^))

"Um...Nice to meet you," Walt said dorkily, staring at the scene before him. He had the urge to "play" with the soldiers, but decided against it. He was there to save Zachary Addams, and his time was running short as it was. He walked over to the adult by the schoolyard, having a feeling this was the guy who was talking earlier. "You're Zachary Addams, right?"

((I find it pretty amazing that we've led this sucker on for over 3200 posts. That makes us the second longest (active) thread in the General RP Board.
Given, probably 1/8th of them are OOC only posts, but still, for a good majority of this, it has only been us 5 sticking with this RP. We've made a LOT of posts for so few people.))


He stood with his back against the schoolhouse wall, resting in the shade. He snapped his eyes open upon Walt's approach, blinking to the light as he stepped out to meet Walt. He was completely identical to Adam, save that he was free of the emotional continence that plagued his expressions.
"Well, hello, good sir." He said. "I am he. Who would you be to ask of me?"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

There was no banter, laughing, or sneer. One second, she was gesturing, and then the next, the Nadine mimic lashed out at Flux, the dagger swiping through the air with savage ferocity.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Unable to withstand the intensity of the heat, the room-- walls, furniture, and mangled figures all --disintegrated. Nothing was left except endless black void.
And Charmagne.

Her clothes were ablaze, burning slowly, but she was untouched by the infernos. It was like she wore a dress of fire, the dancing flames illuminating the dark.
"Why...? Why would you...? Don't you love me anymore?" She said pleadingly. Hidden beneath the flames clothing her body, something moved. "First you abandon us to Daddy, and now you try send us away again like ashes in the wind? I-I can't believe you Nadine... how could you be so cruel? Did gaining those ugly, hateful wings mean sacrificing your love and heart... angel?"

((Wow 3200 already?))

Saile spun around and saw Nadine swinging wildly, hecaught Nadine's hand before it hit Flux.
She may have been moving fast but Saile's reaction time was much better in the dark.
Nadine, I suggest if you feel like killing someone you kill Mr Armor out there.

Saile slapped her, trying to get her to regain her composure.

Nadine was thrust to her knees by the force of her own explosions, looking up at the all too realistic face of her little sister. The shift in Charmagne's tone at the end of her sentence was enough to remind her that this wasn't real. But her words... they hurt. True, Nadine had run after their deaths, but she should have avenged them there and then. Now they were avenged, and Mark was a demon.

Despite herself, Nadine found it necessary to keep speaking to the girl. I couldn't have done anything, she said, voice as calm as she could make it. You're dead. And I'm the angel of revenge. I've already avenged you!

Flux slammed the pipe he held into the look-alike, sending it back a couple of metres. "Saile! That's quite damn obviously not Nadine! She tried to kill me!" Flux shouted incredulously, gobsmacked that Saile hadn't caught on.
Flux remembered another video game trick, and attempted to apparate it. "Uh, Firaja? No, too splash-damagey! Bizzara? Way too weak!" Flux tried to think of a suitable spell. "Ah! Seraphic Star!"
Five basketball-sized, blue orbs swirled around Nadine, before converging into a blinding blue explosion of energy.
"D...did it work?" Flux queried, looking up.

"I am Walt Biggerstaff, Sir," Walt answered, wondering if his name would ring any bells. "And right now, I am trying to save your life." ((Short post. BLARGH! Yeah. I think we're only second to the C-R family tree. ^_^))

The Nadine-mimic was standing right where the attack had left her. There wasn't a scratch on her body, and a smile crept across her face. Stepping to the side, she left an afterimage on the spot. It quickly solidified into a physical body.

The two Nadine mimics glanced at each other with wicked grins. One lifted itself off the ground and flew at Flux, dagger in hand. The second started to gingerly stroll toward Saile, seductively (almost mockingly) flaunting herself with each step.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I am dead. Mommy, my sisters and me, and Dad..." Charmagne said. Tears were rolling down her face, but evaporated before they could fall onto her blazing garb. "But haven't you thought for a single second that we didn't want you to 'avenge us'!?"

Charmagne drifted toward Nadine. "It's... it's not right! This wasn't supposed to happen this way!! You shouldn't have... have turned yourself into this MONSTER.... What happened to the Nadine that I knew?"

The burning dress was giving way, finally starting to turn to ash. The movement on her chest was present again, billowing the blazing cloth. She outstretched her arms as she got closer, and angrily scowled. "Revenge isn't right! How do you expect us to rest peacefully, knowing that you couldn't-- that you still CAN'T --move on, yourself!? What about forgiveness, what about love??"

"Can't you see that everything that has happened is your fault!? It's because of you he killed us, and because of you that he became a true demon. You call yourself an angel, but everything your touch turns to ash--"

"Sister, what did you do to yourself!?!"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Walt Biggerstaff, hmm?" Zachery said. "That's a good name, easy to remember. It's nice to meet you. Although, I think you may be confused."

He put a hand on Walt's shoulder, and gave a friendly smile. "I'm perfectly fine. I am not the one in need of rescue by a knight in shining armor."

The bell at the top of the schoolhouse began to ring, and the children stopped playing and ran inside. "Forgive me if I am being too presumptuous, but if that is all there is between us, I don't have anything left to say. If you will excuse me, my wife will need help with the children. They always get a bit too wound up after recess."

Without a word more, Zachery passed Walt, and went for the front door to the school. When he opened the door, the excited chatter of children wafted out, as well as the faint voice of a woman in song.

"..." Okay, what the heck is going on here? His mind seems to have reverted to the past for some reason. Hm...Maybe he can't face recent events? He might not need help now, but maybe he will...No one can escape forever. Walt sighed.
"Is your wife named Eve?" he asked, although he was sure if Eve was his wife, she would be called something else, like Zachary Addams being called Adam. He decided to follow after the man, just to see what would happen.

"Evie." He corrected, pausing at the door. "...it would be rude of me to turn away a stranger, especially one who seems to bear no ill will. Would you be interested in sitting in on our class today? Just promise to stay quiet and not distract the students."

He turned to the side and held the door open for Walt. Inside was an old fashioned schoolhouse: children from first to sixth grade were all sitting in wooden desks, and a chalkboard resided at the far end of the room, past the teacher's desk. A woman was singing a cheery, melodious tune, speaking words not quiet distinguishable. She wore a modest white dress, par for being a teacher, and held her brunette hair in a bun.

A thin piece of cloth was conspicuously wrapped around her head, but was obscured from beyond just the knot, as her back was turned to the class. Her focus was on the blackboard, writing the names of the day's assignments.

Heh...

Saile grabbed the hilt of his sword and shifted his weight to his front leg.

Your little trick may work on lesser people, but I'm a little beyond that.

Saile licked his lips.

I am, deception, I am, darkness. I are BABOON!

The words were wrong, far too sophisticated vocabulary for the age of Charmagne, but nonetheless, they were...true. Nadine stayed where she was backed against the wall at this realisation. Mark's demon status had only come as a result between choosing her family or Saile. She felt her stomach sinking before spotting a weak glimmer of a loophole.

I had no choice but to avenge you! It was either turn Mark into a demon or Adam. Mark or a trained soldier. It makes SENSE for me to have chosen him!

"Does it? Adam has been prepared to die in every mission he takes. It is something I can hardly understand... but he has wished to die for a very long time. You may have even seen him undergoing the '5 stages of Death'."
Charmagne stopped just in front of Nadine.
"Think about this: What would have happened if he was the sacrifice for your lover's life? Do you suppose that he, a man so clearly built of honor and morals, would have subjected himself willingly to the same fate your father did? Have you not thought of the hypothetical situation that, in fact, Mark's descent was all because of your actions? From your argument that let you run from the house and spur him to slay his family, to your selection and damnation of his supposed soul."

Charmagne stopped abruptly, and clutched her head in pain. "This is what I meant! You are my sister, what right did you have to play God!?"
Her dress fell away as embers, revealing her small slender form. From her chest down to her navel, a large red eye was vertically situated upon her, staring straight into Nadine.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

The Nadine-mimic stopped and smiled, giving a seductive wave to Saile. Or, past...

An arm draped around Saile's shoulder, and Nadine's visage rested upon his other. Emerging from one of the red eyes that lined the room's interior, like an insect coming forth from it's chrysalis, another mimic was partially emerged from the wall behind her, the lower half of her legs still within.

Nadine could only watch as the figure of Charmagne crumbled even that weak loophole. Her voice had changed from that of her little sister, almost making her words easier to listen to before she reverted back. Nadine's wings flared outwards as she flattened herself against the wall as the huge red eye within Charmagne revealed itself.

You are NOT my sister. Her voice was shaky, but moderately calm otherwise. You're an illusion. The real Charmagne would SUPPORT this. She always knew that I loved her, wanted the best for her... Nadine swallowed. She was almost trying to convince herself as well as the illusion before her. You aren't Charmagne. So just REVEAL yourself!

Saile knew he couldn't hit Nadine, even a false image of her.
.... Saile mumbled something under his breath.

The other Nadine rested her head on Saile's shoulder, even the real Nadine had never been this close.
Saile wanted to turn his head, to share his feelings with Nadine in the purest form.
But he knew it wasn't her.

A spark in his mind, a memory mishapen.

Saile closed his eyes, knowing that he could fight this figure if he think it was shapped like her.

It's not like she has her voice right?

((Ach, ya posted right as I was trying to, DoMaya. Sorta makes this a bit awkward, considering... ^^;))

"...hmhmhm... would you like me to say 'oh, you got me?' The truth hurts, doesn't it?" Her features started to melt away, becoming a viscous shadow. "It's true, isn't it, though? You didn't feel an ounce of remorse for damning him did you? You may be right about your sister loving you, but even you can't be so foolish as to believe that she was as gun-ho as you were for some petty revenge."

Wings flared out, and the shadow took solid form. Saile stood before Nadine, with a menacing sneer.
"You can't lie to me. You didn't end him for justice sake, you did it out of hatred. And I should know."

His arm shifted into the shape of a blade, and he held it out to his side. "This is what it must come down to. There can only be one Angel of Hatred. You know how this must end, Nadine."

Those horrible words coming from Saile's mouth just sounded so...wrong. However confused she was about her feelings, the fact still stood that she did love him. And she couldn't attack that face. Nadine took a step forward, away from her pathetic flattening against the wall.

You're not Saile either, she said, although somewhat hesitant. Saile's outside. Protecting the others. She hoped desperately that it wouldn't come to a fight, her eyes flicking to the all too familiar blade in 'Saile's hand.

((Wow. You dudes move fast. Lol.))

"Yeah. That sounds...fun," Walt said. School? Seriously? He hadn't been in one in ages. It was easy for him to forget that he had only just graduated high school when he was made to fight in the war. It seemed about a lifetime ago. "Thank you." He walked into the classroom and sat down in the nearest unoccupied seat, not unable to stop staring at Evie. She seemed so...peaceful and happy. Then the images Eve showed him entered his head and he felt squeamish. Could that be what changed everything? Would that happen next in Zachary's mind?

Flux's face was grim. He could see that Saile didn't have the will power to hurt these mimics. "But I do." Flux murmured.
"FIRA!" he exclaimed. A ray of fire shot towards the false images and split into as many beams as there were copies. The impact would knock them back. Enough to stun them, for just a second albeit, but a second was all he needed.
"Hey! Don't you forget about me! Knight's Arrow!"
As the words escaped from his mouth, energy-bolt arrows flew out of a dark hole in front of him. They chased the mimics before freezing around them. All of them. All around them. They were trapped.
Flux smiled. "I'd suggest you didn't move. Otherwise all these arrows detonate. Explodily." Flux frowned. "No. No. That's not Earth:\English. Definitely not. Now, where is your commander!" The frustrated boy demanded. "Worst. Thirteenth. Birthday. Ever" He muttered under his own breath.

Kaamos walked alone in the dimension between mirrors, his own private portraits of despair.
He looked at all of them at once, seeing the sullen looks of those who had survived the end.
He frosts some of the mirrors, knowing some people should never look into the dimension of despair.
Kaamos had left Sancer in the protection of his castle; he had a mission he needed to finish.

He finds a mirror close enough to his destination and slides his hand out;
A woman who had just decided that life without her unborn child was too cold to endure sat there,
Arms long since shredded in an attempt to take her own life.

Her eyes are dull, she is close enough to death to feel the angel, but not see him.

"Who's there?" she whispers, trying to get up.

He shakes his head, snow falling from the long hairs of his mane. ((I like referring to him as a lion))


He walks out of the house, closing and locking the doors without touching them, he can see the echoes of those who had gone in similar ways in the same house.

A history of despair in that house, but what house does not have its own secrets?







When they find the woman’s body in her bathroom, they find that her eyes were closed and a smile on her face.
Her arms folded in the position of cradling a baby.
But the biggest mystery was the frosted mirror bearing the message, "Peace" and the snowflakes that remained frozen on her cold body.

"I am right here, in these ruins. And I am doing what must be done-- facing you." 'Saile' said. "Or do you need me to 'prove' to you my authenticity, as your dying wish?"

"When we first met, I told you my name and moniker, and offered to assist our friend... Hubris. You chastised me for my methods, and then stole his mirror shortly thereafter." He walked over to the side causally, swinging his bladed-arm back and forth at his side. "I wonder, do you still harbor some of the same animosity for him as you did back when we all met?"

Abruptly, he spun around, the blade aimed for Nadine's neck.

-------------------------------------------------------------

A brief pause, before all the entrapping arrows detonated, just like Flux had warned. Each mimic let out a short cry, almost exactly like Nadine's voice, before disappearing.

There was no time for rest, as new copies started to crawl their way out of the wall eyes. Three more, each climbing from the floor this time, started to drag themselves up.

-------------------------------------------------------------

"Welcome back class," Were her first words. The clarity of her voice was pristine, as if she was speaking right into your ear.

Evie turned around and for the first time, revealed the bandage-cloth covering her eyes. Red splotches dotted where the eyes were.

"I hope you enjoyed your break.Today, we are going to do a quick review on recent events." She said. She called out to one of the students, but her words were muted. Without hesitation, one of the students stood up in their chair-- a young girl of about 9 --and began speaking.

"The recent occupation of sections of Western Europe by German armies have been cause for alarm for most of the United Kingdom." The girl said. "With the Axis-powers advancing, all territories have become targets for the expanding regime. ...This would mean that Zachery will have to fight again, won't it?"

The entire class turned in their seats to face the back of the room, looking at, not Zachery, but Walt with questioning eyes.

((That inspired me to look back on when I first joined and maaaan, my RPing was terrible. xD Shows how far I've come, I guess.))

Despite her best efforts, the fake Saile's words rung true, and a trickle of doubt seeped its way into Nadine's mind. That trickle of doubt was a trickle too much - enough to make her even less willing to attack this person. But his voice was...different. It was more of a mind voice than his actual, physical, layered voice. And that was enough to keep her mind from tricking her into thinking it was Saile.

As she saw his blade slice through the air in her direction, her instinctual reaction was to reach out to her teleportation ability to escape. A blunt resistance met her attempts, and a sharp jab of pain greeted her mind as she reached for the ability. Remembering too late that teleportation had been deemed an impossibility, Nadine darted to the side. The time taken for her to think her way out of teleporting had paid its toll; the blade cut a deep gash along her arm and she gasped with pain, staggering to a stop and clutching the arm with the other hand.

This wasn't real. She wasn't at her house, and this 'Saile' wasn't real. So why did the wound hurt? She felt an automatic sense of...betrayal that Saile had hurt her, even though it wasn't him. Even though it was a very, very convincing copy of him. Sai...No, I don't, she said, cutting off what she had been about to call him and distracting herself by answering his question.

He...I had only just...left home, she worded lamely. She paused, taking her hand from the gash in her arm and wiping it on her jeans before replacing it with a wince. Sure, Hubris can be annoying, but he's a good person. He's my friend. Her eyes stayed warily on the Saile copy, and Nadine wondered just what the puppeteer's plan was. If this was all fake, she couldn't be killed. ...Right?

((That's got to be the first decent sized post I've done in a while. I've got to get back into this frame of mind. ^^))

Walt was nodding as the girl talked of the Axis powers advancing. So, in this man's mind, this was during the war, but before he had to fight in it. Hm...Then, the class all turned to him, staring at him with questioning eyes as the student asked if that meant Zachery would have to fight again. Walt froze for a moment, not sure what to tell them. He slowly nodded.

"The army needs all the help it can get," he answered, glancing at Zachery. What did the student mean by "again"? "However, he still has the option of not fighting...for now." He knew what was going to happen next. In order to win the war, a draft would be established. But he wasn't sure if it was already being enforced in Zachery's mind.

The crack of a ruler smacked on a desk. broke the silence.
"Incorrect. You haven't done your studying, have you?" It was Evie's voice, but she hadn't said it. In fact, it had come from the ceiling.

High above the classroom, much higher than the building had appeared outside, was what seemed to be a mirror. What was in the reflection was the only feature that made the glassy surface's purpose dubious.

It was the classroom, but it wasn't the same. Bodies, of the soldiers outside and of the children, were scattered like dolls all along a bloodstained floor. The sun did not shine in this image did not reach into the depths of this variant-room, and shadows prevailed. Walt's image was not shown in the image, but a fully outfitted Zachery was, parallel to the same position by the door the 'real' Zachery stood.

Evie was also there, behind the desk. Huddled on the floor, clutching something that glinted silver and red in one hand, and the offending ruler in the other. She gazed up (or, depending on perspectives, 'below') at Walt from where she lay, empty eye sockets staring just as intently as the absent eyeballs would have.

"Zachery was a comms officer." The reverse-Evie said from above. "He shouldn't be fighting in the field. Pay attention in class next time, trick questions are par for the course."

"Lets move on, shall we?" The teacher-Evie said.

---------------------------------------------------------

"Well, I'm sure he'd be glad to hear that... I bet that hurts, doesn't it?" He said. He started to pace again. "That blood... the shade reminds me of the wine we shared with that mysterious man a little while back. Back at the house ruins, that I conjured."

With his free hand, he tossed down a small pen to the ground. "Ran out of ink a while back. Shame, it was pretty valuable."

Again, he sprung at Nadine, the blade outstretched to impale her.

The way he spoke wasn't Saile either, Nadine realised. Yes, he seemed to have Saile's memories, but the way he spoke was too...formal? She couldn't quite pinpoint exactly what was off, but it wasn't him. It seemed that the benefits of loving someone were that you knew them well enough to spot differences. This Saile's expression was strange too - oddly...unexpressive.

Moving quickly out of the way of the blade again, Nadine thanked whatever deity there was for her nimbleness as compared to a man. Or angel, as it were. Spinning around, she let go of her arm to grab her dagger, trying her best to ignore the throbbing pain whenever she moved. Raising it, she braced her feet against the all too familiar ground.

No really, what do you want? she said, her voice hardened. This charade is...stupid. ...Apart from the fact that it made her reluctant to attack.

"Incorrect. You haven't done your studying, have you?"
S-studying? What studying? Walt thought, looking up to the sky to see the "mirror." He paled and trembled slightly as he saw all the dead bodies on the blood-stained floor. Look away. Look away. LOOK AWAY! he thought, but he couldn't look away. Okay, don't look away. Just close your eyes! Do something!
"Zachery was a comms officer. He shouldn't be fighting in the field. Pay attention in class next time. Trick questions are par for the course."
"Wow...This is one messed up mind..." Walt said weakly, finally able to tear his gaze away from the "mirror" and look at teacher-Evie.
"Let's move on, shall we?" He looked over at Zachery. This was to save him. He couldn't wimp out. He looked Evie right into her eye sockets and said, "Yes. Let's."

Saile heard the false Nadine's voice and opened his eyes.

That's her voice... he said, watching more of them crawl out of the floor.

He was unaware of what to do, but one thing he did notice were the eyes that were inside the walls of the room.
He stabbed blindly behind him, trying to hit an eye.

((For easier identification's sake, the Evie above gets special colored text.))
Bandaged eyes or not, teacher-Evie gazed across the classroom before walking out from behind her desk. The image above followed suit, crawling out from behind the desk. Mirrored paths, separate means of action.

"Now class," She started. "Our next topic is historical events. Why don't I pick..."
Again, her mouth moved, but the words were muffled to near silence. Again, a student responded, standing up. This time, a 13 year boy.

"Ma'am, a few years after the end of World War II, an unknown government approached Mr. Zachery." The boy said. He had a thick accent to his voice. "Um... Ma'am, what was the topic again? It was a large chapter..."
"The chapter assignment was focused on the 'shadow' government that covertly played a part in both world wars as well as contacted Mr. Zachery. Honestly... ..., you didn't read it, did you?"
"N-no Ma'am."
"*sigh* See me after class then. Well, while we are on the subject, does anybody have any questions about the reading assignment?"

-------------------------------------------------------------------

The eyes avoided the blade as best they could, closing and sinking back into the wall when the blade came nearby. They were slow to return, but would eventually resurface. The one continual fact was that only the ones directly in where the blade would strike would sink away, while all others remained gazing .

By now, two of the three copies had fully emerged, and were giving aid to the third.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

'...Operations unable to reach intended path. Altering strategy....
Analyzing data collected...
Reassessing situation. Processing likelihood of success...
Acceptability understood. Lack of 'complete success' accepted for probable delay in light of timelimit constraints.
Initiating process alteration....'



The copy-Saile looked downward, at his feet, scrunching his face up as if he were looking at a particularly offensive picture.
"You want the truth, Nadine?" He said, his voice wavering with... rage? Sadness? "I wanted this to end in disbelief, with one of us finishing the other as painlessly as I could, without you knowing why... but you don't want to fight back... I..."

He looked straight into Nadine's eyes, his face twisted in anger. "I know. I know how you feel about Walt."
((And that's how you play dirty.
Counter-arguments are prepared in case of 'cry of foul-play,' PM me if you object.))

((Ouch. Things just got even more interesting. Lol.))

Shadow government? Involved in both wars? What the heck could she be talking about? Walt thought, trying to recall if he had ever heard anything of it before. But all he found himself thinking about was Nadine and if she was okay. Could she have been killed? Did the fireball in the sky come down yet? Was she...worrying about him, too? What are you thinking? She's with Saile! She's safe. Probably not even thinking about you... Walt felt a pang, but then heard Evie ask if there were any questions about the reading assignment.
"...Yes, actually, if you'll permit me..." Walt said, then bit his tongue. Zachary told him to stay quiet and not distract the students. "...Never mind..."

((Ho-ho, good memory...))

As Walt had pipped up with his question, something in the mirror above began changing. There was subtle movement, but the moment he dismissed his question, the phenomenon reverted to nothing.

"Very well, then class. Now then, today, we will look at... ...events." Evie said. Whatever she had tried to say had muffled out midway through. "Now then, let me write up a few of the vocabulary words as you all open your textbooks to page 923."

She turned around, and walked to the blackboard, her reverse-image crawling it's way behind the desk as well. As the students stood up and walked over to a bookshelf to get the texts, Evie began to write words up on the board.

Traumatism.
Abscond.
Destitute.
Contract.
Cooperation.
Unforeseen.
Sacrifice.
Indenture.
Obliged.
Guilt.
Desperation.
Plead.
Eidolon.
Acknowledgment.
Trade.
Liberty.
Cessation.

"...c'mon now, Mr. Visitor," Came the call from above. Reverse-Evie was 'staring' at Walt again, lazily playing with the bloody knife in her hands. "Surely you can do the math. School doesn't last forever~"
"..."

At the sound of such...sadness in Saile's voice to begin with, Nadine listened carefully to what he had to say. This tone of voice was more familiar. Despite knowing that this was in no way Saile, her eyes still widened with confusion and worry when he uttered that single, last syllable. ...Walt? She had...definitely gotten closer to Walt lately, but...it was him that liked her, right? She had read that much from him, but hadn't really thought about whether she...reciprocated those feelings.

I don't love Walt, Nadine said, finally snapping out of her confused stupor. I love Saile. Her voice was hesitant, as if unsure. What would make you think...? she tailed off, her dagger lowering to hang by her waist.

"..." Okay, let's try to piece this all together. Zachery said he was a deserter to his people and his honor. Then, I learned he was a communications officer, ergo not having to fight. And this "shadow government"...contacted him somehow. Hm...All these words tell the rest of the story for me, if I can recollect what they all mean, Walt thought. Traumatism: the physical or psychological condition produced by trauma...So he was injured somehow during the war...
Abscond: to depart in a sudden and secret manner, usually to avoid capture and legal prosecution... ...Maybe he wasn't the one who was injured? Maybe he was the one who did the injuring? No, maybe he just...while he was supposed to recover, he left the hospital...Hm...
Destitute: without means of subsistence. The theory that he was injured and left the hospital seems more likely with this word. He didn't have any means of survival...Hm...
Contract: really no need to define this word. I'm guessing this is about where the "shadow government" contacted him and made him sign a contract. I don't think he was in a position to refuse...
Cooperation: Willingness to cooperate. No surprise that he would be willing...at least, at first.
Unforeseen: Unexpected. There was an unexpected catch to the contract that Zachery didn't know, perhaps. Hm...
Sacrifice: I'm betting this was the unforeseen catch to the contract. But who or what did he have to sacrifice? Himself? Evie? Both?
Indenture: A sealed agreement. Not much to add here.
Obliged: A debt of gratitude or morally binding. Hm...I don't know the significance of this word yet...I mean, did this mean he was morally bound to the contract, or did it mean he was bound to someone else...?
Guilt: He felt guilty about what he would have to do, I bet.
Desperation: Hm...he was desperate to avoid the sacrifice, I assume...
Plead: He pleaded for a way to avoid it.
Eidolon: A phantom, apparition, or ideal. Hm...
Acknowledgment: So, they recognized the truth in this Eidolon...Hm...
Trade: They made a trade because of this acknowledgment? I wonder what they traded? Maybe...no, it couldn't be.
Liberty: Freedom. Because of this trade, he was free from the obligation he had...
Cessation: A temporary or complete stopping. ...Does that mean...of his life? Of the world? Of his liberty? Ugh. Just from the words, I can't get the full grasp of everything, although I can come pretty close...
He looked up at reverse-Evie.
"What happens...when school is over?" Walt asked before he could stop himself.

"Well, that's an easy question." Reverse-Evie said. She grinned a mad grin. "You get murdered in your sleep by a sleeper, and neither of you two are the wiser."

A terrible cackle came from her mouth, full of wildness and abandon, and she gripped the knife in her hand tightly. "She missed a vocab word, by the way. It's the most important one, right at the top of the spelling list... though, it's not like she could SEE it. Here, let me spell it out for you, so you can get back to the 'ideal'."

The Zachery in the mirror above took a slow step forward, approaching reverse-Evie. The Zachery near Walt was still sitting in his chair, his position mismatching the wanderings of his mirror-counterpart.

He lowered the gun he held and holding his hands up, to try and calm the twisted incarnation of his wife. She turned her attention to her lover and let out a snarl, before deftly hurling the knife toward him. He blocked it with his gun, and it went flying into the air... to smack against the mirror, reflection-side.

Cracks ran out across the impact, twisting and turning in long deliberate streaks. They spelled out a word.

EVIE

"Teacher, will the war reach us here?" One of the students pipped up.
"I'm sorry." Evie replied. "It already had."

"...biolink to central nervous system - RESTORED..."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

"...you deny it, but your face says otherwise." 'Saile' said. "Dammit, Nadine! How do you expect me to trust you after this?! How do you expect me to forgive!?!"

His eyes started to change, turning all black. The sword his arm grew into shifted into a lance-- the same trick used before while under the protection of the barrier. He steadied the lance, and air started to suck into a hole in the back of his arm.

"Nadine, I'm the angel of Hatred... I have you thinking unfaithful thoughts in the back of your mind, and you playing both our roles as Hatred and Revenge. I... have no choice...."

((He does have quite a lot of flexibility to him. XD

Oh yeh, by the by, I ought to remind you all that-- while I am all for progress without leading or spoiling plot --my main goal (or rather, the main goal of the character in control) is to have my characters stall yours. Remember, falling space object doom and all that.
Just thought it would be good to remind ya'll of that. Anyways, no more useless post from me. Go team!))

Nadine felt herself starting to panic, and she shifted so that she had a clear run for the doorway. You do have a choice! she blurted, before remembering that this wasn't Saile. You're not Saile. All of those reasons are fake - you just want to kill me!

She thought about who the puppeteer might actually BE. Well, there was one clear conclusion. But was she right? Evie..? she questioned quietly.

((It's hard to make an entirely flexible character who isn't godmodding.. :payne:
To be fully honest if I wanted to control a character I knew I would win 100% of the time with it'd be Ubrig.
He is currently my favorite.))

(((I’m waiting for Apollo to reply)))

((((Another side note, in the beginning of the story I introduced Saile as the Echost Angel, while in fact he was the angel of Hatred, He had the Echost powers because he was fused with Mayoi. Later on in the story when he defused he lost the Echost powers, but when he fought Mark he was given his powers as the conditions of the match. Saile will keep these powers until HE defeats Mark, or if Mark defeats him.))))


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A cold wind blows through the decrepit city, the center of the end.

The area where Hatred fought the Technaught Angel was now more desolated then it was when the war started.

Families had made shacks with the metal left from the mech, they were unaware where exactly the metal came from but they were forever grateful.
They had decided that there was a god looking over them; a Personal Savior, anyone who denied that was sacrificed to him.

The humans were unaware at how easy it was to make a god; simply by having spilled that blood did they feed their collective soul's effort to conjure the new god.
He had become real.

He was a harsh god; he did not forgive any rebellion.

Kaamos rode as the cold wind and stopped in the town. Snow had collected on his mane and fell whenever he moved.
His breath shriveled the leaves of the young trees in the area; they were reminded of the harsh winter coming in but three weeks.


The God appeared before Kaamos, who was himself surprised by this.

“Little Angel, why do you wander my land and destroy my life?”
The “god” was a humanoid of ever shifting features, at some times it was black, brow, blood red, or as white as snow.
The weapons in its hands shifted too, they changed from wicked daggers to blades to whips and at one point, a gun.

Kaamos said nothing; he shook his head, dropping a large ball of snow onto the ground.

The unnamed god bent back and thrust it’s head downward, melting the snow with a blast of blue flame.
As the god looked up he found Kaamos was gone.

“What?” the god whispered.

Kaamos was now behind the god.

Do you know what happens to gods when they die?


Kaamos asked him

((Yay for side stories!))

((Sorry! I've had my exam fortnight!))
Flux reeled back. How in the world was he meant to kill things that just regenerated?! Then Saile stabbed the wall. Eureka! That was just what he needed. He span around as fast he can and slammed his hand into an eye. He channeled his energy into it in the hope that it would reach the root of this hell. "Take that, you demon!" Flux cried.
He thought about what to do next. "Ah! Knight's Lance!" A long spear dissolved into existence. It was connected to the eye, but in Flux's hands. Magically, it thrust itself into the eye, becoming pure energy in the process. A painful, but purely psychological attack.
"How are ya faring, Saile?" He created more Knight's Arrows that homed on the mimics, detonating on impact.

Murdered in my sleep by a sleeper? Does this mean Zachery will...? I should leave now! ...But I came here to save him, and I don't think I've done that yet. I can't leave like this. Damn me and my morals! Walt thought as reverse-Evie told him about what would happen after "school." He then found himself staring up as reverse-Evie in the mirror as she said there was another word to add. The image of her throwing a knife at Zachery and him blocking the knife with his gun was more than a little disturbing, but then the word..."EVIE"...He knew she was the key to everything. The ideal of her...the person who was to be sacrificed...the reason Zachery pleaded to trade himself for that sacrifice...Her.
"Teacher, will the war reach us here?"
"I'm sorry. It already had."
Walt looked down, away from that mirror. He found it funny that, even when in Zachery's mind, he still couldn't tell what was going through that guy's head.
