View Full Version : The Sanctuary
Original thread started by Jayney
The first thing they notice about you is that you are not normal. Whether it be pale skin, strange eyes, fangs, wings, immense knowledge, power, speed, or even your voice. They will call you out, and you will be discarded.
Secondly, they realize how “inhumane” it would be to simply kill a baby. They are not stupid, they know that the public would notice and that they would be arrested. So they do not. Instead, you are torn from your dying mother’s arms and sent away to be Cleansed.
Thirdly, they realize that you will be recognized if you are present in the everyday world. You are too strange. So, you are sent away again to a dark, lonely castle in the middle of a dense, “undiscovered” forest.
Lastly, you cannot be found. You cannot escape and tell of their horrid prison. So they will lock you up. No unbarred windows, no unlocked doors. A trained guard will be at every post, watching your every move. You will be punished daily for your impudence.
At least... that's how it was.
Through miracle or tragedy, you've managed to escape the Hell which has been forced on you for as long as you can remember. After venturing through lands you've never known existed, you find yourself in a valley. One hidden from the hateful eyes of the rest of humankind.
In this valley stands an empty, old Spanish looking town. Well, it seems empty. As you step within the city walls, you begin to notice the city is actually inhabited by people fulfilling their everyday lives. Children in the schoolyard down the street. Teenagers hanging out at the street corner. Shopkeepers announcing sales in the market.
However, there's something wrong. Something about this town is very different from the ones you've seen on you're way here. A cautious, but optimistic sort of hope seems to thicken the air. All of the people are like you, with some physical characteristic that would label them a gift and a freak in the outside world.
A boy with wings walks down the street with his friends, a skateboard under his arm. Like it was the most normal thing in the world, to have wings.
A feeling that you're being watched nags at your mind, and you look to your left to see a young girl with eyes an entrancing snowy shade of blue-gray that couldn't possibly be natural. She approaches you with her hands clasped behind her back childishly.
"Welcome to Siletste. What's your name?"
~.:Two Years Ago:.~
The O R P H A N A G E was a compound formed to rid the world of Gifts like yourself. One day, a group of these Gifted children escaped from their cells, wandering the castle and releasing the others from their cells. Among these were the only children who survived the destruction of their prison: Eva, Elevir, Ren, Kaylee, and Seth. The Director, the man who started the whole thing, escaped with his life as well.
One might be wondering how the whole project collapsed. It was the Director's own doing. He destroyed his life's work. Why? It's actually pretty simple. Sort of.
Along with the other children, a different race of Gifts were released from their cells that day. They were called the Manics.
The Manics weren't like the other Gifts. Their power was used for the purpose of death, and only that. Not only could they make the most strong-minded of people go insane, to the point where they killed themselves or even other people without even realizing it, but they enjoyed it. They could go on for hours until they drowned in the blood of their victims.
One of these Manic Gifts would happen to have been the Director's own son. Larenzo, he was called, and called himself the Mad King. Or, at least, the evil part of him. He sort of had a split personality. When one side of him was killed, the truly murderous side took over. The Director couldn't allow Larenzo, or his released followers, to run free. In fact, he had to stop them at any cost.
So that's how our story ended. Or began.
_____________
Types of Gifts
Elemental Gifts: Gifts who control elements such as fire, water, earth, ice, wind, climate/weather and such. To use this power, they must channel it through a sort of tool or weapon.
Intellectual Gifts: Gifts with superior knowledge to those around them. They are brilliant and extremely witty and on their toes. Their personalities are sometimes a bit ‘know-it-all’, but they usually actually do know it all.
Formidable Gifts: Male Gifts who are incredibly strong. They can mean to give someone a hug or handshake and instead snap their spine or break their hand.
Reader Gifts: Gifts with the power to read and sometimes manipulate people’s minds. They are normally quite quiet, lurking in the shadows and reading the thoughts of other people. Skilled Reader Gifts even have the potential to read the minds of several people and predict the outcome of a situation involving them because of it. Though, there are very few who get to this point. There are also very few Gifts with the power to change or influence the mind.
Surreptitious Gifts: Clever Gifts with the power to shape shift. They are usually quite daring people with a love for adventure. What they can shift into splits them into groups. Some can mimic humans, while others can mimic certain types of animals.
Melodic Gifts: Gifts with the power to control the flow of time through music. By playing a certain tune on usually a wind or string instruments or singing perfectly in time and melody, they can stop, slow down, and/or quicken the flow of time. The limit of their power is up to them, though subconsciously. Some of the more shy and quiet Melodic Gifts are afraid to overuse their power and therefore can only do these things for about five minutes or so. Others, who’s personalities are bolder and more confident tend to be able to draw on for longer.
Winged Gifts: Gifts who were born with wings. These wings vary in shape, size, appearance and function. Some wings can retract from wherever they grow. Some wings merely disappear when they are not needed. Others cannot make themselves unseen.
Enticing Gifts: Female Gifts who are beautiful beyond all compare. Their bodies are flawless, eyes normally a gorgeous shade of rouge, lips a luscious red. They have clear skin, varying in color, and a strange glow about them, as if they’re always surrounded by a pale moonlight. Their voices are alluring; sweet and sultry and their personalities are usually a sort of passionate and eager along with some who are more innocent and lovably clueless to the selected audience. They are identified by a rose shaped birth mark across their lower back. These Gifts are very skilled in archery, even flawlessly so. They have a way of influencing people to think their way or do what they want with little effort. Very sneaky, sly, manipulative Gifts at their best.
Animator Gifts: Gifts with the ability to animate whatever they draw and make it into something real. Some Animators can only animate what's on the page like a cartoon, while others can go as far as drawing doors into walls or drawing a weapon to use in a fight.

Full Character Name: Elevir Riavfera
Age: 15
Appearance: 5'1 1/2, very fair-skinned. Gray, sometimes purpleish eyes that are often closed due to sensitivity to light. Platinum-blonde hair with about an inch of black at the tips that ends at her shoulders. She has unnaturally long and sharp canine teeth. Her ears are pointed and elf-like.
Bio: Her mother died during childbirth, as with all of the Orphanage children, but her father, who had a Winged Gift, hid her away before anyone could notice. She grew up in the thickly wooded areas surrounding her mother's hometown, where she honed her Reader skills with the many wild animals, and even learned to communicate with them. However, telepathy, even in it's simplest forms, is no easy task. One day, her and her father were attacked and her father killed. She awoke afterward, in the Hell known as The Orphanage. There, she tried to become a member of the guard to free the other Gifts, but when she was forced to kill Larz, instead releasing the leader of the Manic Gifts, the whole project was destroyed. After realizing that out of hundreds of children within the castle, the Director had only saved four, she flew away and hasn't been seen since.
Personality: Though quiet at first, she can be very headstrong and seems to rush into things without thinking.

They lied to her at first, telling her that she had to be taken away because she herself had a Gift when she didn't. After she was on the brink of death and they could no longer do any tests on her, they threw her out like a ragged doll and she was found by someone living in Siletste.
Sometimes she has premonitions due to the experiments she was put through and can see who's going to enter Siletste next and when.

5. Username: Deathsight44
Full Character Name: Toxyn (real name unknown)
Age: 15
Appearance:http://i412.photobucket.com/albums/pp202/moioku/blahdablah.jpg
Bio: Unlike most of the children who were abducted, his kidnapping was very simplistic. He was a crack baby. His last memory of his parents were them selling him off for a nice good deal of drugs. From there, he was sent off to be tested on. Due to his powers revolving around electricity, which is generated with an overuse of the electric waves the brain uses, he was frequently tested, performing experiments which monitored emotion, physical stress, etc, to see if his powers worked any differently because of it. What they mostly experimented with though was his nerves since the nervous system is the most effective way to monitor electricity, so most of them involved pain. Because he lived such a traumatizing life, he has grown to be very distant from people of all kinds. After escaping, he has been wandering aimlessly, looking for a place he can stay without people coming by, which leads up to now, which has lead him up to the discovery of a strange town which is populated by what can only be described as people with the most unique of qualities. Also due to the experiments, his body is always in what can be described as a constant pain. Not agonizing, but a constant ache.
Personality: He is very distant from people. As a person, he is good, always helping whenever if he can. He hates to see people disappointing or having any kinds of negative feelings when he knows that they don't deserve it, since he himself is quite familiar with the feeling, so the thing that drives him is knowing that he might be able to help others at least. From his point of view, he has no problem with getting close to others, believing that as long as he can provide some form of kindness to those who need it, he'll be able of help. He tries his best not to let others get close to him though, due to his own fears of betrayal. He also have a fear of any forms of physical contact. He flinches if he ever feels another touch him.
Weapon [If any]: Attached to his middle finger is what can only be described as a glove. It only covers his middle finger. It is made purely of steel, and at the edge of it is a tiny needle. Though small, it is sharp enough to be used as a type of claw. It is also useful as a conductor for his electricity.

Rea traveled the world with him, helping him take money to give to the poor... but not a cent went to a poor person. The boy was using her. One day, Rea was stricken with an illness. She was bed ridden for weeks. When she recovered, the boy was gone. He left a note with merely 6 words written on it, "You are of no use anymore." As a result of this, she trusts no one.

Age: 19
Appearance: http://quizilla.teennick.com/user_images/A/AN/ANI/Anime.Fantasy.Chicks/1201783647_nSexyAngel.jpg
Bio: with him being near the death date he began thinking of a way out by himself. His wings have grown back and the guards have not removed them yet due to his death being near and the fact that his body is not used to the use of them and he would litterly jump slightly farther than a normal human then plumet. After escaping he wandered for some time before finding sanctuary.

Gift: Winged gift
11.Username: DPWolf
Full Character Name: Rei "Wolf" Verd
Age: 18
Appearance: http://www.akibanana.com/files/image/0AKIHABARA/0904/Tabi/Horo.jpg
Clothing is almost the same, but with a red and black color scheme and has additional fur suited for cold temperatures.
Bio: Shunned as a child due to her red eyes, ears, and tail. After escaping, she wandered far to the North to avoid any contact with others. Her aggressive nature and wolf-like attributes made her an excellent hunter and tracker, and survived by acting as a bounty hunter. The people of the north had no other alternative, so she lived in relative peace hunting for some time. She began to grow restless however, because of hearing stories from other northern inhabitants of the other "freaks in the South"; after discovering that she could manipulate fire, she decided to head south to see what this newfound power could do in order to help others like her gain freedom. Her appearance and behaviour has earned her the nickname Wolf by those who know her.
Personality: Distant, trust needs to be earned, somewhat of a short fuse and a temper to match, but sometimes seems lonely
Weapon: Similar to this: http://www.onemanga.com/Inuyasha/382/12
Also is skilled at hand to hand combat and utilizes her fangs and claws.
Gift: Elemental [Fire]
12.Username: Twilightblader
Full Character Name: Drake Gray
Age: 21
Appearance: [insert link here]
Bio: Like most children with gifts, Drake was taken from his mother's hands and taken to the ORPHANAGE. At first he was just taken because of his strange eye color and did not know his gift but soon enough it was revealed when Drake went crazy and caused a lot of damage. He was locked up with the other manics and he stayed in his cell awaiting the time when he could escape. His time came when the king of Manics Larz set him free although unlike the other manics who were slaughtering everybody, Drake just took the opportunity and escaped from the place that held him
Personality: Drake has a split personality. At times he would be a pretty calm guy but other time he will become more brutal and sadistic
Weapon: Claws
Gift: Manic
14.Username: Legion
Full Character Name: Larenzo, Kendrith
Age: 22
Appearance: [insert link here]
Bio: After being buried in the demolishion, Larz and his fellow survivors took half a year to escape the rubble. Starving, they decided to feed upon few of the gifts who were not manics. The rest were drafted as lackies and spies. Larenzo's troop traveled through the forests for three days until reaching the city of Gifts. By that point, Larenzo said screw it and ordered his army to disperse into the populace. He spent the rest of his time going from job to job, trying to find his will to complete his plan. I believes soon that day will come.
Personality: sadistic, cruel, inconsiderate, and a master at reading things upside down, Larz is everything you'd not entirely consider for an evil overlord. He'd probably agree, but that would just so he could get close enough to scramble your brains. However, on rare occasion, Larz has a kinder side. Usually it is intended for those he considers pets.
Weapon : claws
Gift: Manic
15.Username: Periwinkle
Full Character Name: Charis Laverna
Age: 12
Appearance: http://media.photobucket.com/image/a...mall.jpg?o=182
Bio: Charis is a lonely young girl that moved to the town of Siletste a few years ago. The only relative to her that is possibly alive is a person named Claire, who happened to be a teenage victim in the Orphanage. The odds are very slim that Claire is alive, but Charis refuses to believe that she is dead. Charis doesn't know how much of a relation she has to the girl or who she is exactly, but if she happens to find her alive, it just might be possible for her to learn of or find information on her father. A friend of Charis's mother told her that Siletste was one of the closest towns near the Orphanage, making that her area to move and spot for Claire at. Her clue to finding the girl was a picture that was given to her from her mother, before she died.
Personality: Optimistic, kind, childish, can be serious during a certain situation. She also seems to have a slight obsession with sweets.

WAFFLESPWNPANCAKES, DAMN IT. >:0
(Short, I know, but I'm lazy and working on an essay right now. =P)
Illian's eyes opened to meet the darkness of night; the only light to be seen was radiating brightly from the moon and stars that dotted the sky. Quickly, she hopped off of her bed and changed into her school uniform, as it was the first outfit she could grab. Slipping on her shoes and her jacket, and clipping her thick, somewhat overgrown bangs back, she rushed out of her room, down the hall and out of her home, and continued down the road to the town gate. She had to be fast if she were to meet the new girl in time.
She slowed down around the corner of the only street into their silent hamlet, to out of breath to run any more. No one was there, yet. She was lucky. According to her dream, the new girl was going to be there in a little longer than a minute.
Elevir looked around the town she had found, trying to assess whether it was safe to stay there or not. There hadn't been any wooded areas like she was used to for days. Only mountains, valleys, and small towns and villages where she was sure to be spotted. She hadn't eaten in the three days it had taken her to find this place, and though it wasn't nearly as bad as what she'd endured for a week at the O R P H A N A G E, it wasn't helping her judgment at all.
"Oh, hi!" someone called over to her, as though they knew her from somewhere. It startled her, and she looked over to see a girl about her age, in a familiar-looking outfit. The Reader couldn't recall why it was familiar, but it was.
The new girl didn't seem intent on approaching Illian, so the younger girl stepped closer, until she was only feet away.
"Welcome to Siletste," she spoke as usual, "What's your name?"
The girl's name was Illian. Elevir could hear that much. And she didn't have bad intentions.
"I'm Elevir..." she responded, and after a little more searching through Illian's thoughts, she understood that this town was different from the others she'd been to.
"So you're a Reader, then?" Illian spoke.
"I never thought that a place like this was possible," Elevir said, "If it's really like what you think of it."
"It is." Illian replied, grateful that the one person who'd found Siletste in the middle of the night was a Reader, and she didn't have to explain."Anyway, you look like you could use some rest. Come on."
Illian led Elevir to the place where new kids, or whoever happened to wander into town without a permanent residence stayed. It wasn't like an inn; actually, it was far from it. Elevir couldn't find the right term to use, though. Perhaps this was what her father used to describe to her as a home, like where her mom lived before she was born. Except bigger.
Trying to remember what her mother's home looked like started to give her a headache, so she shook the thoughts from her mind and stepped inside the bedroom that the lady who greeted them at the front of the home showed her. The lady's thoughts on the town and the new girl proved to Elevir that she was safe here, as though the fact that the lady herself was an Elemental wasn't proof enough.
After changing into the nightshirt that Illian let her borrow, she laid down on the bed(it was the first time in her life that she'd ever actually seen a real bed) to sleep.
OOC:// Okay, I know it sucks xD. But w/e, I needed to start this.

Evangeline brushed dirt off her knees, then stood up, rubbing her head. She sighed, then smiled. There was so much done. She went inside, then put her gloves in a drawer. Now......grabbing a book, she curled up in one of the couches, and started reading, losing herself in the characters of a book. At least they didn't lose anything.

"The hell am I..." Toxyn mumbled. He helled his head, a slight headache occuring. He had not recieved proper rest for what had been a good week. It started with him having paranoia of every human he came into contact with, thinking they wanted to capture him. After seeing that they were different though, the lack of sleep lead to his tendancy for his powers to go out of yack since his powers could not function perfectly unless his mind was stable. Whenever he slept, his powers might react if even the slightest bit of metal was aloud near him. When he was awake, everything around him would become staticly charged, which was easy to tell when peoples hair would begin to stick up. He had just entered the town though, quickly searching for some where that he might be able to grab something to drink and eat. A bar perhaps. He'd tried a fast food resturaunt, but the last mcdonalds he went to......well, to put it best, he found out that they were definatly putting something not meant to be ettible to humans in their food, due to the reaction.
His body ached at the time. The past experiments made it this way, and the drowsiness wasn't helping. He ended up laying down against a stone wall next to the side walk, and rested his head against it. He felt almost dizzy at the time, and was tired enouph to admit that he may have very well hallucinated a little.

Curled up in the reading chair, Evangeline eventually let her eyes drift shut, her head pounding slightly. She got so many headaches these days...and she couldnt' shift as easily either. Snuggling deeper into the chair, she slowly fell into a dreamless sleep, Larz haunting her dreams.

Bent over a table covered in paper work and bills, Victor tried to balance his funds. His fast food chain was a huge success, but even after two years there was alot of red tape to push through. Pushing his lime bangs away from his tired eyes, the entrepeneur decided to take a break from his finances.
Stepping into the adjacant room, Victor stumbled upon Evangeline, his pseudo daughter, sleeping in a chair. He cracked bitter sweet smile. He had lost one child to his sins that were commited in a hell he made personally. Looking into the childs eyes, he was afraid he'd lose another.
"Eva." he murmured softly, shaking her shoulder.

"Don't worry about it." Victor quickly blurted, rubbing his forehead to dispell the impact. After the pain lessened to a dull ache. "I'll do more tommorow. Why don't you go up to bed, I'll tidy up here." Taking a step forward, Victor opened his arms wide to offer Eva a hug."

Eva hugged him, closing her eyes for a bit. He was stressed, and she knew she was worrying him too. "I'll make it up to you tomorrow." she murmured, stepping back and smiling brightly, trying to dispel his worries. She grabbed the book and walked up the stairs, her hand gripping the railing. At the top, she turned left, and walked into her room. Collapsing on the bed, she closed her eyes, hoping this stupid spinning would stop.

Victor watched her leave, the warmth of Eva's hug still lingering. He was happy. Two years ago, those words wouldn't dare cross him on the path of sin he took. "Maybe I should check up on the moody cash cow." he mused, thinking of how troublesome their only form of income was. Grabbing a black trench coat and hat, Victor made his way out the door and into the paved walkways of the city.

Ren sat inside the restaurant and ordered a drink and immediately took a seat. It was getting dark and most people were heading home. Ren sat there and sighed. He immediately held his head. He could hear many screams in his head. "their deaths still haunt me" Ren said trying to dismiss the screams

Eva opened her eyes after a bit, her head spinning. She stumbled over to the window, feeling her bones ache. Gripping the sill with her hands, she noticed some kind of commotion. Making her way down the stairs, she stumbled to the bar, her loose clothes catching on the doorway. Watching. Ren. She tried to stumble back to her house. Daddy wouldn't want her here.

OOC: I have to go, feel free to leave her. I'll be back tonight anyway.
OOC:// Rexa and Akua, your characters are in.
@ TwilightBlader: lolno? Your scenario's really unrealistic; seeming as how all of the people in the town are Gifts and are mostly able to defend themselves. That and a gang can't exactly claim a restaurant as their own turf.
This roleplay isn't Naruto, either. Please try to avoid random fight scenes, as well as "barrage of punches" and repeating "dodged easily" three times lol. Try to tone it down or at least be a bit more descriptive. Both would be nice.
I don't mean to negate your posts or nitpick or anything. If you can find a way to change your words around or something like that it would be great; otherwise just try to improve your future posts.

"How is Eleveir anyways? Two years have passed since she parted ways with us."
Victor framed himself in the doorway of his restaruant, pulling his hat over his eyes. Trying to hide his expression of shock at Ren's materialization. If his former subordiate saw how he looked now, Victor would never command the same amount of respect.

Victor chuckled softly, a novelty that was quite commonplace lately.
"Without my old business to sustain me, I had to make a new one. I've been trying to save up enough to expand."
His kind smile slowly gave way to his old, sullen features.
"What a cruel twist of fate this is."
OOC: Thanks. ^^
BIC: Rea layed in her bed, staring at the ceiling. She sighed to herself as she sat up. Rea glanced over at the small nightstand beside her bed. On it, was her flute, the way she used her so called, 'gift'. She just wanted to destroy the flute and never use her gift again... but as much as she wanted to, she could never bring herself to do it...

"There were no innocents in that building, Ren." Said Victor, his tone heavy and cold. "Not one. Not the children, not the emplyees, not even the vermin that hid in the cracks of walls."
With a tense calm, Victor stepped behind the counter, past the cashier, Grabbed a large paper cup. He stared at it for what felt like an eternity.
"Ren, what would you measure this as? Half full, quarter empty, three fourths full, nine tenths empty?"

"Really?" Victor replied softly. "I believe this cup is completely full." Gently, he placed it on the counter, a hollow tap from when the base hit the surface. "It is full of our accomplishments, our gains, our victories and what we have learned from our mistakes."

Victor covered his heart.
"Those things cannot be contained in such a vessel. only our souls are able to keep it from spilling out onto the floor and drowning those we love."
Rea picked the flute up off of the nightstand. She put it to her lips and started playing a sweet melody. She closed her eyes as she played, listening to the song. Her fingers moved gracefully over the holes. She stopped playing and smiled a little.

Clenching the table, Eva let the sounds fade away. She could see it all, the smell of blood and fear, and Larz...dying...shivering, she buried her head deeper. She didn't want to see that, but it was like her mind wouldn't let it go, his eye spinning faster and faster....her bones ached, and she looked up from the floor. I....shifted?

Ren looked at Eva and watched her clench the table Eva.........she just can't forget about what happened with Larz. It is haunting her mind Ren thought to himself. He could tell what kind of pain she was in by reading her mind. "you have to try and relax your mind" Ren said calmly
Elevir opened her eyes to total darkness. She couldn't tell where she was, but she wasn't in the room in that town she'd found. She was falling. And she couldn't move. She was bound by the same chains they'd restrained her with when she was brought to the Orphanage.
It only felt like seconds before something changed. She fell into something... it felt like water, but there was no splash, and no sound to indicate such. But now, she was free. Her wings spread out behind her, lighting up the water with a bright, goldish glow that made her eyes burn. She closed her eyes instinctively, and a flood of thoughts and images and sounds and screams rushed into her head. Memories... but not her own.
Her eyes opened slightly, and the images stopped. She was standing now, although still in the darkness. There was someone else standing a few yards from her, a little closer to reality.
Elevir recognized her. From where, though?
Wait.
"Eva?"
OOC:// If no one else can tell what just happened, Elevir connected with Eva's mind in a dream. So the real Eva can hear her and see her. But however you want Eva to take this is up to you lol.

Elevir had to think the second question through for a moment. She had gotten... wherever she was, it was still pitch black to her eyes... through a dream, right? But it felt different from a dream.
"Um..." she spoke, looking a bit off to the side while organizing her thoughts, "I think it is, in a sense... But it's more like two different dreams that are connected somehow."
Something else was weird about this, though.
"...I see you as a human, but you're really not right now... right?"
In her mind, Elevir could see that Eva was in some other form in her own perspective. But Elevir saw her as a girl....

Toxyn lifted his head up, after resting on the side of the street. Not too far away he saw a feline walking all by itself. To him it seemed as if it were staring at something, though he really didn't bother to put too much thought into it. He merely sat on the side like a bum, staring at the cat, thinking it was just some normal ordinary every day cat. While concentrating on the cat though, the near by light flickered slightly, his ability affecting it.

Eva shook her head. "I somehow shifted...its my panther form but....I cant change back..." she shook her head, her eyes focusing on a distant guy for a second, then away. He was kinda freaking her out, and she got dizzy.....stumbling slightly, she pushed herself into the shadows. "Where are you? Let me find you."
Eva didn't seem to be in much of a shape to go searching for her.
"You don't have to look for me," Elevir said, looking toward the older girl with a worried look on her face, "You seem like you need to rest, more than anything..."
Elevir's vision slipped out of focus for a second, and she felt dizzy like Eva.
"It's time we said goodbye, for now, Eva. This weird connection is taking its toll on both of us."

Eva shook her head, clinging on with whatever she had left. "Come on, tell me. At least I can pass the message on. I can't just abandon you at all." she whispered, feeling like she was physically holding onto something.
"You can't tell them," Elevir responded, in the same whisper, after taking some time to figure out who Eva could pass the message on to. "You can't tell them about any of this. It's not that I don't want to see you... I don't want them looking for me, Eva."
It was then she realized that Ren might find out regardless. He was a powerful Reader, even if he couldn't control the force of his Gift as well as she could.
Her focus wavered again, for longer.

"...Thank you," Elevir spoke, "and you too. Though... I think we're going to meet again really soon."
The older girl seemed to disappear into the darkness after a moment. The floor, or whatever Elevir had been standing on, seemed to break like silent glass, and she found herself falling once again. The only difference was that this time, she wasn't chained up. But her wings still wouldn't catch the air.
Then, there was nothing.

Toxyn raised an eyebrow as he watched the cat morph into a half girl, half cat like being. "God, I really am lacking sleep..." he mumbled as he watched the girl. When he had escaped, he had never really encountered any others of his kind. He knew that there were others, but just never really got the chance to see them. "The hell..." the grumbled, as he kept on staring at the strange animal/person. As he did, the light next to him began to brighten due to his own excitement. After all, seeing a neko in the middle of the street wasn't exsactly normal...

"Don't worry about me." he murmered. Quickly, Vitctor removed his overcoat and wrapped it around Eva tight. She might catch a cold without proper clothing. While his primary attention was on her, he never let his gun drop. The director made sure that his gun was pointed straight at the stranger's chest. Maybe he was being paranoid again, but now wasn't the time for trust. Family first, ask questions later.

Eva could only stare at him in horror. He must have the gift of reading minds. She covered her ears with her hands, making her thoughts go crazy. Even if she paid for it later, the least she could do was give him a headache. Her mind jolted from animal to human, from prey to predator and back again, switching species faster then her body could ever have kept up. One of the small things Larz had allowed her to do.

Toxyn just stared. The stare had gone from one of interest, to one of hostility. He was staring directly into the directors eyes, murderous intent in them. He recognized the man. The man who had seen him many times. Back then, he had probably just been anouther number to him, but in Toxyn's eyes, this man had caused him what was much misery, from what he heard from scientists.
He didn't bother to stand up, but he just sat there, his arms covering his knees still. He brought his right hand into the pocket of a trench coat he had been wearing, and then pulled it back out, returning it to where it had been before. On his middle finger was what appeared to be a type of armor. At the end of it was a sharp tip, a miniture blade of sorts. He didn't take his eyes off of the director, waiting to see just how they'd react.

Glareing down the barrel of his pistol, the former director kept the boy in is sights. The details of his features and frame eluded him, just another child on the streets. Those eyes, however, were a completely diffrent story. Such anger, such hatred. Only those of greatest hardship and personal vendetta could have those eyes and all of them were buried in rubble.
Ignoring the childs efforts to conceal his movements, Victor decided to cut to the chase.
"Who are you?" he asked.

She struggled to threaten, then closed her eyes, cradling her head as her body began to shift with the changes. If Victor didn't move away from her, then he might be shredded. She whimpered, feeling like something was trying to claw out of her. The gun..... she wanted to reach out, but if she let go of her head, then her skull might split.

Toxyn slowly began to stand, not making a sound. His sight remained on the man with the gun though. A man with a gun was a dangerous thing, but an animal full of hate was anouther, and that was exsactly what Toxyn was at the moment.
He slowly began to stand up, not replying to the mans question. It wasn't like he talked a lot. For quite some time, he had already been distant from people. His body constantly aching, the one thing that kept his electricity constantly charged. His face showed no expression.
His thoughts at the time were blank as well. His mind drew a blank, and the only thing he was focused on was the director. And for just one quick moment, a memory flashed in his mind, a memory of the torture that he had gone through, the very experiments which caused him the pain he had now. The minute that memory flashed, a slight jolt of eletricity flashed by his middle right finger.

Victor tightened his grip around the trigger, running his thumb across the hammer to make sure it was cocked. Seeing the arc of electricity did little to ease his mood. An elemental, of all things an elemental gift. He had experience with electric gifts, or teslas as the guards used to brand them. The only way to properly surpress them was with an electronic magnet apparatus. That way the deadly volts could be pushed back onto the user and be rendered paralyzed. This wasn't the orphanage however and he wasn't going to be getting a magnet anytime soon.
Slowly, Victor bent on one knee and wrapped his free arm around Eva's shoulders. This threat, the eyes of a killer under a mask of childhood ambition, He was going to make sure that a person would lose their life tonight and the former director was going to make sure it wasn't his daughter's.

It was as if a trigger had been pulled at that moment. The pupils in his eyes reacted like a cats would every time it would jump in to make the kill. His eyes went wide, and the pupils widend as well. He took a step forward, trying to frighten the director into shooting, then quickly jumped to the side, hoping to avoid if he shot. Guns were fast, so make assumptions was the best way to avoid them after all. The minute he felt steady, he ran forward, towards the director, keeping low to the ground, dragging the metalic finger guard on the ground, the sharp point scarping it, as if creating a bit of static in the air, and then came to a hault, swinging his right arm into the air, shooting a bolt of electricity straight through the air, using the gun as a conductor, so even though it'd go straight to the gun, it would ensure total accuracy. A small flash of white could be seen in his eyes the moment he unleashed the electricity, only heightening the hate in them.

Pain twisted and contorted the body of the director. The surge from the now searing hot gun set every nerve he had on end. He let out a choked howl, the volts wouldn't even let his throat muscles function properly. With all the will he still retained, Victor uncurled his charred fingers and dropped the burning revolver. A dull thud rattled off the walls that now seemed dim and pale in the wake of the spetacular lightshow that had turned the entire street into shades of black and white. The sound came from victor, his knees striking the ground as the surrendered to the weight of the attack became to great to bear.

Eva shifted as she pulled free of Victor, shifting into a much bigger animal, a polar bear. She wouldn't be able to control this form for long, but it had to be enough. Swinging her paw, she tried to smack the stranger back, standing over her foster father's body.

Toxyn rushed forward the minute he saw his enemy fall to his knees, and began running towards him. His speed seemed slightly above average, probably because he was pumping electrolites through his body to make himself go faster.
He lashed his right arm out, trying to sting the sharp point of his weapon straight into the directors chest, but was brought to a hault the minute he felt the claws of a large creature scrape his back, cutting through the skin like butter.
He screamed, a mixture of pain and terror. His body already pained on a daily basis, but with his heightend nervous system, the pain of being scratched by a cat could be equivilant to that of being scratched by a bear. Considering that he had just been scratched by a bear, the pain was horrifying to him.
Quickly as a reaction, he spun around, attempt to slash the paw, and then before she could get anouther swipe at him, he started running away, quickly darting around a corner. He wanted to kill the man who had caused him so much pain, but the pain he was experiencing now....his own fears of being around people had taken over. And now all he wanted was safety.

OOC:// YAY TIME LAPSE
IC:// The sun had risen before she woke up, and judging by it's position in the sky, it was about 9:00. Maybe ten, actually. But waking up late wasn't the strangest part of Elevir's stay in the town so far. There were other gifts in the town. And everyone kind of treated her strangely. They weren't mean; actually the weird part about it was that they seemed too nice.
Then again, what would she know about that, anyway.
The other Gifts had told her that it was fine to keep her wings visible here, so she did. It felt more natural than keeping them hidden, even if hers were different from the others' wings.
She stepped through the town in a passively cautious fashion, and the thoughts she heard were generally the same.
'Oh, who's the new girl?'
'She must be new here...'
'When did she get here?'
As opposed to the usual, 'Who's the freakshow?' kinds of thoughts she would here in other places, even with her wings and ears hidden. It's like the other people -- the ones without gifts, they just knew somehow.
She stopped her pace when she heard a familiar voice pass through her mind. It was the same voice she remembered vividly from the dream she'd had earlier. It belonged to Eva, and it was coming from the restaurant a few paces up ahead... but she could hear a second person's thoughts from the same building.... The Orphanage's former Director.
She stepped into the narrow alley next to the building, overwhelmed by the entire situation around her. She needed somewhere to think for herself for a moment and clear everyone else's thoughts from her mind, and although she could always go back to the house she was staying in temporarily, she'd probably just walk all the way back eventually anyway.

Curled up in the overstuffed armchair in the corner of the den, Victor groaned and hissed as shards of his skin were flaked off by his sudden movements. How long had it been since his last encounter with a tesla, five...ten years ago? Back then, when he got shocked vitality would act as a quick regenerator or at least prevent severe damage. Now, his body was tired and weak, barely able to stand up to a punk.
He had already filed the police report with the local officers in the district. When they asked why he hadn't fought back with his own powers, Victor decided to bend the truth. He told them that the assailant was far too quick and was on the ground before defensive actions could take place.

Toxyn shivered, cradling his knees, while sitting behind a trash can in an ally way. He had been there for the entire night. The trench coat was no good to him, so he had discarded it so not to bring any attention to himself. For the rest of that night though, he had been resting.
His sleep was disrupted by the sound of foot steps. The moment he woke up, he grunted, feeling the pain on his back. He quickly noticed the steps though, and hid behind the trash can. He had to go on instinct for now, and he realised that. He was wounded, afraid, and his emotions would probably take over at any moment. It wouldn't be a good idea to be near people while exposed like this.
For a moment though, he stuck his head out, trying to get a view of the girl, but retreated behind the dumpster again. Wings...
A sudden shuffling sound brought Elevir's attention to the back of the alley. At first she tensed up, ready to run if she had to, but a few seconds later she realized that whoever it was didn't mean any harm.
She stepped quietly over to the area where the sound originated, and what she saw startled her at first. The boy in front of her was almost covered in blood, and he was shaking. By the boy's expression she could tell he was hurt and afraid.
Somehow, she was afraid, too. And though she couldn't just run away from him, she didn't want to speak, either. Standing in silence, she looked through the boy's thoughts to answer her questions.

Eva slowly pulled herself out of the tub, wrapping a towel around herself. Taking out the plug in the drain, she watched the tub empty, then went into her room, drying her hair slowly as she went. She had work to do, and whether or not this headache would go away didn't matter. She had it to do, and she had to help manage the business. She went to the dresser, throwing on jeans and a tank top, black of course, with the jeans ripped, then a maroon sweater over that. She went downstairs, looking for Victor. "Dad?"

Clothing is almost the same, but with a red and black color scheme and has additional fur suited for cold temperatures.
Bio: Shunned as a child due to her red eyes, ears, and tail. After escaping, she wandered far to the North to avoid any contact with others. Her aggressive nature and wolf-like attributes made her an excellent hunter and tracker, and survived by acting as a bounty hunter. The people of the north had no other alternative, so she lived in relative peace hunting for some time. She began to grow restless however, because of hearing stories from other northern inhabitants of the other "freaks in the South"; after discovering that she could manipulate fire, she decided to head south to see what this newfound power could do in order to help others like her gain freedom. Her appearance and behaviour has earned her the nickname Wolf by those who know her.
Personality: Distant, trust needs to be earned, somewhat of a short fuse and a temper to match, but sometimes seems lonely
Weapon [If any]: Similar to this: http://www.onemanga.com/Inuyasha/382/12
Also is skilled at hand to hand combat and utilizes her fangs and claws.

Rei growled.
For once, her senses were not helping her.
"...Where in the hell am I?" she thought. She hadn't thought she was away for so long that the landscape of the South lands would change so much. And yet, there she stood, on the top of a small hill, still dressed in the thick fur that saved her life in the North. She sniffed at the air again, attempting to gain some sort of direction, and her wolf-like ears twitched up at the distant scent of a populated area.
"Smells different than most towns...guess it's a South thing?" Rei snorted.
"No matter, if it's a town, that means there's life, and if there's life, then I might have a job...and an opportunity to test this out on things other than snow," she said aloud, glancing at the strange weapon she had recently acquired, which was now attaching and hanging from her belt. She started in the direction of the town.
In a short while, Rei reached the town. Glancing around, she knew that it was very different from the settlements in the North, but there was something more to it. Something in the air was almost...familiar to her, as if she had smelled the air before, a long time ago. She couldn't see any people, but she knew there had to be some around.
Scenting the air again, she picked up a fairly recent scent that stood out among other faded ones. Her years of tracking and hunting in the North led her to the conclusion that the stranger had come in almost the same direction she had, so there was nothing to lose if she followed it.
"Might as well, matches the odd scent of the air here, maybe I can get some answers out of...whatever it is I'm following."
With that, Rei quietly walked further into the town.

A mixture of fear, exsaustion, and hate ran through his mind. He was still foggy towards the night before, so memories of how he had encountered the girls past friends hadn't popped up in his mind, though the memory of the polar bear attacking him still was fresh in his mind.
He tucked in his knees more. His body ached. He didn't have the energy to attack this person to get away. He felt weak, exposed, as if he was about to be captured again, or maybe even killed. Right now, the only thing he could focus on was what he thought was about to happen.

The receptionist slowly reached to the keys behind her and passed one to Leon with Leon passing the rest of his money back. "How long can I stay with that much"? he asked with the woman answering him "Three nights".
With his key in hand Leon thanked the woman simply and dragged himself up the stairs to room 7 where he would be staying for now.

Rei followed the scent through the fairly deserted street. There were some other people milling about, but once she focused on a scent or sound, everything else faded to the back of her mind.
She noted several alleyways however, and kept that in mind as a possible hiding place if this town wasn't as...accepting as the North.
The scent led her to a building that reminded her of the small inns in the North, though this was much bigger and not buried in snow. The scent grew stronger as she got closer to the door.
"Must've just passed through here..." Rei thought, and entered the building. The woman behind the desk didn't seem to be very attentive, almost as if she were distracted by something. Rei took advantage of the woman's inattentiveness and crossed the room in several swift, quiet movements.
Sniffing the air again, her tail absently twitched; by the way the scent was it seemed like it's owner was half dead.
"Half dead or not, I can still get answers...let's see where you're staying."
Rei went up the stairs, following the scent to a room marked 7. Confirming that this was indeed where the scent led her, she knocked on the door several times.
Rea sighed and layed back down in her bed. "I can't keep myself shut up in my room like this... Look at me, I have no friends... i'm a loser..." She sat up. "But, i'm not gonna just sit here and sulk about it." Rea stood up and walked to the door. "I'm gonna make some friends." She opened the door and walked out.

Leon had hardly been in the room for a few minutes when someone knocked. He didn't have enough time to tend to his traveling wounds, rest or clean. Taking a minute to get to the door he opened it slightly to see who was there. Stood infront of the door was a wolf-like girl, "Do you want something"? he asked, his voice was still rough.
DPWolf
11-21-2009, 03:44 PM
Rei wasn't sure what to expect when the door opened.
The occupant hadn't opened the door fully, but it was enough for her to gather basic facts: male, white hair, smelled like blood.
Her red eyes focused on him, trying to pick out any other identifying traits should a job come up in which he was the prey. Given that he was already injured, she suspected he was running from something or someone.
For a moment, Rei thought she saw some kind of feathers, but dismissed it as her mind playing tricks on her in the new environment.
His voice sounded as battered as he looked, and she replied, "Yeah. I've got a few questions for you."
Her ears were pointed forward, right hand near her weapon in case the man tried to attack and run.

"Questions?", Leon replied slightly surprised as it could be heard in his voice before a mild coughing fit. After the cough subsided he looked at the girl again, she seemed feral in a way. "Go ahead with your questions", he said still keeping the door partially open, unsure whether she was violent or not.

"Alright then, wh-" she started, but then her ears picked up the sound of someone coming up the steps.

Leon stepped out the way of the door before it was pushed open. He quickly noticed the weapon she held and was prepared to make a break for the window if she attacked. Even if he was injured and tired he could still use his wings enough for escape.

Rei swore, in her effort to dodge whoever was coming up the steps, the metal claws had cut her leg. She muttered to herself, "I don't even know what this thing is supposed to be for and it's doing more harm than good..."
Turning back to the man, she saw that he was badly injured and exhausted. His scent, now that she was in the room, told her that he was wary of her. She couldn't really blame him, since her appearance was less than friendly, from the animal skins she wore to the weapon at her side; not to mention the things that so many already hated and feared her for - the attributes of a wolf.
Her entire train of thought suddenly stopped, however, when she noticed that he had wings. Despite several years of hunting all kinds of people and creatures in the North, her tongue slipped anyway. In a shocked voice, she said, "What the hell are you?"

Eva sighed, then grabbed her foster father and pointed him in the direction of his bedroom. "Nope. You're going to rest. I'll get back to work on those." She smiled, pushing him lightly. "Go on."
Victor grunted. His attempts to push up against his girl's hands was futile. In such a weakened state, she might as well have become a body builder.
"No" he was able to hiss out as he tried to breath. "I'll do the bills, not you."

Rei stared at him.
"So we both look different than others," she said. Noticing that he wouldn't look away from her weapon, she sighed and reattached it to her belt. At the same time, she took a small piece of fur from a pouch on her belt to stop the bleeding on her leg and tied it in place, wincing slightly in pain.
Looking back up at him, she growled, "You can stop staring at the weapon now, if I was here to kill you you'd already be dead," and then said, "Besides, I...never met anyone that's said they're like me before."
Her hand stayed near the chain on the metal claws. "But how do I know that those wings are real? I've had other hunters try and decieve me with fake appearances."

"I... I'm not going to hurt you," Elevir spoke, holding a hand out to help the boy, Toxyn, up. "I escaped from The Orphanage, too."
Realizing Toxyn hadn't said that he was from the Orphanage out loud, Elevir quickly corrected herself, the feathers on her luminescent wings ruffling a bit.
"Oh, sorry... I'm a Reader, not just a Winged gift...."

"Just got here. I was about a mile out, picked up the scent of civilization, and once I was on the outskirts of town I picked up another scent," Rei said, red eyes focused on his, "Your scent. Which is why I'm here now."
She went to the window and looked out. Sure enough, there were people about that she hadn't noticed before that looked different. Growling slightly, she said, "Yeah, didn't see them, too focused. But I don't see any of them looking...half wolf."

Toxyn tightend his hug around his legs. He looked up at her for a moment, but diverted his eyes when he saw her looking at him. "You've got wings..." he said. That was the only words that came out of his mouth though.
Are you an angel? he thought, knowing that she could read his mind. He didn't like to talk. It caused unnescasary pain. As far as he was concerned though, he had only heard rumors of the other types of people that were there. Readers were the only ones that he had met, as well as other elementals. They needed to use readers to get into his mind, to toy with him.
he still didn't budge though. The fact that he was talking to her a little was enouph. That did not mean that he did not fear her still.

"Yeah, I might be. What's it to you?"

She then looked at him with slight confusion and thought, "Is he showing...compassion?"
Shaking it off as her mind tricking her, she said, "Again, just want some answers. Wherever you feel most comfortable talking is fine with me, as we've established that I'm not going to hurt you."

Rea pulled her hand away from her nose and looked at it. Blood was all over the palm of her hand. She stowed away her flute in her coat pocket and broke into a dead run, back towards the small shack she called home. "Man, this hurts..." Rea groaned a little before entering the shack. She walked up to a desk and started searching the drawers.
An angel?
"No," Elevir responded, letting her hand fall back to her side."I'm just Gifted, like you are..."
She looked off to the side, her blonde hair partially blocking her vision. Toxyn, the seemingly tortured boy in front of her, brought back the thoughts from that week she had spent at the Orphanage. She closed her eyes tightly, and shook her head briefly in an attempt to dismiss the thoughts.

What happens if you 'help' me he thought, putting emphasis on the word help for a reason. I have no reason to trust you. Thanks you you freaks, I'm where I am right now he continued. To him, he was disgusted by what he was, and he hated everything around him.
He slowly began to move, trying to stand up. His body was shaking, partially from pain, and partially from fear that she might still try something. Even if now he was acting a bit sharper towards her, it was only his thoughts. He wouldn't have the guts to speak even if he tried.
Just leave me alone. All people do is hurt me anyway he stated, taking little steps, as he began to try and walk towards the end of the ally. From the trembling legs and tiny steps though, he obviously wasn't looking as tough as he thought he was at the moment.
She felt like his words had shot her, like bullets.
'It's not like I'd asked for this, either,' she spoke, telepathically. 'I never asked for my parents to die.'
"Even if you can't read minds, you have to be sharp enough to know that you'll have to rely on someone eventually," she said, in a voice that was almost a whisper. "Especially with wounds like those. But if you don't want my help... then I can't force it on you."

Latching the order into the steel basket on the rear of his bicycle, the delivery boy got ready to go on his final run of the day. He let out a sharp yelp before shoving his fingers into his mouth. The hot sauce burning his flesh. "Damn!" he cussed. in a huff, the twenty-something swung his leg over the seat, pressed against the pedals, and went off to do the deed.

Toxyn stopped in his tracks, absorbing just what she was saying. He knew that she was right by now. By now, his mentality had taken charge over his emotions. He had been in pain. He had a giant scar on his back that could have been infected. And if she had been what of the directors servants, then since she was a reader, she probably would have taken the opportunity while he was afraid.
His breathing slightly sped up for a moment, trying to work up the courage to turn around. He closed his eyes for a moment, tried to calm down, and started taking deeper breaths, and started to turn around, keeping his eyes closed.
Try anything, and I'll kill you he thought, the words echoing in his head. Logic had over come fear, but he was still no better then a wounded animal. He was tense, and the trembling had subsided slightly.
Rea cleaned up the blood. Her nose had finally stopped bleeding. She stepped outside and leaned against the outer wall. Rea smiled as she felt the cold breeze on her face. "Ah, this feels great..." She muttered, hearing the distinct sound of a bike in the distance.

What a day this was. what a few weeks really. first this worthless job, next the worthless clientel, and now the burn. The self pity party would have continued if it wasn't for seeing a little girl on the side walk. Grinding to a halt, the deliveryman began to inspect the blood around her nose.
"You ok kid?"
Rea looked at the man. "Oh, i'm fine. Just broke my nose, running into a wall while playing my flute." She held out the long, silver instrument for him to see. She put it back in her pocket. "It hurts.... a lot, but i'll be fine. Thanks for the concern." She giggled. "So, what are you doing around here? I don't usually see too many people come this way."

"Oh me?" he ask quixotically. "Oh I'm just passing through on a delivery. I think we should get you to a hospital."
In a sort of rushed manner, the man snapped down the bike stand and walked towards the girl.
Toxyn wasn't in any of a shape at all to do anything to her, but Elevir wouldn't mention that. He didn't trust her as it was, and rubbing salt in the wound wouldn't help much at all. Especially when he really did need her help, whether he wanted to accept it or not.
"... We need to take care of those gashes on your back," Elevir spoke, "But I don't have the supplies. I could go get them, but you'd have to wait here for a bit."
Usually, Rea would run away... yet, she had no idea why she didn't do the same to this guy... she felt a strange, unfamiliar feeling, trust. Rea slowly walked towards him. "Um... okay..."

Ringing his bell, they sped off into the distance.

"I only watched him die, that's all." She replied, wrapping her arms in front of her chest to stop their shaking. "He may have been the one I cared about, but you're the one who took my gift from me." Now the gloves were off.

"Your gift?" Larezo asked quizicolly. "What ever do you mean?" The intruder slowly got up from the soft velvet cushioning, staring into Eva's eyes.
"Gift, gift, what ever cold you mean? I'm not from that abc series deary. I'm something much more entertaining with a much wider scope.
Gently, Larenzo put his finger to Eva's cheek, sliding it down her jawline.

"I'm sorry" Larenzo grinned "But I can't do that. You see, I didn't steal a thing. The only thing I could have done is broken you and we both know you're too strong for that, right?"

Circling warily, feeling she had to move, Eva watched him. "Maybe you broke my gift. I want it back, Larenzo, and I want you out of my head. Both of you." Her hands clenched in agitation. "Why did you find us?"

He was seriously freaking her out. That was the first thought that came to mind. The second was, why wasn't Victor coming out? They were family, even if it was bad blood. And the third thought was that she should leave him, like now. "Well why don't you go make yourself comfortable, and I'll get you a tip." she smiled sweetly before turning to go into the bedrooms. She opened the door, keeping it only as wide as her body would fit.

Bio: Like most children with gifts, Drake was taken from his mother's hands and taken to the ORPHANAGE. At first he was just taken because of his strange eye color and did not know his gift but soon enough it was revealed when Drake went crazy and caused a lot of damage. He was locked up with the other manics and he stayed in his cell awaiting the time when he could escape. His time came when the king of Manics Larz set him free although unlike the other manics who were slaughtering everybody, Drake just took the opportunity and escaped from the place that held him
Personality: Drake has a split personality. At times he would be a pretty calm guy but other time he will become more brutal and sadistic

"It is?", Leon asked, turning his head to change his view to Rei, "As in how is my scent different?". He wasn't sure what she meant, he knew it had nothing to do with how he got here as he just washed.
"It's...familiar, almost. Like I've smelled it before, or something like it."
She grinned slightly, one of her fangs showing. "You know, it's odd, you don't seem to be bothered at all by the fact that I can pick up scents like this. You're different than most people that I've met, Leon."

Username: Legion
Full Character Name: Larenzo, Kendrith
Age: 22
Appearance:http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/kk28/Twilightindreams/Anime/0a98sbg.jpg
Bio: After being buried in the demolishion, Larz and his fellow survivors took half a year to escape the rubble. Starving, they decided to feed upon few of the gifts who were not manics. The rest were drafted as lackies and spies. Larenzo's troop traveled through the forests for three days until reaching the city of Gifts. By that point, Larenzo said screw it and ordered his army to disperse into the populace. He spent the rest of his time going from job to job, trying to find his will to complete his plan. I believes soon that day will come.
Personality: sadistic, cruel, inconsiderate, and a master at reading things upside down, Larz is everything you'd not entirely consider for an evil overlord. He'd probably agree, but that would just so he could get close enough to scramble your brains. However, on rare occasion, Larz has a kinder side. Usually it is intended for those he considers pets.
Weapon [If any]: claws

Leon returned his sight back out the window and remained silent for a moment, "Is that all your questions?", he asked as he folded his arms and lent back on his left foot slightly.
Rei studied Leon for a moment, then walked next to him. He was several inches taller than her, and looked fairly strong. Once fully recovered, she didn't doubt that he'd be a strong ally.
"You in a rush or something? I'm pretty new in town, not sure if it'd be wise to let me loose on my own," she said, "considering I'm somewhat of a bounty hunter."
Looking at him again, she said, "Besides, I want to know why your scent is familiar. Where're you from?"
OOC:// TwilightBlader, we aren't in need of another antagonist. It may kill the storyline.

IC:// Elevir nodded, then took to the air. She came back moments later with a bag, stepping over to where Toxyn was hiding.
Images and thoughts flashed through her mind from the building the two were hiding behind.
... We have to get out of here... Elevir thought, although remembering the condition Toxyn was in less than seconds after. If he couldn't walk, then she'd only to hope Larenzo wouldn't notice them.
She kneeled down next to where Toxyn hid, hugging his knees again.
"I can help you now," she said.

"We should explore the town I guess, it'd be easier to gather our bearings in a pair", Leon said as he walked over to the door and opened it. He stopped in the door way and turned to see Rei, "...And I don't remember where I'm from", he stated, knowing only of The Orphanage which he refused to speak of. "Shall we go then?", he asked as he continued out the door.

11-25-2009, 02:06 AM
Rei sensed his hesitation. "You're an interesting one, Leon. I'm hoping no one's got a bounty on your head, it'd be a shame to have to hunt you," she thought.
"Yeah, I guess it would be easier," Rei agreed.
She followed him out the door, then stopped him. "By the way, my name's Rei Verd, though back in the North most...employers called me Wolf. If we meet anyone and they ask what my name is, tell them Wolf."

Rea sat on the ground beside the bike, waiting for Larenzo. She looked at the building where he had entered. She trusted this man... maybe... she could trust him enough to tell him about her gift? "I guess..." Rea muttered.

She opened the door, keeping it only as wide as her body would fit.
The light from the door cracked poured into the bedroom, exposing the director, sitting ramrod straight on his bed, gripping a twelve gauge automatic shotgun painted a shadow black.
"Eva, I'm sorry, but I had to gather information. If he wanted us dead we would have been before we even knew he was their. Anyone else would be setting a trap, but given him, god only knows."
Victor gripped his gun tighter, whitening his knuckles so that his foster daughter wouldn't see him trembling. Thoughts rampaged though his head, drowning in a sea of confusion and fear. His son, how could he have survived? how did he find them? Were their others? The tormented man painstakingly got off of his bed, gritting his teeth through the stiffness and brittlness of his skin.
"Eva..." he said, pumping his gun "Let's go tip the delivery boy."

She lowered her head, biting her lip, then moved out of the way, her whole body trembling. If need be, she had to pull one last shift together.

Larenzo sat comfortably, inspecting the apartment. Nice rug, cream colored walls decorated with gold leaf, soft wood bookshelves covered with assorted nicknacks and ornaments. It was a very nice little place to crash.
He would have given a more detailed inspection, but to his right, the gleaming barrel of a gun popped out from behind the stairwell.

'What do I need to do' he thought. He just wanted to get this done and over with. Already, he felt like he was too vulnerable, so he figured that since he'd be uncomforatable anyway, he might as well just do as told. Though his pride was taking a hit from this.

"Oh hai!" Larenxo said excited voice.
"Is that you father? What a surprise. I thought you found a rock to crawl under and die in. I have to admit, this is one damn fine rock. And you even took in Eva. My my Director, you really let yourself go."
"Enough!" Victor shouted, taking ame with his shotgun.

"Ah, I see. Well, to be honest, I wasn't born in the North, I've just been living there for the past two years. It's...cold. Not much life or enforcement, so it's a prime place for criminals and the like to hide. I made a living by tracking those people down and turning them in," she sighed, and continued, "But that's not to say they actually liked me there. I was just the only thing that could track people through blizzards and stand the cold."
Rei looked back at Leon. "And it's not the North I escaped from. It was something far worse, more like Hell than anything. About a month ago I was in a local pub and I overheard a few men talking of a 'town of freaks in the South', so I decided to investigate. I figured I could get some answers, or find a better life, something along those lines."

"I suppose you could say that, though my ears help as well. I can hear things most can't, but both senses can be a weakness. There's been more than one occasion where a strong scent or loud noise has screwed up one - or both - senses."

It's the reason I barely use my wings, they where torn off every time they grew back. I still don't understand how my wings kept coming back. But eventually I escaped". Leon then continued into the restaurant to get a table for them.

"Matrix mo fo!"
Making sure he didn't stain his pants, the lunatic scooped up the girl and ran out into the hallway, jumping over the balconey.
Rea gasped as she was grabbed. "L-Lerenzo? What was going on back there? I thought you were just going to make a delivery?" She said, slightly surprised by all of this. What had happened? Why was Lerenzo suddenly in a gun fight? Who WAS that old man that shot at Lerenzo? So many questions...

Rea hesitated for a moment, then spoke, "I am not an ordinary human... I have an ability... some may call it... a 'gift'... I call it a curse... if we are being chased, my ability may help..." Rea said.

"Oh, I know you have a gift girly. Everyone in this city has one. To be honest, I don't see how you didn't notice."
Larenzo blinked before letting out a dull groan
"Just realized, I don't know your name."

Leon looked at the table. "Looks like we're both hiding from the same thing after all", he replied. "Anyway", Leon said grabbing a menu, "What do you want?", he asked.
Rei also looked down. "Yeah...but maybe we could form a partnership? We're trying to hide from the same thing, and with our combined gifts we can probably go unnoticed for a while. Two heads are better than one, right?"
Part of her told her that she said this out of the necessity to survive, but another actually wouldn't mind the company. How long had she lived on her own, after all?
"Er...I dunno, you pick something. At this point I really will eat anything. Except greens," Rei said.
Rea giggled. "Oh? Do you have one? And, my name's Rea. Don't feel bad for not knowing, after all, you said we'd have time for introductions later." She smiled and took her flute out of her pocket. "Anyway, if we are being chased, I can stop or slow time with this."

Larenzo took a sharp corner, tearing down the dank alley way
"Oh, I have one alright. Do you see someone behind us?"
Rea looked back and shook her head. "I don't see anyone. But..." She started playing a sweet, soft, melody on her flute. She stopped after awhile. "I bought us 5, maybe 10 minutes." She looked at him with a serious look.

Larenzo skidded to a halt, looking about his surroundings.
"What you do?" he asked, an eyebrow arched high.
"You want to relax them away?"

"Er...I dunno, you pick something. At this point I really will eat anything. Except greens," Rei said.
"I'll think about it", Leon said to her proposition of a partnership. He quickly chose two meals from the menu, fish and chips (OOC: lol) and got up to order them at the counter before returning to the table. "We just gotta wait now, hopefully it won't be long", he said.
Rea giggled. "Figured you'd ask." She cleared her throat. "Remember? I told you I could slow or stop time with my flute." She smiled at him. "I really don't like using this power... but I suppose I can make an exception for your sake." Rea giggled again.

"Wow Rea." Larenzo murmured quietly
"You truly one amazing kid. Thanks. I'll make this up to you."

Drake had been relaxing on the boxes in the alleyway but to his surprise a motorcycle zoomed past him. It seemed like a girl and a guy was on it trying to escape some thing. "well that was the most exciting thing that happened ever since I got here. that guy kind of looked familiar to me" Drake said jumping up to his feet

"Heh, alright," she said.
After he came back from the counter, she said, "Thanks..."
A few seconds passed, and Rei asked, "So what have you been doing since you escaped?"

A few seconds passed, and Rei asked, "So what have you been doing since you escaped?"
Leon lent back on his seat, "I was just passing by places, looking for somewhere to stay for a while longer than everywhere else", he answered, "What about you?", he asked back while looking over at the kitchen door and back at Rei.

skidding to a halt, Larenzo looked behind him at a bum sitting upon a couple of crates.
"Hey, I know that smuck!"
Spinning around, he parked himself next to the guy, waiting for the time stop to wear off.
Rea smiled. "Don't worry abou-" She noticed Drake. "Smuck?" She giggled at the word. "Who is this guy?"

Rei shrugged. "Like I said, I just went north. I figured that if they sent people out to try and take us back, they wouldn't survive up there. I learned to fight and survive on my own...moved around a lot, following whoever I was hired to follow, slept in snow dug outs, that kind of stuff. Hence the fur I'm wearing, which is becoming increasingly uncomfortable in this weather."
She looked back at Leon. "Do you plan on staying here long?"

Larenzo hooked his fingers into the bum's mouth, contorting his features, smirking as he did.
"He's, oh what's his name... Drake. A lackey of mine."

Drake looked at the people returning towards him. "I wonder if they are coming back to fight" Drake muttered. A dark smile formed "oh dear if they want to fight then I guess I can spill some blood today" Drake said but one the motorcycle got close he got a bit surprised when he saw the driver and smiled again and went and sat on the boxes "yo its been a while hasn't it" Drake said calmly with a cool attitude but was surprised when Larenzo pushed the finger in his mouth "same old Larenzo" Drake tried to say with the finger in his mouth

"Probably, I don't have anywhere else to go and this place is full of people like us unlike everywhere else", Leon said as he noticed a waiter coming with their food.
