    Gaius stood there, visibly shaking with anger. Oh he wanted to punch Ren, to force him to get out of his way. This man that he was defending was truly horrible, and had done things that Gaius never again hoped to bear witness to. He forced himself to calm down just a little bit, and what Ren said helped a lot. He was right, all that was being accomplished was that Gaius was creating rifts, he was doing just as much damage right now as Ezekiel had caused. And it was all because of that anger that sometimes he just couldn't control. He put his hand on his arm, feeling around for the bruises and cuts he used to consistently have. His father had had that same anger, hadn't he?

    His father, beating him day in day out, never missing a day. Maybe that was why Gaius was always getting into fights; because it felt strange not being injured. He hated his father, he'd never forgive him for the upbringing he'd receieved, but more importantly, he was the one that the fire mage blamed for his mother's disappearance. All the yelling, all the physical abuse, all the rage from his father was something that had caused severe depression in Gaius at a young age (it was a miracle he'd overcome it as well as he did), and now here he was, teetering on the edge of doing the same thing here. Perhaps that was why his mother had left and not come back. She'd promised to come back, but she never had, and Gaius had never found out why but...had she seen her opportunity to escape all of it, and taken it? It was a distressing thought, that a mother could abandon her only child so easily. Was Gaius himself going to allow himself to become the man his father was? No, never.

    The flames on his hands finally died down, disappearing along with the anger inside of the boy. "I guess..I don't know, maybe it should be left to the magic council. He tried to destroy our guild and failed, lets not do it for him. I don't know about you guys, but I don't want this guild to be torn apart" the red head said, speaking kind of softly as he spoke. He turned around and walked a few steps towards the exit. "I'm sorry for causin' so much trouble. I just didn't want Levi to have died for nothin'. You can figure out what to do with him, I don't want any part of it anymore" Gaius said, before walking out of the place and starting to make his way back to Sapphire Eclipse's guild hall. It was a long walk, but maybe the fresh air and quiet would do him some good. He certainly hoped so.

    "She's right, he'll kill us the moment he can. He..he tried to end us, all of us. He's probably just pretending to have a heart, pretending like he's some human. Did you see the look in his eyes? He was ready to murder us, and he wouldn't have even looked back! Why the hell would you defend someone like him? Are you wanting us all to die too?" Gaius asked, the flames around his hands getting more intense. He pointed at the marks on the ground; the only remnants of Levi. "What about him? Are you that stupid that you're going to just let him get away with that? You're talking about second chances, but how 'bout him? WHERE WAS HIS SECOND CHANCE HUH? IT WAS DESTROYED, TAKEN FROM HIM BY THAT FUCKING BASTARD RIGHT THERE! AND HE SAYS SORRY AND THATS FINE? MAYBE YOU SHOULD GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE TOO, YOU WANNA GO AND MURDER SOME OF OUR FRIENDS WITH HIM?" Gaius roared, getting more and more worked up by the second.

    Skadi stood up now, deciding to speak. She gave a quick glance towards Silvia, doing her best to fake a smile. "Stop it! Please! Are we really arguing this right now? This man has done some terrible things, and believe me when I say I hate him. I hate him so much, and I will never forgive him" Skadi said, now glaring at Ezekiel. "But is killing him the answer? We fought to stop a man who was trying to play God, and now we're trying to do exactly what he was trying to. Look at him, do you see the eyes of a murderer? If you'd asked me a few minutes ago, I would have said yes, but now? Now he's just a man that's been given too much power. Don't kill him, give him a second chance. Please, there's been too much suffering as it is" Skadi said, physically unable to say any more. Her voice was breaking, emotion was getting to her, and she didn't trust herself to talk anymore.

    The tough battle was over, and Ezekiel was defeated. However, Skadi wasn't smiling, in fact much of the paranoia that had made its way into her body after Yana's death still remained. She made her way over to Silvia and sat down next to the girl. Skadi herself looked stressed out and a little sad, which was an understatement, but she was doing her best to keep it together. "Silvia, if it wasn't for you many of us wouldn't be standing here. You played an important part, you shouldn't be saying sorry. None of us should be saying sorry, the only words that we should be saying to each other right now is thank you. Thank you Silvia, for keeping us alive and trying your hardest" the ice mage said, trying her best to sound reassuring and encouraging as she spoke, but damn it was hard.

    Wearily, Caleb got up. The healing magic from Evanora had helped, but it wasn't enough to get him back on his feet in a hurry. He walked over to Skadi and knelt down next to her. "Are you alright?" he asked, to which he got a slow nod. He could tell right away that she wasn't alright, but she didn't want the others to know. They'd all been through so much, but he knew the girl well enough to know that she'd been through more than most, and yet she continued acting as though everything was okay. She was much stronger than he gave her credit for. At Thomas' suggestion, he turned to look towards Ezekiel. "I agree. He shouldn't be allowed to go, but taking him as a hostage would be dangerous. He might work with the girl we captured and escape, and that would cause more trouble for all of us. I don't know what should be done about it, but that's not it" he stated, giving his opinion.

    Gaius could remain silent no longer. He'd been knocked out twice recently, and had been injured countless times, so he was pretty fed up. Somehow, they had defeated Ezekiel, and that was awesome, but the way things were going now were not the way he had thought they should. "Ra, I don't see why you're holdin' this guy's hand. He's your brother, but that doesn't mean he deserves anything. This guy beat up Caleb and sent him with a declaration of war" damn, he'd used a big word, he was impressing himself already. "He tried to destroy our guild, he hurt our friends," he continued, determined to make his point, "he tried to kill all of us, and he did kill one of us" the red headed fire mage said. He remembered the look of the guild member he'd never gotten to meet, vaporised in an instant with no hesitation whatsoever from Ezekiel, remembered the feelings of rage, of hatred flowing through him; feelings he had once forgotten and wished he hadn't remembered.

    "Takin' him as a hostage is a stupid idea. Thomas is right, he'll just come after us again. He took the life of one of our friends" Gaius said, flames appearing around his hands as he spoke. He took a step forward and glared at Ezekiel. "I say he pays for it with his own" the fire mage said, his tone colder and more serious than anything he had ever said.

    "Apology?" Glen echoed. He'd had one hell of a day so far. He'd been nearly killed by Karina, he'd gone chasing after fairies, seen Karina develop a soul, been just about killed by a fireball flinging Beucefilous (which he narrowly survived by diving off of the back of the dinosaur), and he had been targeted horribly by all the heartless around him at that moment. All of that couldn't have possibly prepared him for an apology from Karina though. Was she really that bad of a person after all? His head hurt. Too much thinking, not enough drinking. Taking another big gulp of his alcohol, he immediately felt a little better.

    The music piece. It was all the fault of that bloody musical piece, and that soul manipulating mouse. Mickey was nice enough, but he was causing far too much change in Karina to be a regular mouse. He was probably a wizard, casting spells of friendship and comradery and...holy crap, he was the gay Yen Sid! "I'll get the piece! Protect me, cover me and I'll save everything!" he shouted, before charging at the poison plant that had the music piece, determined to obtain it and erase all thought from his mind.

    Just as Gexln was about to show his opponents just what they were dealing with, he heard the sound of a portal opening nearby him. Looking in the direction, he saw a new opponent entering the battle; and he looked as though there was no intention of holding back. Gexln readied his blade to defend himself, but just as he was about to be hit, the man was kicked away from him by somebody that was very familiar to him. "Xero? What the hell are you doing here? I thought I told you to-" the Nobody began, clearly confused as another fighter entered the fray, once again kicking Xross out of the way. "And Beuce? You brought Beuce? I would've rather died, he's never going to let me live this down!" Gexln complained. He then ceased his complaints immediately. "Well, I'm not going anywhere, no matter what either of you say. This is my fight, you should go back before you get involved" he stated.

    If that wasn't enough of a shock for one day, it was then that Stratos appeared. "Hey Stratos, haven't seen you in forever. Stuff happened, I became a Nobody, got married, had a couple of kids. You know, standard stuff. The name's Gexln now, by the way" the Wanderer of the Dark said simply. His attention then turned back towards Xero as he heard the sound of weapons clashing. Looking back over to her, he saw her holding off an attack by Dane. Taking off, Gexln rushed over to help her.

    [​IMG]
    As Gexln neared, Dane decided to make a move to change the situation he was in. The numbers were against them now with Xander taking off, Slave running away too, and Caleb's kid leaving. The kid wouldn't have been much use anyway, but cannon fodder was always useful. Looking at Xero straight in the eyes, he recognised her almost immediately. She probably had no idea who he was, but he'd kept tabs on Gexln for many years now. "Oh, it's you. That's a pretty scythe you have there in your hands. Pretty useless, that is" he said, putting a little more force behind himself and shoving Xero forward, breaking the parry as he turned his attention to Gexln. Acting quickly, the man angled his scythe so that he blocked the Nobody's attack, and then simply thrust his hand into the Wanderer of the Dark's chest, knocking him back and off his feet.


    "Come on Gexln, You used to be cool. Remember when the darkness flowed freely through your veins, helping you make decisions? Are you really going to let a woman change that, undo all the work I did? She screwed things up for both of us, you just don't know it yet" the shadow reaper said, cold edge to his voice as he spoke. He stepped forward and gave a mock bow to Xero. "Hello there, beautiful lady. Your looks are as beautiful as the smell of a thousand corpses blowing in the wind, your technique as intriguing as a defeated soldier's will to go on after everything has been taken away. But where are my manners? My name is Dane Erapper. Destroyer of worlds, slayer of everybody, and the man that's going to torture and murder your husband there, nice to meet you. I hope you enjoy your stay in this castle, it will be short-lived" Dane said, radiating confidence as he spoke. Leaping forward, he swung his scythe in a low arc hoping to hit both Gexln and Xero in one strike.

    [​IMG]
    Caleb was disturbed. He hadn't expected Gexln to have help in the battle, let alone help from Beuce and Xero. He had fought alongside them long ago, and he had trusted them with his life, but now it appeared they were enemies. As the strike raid from Beuce was launched at Caleb, the defender of the light sidestepped slightly and parried the keyblade with his sword, sending it back towards its wielder. "Xero, Beuce. I remember when you fought for what was right, when you proved yourselves to be capable warriors fighting for the greater good. What happened to those people? Sapphire has gotten out of hand since last we met, and I intend to stop her from causing anymore harm. If I have to raise my blade against friends to defend the defenceless, then so be it!" he shouted. Rushing towards Beuce, he decided to work with Xross' attack. He summoned a shortsword quickly and hurled it at Beuce, before running towards the white-haired warrior and attempting a slash at his stomach.

    Audrey nearly screamed as she was grabbed by the girl. Everything was too much for her, too much fighting going on. She nodded at Alissia's explanation though. This girl seemed a little different to the others, like she hated the fighting just as much as Audrey did, and that made the little girl feel a bit more comfortable. As Xander moved to protect them, Audrey's eyes widened first in shock, then she felt a little safer, but then that feeling of safety was replaced by a feeling of fear.

    Scrambling to her feet, the youngster hurried next to Xander and began hitting his legs, not with too much force but enough to hopefully get his attention. "What are you doing? Go help my daddy! Go save him! I can take care of myself!" she cried, her little fists pounding away.

    So, tonight I got deep. Reeeeeeal deep, and I figured I would vent here. This isn't a complaint, no ranting or anything like that, I just wanted to share this personal moment with the community that has become like a second home to me; a message of inspiration almost for those who think there's no way out of a horrible situation.

    February the 4th, 2015

    Just got out of a shower, and showers are generally when I get real deep and into my thoughts; this time was no different.

    I saw an episode of The Flash, where he was dealing with his past and came to the conclusion that fear of something that happened 14 years ago was keeping him from moving on. It got me thinking; how true was that for me? Obviously without the 14 years part, but wasn't I essentially doing the same thing?

    This Ornithophobia, I've had it since I was a kid, but it never truly screwed me over until a year and a half ago. What happened at that time? I got a job, and I was actually socialising. Change. It's what occurs to mess up with what's happening in your life, making it either better or worse. My natural paranoia usually thinks it's going to be worse.
    So, upon realizing that things were changing...did I just shove the fear of change onto a bigger fear? Is my fear of birds really not as big as I make it seem to myself, and it's more an excuse to not get a job, and not progress?
    Magpies attack people, but they never really hurt them too badly, certainly not enough that I should screw up my life because of it. Maybe it's time I overcame that fear and- actually, you know what, i'm not even calling it a fear anymore. I'm going to call it exactly what it is; an excuse. An excuse for not doing anything that would jeapordise the life i've got right now, an excuse for not getting a job and pretending i'm perfectly fine with it.

    These last two weeks that I've been dating a girl, i've been plagued with paranoia and the same questions over and over again: "How can I make others happy if I can't make myself happy?", "What if I can't be the boyfriend that she truly deserves?", things like that. And...I think I found some answers tonight. God I love you comic book creators, you guys solve some of my biggest life issues with your shows, haha.

    If I can't make myself happy, then I can't make others happy, right? Wrong. I bring joy to plenty around me, I just don't let myself see it. When I'm in a call, plenty of comments I make bring joy and laughter to my friends, and even when I'm not trying to be funny, they know they have somebody to come to if they have a problem, that I'll listen to them. And just knowing that they know that brings me a small amount of joy, enough to put a smile on my face, and that's a start.

    As for not being the boyfriend that she deserves...well, I think I set the bar too high, though probably not in the way most would think. In my opinion, she deserves nothing short of perfection. But, perfection isn't a thing. Nothing's perfect, no matter what people say. Fear, sadness, everything associated with that, it's all part of being human. Being in a relationship isn't about making each other constantly happy, it's caring about them for who they are, seeing them at their best and worst and not judging them, just being there for them.

    So, maybe I don't have to be an absolute god when it comes to being in a relationship. She's seen me at my best, and at my worst, and she still cares about me (god only knows why XD) so obviously I'm doing something right! So I just have to keep being myself. Not the sad, depressed me; that guy is done, I want to be full of the laughter and joy that I hope to bring to others, and I want THAT to be the me that gets the opportunity to be in a relationship with a woman.

    Tomorrow I go to hand out resumes and try to get my licence. Actually, no. Tomorrow is the day I go to get a job and get my licence, because there will be no failure. And if there is, if I'm wrong, then I'm going to keep going at it until it works, because I've lived this lifestyle far too long. I have the motivation to change, and for once in my life I'm genuinely not afraid, I say bring it on, I can handle whatever comes my way!


    So yeah, that was a diary entry in the diary I've recently started (damn it helps). Criticism and such isn't needed, and I don't particularly need advice since as you can see I am feeling much, much better. I just wanted to put it here so people know that it does get better.

    If anyone reading this has issues of their own and need someone to talk to, I would be more than happy to help in any way whatsoever :)
