GMofDoom:THE ONLY THING I'LL TELL JOO ABOUT PLOT :: everyone jolts awake in a vast expanse of bright white light, quite the opposite from Death, as their "standard" agent characters. They remember the sagas they just went through without being brought back to Death and realize that absolutely nothing was resolved in the last one. * GMofDoom nods Chylshim:((Dude, its the matrix!)) GMofDoom:any questions? Shyathy :(It's the Construct. :P Not the Matrix.) Seraya :Can we get cookies in this Construct? n.n Shyathy :Or guns? Lost of guns? :P Shyathy :*Lots GMofDoom :maybe guns =oP Chylshim :porn! @_@ Sahm :(im gonna make a chara right now. He is a ninja, in good shape, good at stealth, mamrtial arts, traditional ninja weopons, and he has one mystic item, a shadow amulet that allows him to fade into the shadows, and and move around like a shadow to confuse his enimies. Im doing this because the draconian just scares to many of the NPC's. He has a katana, black ninja clothes, throwing stars, and those smoke bombs that sting your eyes.) Seraya :Eggdrops... lots of them. GMofDoom :are there any actual questions? Seraya :Do we have to, GM of Doom? ;.; Shyathy :(Where's the app Sahm? :P) GMofDoom :no GMofDoom :oi, just go with yer applied for character at this point. GMofDoom :anyway GMofDoom :we ready? we go? ***:Sahm is now known as Ramus Chylshim :are we there yet? * Chylshim ready GMofDoom :aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand GO. * GMofDoom waves the flag. Seraya :(Must run must run must run must run) GMofDoom :*cue bright expanse* * Shyathy groans and slowly sits up... * Chylshim blinks his eyes and looks around a bit Shyathy :Ow.. what the hell happened? Seraya: Dah.. *rubs her eyes as she sits up, blinking blearily around* * Ramus cracks his back making a sound like a small avalanche. Chylshim: ((No Yeyj?)) GMofDoom: ((no yeyj.)) * Chylshim stands up and starts walking in a random direction * Ramus flexes his wings. "Any idea where we are?" * Seraya pushes to her feet and looks around, rubbing one eye psuedo-sleepily. GMofDoom: *a door appears suddenly near the group, on a wall that no-one had noticed was there.* GMofDoom: *footsteps can be heard in the distance, perhaps from behind the door* * Chylshim is glad he didn't walk in that direction * Chylshim perks his ear at the sound of footsteps and glances over at the door * Seraya blinks, and in a slight panic, checks for her device so that it's still on her. GMofDoom: *the door opens, revealing the oh-so familiar form of Raion. He steps inside* * Ramus jumps backwards swinging his tail at everyones general direction. Chylshim: Raion ((^^;;))((^^;;)) Seraya: *whack!* _ Hey! * Chylshim nods at Raion in a silent greeting. GMofDoom: ((yes i'm going to be raion for today =oP because I know things ) )) Chylshim: ((fine by me :p)) Ramus: (who's Raion?) * Seraya eyes Ramus a moment before looking back, "Raion, what happened..? What's wrong?" Chylshim: ((helper at death)) GMofDoom: *Several tall and *very* muscular figures follow him in, all of them armed with a long weapon that is completely foreign to everybody. They seem to be part bird. It would seem that Raion is their prisoner.* * Shyathy blinks. "Well &#$^" GMofDoom: Raion *gives Ser a "don't ask any questions" sort of look and focuses his gaze on the floor* Seraya: (*starts idly popping balloons on the *very* muscular figures*) * Chylshim eyes the figures for a moment, sizing thme up and pondering * Seraya swallows, frowning a bit. * Ramus takes a deep breath and gets the bellows in his abdomen going in case he needs his fire breath. GMofDoom: *A final Bird-person steps through the door, shutting it behind him. There totals twelve bird people in the group. They size you all up before chattering in a language none of the group can understand* * Seraya checks her pocket and tugs out her device, seeing if it'll translate the avion language. GMofDoom: *Ser's screen instantly starts translating. Odd, it doesn't usually work that fast* GMofDoom: :B-P Captain, the last in the door: "...don't think it'll hold them. They're not as dumb as Trinnyan makes them out to be." * Ramus flashes his hand in draconian sign language (which he tried to teach the group in the previous saga) "I don't like them they smell of violence and mureder." Chylshim: (whatever mureder is :p) Seraya: (Muddier?) Ramus: (murder) * Seraya 's frown deepens but looks up at the avions with a frustrated expression, as if the device weren't working. *t* Hold us...? Who are these people? GMofDoom: :Blue-ish B-P: "She said it would do fine." GMofDoom: :Red B-P: "We have already integrated their leader. There's no way they could join up. It's a large place." GMofDoom: *There's a pause in conversation as there seems to be much thought going on* * Shyathy has her device out, oulling the same bit as Ser.. * Seraya taps at the screen, getting the device to identify the bird people's race and planet. * Shyathy turns her back and does a quick chek on her Magic by trying to create a small whips of flame in her hands.. Ramus: (you missed me bitching about the slow pace of things) Chylshim: (welcome to mystic eyes :p) Seraya: (With sessions that can go 5 hours, you expect a lot to happen in 15 minutes?) GMofDoom: ((woo plot!)) Ramus: (5 hours! its 12:00 AM here!) Seraya: (Hope you got plenty of sleep last night. ^_^) GMofDoom: ((we have a good time rping, sahm ^^)) Ramus: (Can't the GM have a general plot guide though of before hand? GMofDoom: ((i do.)) Ramus: (I know) Ramus: (Lets get back to the birds) * Shyathy turns her back and does a quick chek on her Magic by trying to create a small whips of flame in her hands.. GMofDoom: ((*indicates lil blue notebook*)) * Seraya looks back up towards the avian creatures curiously. Seraya: (Notebook of DOOOOOOM.) GMofDoom: *Shya's magic works...sort of.* Shyathy: (Define sort of, Ms. GM os Doom. :P) GMofDoom: *Ser's device shows that they are a species called Keepers. There is no planet listing available on them* Shyathy: *of GMofDoom: ((umm..she can do stuff, but it's not exactly what she wants. have fun from there. =oP)) Seraya: *t* Keepers... Seraya: (Like casting a fireball actually makes your clothes burn away and such. :P) Ramus: Keepers, and talk of holding us, this doesn't sound so good. Chylshim: ((kinky :p)) Chylshim: ((nezu poo, after the rp, can I see my ap so I can change it a bit? :p)) * Shyathy grumbles as the flames flare up and die away quickly.. GMofDoom: :Keeper Captain: "...very well. Integrate them." *heavy sigh* GMofDoom: ((yessir.)) GMofDoom: ((...good lord they sound like a soccer team o.o; *kicks her bird people*)) Chylshim: ((GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL)) * Seraya frowns at that translation, looking over at Shyathy and Raion. * Shyathy winces and debates trying a more powerful spell.. Chylshim: :Raion: (don't look at me, I just make the cookies...) Seraya: (Not you. :P) GMofDoom: :Blue and Red Keepers: *take hold of Raion* Seraya: (The Raion-ball is midfield...) GMofDoom: :Albino Keeper: *exits through the door with the captain* Seraya: (*facefault* @_@;; Don't mind me.) GMofDoom: :All the rest of the Keepers: *stand ready in case anyone tries anything...funny.* * Ramus assumes battle stance by reversing his knees so that they bend backwards, but stays put. Chylshim: ((GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL)) * Seraya moves over to beside Shyathy, asking in a whisper, "What do we do...?" GMofDoom: *an alarmingly loud gong-sound rattles the expanse, and before anyone can do anything, everyone with the exception of Raion and the Keepers are in the middle of a very pretty forest, on an overgrown path* * Seraya cringes at the gong and covers her eyes. Seraya: (Erm.. ears x.x) Seraya: (My face is shuffled around it seems. o_O) Chylshim: (ooo, picasso *pokes at Ser's face) * Shyathy winces.. "Ow." Seraya: (*reshuffles* '_') Ramus: (*reaches out and piches Sers face* Got your nose!) Seraya: ... who were they? The Keepers, the device said... Seraya: (*bites Ramus*) GMofDoom: *the atmosphere is slightly humid and warm, and the sound of birds and usual friendly forest noises can be heard. For those who have been to Earth, this place seems quite like it...except...lest modern.* GMofDoom: ((*less)) * Chylshim removes his hood and looks around at the new atmosphere * Shyathy points her hand at a nearby tree and casts a spell.. "Fireball!" GMofDoom: *Tree is burnt to a crisp by expected fireball* * Shyathy nods, approvingly.. "One more test.." Seraya: This isn't going to involve a wide area of destruction, is it? * Shyathy shrugs.. "Depends on your definition of wide area.." ^^ Ramus: (how thick is the forest canopy?) Seraya: Is it visible from space? * Shyathy closes her eyes.. "Darkness from twilight, crimson from blood that flows..." Seraya: !! *grips Shya-chan's arm tightly* NOT THAT @_@ * Shyathy acks and stops, "But I need to make sure it works." ;.; Chylshim: ((* Seraya orgasms)) Seraya: (What the...) GMofDoom: ((it's not terribly thick. the canopy, that is.)) Chylshim: ((Powerful spell)) Seraya: Your fireball worked, why wouldn't a Dragu Slave? @_@ Seraya: (*blinks confusedly*) Ramus: (Dragu Slave?) * Seraya sighs and rubs her face, "What happened back there, why were they taking Raion away?" * Shyathy shrugs.. "Fireball is a Fire Shamanisim. I have to make sure my Black Magic still works." Ramus: (Dragu Slave?) GMofDoom: *Humming can be heard in the distance, and eventually a full-out song, sung by a rather young sounding voice* Seraya: Cast something... smaller? *blinks around at the voice* GMofDoom: ((giant spell from slayers. much destruction. badness.)) * Chylshim raises an eyebrow and turns towards the voice Shyathy: That's the only Black Magic I know.. o.o Ramus: I think I will go scouting. *gives Shyathy an off skew look, spreads his wings and flies up throught the canopy for a better view. GMofDoom: *a little girl riding a fat little pony can be seen riding along the trail, some saddle bags full of flowers, others are just stuffed with something that cannot be seen. Her clothing is ornate, but dirty. Obviously she likes to have fun. She's singing her lungs out, and her little pony is trodding along happily* Seraya: (ChibiSusan n.n) * Ramus sees...... GMofDoom: ((woo chibi me! *cheers wildly*)) Seraya: (Kawaii :D) * Seraya looks back down at her device to figure out what planet they're on this time at least. GMofDoom: *Ser's device says that this is planet Earth.* Ramus: (Throw me a bone here, what do I see?) Seraya: ..? *checks what current year, then* GMofDoom: ((oh yeah. sorry about that.)) * Shyathy blinks and glances at Ser's device.. "Isn't that Ryan's home planet?" Seraya: Yeah.. but I thought it was a wasteland..? GMofDoom: *Ramus can see that they are on an average sized island in the middle of what seems to be a strait. Nearby, a *huge* metropolis type city can be seen. Much of it seems to be made of gold* GMofDoom: ((hold up a sec guys, I must reference my year properly)) Seraya: (Makes Ms. GM work ) Ramus: ( Ramus is from an alternate reality earth so he knows quite a bit, minus the magic and mythical creatures) Shyathy: (I don't remeber that in his app.) Ramus: (it said Middle Earth, and Tolkiens world is a lot like our except with magic and mythical creatures, but Im talking, animals, humans, forests etc.) Shyathy: (Middle Earth isn't Earth. The Geography is completely different.) Ramus: (I meant geology) Shyathy: (What would the geology have to do with scouting? :P) * Ramus lands GMofDoom: ((well all we're dealing with now is geography, so geology is moot.)) GMofDoom: ((and game is on pause because I have to look up something.)) Ramus: Were on an island on a strait. Were close to what appears to be a huge gilded city. Ramus: sdf Ramus: sdf Ramus: asdf Ramus: asdf Ramus: (sorry that was accidental, *dont ask) Shyathy: (*asks :P) GMofDoom: *Ser's device cannot give an actual date for some reason, and only says that it is pre-BC. This would mean very little to anyone not knowing how Earth's dates are used.* GMofDoom: ((alrighty then, cannot find it and I don't want to hold you people up any longer.)) * Seraya shakes her head, "Pre-BC? What's that supposed to mean?" GMofDoom: *The fat little pony pauses mid-step a good ways away from the group* * Shyathy shrugs, "Is Ryan around..? He'd know.." GMofDoom: ((and Pre-BC sounds stupid. Lets just say BC.)) GMofDoom: ((I'm also an idiot, if anyone would like to know.)) Seraya: (We love you anyway, GM of Doom n.n) Ramus: (I was thinking were are the dinosaurs.) * Seraya sighs quietly and looks back at the little girl and her fat little pony. GMofDoom: *Little girl's singing stops abruptly as she glances around alertly, talking softly to the pony.* Seraya: ( pony You don't have to call me fat every time. ;.;) GMofDoom: ((no, not that far back. just...BC.)) * Shyathy is busy making sure her magic functions.. "Aqua Create!" *SPLASH!* She accidentally drenches Ser... Seraya: Ga-hey! Seraya: First a dragon whacks me with his tail and now this... GMofDoom: *Little girl spots the group and coaxes her pony into going further forward, until finally they are even with the group. She is wearing robes elabortely decorated, making you think of some sort of Greek influence, though not entirely so.* * Ramus hides knowing that humans in primitive times are scared shitless of anything that looks like a dragon (he knows because of her clothes) * Seraya wrings out her hair, blinking at the girl and her pony. GMofDoom: :Little Girl: *places her hands on her hips and addresses Shyathy in a demanding tone in some form of Ancient Greek language* GMofDoom: :Fat Little Pony: *snorts and tries to nibble on Ser's hair* * Seraya erks and tugs her hair back, "Stoppit." * Ramus looks at pony from the shrubs and licks his lips. GMofDoom: :Fat Little Pony: *pins his ears back at Ser and bares his teeth* GMofDoom: :Little Girl: *smacks her pony and continues to look at Shyathy for an answer* GMofDoom: :Fat Little Pony: *starts at the whack and perks his ears up, giving Ser a mean look before pretending to be interested in the trail* * Seraya sighs and taps at her device to get it back into translator mode. * Shyathy blinks and pulls out her device to translate whatever was said. o.o Ramus: (Do I have a device?) Shyathy: (Mind you Shyathy speaks Memphobian if there's no Translator. ^^) GMofDoom: :Little Girl: *repeating herself, slowing herself down and talking to them like they were idiots* "I said, who are you and how did you get here? You do not look to be from here." GMofDoom: ((memphobian? o.O)) GMofDoom: ((yes ramus, all agents have devices.)) Ramus: (Do I?) GMofDoom: ((yes.)) Shyathy: (Yes. o.o Shyathy is from Memphobus. Not Earth. She doesn't speak English or Common or such natively. I've been assuming her device actls like a Universal Translator or something. o.o) * Shyathy shrugs, "I'm Shyathy Jayld, Sorceress Extrodinaire. And to be truthful.. I just appeared here.." o.o * Ramus uses his device to key in a phrase and then repeats it in Memphobian, using his deep rolling bass voice and the ech of the forest to make it sound like it is coming from everywhere. "I am the guardian spirit of the forest, this are my guests treat them with respect or I shall send forth terrible beasts to smite your city" Ramus is still hidden. GMofDoom: ((yes it does, but your devices were all reset so you have to re-do stuff =oP *patpats the Keepers* languages can be loaded into yourself so you automatically understand, and most devices are set to do that by default.)) Ramus: (*echo) Seraya: (Good thing the girl can't understand Memphobian, but Sera and Shya can. :P) Shyathy: (Right, so the girl prolly wouldn't understand Shya. :P) * Seraya sweatdrops at the Dragon's threat and says back in Memphobian, "Not the best first contact you've ever had.." GMofDoom: :Little Girl: *blinks, not understanding* Ramus: (sorry I thought the girl spoke memphobian) * Ramus repeats again in the gree language. Ramus: (*greek) * Shyathy pokes a few buttons on her device and tries again.. "Ano.. I said: "I'm Shyathy Jayld, Sorceress Extrodinaire. And to be truthful.. I just appeared here.." " * Seraya groans and contemplates letting Shya-chan test her black magic on Ramus. GMofDoom: :Little Girl: *narrows her eyes and yells into the forest* "Otya! I don't fall for those tricks anymore" GMofDoom: :Little Girl: *looks Shyathy up and down for several moments* "I think you must talk with my mother." Ramus: *not in greek* Should I show myself? Seraya: Probably not... * Shyathy shrugs. "Nothing better to do.. Lead the way.." o.o * Ramus trails silently from the forest line. GMofDoom: :Little Girl: *smiles and turns her pony around, leading the way back the way she came* "I am Lihlee, and this is Smihth." *pats her pony's neck.* Ramus: (Can we fast foward to the next major event) Shyathy: (Methinks Shya is currently in Freelance Sorceress mode. aka Lina Mode. :P) Seraya: (Oh dear.) GMofDoom: ((don't hurry the magic, sahm. =oP but yes, we were about to fast forward.)) * Seraya mutters at Shyathy about having to walk in wet clothing. * Ramus steps outside of the entire RP scene and presses the button with 2 arrows pointing leftwards and then steps back in. Ramus: (*DO! Thats rewind!) Ramus: (ignore that) Seraya has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) Seraya (~Seraya@h166-102-096-088.ip.alltel.net) has joined the channel ChanServ has opped Seraya GMofDoom: ((did that cut off at all?)) Seraya: (That was not the fastforward button. P) Ramus: (I know ignore it.) GMofDoom: ((it was the eject ser button. =oP)) Seraya: (;.; There's an eject ser button?) GMofDoom: ((....I don't know what you're talking about.)) Seraya: (;.;! Ano.. paste what I missed? 0.0) GMofDoom: ((anyway, did my big desc. thingy cut off at all?)) Shyathy: (Yes. Shyathy: ) GMofDoom: ((where?)) Shyathy: (all of it. :P) Ramus: (BACK TO GAME!) GMofDoom: ((wha? o.o)) GMofDoom: *fast forwards to the group leaving the forest and approaching the huge metropolis. The city is awe-inspiring, much of it made of precious metals and stone. It seems impossible that this could be made without some sort of overwhelmingly great power* Seraya: (Last I saw was Ramus hitting the eject ser button... so i'm no help.) GMofDoom: ((you din miss anything ser.)) Seraya: (Oh good.) GMofDoom: *The gates are guarded by two women dressed in the same elaborate style as Lihlee, and nod the entire group through onto the streets. They pass through several intersections before coming to a domed house, not huge but not small either, with a yard in back.* Seraya: Oh wow... *looks up wide-eyed at the glimmering city* * Ramus decides to risk it and comes into plain view. * Shyathy glances around, grinning. People with this much gold and gems must be quite capable of paying a skilledSorceress well. ^^ Ramus: Or burning her for witchcraft. GMofDoom: *A tall woman is barring the doorway, glaring at Lihlee with stern love.* GMofDoom: :Woman: "Lihlee, I will not let that pony in this house. He belongs outside." * Ramus takes a deep breath to prepare himself for the panic he will cause the people. * Shyathy stops behind Lihlee, glancing the woman over.. GMofDoom: :Woman: *glances at the group behind Lihlee and seems not to be phased in the slightest, even by Ramus.* GMofDoom: :Lihlee: "But..." *pouts and slides off Smihth, she herself being several inches taller than the back of him. She grabs her flowers and hands them to the woman, then lets Smihth through the gate and takes him around back, out of sight.* GMofDoom: :Woman: *smiles wearily at the group* I am Lihlee's mother. Please, come inside. * Shyathy doesn't bother to hesiatate and follows her into the house. o.o * Seraya does hesitate, glancing between Ramus and the door. * Ramus crouches under the door after everyone else has gone inside. * Seraya shrugs to herself, looking around the house as she goes after Shyathy. GMofDoom: *The inside of the house is far larger than the outside would let it on to be. They are in a massive parlor type room, decorated with a mix-mash of styles, from Greek to Egyptian to Asian, and several comfortable but odd looking chairs. The woman sits, and gestures for everyone else to do so.* * Ramus looks for a satisfactory chair. GMofDoom: :Woman: "We have been waiting for you." *smiles welcomingly* Seraya: ..? *glances at Shyathy since she's the one who's able to talk back* * Shyathy sets herself down.. "Waiting for us? We just got here.." o.o * Ramus tries to find a really big chair. GMofDoom: :Woman: "We were informed of your probably arrival by a...colleague of yours. We are quite pleased that you have managed to make it here so quickly. There was much worry you would arrive in the wrong place." GMofDoom: ((*probable)) * Ramus pulls two chairs together and sits. * Shyathy nods slowly, "And where is hear exactly?" GMofDoom: :Woman: "Our great island is with the Pillars of Hercules." * Shyathy blinks cluelessly.. "Is that anywhere near Malfia?" o.o GMofDoom: :Woman: *blinks in confusion* "I'm sorry...I'm not familiar with that name." Seraya: Shya... we're on Earth in the past, not Memphobus... * Shyathy sweatdrops. "Oh.." ^^; * Ramus gives Ser a no, no look. Seraya: Way too much vegetation to be Memphobus anyway. *sighs quietly, not liking to be able to speak so their guests can't understand so adjusts her device* GMofDoom: :Woman: *watches the conversation intently* Shyathy: Well..Since i'm not familiar where with you say this is, I guess we're even.. ^^; GMofDoom: :Woman: *smiles* "Your colleague has asked me to instruct you to stay in the city, and that she will meet with you as soon as she can." * Seraya looks back to Lihlee's mother, now speaking in Greek, "Who was it?" GMofDoom: :Woman: "Oh dear...I can't remember her name. But a young woman, rather tall." Seraya: (It was.. NonChibiSusan :D) * Ramus cuts in. "Well since we don't know whether there really is a "colleague." You could be pulling this out of your behind. We may choose to leave if it seems wisest." Looks back at the others for support. * Shyathy is trying to think of who she could mean... GMofDoom: :Woman: *looks insulted, then turns her attention back to Shya* "She wore her hair in two long braids. She had a sword. Is this enough?" * Seraya whispers to Shyathy, "Yeyj.." * Shyathy nods. "Sounds like Yeyj." * Seraya shakes her head to Ramus, as if to say, 'We know who it is.' GMofDoom: :Woman: "Ah yes, this sounds like her name." Ramus: So she's seen Yeyj and knows what she looks like. That doesn't prove all she says is true. It only raises more questions. For all we know, and this is purely hypothetical mind you, Yeyj could be held here against her will. Or even plotting against us, you know she plays both sides. * Shyathy shrugs and shifts her cloak a bit ignoring Ramus.. "Ano.. Since we're supposed to be making ourselves comfrotable..is there a shop with lighter clothing around here? A Gray Buster spell can only provide so much cooling.." GMofDoom: ((*applauds for Ramus* woo, way to make them think twice! ^^)) Shyathy: (Shyathy doesn't seem to care. She smells the possibility of money, methinks. ^^;) Ramus: Ignore my counsel if you wish, but I shall sta wary. In the end you may even find yourself in my debt. Do not be so quick to trust strangers. * Seraya frowns, considering Ramus's comments. GMofDoom: :Woman: *watches Ramus suspiciously for a few minutes before nodding to Shyathy* "Indeed, down in the Prato district. From here, you follow the street until you reach a wall made of plain mud brick. Walk through it, and you shall be in Prato district." * Shyathy casts a glare at Ramus, You baka. Would you shut it? If they are out to get us, and they think we're on to them, do you think we'll be alive much longer? * Shyathy stands up and pulls her cloak off, testing her access to her XD pocket.. Ramus: Alive? We all died long ago. We are more fortunate than most. *That was said so only agents can understand* GMofDoom: *XD pocket is fully functional.* Shyathy: Agents can still die, baka, in worse ways than a normal human. Yeyj knows that, and they'll know it too if she's working with them. * Shyathy stuffs her cloak into the XD Pocket and pauses.. "What's the currency here?" Ramus: Just because they might be out to "get us" doesn't mean they want to kill us. There are worst things as you just mentioned. GMofDoom: :Woman: "Gold coins." Ramus: Im just a little surprised by their lack of surprise, at me. * Shyathy pulls out a rather full pouch of gold coins.. "Well then. Guess i'm all set." ^^ Shyathy: Anyone coming with me? * Seraya sighs quietly, looking down at her damp clothing. Ramus: I would love to, think you can do something bout me? * Shyathy sweatdrops, "You come with me Ser.. I'll buy you new clothes since I drenched those.." Seraya: Alright.. * Shyathy nods to the Woman and heads toward the door, "Thanks for the hospitality Ms.." She trails off, realizing she neglected to ask the Woman's name. * Ramus follows GMofDoom: :Woman: "Roanie." Ramus: If I leave you alone for second when I turn back around I will find that you are tied and gagged in someones basement, all the while thinking its part of a deal to make money. GMofDoom: :Woman: *smiles* "Are you off then?" * Shyathy nods, "We'll be back, since I'm assuming Yeyj wanted us to wait here..?" GMofDoom: :Woman: "Not particularly. She said she could find you as long as you stayed in the city." * Shyathy shrugs, "Well then.. If we don't return, thank you for everything Roanie." She smiles and offers a respectful bow.. * Seraya nods, giving a similar bow. GMofDoom: :Woman: *nods* * Ramus turns his head around and gives a grunt while blowing off steam. * Shyathy ducks out the door and heads off down the street.. * Ramus follows GMofDoom: :Woman: *presses a button on the arm of her chair once they're gone, and then goes about her business.* * Seraya looks around the city as they go, "This is amazing... never seen a city like this.." GMofDoom: ((keep going people, it's not far to the wall =oP)) * Shyathy nods as she walks, watching for the wall.. GMofDoom: *The wall blocks off the road completely just a little ways up ahead. Its plainness seems quite out of place.* Ramus: I think both of you trust her entirely too much. We don't know who she is. Where this is. If Yejy really contacted her, and if so what was her purpose. Nor do we know how we got here. But I think it has something to do with those bird people. Seraya: What should we do then, dragonman? Distrust her and be rude to what may actually be someone that's trying to help us? Ramus: No. Shyathy: Give up the fact that we don't trust her and bring the conspiritors down on our heads? Ramus: I will distrust her and be rude. You will distrust her, but be nice and pretend to trust her. Shyathy: I never said I didn't trust her.. * Shyathy looks teh wall over for a gate of some such... GMofDoom: *The wall appears to be quite solid.* Shyathy: Bah. Up and over then.. Raywing! *She crates a bubble around the group and floats it upward to the top of the wall.. Ramus: But there is more to her than meets the eye. Look how calmly she took me in. I don't know how anyone on this plante would know about Draconians. GMofDoom: *Shyathy is now standing on top of a wall. Yay.* * Shyathy looks down into the area on the other side. * Ramus jumps over the wallwith a boost from his wings. GMofDoom: *Several fancy houses have their backs to the wall. No shops in sight* Shyathy: Odd... o.o I thought she said there'd be shops over here.. Ramus: Did she? Seraya: .. she said "walk through it"? Shyathy: (Actually, she said "Walk through it" by Shya's not picking up on that. She assumed that ment a gate. ^^) GMofDoom: ((*sniffs proudly* I've trained you guys so well. *wipes away tears of happiness*)) Seraya: (*petpets the GM of Doom*) Ramus: I have a bad feeling. I wouldn't be surprised if if when we got back we found Chylshim flayed and quartered, and Yejy waiting for us with a horde of bird people. Seraya: (Poor Chris.) * Seraya sighs, "Being suspicious and worrying about it won't make us any more prepared than we already are..." Ramus: I have an idea lets go back over. *goes back over the gate* * Seraya watches from where she and Shyathy are standing on the wall. Seraya: Maybe it's a hologram, or portal or something... GMofDoom: ((yeah what happened to chris? o.o)) Seraya: (He fell asleep. *nod*) Ramus: You need to see this! *Is shocked to see that part of the wall is not solid and his arm goes clean through* GMofDoom: ((ah.)) Seraya: Figured as much. Go on in, dragonman. ^^ * Shyathy shrugs, "It's worth a shot." She lands next to Ramus.. "Well well. These people know a bit more than I expected." ^^ GMofDoom: (( *boogies to her eiffel 65 tape while enjoying her plot unfolding* )) Seraya: (! BLUE XD) Seraya: (... cuz you're blue, GM-sama o.o) GMofDoom: (( Actually I'm listening to Move your Body right now ^^;)) Seraya: (Of course. *looks for her bonus CD with about 7 versions of Move your Body on it*) Ramus: Now Im really suspicious, no one said this planet had magic of this caliber. Try to reverse engineer this spell to see how it was made. GMofDoom: ((*is jealous*)) Ramus: Besides this could be a one way portal into a hell hole. * Shyathy rolls her eyes and walks thru the portal.. GMofDoom: ((it's funny cuz he's sort of half right. ^^)) * Ramus follows grudgingly Shyathy: (Mind you Shyathy is convinced she can blast her way out of anything thrown at her. :P) * Seraya readies a defensive spell and follows. GMofDoom: *The sight on the other side is far less aesthetically pleasing than the city they had been surrounded with before. Buildings are of an interesting architecture, but made with plain materials and starting to look run down. The streets are bustling with people dressed in plain clothes.* Ramus: (an arrow unseen or a knife in the dark can kill her as easily as anyone else) * Shyathy sighs, "Figures. Every nice city always has the slums where most everyone gets crammed.. Why can't I ever visit a city that's actually as nice as it looks?" Ramus: (and with the cook captured who knows how things are in Death) * Ramus jumps in front ready to bite off someones head. GMofDoom: *Shops line most of the main street that they are standing on. Everything a normal city would have is available to purchase here, plus some things that the group cannot begin to identify* * Shyathy pushes past Ramus and glances about for a nice clothing shoppe.. GMofDoom: *Several shoppes sell clothes. Some sell simple fabrics, others plain clothes, still more the style of clothing that the group saw on the other side of the wall. * Seraya whispers to Shyathy, "I think I liked Hazel better as a traveling companion." Ramus: I heard that, what do you think these are for? *wags his ears* * Shyathy nods in agreement and steps into one of the shops with the nicer outfits, keeping an eye out for something silky. Nice and light fabric.. GMofDoom: ((lol)) * Seraya smiles innocently back at Ramus. Ramus: Its okay, your like the family I once had but was brutally slaughtered. * Seraya cringes, "Sorry..." Shyathy: (Is there a shopkeeper, Ms GM? ^^) GMofDoom: *A tall, thin young woman that seems not-quite human steps over to the group, smiling warmly* "Hello, want can I do for you today?" Her voice is soft and lilting.* GMofDoom: (( have patience!)) Shyathy: (Ah. There she is. ^^) * Shyathy nods, smiling. "Hai, you can actually.. I'm new in town.. and need to pick up some cooler clothing.." She gestures at her travelworn tunic.. "This just doesn't cut it in the warm weather here.." GMofDoom: ((and change that want to a what.)) Seraya: (Waaant.) * Ramus lets out a blood curdling shreik when he sees several items that appear to be made of dragon scales. * Seraya acks and covers her ears for the second time. Ramus: (Im waiting to see if the GM can do something to keep my chara from killing the shop keeper.) GMofDoom: :Shopkeeper: *smiles sympathetically at Ramus before turning her attention back to Shyathy* "I see. Well, we have several items made from a gauzy fabric that is quite wonderful in warmer weather. What sort of styles are you looking for?" GMofDoom: *A small buzz can be heard and Ramus can no longer move.* * Seraya blinks and looks around for that noise. GMofDoom: *The buzz is gone as quickly as it appeared, but the affects on Ramus remain.* * Ramus is imobilized but still able to breathe and fires a jet of fire at the store . * Shyathy smirks at the useful little spell that froze Ramus and files it away for later use.. "Hrm.. preferably a tunic like this one, or mabye a Robed style like I've seen people on the outside wearing.. Shyathy: Dynast Breath! GMofDoom: ((breathing is a part of moving.)) * Shyathy freezes the jet of flame.. Shyathy: Baka.. GMofDoom: ((ahh, if only yeyj were here. she would buy a dragonscale cloak just to piss him off.)) Seraya: (Heh) Shyathy: (You shouldn't spit fire around when the Ice Elemenatlist is nearby. :P) * Seraya looks at the frozen dragon breath nervously. Ramus: (and the next day Ramus would waltz in with a cape made of human scalps.) Seraya: (Somehow I doubt Yeyj would be particularly bothered by that...) * Ramus is thinking, if there are dragon scale cloaks then there are dragons and I will rally them under my banner and burn this city to the ground. Ramus: (draconians got along with dragons) GMofDoom: :Shopkeeper: *happily pulls several white gauzy fabrics off a shelf and unfolds them, revealing a long, thinner piece that wraps around the torso and a skirt slit high up both sides.* "Hmm...that's not what I intended, but do you like it?" * Shyathy smiles as she examines the clothing.. "My my.. excelent worksmanship.. I don't suppose I could try it on?" GMofDoom: :Shopkeeper: "Oh, feel free. There are rooms over there." *points out a curtained off area to the side* * Shyathy nods, glancing at Ser.. "Aren't you gonna do any shopping Seraya? This is all comeing out of my pouch." :P GMofDoom: :Shopkeeper: *turns her attention to Seraya* Seraya: Uhm.. *has been having a little trouble looking at clothing with a frozen fire breath floating in the air* * Shyathy blinks and completes her spell, shattering the flames into harmless little sparks. Ramus: (What happened to the magic not working right, nezu?) Seraya: I guess anything will do.. *picks at her damp shirt* Seraya: (That was in the Construct. *nod*) Shyathy: (That was in the Construct.) Seraya: (^_^) GMofDoom: *Upon closer inspection, which I assume Shya will do in the dressing room, the gauzy fabric has something shiny woven into it that manages to escape plain view. The edges of the fabric are trimmed with a simple beaded design in blues.* * Shyathy blinks, and looks closely at the shiny stuff, trying to determine what it is.. o.o GMofDoom: :Shopkeeper: *Eyes Ser up and down and pulls some more gauzes in a pale blue off the shelf, unfolding them to reveal a sleeveless robe in a very greek style. It is interwoven with the same shiny stuff and is trimmed with a simple gold colored band of fabric.* "You like?" Seraya: Oh yes, thank you ma'am... GMofDoom: :Shopkeeper: *hands it to Ser* Do go try it on. * Seraya bows a little and goes to do that. Ramus: *struggling under his breath* how... much... would .... it.... cost.... to.... buy.... everything.... made... from.... dragon.... GMofDoom: :Shopkeeper: *wanders over to the immobile Ramus and taps him on the nose* "Are we going to behave?" BP[uNf] is now known as BlackPenguin Shyathy: (::poke::) Shyathy: (::Points at Shya's examining::) GMofDoom: *Shya cannot determine what it is.* GMofDoom: ((happy? ^^)) Shyathy: (Yep. ^^) Ramus: So.... you... can.... hunt.... and... kill... my..... brothers... and... you... expect... me... to... stand... for... it...? * Shyathy makes a mental note to ask about the strands and then pulls off her tunic and wraps the new outfit around herself. Chylshim: ((oops... fell asleep... fucking college...)) GMofDoom: :Shopkeeper: "Dragons are going to be extinct." *Smiles beautifully at Ramus, a slight amount of evil intent hidden far beneath the smile* Seraya: (*shakes a fist at Chris* Not allowed!) GMofDoom: ((aww, poor chris chris.)) Ramus: She.... can't... keep... me... like... this... forever... GMofDoom: :Shopkeeper: "Who can't?" Chylshim: ((ramus doesn't seem to know about inner monologue :p)) Ramus: Shyathy... let... me.. go.. killing... this... pig... wouldn't... be... a... crime... * Shyathy wanders out of the changing room in the robe the Shopkeeper picked out for her. "SO, how does it look?" ^^ GMofDoom: :Shopkeeper: *Is about to say something to Ramus but turns back around to Shyathy* "Quite lovely." * Shyathy smiles, "Just curious.. What are these strand here?" She gestures at the strands of material that she couldn't identify.. GMofDoom: :Shopkeeper: "Ah...you are new here. They help channel the Tyen." * Seraya steps out dressed in the Greek-style robe, wet clothing folded and put away in her own dimensional pocket for later. Seraya: ..? Tyen? GMofDoom: :Shopkeeper: "It is not for me to discuss...here. The Prato cannot use it." Ramus: let... me.. go.. killing... this... pig... wouldn't... be... a... crime.. * Shyathy blinks and forms a whisp of magical fire in her hands.. "Like this..?" GMofDoom: :Shopkeeper: "Um...not quite." GMofDoom: :Shopkeeper: *shifts uncomfortably* * Shyathy shrugs and extinguishes the flame.. "Must be some form of magical energy i'm not familiar with then..." GMofDoom: :Shopkeeper: *coughs pointedly* "It's really not to be discussed in this district." * Shyathy blinks, "Ah right.. Sorry. We're not from around here.." ^^; GMofDoom: :Shopkeeper: *nods* "Is that all I can do for you two ladies, or would you like to look at anything else?" * Shyathy shakes her head.. "That should be all for now..How much for these two outfits?" * Ramus has an idea and uses his last bit of strenght to shout, "Some one is using the Tyen on me" so everyone can hear. Hoping to start a mob. GMofDoom: :Shopkeeper: "One hundred pieces." GMofDoom: *A crack can be heard. A few of Ramus's scales clatter to the floor.* * Shyathy pulls out her pouch of coins and examines it.. then hands the Shopkeeper the entire pouch.. "There may be a bit more than 100 coins in there, but you can keep the extra." ^^ GMofDoom: :Shopkeeper: *bows to Shyathy* "Why thank you. Please come back soon." * Shyathy smiles and bows politely, grabbing the frozen Draconian and dragging him along as she walks out.. Ramus: You got what you wanted does it really matter now? I won't kill her, just let me take an arm and a leg? GMofDoom: *As soon as they are out of the store, Ramus unfreezes* * Ramus sets the store on fire. GMofDoom: *The store remains perfectly intact, the fire itself being sucked somewhere that cannot be seen.* * Shyathy rolls her eyes.. "Baka.." She starts walking off, arm in arm with Ser. ^^ GMofDoom: ((good place to stop, dearies?)) Shyathy: (Aww.. ;.; But this is fun.) * Ramus throws a rock and breaks a window. GMofDoom: ((yeah it is ^^ but if we go too much farther we have to bring in...*ahem* people.)) * Seraya shakes her head, adjusting to the sleeveless robe. GMofDoom: *The rock shatters the window.* Chylshim: ((You're just trying to piss someone off, eh?)) Seraya: ... I say we go before Ramus gets us in big trouble... Shyathy: (Eh.. well. I don't mind. ^^) Shyathy: (Actually.. Hold on.) GMofDoom: ((what's the consensus?)) Shyathy: (You there Vaughn?) BlackPenguin: (yeah) BlackPenguin: (I keep telling myself that I should join one of these ^_^) Shyathy: (We don't have to be at school at all t'mrrow right? Just show up at the Rose Garden at 3 for Graduation?) Ramus: Try to trade places with me, how would you feel if your skin was valued as a comodity, and humans were being slaughtered for it? BlackPenguin: (yeah) Shyathy: (Yeah. Then I say we continue. Seraya: It's not that it doesn't bother me, but I'd rather not cause even more trouble... Shyathy: ^^) GMofDoom: ((ser?)) * Shyathy shrugs. "If you're going to be a pain, at least stop tagging along with Seraya and I.. I don't feel like getting arresetedor whatever for your stupidity. Seraya: (Zzzzzz...) GMofDoom: ((heh, wanna go to bed?)) Chylshim: ((la la)) Ramus: (im tired its 3:00) Seraya: (*shrugs* I'm not as tired as usual. :P Seraya: I can go either way.) GMofDoom: ((lol)) Ramus: (That was fuuny) GMofDoom: ((well decide ser. ramus, you can go if you like. It'll be easy to make an excuse for you disappearance at this point.)) BlackPenguin is now known as BP[0083] Ramus: ( have we reached a decision?) Seraya: (Me dun care. :P) GMofDoom: ((well you want to go to bed. we understand completely, so feel welcome to go.)) GMofDoom: ((since ser dun care and ryan wants to, i think we shall continue.)) Ramus: (Fine just don't kill me off) Seraya: ( ) GMofDoom: ((i won't.)) Ramus has quit IRC (Quit: ) Seraya: (Shya-chan and I might. :P) Chylshim: (pretend a meteor fell on his head and knocked him out for the time being :p) Seraya: (Hehe) Shyathy: (So, Where to now, Ms. GM?) GMofDoom: *A little boy dashes down the street, bumping to Seraya in his haste. He mumbles an apology as he continues at his breakneck speed.* * Seraya erks quietly, "Be careful.." * Shyathy glances at Ser.. "Were you carrying any money..?" Seraya: Not physically... I wonder why he's running so fast... Shyathy: My Guess was theft.. GMofDoom: *A pair of bulky male guards appear through the wall up the street, glancing around.* * Shyathy glances at the guards.. "What's with them?" GMofDoom: *Guards seem to spot something and stride down the street* Seraya: Dunno.. should we find out? GMofDoom: *Shya and Ser feel a weight on their shoulders, much like someone leaning on them.* * Seraya blinks and looks up You are now known as Yeyj * Yeyj smiles at Seraya, munching on a bag of sugared nuts. Seraya: Ack! .. oh, hello Yeyj... Shyathy: * Shyathy blinks..blinks.. Shyathy is now known as Riain * Yeyj is wearing clothes made of the same gauzy material as Shya and Ser. Her chest is covered with a length of the material, tied at the back so it flows down behind her, and another long strip wraps around her legs in an interesting pattern. Seraya: Uhm.. why are we here, Yeyj? * Riain grins from the other side.. "What, no hello for me?" He's dressed in a simple white shirt of the same material and a pair of black or dark blue pants.. His hair is longer than the last time Ser and co saw him, and is tied back in a ponytail.. * Seraya blinks and looks over, "Oh, sorry.. didn't see you, Riain..." * Yeyj grins wickedly, obviously having the time of her life here. Chylshim: ((hrm, and the plot thickens.. :p)) Riain: Bah.. I'm just that stealthy, I guess. :P Yeyj: From what I've gathered, witnessed, and etc., we are here as prisoners. Seraya: Prisoners.. those Keepers, they had Raion..? * Yeyj frowns. * Riain blinks, "Well that's just great.." Yeyj: Yeah. But did you see how many they had to keep around him? * Yeyj laughs to herself. Riain: * Shyathy nods.. "Quite a few.."a few.." Yeyj: Yeah. And that's not overkill. He may seem like a wuss but I'm tellin' ya... * Yeyj shakes her head and laughs. Chylshim: Raion ((;.;)) ((;.;)) Riain: * Shyathy smirks, "Yes yes.. I've been an Agent long enough to know Raion isn't the wuss he seems to be.."to be.." Seraya: But.. why are we prisoners...? Riain: * Shyathy rubs her forehead, "But since you've been here longer, maybe you can tell us why the hell we're here.." here.." Yeyj: Well, honestly, I don't know the whole story. The GRO had me locked up too, ya know. * Yeyj laugh Yeyj: As far as I've gathered, the bastard has gotten what's coming to him. Riain: * Shyathy smirks.. "Oh? That's a nice bit of good news.. But that doesn't explain why we're here.." here.." Yeyj: Well it does, actually. We've been put here because we're seen as a threat to whoever kicked the GRO's ass. * Chylshim comes walking down the street from wherever the hell he was. (hopping back in :p) * Yeyj giggles with glee like a school girl...sort of. * Seraya frowns a bit to herself as she listens. * Chylshim comes to a halt in front of the group. * Riain shrugs.. "I've been looking for anything I can to get us out.. but there isn't anything of consequense yet.. Riain: Though I must admit.. It's not too bad here.. * Yeyj nudges Ryan. * Riain grins slightly. * Riain blinks, "What?" Yeyj: Tell them all you know about where we are. It's your planet, after all. Riain: Oh, right. We're on Earth.. Riain: I'd say sometime BC.. And here's the kicker.. Seraya: (And there's the snap! It's a looong trip for that ball!) Chylshim: (*punts ser for the extra point* Chylshim: ) Riain: I have no idea where we are.. ^^; By the climate.. I'd guess Medeterannian reigon. But I don't recognise this Island's Geographical features.. I can't figureout just where it is.. Seraya: (*flies* x.x) Riain: (::Pokes people::) Chylshim: ((*dies)) * Yeyj smiles smugly. Seraya: Did Earth back then have technology like this..? Portals through walls, building cities from gold...? * Riain shakes his head.. "Not that i've ever heard of.." * Yeyj whips out her device, and on the small screen is what seems to be an encycopedic article. At the top it says in bold letters "Atlantis". * Riain blinks. "You've got to be kidding me.. Atlantis is a myth.." * Seraya peeks over Yeyj's shoulder. * Yeyj grins widely. * Chylshim arches an eyebrow Yeyj: Nu-uh. It's just that the world you came from has their collective head stuck so far up their ass they can't *believe* anything like this would exist. Yeyj: Now, tell us what you know about Atlantis. This article is boring as hell. * Riain shrugs. "It was supposed to be a highly advanced culture of Grecian people that lived on an Island in the Meddeteranian.. Atlantis was a trading hub for cultures all over the world at that time, as well as a technological center. But the myths had it that Atlantic dissapeared, sunk under the ocean and was never found again.. o.o * Riain shrugs, "Or that's the summary of it, anyway." o.o Yeyj: nod * Yeyj nods. Yeyj: ((...too much time in sindome.)) Chylshim: ((too use to the mud :p)) Yeyj: ((well it doesn't help that i'm getting chastity drunk while doing this =oP)) Riain: * Shyathy blinks at Ser.. "Kinda like Memphobus's Lost Cnntinent..?"nent..?" Riain: (Whee. :P) * Seraya nods absently. Yeyj: say And do you have any idea why it disappeared? Yeyj: (9agh!)) Chylshim: ((lol)) * Chylshim looks around Chylshim: Well, the weight of the gold buildings would play a factor.. * Riain shrugs, "Zeus and the other Gods smote down the arrogant people of Atlantis, or so the mythos says.." o.o Yeyj: Who's Zeus? Riain: Zeus, Jupiter.. Ancient Gods from this reigon. * Yeyj nods Yeyj: Hmm...so we could be dealing with some potentially pissed off greater beings here, depending at which point of their history we've been dropped into. Riain: Given that we still seem to be *above* the ocean. I'd say before Atlantis was smote. :P * Yeyj rolls her eyes. Yeyj: ((I'm spoiled. I miss the @social menu ;.;)) * Seraya taps away at her device, still thinking about how they're "prisoners". Seraya: (?) Chylshim: ((socials, mud shortcuts for emotes)) Yeyj: ((good stuff, them.)) Seraya: (Uh huh...) Chylshim: ((like typing nod, will make you nod etc)) Yeyj: ((and roll will have you roll your eyes. and french name will have you making out with that person...good stuff.)) Chylshim: ((writing a script for that would be easy, but would take a bit cause there are lots of socials :p)) Riain: (Speaking of MU*s.. Ser. Yuri and I decided you have to come build the Cottage for Shoujoai MUSH's Wonderland, because you built the original one for the RPG.) Chylshim: ((er wait, are you still using a mac, nezu poo)) Yeyj: ((i'm not a script writer, really.)) Chylshim: ((?)) Yeyj: ((damn straight.)) Yeyj: ((WOOOOOO MACS)) Seraya: (*wouldn't be able to do it since she's done exactly 0 building*) Riain: (We'll help. ^^) Yeyj: (9and if we keep ooc'ing like we're doing i'm stopping the game.)) Chylshim: ((k nm, I can write it for mIRC, but don't know any of the scripting languages for the mac clients :p)) Seraya: (I could draw out a floor plan or something...) Riain: (But you get to write the room descs and tell us the floor plan.) Riain: (I think it's agood place to stop. @.@ I should get *some* sleep. Besides. We can RP t'mrrow afternnon. ^^) * Yeyj waves the end rpg flag
