Snelly Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 IC: Skyra - Kra Karda -I scowled, being forced to bow to anyone...or anything for that matter made me boil with anger...but there was literally nothing I could do against this being in my head. I decided that it was best to just get out of here. I began to back away from the scene, making my way back toward the way I came. **** you. I thought at Kar as I began to sprint away from the Suva and toward where I had left Fate.

otter Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 (edited) IC-Kar:Kar would have scowled, had he had the ability. This Toa was dangerous, it knew that. But only so long as he held the sword was Skyra dangerous-were he to lose Fury, he would be like any other Toa. Expendable. Destructable. Kar would have smiled, had he had the ability."The stone will be hidden in plain sight," Kar said, suddenly, to Ghaieden. "While that may seem cryptic, it really isn't. Just look for the most normal thing there. Of course, it will be spherical, unlike that one. And somewhat polished."IC-Game Master:"Ah, I see where we are now," the voice said as the heat grew stronger. "Yes...stay within the mists, and you should be safe," the voice told Ketru. "But once you leave them, I cannot be certain. I do not know just what may happen. I do know, however, that the beings which stalk these tunnels are both spawn of the Ul'kar and of the Great Beings. Tread lightly," was the last thing in its message.As Ketru walked, he might notice the shadows within the shadow passages near him shift, slightly. He might notice a barely audible whisper, here and there, which seemed to fill him with dread. He might notice as the mists eddied in front of him, barely, echoing movement, shadows seeming to pass across the path, the mists carrying messages of pain to him, but also messages of anger. And hunger. Edited October 6, 2012 by Kal Grochi profiles i guess i'm a south american giant otter now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You truly are an arrogant piece of work, aren't you? She could feel some kind of... Pull, toward the tunnels. But that could be dealt with later. She had bigger fish to fry.

Upon the low lying table approximately ten feet away from your current position." Then it shifted, again, to Fury."And you're a hypocrite," it said simply.

Constructelf Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 IC: KetruThis place was terrifying. Or at least, it would have been terrifying to Takatar. Ketru only felt the slightest twinge of fear as he walked through the tunnels. But that twinge was growing. That didn't matter though. He walked through the ever heating up tunnel. His footsteps light, his sabre at ready, his blank eyes monitoring his surroundings. A look of fear would have been on his face if not for his... condition.OOC: If you're asking why he isn't afraid, it's because I chose to portray his insanity in the form of "robot" syndrome.

Snelly Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 IC: Skyra - Just outside Kra Karda -I finally was out of the city, with my enhanced abilities I'd been able to run at an incredibly fast speed, faster than I'd ever run. As I entered the same tunnel I'd entered the city I saw Fate, she'd was lying on the ground, when she heard me enter she perked up and went up to me, tail wagging, she was happy to see me. I sat down next to her and just stroked her fur, my face a bit pale. That...Ul'Kar had invaded my mind, and looked through my memories without permission. This upset me more than anything else. Who knew how much it knew about me now? More than I wanted anyone to ever know that's for sure. I held Fate in my arms tightly, still stroking her fur.

"Nor am I the sort who could be intimidated by a talking sword. I come from a time not even you would understand, spirit, and I have a mind that you would easily become lost in, with no method of escape." The Ul'kar mentally snorted."Now stop wasting my time and kill that foolish Toa you've so unwisely chosen to bear you. Maybe then we could talk."

Krayzikk Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 IC: FuryOh, I know exactly what time you come from. For the first time, Fury allowed a sense of her age to float across the mental conversation. Until now, she had been hiding the signature of her mind that would have allowed Kar to grasp her age. If I recall correctly, I met your maker once. You would be wise not to test me, creature. And I don't think I will kill my Bearer. Not just yet. For the moment, I rather need him to have any semblance of mobility. And I really don't want to go through the hassle of finding another one. The quality of them just keeps going down.

"But I don't think you understand: I am my maker, just as my maker is me. We are one. And so I say again, I come from a time before you. Before these Matoran about, as well. I am many beings, and many beings are me. Would you like to become another?" It gave a mental smile."Or would you like for this bearer of yours to become a part of us? That can easily be arranged."

Fury had been...oddly silent this whole time as well, but I payed no mind to that fact, she'd speak to me when she felt like it I was sure.
