Simulacrum Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 IC: Tawara (Ga-Koro Streets)"Yeah, it was. I don't know him anywhere near as well as you do, but I've got a feeling that Raion isn't used to people standing up to him. Especially his sister." Tawara stared at the ground. "But what if Kitsune gets herself killed?"This might not be the best time to ask this, but... you're smiling. At a moment like this. Jikal seemed so cheerful when I first came here, even though he had a demon living inside his head. I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say that I've been through karz since I've come here, and I know you've been through worse. I guess what I'm trying to say is that everyone here has to constantly be on the lookout for potential murderers, but you all seem to take it in stride. How can you bear it? The memories of where I came from are becoming fainter and fainter, but I don't think anyone was happy there."OOC: Well, it's official. I've decided to drop Tawara's accent. It's too much trouble to keep consistent, it interferes with my writing style, and I'm not even sure what accent it's supposed to be. I promise that this will be my last retcon.IC: Briani, Ga-Koro"I suppose my smiling is odd," Briani said, considering this with a tilt of the head and a look into the distance. "But it's just what I do to cope. I smile, as I consider how ludicrous this all is, and I can't help but grin like a madman. It's strange, I know, but it's how I react. I'm sorry if I seem uncaring or rude, I just find it strange, so strange it's amusing. Not the deaths or the pain, I take that all too seriously, but the fact people like Kitsune are willing to be killed, if it's for a cause they find worthy."

Techn0geist Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) IC: ReaverShe sprang upright, breathing heavily. Looking around, she found herself in an unfamiliar environment. It was a beach, high tide. The waves washed up against her armour, cleaning the sand out of the various scars in her armour. Clutching her head, she tried to stand upright, but fell back down. Right onto a stick jutting out of the sand. It pierced her shoulder, and she cried out in pain.But this time there was no glowing. There was no pleasure mixed in with the pain.There was no Mark.He felt her arm up and down, looked again and again. But it was gone. She hyperventilated, panicking at the loss of her strength. The scars were now ugly reminders of a time gone by, a time of power, a time of Godhood. Reaver curled up into a ball and wept, gritting her teeth. It was unbearable.She tried to stand again, but felt weak, and only managed a slow stagger. It was then she remembered something important. The most important person in her life.'EMOTIAAAAAAA!!'------------------------------------------IC: PayigesHer eyes flicked open to nurses with smiles spread across their faces.'What? Where am I?''Ga-Koro Hospital,' one of the nurses replied. 'Your vitals were all over the place for a while, but we managed to stabilize you eventually.'She slowly pulled back her bedsheets, and tried to stand up. She was restrained by tubes connected to some sort of pump device. Payiges slowly and painfully pulled them out of her arm, one by one. 'Why am I here?''Don't know. One of your companions brought you in here and demanded that you get immediate attention.''Companion? What are you on about?' So many questions all of a sudden.'Tall, silver Toa, quite a lanky build.''.... Who? And where's Ga-Koro?'OOC: Let's try this again Edited October 4, 2012 by Clockwork Kineticist The Writer Formerly Known as Zeal BZPRPG Profiles Ghosts of Bara Magna Profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krayzikk Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 IC: Deep within the village of Ga-Koro, not too far from where the destructive fight between the Maasi and the Mark Bearers occurred, a Toa of Lightning lay unconscious.No one had yet noticed him, for he had not been there long. In fact, no one had seen him enter the village either, for he had not entered in the usual fashion. When he awoke, he himself would not be sure just how he got from the Kumu Islets to Ga-Koro, or exactly what had occurred in the time he was unconscious. He had been placed in an alley roughly mid way between the site of his darker side's final breakout, and his final fight as a Bearer. Slowly, he started to stir. His eyes opened halfway, taking in his surroundings, and he moved his limbs experimentally. Nothing seemed to be wrong, but something was.... Off. Or rather, it felt like something had been put right. His mind felt......That was when it struck him. His mind was his. There was no malevolent presence, no voice other than his own within his mind. It had been made whole, and free of corruption. Hopefully, he moved one hand to his shoulder, where the curse that had plagued him for so long resided.It too, was gone.With that realization, the Toa's eyes opened fully, and examined his surroundings once more. Miraculously, leaning against the wall, was his guitar. And next to him on the ground was his cloak.For the first time in a long time, Jikal smiled.

As she slowly sat up, she smelled the unforgettable smell of the ocean, she heard the seagulls cry, the warmth in the air had that certain feeling to it...She was back in Ga-Wahi! As she began to rise to her feet she rubbed her arm, suddenly she froze....she looked to see if her mind was playing tricks on her...no...no it wasn't. Her mark was gone!

He'd forgotten about it since it was when he first arrived, but now he cursed himself for forgetting."Mark-Bearers," He said indifferently, "Last time I was here, they tore up a big part of Ga-Koro's market in a fight, and a mansion that way," He pointed towards the other side of the cove, "Was attacked as well.

Snelly Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 IC: Emotia - Beach, Ga-Wahi -Emotia looked around, it was just her on the beach. After pinching herself several times she concluded that she was in fact not dreaming. She figured that the other mark bearers must of ended up where they first noticed their mark as well, a logical conclusion. Though what about Tillian? Was he still all the way back at the temple? Would he have any clue what had happened to her? She had an idea, but she needed to get into Ga-koro. She started to make her way toward the floating village. When she was close enough for the guards to recognize they immediately raised their weapons. She cursed inwardly, it didn't matter that she was markless, they still saw her as a monster, especially with a vampire for a husband. She got an idea as she remembered something, her mask power! She could use it once again. She walked away from the view of the guards, then activated her Pehkui, mask of diminishment. She shrunk down to be only six inches tall, it would be easy to sneak into the koro like this. And she did so, she sprinted over toward the edge of the gate, out of the view of the guards, this took much longer it would if she was normal size, since her steps were so tiny. She quickly climbed up a ledge, which was actually a step from a normal sized being. She stealthily snuck behind one of the guards, sliding on the wall of the gate. Then she sprinted as fast as she could into the koro. She was in.

Krayzikk Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 IC: JikalIn an instant, Jikal weighed his options.He couldn't run. The Matoran could take care of him before he even stood up, let alone made an escape. He wasn't going to be able to talk his way out. And if he fought back, assuming he didn't accidentally kill his opponent, the Marines would find him soon. And they would be more inclined to believe a Matoran from he village, rather than a known Mark Bearer who helped to destroy part of it, and kill several civilians.In short, he was stuck between a rock and a hard place."Kiani." The Matoran said, kneeling down, and pressing the blade of the dagger against Jikal's throat. "That was my sister. Most innocent person you could ever meet. One of the kindest, too. She ran a charity, to help people who've had their lives and bodies destroyed by people like you. She was walking home from that job, the day you decided to wreak havoc upon a peaceful village.""You killed her."

Techn0geist Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 IC: ReaverShe limped back into the village, all those scars from months past beginning to take their toll. She was weak, her Mark the only thing that kept her going all that time. She saw the entrance to the village lined with guards. She focused, and was suddenly invisible. The Kanohi Huna was a good choice of Mask after all. Once she had entered the village, she saw a very familiar blue Toa.'Emotia!' She yelled weakly, forgetting to become visible again.

She looked around when she thought she heard Reaver calling her name, but being six inches tall it was really hard to see with all the people walking around, plus she was trying her best not to get stepped on. She was walking past an alleyway when she saw a familiar face, Jikal! He seemed to be in a pickle, a matoran had a knife to his throat. "Stop!" She shouted, realizing her voice must of sounded very quite and small in her currently size she quickly grew back to her normal height. "Think about what you're doing..."
