7message detail Aw, heck, why not? Dreamer would have wanted it...

9It is a time when the Gods of the Pikmin still interacted with eachother directly, long before Olimar or Gear. Even before the family of Black Hole. Oracles, Priests and Priestess, noble warriors fight for supremacy for their patron Deity.
10
11Rules:
12
131) No god pikmin. Demi is alright, but they must be mortal. MORTAL. (One exception, but she has nothing to do with fighting)
14
152) Nothing really high tech, this is waaaaay back when.
16
173) You can worship as many gods as you wish, but you should pick a Liege Deity, one who you place above the others.
18
194) For Godmoders: Fighting a Deity is not allowed. 'k?
20
215) We can't all be Oracles/Priests/whatever, so if you think there are enough, please be a warrior or some non-god related thing. The battle of the Deities are fought by Pikmin.
22
236) You're allowed as many characters as you are comfortable with, but please, don't overload
24
257) Before creating a new deity, please ask me.
26
278) You don't need to worship the gods, or the deity that your type mostly worships, but each needs a patron to identify themselves with...

100
101Let's see... If I wanna be a Demi-god... I suppose I could go with Alpha, Zeta, or Omega. (Alpha and Zeta may be part of the Bulborb Mafia experiments, but they were alive long before then. They were simply upgraded when experimented on. Omega would count as a Deity, though...)
102
103Oh... wait... Alpha and Zeta are Gold Pikmin, and Omega is an Orange Pikmin... DAMN!
104
105I'll have to think of something else...
106
107Or Alpha and Zeta could have simply been a different color before experimentation...

114
115Name: Flare
116
117Color: Red
118
119Class: Warrior/Social Heretic
120
121Abilities:
122
123Fury: This is his ye basic trait... the more pissed off he gets, the more pain you're gonna feel. Its so simple, I fail to understand why few other people don't exploit it.
124
125Dragonbreath: Flare's little magic, and also his fry-the-living-hell-out-of-foes move, basically, after consuming some alcohol, Flare has an incredibly flammable breath. Due to his natural talent with fire, he can control the uncontrollable stream that results, and intensify it tenfold, or weaken it if necessary. Usually, he blows onto a flame conjured on one tip of his staff, and, for slightly more entertainment, (that sadistic son of a...) he'll launch a spark onto any perosn he wants, and then accurately launch spit chock-full of drunken goodness, lighting his unlucky victim with a pleasant glow. Willer indeed!
126
127Vortex: His own personally favorite move, Flare just concentrates as much fire energy to the bottom of his staff as possible, and upon striking, the pent-up energy just explodes in a raging tornado of flame, acting somewhat like a drill. It takes a lot out of Flare to initiate, but once he has it, he can save it for later, often for a long, long time.
128
129Physical Description:
130
131Ye basic red pikmin, except he wears a sharp, grey gi, (sort of like a robe, if you guys know it. Otherwise, google image it.) and always wears a headband, the sort you tie around your head, and let two parts flow back freely. Yea, I know, very martial-arts-like ;P.
132
133Otherwise, he's a relatively young guy, close to eighteen years of age, but not quite yet. He's lean, but wiry, and for his size, relatively strong.
134
135Finally, he always carries with him his trusty staff, an old, polished smooth walking stick, one that has brought forth swift pain to his foes. Engraved with the sutra of lore long before him, he vaguely knows that it came from a long line of sages, monks, and whatnot, and that its some sort of demon purger, but he's doesn't give a crap, thinking that this stick is better than all that "hippie crap".
136
137Short Bio:
138
139He got disowned, simply to say. Pissy guy, volatile attitude, tendency to beat the hell out of people... yeah, his parents didn't want it, He's spontaneous, a bit thickheaded, and sometimes stupidly bold, (and I mean stupid) but otherwise, he's pure at heart, as anti-heroisitic he is.
140
141He's still a competent fighter though... and its not like Volcania, God of Fire, looked him over. Manipulation and conjuration of fire for him? No problem. But besides his magical talents, he is an extraordinary acrobat, using a sort of Brazillian capeoria, (however the hell that's spelled)
142martial arts, and staff fighting to bring his foes to his knees, of course, to enslave them.
143
144His goal in life? Kill those godamn pink hippies, those useless sentimental pieces of flesh. Otherwise, get drunk a lot, and score girls.
145
146Little does he know that he will be dragged into an even greater working of the gods...

153message detail You forgot to describe the Pink/Black/Green pikmin.
154
155
156I didn't want to limit the creative abilities. But I'll give a basic model.
157
158Pink: Two stems with healing abilities, at least as short as White Pikmin
159
160Black: Tall, assassin-like pikmin. With claws. And some have tails.
161
162Green: Dragon-pikmin. Wings and scales. Fire/Acid Breathing
163

165
166Sorry, TUM, but you can make the father/mother of Omega... a demi god who bred with a god?
167
168~
169
170I resent that. tongue.gif But it's a good idea. (Zeromus was chosen to be the opposite originally)
171
172Ra'hlaa -- Goddess of Jealousy
173
174Czaryuu -- The Ultimate Deity who brought forth the rest, neither male nor female. No longer takes part with interfering in mortal affairs
175
176~
177
178Anyway, I was going to post my character, but my screen froze. So here they are:
179
180Name: Talis
181Color: Pink
182Class: Oracle
183Abilities:
184
185Foresight: Sees into future, but it is ever changing, and can never be told for sure
186
187Light Heal: Heals small wounds
188
189Divine Protection [Passive] : Bringing permanent harm to him will bring anger to the gods. (Comes from Mark of Czaryuu)
190
191Phsyical Description: Blind. His eyes were destroyed by black pikmin in a ritual. So they're like (|) (|)
192
193Other than that, he's basically normal. with the exception of the Mark of Czaryuu on his right shoulderblade
194
195Short Bio: He was once a priest of Truth, but was captured by a group of Zeromus worshippers once...
196
197I can't breath, nor see. This bag chokes the life out of me. Help me, my god! Do not let them harm your priest!
198
199"In the name of Zeromus, I sacrifi---"
200
201"Stop! He is protected by the gods! He bears the Mark of Czaryuu!" A new voice called out... strange. (Slypha, fyi)
202
203"No sacrifice comes out unharmed from the Hall of Sacrifice! So, farewell to your sight, priest."
204
205It hurts... I cannot heal myself...
206
207I feel a power, new power, strength brewing within me...
208
209DHADE! EVEN IN MY BLINDNESS I KNOW YOU! CHAOS WILL PUNISH YOU TONIGHT, AND ZEROMUS WILL NOT ANSWER YOUR PRAYER!"
210
211
212
213From then, he was the one who told Pikminles he had to complete tasks for redemption, freed him from his bonds, and told him of the fall of his half-brother.
214
215He now remains in his shrine, located in Yellow territory, near the Cliffs by the shore and somewhat close to the chasm of eternal suffering.
216

218
219(This one is just designed to get the plot moving if it slows, okay? So no complaining)
220
221Name: Slypha
222Color: Aura is too bright to tell... *coughhackwheezegreencoughwheezehacksneeze*
223Class: Lesser God
224Abilities: ...whatever she wants
225Phsyical Description: Hard to say, but it looks like a combination of a fairy and a pikmin...
226Short Bio: Messenger Goddess. Brings the will of the gods to disobeying mortals.
227
228
229
230(Dhade is a high priest of Zeromus. He was found the next day limbless, broken, but alive, to a point)

252message detail Eh...
253
254Name: Black Art (Yes, he's part of BH's family, but he's a very, very, very, very, VERY distant ancestor)
255
256Color: Black (Obviously...)
257
258Class: Spellcaster/Sorcerer
259
260Main Deity: Zeromus
261
262Other Deities acknowledged: Chaos, Injustica, and Judas (God of Betrayal)
263
264Weapon: A huthvir, a staff with an attachable blade on either end. (Derived from Eldest. I'd put the little ^ thingy on the u... but I dunno how.)
265
266Abilities: Countless magical spells, but here are a few that stand out...
267
268Infuriate: Infuriates an opponent, causing them to go berserk. They get stronger and faster, but lose the ability to distinguish friend from foe.
269
270Shadow Manipulation: Black Art uses shadows to attack, solidifying them and then changing their shapes to attack opponents. His favorite is to impale someone with their own shadow.
271
272Warp Mind: Black Art draws out the darker side of an opponent, using any dark or hateful memory or thought of revenge to twist their minds and make them attack their allies. Only the most pure of heart and mind can completely resist this technique.
273
274Physical Description:
275
276His main feature is his emerald green eyes. Instead of a leaf, bud, or flower, he's got a dark green orb, kinda like the Spicy Spray orb, but dark green. He usually wears black robes, weaved from the shadows with his Shadow Manipulation technique. It takes only a very small portion of his energy to maintain it, but he disperses it during battle. During battle, he wears a VERY light chainmail suit, made with near elven technique.
277
278He's not very strong physically, but he has an almost endless amount of spiritual and magical energy. He's around 30.
279
280Short Bio:
281
282Black Art comes from a family of Black Pikmin purists, i.e., Black Pikmin who will ONLY breed with other fully blooded Black Pikmin. They're said to be pure right from the very beginning, from the first Black Pikmin.
283
284Being a purist, Black Art tends to think he's better than everyone else, and only obeys superiors with grudging resentment. He tends to be very self-absorbed and gets VERY angry when someone lays an injury upon him. As such, he's got an enslaved Pink Pikmin servant so he can have any wounds healed and stay young looking.

324Magic:
325Transformation: Kael can focus his energy to morph his current state into that of a Dargon-like creature (4 Legs, Long tail, sharp teeth, No wings). Although his power is great in this from, he cannot sustain it for long. After 2 minutes he must revert to normal before taking permanent damage to his internal organs and risk the possibillity at being permanently transformed into this state.
326Fatal Slash (Transform Only): When an opponent is low on their health, Kael can take a large swipe at his opponent to try and kill then with a final blow. this move will instantly revert him from his "Demonic" form.
327Spit (Trnasform Only): Because he was somewhat descended from Green Pikmen, he has some abbility of spitting a low concentratin of acid, more like a poison.
328Dart: when not transformed, Kael and use his energy reserves to use a somewhat of a teleport to move himself a slight distance. He can, however, be hit when moving like this.
329Physical Description: Tail that goes half-way up his body. Feet have sharp claws. Has a scar going up his whoile back. Wears a Red robe that goes down to his knees, goes down his arm to his wrist. Wears a Blue pair of loosly fitted pants. A BLack pair of gloves that cover half of his hand. Right eye is Gey and Left eye is normal with a blue pupil.
330Bio (Sorry, Gotta go long on this for the character to make sense)
331Kael was born in an isolated village intergrated of all colors. one year (age 7) a large battle broke out near the area and the village was discovered. BLue and Red armies charged into the village, killing everyone they could see. Kael hid himself under a loos rick in his home, watching his parents being slaughered infront of him. after a few weeks, the battle ended, both armies retreated. Kael searched the village, only finding destruction and the lingering stench of death. He fled into Pink territory were he was taken under the care of a preist for a small Temple.
332Two years later he left in search of work and Enjoyment to fulfill the emtiness the began to fill him. He later found a village of Greens, whom did not know that he was an intergrated species, took him into their care were he learned techniqes and skills for his uniqe form. A Year later the village found out about his intergration when they tried a ritual to accept him into their village. He was chased out and hunted for 4 weeks untill he escaped into the Red and Blue war-zone. He snuck into a Red city and secretly lived for a short time untill he was found and drafted into the Red Army. For another year he fought under the command of a top general untill he was dismissed for conduct breaching and attempt to kill other members of the army whom made fun of his color.
333He then drafted into a near-by mercenary guild and began working small jobs untill he soon was given his own squad to lead.
334
335He is generally quiet, taking notice on what others say without them knowing. When he gets angry, his Right eye flashes a pale green and his tail begins flicking. When he feels like it, he can talk to others for long amounts of time.
336
337Yeah, that should be good...

365message detail I'm abit confused here, but here are mine:
366
367Name: Zanixia
368
369Color: Black
370
371Class: Oracle/Assasin
372
373Abilities:
374Essense stealer This attack allows her to absorb energy from elements, eg: Lightening, Speed. She can use the elements power as a blaster or to enchance her own abilities.
375Demon Flare
376This attack gives way to her dark side (that is assuming her light side is default) it's used to summon magic to transform her body and beat the **** out of her enemies. This does wipe out a lot of her energy, though. I won't describe it now because I'll spoil the suprise.
377Mind sphere
378Uses this ability to move heavy items around and can look into the mind of others to see what they are thinking. It is for this reason she is an oracle.
379
380Physical Description:
381A general black pikmin, but has foldaway bat-wings which are incredibly flexible. Wears a leather belt, pants pants and a blue shirt. Her weapons are two silver Shurikan (sort of like bladed rings that you throw) Her ears are also unnaturally pointed and at the end of her tail there are bronze spikes. She has a piece missing out of her ear and a tatoo on the back of her leg.
382
383Short Bio: Came from a training house from far off up in the mountains and became an assasin. Nobody knows about her life before that, and she doesn't give the information to just anyone either.
384
385Personality: Mostly she seems to be somewhat withdrawn. Because she's trained to be a killer, she doesn't give a lot away. She's tough and clever, though is kind of paranoid and can get obsessive about things. Though underneath her shell she's loyal towards friends and has a rather violent temper.

391message detail Let's see...
392
393Name: Shadow
394
395Color: Black (I like Black Pikmin...)
396
397Class: Heavy Assault Warrior/Lesser Spellcaster
398
399Weapons: Claw and Tail weapons, mostly, but he is proficient with all types of weaponry.
400
401Main Deity: Zeromus
402
403Other Deities acknowledged: Chaos, Injustica
404
405Abilities: Shadow has a few spells, mostly for personal things though, but has many, MANY physical abilities. Here are a few:
406
407Rage (Semi-Passive): As Shadow takes or dishes out damage, his rage builds. The more it builds, the more damage he can deal. He also becomes bulkier and faster, but slowly loses control.
408
409Hatred: Builds up a bunch of rage automatically, makes his hands glow red, and increases rate of rage increasing.
410
411Berserker Rush: Blasts Rage all the way to the maximum. He glows with a demonic black aura, gets considerably bulky for a Pikmin, and becomes much, MUCH stronger and faster. In this state, he feels no pain, pity, or remorse, and cannot be stopped unless killed or this wears off, which can take a few minutes. When it wears, off, however, the pain he should have felt while attacking catches up to him. Shouldn't really matter, as he can take out a platoon of soldiers before this wears off. Requires a long time to recharge.
412
413Battle Roar: Shadow roars, increasing his and his allies' morale and lowering any enemies morale, giving his side the advantage. Lowers his rage a bit.
414
415Subterranean Spikes: Think Lurker attack (Starcraft: Brood War). He shoots his tail into the ground, and as it travels along, spikes shoot up from the ground. Again, much like a Lurker attack, but he's not restricted to firing straight ahead.
416
417Physical description:
418
419Number one thing: His tail. It's about 30 feet long. Yeah, that's long. However, he can absorb the skin and muscle back into his body to retract it, then extend it again when he needs to. There are no bones in it, which makes it flexible. Next up, he mostly wears a blackened, enchanted plate armor set. The enchantment allows it to aborb itself and then extend again with his tail, as well as providing minor protection from spells. On his hands, the armor is shaped into large claws, and all along the tail there are spikes. His stem is also covered with smaller spikes, and over his flower is a blade. As for his eyes, his left eye has a long scar over it, keeping it permanately shut. His right eye is normal with a blood red pupil.
420
421Shadow has a very strong physical presence, and is quite bulky for a Pikmin. His skin is laced with scars. He's around 20.
422
423Bio:
424
425Not much is known about Shadow. The main thing the Black Pikmin know is that he's a merciless warrior, and that's pretty much all that matters to them. He just appeared one day, seemingly from nowhere, with a large scar on his eye, as well as several other cuts and wounds. He was healed by the Black Pikmin's healers, but the scars remained and they could not fix his eye. The whole time, he muttered something about, "Revenge..."

436
437First off, what are you talking about, TBW?
438
43930 Ft, TUM? 30 Inches (or centimeters). Remember, we're dealing with PIKMIN
440
441Next, some more abilities for my Oracle...
442
443Looking glass: Ability that lets another see him/herself through another's eyes. Can be harmful, mentally and emotionally...
444
445Truth's Blessing [Passive]: Cannot be tempted to betray himself, and is gifted with insight into the workings of other people and cultures. (Like Socialogy and Psychology) However, it is double bladed, as he cannot tell a lie. At all.
446
447Holy Shield: Protective Barrier surronds his target and keeps them safe from the dark. (the greater the amount of people, the more strain)
448
449Lord's Blessing: A blessing which gifts strength, intelligence, and honor.
450
451Ray of Hope: (not yet discovered) Powerful Blast which drains half his health (at weakest). And, when was first discovered (as in created as a spell, not by him), destroyed entire army, but cost the Caster her life.
452
453Love's Remedy: Heals of poison/disease/curses
454
455*may be more later in RP*

474
475*Talis*
476
477Here I stand, in Pelphi, at the altar of my main god, Truth. It is one of the few moments I can spend alone, without masses seeking answers. I miss the peace of my priest days. I wish I could, just one more time, see the world through my eyes. A curse on Dhade, and all the Priests of Zeromus!
478
479"Oracle! An Emmisary from the Queendom Blue and a Knight of the Red Kingdom! They seek an audience!" One of the Bulbmin who serve me, Cian, I believe.
480
481"Send them in." There goes my peace.
482
483"Together?"
484
485"Yes. They both have the same question." Who will win? How can I prevent them from winning?
486
487"It is an honor to meet you, great Oracle. My name is Daryl. I have brought an offering of underwater-grown nectar." It is the Emmisary, even without the underwater-grown hint, her voice is like the cool waves.
488
489"A privilage, Priest of Truth. I am Setzer, Knight of the Flaming Brand. Lesser Lord of the Southern Province. I bring no offering, but I swear fealty to you, Liege." Prideful one, he is. Fealty... Ah yes, I forget a knight's chivalrous code.
490
491"I too swear fealty!" Now Daryl... when will they learn bribes will not change the minds of the noble gods?
492
493"Fealty... That has never happened to an Oracle! Hahahaha! Now, what are your questions? Or do you have any that do not concern your homelands?"
494
495Stunned looks on their faces. "Yes, I know. And here is the answer...
496
497Both will fall. As your gods cannot defeat eachother, you cannot. Your monarchs will call me a heretic and try to have me burned, but you must settle your differences soon. Lest both fall and you are being hunted by the creatures that once drove your chariots! Both will receed to the final stronghold, and collapse without the necessary resources. Go, deliver your message! And then return. You swore fealty, did you not?"

502message detail I might as well add a couple more skills for variety...
503
504Dragon Combo: Flare launches into a flurry of attacks, each hitting with the force of a singe. Culmulative hits have a rage-like effect building up.
505
506Wing Blade: Flare conjures a massive scythe blade of raging fire, and swings in large arcs, destroying literally everything in sight.
507
508Inferno: It's basically an upped version of Dragon Breath, where instead less of a catalyst is required to conjure the flame, and more powerful.
509
510Salamander: An even further upped version of Dragon Breath, a small amount of blood is required as a sacrifice, allowing Flare to "breathe out" a raging dragon of pure flame, one that explodes cataclysmically on impact.
511
512Phoenix Flare: This is Flare's MOST powerful skill, which involves intense concentration and energy to conjure. By concentrating, Flare produces the fiery wings of a phoenix, protruding from one end of his staff, creating an almost MASSIVE sword. He then gains incredible speed, reaction, and strength, that is, until the spell drains his energy dry.

522FWIP!
523
524This is the sound made by an arrow as it is fired. Why has that sound been made? Well, I'm at the archery range, training. Even though my main means of attack are my claws and tail, having something that can firea a very long range is good, as even my tail, long as it is, isn't long enough sometimes.
525
526I nocked another arrow and fired. FWIP! Once again, it split through the previous arrow. I smirked. Even without the use of one of my eyes, I was still a great marksman. The instructor passed by my spot and frowned.
527
528"Would you mind NOT destroying every single arrow you fire? The fletchers are awfully angry at you, making them carve so many new arrows just because you keep spliting them during PRACTICE."
529
530"Is it my fault if my aim is perfect?"
531
532"Actually, yes. You could PURPOSEFULLY miss the center, you know."
533
534FWIP!
535
536My next arrow was just off dead center, actually touching the previous arrow I'd fired. The instructor still wasn't smiling.
537
538"That's better." He continued along the way.
539
540FWIP! Once again, I split the middle arrow, smirking.

547
548^|Zanixia|^
549I aimed the shurikan, perfecting the angle of my elbow. Naturally, in battle I would not have time to consider this, but I must try to perfect my aim nevertheless to increase damage.
550I fired the shurikan, my arm snapping straight in a blur. The shurikan sliced directly through the trunk of the sapling, slicing it in two. I unleashed the second shurikan, and that split easily into the boulder. I straightened up in a satisfied way. It was enough training for today.
551I walked back to the campire, noting my medicine was ready. I lifted it easily, sniffing in the strangely fruity smell of the potion. I sipped it, the icy feel sliding easily down my throat. Then I added the cream and mashed with the marble rock I had found earlier. I sipped my drink again. Urgh. Disgusting. But it is nessassary to drink so it strengthens my bones and muscles.
552I walked casually over to the stump and rock and retrieved my shurikan, and picked up a stick and began whittling it on the edge of my shurikan so they did not become dull.
553I then replaced them back into my belt and splashed some water over my face.
554I turned towards the city which the mountain I stood on gazed at. The city of blue pikmin, I believe. Water is plentiful here, though I so far have refused to come near the city. I will have no part it the pathetic war between blue and red pikmin. It will simply cause pointless destruction and give the Gods something to watch.
555For a fleeting moment, I thought of the dojo up in the south-west mountains. I suppose they will wonder why I left, but I have my reasons. No doubt other Ninja will take my place.
556I sighed and shook my head. I would have to move on soon.
557

559ps: Forgot to mention this is the character description, but instead of a leaf, Zanixia has a sort of orb of green smoke above the stem.

I became silent once more. In the distance, a breadbug was striding to the clearing. "OH BREADBUG, IT GOING TO GET EAT!" It ran into the clearing, trying to find the scource of the noise. It turned its back on me. "HA HA! BREADBUG SUCK!" It yelped, and turned around. It had seen nothing. It turned around again. "RAWR." It quickly turned around again. "WHAT YOU STARING AT?!" It yelped, turned tail, and ran. I laughed hard... "HAHAHAHA. FUNNY."

591Then there was a Giant Breadbug. "****!" I yelled. It came closer. "SHOO! GLOWY NOT LIKE BREAD OF LOAF!" The Giant Breadbug jumped backwards. That was funny. You don't get much entertainment around here. The Giant Breadbug grunted to the smaller one, and they both walked off.

635"INGRATE! COME BACK HERE!"
636
637A figure bobbed and weaved his way throughout a crowd, shaking bag tied to the end of a long staff, while a massive shopkeeper was in hot pursuit, bowling over innocent pedestrians and destroying pushcarts.
638
639Calculating his means of escape, the figure, then suddenly cut into a small alley. Nearly out of breath, the monstrous shopkeeper followed in turn. His figure nearly filled the narrow space, and he began to slowly back the figure into a corner... there was no escape.
640
641"Ye little runt... no one steals from me," growled the now, quite homicidal, and out of breath troll, "those who do... I just grind their skulls into a pulp!"
642
643He roared, and ran forward, meaty arms ready to throttle...
644
645But before he could get his grip, the figure had taken the bag with one hand, and catapulted himself into the air using his staff. Kicking off the shopkeeper's head, he gracefully rebounded himself off the narrow walls, and then flipped onto a roof. Leaning over, he gave a quite rude gesture, then disappeared. The shopkeeper let out a screech of fury, and upon hearing it, the figure snickered.
646
647===
648
649After roof hopping for a bit, I finally decided that I was free from danger, and I settled down on one fo the more luxurious roofs. Breathing hard, I laughed a bit, having outsmarted danger. Again.
650
651This place wasn't all that special... just a large city with a few rich people here and there. Really, its only redeeming trait is the fact that it hosts the Oracle... of... uh... (What was the name of this city again?) oh right! Pelphi!
652
653After getting disowned by my family, well, I had to strike out on my own. My parents paid large sums of gold to get me educated, then got sick of me and threw me out of the house. I remember my father's last few words:
654
655"If Volcanus can save your soul, then let him do it! It is not my responsibility to constantly baby you... so I must condemn you to the harsh realities of this world we live in."
656
657Really... its just all sentimental crap. They hated me, I disliked them... it all came out fine either way. I've never had a beter time... yet...
658
659I felt a bit guilty about the reckless abandon I lived my life with... but neverless, I don't miss home.
660
661Grabbing my sack, I examined my prize. It was large chunk of venison, freshly red from the slaughterhouse, and smelling excellent even uncooked. The scent of it made me drool, and I prepared to take it out, ready to fry with a quick Dragon's Breath...
662
663But a nagging little voice bothered me at the back of my head... it told me that I should not eat the meat, for I had commited a foul deed to obtain it, and should instead sacrifice it to the Gods at the altar of the Oracle. My bad side attempted to stop the voice, and eventually succeeded in beating it to a pulp, but it had done its deed: sighing, I placed that holy chunk of meat back into my pack, and started for the Grand Altar of the Oracle.
664
665Godamnit, I hate redemption.
666
667GM, I'm not sure if this will be fine with you, but if its possible for my guy to meeting up with your guy, then I'll do it... really, I can't just do anything yet.

693
694Another training day. These bore me, yet I'm forced to prove my meddle again and again. I don't see the point.
695
696Two weaklings with swords walked into the arena. Before we fought, we had to dull our blades so as not to harm each other. And no, don't dull the blade itself!
697
698I attached the first blade to one end, and the second blade to the other, forming my huthvir. I then put my fingers up to the blade, holding it between my index and middle fingers.
699
700"Geuloth du knifr." (Again, could someone tell me where to find the instructions on how to put symbols and symboled letters?)
701
702The effect of this was a small glow came between my fingers. I then moved them along both edges of the blade, and repeated with the other blade. The two novices did the same. Those two better not hit me, these things still leave bruises...
703
704They came at me, moving directly. How amatuerish. I hopped aside and smacked the one in front of me on the back of the head with the flat edge of a blade. The other one jumped over him and slashed at me. I calmly parried his blow, then flipkicked him away.
705
706The other one got up and charged again. I turned, spun the huthvir, and hit him in the back of the head and the front of his left shin at the same time, the effect of which was making him do a frontflip. I then calmly turned and stuck out my foot, catching other, who was attempting to sneak up on me, in the stomach. He was out in a second. The other one hopped up, only to get whacked in the back of the head again, this time hard. He was out too. I turned to the instructor.
707
708"I still don't see why I have to do this. What's the point of pitting me against amateurs like these two? If you're going to test my meddle, you should pit me against someone who can actually put up a fight."
709
710"The training is not for you, Black Art, but rather for the novices. Or have you forgotten that you're one of the highest ranked here?"
711
712"I don't want to be ONE of the highest ranked, I want to be the highest ranked! And besides, what will the novices learn from me kicking their asses?"
713
714"You should learn to cull your mouth. If you want to call the shots, I'll gladly take you. And number two, the highest ranked here happens to be a Heavy Assault Warrior. He'd slaughter you."
715
716"Not in a no-holds barred match."
717
718"While that may be true, he has no large and powerful spells like your own. All you'd have to do is mutter and word and he'd explode. Rather pointless."
719
720"Not if it gets me a higher rank..."
721
722"Enough of this. Return to your quarters. Perhaps next time I'll pit you against someone of your skill... but don't complain when you lose."
723
724I frowned, detached the blades from my huthvir, and walked off in a huff. "Oh don't worry... I won't lose..."

757
758"Thank you, Cian." The bulbmin leaves. I address my guest, "I'm sorry if I'm not as you expected, or if the Temple is not. I was blinded long ago."
759
760"I'm sorry of your eyesight, Oracle. I have come for redemption. I stole meat."
761
762That is all? No, he's not telling me something. Not ordinary meat, in the least.
763
764"I thought you could offer it as a gift to Vocanus or Chaos or someone..." Hahahahahahaha! Unsure of the gods? Well, we will see, now, shant we?
765
766"It will be done. As for your redemption," A poisoned pikmin, surronded by an army... "Near the land of Water is a clearing between mountains. A... unique person is there, bring him back alive and in one piece." "There are some who may resist Zeromus." "And, any others you may find near the mountains. Do this, return, and we will speak again."

842It was a lengthy walk, but I managed to easily find the Oracle's shrine; it was the biggest building in Pelphi, a massive temple on a cliff that rose above the city.
843
844Once I got there, a Bulbmin politely escorted to the Oracle, as I carried my sack, heavy with my regrets and meat.
845
846Of course, the Oracle himself gave me a huge shock.
847
848He was a pink pikmin. Peace-loving little midgets that did only talking and prophesizing... otherwise they did nothing on their own. It was pretty hard to speak politely to him... my disdain was obvious. But, he was the Oracle, a revered position for any person, regardless of race, and deserved the utmost respect. But it was difficult to do so.
849
850The pink one had dismissed the Bulbmin with a nod.
851
852"I'm sorry if I'm not as you expected, or if the Temple is not. I was blinded long ago."
853
854I took a closer look... he was telling the truth... his eyes were glazed over, as if they a layer that blocked all the light.
855
856"What a terrible fate," I thought, despite everything.
857
858I bowed deeply.
859
860"I'm sorry of your eyesight, Oracle. I have come for redemption. I stole meat. I thought that, maybe, to repent myself, I could offer it to Volcanus... or Chaos... or something like that..."

866
867"Damnit! I embarrased myself!"
868
869I burned a bit redder than usual (pretty hard to tell, considering I am red), and I noticed a wry smile appear on the face of the Oracle.
870
871"It will be done. As for your redemption..." he seemed to lose himself in thought, and his eyes became even more clouded...
872
873"Near the land of Water is a clearing between mountains. A... unique person is there... so bring him back alive and in one piece, that, and any others you may find near the mountains. Do this, return, and we will speak again."
874
875For a moment, I stood there with my mouth open.
876
877"I barely know this guy! I don't even know his godamn name, and he's already giving me orders! Why I oughta-"
878
879"And of course, imagining violence to commit against me is not what you intend, I hope?"
880
881"Godamnit."
882
883"No Oracle... not at all," I lied, quickly, "I will commence this task for you, and bring back this person you seek of... alive."
884
885"Then thank you... be on your way then. Cian! Please escort our friend out!"
886
887The Bulbmin came into the room, and led me back outside. I then began to walk toward the city.
888
889===
890
891Later, I was strolling down the streets... replaying the ambiguous directions of the Oracle... A clearing in the moutains... near the land of the Water... It seemed like an almost impossible location... yet...
892
893I had heard of a odd story... one that spoke of a holy place in the heart of the Nearby Mountains... it was a place where water flowed out of rock, feeding a small river that made its way through the rocky crags of the peaks... Legend told that the God of the Blues had struck that spot with the point of his sword, and summoned water out of nothing.
894
895"Ah well... seems like the best possible place... might as well check it out... not to mention its not too far from here."
896
897I noticed a pushcart peddler. On his cart were several of the juiciest apples I had ever seen. The owner himself was an old and fragile man... it would be easy to steal from him-
898
899"No... I'm not here to make people's lives miserable..."
900
901Going over, I tapped the old man on the shoulder. Turning around, I handed him some gold coins, and he bent over, picked three of the biggest apples, placed them in a sack, and handed it to me with a pleasant smile. Smiling back, I took the sack, and was on my way.
902
903It seemed odd... but buying those apples seemed to give me more satisfaction than any other heist I had ever commited.
904
905Ah well.
906
907I think this was a good log... hopefully, I can start getting some fighting scenes...

917Something very strange is going on. I'm not sure of where I stand in this situation...I can feel something stirring.
918I looked out into the horizen. I was in clear overview of Pelphi, though I would never set foot in a city for no reason. I have to stay away from cities, as somebody may recgonise me.
919I was also near some kind of training area of black pikmin. They are very loud, and they fight very often. I should keep my distance from them. I'm not afraid of fighting, but I prefer to keep a low profile. As long as nobody goes out into the area of the forest with the watefall, where I reside. (coughUltramindcough) I probably won't run into anyone. But someone is making their way toward the mountain. I can hear their thoughts yammering on from the foot of the mountain.(coughDAOcough)
920I must stay alert.

962
963I gather two priests, purple and white. We begin the sacrifice. The Purple checks the skies for signs of the gods, the white finds several wines and oils which are required -- And I decide which god it must go to. He asked for Volcanus and Chaos, but the meat is large enough to be split into 3 portions.
964
965Nemesis, Tempus, Natura, Diana... Which will be most helpful to him? Rightous Anger? Time? Earthly Protection? Hunting?
966
967In his trial, saving the interesting one, battling a seemingly invincible monster, facing darkness... What he may become.
968
969Interesting. Yes. Very interesting. The fate of those around me. Bulbmin, for example. They will forge their own kingdom. I wish them the best, for the future is both definate and indefinate. Things will happen, it's how they happen, or when. If the Red and Blue kingdomes continue to battle eachother, they will be destroyed in a few hundred years. But if they stopped fighting for the most part, they will last thousands.
970
971He will need time. Especially with an angry demon in the heart of the Mountain...
972
973"Tempus, God of Time! Chaos, Greater God of Destruction! Volcanus, God of Fire & Patron of the Red Civilization!" the Purple priest takes up the sacrificial knife.
974
975"Bless your red servant who did steal this and come for redemption! Give him the strength to destroy the Demon and other foes in his way! Give him Time to save the one who is both blessed and cursed! Let fire and fury race through his veins as it never has before!"
976
977The priest released the snagrat blood, which pooled onto the sacrifices, and each enveloped to the gods differently. Volcanus' by flame. Chaos' by lightning. Tempus' by deterioration.
978
979It is done. The meat is sacrificed. I will retire to my chambers.

1003
1004Now I can probably demonstrate some of my skills... like perhaps Vortex and Fury?
1005
1006/=lare
1007
1008I was on the outskirts of the city now... it was a place built on a series of cliffs, so the moutains were literally right next to Pelphi itself. My trip would only take a few hours... it was a relatively simple task.
1009
1010Climbing up the relatively jagged terrain, I managed to get myself onto equal ground. I took a breath, and from up here, I saw a spectacular view of Pelphi. It truly took my breath away.
1011
1012But then... I felt a sharp pain in my side, as if some foreign element had forced its way into my body. Gasping for breath, I fell on the ground, and almost rolled off the ledge, when suddenly the pain receded. Picking myself up, I... didn't feel like myself. But I shrugged that suspicion off, and continued climbing.
1013
1014As I got higher and higher, the temperature began to get lower and lower... not freezing, but beyond what I was used to. I shivered a bit, then continued climbing. As the ground evened out, I took a leisured place, then slipped and flipped backwards. Dazed, I heard the light gurgling of water, and noticed that the rocks up here were wet, recently. I must be close.
1015
1016Careful to not slip, I trekked up... and the sound of flowing water became greater and greater... a small river was flowing down the ridges to my left, and a large amount of luscious plant life was apparent. Out in the distance, I saw a humongous waterfall... pouring out of nowhere, as if the moutain itself summoned it.
1017
1018"Yes! My destination is right there! Now all I gotta do is some sweet talking then-"
1019
1020WHIZ!
1021
1022A Shuriken flew past my face, and I quickly whipped my head to the left as it lodged itself in a thick trunk.
1023
1024"Holy crap that was lucky... I would have never normally been able to do that..."
1025
1026"Hmm... you dodged my shuriken," said a voice, "that's quite impressive.
1027
1028A lithe figure smoothly slipped from behind a tree out into the open.
1029
1030"A female ninja? Holy crap!"
1031
1032"A female ninja? Hah... holy crap indeed," she said, with an amused tone.
1033
1034"OMFG A MIND READER!"
1035
1036"Hah... yes to that too," she giggled, in a sort of I'm-going-to-make-you-suffer-badly sort of way.
1037
1038"Look lady," I said, a bit pissed, "I got a previous appointment here... and if you don't get out of my way, I'm gonna have to beat you into the ground."
1039
1040"Well then, that won't be too hard won't it?" She disappeared in a flash.
1041
1042"Oh crap-"
1043
1044"Boo!"
1045
1046"What the he-"
1047

But I'll follow your post anyway, but ignore the 'giggle' and 'boo' comment.

1057|^Zanixia^|
1058It appears my training is not yet complete. If an idiot like that can dodge one of my shurikan, I must require more training. I walked slowly over to the pikmin, and touched his forehead. He was thinking nothing.
1059Unconscious... I concluded.
1060Either that or dead.
1061I picked up his hand and pressed my finger into the wrist, checking for a pulse. Yes, a pulse was detectable.
1062I was careles. I should have moved when I heard the pikmin moving up the mountain.
1063You stupid fool! I raged silently.
1064I needed to leave the premisis before the intruder regained consciousness, and allow him to think I was merely an illusion.
1065But which way could I go? The black pikmin dojo was the opposite direction from Pelphi, which would be the best route. While I tried to conclude what to do, I heard someone up ahead.
1066"Shadow...meet your opponenent."
1067I retrieved the shurikan and moved over to the lake, asorbing the essense of the water.
1068This should allow me to move stealthly. Perphaps I can sneak away from the fight undetected.
1069I headed vaguely in the direction away from the unconscious pikmin, trying to stay away from the dojo, and moved away through the trees.

1158Shadow walked into the arena, looking forward at his opponent. It was another Black Pikmin (duh) but there was something about him... number one, his weapon. number two, he seemed to have a cloak made of shadows.
1159
1160Yeah, that's Black Art. He looked bored as per usual, but remained unable to see his opponent's face due to the armor. He looked at the instructor. The instructor smirked and waved a hand toward Black Art, looking at the armored guy.
1161
1162"Shadow... meet your opponent."
1163
1164Black Art's jaw dropped.
1165
1166"I'm supposed to fight THIS guy in a normal match? The guy's a ****ing fortress!"
1167
1168Shadow chuckled. He liked this guy's attitude already.
1169
1170The instructor calmly looked at Black Art. "You said you wanted a tougher opponent. Well, here you go."
1171
1172Black Art pointed to his huthvir. "This thing is supposed to hurt him?"
1173
1174"Not my problem."
1175
1176Shadow chuckled again. "Eh, why not make it no-holds barred? Let him use his little spells. They will be of no use to him. And I'll even take off my helmet."
1177
1178Shadow took his helmet off, revealing his scarred, welded shut eye. Black Art smirked.
1179
1180"Heavy Assault Warrior, huh? He's got only one eye! Looks useless to me."
1181
1182"I'll have you know that he hits the target dead center every time at the archery range. Meaning he splits every arrow he fires... except, of course, the last one."

1189
1190Shadow's shadow (Heh) shot up at him like a spear. Of course, by the time it got there, he no longer was. Instead, he was charging at Black Art. Shadow jumped, flipped, and came down at Black Art claws first. Black Art, however, remained calm.
1191
1192"Thrysta."
1193
1194Shadow was sent flying across the arena and into a wall, plowing through it. He then proceeded to plow through a tree, and landed next to another Black Pikmin, who hastily jumped away and out of sight before he could say anything. He jumped back up, angered, and dashed back into the dojo.
1195
1196Black Art was confident that he'd already won, but that quickly vanished when Shadow plowed back into the dojo, making another hole in the wall.

1206Shadow froze instantly. He struggled to move, but wasn't able to. Black Art had a smug look on his face. One that Shadow severely wanted to wipe off... He growled... then roared. This broke Black Art's concentration, freeing Shadow. That was all the time he needed. He pounced and socked Black Art in the face, scratching him with the sharp claws on his gauntlets. He moved to punch again, but Black Art countered by slashing at him with his huthvir. Shadow jumped away.
1207
1208"You DARE to injure ME? BRISINGR!"
1209
1210It looked as if Shadow had exploded. Black Art smirked, though he was very angry. The bastard had cut his face! HIS face!
1211
1212He had more than that to worry about. He then noticed a hole in the ground where Shadow had been... and then spikes started shooting up from the ground, traveling toward him!
1213
1214Black Art jumped away, doing his best to avoid the spikes. However, one managed to hit him, cutting his leg and making him lose concentration on his shadow cloak, causing it to dissipate. Black Art scowled and moved a hand over his cut leg.
1215
1216"Waise heill."
1217
1218The sparks appeared around the cut as it sealed itself, making it seem as if they'd never been there. He repeated on his cut face. The spikes then stopped coming, and Shadow jumped from his hole in the ground... yanking the mother of all tails up from the ground as well, making a large carving in the ground in the shape that the spikes had gone. Black Art gaped at Shadow's 30-foot long, spiked plate armor covered tail. Shadow landed, smirking.
1219
1220"Impressed?" Black Art shook his head, angry again.
1221
1222"You wish! Thrysta vindr!"
1223
1224At once, Shadow's air supply seemed cut off. He clutched his throat, trying to breathe, but got nothing. His vision started to blur. No... I won't die against this wimp!
1225
1226Black Art had time to turn his head toward the whistling noise, and was then viciously whacked by Shadow's tail, sending him flying and puncturing his back. Shadow sucked in a deep breath, then angrily shot the end of his tail toward Black Art.
1227
1228BA, however, quickly jumped up in a rage. "Skolir!" Shadow's tail stopped about three inches from him. He then pointed at Shadow. "Infuriate!"
1229
1230This had to be, quite possibly, the least intelligent thing he'd ever done. Shadow immediately bulked up, his skin acquiring a slight red tint. He grinned evilly.

1240Energy gathered about a foot in front of Shadow, then exploded like a miniature supernova, blasting him through the wall and a few trees.
1241
1242Black Art lowered his arms, panting a bit, sure he'd won.
1243
1244He was again proved wrong as Shadow literally tore down the entire wall as he broke back in. He was now, to put it simply, pissed. He issued a deafening roar, then shouted, "BERSERKER RUSH!"
1245
1246He instantly became about three times as bulky, and became rather a dark red as opposed to black. His left eye opened, to reveal a cut through it. It was absolutely filled with blood, making it a demonic red color. He snorted like a bull, then charged at Black Art at sub-sonic speeds.
1247
1248Black Art had no time to dodge before he was rammed as if by a train. Shadow carried him through another wall, through a few trees, and finally into the side of a mountain, burying him deep in the wall. He jumped away, then shot his tail forward, about to spear BA.
1249
1250"Enough!"
1251
1252His tail stopped an inch away from the target. He turned toward the instructor.
1253
1254"That is quite enough, Shadow. Congratulations. You win. Again."
1255
1256Black Art lifted his head from where he was. "No fair! I was about to win!"
1257
1258"Hardly."
1259
1260Shadow returned to his regular black color, shrank to normal size, and his left eye sealed shut again. He walked back into the dojo and retrieved his helmet, then walked away.
1261
1262"Now you see why I pitted you against beginners so you could train them. Shadow is far to powerful to be beaten, even by a Sorcerer such as yourself. Now, get yourself back to your quarters. You wouldn't want all those cuts to become permanate, would you?"
1263
1264Black Art looked at himself. He had multiple cuts all over himself. As the instructor walked away, he howled in rage.

1273message detail Hey GM, is it OK if I add a few more abilities to Zanix?
1274
1275|^Zanixia^|
1276A large battle..was that the results of the earth tremor I had felt just now? I don't know, but this worries me.
1277I drifted vaguely through the forest, trying to come to some sort of conclusion..but I was at a complete loss.
1278Just then, I heard a rustling in the bushes. I quickly grabbed my shurikan.
1279Could this be the intruder from before?
1280I threw my shurikan, keeping my eye firmly on the target to see what could happen. I heard someone say,
1281"..!"
1282And then there was a strange crunching sound. I moved cautiously, to see what happened. My bladed chakram had missed the target by inches, and had spilt off a thick branch from a tree. My 'target' removed his helmet.
1283I didn't move. But I immediantly got a flash of thought, even though I had done nothing to use my power.
1284An attacker? Is this that pikmin from before?
1285I decided I may as well say something.
1286"You appear to have more skill then I expected." I kept my guard up, perparing.
1287The pikmin blinked, then turned and saw the shurikan embedded into the tree. A smirk flickered across his face.
1288"Impressive." I could tell he meant this. Then I recieved another of his thoughts.
1289Hm....A ninja?
1290He turned to me and surveyed me.
1291"What if that had killed someone?"
1292I shrugged.
1293"Enemies should be prepared for anything. If you had been injured I conclude that you probably would not have recieved fatal damage."
1294Silence for a moment, then,
1295"Where did you come from, anyway? I ran into you before, didn't I?"
1296Another nod.
1297"You were battling another pikmin at the time. I moved."
1298He snorted.
1299"That guy was a total pansy."
1300I didn't know what to say to this, so I asked,
1301"Who are you?"
1302"Shadow." he grunted. "And you are?"
1303I quickly considered this, then replied.
1304"Zanixia."
1305Shadow was about to say something else, then another tremor rippled along the surface of the earth.
1306"What the hell?" Shadow said, more suprised then anything else.
1307Then there was another rustle. I held up my shurikan, and Shadow bend his head slightly, watching the bush.
1308"Who's there?" another voice called out. (coughDAOcough)
1309"Get ready."
1310
1311Take it away, DAO and Ultramind. Though Ultramind, could you add a little of what you were doing before Shadow ran inot Zanix?

1331
1332I awoke in a slow bout of searing pain. Man... my head hurts like a mother... god that lady ninja really layed down the smackdown... how long have I been out?
1333
1334Sitting up, I rubbed my head... I didn't feel any bruises or lumps for the matter, so I appeared to be fine.
1335
1336"Interesting... it looks like she only wanted to get me out of the way..."
1337
1338Getting up, I checked out the surroundings. Silence, except for the calm gurgling of the water. I heard a light clicking noise, but dismissed it as only an insect or something similar. I walked over to the waterfall itself.
1339
1340It was massive fall from the direct source of the water... perhaps two hundred feet... A smooth mist permeated the air, making it slightly stuffy, but cool and refreshing none the less. Bending over near the water that ran down, I cupped my hands, and grabbed a drink... ah, delicious.
1341
1342But oddly enough, the clicking sound I sensed before seemed to intensify... as if whatever insect I had heard before seemed to be right near me... turning around, I reached for my staff, yanked it out, and assumed a cautious fighting stance.
1343
1344A small splash made my attention. Nearby, a puddle of saliva began to slowly spread, and soak into the ground. Whipping my head up, I saw something, then heard a massive screech.
1345
1346Hearing a whizzing sound, I ducked, only to have the spot where my head was before to be filled with a massive piece of metal... a scythe. A rock behind exploded into fragments as the weapon made contact.
1347
1348Seeing it screech in fury, I finally got my glimpse of my attacker... it was massive beetle like creature, with a thick and armored carapace. Covered in a cloak, I could not see its face, but I could see the mandibles poking out, drooling. It arms and legs were large and muscular, and he was vaguely pikminoid... if that's what you call the bastard child of Satan and Death.
1349
1350Ripping its scythe out of the ground, it rushed toward me incredibly fast. Swinging, I jumped to the left to dodge the blow as pieces of earth were torn up in a violent manner. Counter-attacking, I conjured a small bit of flame on the end of my staff with a few words, and then let loose a dozen strikes to the creature's flank... to no effect. Roaring, it whipped around and nailed me in the chest with the scythe's handle, slamming me into the hard walls of the clearing. A sharp pain shot out of my lungs, and I grabbed my chest.
1351
1352"Crap... I think it broke one of my ribs... oh my god... urgh..."
1353
1354Rushing toward me, leaning against the wall, it swung its scythe in a sweeping arc. I ducked quickly, and rolled to the slide, just in time to see a large fissure appear in the rock. Though I the pain was unbearable, I ignored the sharp sensation and grabbed my staff with both hands.
1355
1356Charging at the creature, it swung at me, intending to rip me in half. Deftly dodging the blow, I slammed its handle down with my staff, and jumped onto it. Swinging my staff back, I yelled out an incantation as the tip of my weapon flashed the color of fire, wildly shifting colors from white to red to orange to yellow in an uncontrollable mass. I then struck the creature in the chest, and the energy released, in a spiraling vortex of pure flame. Roaring, I pushed with all my energy, and the pyroclasmic tornado proceeded to narrow, and it pushed the creature down... then exploded.
1357
1358In a white flash, the creature was blasted into the ground, literally piledrived by the sheer force of the vortex. Dust exploded into the air, making visibility near none. Gasping for breath, I leaned on my staff, and stared down in satisfaction...

1367
1368But then I felt a sudden wind, as if a hurricane gust had been summoned from nowhere. A moment of agony followed, as a long slash appeared across my chest, blood pouring out. I felt another rib crack.
1369
1370Collapsing to the ground, the sensation of pain was now unbearable... screaming in agony, I barely managed to stay concentrated on my goal.
1371
1372"Stay alive... and kill the godamn thing."
1373
1374Leaning on my staff, yanking myself up, and sceaming even more, I managed to weakly stand, grim smile on my face. Holding my staff with one hand, and my chest with the other, I began to feel the hot sensation of blood pour over my fingers. The dust seemed to settle, and over the large blast crater, stood the creature... the living Reaper.
1375
1376Choking out a mangled incantation, I closed my eyes for a bit, and began to collect what remained of my energy for the final blow... my staff began to glow madly, as it ignited into a brilliant flame, becoming all the more intense by the second. And every second, I felt my life slipping away more and more.
1377
1378"Well buddy-buck," I managed to say, albeit weakly, "looks like you did a good number on me... only common courtesy that I do the same huh?"
1379
1380The Reaper spoke not a single word.
1381
1382"Hah," I giggled hysterically, "then maybe I might as well inflict as much hurt on you while I can... I intend to pulverize you back into the bastardly ground you were concieved from."
1383
1384It once again said nothing.
1385
1386The flame became brighter and brighter... as I felt weaker and weaker. Barely managing to stand, I pushed to pump as much energy as I possibly could into that final attack. My vison was waning, as I lapsed more and more into unconsciousness. I sensed the last bit of it disappearing... and I expected that I'd most likely die.
1387
1388"Volcanus... please forgive me for the sins I have commited..."
1389
1390But I didn't die... in fact, I slowly felt as if my vitality was returning... feeling my chest, I noticed the wound on it slowly closing up... and it was only next that I observed my staff.
1391
1392Wings of perhaps the most brilliant flame I had ever seen sprouted from the sides... moving as if... as if... alive. It was beautiful, like the most glorious eternal flame. Then, those two wings flapped one last time, and swung up, melding together... forming a burning blade. And I felt different.
1393
1394It seemed odd... I felt as if the world had slowed down... as if everything moved in slow motion... and this feeling of strength... it rushed through my veins like a drug. I was not myself... but it was for the better.
1395
1396Picking myself off of the ground, I tested the weight of my new weapon... it was light, light like a feather, lighter than anything I had ever wielded. And it glowed with a deadly shine, lethal and elegant.
1397
1398Dropping a leg back, I set myself in my most aggressive fighting stance. I then addressed the creature, who seemed now to be quite perplexed.
1399
1400"Before," I said, smile coming to my lips, "I had lied about beating you into the ground... you see though, now I intend to kill you... ripping you into as many pieces as I can muster. Are you ready? Are you ready for me?"
1401
1402Seeing a flicker of surprise, I charged, faster than any charge I had ever done before. Heck, my own speed even scared myself.
1403
1404"Time to eat some major pain, ass munch."

1420
1421That battle had been boring. Black Art was a pansy.
1422
1423I was currently sitting on a rock, with a sharpening tool in hand, sharpening the claw blades on my armor, as I'd taken the gauntlets off. The grinding sound was soothing.
1424
1425My instructor had been impressed with my skill, but was rather angry at me for taking out the wall of the dojo. At least I got to piss off Black Art. That should have taken him down a notch or two... Zeromus knows his ego needs deflating.
1426
1427A sudden rustle caught my attention. I put my gauntlets back on and pushed my way through the bushes. A whistling sound alerted me, and I tilted my head to the side as something shot past me and embedded itself into a tree, cutting a large branch off in the process. If I hadn't moved my head, that thing would have split it in half!
1428
1429I turned, took off my helmet, and examined the object. It was a small, silver disk with bladed edges. How that thing managed to lob off a branch was beyond me.
1430
1431'An attacker... Is this that Pikmin from before?'
1432
1433I heard a nearly inaudible thud as something came down behind me. I quickly turned around to see a Black Pikmin.
1434
1435"You appear to have more skill than I expected," it said. It looked guarded.
1436
1437I looked back at the silver disk and smirked. "Impressive..."
1438
1439I examined the Pikmin more closely. It had two bat-like wings that were folded back, and was wearing a blue shirt with leather pants and belt. It's ears were pointed, and one had a little piece missing. Its tail had bronze spikes on the end. From the shape of its body, I'd say it was a girl.
1440
1441I looked back at her weapon. Now I recognized it... that was a shurikan.
1442
1443'Hmm... A ninja?'
1444
1445I looked back at her.
1446
1447"You could have killed me with that thing."
1448
1449She shrugged. "Enemies should be prepared for anything. If you had been injured I conclude that you probably would not have recieved fatal damage."
1450
1451I severely doubted that. The thing had nearly taken off my head!
1452
1453Something about her seemed familiar. "Where did you come from, anyway? I ran into you before, didn't I?"
1454
1455She nodded. "You were battling another pikmin at the time. I moved."
1456
1457I snorted. The memory of Black Art was pathetic. He was a disgrace to my kind. "That guy was a total pansy."
1458
1459She seemed at a loss for words, so she changed the subject. "Who are you?"
1460
1461"Shadow," I grunted. "And you are?"
1462
1463"Zanixia."
1464
1465I opened my mouth to say something else... and then a tremor rocked the ground. I went down on one hand, like an animal about to attack. "What the hell?" I muttered.
1466
1467The tremor quickly passed. Another rustle in the bushes caught my attention. A foreign voice. "Who's there?"
1468
1469I narrowed my eye. "Get ready..."

1514The screech of a phoenix penetrated the air as I strafed to the right to avoid an overhead slash. Sliding to a stop as chunks of earthly shrapnel flew in all directions, I sprinted in, and nailed the Reaper with the blunt end of the fiery blade, (whatever you call blunt on a weapon that destructive either way. 0_o) juggling it into the air. I then leapt up, and struck him back down with the other end of my staff, catapulting it into the ground with inhuman strength.
1515
1516A cloud of dust smoked up from the impact, as as the sound of the hit echoed throughout the moutains. Landing down, I went next to the hole, and immediately ducked. Over my head was the creature's scythe. Having heard it and seen it with my enhanced reactions, it was quite simple to dodge it. Staring up at it, I pulled up my sword, used it to slam down the Reaper's weapon, pinning the creature's arm. Then, I used it as an anchor to whip a swift roundhouse kick across the creature's face, knocking him back. Ichor spewed as flecks of saliva went everywhere.
1517
1518Leg still in the air, I watched as the Reaper slowly dragged itself up. It seemed very injured... and apparently, I had whipped off his hood. Through the dust of the debris, I saw its face.
1519
1520It possessed four slit-like eyes, dark in color, intense, emitting an evil aura. A mouth appeared, opening and closing, filled with small, but serrated teeth designed to rip and tear. Finally, the mandibles themselves seemed to be coated in a sharp surface, and seemed to just ooze an odd green acid. Seeing it drip to the ground, I noticed a few bits of gas coming up.
1521
1522"Acid..."
1523
1524Screeching like an unearthly siren, it gave a cry that indented much fear within my soul. A dark fire began to slowly envelope it, a dark fire unlike that of Volcanus... but rather, of the Hell itself.
1525
1526Suddenly sprinting forward, I ran as fast as I could. And it began to laugh, an eerie, twisted version of any voice. And one that haunted me in innumerable ways. Raising my blade, I brought it down, right on top of its infernal head... but felt no resistance.
1527
1528Instead of splitting the creature in half, it simply disappeared in a burst of black mist. Then, grains of sand began to fall, all around me... then stopped, as if the sands of an hourglass had run dry. And that same twisted voice came again, out of the mist.
1529
1530"Do not think that you have won so easily... you are but sin," it hissed, sending chills down my spine, "and I am the redeemer..."
1531
1532"I will follow you... until you have repent for the crimes you have commited... till the very end of the earth. You have been..." it paused, as if contemplating the word, "branded..."
1533
1534Then, as if I suddenly was a magnet, the mist rushed toward me, and drilled its way into my chest. Screaming in agony, I writhed in pain as this new force within me slowly began to settle in... when the pain receded, I felt unclean... filthy... branded... marked to die...
1535
1536The wings of my blade began to slowly flicker off, like the last ashes of a dying fire. Giving one final burst, they exploded into nothingness, leaving me with once again, simply a staff, no feeling of rejuviation, and evil within me. And once again, I felt like the life was slipping out of me... and I was tired.
1537
1538I grabbed my chest, feeling for my heartbeat. It was still there.
1539
1540"Hell, at least I know I'm alive..."

1554
1555"Who are you?" the pikmin asked, with a slightly amused tone. It was obvious he thought I was a bit inferior. Only I bit. I hoped.
1556
1557"Flare..." I replied, weakly, barely managing to gasp out my reply. Remembering that I had kepy a trusty canteen of hard whiskey in my back packet, I tanked it out, and swigged some. Some semblance of "normalcy" returned. Blinking my eyes a bit, I got up and made eye contact with this new stranger.
1558

1568
1569When the intruder failed to come to us, I put down my helmet and slowly made my way through the bushes. What I found was perplexing.
1570
1571It was a Red Pikmin, garbed in a karate style outfit. It was caked in blood, and he looked weakened, as if he'd just fought a major battle. He seemed to be clutching his staff tightly, just to keep himself up. However, to be in that state and have survived... he must be tough. Amusing...
1572
1573"Who are you?" I asked, trying to keep the tone of amusement out of my voice but failing.
1574
1575"Flare..." he replied in a weak voice. He then pulled out a canteen and took a swig of it. That seemed to give him a bit of extra strength, as he raised his head to look at me.
1576
1577"Now that I've introduced myself, could you please tell me who the hell you are?"
1578
1579I smothered a chuckle. I'd never heard someone use "please" and "hell" in the same sentence, especially like that. I smirked.
1580
1581"The name's Shadow. You look like you've been through hell and back. What the hell happened here?"
1582
1583"Nothing much."
1584
1585I spotted a crater in the ground behind him, as well as several cuts and burn marks and burnt cut marks on the ground in the area. I snorted.

1596
1597'Still... What if this could be an opportunity for a grand adventure? Surely I'll get to fight some tough opponents... But what about that Zanixia chick? What's she doing around here anyway?'

1600
1601"Huh?"
1602
1603"If you can find the guy you're looking for, then come back and meet me here. I'll be in the area, training, most likely. If you've got him or her or whatever with you, I'll join you."

1625The situation was beginning to spin out of my control. I had to set thing straight now.
1626"Well, I won't keep you." I turned. "I wonder if we will cross paths again."
1627Flare and Shadow looked confused.
1628"Huh?"
1629I turned around, sighing.
1630"I will have nothing to do with this pathetic war between the pikmin. And I have no desire to meet the oracle, either."
1631Flare shook his head.
1632"But...but he asked that I bring whoever I met on the mountains back with me!"
1633"And why couldn't he do that himself?" I asked, annoyed,
1634"I wonder if he thinks others should do his dirty work for him? Not all oracles wish to indulge themselves because of who they are and become idle."
1635Flare was about to say something, when I added.
1636"You could say you never met me. Then neither of us will be in trouble."
1637Shadow titled his head to one side.
1638"And how is it that meeting the oracle would bring YOU so much trouble?" he asked.
1639I turned my head away.
1640"Well..because...I..I.."
1641"WAAAAAAHHH!"
1642But I was thankfully intterupted by a peculiar pikmin ruishing through the woods, persued by a breadbug.
1643"What the hell?!" Shadow shouted. I prepared my shurikan.

1690I had never seen so many breadbugs in one place before. I gathered that neither Flare nor Shadow had, either.
1691"Um...that's a lot of breadbugs." Flare said. A shout came out from inside the mass of breadbugs.
1692"HA HA CANT'T FIND ME IN BREADBUG MASS. STUPID FOREVER."
1693Shadow rolled his eye.
1694"How old is this guy? Four?"
1695I was beginning to get annoyed.
1696"I've had enough of this." I growled. I squatted down on the ground, touching the wet ground. Soon a glow of brown energy surrounded me. Flare and Shadow took a step back, looking worried.
1697"ESSENSE STEALER: EARTH!!"
1698I slammed my fist into the ground, the earth sending an enourmous ripple towards the crowd of breadbugs. The energy was growing faster. A huge strip of the earth rose up, sending the breadbugs flying everywhere. A pikmin with a glowing mushroom on his stalk was visible. I spread out my hand, a violet glow surrounding it. The breadbugs and the pikmin suddenly all hung in midair, waving thier legs feebly. I lowered the pikmin to the ground, holding him in the spot. I threw the breadbugs towards the pool ahead, all of them falling with a tremendous splash. An X shape was above my head. I turned and looked at Flare and Shadow, whose faces looked something like this: O.O;;
1699Flare walked slowly up to the mushroom pikmin. Me and Shadow hung back, watching.
1700"Who are you?" he asked him.
1701"I GLOWY!" Glowly yelled.
1702"Uh..hi. Listen. The oracle of Pelphi asked me to bring you back to him. Will you come?"

2018I cast a glance towards Pelphi. The sun was beginning to set, so the glittering walls of the city were based in a sparkly orange glow. I am not particularly fond of this time of day.
2019I turned to Fllare, Glowy and Shadow.
2020"Shall we be moving to Pelphi, then?" I asked, coldly.
2021Flare nodded.
2022"Yes. We should be getting back to the oracle."
2023He walked away towards the faded pathway leading down the slope towards the gates of Pelphi. I put awya both my shurikan and set off too, with Shadow and Glowy following.
2024"So...this oracle." Shadow said to us,
2025"Why do you think he needs us?"
2026I scratched my ear, thinking.
2027"I'm not sure, but I can estimate that he has something more in store for us. I can't think what he wants with you or me, at any rate."
2028Flare drew back a little bit.
2029"I think he wants us to do something for him. It's probably important.
2030I snorted.
2031"How convenient for him."
2032Shadow glanced sideays at me.
2033"Say, Zanixia."
2034I raised my head, breaking away from my thoughts.
2035"Yes?"
2036He was about to ask a question, then shook his head.
2037"It's nothing."
2038I narrowed my eyes a little and said "Mm." but I couldn't help feeling a little suspicious. I wondered if it had something to do with what I said.
2039Flare pointed ahead and called.
2040"Look! There's the gate."
2041
2042*Oh, GM, is it ok if I introduce a new character soon?

2132Oh, here's my new guy:
2133
2134Name : Kuthar
2135Gender: Male
2136Colour: Green
2137Class: Travelling Swordsman.
2138Abilities:
2139Razor wind
2140Gathers energy up and releases it when attacking, so that he has extra elemental power in battle. Can use magic without having to chant and uses it on physical features (claws)
2141Kukessen
2142Secrets a weird sticky substance from his hands, allowing him to climb up walls and form spider webs around opponents. This has a parylsis gel inside so it stuns enemies.
2143Whirlwind rush
2144Summons wind energy and uses it as powerful explosive magic, trapping his enemies in a giant tornado, then uses it to slice at opponents and throw around at over 60mph.
2145Physical description: Wears faded leather pants and torn shirt and a black headband. He carries a sword in a sheath behind him. Instead of a leaf he has a jagged black blade. He has some strange tiger-like black marking on his arms. Has prong on the end of his tail.
2146Short Bio: grew up in a small village which was destroyed when he was a child. He was taught magic by a mysterious mentor. Has an easy-going personality, but is sometimes a bit too laid-back.
2147
2148Can I add this new skill for Zanixia?
2149
2150Venom Dust
2151This is when Zanixia relaeses a powerful poision on in her teeth and claws. She can also realease it in smoke-form from the orb on her stalk. She can't poison herself, but can't usae this ability all the time because it takes a while for her to make the poison in her body.
2152
2153Note: GM, when you've got everyone in the oracle room, please have Zanixia standing in the back and being fairly quiet. Thank you.

2159message detail Oh yeah, if you need this, this is currently a list of skills (out of his possible ones) that he's using:
2160
2161Fury (Well sort of... but it is the basic...)
2162
2163Vortex (Staple skill. Sort of.)
2164
2165D. Combo (Once again, prolly staple, and possible upgrading as the time goes on)
2166
2167Phoenix Flare (Sort of a desperation attack... you've seen it in action)
2168
2169The "breath" skills, Dragonbreath, Inferno and Salamander will probably be modified so that they are conjured out of the staff instead. Its then much simpler to work with...
2170
2171But, for the main party... Due to GM's deity character introducing Kefka, shouldn't we be ambushed or something by his minions? It should effectively be an aid to the plot, also going along with the fact Kefka has branded me with his mark, condemning me to be followed by darkness.

2201
2202After the minorly odd introduction of Glowy, (Ok fine, I admit, Glowy's appearance surprised the crap out of me...) I managed to regain a semblance of authority, and asembled all of those who I had met before me. We were one hell of a motley crew.
2203
2204"Listen, I completely understand that you guys don't want to come with me... I'm only bringing you back because of direct orders given to me by the Oracle... you see, so that I can get on the road to redemptio-"
2205
2206"Look," cut in Shadow, with a half-hearted sigh, "None of us have any idea why the Oracle needs you to bring us back... but because you're under orders from the physical equivalent of a divine being, we have no choice to oblige."
2207
2208Zanixia stood back, and nodded grudgingly, not saying a word, while Glowy bounced around, oblivious to the world, and happily with his head in the clouds.
2209
2210"Well then," I said, slapping my palms together, "we might as well get on our way... night is falling soon, and we have a relatively small journey back down the mountain to Pelphi... so we best hurry before dark."
2211
2212We all began to assemble into a collective single file line, with Glowy dancing around in a madcap fashion, while somehow managing to follow us.
2213
2214Now, it seemed as if the cool and refreshing atmosphere near the waterfall had been lifted, and the air felt... dry, and dead. It was however much colder than earlier... must've have been due to the sun dropping out of view.
2215
2216"It's weird... the sun bakes this place like a kiln during the day, but during the night, the temperature just spikes down... I guess its from a lack of water to contain the heat?"
2217
2218Up from the moutainside, we got a glorious view of the sunset... it illuminated the moutains, coating them like the easel of some long-forgotten god... the colors were simply beautiful. We all stopped to admire the setting forge of Volcanus.
2219
2220"Beautiful... so beautiful," I breathed.
2221
2222"GLOWY LIKE PRETTY COLORS. COLORS LIKE GLOWY. GLOWY THINK THAT COLORS LIKE YOU TOO."
2223
2224I coudn't help but chuckle at that statement... so innocent, and so very honest. I was really going to like Glowy. The other two... personally, I don't trust Black pikmin that well... but they didn't kill me when they could have, so they seemed reliable.
2225
2226The dying sunlight made the shadows dance, wildly, as if alive... I recollected previous events... opening up my gi slightly, I looked down to examine my wound. Physically, there was absolutely no trace... but across the original girth of laceration was a long, black snaking mark... serpentine... sinister. I had remembered what had happened when I had slain that creature. I had been branded.
2227
2228So, as I looked at the shadows more and more, they seemed to dance more and more... becoming even more animate...
2229
2230"No wait... something isn't right..."
2231
2232As the shadows whipped themselves around, now far from the original flickering lines and shapes formed by the delicate rays of light, melding slightly into something... something that looked oddly pikminoid. And out from the ground, all around, black hands reached out, and began to pull themselves out.
2233
2234Zanixia and Shadow must have noticed the disturbance too... they had both assumed defensive stances, carefully observing the emerging foes. I myself grabbed my staff, and readied myself for combat.
2235
2236The first full body emerged... it appeared to be the silhouette of a pikmin... purely black and three-dimensional. It seemed to shift as if its existence was uncertain, like an ink. Its body smooth, its only discerning feature was two glowing eyes... eyes that appeared to stare six inches into my skull.

2245
2246More appeared, and within moments, several had weaved themselves around me, Zanixia and Shadow.
2247
2248Nearby, Glowy happily ambled about, completely ignored by the creatures, Babbling something about fatigue, he crawled into a bush, and curled into a ball.
2249
2250A voice then penetrated our minds.
2251
2252"Ah... what do we have here? One little noble and his band of brave fighters?"
2253
2254I shivered as the voice ran down my spine. It had a malevolent tone... a sweet yet deadly.
2255
2256"I could quite easily kill you if I wanted to... but that's no fun," the being let loose a twisted laugh, making all of us visibly cringe, "I prefer to make my prey suffer... watching them swirm why I have their life within my hands... it a delightful spectacle."
2257
2258"Why are you hunting us?" I asked, quivering, "Why, you sick son of a *****?"
2259
2260"My what a mouth... tut tut... you have not forgotten that mark you have... I have branded you as my personal target... and I will hunt you down, ever so slowly, ever so subtly... until you die..."
2261
2262"And how, can I rid myself of you?" I said, through, gritted teeth.
2263
2264"Well... your first option is, of course, to die... and your second, as unlikely as it seems, would be to slay me. But of course, that would never happen... heheh... good luck my little vigilant... I'll be watching..."
2265
2266And then, the feeling of dread deserted me. The shadow warriors around us still stared with a eerie silence, lifeless eyes mindlessly looking ahead. With a jerk of my head, I roared to the heavens in frustration. I then ran toward the nearest target, lighting my staff with an intense white flame.
2267
2268Raising it over my head, I bisected my foe... effortlessly, with a clear strike diagonally from head down. Floating in air for a few moments, it then disentegrated, oozing into pieces.
2269
2270"Heh... you bastard... do you actually think you can kill me? Is this the best you can send to take me out! I've fought drunkards more potent that your minions!"
2271
2272"No! Flare! Look!" rang out Shadow, getting my attention.
2273
2274Whipping my head up, I immediately discovered that the several shadow warriors had all reappeared around me alone... as the sun was almost dead, the flame of my staff a bright torch in the darkness.
2275
2276From my left came a flash of movement. Ducking, I dodged a swift jab, one with a hand covered in large claws, and brought my staff in a swift uppercut, nailing the creature in the chin. Jumping up, I dodged another block, and kicked another creature in the skull, and heard a sickening crack as it spilled ichor and slumped to the ground. Swinging my staff in a wide arc, I tore through the torsos of multiple creatures, killing off the remainder. Relaxing a bit, I smiled... then heard an odd hissing sound, as if sand was shifting to form a moutain... whipping back, I looked down at my own shadow... and eyes look back at me.
2277
2278A fist came out of the ground and nailed in the face, whipping my head back. I went flying.

2286message detail (Continued from previous post)
2287
2288Note, the shadow creatures are pretty damned strong, and can manipulate their shape, but also lack durability. They make up for this by being able to jump back and forth via shadows... when you destroy it, if all its pieces are not completely destroyed, it will reform itself in a nearby shadow, using elements of darkness as a fuel. Attacks that are light-based or generate light are essentially useless... they spawn shadows, which the creatures can exploit to their advantages. Therefore, for example Flare, by splitting a creature by using a combustion attack, he's creating a large array of shadows for the other shadow creatures to travel to and surround him, and also provide material for the creatures to regenerate off of. They are tenacious, annoying as hell, and take a LONG time to kill. But they are killable.

2349'What the... what ARE these things?' thought Shadow as he watched them swarm over Flare. He shook his head.
2350
2351"Flare can't take them all himself, Zanixia. I don't know about you... but I'm gonna see how these things like ME."
2352
2353He charged at them just as a fist shot up from Flare's own shadow and punched him. Shadow grabbed... the shadow, yanked it from the ground, and slammed it down. The figure immediately split apart. He narrowed his eye. 'That was TOO easy...'
2354
2355He was proved right when the bits jumped into the shadows and came back together. Shadow sweatdropped.
2356
2357"Damnit... Flare, Zanixia! These things can regenerate from the shadows!" he yelled, jumping away and kicking one in the head.
2358
2359"Oh great... so, how do we kill them during the NIGHT?" Zanixia yelled back.
2360
2361"Good question... wish I knew..."
2362
2363'Okay, so they regenerate from shadows... if we can get rid of the shadows, we can get rid of them... but how do we do that during nighttime?'
2364
2365He looked at Glowy, laying down nearby. He made some light, but that didn't stop the shadows. At least they couldn't regenerate near him...
2366
2367Shadow frowned. 'How do you stop shadows from being made? You'd need light all around... That's it!' he though, suddenly struck with realization.
2368
2369"Flare!" he yelled, "Make flames wherever you can to make light! If you can make enough fires to keep all of the shadows gone, then they can't regenerate!"

2509"FINE LEAVES BUSH HAS! GLOWY FIDDLE LEAVES UNTIL BECOME BORED. GLOWY BORED." I crawled out from under the bush to see my fellow friends fighting shadows. Fear tingled my spine. "GLOWY'S FRIENDS..." The black one... the other black one was telling the other two a plan.
2510
2511"Flare!" he yelled, "Make flames wherever you can to make light! If you can make enough fires to keep all of the shadows gone, then they can't regenerate!"
2512
2513"GLOWY LIKE TREES! BURN FOREST BAD!" Before I would explain anything to them, I started dancing madly across the dirt and around them. Luckily, I was doing it fast enough so that there was a minute amount of regenerating going on. "FIGHTERS BE QUICK TO FIGHT BAD THINGIES!" All I had been doing is cutting the ammount we had to fight. "STAY AROUND GLOWY!" I started advancing toward Pelphi, as the other three fought on the inside. I was moving fast, but making sure that everyone was inside my dance. I just hope they can pick up the slack...

2521The shadows were beginning to lose. The flares were driving them back to wherever it is they came from. Glowy was running around like a maniac while Shadow, Me and Flare 'took the rest of them down' as Flare would say.
2522Eventually we reached the city gate, Glowy stopped by it, hopping on the spot, gesturing for us to follow him. I threw my shurikan at a shadow that appearedd in front of me and reached Glowy.
2523"YOU LATE, YOU LATE!" he chanted. I rolled my eyes.
2524"Oh, shut up." I muttered.
2525Shadow and Flare soon reached us, and we ran into the gateway.
2526The city was pretty quiet. Now many people around at all.
2527"Good job, Glowy!" Flare said, slapping Glowy on the back.
2528"Yeah, not bad." Shadow said, smirking.
2529I waited impatiently.
2530"So, Flare...which way to the Oracle's home?"
2531Flare stopped and nodded to the richer looking part of the ctiy.
2532"It's this way. Come on."

2580
2581"I don't see what's so great about this guy..." A feminine voice from farther away, I'd presume near the common passage.
2582
2583She isn't as trained as I would have imagined for one the Gods have decided to use as a tool.
2584
2585I feel a foriegn presence approach my conscious mind. Yes, far weaker. She's never taken on a trained mind which has defenses, has she? Let me test her...
2586
2587"It is not polite to invade the mind of others. Where did you learn your manners?"
2588
2589"I have damn fine manners, if you'd... you stopped my intrusion!
2590
2591"You've never come across a well trained mind, have you? I don't have the ability to look into the minds of others, but I can tell what type of person they are. You, on the other hand, break into one of the most sacred places a person could have. Deepest secrets, confessions, dreams... You must show restraint."
2592
2593"We're the same, Oracle! You see into their future, how is that not an invasion?! Don't deny it, you--"
2594
2595"If nothing else, listen to this: 'It is a great power to have the ability to read minds. It is a greater strength to have that power, and not use it.'
2596
2597Eventually, you know, your teamates are going to find out, it only depends how. I suggest you tell them."
2598
2599"Flare, it is good to see that you have suceeded in your mission..." I cut off with my short arguement with the female. "Redeemed you have been. I hope the extra strength from the offerings helped?"
2600
2601"What's the point of bringing us here!? Zeromus damn it, I could be pillaging now!"
2602
2603"This concerns each of you, and the survival of your race. Especially yours, with that mental Dhade at the head of it... Yes, I know all about Dhade, we've met before... it didn't turn out well for either of us."
2604
2605"GLOWY KNOW ANSWER! DHADE GO SQUEE & BOOM & OMFG TEH PAIN!! WHEN CHAOS' SERVENTS ATTACK PART 1!!! NOW HE FIND THE ...giant." Yes, you realize the peril we're in. But not all of it....
2606
2607"Giant? What? Oracle, what's going on?" Flare's voice.
2608
2609Time for some review of history... "A long time ago, a pikmin race, like gods themselves, existed. They built marvels; destructive and beneficial. They also turned our gods, who in turn, created us. They were the first children of Czaryuu...
2610
2611They were not perfect, there were some who invoked dark and forbidden magicks. Dark Clear...
2612
2613Needless to say, there was a great war, destroying all but the Gods, three Clear & one Dark. These still exist today.
2614
2615One Clear, I'm sad to say, has gone mad, and was banished. Another is in mourning for his creation having not only transformed good gods such as Volcanus or Chaos, but letting the Dark Leader, Zemus, get to the creation, and becoming Zeromus." I pause for a moment, but it is so complicated...
2616
2617"What about the last two? The Clear and the Dark?" Flare asked. Indeed, it is time for him to know...

2671Argh. I knew it was a mistake to come here. I will not be lectured by that puffed-up, pompous brat that is supposed to be an oracle.
2672I turned on my heel and left. Because Flare and the oracle appeared to be in a deep and somewhat stupid conversation, they did not notice I had left. And Glowy wouldn't notice if the sky fell, he's too busy running around everywhere.
2673Why did I even come? I said I was not coming, yet I somehow got 'roped into doing it' anyway..It's not as though they could have forced me to come.
2674I stomped on out of the palace gates.
2675To...'hell' with this city. I thought. My training must be incomplete. I have to go back to the mountains. Nobody there to judge me. Nobody there to see what I have done.

2724She'll be back. Not immediatly, but soon. She is not yet ready for the trial. Damaged and unsure. She must first face her demons. Only then will she be able to survive the task ahead. The prophecy will be fufilled...
2725
2726"What? The dark and clear are together? What do you mean...?" Flare, curious, asks me while the servant of Zeromus & the Ancient One battle eachother in wordplay.
2727
2728"He is correct. In my homeland, there is a great mountain, where the dark and light reside. However, it is not guarded only by my people, but ancient enchantments, older than the one you know as Glowy, more powerful than any person today."
2729
2730"There aren't any mountains in Pink Territory..." How would you know if you disdain us so?
2731
2732"Not our Colony! Our true home... it doesn't exist on this plane." So tired... and so much to explain. "Which is why I asked you to bring back those you met. They each have a use, and were chosen by the gods to do so.
2733
2734The female & Glowy, they are powerful, though the girl untrained, psychics (or telepaths, whatever). They can transport themselves, and another, to my home once we are at the Shrine of Czaryuu over on the Silver Isles. The girl will need some training though...
2735
2736They veteran black was brought for his sheer strength, which we will need. Though his finesse isn't what I would have expected. He'll improve.
2737
2738Glowy is also coming for grand healing, before his toxiced body destroys itself internally. He'll still be his form, but not about to drop dead, as many of his age do.
2739
2740You are coming for several reasons, one of the most important being your disdain."
2741
2742A few moments of silence from Flare, "You said 'we'. Surely you aren't coming?"
2743
2744Wonderful boy, he's learned to go above hearing... he listens now. "Yes, I am coming. I need to enact the portal, as well as finish a potion I was creating, a rare ingredient that is only found near my old home." It is true, the ingredient, Silver-Dust, is only found there. It can be used for all sorts of things, including a potent, undetectable poison, but, very few can handle it like that.
2745
2746"But... Zanixia left... and why was I chosen? Why should I go? What if I refuse?"
2747
2748Self doubt and sudden awareness. I saw it in Pikminles too. I smile at the memory, "The Gods are not always clear in such times. Why? Is it not enough to be chosen by the gods? Well, I suppose you would wish to save your kingdom from the oppression of the Black Fiefdom? You can refuse, I have no power to stop you."
2749
2750"What about Zanixia? How will she be found?" More questions? Teehee, self doubt never helped anyone, but sometimes it is necessary.
2751
2752Choice of the fates: "You can go after her, or not. She will experience some difficulty. Open your heart, and you will see."
2753

2755

2777
2778^|Zanixia|^
2779I have been homing my skills up in the mountains now for about two hours. I am not optimistic enough to believe I gave gotten any better, but improving my technique is something I must train for. Things in life don't come easy.
2780As I was about to aim my Shurikan to split a particularly difficult target I had set up, it occured to me that it was time for me to give an offering to Nemesis and Diana. It has been a month, and so far I feel they have been waiting patiently.
2781I headed out to find a suitable offering. Eventually I came across two large bulborbs, who were grazing. I smirked and threw both Shurikan, slicing them to pieces. Now I needed to set up an alter.
2782But just as I had done and was about to sacrifice the meat, I heard someone behind me.
2783I leapt towards the noise, my Shurikan dangling at the throat of the intruder.
2784"Hey! WHOA!"
2785It was an unknown green pikmin. I stepped off him.
2786"Do not get in my way." I told him, walking back to the alter. He rubbed the back of his neck.
2787"Sheesh. You scared the hell out of me!"
2788I ignored him, but he seemed to be under the impression I wasn't.
2789"What are you doing?" he asked, leaning against the trunk of a tree. I felt a ripple of anger. His attitude was annoying me.
2790"Setting up an Alter." I replied, shifting the straw.
2791He snorted. I felt another ripple of anger.
2792"Don't tell me someone so serious believes in the Gods." he said. I wasn't sure if this was a question.
2793"Who are you?" he asked me when I did not respond.
2794"Give me your name and I'll give you mine." I answered, placing the meat in a pile.
2795"The name's Kuthar." he said, offering his hand. I wasn't sure what I was supposed to do with it, so instead I waved it away.
2796"And I..am Zanixia." I replied, Diana...Nemesis... I thought as I lit them. Accept this offering.
2797"What are you doing up here, anyway?" he asked, picking at a chipped nail on his finger.
2798"Training." I answered curtly, making sure everythig on the alter was perfect.
2799"But I doubt that's what you are doing. what do you want?" I said, glaring at him.
2800He shrugged, and I felt even more infuriated.
2801"I came up here to check stuff out. Score some chicks, whatever."
2802I frowned. I had heard that expression before.
2803"There will be no...'Scoring of the chicks' up here." I said, trying to phrase it right. "I am the only person up here and I find you quite annoying. Go away."
2804I held up a shurikan.
2805"Unless I have to make you."
2806His infuriating nonchalent attitude vanished at once. He backed away, looking quite frightened. I felt a ripple of satisafaction, and pulled up my other shurikan.
2807"Jeez! Lighten up!" he said, tripping over himself in his haste to get away. Help! She's a total PSYCHO!! I got a flash of his thoughts. I tried to ignore it.
2808"Don't take it so seriously."
2809I aimed one shurikan, the blade glinting dangerously.
2810"I'll give you three seconds."
2811Kythar ran. Nemesis, did he!

2835I stepped out of the shadows, and saw an expression of sheer annoyance and disgust on Zanixia's face.
2836
2837"Why are you here?"
2838
2839"Obviously," I said, "to get you back... you just stormed off."
2840
2841"Well," she said, a bit spitefully, "its not like I ever wanted you to drag me along regardless... spare me if your dear Oracle wishes for you to chain me once again."
2842

2857What a complete idiot.
2858I thought, annoyed. What was the point of him coming up here if he knew I wasn't coming back anyway?
2859I punched a nearby tree my irratation, which splintered.
2860I wondered by away near the stream, and back the sharpened the blades of my shurikan on a rock. I starting thinking about the city I had been intending to go to. But for some reason, I still felt annoyed that Flare had suddenly become the Oracle's little messenger boy, or that he expected me to come running back after being insulted.
2861I sighed, and began to make my way up towards the west side of the mountain, were the last dregs of sunlight were slipping away.

2897It had been a day since Shadow humiliated me. Since then, he seems to have disappeared. Good riddance, I say. I stormed angrily past the dojo, the wall still damaged but being repaired. Next time I fight that loser, I'm gonna bring that building down on top of him...
2898
2899Walking farther into the forest, I was surprised as a Green Pikmin suddenly ran past me, shouting something that sounded like "SHE'S GONNA KILL ME!"
2900
2901I watched him pass, surpressing a smirk. I was tempted to blow him up. That might cheer me up a bit. However, he was soon too far out of range for me to do so. I turned and went in the direction he'd come from.
2902
2903He seemed to have come quite a distance... I found the end of his trail, and looked about. There were scars in the trees, probably from a sharp weapon. I looked around. What had spooked that idiot so much?
2904
2905"*Sigh* Whatever. This looks like as good a place as any to meditate..."
2906
2907I sat down, got into a meditative position, and cleared my mind.
2908
2909In my mind's eye, I saw that irritating Shadow. I shrugged it off. I wasn't gonna let him spoil my meditating. I wasn't preapred for what came next.
2910
2911He turned toward me. His left eye, beyond all reason, was perfectly fine. He also wasn't wearing his armor, and had no scars. I wondered why.
2912
2913The rest was just glimpses. Shadow fighting against something, looking as if he was trying to protect something. The figure he was fighting, wielding a rather large sword, then it moving very quickly... too fast for Shadow. Shadow on the ground, bleeding, his left eye slashed as I knew it to be, and looking as if he was screaming, reaching out toward something.
2914
2915Then it jumped to a different place. Shadow, decked out in his armor, glowing red and bulked up, again facing the being with the large sword. This time, they seemed to be evenly matched. It was then just glimpses of them striking at each other, and then I woke up.
2916
2917I opened my eyes. I was covered with sweat. It was now dark out... How long have I been sitting here?

2931It was all so peaceful. The leaves strewn across the ground. The flowers bursting out of the soil. The water flowing gently through its own eroded path.
2932
2933But that was quickly turned into a living hell.
2934
2935A strange, rolling creature had come. At first, I heard and felt the rumbling. Then Bulborbs, Pikmin, and all kinds of bugs were running through the forest. Then the rhythmatic rumbling. It would occasionally stop, then an even harder thump. It stopped, and shrieks were held, then died off quickly. Then the tree... it slowly started shaking, then with a very violent thump, it came crashing down to the leave-strewn floor of Wist*ful Wild. The Crawbster had come.
2936
2937It slowly crawled around with its humungous left arm. It stopped in front of some Figworts, and smashed them to a garbled mess of leaves and petals. Rage filled me. I remained inanimate. Expressing rage only does harm. It turned to face me. For a second, it questioned my existance. I stretched my arms. It instantly knew, and shrieked a warcry. It smashed its large arm into a tree and rolled up into a ball. It slowly started rolling at me. My acts to come were not driven by rage for my fallen flowers, but for stopping anymore harm this Crawbster could do.
2938
2939It gained speed, and I prepared. My arms were in front of me. The Crawbster was near when I stopped him with my bare hands. He was slowly rolling forward, determined to smash me into a bloody pile. I then rolled out of the way, and he went forward. He stopped, and unrolled himself. He smashed his arm into the ground. It sent dirt into the air.
2940
2941I sighed. "May the Gods forgive your passively violent behavior." He shrieked in anger. I assumed stance, but he brang his arm on top of me and knocked me through my flower gardens and into a tree. The pain was great. The Crawbster was a force to be reckoned with. But I must make sure this overly violent crustecean murders no more. It started rolling once more. Right when he was about to connect, I rolled out of the way. He connected to the tree and was slammed backward onto his back. He yelped and tried to get up. I brang up my arms and started pounding away as hard as I could at his glowing belly. He screamed as I pounded away at his soft underside. He got back up, and hit me back away. He started to crawl back to where he came from. However, my punishment was not over. I swiftly grabbed his tail, and he started screaming and pounding at the ground. I slowly dragged him around and around in circles. He slowly gained momentum as I kept spinning and spinning, and he was off the ground. He was at a fast momentum now. I quickly let go, and he went sailing through the sky, never to bother Wist*ful Wild again.
2942

2944
2945Who wants to be smashed by a Segmented Crawbster? biggrin.gif If it falls toward Flare's group, have it fall RIGHT over Glowy's head. And then have it rolling away. Or it could land near Black Art.

2989message detail Name: Clade
2990Color: Green
2991Class: Warrior (Spear and lance user)
2992Abilities:
2993
2994Void Shot: Although one of his weapons is the sling, he can do very, very lethal with it. Using what little magical power he possesses, as he swings his sling around, he can violently accelerate its speed. And as we know, a sling is a very dangerous weapon on its own, especially considering Clade's considerable skill with it. And when the sling is at roughly 7 times its normal speed...
2995
2996Skewer: From his lance-wielding stance, he crouches, points his lance at his foe, and launches himself at the foe with nearly immeasurable speed. If his weapon does not contact with the enemy, assuming they are even able to dodge at all, he will continue skidding ahead on a straight trajectory, leaving quite a bit of dust in his wake (This serves as a sort of useful, and lethal, hit-and-run maneuver, and helps when he is moving from enemy to enemy). However, if the foe cannot dodge... Well, what do you expect? They're receiving a faceful of spear-with-many-blades-attached being rammed in their face at the speed of sound.
2997
2998(Additional note: When in the air, he can perform this maneuver instantaneously, and if he smashes into the ground while on trajectory, he can perform a normal Skewer attack instantly, as well. Although, the aerial Skewer is quite unstable...)
2999
3000
3001Physical Description: A lithe-looking green pikmin, is what first comes to mind. Otherwise, nothing truly special is notable about him: average wings, average scales, average stalk, head, arm... etc. He wears an ebony breast plate, with ebony shoulder pads to with it. Blackened bracers and greaves are equipped onto his forearms and calves, and a belt is wrapped around his waist rather clumsily, being slightly slanted. On his belt, sits his favorite under-dog-like-ish weapon, the sling, along with many small, but considerably heavy, iron balls, as ammo for his sling. Also at his waist is a scabbard, which hold a simple, sturdy, and very sharp rapier, which serves as emergency should his main weapon fail him.
3002
3003And speaking of main weapon: Various straps are attached to Clade's back, serving to hold Clade's treasured spear. The spear itself as a very, very lethal-looking point: very long, thick enough to do considerable damage, and pointy. 4 blades are at the base of the spear-point, giving the weapon some potential as a bashing weapon. The spear is colored forest green, the handle, blade, point and all, and some sections of the spear's handle is covered in highly frictional material, serving to give extra grip.
3004
3005Short Bio: A warrior. One enlisted in the ranks of the green army. To fight on behalf of his people's honor.
3006
3007Of course, it had to change.
3008
3009Clade, along with the unit he was assigned to, was given to task to investigate disturbances. Unfortunately, a terrifying incident occurred, and he barely escaped with his life. He fled to the closest city for shelter, which happened to be Pelphi (Delphi...?). Even now, he lays in the house of an old, aged priest, recovering...

3040
3041Name: Mathias
3042Color: Pink
3043Class: Priest
3044Abilities:
3045
3046Divine: Simply put, Mathias summons many, many powerful beams and spheres of light down from the sky, and directs them all to strike one area at once. It is easily avoidable if one is fast enough. Oddly enough, despite the fact that this spell is only used for self-defense in the most dire of situations, and priests are not even made to fight in the first place, Mathias can cast this spell many times without tiring, and can even cast one Divine attack after another at an impressive speed.
3047
3048Blessing (Passive): Those who are near enough to Mathias will steadily restore lost vitality and energy over time (But it won't heal wounds, just energy and strength).
3049
3050Heal: Need I explain?
3051
3052Fortify: Temporarily boosts the physical and mental (Meaning magic) capabilities of the one who is administered with this spell. How powerful the boost, how long until the effect wears off - all depend on how much power is put into the spell. Unfortunately, it takes a lot of power to boost one's abilities just slightly, and it takes an absolutely tremendous amount of power to boost one's capabilities considerably, to the point where Mathias will lose consciousness.
3053
3054Phsyical Description: Nothing more than an old, aged priest: His complexion is wrinkled, and he has large bags under his eyes. His stare constantly retains his tired look, regardless of whether he is wide awake with coffee in hand, or fatigued. Additionally, and as expected for one as old as Mathias, he is frail and weak. But despite his frailness, he holds a proud, straightbackedlol stance.
3055
3056Short Bio: Nothing more than a simple priest that healed the wounds and minds of many over the course of his life. His skill with the Divine spell, according to what people say, was naturally acquired. His skill was first shown when a group of 4 or so black pikmin attacked Mathias when he was travelling back to Pelphi (Delphi?), with a wounded one travelling with him. Mathias was forced to protect himself and his companion, so he, according to said companion, quickly disposed of the group with multiple Divine spells cast in almost blindingly-quick succession.
3057
3058But other than this, Mathias has never had to resort to any kind of self defense or fighting his entire life. All his life, he has done nothing but serve and heal, but there is one event in his life that eternally refuses to bring up...

3067I gave a little shudder of disgust as the last of my potion slipped down my throat. It tastes fine on its own, but the powder makes it most unsavoury. I dislike the bitterness.
3068I had been practising some hand-to-hand combat, because I can't rely on the Nochi (shurikan) all the time. I have enough suffiant techniques to live fine without them, but I enjoy practicing with different weapons in case the oppertunity arises. Now I was quite tired,but I still had something to do.
3069I had fetched a large ball of hay fromthe abandoned nest of a snagret, and now I had set up a very small shrine. I knelt in front of it, and lit the candle. Then picked up one of my shurikan and jabbed my finger with one of the shiny silver blades. A drop of blood landed in a bowl of water I had set up in front of the shrine. I watched with mild interest as the blood spread across the water, a faint wispy red trace inside. I then shut my eyes, and felt myself detatch into deep thought.
3070Nemesis...Diana...Can you hear me?
3071I felt my breathing become faster.
3072I have not asked you of much. I don't want to have to ask you of anything. But this..please...take my powers. I-I have not used them correctly, I don't know how..I can't...I can't do this, whatever the reason you gave them to me. What is it you want me to do? I can't use my powers. I don't want to be an Oracle. I knew this, but there's nothing I can do. I can't be one...not after what...happened. Not now. Are you sure it's me you want? What is it that I have to do to please you and get rid of my power? I hate it...please...help me. I'm confused. I can't be an Oracle...not after that night.
3073It was too much. I felt dizzy and light-headed.
3074Then I passed out.

3165Funny. I've been away from home for at least a year. If I left Delphi (OOC: Pelphi? >.<;;; ) as soon as I had recovered, I would've been home in just 2 months. But the old geezer, Mathias, had somehow convinced me to stay in the city and find any work I could, so that not only could I make some considerable profit to support my family back home, but so that I could assist in supporting the elder one. I still wonder why I even agreed to such a thing, especially if the city I was also agreeing to stay in for a while had vastly different religious beliefs than me. But after I agreed, I found I could not let Mathias try to live on his own. Yes, he was a priest, but he was very poor, and very old, and the religious community here didn't exactly support him. So I helped, although reluctantly. There was a part of me that said just to ditch the old man, but the other side of me, the humble, honorable side, said it would be unforgivably cruel to abandon the old pikmin, and that the foul deed would haunt me for the rest of my life.
3166
3167Besides, I owe the priest one for saving my life. After that frightening - no, frightening is a severe understatement - horrifying incident, Mathias had found me, dying in a huge clump of bloodied thickets and underbrush. Needless to say, he saved my life, and I was indebted to him. So I figured that this was a way to say thanks.
3168
3169But still, there will be trouble once I get home. Results of the assignment going unreported, why there was no one to report back after one year, what the heck happened... It'll be a hassle for me.
3170
3171Pah. I still think I should've left the old pikmin behind. But then again, I am coming home with a sack full of money.

3188I sat groggily upright. I supposed I had been unconscious for a while, and I felt awful.
3189Was that a dream just now? I wondered.
3190I felt dizzy just thinking about it. I felt physically sick from the vision, and from the potion.
3191I stood up, and ran over to a bush and vomited nosily into it.
3192I wiped the remainder off my mouth in disgust. The atmosphere and smell in the air was still making me nauseous.
3193I sat up and moved off through the bushes, feeling dizzy but annoyed.

3238As I got up to leave a sudden explosion caught my attention. I turned around... only to see a rather angry looking Segmented Crawbster.
3239
3240I frowned. I didn't have time for this...
3241
3242It raised it's claw to crush me. I pointed a finger at it an muttered "Jierda," before realising that that was a mistake. But it was too late; a bolt of purple energy lanced out and hit the crawbster's claw.
3243
3244A loud, sickening CRACK reverberated throughout the forest. The Crawbster backed up and lowered it's cracked claw, then pulled the claw back a bit.
3245
3246The muscle separated from the shell.
3247
3248The Crawbster issued a cry of pain and slowly pushed the claw back into the shell.
3249
3250I felt a little bad for it. I'd only meant to stop it from attacking me, but had forgotten that crawbsters don't have skeletons on the inside... I'd instead broken the shell. I deliberated over it for a few seconds, then sighed and walked over to the Crawbster's claw.
3251
3252"Waise heill," I muttered. A glow came over my hands, and I moved them around the crack in the claw, watching as it sealed. I sighed, turn around, and picked up my huthvir. I'm becoming too soft...
3253
3254As I walked away, there was a sudden thumping. I turned around...
3255
3256There was the Crawbster.
3257
3258I raised an eyebrow at it, then turned, shrugged, and continued walking. Another thump. It was still behind me.
3259
3260"Why are you following me?"
3261
3262It looked quizically at me. Obviously, it couldn't respond. I decided to test something. I took three steps forward. It, being considerably bigger than me, only had to move it's claw forward once and drag itself ahead. My eyes widened.
3263
3264"Holy crap..."
3265
3266I'd done something considered impossible. I'd tamed a Crawbster. I smirked.
3267
3268"This... could prove interesting."
3269
3270I continued back toward home, the Crawbster following the whole way.

3305I pried my eyelids open slowly. I felt dazed, as if a sack of bricks had been launched at my face. I was disoriented.
3306
3307First of all, what the hell did I just dream about? Secondly, what was it all about? Thirdly, what on earth am I doing lying face down on the ground, right in front of the gates of Pelphi?
3308
3309Wait a sec... Pelphi?
3310
3311My mind snapped back to normal functionality immediately. What the hell am I doing back here? I pushed myself off the cobblestone pathway, and looked around, rather panicking. This was Pelphi alright, but how...?
3312
3313"To the temple, little one."
3314
3315"AAH!!"
3316
3317I reached for my spear, which was tied at my back, and brandished it rather clumsily in a random direction, trying to locate the source of the almost-ethereal voice.
3318
3319Left. Nothing. Right. Nothing. Behind. Nothing.
3320
3321Up?
3322
3323Still nothing, but I did notice that it was night now.
3324
3325I lowered my spear, and glanced around me suspiciously, still rather uneasy. What the hell was going on? Temple? They, whoever "they" is, wanted me to back to the temple?
3326
3327Hell no. I'm done with this city, thanks to Mathias. I doubt I'll ever take a step within its walls ever again.
3328
3329But then again, that stupid... voice. I don't want to put up with it any longer. I hate anything cryptic or "mysterious." They're almost always not worth dealing. Whether it be a murder or a church saying. You might as well just carry on, keeping with you only your own beliefs and morales and keeping precious memories of the past with you, serving as reminder, motivation, or comfort to you.
3330
3331I strapped my spear to my back. As much as I loathe to tread in this city once more, it's better than dealing with that voice.

3412
3413Colour: Green Pikmin
3414
3415Class: Envoy Shifter (Can 'shift' towards various animal forms, and is the current 'envoy'. Spokesperson for Fauna and Flora(Green Pikmin) )
3416Abilities: Rune can shift to be more like a certain animal. He sees it, he can be it. The better he knows the animal, the better the shift, and the more he gains from it.
3417
3418Physical Description: Four limbed kinda-dark green pikmin with tail. 'Only' a leaf.
3419
3420Short Bio: Born without the normal draconic(I'm told Greens are draconic...) traits of his kind, he was always looked down upon as inferior. He had a fascination for animals, and after many years of observing birds, wolves and cats, he began to feel more of an affinity for them. It wasn't until his life was threatened that he learned of his unique ability. Discovering that he had this talent, he became an envoy between the two species. He is both Flora and Fauna, and so he is neither. Though he generally lives with the Greens, he also will spend time with the animals that he is one with.

3428Asking directions, he was stared at constantly. He attempted to please himself by saying it was because they were surprised by the fact that he didn't know where their precious oracle was, or by the fact that a Green would never accept a god, not because of his unique appearance.

3444After all of the time I had spent in Pelphi, I was still rather unsettled by all the stares I occasionally received. After all, especially in a city where religion constantly revolves around higher-being- and deity-worship, a green pikmin strolling casually through the city's packed cobblestone streets is a fairly odd sight.
3445
3446I decided to cut through the market-place so I could get to the temple quicker. I wanted to get out of here - and fast. I was becoming more and more cranky with every minute I spent in this damn city again, and, added to the time I spent with Mathias, I was highly fed up with this place. I hastened my pace, not stopping to say "sorry" or "excuse me" as I shoved my way through the huge, bustling crowd.
3447
3448Eventually, the huge, pristine white staircase leading to the temple came into view. The grand, marble structure stood looming somewhat-menacingly above me, throwing off a rather uninviting feel. Which is rather odd, because it's supposed to be a holy place.
3449
3450Then again, maybe it's just me, being a green and all.
3451
3452I ascended the staircase, one marble step at a time. The staircase was huge, yes, but the ascent seemed to take unusually long...

3479The Bulbmin had lead him to a room of peace.
3480
3481This was interesting enough. It seemed as if he would have plenty of time to consider how to address the oracle. The Fauna had sent him; he had not argued. The solemnity of their command had frightened him. The Fauna did not believe in any gods or spirits. They, along with himself, did believe in a higher power. One that had simply started a chain reaction causing all events.
3482
3483The Beasts had sent him on a 'simple' request. They told him to seek the one who saw all but what was before him. He had since learned this was "the" Oracle. He had then been told to pledge the animals to the destruction of destruction.
3484
3485He did not understand what had been meant at the time, but he had not questioned the request. After preforming brief bits of research as he traveled, he had learned of the different patron gods, even seeing their effects. It was mind numbing, and the idea of such powers frightened him. He had begun to assume that what the Fauna had meant was the destruction of such destructive activities.
3486
3487As a Fauna not Fauna, Flora not Flora, he would be given some leeway in having to follow through himself if he did not like what was happening. Being the unique being he was, he could always escape into seclusion, and no-one would question it.
3488
3489He could only wait to see what would be the outcome of all the events.
3490
3491"Ah... you certainly are unique." Said a voice.

3564message detail Name: Rune
3565
3566Colour: Green Pikmin
3567
3568Class: Envoy Shifter (Can 'shift' towards various animal forms, and is the current 'envoy'. Spokesperson for Fauna and Flora(Green Pikmin) )
3569Abilities: Rune can shift to be more like a certain animal. He sees it, he can be it. The better he knows the animal, the better the shift, and the more he gains from it.
3570
3571Physical Description: Four limbed kinda-dark green pikmin with tail. 'Only' a leaf.
3572
3573Short Bio: Born without the normal draconic(I'm told Greens are draconic...) traits of his kind, he was always looked down upon as inferior. He had a fascination for animals, and after many years of observing birds, wolves and cats, he began to feel more of an affinity for them. It wasn't until his life was threatened that he learned of his unique ability. Discovering that he had this talent, he became an envoy between the two species. He is both Flora and Fauna, and so he is neither. Though he generally lives with the Greens, he also will spend time with the animals that he is one with.

3579message detail Rune wandered through the town aimlessly. He was new to it, and was looking for the temple of the oracle he had heard so much about. Coming across what he assumed it to be, he began to attempt to enter, only to discover he was in the wrong place.
3580
3581Asking directions, he was stared at constantly. He attempted to please himself by saying it was because they were surprised by the fact that he didn't know where their precious oracle was, or by the fact that a Green would never accept a god, not because of his unique appearance.
3582
3583Finally coming across the temple, he ran across a bulbmin. Looking at him, it leaped back in surprise.
3584
3585"The Green now seek guidance? Are you here to make sacrifice? Repent? Truly, we have entered new times!"
3586
3587Rune laughed. He believed in higher powers. Just not gods.

3597After all of the time I had spent in Pelphi, I was still rather unsettled by all the stares I occasionally received. After all, especially in a city where religion constantly revolves around higher-being- and deity-worship, a green pikmin strolling casually through the city's packed cobblestone streets is a fairly odd sight.
3598
3599I decided to cut through the market-place so I could get to the temple quicker. I wanted to get out of here - and fast. I was becoming more and more cranky with every minute I spent in this damn city again, and, added to the time I spent with Mathias, I was highly fed up with this place. I hastened my pace, not stopping to say "sorry" or "excuse me" as I shoved my way through the huge, bustling crowd.
3600
3601Eventually, the huge, pristine white staircase leading to the temple came into view. The grand, marble structure stood looming somewhat-menacingly above me, throwing off a rather uninviting feel. Which is rather odd, because it's supposed to be a holy place.
3602
3603Then again, maybe it's just me, being a green and all.
3604
3605I ascended the staircase, one marble step at a time. The staircase was huge, yes, but the ascent seemed to take unusually long...

3619"Oracle! There are two green pikmin at the Temple!" One of the bulbmin tell me, "One wishes to see you, the other just walked in. What do we do?"
3620
3621I smile, "It is the will of the gods, have faith. This is important, and all will be revealed soon." I move my head, "Go save the Black Pikmin, he's suffered long enough. And have someone take the rest of the sugar from Glowy..."
3622
3623Zanixia, I'm guessing, looks at me, "How do you trust so easiliy? Everyone isn't good. Many are evil. If you're so open, you're bound to get hurt..."

3632The Bulbmin had lead him to a room of peace.
3633
3634This was interesting enough. It seemed as if he would have plenty of time to consider how to address the oracle. The Fauna had sent him; he had not argued. The solemnity of their command had frightened him. The Fauna did not believe in any gods or spirits. They, along with himself, did believe in a higher power. One that had simply started a chain reaction causing all events.
3635
3636The Beasts had sent him on a 'simple' request. They told him to seek the one who saw all but what was before him. He had since learned this was "the" Oracle. He had then been told to pledge the animals to the destruction of destruction.
3637
3638He did not understand what had been meant at the time, but he had not questioned the request. After preforming brief bits of research as he traveled, he had learned of the different patron gods, even seeing their effects. It was mind numbing, and the idea of such powers frightened him. He had begun to assume that what the Fauna had meant was the destruction of such destructive activities.
3639
3640As a Fauna not Fauna, Flora not Flora, he would be given some leeway in having to follow through himself if he did not like what was happening. Being the unique being he was, he could always escape into seclusion, and no-one would question it.
3641
3642He could only wait to see what would be the outcome of all the events.
3643
3644"Ah... you certainly are unique." Said a voice.
3645
3646Looking over, Rune saw a Pink pikmin coming his way.
3647The Oracle.
3648
3649"I apologize, but I am unversed in the honorifics you are no doubt accustomed too."

3666I felt a surge of annoyance go through me as the Oracle waffled about understanding again. It makes me so angry, because it sounds to patronising. I feel like hitting something.
3667I wondered around the temple, not bothering to listen to whatever audience the Oracle was having with whoever it was.
3668I walked past a room anbd saw Shadow, who looked distinctly...frazzled.
3669"Shadow, what is wrong?"

3680The Blacks will be on the war path... Zeromus awakening?
3681
3682I'd heard nothing of Zeromus ever awakening before, and knew not why the Black Pikmin held such deep hatred of the Bulbmin... but now I knew. The Bulbmin had stopped our proud race last time Zeromus awakened. However, with all of the opposing races armies weakened, there would be nothing to stop Zeromus and the Black Pikmin this time... nothing would stand between us and total victory! But...
3683
3684I looked again at the mark on my hand. I'd been branded a traitor... and the mark had come when my hand was set aflame by that stupid mushroom! I growled in anger.
3685
3686"This mark... it says I am a traitor..." I said, slowly. I pointed angrily at Glowy. "AND IT IS YOUR FAULT IT APPEARED! Black Art may have decided to tell Dhade that I was a traitor... but he'd never believe it without proof! Now, thanks to you, I have this stupid mark, which blatantly marks me a traitor! You BASTARD! I'LL KILL YOU!" I screamed, launching myself at the damn fungus.
3687
3688Before I could reach him, though, Flare blocked my way, holding me off with his staff. However, that wasn't going to last long. As my anger and rage built, my power built as well, and I started to bulk up. Flare may have been strong, but he was nowhere near strong enough to hold ME off when I built up my Rage. I lifted my tail up and stabbed at him, but he moved his head away as it passed. I continued this, getting madder every time I missed. By now, I'd bulked up considerably and was starting to push Flare backwards. I raised my tail up to skewer him from above...
3689
3690But before I could, I was tackled from the side by the Green Pikmin.
3691
3692"GOGOGO GREEN! GREEN DUDE GREEN DUDE, HE OUR MAN, HE CAN'T DO IT, NO ONE CAN!" screeched Glowy, sounding like a complete idiot.
3693
3694"SHUT UP YOU GOD DAMN FUNGUS!"
3695
3696"YOU STOOPIT! GLOWY NOT LISTEN TO STOOPIT!"
3697
3698I socked the Green on in the gut and dashed at Glowy again, but this time, and rather large number of Bulbmin blocked my path. I skidded to a halt. Even I couldn't take a group of 15 Bulbmin... I dashed to the side of the room, grabbing my gauntlets along the way and slipping them on, making sure to cover the mark, and plowed through the wall, winding up in an alleyway. I rushed out, running on all fours like an animal, and left the city, heading back to my home...

3751message detail One guardian coming right up.
3752
3753Name: Typheim
3754Color: Pink
3755Class: Guardian
3756Abilities:
3757
3758Immunity: This ability alone makes Typheim very powerful. From his blessing received from the Gods, there is no mortal-cast spell that can so much as effect him.
3759
3760Fissure: This speaks for itself.
3761
3762Trigger: Power of this attack is determined by the physical and mental tension within Typheim. It is basically a sphere of light that forms around Typheim, and expands with stunning speed, plowing through/destroying/damaging all it slams through. Power is dependant. Used as a last resort attack.
3763
3764Lightning Tornado: First, all foes are drawn in by a small tornado, formed from Typheim spinning his butterfly sword at an impressive speed. Using the momentum from the twirl, the sword's powerful lightning abilities, as well as his own strength, Typheim swiftly strikes the ground, creating a small burst that sends all who are drawn in upwards. Keeping the momentum of his sword constant, he leaps straight up into the air, twirling his sword even faster, whilst spinning in the same direction as his sword, making the twin blades move at blinding speed. The electrical properties of the sword also cause electrical discharges and currents all around Typheim, so a cyclone of lightning forms as a result, shocking all the living hell out of those who are caught in this deadly attack. (Just think of this as an uber fast lightning version of Light Spear (Kratos' and Zelos' attack).
3765
3766Shock: Typheim simply sends a blast of lightning at the foe, by firing and directing it with his sword. Although, when considering that said sword is a butterfly sword, and that everytime he swings, he can send forward a blast, and that he can twirl the sword really fast...
3767
3768Physical Description: Definitely not your average pink pikmin. At all. He is quite bulky and big, as big as a purple pikmin. A brilliant blue orb rests atop one stem, a purple orb atop the other. He has a tail, and various, painful-looking bronze spikes line it. Typheim's eyes are white, with black slits for pupils.
3769
3770His weapon his a very big butterfly sword (Or swallow blade, if you people don't know your weapons. Especially the people who actually think that the swallow blade is what it's really called). Little nodes are embedded in the both, navy blue blades, giving the butterfly sword electrical properties.
3771
3772Short Bio: First thought to be an abomination among the pink pikmin, for instead of being suited for healing, he was a warrior. He was outcast for many years, until later it was revealed that he was to be one of the guardians of Mt. Ordeals. He was dubbed 'Typheim,' and received blessings from the gods and lesser gods. He was then sent to Mt Ordeals along with another, destined to guard it until his life's end.
3773
3774
3775
3776Before anyone says anything, Typheim is the Guardian of Mt. Ordeals, a very, very sacred place where obviously no God wants an ordinary mortal to take step. Of course he's gotta be powerful.

3995I was to engage in a conversation with Tauran and the red one for a brief moment, before an ear-piercing shriek startled everyone within the vicinity.
3996
3997"WAAAATTEEEEEEEERRR BEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRNNZZZZZZZZZZZ -"
3998
3999Yep, it was Glowy. Apparently, he does not seem to like water.
4000
4001Then, the shrieking sound suddenly seemed to morph into a monstrous roar. Many people watched in awe as Glowy's glowcap began to glow a fiery red, as barely-decipherable words rang out, in the same, terrible roar.
4002
4003"The Dragon breaks the temple wall
4004The flood will drown our Gods
4005Break down the wall
4006And let another kingdom rise
4007The castle of Ordealium
4008Is shaking by the storm
4009The King lost his crown
4010And now the wall is tumbling down"
4011
4012With that, Glowy regained his normal, blue glow, and resumed his shrieking from the water.
4013
4014Me, Flare, and everyone else could only stare in shock at the sudden change Glowy took on, along with what he said. I doubted many could discover the meaning behind what he said (As usual), let alone understand what he said.
4015
4016But out of the corner of my eye, I noticed Talis looking very troubled...

4074Finally. We're getting out of this stupid temple. For the past few days, we've been doing absolutely nothing. Nothing but standing around, talking of saving the world, talking of personal life, talking of the enigma that is Glowy, talking of when the hell is Shadow-or-whoever is going to return... among other things.
4075
4076We're going to the port-town of Mithrilis. I remember going there once. A nice, quaint little town. It was really pleasant there, like many port-cities I've been to. But this one... had a special quality to it, something that made it unique, something that I couldn't describe.
4077
4078But back to the original point. Lovely place, really.
4079
4080Talis is coming with us. Flare, Rune, the Mage fellow, the Ninja girl... whatsername again? Eh.
4081
4082For the past few days, I opted to acquaint myself with a few of the other guests here. Mainly Flare and the green one, Rune. I guess it's because they are practically the only people in the temple that aren't all preachy and crazy about religion. We talked about any subject that came to mind (That wasn't religion): current events, family, some personal matters (Nothing too personal, obviously), saving the world, and even politics (Which Rune originally brought up - I promptly slapped him afterward). I guess I made a few friends.
4083
4084But still, we're finally leaving this stupid temple.
4085
4086Yeeessssssssssssss...
4087
4088I fought hard to stop myself from thrusting my fist into the air and doing a little dance when this announcement was made. Could you blame me?
4089
4090I was growing to despise this place. Mainly because of the bulbmin. Actually, it was just because of the bulbmin. All day, it seemed that they did absolutely nothing but scurry around the temple doing 'religious things.' Which translates running up to every single guest in the temple (Namely, me) at every given opportunity and going into long, drawn-out, and over dramatic religious lectures, talking about this god and that religion and this ritual and that pagan.
4091
4092They seem to have forgotten that I am a green pikmin.

4109"Beware of the road to Mithrilis... when I was young, the ruined Black Empire had a hidden stronghold in the forest. It may still be in use." The voice of the eldest Bulbmin, Azagrîk, older than I.
4110
4111"I will, Azagrîk, watch over the temple for me."
4112
4113I leave the temple behind, trusting Az to do a great job.

4115"Finally! " Clade shouted as we were out of the hearing of the bulbmin. "Off to Mirthrilis!"
4116
4117"...I find myself inclined to agree." Zanixia gave one of her rare comments, "This place is far too light..."
4118

4120
4121"IT BE NOT FAR BUT QUICKEST THROUGH THE FOREST AND CHEESE WILL FLY AND HIT EMERAL AND EMERAL WILL BE SAD, BUT WE SHOULD GO THROUGH THE FOREST 'CAUSE IT IS FASTEST AM I RITE?" Glowy screamed out.

4123"The forest... so peaceful." Rune sighed, "Hey, no sneaking off!" I heard a squeel from the blue pikmin, Yurt.
4124
4125"But I don't want to go through the forest..." Yurt complained.
4126
4127"SILLY MORTAL NO WANTING TO GO THROUGH THE FOREST EVEN THOUGH IT FILLED WITH CREEPY CRAWLIES AND NO CHAOS EMERALDS AND SWORDCHUCKS. FASTER WE GO SOONER WE GET BACK AM I RITE? I LUUUUUUUUUUV TEH CHEEEEKKKKKKAAAAAAA---- NONONONONONONONONONONONONONO! NO WATER! WATER BAD!"

4132
4133"Wait, what's going to happen?!" Yurt's voice has become nervous. Hahahaha!
4134
4135"It is not of your concern." I responded, using my cane for support.

4137"GLOWY KNOW WHAT HAPPENS!"
4138
4139"Tell me!"

4164Name: Ubiquitous
4165
4166Color: Grey
4167
4168Class: Wherever he's put.
4169
4170Abilities: His hands, feet, and leaf are magnetized. Skilled mostly in hand-to-hand combat. VERY limited wind and ice magic power.
4171
4172Physical description: Dark grey color with red hands, leaf, and feet (sound familiar?). He has a witch/wizard hat that he wears like Isaac (LostMagic).
4173
4174Bio: The word "Ubiquitous" means being everywhere at once. I'll see how I'll work this into his personality. For those in the Great Piknin RPG, this is basically one of DR's ancestors. He has the same personallity too. For those who don't know my previous character, he was a highly ranked pikmin who hung out with a munge dweevil and had a sense of humour.
4175
4176
4177It'll take me awhile to get my bearing, so bear with me. Oh, and if my humour (or lack of) gets annoying, tell me and I'll try to tone it down.

4184Ubi was recalling how things had been going. He was a grey pikmin. The grey pikmin were a rare sight. Very few pikmin had the mutigenic gene that allows the transformation.
4185So far he had been living alone in the Valley of Repose, practicing his magic. His wind magic could hardly blow over a Skitter Leaf, though there were none to try it out on, and his ice powers couldn't even freeze water. He needed practice.
4186"Maybe I need to go somewhere else for a change of pace," he said to himself. He decided he would. He packed up some supplies, put them on a metal disk, wrapped the whole thing in a cloth. "There." he said and walked away, the suplies magnetically following him.
4187After a day or two, he met up with a group of pikmin...

This is his effects to try and keep in my head, was to affect my genes. These weak attempts could not withstand my psychic powers, and eventually, a creature purged from my head. This creature was of pure water, save the leaf and its own heavy mandibles. It was the head of a regular pikmin without facial features. Strong mandibles were on the bottom. The parasite fled down the roads of Mythryllis, and I was given a strange look.

4369We had managed to drag Zanixia back... stubborn ***** still doesn't like me though, and I can't help but wonder if those glances she gives toward me are actually hateful glares laced with poison. She obviously doesn't want to be here.
4370
4371But anyway, now we're on a boat... surrounded by endless blue sea. I can't help but shudder a little bit... as a manipulator of the flame, I'm perfectly aware that water drowns what I control best...
4372
4373"Not to mention, it can also drown many other things..."
4374
4375But otherwise, if this material does bother me a bit, I can't help but feel confident... after all, I have been growing stronger.
4376
4377Since that shock of pain I felt climbing up that mountain near Pelphi, I've been able to call upon the wild flames with more control and intensity... its as if the flames live within me. Perhaps, if I grow stronger... I can conjure the wing of the phoenix once again...
4378
4379Yet everyday, I feel the same sharp pain, in the same point on my right shoulder... I try to forget about those haunting words... but they just keep on coming back.
4380
4381"You have been marked for the sins you have commited... and he will kill you when the time arises himself..."
4382
4383The scar on my shoulder doesn't even seem like a scar... its more like an intricate tatoo. But I'm aware that, because it exists, I must always be wary of the darkness that seeks to destroy me. It appears that I've been shifted into a balance I do not wish to stay in...
4384
4385Damn those meddling Gods! What do they see in me? I am but a simple sinner... I do not deserve this fate! They drag the mortal blood into their eternal feuds... and shed mortal blood. Fight for your godamn selves you bastards!
4386
4387And now, I'm sailing on the open sea, with a bunch of strangers I have yet to know personally... all because of some destiny I don't even know of.
4388
4389I closed my eyes, making a silent prayer. And I thought of Pelphi... and the Oracle.
4390
4391"Please Oracle... calm this one's mind... for he does not seek to play such a huge roles within the affairs of the almighty... please... calm this one's heart..."
4392
4393As if getting my message, I felt a sudden disturbance in my mind... recognizing it not to be malicious, I let it slip through... and it was Talis.
4394
4395"Relax Flare... the Gods have great things in mind for you... trust in their judgement... for they will protect you."
4396
4397I sighed, only hoping that was true.

4404message detail Ok, I'm going to add some ideas for Flare's skills... with some thinking, I've decided to make them more interesting...
4405
4406Wing of the Phoenix- This one I already exhibited... but basically, its when Flare conjures a massive blade made of flame, stronger than the most durable metal. It also gives Flare unbelievable agility, almost godlike, and incredibly strength, not to mention, making Flare extremely light-footed. But, it only appears in times of desperation, and severely drains stamina when it dissipates.
4407
4408Sempra-Vortex- a more powerful version of Flare's vortex, flames explode along Flare's staff, forming a raging tornado of flame that explodes with cataclysmic force upon impact.
4409
4410Note, these are ultimate skills, not generic, so please stand me by. biggrin.gif

4448The ship started to leave. Ubi, being a blue pikmin before going through the mutigenic change, swam towards the ship and clung onto the Anchor.
4449"Hope they get wherever they're going quickly. I may be fish food here. Uh-oh. I hope they don't drop anchor anytime soon. I hate the taste of salt water." He rambled to himself.

4469The boat ride was longer than I expected.
4470
4471We all took the time to lounge around. Again. We chatted, we slept, ate, tried to kill each other...
4472
4473Currently, was flying a few laps around the ship. The sea breeze made it an absolute joy to fly alongside the ship, and helped me clear my minds off things.
4474
4475I lowered my altitude, getting closer to the ship. I tried a few flips and rolls - it was all breeze thanks to the updraft.
4476
4477I spotted Flare, hanging around the bow of the ship. He looked like he was dozing off. I, deciding that I had nothing else to do, decided to wake him. Studying him carefully, I pulled out my spear, and poked him with the blunt end.
4478
4479Immediately, out of pure instinct and reaction, he woke, turned around, and tried to yank the instrument of his awakening down. Namely, me. But I promptly pulled it away before he had a chance to drag me down.
4480
4481Flare looked up at me as I ascended a few more feet, and, in an irritable voice, yelled, "Could you not?" I could barely discern the sound of his voice from the crashing of the waves, the gentle, whistling wind, and the hearty yells of the crew. And the flap of my wings.
4482
4483I grinned lightheartedly, and began to yell, too, "Your stance looked awkward. It annoyed me, so I decided to wake you."
4484
4485"What kind of reason is that?" he yelled back.
4486
4487"Pff. Well, actually, I was just bored. Flying around isn't going to lift my spirits so easily."
4488
4489Flare crossed his arms, fully awake now, and leaned against a pole, "Leave me alone. I was just beginning to pull back memories of home, too..." he faded off.
4490
4491I flew down, closer to deck, so Flare and I wouldn't have to yell. "Speaking of home... I heard Oracle speaking of Mt. Ordeals"
4492
4493Flare looked over, "What of it?"
4494
4495"Well... I just miss home. Mt. Ordeals." I said rather distantly, "I've been kept away from it for quite a while, all because of some doddering old priest, Mathias.
4496
4497"Some time back, I was sent, along with many other green pikmin, into a battle with multiple blue and yellow pikmin. It was a minor skirmish, at the most, but our real objective was the black pikmin they held hostage. From what I know, he was important, obviously very vital if my people were to retrieve a black, one of a despised race, from the grasp of yellows and blues. Although, as we trekked back home..."
4498
4499I drifted back to the memory, to the maddened chants, to the flashes of magic, to the horribly familiar cackling...
4500
4501Flare seemed in deep thought, himself. Around the two of us, the sounds of bustling activity suddenly seemed to fade out. Slowly, he said, "Who was the one you were to retrieve?"
4502
4503I frowned. "Apparently, it was a priest named Dhade."

4524
4525"Good... Evil... you rarely see both sides clearly. The current followers of Zeromus do not remember what it used to be like... Not at all. Right now they have a common enemy that holds them together and keeps them from destroying themselves.

4541"Way back when, I rescued him from a coilition of Yellow & Blue troops... He must have been pretty important, no?"
4542
4543"Oh... Clade...What have you done?" I shake my head in sorrow.
4544
4545"Hmm?" Flare's voice picks up, curious, oh so curious.
4546
4547"Dhade... Dhade... he was not a good person... he..." The memory hurts, still, it always hurts... "He is the reason for my blindness... He was the Head Priest of Zeromus, and now rules the Black Pikmin."

4595No god to confess to, wouldn't need to 'cause I don't sin.
4596No god!
4597No god!"
4598And so I rambled on as I sang and... well, basically worshipped the fact that I didn't have a god. I danced around the little fire that we had set up for the camp.
4599"No god!
4600No god!"
4601"Rune, shut up. Now." One of them called to me. Pissed off too it seemed. Excellent.
4602"No god!
4603No god!" I continued.
4604"Rune, last warning. Shut up." Good, good. Wonder who was pissed off anyways. Didn't really matter. Well, except for one of them.
4605
4606Get up, get up, get up, get up, get up, get up...
4607
4608And then I heard the crunch of a foot treading on the ground. About time. My ears ready for the slight whistle that would be given by a swinging foot, fist or leaf, I realized from the unshouldered weight that it was Flare.
4609
4610No, no, no, no, NO!
4611
4612Stopping my singing and dancing, I nimbly dodged out of the way of Flare, took his original postion, comfy, I noticed, and grinned mischeviously as if it had been my intention all along.

4635Flamingcake says:
4636You can.

4639

4645I don't give a crap, just don't kill it.
4646
4647~!Yurt!~
4648Ah, water. Truly a wonderful thing.
4649As Yurt driffted on his back, he was oblivious to the approaching creature. Lying on his back, he flipped over and dived under, and the creature followed. But then the creaure thought for a moment... and floated just beneath the surface.
4650
4651Yurt came up, gasping for air, a reflex that occured without his consent, even with his gills. But as Yurt had gasped in that air... the creature had seen it's chance.
4652
4653Wha-? What's happening!
4654The ancient one was much more suitable. This vessel will suffice.
4655
4656For now.
4657
4658Yurt was feeling light headed and wandering back to the shore. He opened his mouth to ask what their plans were, and what he had missed.
4659
4660If only it had come out somtihng like that.
4661
4662"FISHSEED WANT KNOW WHAT HAPPEN."
4663
4664Oh ****. You had better not be-
4665I am the parisite of which the ancient one spoke. Though, I must say, parisite is rather crude for one of my abilities.
4666This is my body. Out. Now.
4667You would be hard pressed to remove me... Yurt? Oh yes, I can see it in your memories. But don't worry, we shall part... however, I plan to take this vessel.
4668
4669When the time comes.
4670You'll be hard pressed to remove me.
4671...You are not what you seem. Interesting... events surround you. Ah well. Without your memories, you will be nothing.
4672As will you be nothing without yours... Gylik.
4673
4674And at that, Gylik, the parisite recoiled, and Yurt opened his mouth.
4675
4676"I think I swalled a bug while FISHSEED SWIM IN WATERPOND."
4677
4678Ah, great. You come and go.
4679You are not what you seem... and you will pay for that deception.

4692I was in link with Talis. His words were... soothing. My burdens gone, Im dozed lightly at the bow of the ship...
4693
4694Suddenly, I felt a jab at my back. Whipping around by pure instinct, I grabbed the weapon that touched me, and yanked it out of the hand of... Clade?
4695
4696He gave me a wry grin, telling me he wasn't fazed at all. Sort of creeped out, I gave him a suspicious look.
4697
4698"What do you want Clade?"
4699
4700"Nothing really... I got bored of flying around the ship, so I decided to check up on you. Oh, by the way, your defensive stance is awkward... the positions of your feet disbalance you and expose your flank."
4701
4702I quickly snapped out of my stance, and stood up. Leaning on the rail, I sighed. I didn't need to patronized and bothered. Clade drifted down next to me.
4703
4704"I was just getting memories of home back too..." Hopefully, Clade wouldn't be so dense that he wouldn't see my dissapointment.
4705
4706Apparently, he got the message. He stepped closer, as if trying to hide some information from others.
4707
4708"I'm sorry for the interruption... but while I heard you mumbling to yourself, I heard Mt. Ordeal being mentioned... do you know what that place is?"
4709
4710"No," I said, shaking my head.
4711
4712His eyes softened. "It was my home... but my doddering fath- priest was all over me all the time... so I left to find some freedom." He sighed. Clade appeared a bit older, for just a moment.
4713
4714His eyes once again hardened. "Anyway, I was sent on a covert operation to free a black pikmin... apparently he was very important, for he was one of the despised... We succeeded in our operation, sent him back, and never saw him again. He gave us all enormous sums of money, but I refused, unlike my comrades. Later though, I heard it all disappeared-"
4715
4716"What was that pikmin's name?" I suddenly seemed interested.
4717
4718"Uh... if I remember correctly... Dhade."
4719
4720Some robed figure nearby us suddenly made a movement toward us. He removed his hood, and I saw the unique skin and scarred eyes... it was Talis!"
4721
4722"You speak of this Dhade... what did he look like?" Talis spoke desperately, despite my obvious surprise he was on the ship.
4723
4724Clade responded hastily. "He was a typical black... just not as burly, more slim... and he had a somewhat... disturbed look in his eyes..."
4725
4726"Clade..." I saw the pained look in Talis's dead eyes, "What have you done? Dhade is a terrible person... responsible for my disabilities... everything I've always suffered..."
4727
4728Before, however, Talis could continue his macabre narrative, Zanixia called out, oblivious to our tension.
4729
4730"LAND!"
4731
4732Cut off unexpectedly, Talis lowered his head, and hurried off the boat. Giving eachother perplexed looks, both me and Clade walked off... but I wondered... who was Dhade, and what danger does he pose? Does he have something to do with the mark on my back? My expression turned grim, and Clade looked at me with worry.
4733
4734I knew my fate. If Dhade was responsible for my curse... than inevitably I would meet him.
4735
4736Until then... however, I must prepare...

4747Land. At last.
4748
4749One to the next problem: What now?
4750
4751The most Talis said was to follow the path that led away from the shore, twisted up to and through rolling, grassy hills, then finally, to a treacherous-looking, rocky steppe.
4752
4753The above description does not take into account the sheer length of the path.
4754
4755Flare was the one to leap ahead, leading the way. I followed behind a ways, with the new "Glowy" right next to me. Right behind us, Talis, Yurt, and Rune followed, Rune guiding Talis whenever it was necessary, and Yurt constantly dipping over the edge of incoherence. And about a mile back, Zanixia sulked along, at a brisk pace with an aura of annoyance around her so strong that when she walked by a palm tree it bent over and snapped.
4756
4757No, I'm pretty sure that wasn't a hallucination nor was it my imagination exaggerating things.
4758
4759We walked for roughly an hour, and finally, we came across...
4760
4761We climbed over one last hill, and at the top, we could see it.
4762
4763"We are here, are we not?" Talis suddenly said, "The ruin, I mean."
4764
4765A large, mossy structure lay ahead. Statues of mythological creatures from all religions were situated all over the place. It was quite tall, and the area it covered was vast and surprising, especially for an island as small as this. Its void-of-an-entrance was visible from here, here bing about a mile away.
4766
4767"Oracle, we are still a fair distance away," Rune said, his voice rather muffled by the incredible wind that had now picked up.
4768
4769Flare, who was already half-way down the hill, turned back, and yelled, "Come, now! The temple won't come to us! Let's go!" Quickly, he seemed to glide over the ground as he ran for the temple.

4787I think I was about to go insane on that boat. I haven't had a chance to practise my training for about three days. When I don't train I end up feeling tense and depressed. It had also occured to me that ...The Oracle appears to be talking to himself, which he does a lot. It's mostly nonsense that nobody understands, but he talks about Flare and Glowy sometimes. He thinks nobody has noticed him doing it, but I catch on to more then people think.
4788"Bastar..I mean, Oracle." I said, walking a bit faster to catch up to him, "Where is this temple?"
4789"We should get there by dusk." The Oracle replied, evasively. I sighed, pulling my shurikan out of my belt, examining the blades, checking for shine and sharpness. They seemed to be in fairly good condition.
4790Good. Because if they weren't, I would have definately snapped.

4798We have made it... wonderful. Now we can begin.
4799
4800I can no longer view the temple itself, but I remember what it used to be... Statues of the gods varied around, by their age/date of deification. Each section of the wall covered in a pic detailling the triumphs of the God. Chaos banishing Zeromus... PI giving knowledge unto pikmin....
4801
4802And at the very end of the temple, the floor & the ceiling depicting Czaryuu, the first Deity, neither God nor Goddess, the eternal void which gave life unto the world. The ceiling as a starry sky, the ground as a grassland... I miss sight... This was probably the most beautiful temple in all the world, save the hidden village and the famed Castle Ordeals.
4803
4804I still remember the inscription on one of the statues...:
4805
4806Long ago, the War of the Gods
4807reduced the world to a scorched wasteland,
4808and magic simply ceased to exist.
4809
4810One thousand years have passed...
4811and new technology threatens the old ways.
4812
4813But there are those who would enslave the world
4814by reviving the dread destructive force
4815known as "magic."
4816
4817Could it be that those in power
4818are on the verge of repeating
4819a senseless and deadly mistake?
4820
4821"Now... Xanixia, Glowy, over here." I motion to the center of the circle, "Now, follow my lead..."

4824hoisting the light and the dark
4825arises high up in the sky
4826to the still land.

4828it brings another promise to mother earth
4829with a bounty and mercy."

4870Walking back to my home city, now somewhat calmed, I had time to think. I realized that the Pink oracle was Talis, the one who caused Dhade's disfigurement. I should have killed him... but if I had, I'd probably have wound up like Dhade... or worse. Glowy, on the other hand, was probably someone I could have killed easily. And I should have... Dhade will hate me for it, even if he doesn't see the mark on my hand... I should keep my gauntl-

4872Something makes me pause. What is it? It seems slightly familiar... A scent in the air. What is it? I think it is the scent left after lightning strikes. What do they call it... Ozone? Yeah... But it hasn't rained in days...
4873

4878"So... he decides... to show... himself... at last. This time... VENGENCE IS MINE."

4880I let out a roar of rage, and my Berserker Rush ability kicked in. I bulked up considerably, my left eye opened, revealing the blood red color of the cut eye, aligned with the scar on my face. A demonic aura flared up about me. I took off in the direction of the scent, looking for it's source...

4885
4886Lo and behold, who else should suddenly blaze past me at seemingly subsonic speeds but Shadow himself. However, he merely ignored me, and was running pretty damn fast. I wonder what's got to him? I take a deep breath to try to calm myself at seeing him... And smell ozone in the air. Could that be what had set him off? Perhaps this has something to do with the vision I recieved before... I think I'll follow him...

4900The figure standing in front of the two Black Pikmin is facing away from them and is what appears to be a White Pikmin. However, he has three pairs of wings, one raven-like, one demon-like, and the last angel-like, in that order, from top to bottom. He also has two stalks, at the end of each is a beautiful white rose. He also has a medium-length, whip-like tail. He is glowing a soft white light. However, when he turns to the pair of Black Pikmin, one gaping and the other out of his mind with rage, he reveals ominous looking red eyes, a wicked smirk, and two very large swords (Like so: http://www.thottbot.com/?so=413)
4901
4902"So..." he says, in a voice like silk, looking pointedly at Shadow. His voice suddenly turns into something far more demonic. "You're in a hurry to die, are you?"

4998We were finally off the boat. All those days at sea sort of made me queasy anyway. I've never liked water...
4999
5000Mt. Ordeals apparently is one of the higher peaks in this area, with a large temple on top. Talis appears to be desperately rushing to get there, though its really not too easy. Because the terrain is generally mountainous, the air is incredibly thin, so its a strain to go at a constant pace.
5001
5002To be honest, I feel as if the very oxygen within me has been slowly constricted more and more. Some of us has gotten used to the air, but I still haven't.
5003
5004Anyway, we're pretty far from sea level now. I can see the land that hosts this mountain... the land is huge, and toward the west the sun shines with an unparalleled brilliance. It really beautiful... but I worry.
5005
5006Recently, my "mark" has been acting up again. Not anything serious, but I've had a few burning pains here and then. Sleep has been hard to get, because somehow, it always jerks me awake. And I can't help but feel I'm getting tracked...
5007
5008The whole group is relatively jolly though. Zanixia is a bit uncooperative, but she generally obeys, and the new Glowy is... just hard to get used to. I almost miss his old side. Clade's just a great guy, and we mostly talk, exchanging fighting techniques and whatnot. Except he knows a lot more than I do. Pft.
5009
5010Its now about noonday. The whole caravan stopped on a wide outcropping, bare with sparse amounts of vegetation. It was shadowed by the peak of Mt. Ordeals, and gave us some reprieve from the sunlight. I stopped to lean against the cliff face, and relaxed my muscles. Clade drifted by me, and amused expression on his face.
5011
5012"Winded?" he asked, with a wry grin.
5013
5014"Oh shutup Clade," I said, annoyed, "its not like I got the ability to fly around anyway I wish."
5015
5016"Gah, I'm sorry sir, I didn't mean to offend. But I flew up a bit farther, and I'd have to say you got at least another day of hard marching. The air's so thin I even feel a bit tired. Only a bit though," smiled Clade, as if trying to encourage.
5017
5018"Whatever," I said, sighing, "I guess I've just felt a bit drained... well because I haven't gotten the chance to sleep. Have the others told you about my mark?"
5019
5020"No," he said, nodding his head.

5037I removed the top part of my robe, and I revealed the scar to Clade, an ugly and folded lash in an intricate pattern. Clade gagged.
5038
5039"Holy-"
5040
5041"I got it while fighting the dark servants of a god on one of the Oracle's missions... and so far, everywhere I go, it burns, as if those demons know where I am... all the time," I stopped, feeling a bit aged in my own right, "Everywhere I go, I endanger people. Which means I must constantly stay alert and destroy the evil that follows me whenever it appears."
5042
5043"How many times has this occured so far?" asked Clade.
5044
5045"Once they appeared when I was with companions... and other times... so far, perhaps at least twice, all times in the early morning, when the shadows run rampant."
5046
5047"My god... how do you intend to cure this malady?"
5048
5049"I... don't know."
5050
5051We both fell silent. The rest of the party had gone somewhere else, though nearby. Despite that though, we were alone. I felt like we were vulnerable... but...
5052
5053I replaced my clothes, and sat down. I felt tired. I didn't deserve. My sins in life weren't that great... in no way did I deserve to repent them in this manner...
5054
5055But I guess I was doomed to my own destiny. That is, until I died. And then I'd be free. Heh.
5056
5057While immersed in my own thoughts, Clade sat nearby, looking a bit troubled. It was obvious he was disturbed... obviously understanding my plight. But I couldn't get him involved. It would be too danger-
5058
5059God! The pain came back, whipping through my shoulders like a fire. My body spasmed, as I fell to the ground and shook. Clade shot up, and went to my side asking if I was okay. But I couldn't hear him, and I only heard the voice that consumed my soul.
5060
5061"MEANINGLESS GNAT, YOU CONTINUE TO DEFY ME SO? I DO NOT WISH TO PLAY ANYMORE GAMES, AND I WILL KILL YOU, AT ANY COST! NOW DIE MORTAL!"
5062
5063The searing pain stopped... but I felt a sense of extreme dread. Gripping my staff, I stodd up, as Clade stared in terror. Out from the cliff face, cloaked in the shadows, a hand came out, a hand shaded in the color of ink... within moments a head, vague, yet more noticeable due to the burning eyes it held appeared, sending chills down my spine. From that, a broad body materialized, and finally the other hand produced itself, holding a wicked blade, shaped like a circle, from one of its sides. Shadowy cloak swinging back and forth, it was a fearsome sight to behold. And as it entered this mortal realm, the sound of spirits permeated the air... the sound of vengeance. It was a Spectre... an Avatar of Vengeance.
5064
5065Without warning, the Spectre brought its blazing eyes into contact with mine. They bore holes into my soul... and without warning, it shifted in my direction with incredible speed. Striking me, it sent itself and me over the cliff face.
5066
5067And I felt nothing else but fear...
5068
5069Note, the inspiration for the Spectre comes from Mercurial, from DOTA. She is capable of projecting ghostly images of herself to attack foes at will, can turn ethereal, and finally, can produce great amounts of fear within her targets.

5082
5083Name: Dusk
5084
5085Color: White?
5086
5087Class: Demigod, Windseeker.
5088
5089Weapons: Two very large swords by the name of Thunderfury, Blessed Blades of the Windseeker(http://www.thottbot.com/?so=413). The sword may look large, but is actually very light, making for easy wielding and use.
5090
5091Abilities: MANY. But here are a few...
5092
5093Guiding Light (Passive): Dusk is always glowing a soft white light. Always. Can be a downside when stealth is required... Which, for someone of his power, it usually isn't.
5094
5095Windrider (Passive): Dusk has the wind on his side, and, as such, can run and move much faster than normal Pikmin. Although, he doesn't actually "run," since he's always floating about half a foot off the ground.
5096
5097Resistance (Passive): The swords grant immense resistance to the elements of nature (Fire, water, ice, lightning, wind, etc). However, they grant no resistance to the elements of Light and Darkness, which are not truely a part of nature. Dusk absorbs lightning and wind elements.
5098
5099Blade Rush: Dusk charges and slashes the living crap out of his target. This is what he used to give Shadow all those scars...
5100
5101Lightning Blitz: Fires a bolt of electricity from the ball of it that's contained in the circular opening in the sword. The lughting hits one target, splits and hits two more, then those jump to one more each. Each one hit is then temporarily stunned by a small whirlwind.
5102
5103And many more...
5104
5105Phsyical Description: Appears to be a White Pikmin. However, he has three pairs of wings, one raven-like, one demon-like, and the last angel-like, in that order, from top to bottom. He also has two stalks, at the end of each is a beautiful white rose. He also has a medium-length, whip-like tail. He is glowing a soft white light. Has ominous red eyes.
5106
5107Short Bio: A rogue Demigod who kills other demigods and anyone else he feels like killing. He went rogue shortly after attaining the status of Windseeker. Apparenlty, he's done something to seriously piss off Shadow...

5132
5133Name: Spectre
5134
5135Secondary Title: The Avatar of Vengeance
5136
5137Class: Not quite a demi-god, but about a step lower
5138
5139Description: Spectre's head is rather vague, but is most prominent due to his burning eyes, ones without pupils or eyelids. They glow with a burning fury... the fury of vengeance. His body is like that of an assassin... thin yet very powerful. He wears a light platemail, one with large shoulder blades, yet it is extremely light and very maneuverable. From his armor lies a large and shimmering cloak, one that cuts off Spectre's shape with its undulating shapes. Also, Spectre is a very dark shade, yet translucent like a ghost. Often, he will disappear and reappear into view, due to his naturally phantom-like properties.
5140
5141Weapon: Spectre carries a large, circular blade, inscribed with the runes of many dead languages. (Imagine a big circle, then imagine it as a large bladed disk. Then, imagine one small part of the circle being covered with a grip, and that's where Spectre holds the blade.) Christened Azwraith by the souls of the dead, its phantasmal properties allow it to cut objects beyond the normal extent of natural weapons made of solid objects. Imbued with the bloodthirst of vengeful spirits, Azwraith constantly seeks out foes, making it seem as if it had a mind of its own...

5145Phase: Spectre's ghost-like properties allow him to temporarily go through any solid object, and also prevent him from recieving physical harm.
5146
5147Bloodseeker: Spectre's blade hums whenever it nears powerful foes, allowing spirits to whip Spectre into a berserker frenzy, increasing his speed and reactions.
5148
5149Eviscerate: Spectre rushes past a target and whips Azwraith across his foes chest in a diagonal line, causing massive bleeding and possibly fatal internal and external damage.
5150
5151Haunt: Spectre is capable of projecting near perfect copies of himself from large distances, terrorizing and harrying enemies.
5152
5153A bio, if necessary: Spectre is the living incarnate of all spirits of vengeance. He seeks to destroy all living things, making no differentiation between targets. Whether they are man, or even women and child, he will cut them down without mercy.
5154
5155Cold and creepy, Spectre rarely speaks for the sake of speaking. Unlike his more verbose masters, whatever Spectre said, Spectre would mean. Which meant if he said, "You must die," yes, you'll obviously die. Few can even scratch him, and many are incredibly intimidated by him. Using a combination of stealth and psycological terrorism, Spectre is a vicious, bloodthirsty and very competent assassin.

5204
5205"You..." Shadow growled, obviously pissed off.
5206
5207"Yes, me... I'm surprised you managed to find me again... But if you wish to die... I can easily grant that," purred Dusk.
5208
5209Black Art, on the other hand, seemed rather confused and overall a bit annoyed at being left out. 'Who the hell is this guy... and what'd he do to piss off Shadow?'
5210
5211Shadow clenched his fists. "I'll kill you here and now!" he screamed, and charged.
5212
5213Dusk merely smirked. "Have it your way..."
5214
5215Shadow attacks with a rush of slashes, vainly attempting to hit the much faster Dusk. The demigod simply dodges each and every attack, angering the Black Pikmin further.
5216
5217"Stop moving and face me like a man, coward!"
5218
5219Dusk's smug, cheery attitude immediately vanished. "I AM NOT A COWARD!"
5220
5221With that, he unleashed his first attack, slashing Shadow across the chest and sending him spiraling away. Shadow recovers, lands, and whips his tail around, catching Dusk in the face. Dusk stares dumbly ahead, not quite sure what just happened... then moves a hand up to his face and feels the wounds left by the spikes covering Shadow's tail. He turns and looks angrily at Shadow.
5222
5223"How... dare... you!"
5224
5225'This guy seems to like himself almost as much as I do myself,' mused Black Art.
5226
5227Dusk points the two swords at Shadow. "Lightning Blitz!" Twin bolts of lightning leapt from the swords toward Shadow and shock him. The bolts jump from him... and toward Black Art!
5228
5229"What the...!?" He's not quick enough to dodge and is electricuted, then blasted backward into a tree. Shadow manages to recover from the shock and thrusts his tail into the ground. A line of spikes starts shooting up, traveling toward Dusk.
5230
5231"How pathetic can you get?" Dusk mused. He simply floats away from the spikes, not noticing what Shadow's doing... Once the spikes stop, Shadow forcefully pulls his tail up from underground, leaving a nice long trench in the ground... and surrounding Dusk in thirty feet of spike studded tail!
5232
5233"What in the name of...?!"
5234
5235"BRISNGR!"
5236
5237As if that weren't bad enough, the spikes are suddenly swathed in flame! Shadow and Dusk turn as one to see a slightly burnt and VERY angry looking Black Art.
5238
5239"Shadow... that bastard electricuted me... KILL HIM."
5240
5241Shadow grimaced. He knew how much Black Art disliked being wounded... Then he smirked as realization struck. He had a flaming spike trap of death surrounding the biggest source of his hatred.
5242
5243"You die NOW, Dusk." And pulled the death trap inward, impaling Dusk in countless places with flaming spikes.
5244
5245"GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" the demigod roared... and Shadow's tail was suddenly repeled.
5246
5247"What the...?"
5248
5249Dusk turned and glared at the pair of gaping Black Pikmin, blood seeping from his burning wounds.
5250
5251"You... You win this time, maggot... but next time, you won't be so lucky!" With that, Dusk was suddenly swathed in a ball of light which shot off at astounding speed. Black Art turned his attention to Shadow.

5263
5264Black Art frowned. "I saw you with a group of Pikmin and the Ancient One! You were headed to Pelphi!"
5265
5266"If I had realized that Pink Pikmin Oracle was the one who caused Dhade's disfigurement, I'd have killed him on the spot! As it was, the "Ancient One" was distracting me too much for me to realize it!"
5267
5268"How so?"
5269
5270
5271"... He was pissing me off so I grabbed his head... and my hand, with no explanation whatsoever, catches on fire."
5272
5273Black Art's cheeks puffed up as he waged an internal war to choke his laughter down. Shadow glared at him.
5274
5275"I tried to kill HIM afterward... but the place has a load of Bulbmin in it. As the case was, I was no match for 12 Bulbmin. If you want to brand someone a traitor, consider the other Black Pikmin that was with them..."
5276
5277"Huh?"
5278
5279"I think her name was Zanixia..."

5299
5300'Oracle...
5301
5302Thank you.'
5303
5304I flew quickly and silently through the night, flying just above the tangled overhang of the branches in the forest. Each rhythmic flap propelled me faster and faster, and soon, I was moving at such speed that I had to squint in order to see ahead. All around, the scenery was absolutely beautiful: the image of the crescent moon reflected in the surface of a nearby lake, luscious, green forests as far as the eye can see, the incredible-looking mountain itself...
5305
5306Mt. Ordeals.
5307
5308My home.
5309
5310I flapped harder, and I ascended on the rising updraft. I then halted my flapping, and began to glide lazily, but swiftly through the air, my form jetting through the skies like the winds.
5311
5312I slowly began to cover the distance around the mountain, to my destination: The other side. What lay on the other side was something that I hadn't been to in a long time.
5313
5314My home.
5315
5316The Green Village.
5317
5318I grew nearer and nearer, and resumed flapping, steadily gaining altitude and speed as I did.
5319
5320I felt elated at the thought of going home, but...
5321
5322...Although, there will be much of an explanation required. Alderick will not be happy with me...
5323
5324I quickened my pace. I might as well get this over with. Quicker I get there, more time I have to spend there before I return to the Oracle's group.
5325
5326~~~
5327
5328With graceful precision, I touch down upon the earth. All around me, unusually enormous trees loomed overhead, their branches dilapidating the moonlight to the point that I could barely see.
5329
5330Trying to remember the exact landmark I was on, I feel my way around slowly. I remember this area vividly, and if I'm correct, the Gathering Tree should be right around...
5331
5332'Here,' I ran my hands up and down the familiar roots of the grand tree that my family treasured so much. In my childhood, I remember constantly playing around and on this tree with my friends, playing flight-ground tag with my friends around it, always sitting around or on it to ponder, sleeping...
5333
5334Although I could not see in the consuming darkness, I could almost make out the outline of the tree, standing proudly high above me. An image from my imagination seemed to replace that outline, and I thought I saw it, almost remembering the exact location of each leaf, exact areas where sunlight beamed upon, the shadow patterns on the trunk from the dilapidated sunlight...
5335
5336My childhood was based around it. Such memories I hold around it. Both pleasant and unpleasant. Ah, but now is not the time... I need to find the village, quickly, before a bulborb turns up.
5337
5338Now knowing the location of the Tree, a map of the vicinity seemed to pop up automatically in my mind. Since I knew the area so well...
5339
5340Following my instinct and memory, I cautiously felt my way around, watching for and saplings or roots that I may clumsily trip over. As I stepped carefully through the pitch-black forest, I eventually began to lose track of time. Minutes, hours... I mentally kicked myself for not waiting until sunrise to leave.
5341
5342It grew into a long and arduous process to slowly make my way to the village. It's at times like these that I curse the Elders for setting the village in such a clever and ingenious location.

5348
5349The previous statement does not exist.
5350
5351After presumably hours of mock-wading through the pitch black forest, I feel jubilated at the familiar sight of lights, of glowcaps and other such lighting sources. The familiar fires, the same scent, the same rushing stream just nearby...
5352
5353But most of all, the group of pikmin huddled one of the many fires dotting the area, laughing heartily and exchanging words with such cosiness.
5354
5355The same feeling of comfort I felt when around others of my kind suddenly fell upon me, and a large smile crept its way onto my face. With an odd, mixed sense of ecstatic cheer and calmness, I ran forward, to home.

5375
5376I awoke. My body burned in unimaginable pain, and my soul felt like it was being torn apart. But I awoke, and doing so, I was alive.
5377
5378I have no recollection of what had happened. My head burned, and my hands felt numb. What had happened to me? I shook my head. And who was I?
5379
5380Pulling myself up, I sought out water... Hearing the light gurgling of a brook, I staggered over to a small stream, undisturbed by foreign hands. Dipping my hand in, I reached it up to me lips and drank my fill...
5381
5382But nothing occured. Realizing what had happened, I reached down once again. Then I noticed... my hand did not scoop up the water... it rather went through it. Examining it, I gasped slightly. My hand appeared to be a translucent shade, constantly flickering in and out of view. Jerking my head over the stream to look upon myself, I was greeted by a terrible visage... a faceless void... one permeated by terrifying eyes. Jerking back, I tried to scream. But no sound emerged, and I began to shudder. I didn't understand anything... what had happened to me? Those burning eyes filled my thoughts, and I felt as a prescence beyond my greater control probed into me. Voices... voices filled my head.
5383
5384"Yes, avenge... find the truth... seek out that which was never righted... ignorant... justice is terror... scream, yes scream in fear... slay... destroy... AVENGE!"
5385
5386That last voice wracked my mind, and I recoiled. These... these voices whispered tempting thoughts... promises of power... no! I had to resist... before they consumed me... yes, before they consumed me...
5387
5388I was going mad... and my very mind fought against me... for what reason did those god's forsake to this dismal fate? I shuddered once again, and jerked as the voices came back with even greater force.
5389
5390"Find those who sin against all... those who wronged... avenge... destroy... wipe the world of the weak... mountain of ancient strength... pawns to be destroyed... destroyed... servants slain... servants that must be avenged... AVENGED!"
5391
5392"No!" I said aloud, to no one in particular, "I won't! I won't succumb to this madness! I can't! I can't!"
5393
5394The voices returned...
5395
5396"Fool... vengeance... older than time... we will find true justice... preconcieved notions... arrogance... yes, destroy the guilty... their suffering... AVENGE!!"
5397
5398"But why?! Why this hatred? Why has you distorted and destroyed what I had before? WHY?!"
5399
5400"Because... when you died... fools destroyed... yes destroyed... took all you had... killed off... ripped away... you died to avenge... but you did no vengeance... those loved... and so your hatred... it burns... burns..."

5409
5410A memory whipped back into my head... I saw fire... screams... suffering... and death. My burning eyes grew in intensity, screaming what agonized screams I could not. For I knew I had been betrayed... but I had forgotten...
5411
5412"WHO AM I?!"
5413
5414The voices within me spoke, as if calming me.
5415
5416"Who you were... irrelevant... name is lost... purpose not... you are now the avatar... the imbodiement of vengeance... you are what we have sought... to do what we cannot... to avenge... you... the Spectre"
5417
5418I sunk to my knees. My despair was unmatched, my pain incredible. I did not understand... but somehow, I knew. I knew my purpose. For it was all I had left in my forsaken existence.
5419
5420I stood up, and raised my head high, setting my blazing eyes upon the air around me. I heard the spirits, chanting, wailing, suffering... seeking to amend crimes unpunished. I saw their pain... I saw their anger. And I understood.
5421
5422"Spirits... of vengeance... I understand that I nothing left for me in this lifetime... I cannot understand how my fate fell this way, nor do I understand why I was chosen... but I will do this task you seek me to do. Just I ask... how will I? I am nothing but a vile husk... a phantom."
5423
5424"Perhaps... yes indeed... we will arm... with material... beyond mortal realms... firstly, great thing... Aegis of Immortality..."
5425
5426There was a sharp sound, like the tearing of a moutainside. In the air floated a tremendous pice of metal, a plate mail. Above, a light helm, once that covered my head, but prominently revealed my eyes. From the shoulder blades it possessed a cloak, one that shimmered, constantly shifting in and out of sight... I reached out for it... and it felt surprisingly light. Even more so, when I placed it upon myself, piece by piece, it seemed like each piece adhered itself onto me, bonding me inside a fortress... but I was flexible, and it seemed like the armor didn't even exist.
5427
5428"The robe will protect... magic attacks on you... helm will block meddling minds of others... keep your secrets safe within the rest is by your own doing... next treasure... Azwraith..."
5429
5430To me right, another sharp crack ensued, and I saw a shimmering blade, essentially a razor sharp circle of metal. It appeared almost transparent, but when I grabbed the handle, it assumed solidity. It hummed with a battlefury, one that made my blood pound... for it seemed like it sought to shed blood... and consume.
5431
5432"Azwraith... destroyer of souls... dangerous... but must be controlled... your task to do so... will not harm you... only your mind... be careful... the blade is your bond... your brother..."
5433
5434I understood. The blade almost spoke to me... it seemed linked directly to me... and it felt so very swift... and gave me an incredible thirst for battle. I felt power... power from myself.
5435
5436"Spectre... we did not wish to doom you to this fate... we saw you by chance... and we felt your intensity to avenge... it was our fate to seek you out... fight for the unavenged... but at the cost of your own sanity..."
5437
5438I would surely go mad. But I had no other purpose in life... and I would have prefered to go mad after avenging those who have died unjustly... I raised my eyes, burning with conviction.
5439
5440"Yes spirits... I will be careful... and I will not let you down..."
5441
5442And the prescence... the voices... they disappeared. Relaxing, I felt myself loosen my link to the world... and noticed myself become transparent. My arnaments followed suit... and I looked every inch the avenger... every inch a deadly force... every part, a Spectre.

5463
5464Hopefully, you now understand Spectre's position a bit more now... I could have him attack the Pink Village, specifically Flare, for I also portrayed Flare as a great sinner in his earlier life, with no regard for others. Perhaps Spectre will seek to slay Flare... in hope of eliminating the grudge of those Flare has wronged. Him just irrationally striking no longer makes sense, since essentially, he is no longer a part of the dark ones who seek Flare. I can make him separately a challenging force, a troubled and pitiable one. One whom will most likely change, and will probably suffer much from both sides. But hey, he'll rule. He is the Avatar of Vengeance after all. biggrin.gif

5466*Note the Aegis of the Immortal and Azwraith are both from DOTA. The Aegis is an item that gives the player MASSIVE damage and spell damage reduction, and also extra lives so the players cannot truly "die" for about three times. Azwraith is a spear wielding illusionist, capable of conjuring an army of himself within seconds. He disappears amongst his many clones and appears out of nowhere, striking with extreme speed. Stealth and mental manipulation are his greatest assets.

5501
5502"How in the name of everything dark did you...?"
5503
5504"I meant only to break a bone... but I wound up cracking the shell of its claw. So I healed it back up, and it started following me. Pretty cool, huh?"

5524The mage looked taken aback for a second, not expecting this. "........ That'll do. Very well... Let's return to the temple. I shall inform Dhade of your decision. He has a mission for me anyway."

5538I can no longer stay with these people. Lately I have been getting disturbing visions of the village being destroyed. I've done what the Bastard wanted me to do, now I see no reason for me to be here. I can't stand any more visions...
5539That night, I slipped away from my group. Everyone was pre-occupied by their own thoughts.
5540Slipping down the grassy hillside, I pulled my shurikan out of my pockets. I feel I will be needing them now. I'm a warrior anyway. I don't want to be an Oracle. I just want to go back to the way things were before Pelphi.
5541The temple was quite far from where we had stayed, but I had walked almost half of the way already, the night sky gleaming up ahead, the moon merely a silver sliver of light.
5542The temple was up ahead. I sighed, the peaceful surroundings reminding me of the mountainside.
5543I walked in. The temple had two lights on inside, but only because someone had simply forgotten to blow them out.
5544I stood on the altar, trying to remember the chant.
5545I must leave...

5555Our group is dwindling. Shadow is long gone, and I've foresaw us meeting up with him on different sides of a battle. Zanixia has slipped away, and the Gods aren't telling me any more on it. Clade stopped following us to live in his past. All that remain of us are Flare, Talis, Yurt, and I.
5556
5557"So, Yurt, what do you plan on accomplishing by following us? Any motives?"
5558
5559"FISHSEED NOT LIKE MUSHROOM NO MORE, LOSE YOURSELF! =_=" Yurt... replied.
5560
5561"Are you fine? You sound a bit like--"
5562
5563"FISHSEED NOT LIKE YOU. GO AWAY. =_="
5564
5565It's the parasite. His speech impairing side effect is very distinct. Yurt babbled on without my care.
5566
5567Right then a small group of Pink Pikmin ran for us... well, rather Talis. We received a barrage of questions, mainly pertaining the Oracle. A female pikmin stood around Flare, obviously showing signs of attraction. The Pink Pikmin avoided Yurt like the plague. I received zero (0) attention. Until a curious pikmin girl wandered towards me.
5568
5569"Hi."
5570
5571"Aieee! That mushroom just talked!"
5572
5573There were mutters, and just as Talis was about to explain, I burst off again.
5574
5575"Yes, I can talk, and I'm going to eat you all. All of your deaths will be particularly yummy."
5576
5577"IT TALKS!"
5578
5579"YES IT DO DUMMY. =_="
5580
5581Hilarity insued. Pikmin tripping over other Pikmin, trying to escape my terror.
5582
5583"STOP!" Talis yelled. Everyone came to halt. "This is my friend, an ancient mushroom. That talks. And walks. Do not be alarmed." More muttering.

5600Home, I'm finally home...
5601
5602I walk through the streets, familiarity around me, I cannot see it, but the sounds remain the same. The smells... chants to various gods and goddesses being sung from the various temples.... home...
5603
5604Ubi, of course, was out of his mind, along with Flare... Glowy & Yurt were the subject of much attention.... mostly suspicion and fear from the younger ones.
5605
5606"I'm back, Elder..."
5607
5608"It is good to see you again"
5609
5610I felt his soothing presence, not near me, but he was stronger than Glowy in some aspects... Glowy could not transfer his power in such a way... no.
5611
5612"How is your wife?"
5613
5614" She's fine, thank you. She's out to the distant temple, making her own sacrifice. But you have not come back here for such simple chat. Why are you here, Liamar?"

5616"I'm known as Talis, now, Elder."
5617
5618"Well, Li--Talis, what is your purpose for returning home with such a band?"
5619
5620"Elder, I have woeful news. The Black Pikmin are preparing for war, one of their best soldiers was recently with us, he fled back to his dark stronghold. Zeromus is awakening... And--"
5621
5622"Ah, Zeromus... Yes, we have felt a dark presence, and this confirms it. The legend of Chaos will protect us as it did last time."
5623
5624"But Chaos and the other gods rarely participate in manners of war... and his people, the Bulbmin, are leaderless"
5625
5626"You must have faith... I shouldn't need to tell you that. You look too far towards the future. You must study all pieces of time; Past, Present, & Future."
5627
5628"Of course... I had another vision... we are here to fufil it. The gods have told me to travel to Mt. Ordeals.... to find the Clear & the Dark who exist in the Tomb."
5629
5630"Many have gone that road, Liamar, none have returned from this."

5641Heh...it looks like I have no other alternative. This is my only option now.
5642The gods cursed my family ages ago. My 'gift' is the curse. Some people may consider it a blessing, but it has done nothing but make me angry and isolated my whole life.
5643If I am to commit the act of Seppuku, I will need to do it in the proper way, as a final respect to my people. It is the only honourable way.
5644I unsheathed a sword from my belt. This sword was never one to use foolishly, and now I will use to finally make myself just like everyone else.
5645I stood on the alter, holding the sword tightly. I felt afraid, but I wanted to do this. I will not be an Oracle, and I don't care waht the God want. What have they done for us? They sit up in their realm and laugh at us from below.
5646I had fire. I had wind. I had earth. I had water.
5647I dipped the tip of the blade in each element...well, besides air, obviously.
5648I pulled a bag out of a cupboard in the temple, and began to spread white powder on the temple floor, marking the symbol on my clan. I could smell wet earth and hear lightening from outside. I smirked. It was almost amusing.
5649I stood in the centre of the symbol. Sweat as beading my forehead, and a churning sensation was in my gut.
5650I raised the sword and plunged it into my stomach, a blinding flash of white light filling the temple.

5720Am I dead? I thought to myself. Is this the afterlife?
5721No. I was not dead. But in that case, where am I?
5722My stomach was covered in blood. But the wound was beginning to heal.
5723Suddenly, I saw a figure appear in the mist, but I couldn't make them out in the fog.
5724"Who is there?" I called.
5725"I am Zeromus." the voice answered calmly. I didn't move.
5726"Zanixia...you are the Oracle of the Black pikmin. But you have been trying to escape from your powers a long time. But I can help you."
5727"You can?"
5728"If you promise to assist the black pikmin in the upcoming war, afterwards I will remove your powers. Only after, however. They will be useful."
5729I did not need to consider my choice. The Bastard had already refused to take away my powers. Zeromus had promised. Virtually.
5730"I will do everything in my power to help the black pikmin. This I give you my word as a warrior."
5731Zeromus chuckled.
5732"Well, I couldn't ask for anything better. Soon you will awaken."
5733I paused.
5734"So...I'm not dead?"
5735"Physically, yes. But you'll soon wake up back in the temple. I will send someone for you."
5736The figure began to grow dim.

5765
5766I thirst for blood. Wandering throughout these forsaken mountains, I had seen nor heard any sign of sentient life. It was frustrating, constantly being cajoled on by the spirits to continue, but I began to seriously doubt my situation.
5767
5768That is, until a few hours ago. Out on the distant horizon, I saw lights, which meant civilization. The spirits told me that one of their prime targets, an individual called "Flare", would be traveling to that place, and it would be my objective to dispatch of him. For what reason, I did not know why, but the spirits insisted that he had wronged many in his earlier life, and I assumed that was a plausible explanation. So I set out, as fast as I could.
5769
5770Thanks to my spectral properties, I covered an immense amount of ground in a rather sort period, and suffered little fatigue. I took comfort in the growing darkness... the more I could hide in, the better. The lights of the town grew brighter and brighter... I was close.
5771
5772The voices came back... urging me even further...
5773
5774"Yes... close... sinner within the walls... find... slay... AVENGE!"
5775
5776I flinched just a slightly inwardly, but mentally agreed. I was so close... so very close. The lights seemed even brighter now... I sought out for shadows to hide in, and found a few in the alleys of the area. Slipping in, I was nearly impossible to see with an ordinary eye. Stalking my way closer and closer, the spirits urged me on more and more... I was very close. This "Flare" would be slain very quickly. Hiding in the darkness... I waited.
5777
5778It must have been minutes, second or hours until I saw my target's face... it was youthful, yet the eyes bore a deep pain. It was a face, something I lacked. And I felt jealous for what he had, and what I did not. He was apparently unaware of my prescence... though I did catch hints of his eyes shifting back and forth. But no matter. He would die, regardless, all for the glory of vengeance.
5779
5780Readying myself, I held up my weapon. And then, I leapt out of the shadows...

5790This town was truly phenominal. At such a high altitude, it was a wonder it could even sustain life. Apparently, the hippies had manage to conjure a simple spell that lowered the air pressure up here, but still... wow.
5791
5792It was a simple place, full of warmth and kindness. The people were friendly, and had no animosity towards us, despite our differences. This place was a haven... a somewhat pseudo-Zion.
5793
5794I was strolling around the town. Apparently, some of the others in our party (Glowy especially) had scared some of the townspeople, and were being kept inside while Talis was out somewhere doing some sort of work. I was alone essentially, but I did not feel it. This place seemed almost like... home.
5795
5796But it felt odd. Like I was being watched. Not by that bastard god's lackeys... but rather something more... vicious. The warmth in the atmosphere felt as if it dissolved... and was replaced by a terrifying cold. Grabbing my staff instinctively, I stopped for a moment, surveying the surroundings. Hearing a whistling in the air, growing louder and louder, I leapt backwards... just in time to see the ground in front of me being torn up with violent force.
5797
5798Something stood before me. It was a huge armored being, carrying a wickedly curved blade... but it seemed like a phantom, constantly fading in and out of sight. But it eyes terrified me... they burned with an incredible intensity, one that bored straight into my mind.
5799
5800It charged me down, blade spinning. Raising my staff, I barely parried one blow, then another. Jumping forward, I swung a vicious blow for the creature's head, but it seemed to slip straight through it. It then rose up its weapon in a powerful uppercut, and I quickly brought my staff down to counter it. The force of the blow sent me flying.
5801
5802Landing on my feet, I stepped down into a defensive stance. Oddly, I remembered Clade's critique of my stance on the boat a few days ago... but it felt like an eternity. Setting my feet down evenly, covering all possible ground, I readied myself for the monstrous assassin... and began to flow mana into my staff.
5803
5804He appeared to blur out of nowhere. Ducking, I dodged a blow that would have decapitated me in an instant. Rolling aside, I swung upwards, and heard the sound of wood against metal as my own blow was parried. Jumping to my feet, I dodged and blocked a barrage of attacks, all the whilke pumping more and more energy into my staff. It was almost finished...
5805
5806Coming in for another strike, the assassin appeared to be rushing for my right flank. Readying myself to block his blow, he instead shifted in a blur to the left, and brought his blade down in a diagonal slash. Leaping backwards, I gasped as the blade ripped open my side, barely missing my entrails. Clutching my bleeding waist, I pumped in the last bit of mana necessary for the spell, and strained to keep the energy stable.
5807
5808The creature came for what seemed to be the killing blow. Raising its weapon high, it blurred in and out of sight, and I barely kept sight of it. Sensing its energies, I managed to keep up with it, and saw it the instant before it struck. Riasing my staff to parry the potentially lethal blow, I released my concentration of the energy within the staff. With an explosion, dual dragons of flame erupted from the sides of the staff, winding down toward its end. They both impacted simaltaneously, and transformed into a raging vortex of flame. The beast was consumed, as I barely held the staff in my hands. The tornado of flame piledrived it into the wall, and finally dissipated. What was left was nothing but charred wood...

5838
5839Curse you...
5840Curses do nothing as you well know.
5841
5842That set my off guard. I hadn't felt him probe those memories. My short term memory must have been what he was attacking directly. But to my dismay, he wasn't, and I realized with a sinking sensation that I had just let him in. Doubt is the strongest weapon.
5843
5844I did my best to recall the true memories, and shifting my mind, drove him out, wrapping my conciousness about his to envolope his. Constraining it, I... tied it up.
5845
5846He promptly battered in all directions, but I took the moment to relax in the full control.
5847

5853
5854"...How?"
5855
5856"Barely." We were talking with simple words, it was all we needed. I had even glimped pieces of Glowy's memories within Gylik... and I had the sense that as Gylik and I forever battled, he was watching... within my mind.
5857
5858"Age brings power... and I could never do as you did."
5859
5860"Looks like I've slipt in my FOOLING YOUS UP GOOD." I growled mentally and launched a full frontal attack at Gylik, and he simply chucked, the sound vibrating throughout my skull, as he nimbly dodged, before retreating to his own parisitic body, keeping a firm lock on my speech.
5861

I'll be protecting the troops with my spells, so their spellcasters cannot just drop them like flies. With your protecting me, no one will have any chance of taking me out so their mages can lay waste to our troops."
5904
5905"But they're disorganized. How can they fight the enemy if they're disorganized?"
5906
5907"The enemy is mostly Pink Pikmin. They cannot fight well. Our troops are powerful warriors, they are pacifists. Even if they have backup from other colors, what chance do they have?"
5908
5909"A good one, if their numbers are great enough and they are organized. An old saying I once heard: A pack of lions lead by a sheep will have no chance against a flock of sheep lead by a lion."
5910
5911"That may be... but in this case, I am the lion. Besides, we'll be in the fray as well, and our skills are likely to far outweigh whatever advantages they may have. And in any case, the disorganized look is just that. Looks only. To keep them off guard. When we attack, you'll see organization."

5941"...They received word of an invasion force at the base of this mountain, guardian."
5942
5943The voice belonged to a thin, weak-looking figure who stood off a ways, hidden in shadows. The target of the statement, a fairly large pink pikmin, situated in one corner of the room, sat tranquilly on a stool, staring idly off into space. He appeared at peace, and looked as if he were thinking of many, many things.
5944
5945The guardian was silent for a long moment, yet the figure showed no sign of impatience, and stood there, in the stifling hot pseudo-dwelling, waiting for an answer.
5946
5947It came abruptly, startling the figure, "I do not see a reason why I should take any action. My priorities are not to defend the village at the foot of the mountain. They are elsewhere. The Sentinels can defend the village with ease. Besides, the Black pikmin are plagued with their arrogance - they severely underestimate the Sentinel's power. They will fall. Unceremoniously, if I must say."
5948
5949The figure acknowledged this thoughtfully, carefully planning his next words. However, a simple thought struck his head, "Guardian, when you were chosen, do you not remember what your duties, which were clearly said out to you, were?"
5950
5951The guardian made some semblance of a smile as he recalled the memory. A rather drawn-out process, though, for the very ways his mind functioned differed greatly from regular mortals...
5952
5953A long silence followed. The figure shifted nervously, as time was drawing thin. He stared at the statue-like figure that was the guardian, watching him as something seemed to spark within his eyes...
5954
5955"...Yes, I remember," the Guardian finally responded, after what seemed to be eternity, "But... why is it you ask?"
5956
5957The figure let the perma-slight-smile on his face expand slightly. "Guardian, you are not guardian of this tomb. You are not the guardian of the Svetlana, the Itzal, or even the Empyrean. You guard more than that.
5958
5959"You are the guardian of this mountain. You remember how you are bound by your duties. By this, you have no choice in this matter either way.
5960
5961"Now then, I must go. Typheim, I leave matters in your hand."
5962
5963The figure then turned, and then the Guardian saw nothing more of him.
5964
5965The Guardian frowned. As usual, the God's authority overruled all. But he was not one to question. If what the priest said was right, then he would go.
5966
5967He picked up his weapon, and left.

5974
5975As I ran, many things escaped my mind. In my excitement, I rather lost it.
5976
5977But onto the most important point, I had forgotten that the village had sentinels on guard and traps stationed around the outside in a complex formation.
5978
5979~~~
5980
5981"Alright, alright! You can let it go now! Just let it go, geeze, I said we're sorry-"
5982
5983The green guard was promptly silenced by me irritably throwing a pellet right at his face. As he silently nursed his bruise, trying to look unnoticed, the other green guard turned to me rather shakily, and grinned nervously.
5984
5985"Ahah... You'll... P-please, forgive us. Er, you do know that we must take precautions like these so that our village is protected. I m-mean, you must understand..."
5986
5987As I listened to the guard ramble on, I simply sat there dumbly. As it turned out, once I stepped over a certain point, the sentinels released a barrage of arrows (Should I mention that I saw a pellet tossed in my direction along with several arrows?) on me, accompanied with the pressure-activated bomb rocks in the ground exploding underneath me as I frantically tried to dodge everything. Simply put, hell was tossed in my direction, leaving me with some nasty injuries. Oh, no, they weren't serious by any means, it's just that I nearly died.
5988
5989Hiss hiss spatter spatter.
5990
5991The guard, was still nervously prattling on, constantly speaking of "forgiveness" and "oh please you must understand" etc etc... I began to lose my patience. A second later I unceremoniously chucked a nearby healing staff at his head, and, sighing, stood up, to leave the small tent I was in. I pushed the flaps out of the way, feeling rattled as a blast of cool, mountain air convulsed around me suddenly. Pausing briefly, I examined my now-bandaged and treated-to wounds: bruises, cuts, cuts, more bruises... Ooh, I didn't that notice that burn over there...
5992
5993After a few minutes of standing there, mumbling to myself irritably, my annoyance slowly began to simmer down.
5994
5995Bah, screw that thought.
5996
5997I was about to turn to vent my anger somewhere, until a hand touched my shoulder. Alarmed, I turned to face my unwanted guest, only to find the eyes of the Elder boring into my own.
5998
5999"Clade, it has been a while."
6000
6001"Elder!" I exclaimed. I briefly bowed, as to adhere to the rules of tradition and respect around here. I looked up, studying the Elder. The title "Elder" wasn't literal. It was only given to those of a high, influential position in the village, the one with the greatest wisdom. In fact, the Elder didn't look very elderly at all - he stood straight-backed, throwing an aura of regality around him, and his eyes bore much strength and pride within them. A lamp was in one hand, while a ceremonial staff was held in the other.
6002
6003... I just realized that I should of sensed the Elder coming from a mile away, with a lamp in pitch blackness. The frustration must be getting to me.
6004
6005The Elder smiled, "Come. We have some time for pleasantries, but not much. Quickly, this way - there is something urgent I must tell you."
6006
6007The Elder said nothing else before turning briskly, and walking down the path that went through the village, his lamp swinging back in forth.
6008
6009Puzzled, I ran after him, while being mindful of my injuries.

6029A messenger was sent to our allies, everywhere we could find them. Hell, we even sent a few to the Kingdoms in the other realm. Telling them that the Black Armies have returned and to prepare for combat.
6030
6031"For the love of ZEROMUS SOMEONE GET IN HERE!" I'm not in the mood for these thrice-damned hippies. I swear, if I hear one more rant on peace and love I am going to slit someones throat...
6032
6033DAMNIT! No one is coming!
6034
6035If you want something done right... An older Red pikmin in the way, obviously new, trying to show off his rank... "As your superior officer, I order you to get the HELL out of my way!"
6036
6037Farther down the hall, inspecting the reports, "WHERE THE HELL ARE THE REINFORCEMENTS I WAS PROMISED?!"
6038

6140
6141"SHUT UP! Get organized, I'll take care of this annoyance!"

6206
6207I ready the crossbow, firing into the mass of, what seemed to be, well, ZOMBIEISH, troops. Its like they don't have a mind of their own... like they're being told what to do... Well, if everyone is thinking alike, then someone isn't thinking...
6208
6209Again and again, firing into the waves of the near-undead. Infantry rapidly running in and out, almost gurilla tactics, Mages desperately trying to contain both their mages, and soften the blows of their giant champion.
6210
6211****! Out of ammo... For the love of SYLPHA! Well, good thing I have this scimitar...
6212
6213I run into combat, joining my brethren. It doesn't matter what they are if they fight along side of me... Red, blue, green, yellow, purple, pink... As long as they fight with me, they are my brethren.
6214
6215One of their larger brutes, easily a brute by the amount of drool flowing from his mouth, and I tangle. He brings his flail up, I block it with the scimitar, the flail breaking. This can't be an ordinary scimitar... it even feels evil.
6216
6217With a warscream, I bring the scimitar into his chest, twisting it, making sure whatever passed as a heart would never beat again. Looking into his eyes as he falls, I release the blade from his interior, and jump into battle again.
6218
6219****! Shouldn't have jumped...
6220
6221I'm trapped between two more brutes... large this time. One hasn't seemed to notice me. Why do these heathens have to be so tall?!
6222
6223I feel his blade rip across my skin, letting go of my scimitar in pain, "I'LL HAVE YOU FOR THAT!" With a snarl, I slowly sink my teeth into his fleshy neck, slowly ripping it apart, the black releasing me, falling back upon its comrade.
6224
6225Retrieving the scimitar, I also take his blade, it'll serve as a memento... I sling it unto my back, looking around for more prey, the fighting continueing...
6226
6227A lone, tall, black pikmin stands apart from the rest. Must be their own commander... won't even get his hands bloody. Pompus, arrogant, puella...
6228
6229I approach the 'leader' slicing down a few of his troops from the sideline, saving one of my own troops.
6230
6231"AHOY!" I address their commander, scimitar in hand, "How do you like our country? I can tell that you have a hand at gardening. The corpses of your men are going to provide excellent fertilizer!"
6232
6233"Silence, peon. You know not who you insult." It responded, "I am Black Art, and will be the last thing you see before you die."
6234
6235"Oh really? Going to have a friend post a picture of yourself over my deathbed?" I taunt, this commander... won't even get his hands dirty. Shame.
6236
6237"Quite the humor... lets see how you like mine!" I feel... a presence in my head, not mine, like a nail, a nail driving through my skull.
6238
6239I fall to the ground on both knees, trying to dull the pain, "GET OUT OF MY HEAD!" I scream, can't lose focus... he's the cause of pain...
6240
6241In brutal agony, I fling my scimitar at him, a scream erupting. The pain stops, I run back into the crowd, taking one last look, the scimitar lobbed in his left leg, black blood flowing from it, not a lethal or mortal wound, but enough to break his concentration. Its not worth going back for...
6242
6243I draw the sword I took, this'll have to do...

6362I pull the scimitar from my leg, then use a healing spell to seal the wound and fade the scar. Hopefully, my slave can rid me of it... I pull my arm back to toss it... and it releases a pulse of energy... demonic energy... I turn my head slowly to look at it. The sword radiates a dark aura... and then I see the runes etched into the handle. They spell out...
6363
6364"Dhade?! This was... Dhade's weapon?"
6365
6366Amazing! I hold the weapon of our leader! No wonder he was such a warrior in his time, this thing radiates pure evil! But how did a Pink Pikmin get a hold of it? I'd have to have it cleansed of their filth... Enough of this. The Pink Pikmin that threw it at me is no longer in sight, and it looks like Slam (The Crawbster) has killed the Empress and is moving on to the Pink Pikmin's troops. He sends a bunch flying with his large claw. He seems to be enjoying himself.
6367
6368'Damnit... Where was Shaodw right there? He should have been there to protect me! SHADOW! Where are you, damnit!'
6369
6370I'm answered by a ferocious roar, which causes the enemy's troops to cower and my troops to suddenly kick it up (That's Shadow's Battle Roar), and a whole bunch of the enemy troops to suddenly be sent flying into the air. A path to the spot suddenly clears, and I can see Shadow, fighting like a raging beast.

6377
6378'Shadow... I see that Pink you're looking at. The bastard harmed me... I have reason to believe he's one of their leaders... KILL HIM!'

6410"ISSUE IS NOT OF TODAY'S SCHEDULE. YOU ARE."
6411
6412I was quickly forced into the ground by NiteNite's power. I pushed him with PSI, and flew him around in the air, I was lifted too, and both of us were flying around, striking the ground multiple times. Both of us were enduring, pressing on until one of us stood. I started concentrating for an attack, and NiteNite dragged me around in a circle. I quickly emitted psychonetic waves. NiteNite diverted his gaze, discontinuing dragging me. I leaped up and hit him with my cap. He was disorientated, and I prepared a special techinique.
6413
6414"PSI Sword!" I yelled. I green, enigmatic sword appeared from air and dust, and started slashing ferociously on the hapless NiteNite.
6415
6416"PSI Pierce..." I heard him mutter. Then a blue spike of pure psychic power sprang at me, and hit me in the cap. My mind stung, and I fell the long fall back to the ground. I wriggled around, helplessly, while NiteNite glided back to my side. Barely, I could make out his words to me. "PSI Pierce!" He continued a stream of blue energy onto me.
6417
6418Hee hee hee! Squirm, brother, continue in your feeble attempts to try and escape my power. I'll tell you right off it's useless, but where's the fun in going down with no resistance?

6424"PSI... Limbo..."
6425
6426"WHA--" Was all he could say before a line of energy hit him in the back of the head, and hit him back and forth, rhythmatically. "PSI Sheild!" His head was protected by a psychic sheild. "NITENITE FELL FOR PSI LIMBO! WORTHLESS TECHNIQUE FTL."
6427
6428Hey, where'd you go? How'd you...
6429
6430"MOTHERPROSTITUTIONING DISTRACTIONS!"
6431
6432I was safe, in a tree. Escaping? I think not. I leaped out of the tree, right over NiteNite. "PSI Beam!" A beam fired out of my cap and into the back of his. "PSI Lock!" I finally secured down NiteNite.
6433
6434"NITENITE WANT AWAY."
6435
6436"Too bad. When I'm far enough, you can move again."
6437
6438I left NiteNite babbling curses, and headed back for the Pink Village.

6460Ramming into the aggrivated Black, I knocked him down. Because of my angle and his speed, he actually flew a decent distance.
6461
6462I was, as far as any Pikmin was concerned, big. The crawbuster was still way out of my league, but this Black I could take. I think.
6463
6464The fur like grass that was all over my body made me look twice as big, and I was already twice my normal size. Growling, I ran after the Black, barely noticing the hasty retreat of the Pink Sentinal, who I had been ordered to protect.
6465
6466Alright, you. Explain, now. Why is he so important.
6467All in due time. You will not regret this, spokesmin of the beast.
6468Unless you decide I should regret it.
6469I thought you didn't believe in gods.
6470
6471The thorn like claws I now possessed made a shot at the Black but his sword moved into the way, making it a move I almost instantly... but I didn't regret it.
6472
6473The god had spoken true.
6474
6475I didn't suffer from regret.
6476
6477Continueing the extension of my giant paw against the blade, the gods power envolped me, healing me as I pushed out, the Black just stopping the blade from digging into his own chest.
6478
6479The Black looked at me with pure venom, and released his onslaught.

6493message detail A black pikmin rushes for the gate village, eager to prove himself. To make the first strike upon the village.
6494
6495But alas, he shall not pass.
6496
6497Typheim tossed his charred corpse aside, and waited. He watched the battle with a rather bemused expression on his face. He very much had the power within him to easily finish this battle, but he would prefer not to. As of now, they threatened not the mountain - just the sentinels. As long as they do not take foot upon the actual mountain, he saw no reason to enter the fray.
6498
6499Another reason to do so was that he did not like violence very much.
6500
6501Time passed, but none came his way. Typheim was right. The Sentinels were quite fine on their own, without his assistance.
6502
6503Typheim even went as far as to sit on the ground in wait, but was interrupted by a small mob of black pikmin - 4 or so strong - charging his way. Without so much as giving it a thought, he, in a casual fashion, twirled his blade, and as he did, skimmed it along the ground, launching 3 blasts of lightning at them, each skating along the ground right towards the black pikmin.
6504
6505Two of them hit their mark, effectively downing two of them. The other two raised their lances and tried to skewer Typheim, but he brushed aside both blows with a simple twirl his blade, and cut down both assailants with another twirl.
6506
6507Again, he waited.
6508
6509At one point, several mages closed in on his position. Needless to say, Typheim barely even bothered with them.
6510
6511Then again, a few more black pikmin. Cut down and electrified, each one.
6512
6513At one point, a ballistae bolt zoned in on his position, but he simply side-stepped out of the way.
6514
6515Was he invisible? Typheim was surprised. Since he was right at the gates, he would expect far more pikmin to close in on his position, even with the Sentinels doing so well...
6516
6517Rather suspicious, for reasons not exactly known to himself, he crouched into a more battle-ready position, as opposed to the rigid, casual stance he had stood in earlier.

6588The world came back in a flash. I bolted up and began to wave my head frantically back and forth. I was in some sort of bed... the room was badly lit, but warm. There was no sign of the Spectre... but I still kept my guard up. Looking around, my gaze came upon an old grizzled pikmin, obviously, a pink.
6589
6590"Ah, you're awake," he said, "I had found you in the road with pretty much your entrails leaking out... but don't worry, you're all patched up. The last fringes of my healing magic should be doing its work."
6591
6592I removed the quilt over the lower half of my body, and discovered a tight bandage over my abdomen. It felt, albeit sore, but it was much better than when the Spectre hewed me open. Jesus that hurt...
6593
6594"Where... old man, is the small group of foreigners who recently came to this place?"
6595
6596The elder furrowed his brow.
6597
6598"I cannot be sure of this... but apparently, a large contingent of hostile forces had approached this village. Our secret defense society, the Sentinels, went out to engage them. I would not be surprised if your friend's were at the front lines. They all had the look of seasoned warriors."
6599
6600I snapped out of bed, almost hysterical.
6601
6602"You mean to say my friends are nose to nose with enemy foes, while I rest here in idle stupidity? Curse me for my ignorance! Where are my clothes old man?"
6603
6604"Look... your wounds are fresh. Despite my magic, I do not advise-"
6605
6606"JUST GIVE ME MY CLOTHES."
6607
6608"... Fine. Your clothes are in a drawer to the direct right of you. I also cleaned the blood off of them, if you'd care."
6609
6610Leaping out, I quickly jumped in my attire and began to run out the door, when suddenly, once again, I was interrupted by the old man.
6611
6612"Wait! I believe you've forgotten something important!"
6613
6614He held my staff. Tossing it, I caught it with one hand, and sped out the door.
6615
6616"Thank you for your kindness old man!" I yelled over my shoulder, as I faded into the distance. The old man leaned against the door frame, with a wry smile. And then, he disappeared.
6617
6618===
6619
6620According to my senses, the battle was occurring directly to the south of my position... further down the mountain. Sprinting as fast I could, I did my best to not trip on the many rocks and potholes on the way down. Hearing the sounds of fighting and screams of the dead, I knew I was close... if only I could go faster.
6621
6622From the distance, I saw no sight of Glowy. I only noticed Rune, who currently had shape-shifted into a bestial shape that was causing mass havoc to the enemy numbers. That, and the scores of black and various colored pikmin dying every moment. In fact, right in front of me, I saw a pair of pink pikmin and a blue pikmin scream as a spine erupted through their chests, impaling them and slowly killing them. With a violent movement, the giant thing whipped away from sight, sending its dead victims flying.
6623
6624Hearing a whizzing sound below me, I jumped to the side, barely avoiding the same fate that had befell the pikmin before me. Seeing the object retreat, I sought out its source... and laid upon a somewhat familiar face.

6633
6634Shadow seemed annoyed.
6635
6636"Of course I have, you stupid fool. You people were so trusting... that is, to your own demise."
6637
6638He seemed different from the Shadow I had known previously... he appeared to have gone insane with his lust for battle. He carried claws capable of hewing a normal person in two, and that tail of his... it was massive, constantly whipping around, as if it had a life of its own. And his eyes... cold and malevolent...
6639
6640Seeing his tail spike into the ground, I quickly leapt backwards. The thing came out, and barely graved my cheek. It stung, and I cringed visibly as drops of blood flowed down my face.
6641
6642“Your sensitivity often gets the better of you Flare… your belief that good exists in all… pathetic.”
6643
6644His tail once again whipped forward. It caught me in the stomach, knocking the wind out of me. I gasped in pain. Definitely cracked a rib there. Growling just a little bit, I faced my eyes toward Shadow. Now I was pissed. Very pissed off.
6645
6646“You bastard… I swear I’ll beat your smug face into the ground…”
6647
6648Grabbing my staff, I rushed forward with all possible speed. His tail whipped to intercept me, but I strafed to the right, dodging the thing while seeing it tear up stone. Leaping into the air, I raised my staff over my head, as it glowed with unstable energies. Bring it down, met sudden resistance. Shadow had brought up one of his hands to stop the momentum of the attack entirely. He smirked.
6649
6650“Do you simply believe a piece of wood is even capable of scratching me?”
6651
6652Despite this obvious advantage, I smirked back, and replied just as arrogantly.
6653
6654“No sir… but this can.”
6655
6656A tornado of flame erupted from the base of the staff. Pulling his hand away from the sudden heat, I took this opportunity to plunge the base of my staff into his stomach. With tremendous force, I slammed Shadow into the ground. Leaping back, I appreciatively noticed the large black spot on the center of his armor. Yep, I definitely pissed him off now. Pulling himself up, he snarled as bits and pieces of earth fell off him.
6657
6658“You do not understand what sort of mess you are getting yourself into little one… I will RIP YOU LIMB FROM LIMB!”
6659
6660Suddenly, Shadow began to glow an unhealthy color, as his eyes took on a reddish tinge. He began to slowly grow… slowly becoming more and more bulky… He appeared to be like a massive juggernaut… the embodiment of rage. Closing his claws into a fist, I heard knuckles crack. Holy gods am I in deep sh-.
6661
6662Shadow charged at me with surprising agility. Raising a massive clawed hand, he brought it down in a massive diagonal slash. Rolling to the right, I felt wind as the claws ripped up pieces of land. Shadow roared, all reason lost, eyes blinded by rage. And I cursed, half pissing my pants.

6674Despite the fact that I was just about ****ing my pants, I managed to launch a wry comeback.
6675
6676“You know, I find it surprising that you find the odor of bodiless heads rather delectable. Perhaps you like to defecate on yourself also just to enjoy the scent?”
6677
6678Shadow responded by looking extremely confused for a moment, then suddenly realizing it, then suddenly getting even more pissed, and suddenly roaring with a complete lack of coherency. Despite my probability of being pounded into a mush, I chuckled inside. Ah, psychological abuse.
6679
6680Charging forwards for perhaps what would be the final blow, Shadow raised both claws, as to rip me into many tiny pieces with a single sweep. I chuckled, slowly noting the large amount of energy I had been secretively charging. Moments before being torn in pieces, I rolled underneath his claws, placed my other hand on the opposite end of the staff, and leaped up, driving the side of the staff into the fiend’s chin. On contact, an explosion of flame resulted once again, along with the company of two rambunctious flame dragons. You just got Sempa-Vortex’d hoe. Shadow flew backwards, and landed with a heavy thud on some rocks. He groaned, and I noticed how he began to shrink back to his normal size… back into sanity.
6681
6682Now, with that was done, I had to go find the others…

6691Shadow had attempted to lay waste to the Pink leader... but had been interrupted by a Red Pikmin. I growled in rage. Can none of them do ANYTHING right? I reached out to Shadow.
6692
6693"Infuriate!"
6694
6695Shadow got up, just as hell-bent on destruction as before. But I didn't think that was enough...
6696
6697"Warp Mind..."
6698
6699This action was something that would certainly send Shadow into a berserk fury... Let us see how this plays out.
6700
6701Shadow
6702
6703Damn that Flare! How had I forgotten about his fire capabilities?! No matter... Black Art has already gotten me back into the mix. But it seems he likes to push me to my limit...
6704
6705Something tingles my nose. I take a deep breath of air... and my pupils shrink. Ozone. The smell of lightning. Subconciously, I know it is Black Art's doing... But the part of my mind in control really doesn't care. Ozone is a scent I associate with Dusk... and the scent drives me to the brink of insanity.
6706
6707I jump up and release another Battle Roar... and then...
6708
6709"BERSERK FURY!"
6710
6711I bulk up considerably, and am surrounded by a demonic red glow. My sliced eye opens, and regains sight, if only for the duration of this skill. Dusk... Ozone, the smell of Dusk... KILL!
6712
6713Driven absolutely mad by the scent, I start looking for the source, cutting down everything in my path except those I recognize as my allies, however vaguely. I come upon Flare again... this time, he shall NOT trick me.
6714
6715"Hatred!"
6716
6717I bulk up further, and my hands glow red with rage. Let's see if Mr. Happy-Go-Lucky can survive THIS! He turns toward me, just in time to be socked in the face. In a second, I'm on top of him, stabbing at him with my claws. He's slippery, though, and slips out from under me. He attempts another taunt... but I am too far gone to care and merely unleash another Battle Roar at him. This one seems to shake the very planet.
6718
6719"Die die DIE!"
6720
6721He thrusts his staff forward, but I've learned from last time. I change course as flames erupt from his staff, licking my legs. I thrust my tail, spikes extended fully, at him...
6722
6723<Far above the fight>
6724
6725/|\Dusk/|\
6726
6727"Hmm... a major battle... without me? I'm hurt... But no one here is a suitable opponent."
6728
6729Except one, of course. Down below, I spot Shadow. The wounds caused by his attack have already sealed, leaving not a trace, but he still angers me. But he is otherwise engaged at the moment. So, someone else...
6730
6731I look down at the gate to the village... there stands a rather bulky Pikmin Pikmin carrying a rather large weapon. I summon up my blades and smirk. Perhaps he could be a challenge... I turn into a ball of light and fly at him.
6732
6733Black Art
6734
6735Keeping up the semblance of the scent of ozone to Shadow is too hard... I release the illusion. However, he doesn't stop his berserk fury. Strange... he should be confused at the sudden disappearance of the scent...
6736
6737This is proven wrong as I see a light descend from the sky, heading toward the Pink village gate. I recognize that light! Dusk... Dusk is here? Shadow will go nuts! The scent is good for now, but if he realizes that Dusk is here, he'll abandon the battle and head for him... Best not to let him know.

6739I'll try to be nicer... If you try to be SMARTER.

6744
6745What the hell? I swore that I had beaten Shadow down, but apparently, his vitality had been restored in such a short time. It was indeed unnatural, and most definitely done by means of demonic magic... but who?
6746
6747I barely defended myself against his newly buffed onslaught. Charging my staff once again for a second Sempra-Vortex, he once again came ti hew me in half. Doing the exact thing over eh? He'd learn dearly from his mistake...
6748
6749But, instead, when he brought down both of his claws, they whipped diagonally across. They caught me both in the chest, and I felt an unimaginable pain as the front of my body suffered numerous lacerations. Gasping, I bled openly into the air, with spurts of it spilling onto Shadow's body.
6750
6751I was so very vulnerable. The wounds were not lethal, but dehibilitating. I could not move, and certainly, Shadow's next strike would tear me in two. He roared, and raised his claw once again... and then stopped mid motion.
6752
6753A striking beam of light struck somewhere in the battlefield. Blinded, I covered my eyes... just as Shadow also did so. He roared in fury... and that was when I saw the figure descending down that the beam.
6754
6755He seemed omniprescent... almost like a god. Many of the tired forces stopped fighting to stare in wonder, as if this angel could save them from destruction. He seemed a noble construct, but he was deformed. His wings, unlike the pair prided by seraphims, were rather three. One a bird's, one an angel's, and lastly, one of a demon's. They appeared to symbolize the Heavens, the mortal plane, and Hell itself.
6756
6757And he carried two massive blades, both which crackled with bursts of lightning. They gleamed so noble a color... but I felt somewhat disturbed by their prescence. For I felt something beyond the surface of the being that no one else seemed to notice. A hole of hatred...
6758
6759Shadow just continued to roar, eyes blazing in rage and bloodlust. It was as if he had met this figure before...
6760
6761The figure continued to descend, and upon touching ground, the light beam slowly dissipated. Eyes closed the entire time, it finally opened them, and stared at Shadow. Roaring with the insanity of a berserker, Shadow charged the figure, bowling over black pikmin and other colors alike.
6762
6763But I wondered.
6764
6765"What the hell is going on?"

6777message detail ...I do not like this.
6778
6779Old one, now would be a good time to assist.
6780
6781A ball of light crashed into the ground. Typheim strafed away almost automatically. In one, swift, automatic movement, Typheim slammed the blade upon the being's form, only to have it deflected.
6782
6783Lightning coursed around the being madly, the magical energies flaring up far beyond than any mortal he'd ever seen achieve.
6784
6785But truly, did it matter?
6786
6787Magic did not bother him.
6788
6789The demi-god's tactics of intimidation - he found them amusing. Roaring into the sky, filled with might. Typheim himself never found a reason for displaying his power.
6790
6791In one swift movement, he was up at the being's face, and socked him without warning. And the next second, he had strafed the clumsily performed counter-attack that had followed.
6792
6793Words followed, but they did not matter to Typheim. The demi-god rushed him, eyes lusting for battle. A flurry of slashes, each one with stunning force behind them, came Typheim's way. With expert precision, Typheim deflected each and every blow, effectively blocking by knocking each slash to the side with a twirl of his blades.
6794
6795Then without any given warning, Typheim drove his blade into the ground, causing an explosion of lightning. He leaped back, waiting for the dust to clear...
6796
6797A mighty roar was let out, with words mixed into them, and a great rush of magical energy followed. Typheim crouched into a battle-ready stance, but not to prepare for what was currently headed his way, but for what was to follow...
6798
6799And so it did. A great rush of electricital magic passed him by, like a wonderful breeze to him, tearing through the earth as it did. Then the demi-god followed, swords at ready.
6800
6801Slash at this point, twirl at this angle. Vertical slash by opposition, twirl at this angle, twist, change path and angle at which the blades travel to knock away the next slash. It all went through his mind like an automation. He did not think of his opponent and the danger he posed - merely on the fight at hand.
6802
6803This process of thinking was interrupted when a violent whiplash stung Typheim's back. Minor drawback's, but a quick recovery was necessary, else he be left vulnerable to another blow.
6804
6805And so he suffered the consequences.
6806
6807He felt the pain of a blade skimming across his shoulder, leaving a great scar. But not enough to impede his fighting ability. He could still fight.
6808
6809Typheim countered violently. He twirled his blade with speed that generated small gusts around him. He spun his body into the momentum, fluidly moving and twirling the dangerous weapon around himself, and further increasing it's lethality with the combined momentum of the spinning weapon and himself. To the eye, it was a graceful, fluid movement - a dance, one could say. But each time he made contact with the demi-god, each blow was supported by such force that the other demi-god was slowly weakening under the blinding speed of attacks...
6810
6811The demi-god tried to attack, but the momentum of Typheim's weapon drove the demi-god's sword into the ground, forcing him to relinquish the weapon else he face great injury...
6812
6813In one, fluid movement, using the momentum of his spinning to launch himself into a flip, he leaped into the air, and drove his weapon into the ground, right at the demi-god.
6814
6815However, the attack, while leaving a great crater in its wake upon impact, missed its mark - the demi-god side-stepped it easily.
6816
6817Typheim knew it, and the demi-god knew it - Typheim was vulnerable at this precise moment. The demi-god launched himself at Typheim, great fury in his eyes. Typheim let out a small sigh escape his lips as pain followed...
6818

6836The demi-god, breathing heavily, raised his weapon for the final blow, but not before letting out one last comment of the battle.
6837
6838"...A challenge indeed. But you shall learn to never to trifle in the matters of one such as me. I fare you goodbye, in which you will disappear.

6867
6868You are not to die yet. Stay there for the time being. The gods have allowed me one interference. But only because you are the guardian. The Empyrean and I have convinced them to grant you salvation.
6869
6870However, this is the most I can do before you continue the fight. I will show this demi-god...
6871
6872... A fair judgement for the sins he has committed.
6873
6874~~~
6875
6876"Excuse me..."
6877
6878Dusk started suddenly in his shock. Not a second had passed while in Beyond.
6879
6880The rogue demi-god turned his head in the direction of the speaker, growling in anger.
6881
6882"You..." he said with venom. No doubt he was frustrated by the fact that his prey had vanished.
6883
6884The old pikmin gave a wry smile, resting his hands on his ebony walking stick, "You are Windseeker, are you not?"
6885
6886Dusk, suddenly relinquishing his anger, let a smirk come across his face. He pulled his weapon out of the ground, where Typheim should have been, blood flowing from his corpse like a river. He rested the weapon upon his shoulder, and stood up straight. His body was covered in bruises, and no doubt there was at least one fracture within his body, judging from the way he gingerly carried himself.
6887
6888Typheim had outdone himself this time. The old pikmin may as well mentally applaud him.
6889
6890"Oh? I see mortal has come to gawk before my presence, has he not? And a pink pikmin, nevertheless. Religious fanatics to the end, I see." At the last words, he pointed his weapon at me.
6891
6892The old pikmin continued to smile, "Ah, well, you see, I had - "
6893
6894Dusk cut him off, not caring what phrase would follow, "I see. You wish to stand before my presence, even if it means death. Meeting a demi-god will fulfill your purpose in life, will it?" Dusk readied his weapon, "Then so be it. I need a little cool-down after the fight with this pikmin. Well, unfinished fight, had I known where he..."
6895
6896Dusk trailed off, stopping at the cheerful, knowing smile upon the old pikmin's face. He had not flinched at all when Dusk made a move to attack. But it wasn't this that disturbed him...

6902

6904
6905However, Dusk knew not of the presence in his mind, unaware that his mind was being tipped into irrational fury.
6906
6907The old pikmin raised his hand.
6908

6911You may fight again now. Your physical body has manifested itself within this plane. I will alter the nerve patterns and increase your momentum, and hold you there until you are brought back into the stream of time. Give him a nasty blow to the face, if you will.

6926Suddenly, Dusk found himself unable to move, suspended in mid-strike. The air seemed to bend before him. The old pikmin simply seemed to vanish into the swirling vortex before him. Words seemed to slur. Dusk felt a bead of sweat trail down his temple.
6927
6928And then, there was nothing.

6947The very battle seemed to slow down, as thunderclouds came across the sky. Dusk tried to summon his power, to control the clouds. To go as far as to strike lightning upon himself, as long as it could only remove him from this state of stillness.
6948
6949But even as lightning coursed around him, the skies above would not respond to his mental commands.
6950
6951'They are not yours to command.

6954

6956

7028Okay... I mixed up who had gotten Dhade's sword. GM made me make the post in a rush.
7029
7030How long a tail? On a less than an inch tall Pikmin? Use relative measures. I'll just assume that Shadow is supposed to be 6', but the tail is STILL unproportinal. Fiction, so whatever. As a counter, Rune is being helped by the God of Regret. More on that later.
7031
7032Rune is in his own beast shift, and is physically twice the size of any Pikmin, with grass acting as fur, making him look twice as big as twice as big. I said all this in my post. So, he'd actually look really big, be big, and be strong with his own thorn like claws. Actually sounds like an even match, especially since the God of Regret, a character that I have full permission from GM, is healing and helping Rune in the battle.

7042Gah, what the hell? This mortal possesses more power than I'd originally thought... And he holds control of lightning as well, much the same as myself. But what was it that brought the winds and lightning out of my control, even for such a short time? I floated back up into the air and, with a single flap of all of my wings, was blazing back toward the Pink Pikmin. As I approached, I summoned my other sword back to my hand, the Guardian having kept his attack up with such speed as to stop even me from pulling it from the ground.
7043
7044Yes, I knew what he was now. I'd heard of a Pink Pikmin unlike any other, one that guarded Mt. Ordeals. I'd never imagined he had such strength, though. When I reached him again, I stopped a good bit away from him, out of his weapon's range.
7045
7046"I must admit, it has been some time since I've had such a worthy opponent. Your skills and strength far surpass that of any other I've ever fought, save one, of course."
7047
7048The Guardian raised an eyebrow, very slightly. He didn't seem much affected by that going on around him.
7049
7050"Yes... Do you think I would recieve two blades such as these for my place as Windseeker? Of course not. I had to kill another one to get my hands on this. Wasn't easy... He presented a tough challenge, but in the end, I emerged victorious. And I've been looking for a challenge since then... You'll do fine!"
7051
7052And I charged again...
7053
7054"DIE!"
7055
7056Only to be blindsided by something moving very fast, and was very angry...
7057
7058Shadow
7059
7060I grinned sadistically. Flare was down for the count, and now I had him at my mercy. I licked the blood from my gauntlet claws and rose one to finish him. I plunged the claw at him...
7061
7062And stopped about a fraction of an inch away.
7063
7064Flare had his eyes closed. He slowly opened them and looked in surprise at how close they were, and with a bit of confusion as to why they weren't currently through his head.
7065
7066I sampled the air's scent. In my subconcious, I drew a difference between this and what Black Art had tricked my mind into believing.
7067
7068This time, the ozone was clearly there for real. And the amounts spiked and dropped, rather quickly. Thunder boomed in the distance. Yet the sky had been pretty clear a moment before... there could be only one reason. I moved my claw away from Flare's face and turned toward the source of the scent.
7069
7070"I'll deal with you later, Flare... for now, I have much bigger fish to fry!"
7071
7072I took off at subsonic speeds, heading toward the source of my rage.

7076I noticed Shadow heading away from the main battle. I sighed. He must have realized Dusk was here.
7077
7078"Damnit... This complicates things a bit."
7079
7080Just then, however, a loud screech pierced the air, and I looked to see that Slam had finally finished off the Empress Bulblax. Without a large target to fight against, he turned toward the rest of the enemy army. I smirked. Now it gets interesting...
7081
7082'Slam, attack the enemy! Any Pikmin that is not Black is your foe, slay them all!'
7083
7084Slam screeched again and rolled into a ball, then headed toward a large portion of the enemy army. Ah, such sweet destruction...
7085
7086Shadow
7087
7088As I approached the village gate, I drew another difference in the scent of the air. One source was definately Dusk. The other source of ozone, however, had some subtle differences... As I approached, I saw the reason was that there was not only Dusk, but another, wielding a weapon sparking with lightning. Both of them were bruised and scratched. Brilliant... I get to kick the bastard while he's down. Just as he did to me...
7089
7090"DIE!"

7136message detail Rune fell out of the timeline. We'll leave it at that. He WAS fighting Shadow, it just got weird it seems, due to a lack of communication on my part. Let's just say that Rune bashed Shadow on his side when Shadow was going after the Pink Sentinal, knocking him a good distance in a fluke/lucky shot, and then Flare fought you.
7137
7138GM and I have plans for the Pink Sentinal... GM's next post as the Pink Sentinal should confirm his Allignment to the God of Regret. All of my characters are alligned to the god of regret now, and now I'd like to send an inviation to ALL of the Parisites and those who are being hosts to the parisites to become alligned to the god of regret.
7139
7140I want the Parisites that cause speech impediments to be alligned to the god of regret, please and thankyou. It's up to you though. My parisite(Gylik) will try to convert your characters, or the god of regret will telepathically contact characters that agree. Let me know if you're open to converting to the religion of regret.

7154He hardly looked through his spell book, but this was an emergency.
7155"Haha, here it is. Teleportation." He said.
7156He concentrated on the image shown, then on where he wanted to go, which was, for practice, right beside him.

7161Two slightly confused black pikmin rushed for him. He teleported and watched the two run into each other.
7162"Haha, I should have looked through that book long ago." He said.
7163The two un-conscious pikmin's weapons started to wiggle, then came flying for him. He teleported and watched the weapons plunge through another unfortunate foe.
7164"That'll teach you." Ubi said.
7165Then he saw Rune fighting Black Art.
7166He teleported over to them.

7179
7180"Right then... See how you like this! Shadow Manipulation!"
7181
7182Their shadows twist, then launch up at them like spears. The two dodge it, though, the bear someone moving fast enough to dodge, the other teleporting anyway. Time to do something about that... I fall backwards... and meld into my own shadow.
7183
7184While in this state, they can't harm me. I move under the teleporting one, eye the book he has, and leap out my my shadow, slicing the book into four pieces with Dhade's scimitar. That done, I dive back into my shadow. I then move over to the bear. He's massive! I jump out of my shadow and slice his flank, flip over him, and fall right back into my own shadow.
7185
7186I then move away from them. Hmm... The bear is pretty leafy... See how he likes this!
7187
7188I hop out of my shadow, point at him, and yell, "BRISNGR!"

7207
7208I was on fire. Fire done with magic. That didn't usually work. But more importantly.
7209
7210Fire. On me.
7211
7212FIRE BAD. I said in my mind to the passive presence of Regret.
7213One of my agents may be able to help you...
7214Oh real- I turned at a rumble, and several grotto's opened up. Water jetted out and a giant jet put me out.
7215
7216And rocketed me into Black Art.
7217
7218Yay.
7219
7220Deciding to make the most of it, I held out my giant paw with the thorn claws out.
7221
7222Now, this might mean something to some, but my flower had taken on a Pink hue by this time. My claws were distinctly white, like an ivory. And, thanks to the burned off grass, I saw purple like vein markings over my body.
7223
7224One of my thorn claws pricked the Black Mage, and the jet proppelled us onwards, Regret healing me and whatever blue mage using the water to propel us faster and faster, the Black doing his best to deal with me, looking as if in great mental focus. More magic. Great.
7225
7226And then that was when we both saw it. The blood of the Black seeped up, tinted white.
7227
7228Poison.
7229
7230The water fell, having lost it's power, the source undoubtable dry now, and I prepared for impact with the ground, landing harshly, giving out the trademark shockwave of a purple.
7231
7232And then the black hit me with the sword.
7233
7234Oblivion was so sweet.
7235
7236~!~Yurt~!~
7237I looked across the battlefield, the ground torn up by the water I had called up, and everything doused by the water when I had let it drop. Rune, the gigantic bear fell back into his normal state as a plain featured Green Pikmin. The Black Pikmin stood over him with a sword in hand, clutching at his chest where Rune had punctured him.
7238
7239He is poisoned.
7240
7241There was nothing I could do now.

7248Making use of each of his servants talents. The Beast used the thought reducing poison I secreted to eliminate the magic of the Black Mage, Black Art, given to the Beast through Regret. Yurt, my host body had used god like levels of magic, undoubtly gifted to him from the God.
7249
7250We three... alligned to the God of Regret.
7251
7252--ENDIT--
7253FOR THE CONFUSED TO MY STRANGE POST OF THE TRIO OF REGRET.
7254
7255Alright. Yurt puts out Rune, then rockets him with a jet of water using Regret's power. Gylik, the parisite that affects minds, must have some kind of thought numbing power. Thought numbing isn't good for magic. So, via God of Regret, Gylik gave thought reducing poison to Rune, who already had posion immunity due to being in the Pink flower shift. God of Regret is also healing Rune as he goes.
7256
7257Right now? Black Art is having some temporary trouble with his magic, Rune is knocked out( with Black Art standing over a knocked out Rune with a sword of ultimate evil in hand), Yurt is powered out, and Gylik is being Gylik.

7264Posted 6/25/2006 7:57:39 PM
7265message detail Typheim said nothing has Dusk went careening in the other direction. The Black Pikmin that had done so paid Typheim no heed as it rushed by, screaming in terrible fury.
7266
7267Typheim moved back to his post next to the gate. But this time, he leaped over the gate, right into the village. The village was empty looking - no doubt that the pink pikmin had evacuated. But nevertheless...
7268
7269Typheim began to walk out, calling for anyone that may still be there. As he did so, explosions began to rattle the ground, and the thunderclouds above took on a reddish hue. But Typheim paid little mind to this - he had something else to get to.
7270
7271Time passed. Calling some more. But eventually, it paid off.
7272
7273He found a young Pink pikmin huddled in a house, alone and abandoned. The pikmin recoiled in fear at the sight of Typheim in the battered doorway of the house, like Pikmin to a Bulbax. To get his co-operation, Typheim dropped his weapon.
7274
7275"Child, why are you still here?" inquired Typheim.
7276
7277The Pink Pikmin said nothing, but instead, it gestured towards its mouth and throat. Typheim was puzzled for a moment, but after a few more gestures, it dawned on him.
7278
7279"Mute," he said simply, and the pikmin nodded. Typheim walked closer, but the pikmin moved back. Typheim gave the pikmin an assured look.
7280
7281"Do not worry, I will not hurt you. After all, we are both Pink Pikmin, are we not? Come now." Typheim reached out a hand to the pikmin, who lay on the floor. Shakily, the pikmin reached out a hand, and Typheim pulled the fearful pikmin off the ground.
7282
7283Typheim looked the pikmin sternly in the eye, "Are you all right?"
7284
7285The pikmin nodded.
7286
7287"Do you know any healing arts?"
7288
7289The pikmin seemed to nod enthusiastically at this, a rather confident and proud grin on his face.
7290
7291"Would you be able to heal this wound?" Typheim indicated the wound on his shoulder. Apparently, the pikmin didn't notice it earlier, as it recoiled slightly in disgust at the gruesome looking wound. But nevertheless, it pointed its stem at Typheim, and a brilliant, pink light enveloped him.
7292
7293Needless to say, the pikmin was an impressive healer - even at such a young age. The pikmin seemed proud of himself, and Typheim was rather amazed - nothing remained of the wound save for a light scar and trails of dried blood leading down from the scar. Even more, his bruises seemed to have disappeared, although his body still ached slightly.
7294
7295Typheim nodded at the pikmin gratefully, and quickly said, "You must get out of here. The rest of the pinks have evacuated, and Dhade's army may breach the gates. You must leave."
7296
7297But the pink pikmin nodded sadly, and before Typheim could interject, he moved into another room in the house, gesturing for Typheim to follow. What Typheim saw were two beds: both with unconscious, elderly-looking pink pikmin on them.
7298
7299Typheim understood immediately, "You couldn't leave them, but since you could not carry them, you had to stay, correct?" The pink pikmin nodded again.
7300
7301"Leave. I will carry them."
7302
7303Time flew by quickly. When they came outside the small home, the sky was redder than before, and lightning reigned above. Typheim looked back at the pink pikmin, both of the Elderly ones on his shoulders, "Come! We must go!"
7304blackforestrifle
7305Posted 6/25/2006 7:57:51 PM
7306message detail They began to trek up the mountain, the young pink pikmin running as fast as his legs could carry him. Typheim led the pikmin to a hidden ledge on a cliff face. Typheim leaped up to it, deposited the two pikmin there, then came back for the young pink, and deposited him up there along with the two elderly.
7307
7308"You must stay here until the battle clears. You have a clear view of the battlefield from up here. Wait until it is done."
7309
7310Typheim turned briskly to leave, but not letting out a brief "thank you." He leaped off the cliff face, and ran back to the village.
7311
7312As he came back, he picked up his weapon from beside the house. He rushed for the gates.
7313
7314But the sight that met his eyes wasn't heart-easing. The gates were being banged upon, its doors bulging with every blow, threatening to give way.
7315
7316Typheim leaped over the gate gracefully, performing a flip as he did, and, going into the momentum of his flip, drove his blade into the ground as he landed, letting out an explosion of lightning. Black pikmin bodies scattered in all directions, while the battering ram used to tear down the door flew off, crushing a few unfortunate pikmin.
7317
7318Typheim spun his blade madly, then got into battle stance, waiting as a battalion of black pikmin charged him.
7319
7320A good 6 or so Black pikmin met him, lances at ready. Typheim began to twirl his blade and himself, creating a great spinning blade attack. The mere momentum of the spin crushed and knocked aside the black pikmins' weapons upon impact, jarring them considerably. Typheim almost lazily spun into a graceful swing that threw back the pikmin, cutting them all as it did, before fluidly moving back into his twirl. A great number remained; however, the Sentinels were coming in to assist. Typheim moved forward, his spin knocking aside pikmin, and cutting them down, all in a graceful, furious dance. Weapons that met him were blown aside, for everytime he was attacked, he altered his pinning and twirling ever-so-slightly to meet each blow. Typheim's co-ordination, grace, and precision in combat were staggering - almost machine-like.
7321
7322Typheim then gave a graceful swing that fluidly came upwards from a vertical motion, into a graceful arc, then slammed the weapon into the ground with stunning force. The earth cracked beneath his feet, the ground crumbling and shattering where the weapon struck. Cracks branched out across the ground, the earth shaking violently. Then, Typheim yanked his weapon out, and brilliance followed. Lightning webbed out from the cracks in the ground, then, a colossal shockwave bloomed to life, tearing apart the earth as it blazed along the ground.
7323
7324Typheim didn't even stop - he leaped into the air, to continue fighting others: may as well fight efficiently and constantly instead of waiting for the smoke to clear. However, he winced as an arrow flew by, stinging his shoulder as it flew by. He landed on the ground, away from the battle slightly.
7325
7326However, he truly did not achieve any safety or brief rest - a spear flew in his general direction, followed by a barrage of arrows. Typheim did his best to block the sudden attack by spinning his weapon in front of him, but a few arrows managed to hit its mark - namely, himself.
7327
7328But the attack was ruthless; a group of black pikmin was rushing right at him.
7329
7330So many attacks… Had someone ordered an attack on him?
7331
7332Typheim met the blacks in a ferocious clash of weapons. This time, the black pikmin managed to score a few slashes on his body just before being taken out. Typheim stopped to examine his wounds, but was interrupted when a mighty yell was uttered.
7333
7334Typheim jerked his head up; More arrows.

7338message detail Typheim rolled to the side, narrowly avoiding the rain of deadly projectiles. As he came upright, another group of black pikmin was headed his way.
7339
7340This time, Typheim blasted them with lightning. He managed to down a few before the remaining three reached them.
7341
7342One wielded an axe, the other two swords. Two archers were rushing towards Typheim to aid the other three.
7343
7344Typheim met the three warriors. They were obviously more skilled than the others he had faced earlier. They parried each blow skillfully, strafed attacks easily, and knew when to retreat backwards before returning to combat. The archers in the back were not much compared to the soldiers Typheim was currently facing in terms of skill; he dodged each arrow easily enough.
7345
7346Soon, all of them, archers included, went down. This time, Typheim suffered a fairly large cut on his leg, but he ignored it easily.
7347
7348This time, no attacks were launched on him. Typheim took the time to catch his breath, before turning his attention back to the gate.
7349
7350Sure enough, and just as he expected, the Sentinels had cleared the vicinity around the gate of Black pikmin, and were now directing their attention to other matters.
7351
7352Typheim moved back to the entrance of the gate, remaining still, and waited for the next attack.
7353
7354He hoped the battle would end soon: corpses littered the battlefield. Enemy or foe, Typheim cared not; they were tainting the mountain grounds with blood.

7386
7387'Damn... it!' thought Dusk as Shadow barreled into him, knocking him far from the Guardian. 'This guy seriously does NOT know when to give up!' Dusk flipped and caught Shadow on the chin with a kick, sending the Black warrior sprawling away.
7388
7389"Damnit, you need to learn to give it up! I was having a great fight with that Guardian!"
7390
7391"Shut up, Dusk! I'll never give up until you're dead at my feet! What you did is unforgivable!"
7392
7393"Unforgivable, maybe. But I do what I do for fun. I meant to piss you off, see if you could be a challenge, but you were nothing. For that matter, I thought I'd killed you then."

7395"I swore I would never die until I got my revenge..."
7396
7397"Ha! You'll never kill me!"
7398
7399"WE'LL SEE!"
7400
7401Shadow charged again, slashing at Dusk with wild abandon. Dusk was much faster, though, and simply dodged away from every blow. His cocky attitude was demolished, however, when he was blindsided by something long and spiky, something that happened to be Shadow's tail. He used the distraction to jump at Dusk and begin slashing the hell out of him. A few seconds of this, and Dusk knocked him away.
7402
7403"Enough, peon! I'll tear you apart!"
7404
7405Dusk summoned up his swords and rose them into the air. Clouds came together above him and a lightning bolt struck down, connecting with the swords. Dusk then pointed them at Shadow, the lightning still reaching from the heavens to electrify the weapons.
7406
7407"Lightning Blast!"
7408
7409Shadow jumped aside as a large beam fired from the swords. The beam continued past him... then hit the wall of the Pink village, continued through it, and blasted completely through the village, leaving several things with large holes burned in them. The Black Pikmin gaped. If that had hit him...
7410
7411"Lightning Blast!"
7412
7413No time to dwell. He jumped aside as another blast fired past him, this one going high and passing over the village. He then ducked as another blast blazed over him, then he used this time to charge forward and sock Dusk in the gut, halting his barrage. The response was several slashes aimed at him. Shadow was by no means as fast as Dusk, and took several hits before being smacked away. Dusk growled.
7414
7415"You're beginning to annoy me!" he snarled. He then pointed one of his swords at Shadow.
7416
7417"Lightning Strike!"
7418
7419A bolt of lightning flashed down from the heavens. Shadow barely managed to dodge, then covered his ears just in time to protect them from the immense BOOM that followed. This cost him, as another bolt hit him. Shadow screamed in pain as the electricity coursed through him, then fell to the ground as it left.
7420
7421"Well, I must admit, it was fun. But now you die!"
7422
7423He swung his sword at Shadow, intending to decapitate him... but Shadow was no longer there.

7432
7433"How... How are you-"
7434
7435Shadow smirked. "I knew my copy technique would come in handy someday. Drains me a good bit... But you've been wasting your energy on a fake for quite some time. I made that when I dodged your first Lightning Blast. Pretty handy, huh?"
7436
7437Dusk was pissed, very pissed. He'd wasted a bunch of energy fighting a fake! How had he not noticed it? Damn this Black Pikmin and his tricks! He snarled.
7438
7439"Your little trick cost me too much energy... I'll kill you some other time," he said as he started glowing more brightly, turning into a ball of light.

7466What's in a name? I thought pleasently. I was a nameless God, although I had picked out the name Regret being used by the Trio of Regret as I had titled them.
7467My essence floated about, gently seeping through the battlefield, and utterly destroying both sides morale.
7468
7469It was hard to kill when you were crying over the ones you already had killed.
7470
7471But both sides waned equally, and I felt a pulse before I, or at least my essence, was... cleansed from the battlefield. Removed from both sides I was put off, but I had already gotten what I sook. I was fully energized from the harvested Regret. Now I was ready.
7472
7473But first...
7474
7475Surrounding my essence about the Sentinal I had worked so hard to save, I gently probed at his mind and than envolped it.
7476
7477Ah... the nameless Sentinal... and a nameless God...

7513Foolish mortals and their desires... I am alive again, and now, not even Chaos can stop me. The foolish traitor of my House. We could have ruled together, my old friend. Come, Comrade, tell me you do not wish for more power? Of course, I already supply you with it, my creations destroy far more than willingly. But it angers you, how odd.
7514
7515Well, brother, I have broken from your prison thanks to Kefka... Yes, that reminds me.
7516
7517"Kefka, go to my two most devote followers, tell them they must hurry if they wish to take part in what is to occur..." Finally, I feel the faith, the bloodlust, the very life of my followers again... it has been so long. Of the mortals, the top five of my followers... Dhade, Black Arts, Ghorink, Xzian, & it is close for the fifth, though it is distant... Shadow or Lled? I will let the two fight for that title later on, if they both survive.
7518
7519Dhade... you are almost mortally wounded in my service as high priest? "Kefka, also go to Dhade... heal him, be creative...." Ghorink & Xzian are there with him, his two highest Imperian Guards; they are fine. Black Arts is harmed, he will survive; Xzian is with him, among the ranks against my literally mortal enemies, he is to be rewarded... Shadow is distracted from my cause for a lesser goal?! He will be punished along with the one who distracts him... or I'll have them fight for my amusement.... yes. Lled, Lled, Lled... what *are* you doing? I can't sense you...
7520
7521"Where do you think you are going, Zemus?"
7522
7523That voice... I haven't heard it for what seems like aeons, it is so distant in my memory, who... "I go where I please, and nothing dares stand in my way."
7524
7525"I do." Out of the rocks near the magma stream of my earthly prison, the fire barely giving out enough light to show his form. "I will not allow you to leave this place. You caused the extermination of so many people -- Karg should never have deified you."
7526
7527"Whom do I have the pleasure of bringing down from the pinnacle of power?"
7528
7529"No-one." answered the form, laughing "But if you'd be asking for my name, I'd tell you it's Metron. Or, if you prefer my name in my native tounge, Bâritrândam Abattabolgdam."
7530
7531"Kefka, go now, I will take care of Metron." As my servant leaves, Metron blasts him into a wall, Kefka recovering and running out, "What?! The Clear Pikmin are supposed to be gon--"
7532
7533"I will keep you here, Zeromus, your slaves do not matter to me."
7534
7535-3rd Person-
7536
7537"I will escape here... " Zeromus transformed into a monsterous beast -- eight legs, two being used as dual scimitars, dull red serrated edges, the other six used as legs, crushing the ground. Dull brown his carapace came, and teeth sharper than the scimitars.
7538
7539"You will not pass through the gateway." Metron put his hand to the magma, absorbing it, the heat flowing through, creating weapons of living flame, "You dared to defy the sanctity of my home, you waged war on the world, and you destroyed a utopia... Your move."

7626
7627Thunder boomed overhead as the elder ushered me into a small hut. He shut the wooden door behind him and took a seat at a small, oaken table. He gestured for me to do the same. As I took my seat, I noted the many maps and melted candles littering the table in a haphazard fashion. Along with the scrolls, books, and...
7628
7629"The insignia of Typhon?" I suddenly said out loud.
7630
7631I looked up. The elder looked at me wearily, a glint in his eyes.
7632
7633"So, you've heard of the legendary black dragon? I never knew such a tale would come to reach your ears."
7634
7635"Actually," I said slowly, recalling my wonderful time back at Delphi, "while in Delphi, I took the time to read some of the books there. Among the stories and tales I read, Typhon was included. He was the Dark Clear who wiped out a great amount of Clears in the ancient war, was he not?"
7636
7637The elder smiled, "Ah, Delphi... That's where you've been all this time?"
7638
7639"Yes, Elder."
7640
7641"Ah, goodness, if you're lucky to have survived... At least you weren't taken to the hostile nations. Ah, such a misfortunate misunderstanding..."
7642
7643"Elder.... what..."
7644
7645The elder rested his elbows upon the table, and propped his chin on his intertwined fingers. "The night you were sent to retrieve Dhade... It all went horribly wrong, did it not?"
7646
7647I let out a short gasp, "You know...?"
7648
7649The elder cut me off, "I need to tell you everything now, as time draws thin. Ask me questions when I am done," he said briskly. "Now..."
7650
7651He stood up, and went over to another table I hadn't noticed before, pulled a steaming kettle off from a stove, and began to rummage about. "Clade... There are many things you do not know. It's been terrible, and along with trying to manage the village along with the knowledge I bear... It leaves me rather hopeless, really."
7652
7653He took a seat once again, and slid a cup of nectar tea in my direction. However, I didn't so much as pay it any heed.
7654
7655"Clade, you don't know Abigail has done."
7656
7657My head shot up at this. "What? The military manager for all green villages? My father?"
7658
7659The elder raised a hand to silence me, "Clade, do not speak while I explain. Time draws thinner and thinner. Please, we must hurry."
7660
7661The elder didn't even wait for my response as he continued, "The night Abigail sent the troop to the eastern valleys, I was rather curious. I questioned him on the matter, but he never answered my question. He flew away, but I was rather persistent on getting my answer. I flew in pursuit of him.
7662
7663"It was a startling night for me. I trailed him all the way to the black pikmin nation. Convinced of something suspicious, I watched from afar. Of all people, he was conversing with Dhade, the priest...

7671message detail "Clade, first of all, turns out that Dhade is evil. He is no peaceful ambassador or anything. He is one of the keys to Zeromus' release."
7672
7673My jaw dropped at this. The elder continued.
7674
7675“Ah… where to start. I learned many things while I eavesdropped. Clade, you are among the Pink Oracle’s group, correct?”
7676
7677I nodded. He then continued, “I need you to relay everything I say to the Oracle. It is unlikely that he has caught wind of these occurrences, but even if he has, there is something you must hear.”
7678
7679The elder took a sip from his drink, and began to tell what, presumably, was his tale, “There is a great web of corruption going on in the higher circles of our society. This village exactly isn’t counted as a part of the noble green society, so we have only one connection to the high commands and nobilities – your father. As you know, he has been vital in helping to sustain our village well-being with his salary, along with giving us a say in the government, even if it is a small amount. But just months ago, I noticed Abigail had begun to act strange. He began to neglect the duties he swore to our village. Before even I knew it, he made the drastic decision to send our military to assist one of the noble Black pikmin.
7680
7681“The black pikmin have been an odd one in our eyes for many a generation, but otherwise, we considered them neutral when it came to relations. Even recently, we did not involve ourselves much when it came to them. So normally, I was curious when Abigail issued an order to send our forces on a retrieve mission. He refused to comply with any of my questions, and, well, that was the last time he ever stepped foot in our village.
7682
7683“Knowing not what to do, I simply watched as the battalion marched on. I assumed that things would not turn well, as everything had been so hastily executed, and many did not foresee such an unexpected decision. So we waited for them to return, unsure of what the outcome would be.
7684
7685“When a messenger returned bearing news of what happened, well, needless to say, much of the village was horrified at the announcement; I’m quite sure you are aware of what it was. It was at this point that I resolved to seek out Abigail, to get answers, reasons, anything.”
7686
7687My mind drifted at the elder’s previous words. Indeed, it was a horrifying night for me. We had retrieved Dhade from hostile forces, but a staggeringly massive assault suddenly overwhelmed our forces from simply nowhere. The onslaught was finished in minutes – many of my comrades fallen to the ground soaked in grime and blood, fire consuming the “battlefield,” magic streaking through the night air, cries of both terror and almost-animalistic roars – as if for vengeance… I… barely escaped with my life that night, something I am grateful for, yet... The guilt of abandoning my allies – my friends – in the hands of hostile forces to be slaughtered, burdened me.
7688
7689Haunted me.
7690
7691I had managed to shake off the memory, despite how grim the memory was, but every now and then, the memory seemed pervade over me, granting me some unpleasant, sleepless nights.
7692
7693The elder interrupted my absent thoughts by continuing, “I sought him out with far more ease than I ever expected. I found him hours after I began my search – at the grand hall in the central Green village. Like I told you earlier, I followed him all the way to the Black territory, where I witnessed him coinciding with Dhade.”
7694
7695“Now, first of all, Abigail is in affiliation with the Black Pikmin nobility. From what Dhade’s words implied, seems that he has bribed Abigail into joining the Black Pikmin’s campaign for feeding the flames of war. I learned of many things he was associated with: him tipping the relations between the White and Purple Pikmin into dreadful conditions, being behind several blackmails which caused the Red and the Blues to declare an all-out war, and him sending off the battalion to rescue Dhade, of course.”

7697Posted 7/10/2006 10:40:52 AM
7698message detail I said nothing. The moment the elder spoke those words describing my father’s actions, I became mortified. I could feel a coldness suddenly well up within me, and I was aware that my breathing had accelerated.
7699
7700The elder continued, aware of the change of demeanor within me. However, I wasn’t even sure if I was taking in his words properly as he spoke, “Dhade spoke of many things but above all, prophecies. Prophecies of calamity. Clade, what I am about to tell you is what you must relate to the Oracle, for there is nothing I know I can do in this situation. If anyone knows, it is him.
7701
7702“Have you heard of the tales of the two Morbid Angels?” inquired the elder.
7703
7704This question suddenly brought me back to earth like the ground rushing up to meet me at high speeds. I gave a sudden intake of breath, as if surprised, but nevertheless, complied, “…You speak of the two Dark Clears that obliterated many of the Clear forces back in the ancient war? Like Typhon?” The parchment bearing the draconic insignia seemed to glint malevolently in the candlelight at the mention of its possessor.
7705
7706The elder looked grim, “The night Zeromus gains a passage onto this plain of existence is the night that the two Morbid Angels are released from their prison. Both of them.
7707
7708“And it is easy enough to understand – if these two demi-gods are released, it spells doom for all of us.”
7709
7710~~~
7711
7712I soared across the skies, relentlessly trying to gain more and more speed. Lightning reigned high above as thunder roared across the skies. Rain pounded down mercilessly, but I carried on, intending to get back to the village.
7713
7714The urgency that was pushing me to move quickly was not just the fact that there was a thunderstorm – oh no, there was far more. The fact that the elder had specifically said to move quickly, the fact that the elder told me a battle was occurring back at the village, but…
7715
7716The mere thoughts of my father tossed my mind into emotional turmoil. Somehow, I’m not quite sure… But it constituted to my relentless, ferocious pace.
7717
7718Also, I think that the freaking sky being tinged red is enough to convince me to find out what the hell was going on.
7719
7720Well, clouds, if I am to nitpick.
7721
7722I gave another mighty flap of my wings. Luckily the wind was on my side, so with each fierce, but graceful flap, I propelled myself ever faster.
7723
7724Unfortunately, I’ve never gone at such a high speed before. If my mind wasn’t so occupied, I would be screaming and careening out of control.
7725
7726Funny how the mind makes you do things…
7727
7728~~~
7729
7730The village came into view. The village itself was barren and empty, but outside the gates…
7731
7732The gates themselves were beaten and worn. However, the truly horrifying thing was the battlefield; corpses littered it like a mitite swarm on mating season; blood flooded the ground, and from here I could see fallen warriors, their bodies caked with blood and stained with mud.
7733
7734And still, the fight raged on viciously. Swords clashed, shields clanged, arrows soared every which way, screams of fury, fear, agony and insanity rang out…
7735
7736I loaded a small, iron ball into my sling, and drew it back into a swing. I let it carry its momentum faster, before flinging it at my target – A large black encased in armor.*
7737
7738The projectile hit home – it slipped through a small gap in his armor and to the back of his neck. He fell without a sound.
7739
7740I touch down upon the ground, my sling loaded again. It seemed that the blacks were retreating, but still, after what the elder told me, I have this great dislike for them that I needed to vent…

7825Damn this Green Pikmin... I'll dice him to pieces for that! I raise the scimitar, point toward him, ready to kill him... but I'm interrupted.
7826
7827"Black Art... Recall the troops. Zeromus is awake, and we will wait for his instructions. Bring all that remain back-- and with haste, you know my stance on failure. Its so similar to yours....
7828
7829And there is something I wish to tell you in person, alone."
7830
7831I grin a sadistic grin. So, the time has come. My mind is weakened, but I still have the strength to...
7832
7833'Troops! Dhade sends his word: Zeromus has awakened. We are to return immediately. Anyone still alive, finish up whatever you're doing and let's go. Shadow, return to me and cover my escape, I am wounded.'
7834
7835I look back at the unconcious green Pikmin... I snarl and slash at him a few times before moving around him. The troops are heading this way, the archers closest to me, picking off the enemies following. A Pink who managed to get past them all jumps at me, but I slice him in half with the scimitar... only for another to jump out from the side. I'm not fast enough to get him...
7836
7837But it doesn't matter. Something erupts from his chest, leaving him hanging in midair. The spike pulls away, leaving the Sentinal to drop unceremoniously to the ground. Shadow walks up to me, looking only the slightest bit injured. His armor is coated in blood and there's a large burn mark on the stomach of it. His claws have a large amount of blood on them, and he smells quite heavily of ozone. His left eye is again sealed shut, and sanity is returning to his right eye. He looks at my weapon.
7838
7839"That's new. Where'd you get that?"
7840
7841"The Sentinal who I told you to attack threw it at me when I attempted to control him. I really wish you'd been there to stop that..."
7842
7843"All I see is the smallest of scars."
7844
7845"That's the point! If you can see it with a single eye, anyone else could see it!"
7846
7847"You always wear that cloak of darkness, no one will see it outside of battle..."
7848
7849I growl. "Nevermind... in any case-"
7850
7851"That's sword is emanating a large amount of evil."
7852
7853"Ah, so you have noticed. This scimitar, in fact, belongs to Dhade."
7854
7855Shadow looks surprised... or, as surprised as you can look when your left eye is sealed shut.
7856
7857"A Pink Pikmin had Dhade's weapon? How'd THAT happen?"
7858
7859"A question better asked of Dhade... though you really shouldn't."
7860
7861"I suppose. But what should we do about the big army of Pink Pikmin following us?"
7862
7863"I may be able to do something about that..."
7864
7865I turn around, finding myself at the back of the army now. Everyone on our side that is alive is on this side, good... I lift my hand up...
7866
7867"BRISNGR!"
7868
7869... and sweep it sideways. A massive wall of fire blocks the path of the enemy army. Any Red Pikmin in their army could still get through... but they'd quickly be cut down if they tried. I collapse to the ground, panting. Shadow catches me before I hit.
7870
7871"That took a bit out of me..."
7872
7873(Think I may be reaching the limit, continued next post...)

7883"Hmph. Come on, get up."
7884
7885I slowly bring myself to me feet. My legs are a bit unstable. Damn that Green Pikmin and his poison...
7886
7887"That took more than it should have... thrice damn that Green Pikmin."
7888
7889"The bear?"
7890
7891"Yes... he poisoned me. It's affecting my mind... I need to rest..."
7892
7893"Right then... let's get back to the boat. You can rest there." (They'd use a boat because, you know, you guys had to use one, after all...)
7894
7895'Okay troops... back to the boat.'
7896
7897I am tired. I look around. Where is Slam? I hear the thuds and look there. Slam is covered with arrows, and the red part of him is bruised, but for the most part, he seems fine. I smile. At least Slam is okay...
7898
7899Shadow
7900
7901Damnit. Black Art lost conciousness about halfway to the boat. Once we got there, I wonder how we'd get the Crawbster onto the boat.... This is vanquished when it simply slips into the water and swims over to the side of the boat. Oh yeah... crabs can swim...
7902
7903I head into the boat, through the cabins, and into Black Art's room, then lay him down on his bed. Sleeping like a baby... how utterly embaressing. Ah, what I wouldn't give for something to capture this moment... I smirk and shake my head. He'd bite my head off if I told anyone. Ah well.
7904
7905I returned to the deck. Our numbers have thinned a bit, but I'm sure their casualties are far greater than our's... The troops head down under the deck to the paddles and start rowing. With nothing else left to do, I head back down to Black Art's cabin and lean against the wall next to the door. After all, I have to make sure nothing happens to him... I did swear fealty.

7918Rippling pain greeted my awakening. I was still laying on the battlefield, but now a figure stood over me, and I slowly took in who it was.
7919
7920"FISHSEED WANT KNOW HOW FUZZY FEEL."
7921
7922Yurt.
7923
7924My eyes twisting about, I did my best to ignore the agony I felt.
7925
7926"Horrible." I hissed out, as the pain grew as I felt more and more of my body in greater and greater detail. "How bad is it?"
7927
7928"Nothing the Healers can't fix, I'm sure." Yurt said, apparantly in control. Stress seemed to cause him to slip to fishseed mode.
7929
7930Twisting my head around, I was stopped by Yurt.
7931
7932"Please. Don- OUCH!" Yurt was interupted by a fierce bite from yours truly.
7933
7934And I wished he had succeeded in stopping me. My back was ripped up, and within myself, I saw a light green chute running from where my tail appeared right up to my head.
7935
7936Yurt took a deep breath and then began to list my injuries.
7937
7938"Your vitals managed to escape any true wounds. I did my best to heal what little damage had been done to them, but I stayed away from everythign else... I'm not exactly a qualified healer, and I could do some serious damage. In fact, I think that after what happened to you, you'll need to heal naturally. It'd be too much of a shock to your system." Yurt took a breath, and I suppresed the urge to vomit from seeing my insides. "I think something of your bestial nature sheilded you from the sword's magic, because... well, with the slashes he delivered, your spine should be in shatters. The muscles across your back have the worst damage... a lot of them were severed."
7939
7940I looked up at the blue mage. Taking my left hand with my right, I pressed the fingers together and brought them up to my mouth, whistling through the small slit that was created.
7941
7942Yurt looked at me strangely. "Rune?"
7943
7944And then the hawk I had seen flying above us, the one I had called, landed.
7945
7946"Messenger of the beasts. Where do you ask passage now?" The bird spoke with contempt, understandable, as standing up, Yurt was the size of it's claw.
7947"Oasis. Shelter. Respite. Hovel. The nearest place of rest and healing."
7948"The Nest is the closest. My nest."
7949"Please. I request the shelter of the noble hawk that stands before me."
7950"And it is granted."
7951
7952Yurt silently wrapped the cloaks of fallen soldiers about me, using a poleaxe to stabilize me as well. Feeling myself lifted gently, tenderly, by the hawk, I knew it was a mother.
7953
7954"Till we meet again Yurt."
7955"I'll be closer than you realize."
7956"You would wouldn't you..."
7957
7958And then I felt the pulse and beat of the wings as the hawk set off for for her nest.

7966My division is returning... finally. It has taken long enough... They had best hurry, if they don't want to join the Suicide Squad...
7967
7968But I admit, even if they don't 'hurry', and the other kingdoms learn of my recovery, they're still weakened from their non-stop fighting amongst themselves. Militarily, Purple would pose the greatest threat, if given the time. We certainly would be pressed if they throw a mountain atop of our headquarters.
7969
7970We must also be wary of the Blue Queendom. Our Navy is fledgling, and they have the advantage of gills... Perhaps we will never conquer their capital, but in a long siege we can keep them. Red is slightly easier, though there would be more injuries as opposed to casualties... amputations for the burns. Yellow... easily the weakest, those merchants, despite they being adept in the explosive weaponry.
7971
7972While conquering the White pikmin will be easy enough, they will cause the most trouble... not by military, but by their covert operations. I will lose some of my advisors, but I pity anyone who dares enter my chambers with trouble on their agenda.
7973
7974"Ghorink... take an Armada and go and greet our Expeditionary Force... Assume command, and place the commander on the swiftest ship, sending him back to me..." I order my Imperial Guard, the epitome of Elite. He, literally, wrote the book on personal combat.

8149"Indeed."
8150

8153A higher ranking, much bigger member of the S division leaped at this.
8154"As your immediate superior, I order such notions to be stopped at once!"
8155The small S division representitive turned contemptly at this.
8156"So mighty has fallen? He affeared in tiny plants? I spit in your general direction! We is already preparing. We attack!" And with that, the small figure left at a blurring speed.
8157
8158I looked at the shocked faces about me. "Does the S division plan to leave the protection of the council?"
8159The leader of the S division looked at me solemly. "I fear that I can no longer speak for the S division. My allegiance lies to the council." The proud leader bowed and looked up. "I have a child to tend to. As I seem to have been ursurped, I believe there is no need for my presence."
8160It made to leave, but I raised a battered appendage.
8161
8162"Stop!" It looked at me, and settled down. "We decided that action must be taken against those that wish to destroy our home."

8164I leaned forward to the council. "May I propose... a Kraken?"
8165I sharp intake of breath. Shock, maybe even horror. But no arguements. They agreed with me, no matter how horrible and inhumaine a fate a Kraken would bring.
8166
8167"High Council leader." I turned to the figure that spoke. E division high leader. "I believe that mating season recently ended."
8168"Yes?" I asked, not understanding his point.
8169"Well... likely, we will not find a Kraken alone. Rather... we would find families. Multitudes of children. We... we have seen how protective the Kraken is over territory... it is even mroe fiercly protective over it's children." He cleared his throat. "And the children should be capable as well, but still following their mother. The mate should have been eaten by this time however." The nervous representive settled down.
8170
8171"So... we set a Kraken on one of their ships..." I said in my own state of shock now.
8172"And you set a family on them. Up to 10 quarter grown Kraken and an enraged Mother." Said the E leader.
8173
8174"What they would do to the Earth, we do to them." I turned to the mighty leader of the S division, who had attempted to leave before. "We ask your services. Take a child Kraken in front of the Mother. Release it by the Black ships. The mother and it's children should quickly follow."

8300"You are beckoned by the Gods Flare..."
8301
8302A voice swam into my head, through eternal darkness.
8303
8304"What? Look, I'm tired. It's dark. I don't care if any God summons me, I'm rather content as I am-"
8305
8306"YOUR GOD, VOLCANUS, DEMANDS THAT YOU WAKE UP AND AID YOUR FRIENDS! BEFORE I INDUCE MY DIVINE FURY UPON YOUR DIMUNITIVE FRAME!"
8307
8308"Ok... ok... jeez. Didn't have to be harsh. Try knocking next time?"
8309
8310"WHAT IS KNOCKING?"
8311
8312"Nevermind."
8313
8314I felt my insides twirl for a bit, and the world slowly began to come into focus... I made out the delicate reds and oranges of a candle flame- it flickered, so minute, so helpless, let radiated energy. Fire still amazed me. My eyes blinked, and I made out the worried expressions of others, some known, some not known. But all in all, I was in the company of friends.
8315
8316I recognized the old man. I motioned to him, and he winked wryly... then faded from sight. Suddenly, whispers filled the room as the bevy of figures around me began to stir. I heard voices, low, but I knew they were for me. I smiled, and placed my hands on the side of the bedframe. I squeezed, and forced myself up. I shook my head.
8317
8318"What's been going on?" I said, to no one in particular.
8319
8320A pink stepped forward.
8321
8322"We've been given command to stop the False Oracle... and we've deployed the Kraken since we have no other resources available to fight it."
8323
8324"False Oracle? Whom is this? How long have I been out?"
8325
8326"Approximately one week Flare."
8327
8328I cursed underneath my breath.
8329
8330"Damnit... are the other pikmin kingdoms well aware of this?"
8331
8332"We've sent out envoys to ask for aid... all except the blacks."
8333
8334"Are you saying that the blacks are involved with this so-called False Oracle?"
8335
8336"We have a reason to suspect... the companions you've traveled you have already gone to investigate..."
8337
8338"DAMNIT! Without me? I knew this would happen..."
8339
8340I jumped up, and began to storm out of the room, but I lost my footing and fell onto my face. The crowd separated around me... I felt so trapped. I crawled upright, and leaned upon the bed frame.
8341
8342"Ok... first of all, who the hell is this False Oracle? Does he have any connections with Shadow and Black Art? And what does he want?"
8343
8344Silence.
8345
8346"Damnit, can anyone of you answer that!?"
8347
8348From the back of the room, a single voice rose above the silence.
8349
8350"I can."
8351
8352It was Talis.
8353
8354Well GM, it's your show. I'm back guys... let's do this RP."

8365
8366A long while...
8367
8368His spell book, his only family object, destroyed...
8369
8370Memories came back to him of the battle. Of the carnage...
8371
8372His arms began to get goose bumbs...
8373
8374Frost began to settle on his skin.
8375
8376Layers and layers of ice.
8377
8378The ice began to get heavy.
8379
8380Too heavy he thought. And he fell.
8381
8382He began to roll, ice still forming. He was an avalanche.
8383
8384And then he woke up.
8385
8386I wonder... he thought...
8387He brought the images back. And felt the frost. He immediately broke his own concentration. Now was not the time.
8388"I know, I will create my own spell book!" he exclaimed, then made sure he didn't wake anyone.
8389He recorded the teleportation spell, and then the avalanche spell. And then he went back to sleep. "Now I can finally start pulling my weight. No one will mess this world up if I have anything to do with it."
