Once Upon a Time

An ancient war that preceeds the lifespan of modern times. One of darkness and light, of divinity and sacred freedom. Prometheus, the Titan that gifted humans fire with aim to have the Goddess ascend to rule over the pigs that clearly are unable to rule for themselves. These humans were given fire and instead of creating something greater, they kill each other meaninglessly. What better to do then to summon a Goddess to fix the wrongs of humanity and set the world on the rightful path yet again?

But at what cost?

A Prophecy, with a certain year. A Prophecy, passed down by an ancient family for generations before being handed to its current bearer through sheer chance. Whether to ascend the Goddess or lock her away for eternity, one must possess the Prophecy.





Image




Image
The Reign of Ira Shoku

A spawn of Prometheus, Ira Shoku, now leads Japan with his mighty fist. He controls all as the country's Emperor, and his goal seems to be the destruction of all that is light. A betrayer of Prometheus, his dream of once wishing to save the girl destined to be the Goddess has since been twisted by the darkness of his ambitions. With the cursed Hemond children as his right and left hands, and what's left of his faction of Prometheus serving his mighty Empire, Shoku destroys for the sake of destruction, searching for a meaning he no longer remembers.

It all seemed over. He had the Girl of Destiny under his thumb, he had the prophecy waiting to be deciphered, and the resistance against his power - Hime's Freedom Fighters, his exwife's HIVE, and the scattered gangs of what used to be Tsukasa's Yakuza, all too busy squabbling amongst each other to mount a real rebellion against him. But in a single instant, the tides turned. His own daughter vowed to free both the Hemonds and the Prophecy - but despite being caught yet and her having her plans foiled, the book of destiny has gone missing and it was anyone's guess as to who may possess it now.

His plan cannot proceed without it, and with this, a new opening has shown itself. If those who fight for the light wish to change the course of fate, now is the time to act.

Only with Yui's encouragement was Luna willing to give food a try. Needless to say it made her feel sick and awful but she had no choice but to eat. "If you eat every last bite, Mizuki will drive over and she'll help run the Paradise experiments." Luna was the entry, and Ren was the exit. They would both have to be at their best if they wanted to properly run the experiments on the strange land known as the subconscious of all humans on Earth. "Okay, fine! Yui, do you wanna watch?" The pinkette asked as she nibbled sourly on the fish. Normally she loved it but it just felt like eating slimy rubber right now. The doctors said she needed to eat so her stomach wouldn't forget how to but personally Luna was perfectly fine being fed intravenously.

After some struggle, the food was finished. Luna found herself in a large room set up just for these experiments. It had a special containment field built to make sure no dangerous energy escaped like had happened last time. Ren was there too, and both Angels were hooked up electronically to many monitors that would be examining their vitals. Leo was of course overseeing the experiment, while Mizuki was there to enter and exit the Gateways, with a team of two scientists, neither of whom were Light Bearers. It was odd - most people believed Paradise to simply be a dream that they had, while others acutely knew what had been going on. What was the difference between the two peoples? Leo had some theories but for now he wanted to run the test before finishing developing the thesis. Mizu looked a bit funny in her labcoat and her being shorter than the scientists didn't help. It was funny seeing her big sister looking so fancy.

"Okay, start the Gateway. Luna, open yours up so they can go into Paradise." Leo instructed and so Luna did so. She focused her mind on the pink fields, the glass kaleidoscope sky, the lonely cavern hidden by the pink dust and most of all, the haunting lullaby that spoke of a time before Light Seeds were on this planet. She felt her body twist and the Gateway opened, sucking light from her in order to maintain it. Pain shot through her mind but she held strong. "Just don't get caught by Tarik, though I think Resplendia's keeping him under wraps." Minako gave a wink and a nod and the trio entered's souls were sucked in.

After an hour, Leo instructed Ren to open his Exit Gateway. He did so by copying what Luna had done and from his body the glowing portal formed. It looked painful for him too as the souls of Minako and the two scientists were set free and put back into their bodies. Ren shut the Gateway then and Leo set up hospital beds for the three divers to recuperate on. "They're tired for now, they'll probably wake up by tomorrow." Leo's eyes were glowing at all the data he had uncovered. Luna however fell to her knees, buckling as horrible cramps erupted in her middle. Ren too, was wincing as he was in pain. "I don't think we can safely Gateway." Luna whimpered. "Not without borrowing light to do it first." It had taken far too much of their light to open and shut.

"I'll come watch, but only if you and Ren promise to eat your lunch!" Had they tasted the food of paradise and could never go back? Yui certainly hoped not. When they were done, the three of them went down to the lab, but Yui had to wait in a wheelchair behind the glass wall, only able to look inside. She leaned forward in her chair, eager to catch a glimpse at the beautiful archway that would form. She watched, her eyes widening as Luna's body twisted to form the gate. Yui suddenly felt awfully sleepy, as though someone had drained her of her energy. After all, when Luna and Ren used too much light and needed to borrow more, they took it directly from the baby star. Yui struggled to keep her eyes open as Ren twisted into an exit, his body disappearing.

Yui's eyes slowly began to close, the child no longer able to stay awake. She slumped forward in her seat, one of the portable monitors beginning to beep to let Leo know that something was up. He was so engrossed in his experiment that he didn't notice the sleeping child until it was over. It wasn't detrimental, but Yui would need a light infusion to recover. The child was wheeled back to her room, where Ally was waiting, frowning when she saw that Yui was asleep. "She must have been tired," the nurse mused, unaware of Yui's situation. She helped the child into bed, tucking the blanket in around her. "All tuckered out from therapy," Ally replied, wheeling towards the bed. "Will Luna and Ren be back soon?" Ally asked, acting as though she wasn't watching when in truth, she was closely observing the actions the nurse was taking in case they proved to be hostile. Thankfully, she started the light infusion into the port without complications.

Yui woke up a few minutes later, wondering what sorcery had brought her back to her room. "Welcome back, we're waiting for Luna and Ren, they're still being tested." Yui nodded, perhaps relieved for once that it was not her who was being stuck with needles and the like. "I hope they're alright, I was so tired I could barely keep my eyes open," Yui confessed, wondering when her angels would return. There was a knock on the door, Ronan entered, grinning. "Do you have permission to be out of bed?" Ally asked, cocking a brow. "No, but I was bored, so I figured I'd swing by. Where are Luna and Ren?" Ronan asked, running a hand through his hair. "They're taking tests, hard ones! Leo's examining them," Ronan quirked a brow, positioning himself on the end of Yui's bed.

Ally brought out a bored game, one that would be easy for all three of them to learn together. Nothing violent, something slow paced that would be easy for Yui to control. The PT and OT team had told Ally how important games were, so the heiress was determined to introduce as many new games to the children as possible.

Eventually Mizuki and the two scientists woke up. Luna and Ren spent the waiting time drinking juice to replenish their energy because there was still more Leo wanted to test before he was satisfied for the time being. "So? What did you see?" Leo asked with fervent energy, eyes lit up with excitement. Mizuki grinned and described lavishly how Resplendia invited them to tea - not real tea, but in Paradise it seemed to replenish their souls. "No sign of that stupid gravity Star, but whatever." The blonde scientist seemed a bit confused. "We did that? I thought we just passed out. I don't remember anything." The redhead had a shaky little laugh. "I remember... vaguely, something. Wasn't it just a dream, though?" Leo then tested their light quantities to see if it lined up with his theories.

As a Light Bearer, Mizuki could remember it all vividly. All of the light bearers in the family remembered every last moment of Resplendia. Normal humans with elevated light above the average could vaguely remember it as a dream or a lost memory. Lastly, those with average or below average light seemed to have no recollection of Paradise in the slightest. Mizuki and the redhead were able to hum the tune of the lullaby, but the blonde didn't even remember that there was a lullaby to begin with. "It sounds like Resplendia's cooperating." Luna felt a bit relieved about that. While she and Ren were in Paradise they could see it all, they could see Resplendia's pain and feel it transmitting through to them. It was awful, yet they couldn't bring themselves to hate the former Star of Happiness. How could they, she never did anything evil! She just wanted everyone to be happy.

The next step was for Luna and Ren to use their ability to send things through Paradise to mankind. Well, to Mizuki and the two scientists specifically since they were within the Containment Field. Yui was gone now, she has passed out. Leo had an idea as to why but it was too early to know for sure just yet. So Leo drugged Luna with an injection and the girl seemed to fade in and out of consciousness. "Ren, tell her to send that feeling to the guinea pigs." Mizu stuck her tongue out at being called that but otherwise was waiting. So Ren sent her the signal and the pinkette shut her eyes, trying to spread the feeling of this dizzy tiredness. Almost immediately the near lightless blonde scientist passed out. Redhead needed a moment to lie down but did not fall asleep. Mizuki simply had a mild headache. "So those with more light are able to better resist the effects of Paradise." Leo muttered as he scribbled down notes. Last step for today was for Ren to release the feeling and pull it back out of Paradise. He did so and the three subjects seemed okay again. The side effect? Ren now seemed to exhibit the drug's effects.

Leo wheeled the dazed Luna and the drooling Ren back to the room where Yui and Ally were. Leo gave a smile as his girlfriend looked up from her wheelchair to greet him. "How did it go?" She asked, beaming. Leo smiled, his glasses almost fogging up. "I have so much data to crunch. Want to look it over with me later?" For Ally that was almost like being asked out on a date and for some reason she began to blush. "Oh - I'd love to! Thank you for inviting me!" Now that Ren and Luna were here, she continued teaching Yui all the rules to Snakes and Ladders. "Maybe once those two stop dribbling spit on themselves you can teach them what I've been teaching you!" The dreamweaver pat Yui's colorless hair with a motherly smile.

Yui closed her eyes, releasing a sigh. "I'm so tired," Ronan pat her head with his good hand. "I'm sure it's because they worked you hard in PT," he didn't think it had anything to do with what Leo was doing to Luna and Ren. Suddenly, Yui felt sick, able to feel the effects of the drug. Ally rubbed her back until the feeling went away, then brought out a board game to teach Yui how to play shoots and ladders. Somehow, perhaps by dumb luck, Yui was in the lead, with Ronan close behind and Ally all the way in the back despite the fact that she had claimed this was a game of skill and strategy. "I dunno Ally, my strategy so far has been to have Yui blow on the dice and it seems to be working," Ronan held the ice out, allowing Yui to blow on them. He rolled it, going ahead one space. He hit a ladder, taking it up. Ally shook her head, biding her time. "You'll see," she winked, rolling a three. She had to take a slide back down the beginning.

Their game came to a stop when Leo came strolling in with Luna and Ren, the two seeming dazed and confused. The nurses helped tuck them into bed, the three of them now sharing a room with special permission from the hospital board. Xavier and Damian would be coming by later as well with a yummy dinner for all of them to share, having whipped out some of the family's favorites. Raven and Mizuki would not be joining them since they had to address the public. Lia would be coming by though, having taken up residence on her own, now going to school at a private seminary for girl's. She had dyed her hair too, wanting to discern herself from her original counterpart. Yui was happy for the clone, glad she had been able to find her own life and meaning within it.

"I hope everyone can be happy again soon," Yui said wistfully as she rolled the dice, taking home the grand prize of two cookies with her win. Ally grunted, having lost by so much that her strategy seemed to have been a farce. Ronan came in second, earning one cookie and a glare from Ally, who had gotten no cookies. Yui shared one with her big sister, who patted her head lovingly. "You're too kind for your own good Yui," Ally sighed, shaking her head. "Whatever will we do with this sweet little baby?" Yui crossed her arms, sticking her tongue out, "I'm not a baby!" Ronan laughed, "you pretty much are, but that's alright." His grin fell ever so slightly, "you had to grow up too fast." His voice fell a notch, Ally becoming quiet as well.

Ren began to stir, blinking up blearily. Ronan went over to him to see how he was doing, the boy groaning as he turned onto his side. "I hate drugs," he murmured, propping himself up on his elbows. "Maybe you shouldn't take so many then?" Yui giggled, causing Ren to stiffen. "It wasn't my choice!" He threw the blankets off, using the IV pole to support himself as he marched over to where Yui sat, looking ethereal with the way the light hit her colorless hair, setting off her natural glow. "Yui, run-"

"No."

Luna felt something digging around in her head. It was hard to place and the truth was she still wasn't really able to fight it off. Not entirely at least. It was a familiar thing, but also foreign at the same time. She decided not to worry about it. She was too dizzy to really do much anyways. "Oh, that's right." Reminded by Ren's stirring, Ally pulled out a holo message from Noise, with instructions on vocal exercises for the children to do. She was aware that they were still recovering, but if they wanted to be ready on time for the Imperial Wedding they still had work to do. "Luna's probably okay o this front, but it'll be good for you two to get some practice in. Remember to um, project from the chest? Was that what Noise said?"

Such horrible singing advice was what woke Luna up from her haze -well, most of it at least. The pinkette stared dully in front of her before she shook her head. "No." She said in a quiet, almost pleading voice, as if wondering how someone could be so stupid as to get this wrong. "Diaphragm." She placed a delicate finger around the middle of her throat to show them where the organ was that they needed to sing from. "Breath exercises." What was Noise thinking, rushing them along like this? They needed to learn the basics first! No wonder the Little Sinner was better than Daisy! Though, Luna wasn't the Little Sinner .How the heck would the audience think of the pink angel as an idol, anyways? She was still relatively an unknown, a mysterious daughter of Mayumi Hime, one of the heroes of the Shoku War. Unlike a public figure like Aria who was very much well known throughout Japan.

The door slid open then, revealing two very happy gay people. Which, coincidentally, also once meant happy. Xavier and Damian were both very much happy, even if the advent of Resplendia meant Damian could no longer really read the futures in the book now. Sure, he could read past events as if it were a history article, but the future was blocked off now. Likely this was simply proof that Stars were interfering now in a world they had no right to. "We brought specially-made Damian-cooked food!" Xavier said with a grin, propping the tray of dishes carefully on the counter on the side wall. "And a friend." Damian stepped aside to make room for Lia, who had been making a life for herself. She was born a clone of Yui, and would always be small, but despite this, the mirror seemed to be thriving.

"Good work on winning." Lia said with a stoic expression, still somewhat robotic in her mannerisms. It was easy to think she was emotionless but really, the former doll just didn't express what she was feeling. "I did not enjoy Paradise. I did not like having to sing the sad lullaby." It had been a while since they saw her. She was one of those who fell asleep in the second-to-last wave of pink dust. A part of the former robot looked guilty, in fact. "I said I would help protect you, Yui, but I was away for many things." She was busy in the Refugee Camp throughout the journey to the Abyss, and starting school had sucked up much of her time as well. "But if the Fallen Stars want you, I will assist." Luna glared, pouting. "If Yui replacing us, Ren?" She asked, a bit upset that someone else was now vowing to be a Yui protector. Maybe she should just be happy about the extra help.

Yui practically rolled her eyes, did they really have to do singing exercises while they were in a hospital? Well, it seemed there was no rest for the weary. Ren hobbled over too Yui's bed, a circle forming on it while Ronan was stuck with a harmonica, blowing in a scale that they would have to copy. Ally fumbled with the instructions, telling them to sing from their chests but that felt funny. Luckily, around then, Luna awoke and told them that they were doing it all wrong, they had to sing from their diaphragms. Yes, that felt much better, singing from deep in the belly rather than up in the chest. "It's so cute when Yui sings," Ren sighed dreamily, having given up on his own practice. "It's like listening to a fairy, or a pretty bird. I just want to lock you up in a cage and keep you for myself."

"Whoa Mr. King of Darkness, that's my sister you're talking to!" Ronan said, rubbing his fist against Ren's head. Yui blushed, scratching at one of her cheeks. "I was just trying to sing from the heart," Ally laughed, now tending to the hung over Luna. Yui giggled, "Luna, you look like you had too much of a good time," Ren rolled his eyes. "It was the worst! I think Leo might be as bad as Shoku!" He groaned, flopping onto his back. Ally rolled her eyes, "I don't think anyone could ever be as bad as Shoku," and that was coming from a girl who hadn't even been tortured. "Still, I'm glad it's not me Leo is interested in this time," it was a relief to not be the one poked and prodded with needles. Yui shivered at the thought, the poor child still deathly afraid of them.

A knock came from the door, Damian and Xavier having arrived with dinner, a special guest coming in behind them, appearing a bit stoic in her cute school uniform. "We brought food!" Damian said happily, no longer plagued by the possibilities of the future. Perhaps it was a relief after all to no longer bear the title of Oracle. Now the book, while still useful to look back on, was just an ordinary book. There was no deciphering, no constant worry, just his normal mind reading ability. Xavier grinned, waving, it had been a while since he had last seen everyone. "Welcome back kiddo," he said, rifling each of their hair individually. They set up a table and chairs in the center of the room, Lia pledging that she would help protect Yui and Luna complaining that she was being replaced.

Yui shook her head, smiling ever so slightly as Xavier replied her up, the slight tremor in her bones making it a bit difficult to coordinate her walking. "That's alright Lia, you have your own life now." Yui was genuinely happy for her clone. "You shouldn't have to worry about this sort of thing anymore." Yui sat down in a normal chair, swinging her legs compulsively. "I'm glad we can all eat together like this, I miss having our family all together." Xavier's face fell ever so slightly, Damian nudged him, as though to say something. "Yui, I wanted to tell everyone under happier circumstances but... Damian and I, we got an apartment together... alone." Yui's smile fell more.

"Oh," she knew it was going to happen eventually, everyone would grow up and move on. There was no more war, no more battle, so why should they have to be together?

❝With blue radiance, the bird wants to sing.❞

【ɗιαƖσgΟ…Ρ” cσƖσя:#762D73 β™™ тнσυgΠ½Ρ‚ cσƖσя #BF3B3B】

Yui's singing really was high and cute, like that of a celestial being from the Heavens above. Which, well, was exactly what was going on actually, that was precisely what Yui was, wasn't it? Ren seemed a bit too embarrassed to try to keep up with Ronan's scales. Luna meanwhile was able to perfectly keep to Ronan's beat, adding a pretty vibrato at the end of each note for fancy flair. "H-hey! Stop showing off!" Ren snapped, shaking his head ruefully. He wanted to be good too, but he was almost scared of singing. Maybe it was because he knew his voice would never really be deep and masculine like he wanted it to, and so Yui and Luna might just end up laughing at him because of it. He was an Angel and just like Yui, just like Luna, he would never grow up.

Maybe it was okay for Luna, who was already able to do things with Ronan that you might consider unthinkable, and Yui, well, she was Yui. It was okay for girls to be small and cute, right? But Ren was different because he wasn't a girl at all! He was a boy and he desperately wanted to be able to become a man instead of always being looked down on by everyone around him. He wasn't as charismatic as Yui was, he wasn't as utterly strong as Luna at maximum power. No, his only real talent he had over them was his intelligence and even then it never seemed to matter much because with adults around like Ally and Raven, there was never any chance for him to show off his knowledge, was there? "Come on, Ren, sing." Xavier and Damian beckoned. He shot them a dirty look and scowled turning away.

Lia sure did look different now. She cut her hair in a short asymmetric look, longer on one side than the other. And her hair was all dyed black, of course. She was also not a perfect clone because she developed her own light bearing mark, able to create barriers that absorb energy and can fire back at enemies. "You look nice in black." Luna said with a bit of a smile, knowing she had to play nice because Lia and Yui were friends. "I heard it in Paradise." Lia said, face neutral but insides chilled at the thought of it. "If you died the world will turn to darkness." She had not seen the Ancient so she did not know, but even so Luna and Ren's fear of the place was enough to infect Lia with the fear of it as well. "I don't want that, and I owe you for saving me, so I can help." Well maybe it'd be good to have someone that was good at remaining calm rather than a family full of panicking weirdoes.

At the news of Damian and Xavier moving out, Ren was perhaps the most distraught of them all. Or at least the most vocally distraught. "No!" He cried. "But Tarik said there would be more Fallen Angels! Yui's still in danger, so why are you leaving?" Luna grit her teeth, shaking her head. "No, it's okay." She said, trying to not lose to her emotions and be sad. "No matter who leaves, as long as Yui has us, she'll be safe. No one else matters, right?" Ally snugggled Yui close. "You don't know how close I am to just making you Yui Medicus!" The dreamweaver squealed at saying it aloud.

Yui liked listening to Luna sing, it reminded her of Aria, despite the fact that their voices were distinctly different. One deep and soulful, the other light and soft. Still, Yui closed her eyes, her troubles seeming to melt away just listening to Luna practice. Ren was growing ever more flustered, his cheeks red from the teasing of Xavier and Damian. "I like your singing Ren," Yui said with a smile, "you're just saying that because you have to be nice," Ren retorted, shaking his head as he refused to sing for them. "I don't have to be nice," Yui frowned, "I bet I can be super mean!" They all laughed at that, "Yui, you're like, the nicest person around. I don't think you could ever be mean if you tried." Ronan said, tapping her on the nose. "Yeah, you're too sweet, like sugar," Ally replied, throwing her arms around the child.

Yui frowned, "I can be mean if I want to!" Yui thought long and hard, "Um... Xavier is a big smelly, poop head!" They all laughed at her attempt. "That was the worst attempt at an insult I've ever heard!" Ren laughed, pointing a finger as Damian unpacked the food, doling it out onto plates. Yui looked down at her lap, blushing. Despite her best attempt, even the child was aware of how lame it was. "I can be mean," she huffed, crossing her arms. "As mean as a rabbit stuck in a trap," Xavier compared, "but that's alright, we like our Yui sweet." He put another piece of meat on her plate, wanting to make sure she ate. Yui frowned, it seemed that Xavier and Damian had piled an awful lot of food on there.

"Thank you for the meal!" She clapped her hands together, opening up her chopstick packet to dig in. Yui had missed Damian's food, after months of getting practically no nourishment from Hazuki and Fumino, then being tube fed because of her messed up body until she could be fixed, and even then, Yui had only gotten to eat bites of hospital food between seizures. Even though those threats were gone, a new one had arisen and Lia seemed intent on helping combat it despite her new life and looks. She and Yui no longer looked anything alike, which Yui found herself strangely happy about. It was a bit perturbing having someone that looked exactly like you walking around.

Ren was distraught by the news, Ronan and Ally seeming to expect it. Luna seemed oddly happy about it, seeming to want to hog Yui all to herself. "It's okay," Yui smiled softly, "We'll all miss you, but you want to start a real life, don't you? Away from the mess of being a light bearer." Xavier smiled sadly, "I'm no longer the leader of the Freedom Fighters, there isn't a need for them anymore, Japan has been liberated." Was it apt to say that he possibly missed the war? Perhaps. Luna promised she would never leave, Ally glomped the child, declaring that she would adopt her once she was Medicus. Yui's eyes widened, "does that mean you're gonna marry Leo!?"

It had been a few days, and yet how could things have become so awful? Why was life such a nightmare now? Everyone was ruined and Luna didn't know what else to do. Lia was smiling coolly at her from across the glass room, harmonic barriers humming as they formed, one on each hand, swinging and clashing to block with their bright lights to protect the small light bearer wielding them from the razor sharp blasts of wind that simply could not break through the perfect defense no matter what she did. "This isn't fair, Lia! I trusted you! I counted on you, how could you do this to us?!" The pinkette was crying as she continued her attack, and with each blast of light blocked the shields only grew brighter.

Lia's smile felt like ice to look at and the black haired trendy mirror walked closer, the humming of the harmonic glowing rectangles of light only growing louder with how much energy was charged within them. "Then perhaps you trusted wrong. Please don't misunderstand. This is not a betrayal, simply the truth within my soul this entire time." Lia was an enemy, now and forever and Luna would never forget that. "Minako, help!" From her belt a chain dagger flew with relentless speed. It screeched as the wind thrust it right at Lia, the blackette blocking and slamming it into the ground. "No! Don't hurt Minako like that! I won't ever forgive you!" She lunged, her knuckles turning into air claws to swipe and strike. She attacked up top, she dove around, she let loose a large sonic wave of wind energy, she did everything she could to break the fortress of light. But then something pressed against her middle and an immense pain rippled through her, sending her flying into the wall, almost breaking the protective seal.

"I win." The former robot said, giving a bow. The scientists monitoring the fight were more than happy, glad to see so much research made. There were even some bets thanks to a certain Mizuki at work here. "Which of the two Goddess's Creations will win?" Mizuki asked on a live stream. "The pink lovable angel of wind, Luna? Or the mysterious mirror, the cold and collected Lia? Please place your bets! This one will be a tizzy!" In the end Luna lost, mostly because of the context of this little practice fight. "The winner gets a cookie!" The pinkette fell in despair. "No!" She cried because it was a special cookie made by Yui herself - or so Mizu claimed. "I wanted it!" She felt dizzy at the back of her mind but decided to ignore it for now. It was probably nothing. "It's delicious. Do you want some?" Lia asked, breaking it in half after taking a bite.

Luna stared at the peace offering, eyes watering with temptation. Could she do it, was Lia not actually trying to trick her and be a mean dumb goose? "Wait! That's not even half!" It was broken into four ninths and five ninths! Luna wasn't an idiot she knew a trick when she saw one. "It's difficult to cut things without summoning a special cutter built into my arm." Was that one of her functions back when she had been a Coppellia? "You're a jerk!" Luna wept as she had no choice but to accept the smaller cookie. "No, I'm the winner. But don't worry, my power is just specially useful against you." She gave Luna a pat on the head that felt like pity and hurt the angel's pride even more.

"Oh my, what are we going to do with them?" Ally sighed, leaning her head against her cheek. Yui giggled, watching them fight. "They're so silly, taking this fight so seriously!" Luna wanted so badly to prove herself that she allowed her inner dialogue to get in the way of her battle with Lia. Mizuki too, was having those on a live stream place bets, no doubt wanting to make a quick buck. Yui closed her eyes, shaking her head as the battle came to an end, Lia winning. Leo had been running tests all day, allowing Yui to watch after she returned from therapy. There was added psychology now, Leo wanting to make sure that the child had no trauma left over from the incident with Hazuki and Fumino. There was plenty, to say the least, the psychologist unearthing more as Yui spilled her deepest secrets and fears from that time, confessing to her desire to die during said time.

The psychologist helped her through it, reminding Yui that it was over, that the anxiety she had about being alone and about the dark were okay and normal. Sometimes Ally sat in, allowed to listen, but not say anything. Yui usually left her sessions crying, but feeling somewhat lighter, able to tell a third party everything she had on her mind without fear of being judged. She was making strides in PT as well, the tremor now just barely visible. Walking was easier, albeit she had all sorts of braces to help with stabilization, and Yui could brush her own teeth and feed herself once more without fear of spilling or choking. Yui was getting her independence back again.

The one thing they could not fix no matter how much they tried was the toilet training. The child simply could not feel when she needed to go and every time she tried big girl panties, Yui would soil herself within an hour or so. Ally vowed to redesign diapers in order to make them a more stylish apparatus, but she was still working on prototypes, having her hands full with so many things at once. Not to mention, Noise's visits to assist in their dancing and singing. They worked on it during every spare moment and Yui often went to bed so drained that she fell asleep as soon as her head hit the mattress. "Good job both of you!" She cheered, clapping her hands together. In a few more days they would be discharged from the hospital, then Ally would take them to their new apartment in Azabu.

"Don't worry Lulu, we have more cookies in the room," Yui assured her angel, smiling despite the fact that Luna seemed sad. "I'm sure Ren is waiting for us," he had not fought due to the fact that his ability was not combative. Instead, Leo had him make both large and small illusions, pushing Ren close to his limit. Not wanting to borrow light, he had stopped himself from going overboard, knowing it would make both himself, Luna, and Yui all suffer if he used too much of his darkness.

Luna was still pouting even after the fight was over and Yui was trying to comfort her back in the hospital room. It wasn't about the cookies, it was about that one specific cookie! Why didn't Yui understand, that one was more special because... well, Luna didn't really know why. But it was, and that was that, right? "It's not fair! You created both of us, but she's stronger? I'm the Angel!" Wasn't the Angel supposed to be the strongest of all? She was still sore too from all of the training Noise was giving them. Was it just her imagination or was Luna always given the hardest stuff to practice? It was because of hate, wasn't it? Everyone just hated her, that was why she couldn't get the most important of all the cookies.

"Stop being a moron." Noise snapped in the middle of training one day. They were almost going to be set free from the hospital, it would just be a bit more. Natsuo swung by to watch too but usually he was busy with Loki trying to identify the other Fallen Stars that had come here to the Earth layer. "It's not that I hate you, it's just that you have the most experience so I have to drive you the hardest if you're going to improve. You're not the Sinner, so there's no reason to hate you." Right. Sometimes it was hard to forget that she wasn't Aria. Every day her head span a little worse, sometimes she would just wake up and stare at nothing. It was always at it's peak every early morning and late at night, right after and before going to sleep. Whatever it was, it was probably nothing, right? There was no way she was going to become a Cocoon again, that was just silly.

The day of the discharge, Mizuki was hugging everyone. Raven was there too, and it was notable the two bright adamantium rings the two lovers were now sporting, shimmering like bright lights on their hands to signify their love. "Hey, Ronan." Mizu snickered, wiggling a finger. "Don't forget how Luna's staring at our rings. Buy her adamantium once it's time, you big loser." Ronan blushed deeply, shaking his head fervently. "N-no! We're not getting married!" He cried, flustered, as Leo helped Ally into the moving truck. Raven giggled as Mizu took false offence to that. "Are you dating my cute little sister without the intention of marriage? Are you just leading her on, you monster!" Ronan's blush grew deeper as he grabbed Luna and lifted her up suddenly like a princess. "Wh-what the heck! What are you doing?!" Ronan's face was brighter than two tomatoes. "One day, once we're both ready.... you'll walk her down the aisle, won't you?" Suddenly he grinned, blush never leaving his face. "Father Mizuki, please let me take-" Then suddenly Mizuki laughed out loud, the best kind of Mizulaugh there was. Ren of course was jealous, his heart hurt knowing he could never do the same for Yui. He would never be a man in her eyes.

Abazu was chosen as their new home because it was close enough so that Lia could commute to and from school as well and still live with them. "Oh, we forgot to tell you." Leo glanced at the two back seats. The middle row was for Luna, Ren, and Ronan. In the back, Yui and Lia sat as the truck drove along the pretty bridges of New Tokyo. "Lia's already advanced to higher levels relative to her age thanks to her proficiency so she'll be helping tutor you three. Especially you, Luna, since you're farther behind than Yui and Ren." The pinkette growled like a wild animal. "No! I don't want to go back to school again! I already know I'm stupid!"

Yui scratched her cheek, looking away. "Well, technically I didn't create either of you. Mayumi created you, Luna, I just made your body more solid." Yui wasn't sure what the name of the man that created Lia was. "And I sort of accidentally punished Lia by giving her a real body, but to be fair, she did betray my trust and nearly got me captured." So Yui, or rather, the momentary darkness within Yui, had acted independently, granting Lia a human body. "You're plenty strong Lulu, you sometimes just get ahead of yourself," just like Aria, who hadn't been very fond of thinking. Instead, she had always rushed right into the action, wanting to throw punches before asking who to direct her fury at. When Mizu was dying, she believed it was all of Japan at fault, when Yui was no longer Yui, she became the Queen of Hyperdeath without a second thought. Yui hoped that Luna would never travel down that same path of self destructive activity.

Noise was pushing them hard, but it was for good reason. Yui no longer had to use braces, her tremor having disappeared. She was mentally doing better as well, seeming to shine brighter. With all of the strides in improvement, Noise expected Yui to be a better dancer, but the child was hopelessly clumsy, often tripping over her own feet while learning their routines. Raven had written a song together with Ally and Damian for the three children to memorize, Mizuki coming up with the tune by using a game simulator on one of her gaming systems. Yui couldn't wait to debut it, already excited for the Baroness's cute costumes. "I just want to dance on stage and sing to the world!" Yui confessed, doing a twirl. "I don't want to share you with the world," Ren pouted, considering kidnapping his Queen to protect her from prying eyes.

On the day they were to leave, Ally presented Yui with the prototype for her big girl undies. "They're cute aren't they? Blue and white stripes are perfect for you," Ally declared with a smile, using a bionic skeleton so that she could walk. It was cool, a slim belt with two other belts that attached to Ally's legs, a small motor and a rotor allowing her legs to mimic walking, which gave Ally much more freedom. The design still needed some improvements, but to Yui, it looked good. "I can't wait to wear them!" Yui said excitedly, practically ripping her diaper off to try on the cute underwear. Ally helped her into the rest of her clothing, Yui doing a twirl for Ren and Luna as soon as she was out of the bathroom. "I can't wait to sleep in my own bed!" Yui said eagerly.

She sat in the back row with Lia, the clone acting mature as she suavely looked out the window. Her older counterpart was humming to herself, doing a little dance in her seat. Luna was not happy about any of this, she didn't seem all that fond of Lia, although Yui wasn't sure why. "Luna, Lia helping us is a good thing! It means we'll catch up quickly on all that we missed!" Yui had always wished to go to school, but she knew that it would never happen, being far too fragile and highly desirable, like a shiny diamond in a coal mine.

Luna was only really at her strongest when she had borrowed the light of nearly a hundred humans as well as Ren's. It was only then that she was strong enough to challenge a creature such as a Star, and even so it was Tarik, the Star of Gravity. It was a force she was naturally strong against, so it wasn't a surprise that she had been able to pull out a victory. "It's a bit of a drive, so feel free to rest up if you'd like." Luna was very tired after all the training and then everything else. A bit of shuteye did not sound like a bad idea at all. Ren turned his head to the window, sneaking embarrassed glances at Yui in the reflection as he did so. "Go to sleep, love." Ronan whispered in her ear. If he was more awake, the whisper would only make it harder for her to fall asleep, really.

"Finally, I broke enough of your guard to break through!"

What was going on? Why was she back in Paradise? "Where's Resplendia? What are you doing? Go back to sleep, stop causing trouble!" Why was Tarik messing around again? Was that why she was always so tired lately, why sometimes she just utterly blanked out. "The best part is that you haven't told anyone yet." Tarik smiled, grabbing her by the neck and pinning her down. "Give up control. Now. I'll be borrowing that body for a second." He looked crazed, almost demented. Was that what happened if you stayed in here for that long, listening only to a single lullaby the entire time? "Never! This is my body! This is my life, so get out!" She struggled, trying to fight back but then he pressed his hand against her special spot.

"Even in this fake world, you're sensitive there, aren't you?" Luna whimpered, trying to fight back. Why couldn't she hold her own? Why couldn't she get Ren's darkness to flow towards her? "Stop! Stop! Only Ronan's allowed! Please!" His fingers explored her childish body and she thrashed and kicked, air exploding out but he was too strong and she was just too exhausted. "There's nothing you can do. Give up. Humanity doesn't deserve saving anyways." She wasn't going to let him in! Never! No matter what he did to her here, it wasn't real! Then suddenly the landscape changed, to a strange sort of desert. There was a large iron cross and Luna was suddenly nailed to it. She screamed, toes curling as Tarik mocked her. "This is all so needless. Just give in, I mean no harm towards you."

But still she would continue to resist. Then someone else entered, Ren felt her calls for help from within the back of his mind, his connection to Paradise. "Stop hurting her!" He yelled, jumping on Tarik's back to punch and kick and bite at him. He wasn't a natural fighter but he would fight to protect his friends. "Just go away!" Tarik threw Ren off of him and then lifted him by the neck. Luna was dizzy, the nails in her wrists, in her ankles, she could't move even if she tried. "R-Ren..." She whimpered as Tarik lifted him up. "Admit it. You hate it too, you hate all the love around in this world, and how Yui can never love you."

Tarik's voice went right to Ren's ear no matter how the boy tried to resist. "Give in. Give me your body and I can grant your wish. I can have Yui truly fall in love with you." Ren was weakening, Luna could feel it. "No, Ren! Stop! Please, don't lose! Ren closed his eyes, letting Tarik in... and letting him out of Paradise via Ren's body and Luna could do nothing but cry.

Sleep? No, Yui was too excited to sleep! This was another adventure, after all! A new home, one that Ally had designed herself to have the smartest technology within it. Yui had never been to Azabu, although she did know it was the richest neighborhood in Tokyo, which meant that it was only apt that the Heiress had chosen it as their place of residence. Yui only hoped that it would last longer then their other homes. "Are Damian and Xavier close by? Can we visit them?" Yui asked, hopeful. "Damian and Xavier are in Hiro-o, so they're an eight minute train ride away. Either that, or a two minute regular drive, if there's no traffic." Leo answered for her, Yui's eyes lighting up once more. "They're so close! I hope they're happy!" Ally nodded, grinning knowingly. "They are, I bought them a perfectly nice house. They were looking at a single room apartment, but I just happened to decide to be suddenly interested in real estate," Ally snickered, having the ability to throw around money at whoever she wanted.

Ren and Luna both jerked in sync in their sleep, their tiny bodies seeming to have the same nightmare. Ronan stroked Luna's hair, trying to get her to settle down in her sleep. "It's alright," he whispered lovingly, "everything is going to be okay." Yes, there was peace, Loki was working on capturing the other fallen stars, the children were working hard to become idols. Yes, life was good, or at least, Ronan believed so. He leaned back in his seat, putting his hands behind his head. "Lia," Yui turned towards her counter part, something niggling in the back of her mind. "Can you feel love?" Yui asked quietly, knowing that Lia was very capable of feeling anger. Lia looked at Yui, tilting her head to the side, wondering what had brought this on. She was not a perfect clone, no, so perhaps if Lia could feel it, then maybe Ren could finally move on with someone else? "Yes," Lia admitted.

"That's great!" Yui grabbed Lia's hands, her clone was growing too, her body not confined by the starlight within her vessel. Lia was already taller, the height a sixteen year old should be. "That means you can be happy!" Lia seemed taken aback, perhaps even offended. "I don't think it's a good thing. Having all of these emotions is a burden," she sighed in exasperation, as though the very thought were frustrating. "But, that means you get to experience so many things! Like falling in love, raising a family, you get to get mad for no reason and can rage against the world for who knows what!" Lia sat back, perhaps never having thought of it that way. "There's still a lot I don't know," Lia replied quietly. "I haven't experienced the world the same way you have, I haven't decided whether its a good or bad place."

"But I do know one thing," Lia smiled, taking Yui's hands in her own again. "That you've shown me what it means to be human. There's so much more to this life than being a single minded robot and for that, I will always be in your debt." Yui blushed, scratching her cheek. "I was wrong," Yui replied quietly, "I went against your wishes, I hurt you." Lia shook her head, "I'll get over it," she winked, turning to look out the window. "Oh look, it's the ocean!" Yui giggled, her eyes sparkling.

Luna woke up with a snap. She needed to warn everyone because this was suddenly an emergency situation! Shaking off the effects of being back in Paradise, Luna grabbed Ren's throat, knowing it wasn't Ren, Ren had given up and was stuck in Paradise because Tarik had posessed his body. "Everyone!" Luna screamed as Leo swerved their truck, almost sending them off the bridge if not for his super quick reflexes on the brakes. "What the heck are you doing Luna are you a lunatic." Ally shook her head, eyes wide open in panic so bad that she didn't even hear the pun she had just made. Ren was grinning - no, Tarik, Tarik was grinning smugly as Luna acted out. "This is Tarik! While Ren and I were asleep he possessed Ren and-" A powerful force threw her back.

Ren's body moved, eyes glowing with a strange intent. What did Tarik want? What was his goal? Lie stepped into action immediately, setting up her harmonic barriers, one on each arm as if they were giant gloves, pulling Yui protectively to her. Cars were beeping, some people were yelling at them for the sudden traffic. But this was an emergency! "This is my body now." Tarik was back, his aura with fierce as he jumped out of the building. Somehow because of his soul he was able to access his same old gravity powers and Luna just barely blasted wind strong enough to get Yui and Lia out of the car before Tarik went it flying off the bridge with that almost regretful smile on his face.

Before Leo and Ally could plummet to their deaths Ronan was able to grab their waists with his blood tails, using another to reach up and cling to the side of the bridge, yanking them up while being careful not to hurt his passengers with the whiplash. "Get out of him." Ronan growled, blood tails unfurling, ready to strike at a moment's notice like a snake's bite. "Ren's our friend, so get out of him!" He shouted again, causing Tarik to tap the bridge. As he did so gravity intensified, causing the entire structure to collapse. "Why bother saving humans?" He asked with a shrug of his shoulders. "Lia! Get Yui away! I'll fight!" Even if she had to fight alone. "Ronan, protect Ally and Leo. I'm the strongest Angel so this fight is up to me." She drew on the light and darkness from the random humans around as she flew up, letting Ronan take care of rescuing all the people as the bridge fell to the waters below.

"Tarik! You awful excuse for a Star! How could you do all of this?" She flew at him, all of her attacks flaring with a sudden burst of power as she could feel the hopes and dreams of the humans riding on her. "Give me Yui, and no one has to get hurt. You wouldn't want me to, ah, break this body, would you?" Wait, he would do that? He would kill Ren? But even so - no, this had to be a bluff! "You wouldn't think of it. You won't be able to possess me, so you need him alive." Maybe Luna was stupid but when it comes to stuff like this, she was sharper than you'd think. "Minako." The chain dagger whirled into her hands with a gust of wind. "Let's take this snobby monkey down and save our friend!"

Yui had been so adorable only moments before Luna awoke, grabbing Ren in a choke hold. She was giggling about the ocean, excited to catch a glimpse of the sparkly sea. Her smile melted slowly, her eyes widening as the car swerved, the next few minutes happening in rapid succession. Lia grabbed onto Yui, pulling the child out of the car seat and into her barrier. The car was out of control, Ally and Leo screaming as the windows smashed, Lia pushing Yui through, protecting her. Ronan grabbed Leo and Ally by their waists, Ally's wheelchair plummeting off of the bridge and into the ocean. He got them back up, Ren and Luna battling above them, Lia setting Yui down on her feet. The child looked around, realizing that the ground was rumbling. Her eyes widened as her wings snapped open, reaching out for her clone. Lia grabbed her wrist, Yui beginning to light up in order to save the humans.

She pointed towards them, orbs of light sent out in order to catch the falling people and take them safely towards land. There were a lot of them, some still trapped in cars, others having gotten out in order to watch. "I can help!" Lia said, letting go of Yui's wrist, she fell towards the ground, maintaining a border around Yui while she made smaller ones to protect the citizens from falling debris. A news helicopter above them caught it all on camera, a live stream being fed directly to the news of Luna and Ren, two angels, fighting to the death in the middle of the sky. "Stop it!" Ronan called to them, "the public are going to get ideas!" They were ruining their image, which was something they had to maintain if they wanted to continue to be public figures.

"Ronan, it doesn't matter!" Yui called to him, she would take care of it, knowing she had to stop them. "We need to end this fight!" Yui was panting hard, having already used up plenty of energy in order to save her fellow Japanese citizens from falling to an untimely death. "Lia, get Yui out of here!" Ronan waved an arm in their direction, holding up a support beam with a blood tail. His hair was doing something strange, its salt and pepper quality slowly turning white. He let out a scream, using his tails to push the beam back in place. Leo grabbed Ally, knowing that they had to get out of here. A hole began to form beneath Ronan, who was rushing to get a child out of a car that was tipping towards the edge. "Ronan!" Yui screamed, her wings snapping shut so that she could dive towards him. He fell through, attempting to use a blood tail to catch himself. His grip slipped, both him and the child rushing towards the water.

"Ronan, hang on!" Yui screamed, her brother grinning. "Yui. Catch," he threw the child up towards her, Yui's wings snapping out once more as she caught the baby. "Ronan!" Yui screamed as he hit the water. Ronan didn't know how to swim, he had never learned how to. The only thing keeping him afloat in the Abyss had been Xavier, Loki, and his muscle density. Here, however, it would work against him, the salinity not enough to keep him buoyant. Yui flew upwards, looking for the mother of the baby, who was making happy cooing sounds. The woman reached out, screaming about her child. Yui placed the baby gently in it's Mother's arms. "Th-thank you! Thank you Goddess!" The human cried, falling to her knees.

"Yui, wait!" Lia called, but Yui was already setting off to save her big brother. She didn't know how the fight between Luna and Ren was going, but she expected her angels to figure it out. Yui was about to take her first plunge into the ocean, although she had never expected it to happen like this.

Above the bridge to Abazu the two Angels fought. Well, really it was Luna versus the Star possessing her friend. Tarik was twisting Ren's face in a grotesque way, reaching the boy's soul and pains due to posessing him like this. "Yui will never feel the same about me!" Tarik mocked in a very exagerrated manner, swaggering in the air. Luna grit her teeth, ready for a second strike. This needed to end now, she wasn't going to let him win! The Fallen Stars weren't allowed to win, not against the might of the Pink Angel! "If Yui won't love me then I won't let her love anyone! Because I'm Ren and the stars won't let her love anyone, not for real!" Was that how Ren truly thought? Luna too had a lot of thing she did not like about Cirque and the rest, and sure, while that was one of them... it was cruel to use it against Ren like this.

Screams happened all around them but still Luna didn't do anything to help. She trusted the rest of the team to take care of it, of course. That was when suddenly the entire bridge was lifted up into the air with a move of the arm. "Did you know? I can use gravity to do this." He scrunched his hand into a fist, causing the chunk of bridge with all the people on it to be crushed into a tiny point, too dense and too small to be seen. "What? Don't do that! I'll stop you!" The pinkette did a whirl and a slash, but Tarik kicked her away before gravitying her back towards him, hand on her neck. "None of this would have happened if you just handed Yui over right away. As her real big brother, I have rights over her."

Before Luna could do anything she was slammed into the bridge head first. Something broke in her skull and Luna felt incredibly dizzy and nauseous. "C'mere, let's go for a swim, Lulu." He thrust her towards the water and used a gravitational field to lock her to the sea floor. Sure, she had ena but that didn't mean she liked it down here. "Yui." Tarik grinned as the chaos unfolded around him. "Humanity does not deserve to live. So come, surrender to me and I'll stop hurting everyone here." Could Yui sense it, that a different soul was in charge of Ren's body now? Ronan had fallen and Yui jumped down to save him. "Don't save him, that worthless Knight of yours." Tarik grabbed Yui by the cheeks, holding her up as if she were a prize. "Humanity does not deserve a Star that shines as brightly as you do, sister."

Then something struck him on the head. A blast of energy from two shields harmonizing together. Lia was there, riding one of her barriers like a surfboard in the air. "You won't take her without going through me." Tarik's grin only grew wider as he altered gravity around her, causing the girl's legs to collapse in on her body. "Well, I guess as her mirror, you can come along with us." He pulled his arm and Luna was flung from the seafloor back up, the girl a bloodied mess in his arms. "Let's go continue our game somewhere else." With his four hostages and Ronan still drowning, Tarik flew them over to where he intended to take Yui in the first place. But after that, he was going to need to get his body back.

In the middle of her dive downwards, something collided with her, causing the child to float upwards. She flapped her wings, attempting to go down, to save Ronan, but someone grabbed her face, holding her up by her face, pinching her cheeks between his cheeks. "Let go!" Yui kicked, the force of gravity holding her in place. "I need to save him! Ronan can't swim!" Yui screamed, her words coming out funny thanks to the pinching. The child kicked her legs in an attempt to hit him, but the gravity around her had become so dense that it was hard to move. Yui couldn't so much as lift a finger and even when she tried to glow, the gravity around her grew denser, making it hard to breathe. Human bodies wer frail things, but Yui's seemed to be especially so.

"Let them go," Yui managed to whisper, "let them go and I'll go with you." But her words went unheard over the chaos. In the end, the person inhabiting Ren's body took them all, leaving Ronan to drown in the ocean. Her vision went dark, Yui felt as though she was choking, the air being pushed out of her lungs by the force of the air around her. Her body went limp, her wings shrinking until they were tiny, just barely fluttering in the wind behind her. Yui was supposed to be strong, she was supposed to defeat the darkness, so why did this keep happening? How was she supposed to defend humanity when she could barely protect herself? Had she not passed out, no doubt she would be kicking herself for being so weak.

When Yui at last awoke, she felt strange. Her body was heavy, weighed down by gravity. She attempted to sit up, but found that the very act was near impossible. She attempted to activate her light bearing gifts, but found that she could not, the room, or perhaps some other element, preventing her from doing so. The bed she had been set on was comfy, but the room was empty. There was a window, albeit small, it let in trace amounts of light, allowing the child to recharge underneath the somewhat warm bask. "Hello?" Yui managed, her voice barely above a whisper. The lights were on, her unmoving form surrounded by what appeared to be a large amount of plush toys.

Ronan was pulled out of the waters by the back of his shirt, the coast guard hauling him on board the ship, performing CPR to clear his lungs of the water he had ingested. Poor Ronan's lips were blue, his airway full of seawater. The ocean was not like the upside down Abyss, here, he sunk like a rock. Ally and Leo were waiting anxiously on the shore, the news helicopter having caught the entire fight live. There was already a riot of humans, a public outcry over the kidnapping of Luna and Yui, but there was nothing that they could do. They wanted light bearers, no, they needed light bearers, but those with light gifts had gone into hiding long ago, afraid of what the normal crowd would do to them.

Luna wasn't sure what was going on, really. Even awake she felt exhausted, her eyes just wanted to droop back down all over again. It was as if her brain was in a big fog, it didn't make sense. What was this dark chamber, and why was there a cross there, huge and big as if something was to be displayed? Her head hurt, it was something between a migraine and a headache and she wanted to vomit really bad. Still, the wind mage stirred because she had no choice. Upon first movement she actually did end up vomiting, spewing her guts on the floor. She just had no strength in her limbs at all, which was very bad considering the circumstances here. But what could she do? Maybe someone would have to come to the rescue, then?

Every little light was like a spear piercing her brain, every sound was like a bomb being set off right next to her head. Ringing, ringing, a harsh ringing in the poor girl's ears as she desperately tried to reorient herself. Then she heard the footsteps, far too loud for her hypersensitive senses. With sluggish movements she twisted her body to look at the blurred image of Ren standing over her. But it wasn't Ren, it was Tarik, and he was smiling at her as if he had been waiting a long time for this. "You know, normally I wouldn't have bothered capturing you." The gravity star told her but it sounded like he was screaming directly into her brain. "But you trapped me in Paradise with that horrid lullaby for days! How could you do such a cruel thing? So I knew that I had no choice but to get rid of you first so that won't happen again."

"I..." He smiled, patting her head which only made it hurt more. "Don't worry, you only have a terrible concussion. You'll be fine, just keep bashing your head." Tapping her head made it even more painful and Luna whimpered helplessly. She didn't know what to do, even as he stripped her and raised her wrist to the cross, hammer and nail ready for use. With a slam the hammer dug the nail right through her wrist and Luna let out a screech that echoed and hurt her head even more. He did it again to her other arm and her toes curled, legs tensing and crossing as she tried to fight back. Her ankles too, were nailed to the cross and Luna hung. "Let's have some fun, shall we?"

So Tarik fastened the cross to a chain and held it up so that she was suspended in the air. The girl could hardly process anything as this was happening, her brain too much in fog to make sense of anything. And then he waved his arm, gravity moving only in one direction in this room.... meaning she would be trapped spinning for who knows how long now. Already dizzy and weak, the girl continued to be spun. "Luna needs her head... please..." The girl sobbed as she twirled in the air. "Luna does not want... to be even more stupid..."

"Aww, our little sister is so cute and small," Yui felt nauseous, it hurt to breathe. She continued to try sitting up, her struggle in vein. "Tarik, lift the gravity a little," someone begged him. The veil seemed to rise, Yui gasping to allow air into her spinning mind. She sat up quickly, dots dancing in her vision. "Welcome back little sister," Tarik knelt down, brushing her hair out of her face. "You-are-not-my-brother," Yui gasped, weakly slapping his hand away. "Oh but I am, as a fellow star, well, ex star, we are all siblings." Tarik smiled, the girl beside him grinning, giving a little wave "This is another of your sisters, Heph," what a strange sounding name. "Hello baby star, I'm so glad I get to finally meet you," Heph shook Yui's hand enthusiastically. "Where's Luna? Where's Ren? And Lia? What did you do with them?" Yui asked seriously.

"Oh you mean the abomination?" Heph grinned, "we disposed of her. She cried a lot, but she didn't belong here. Don't worry, she's resting peacefully now." Yui's eyes widened, she felt sick. "This one," Heph picked up one of the stuffed animals Yui had been leaning on. "This one is her," Yui snatched the doll out of the ex star's hands, hugging it close to her chest. "Don't worry Lia, I'll change you back," Yui promised, her eyes welling up with tears. "I promise, you'll have your body back." Heph laughed, as though the very thought were preposterous. "I can't believe you fell for that!" That was not what Yui was expecting, "Lia is dead of course. Why would I turn her into a stuffed animal?" The toy fell out of Yui's hands, the child's eyes going wide. "Why?" Yui asked, trembling once more.

"Because she was a fake. We couldn't let her continue existing and taking your light." Tarik said as though he had done Yui a great favor. Yui choked back a sob, recalling Lia's words, how happy she was that she had been given a body after all. "Why did you do this? Why did you take me?" Tarik pat her head, Heph wrapping her arms around Yui in a hug. "Humanity does not deserve to be saved. They are a plague, a disease, and need to be wiped from the face of the earth." Heph rocked Yui back and forth, patting her head as she cried. "We will take care of you now, sister, until humanity rots and the world will end." No, Yui didn't want that, she didn't want an age of darkness to fall upon the final layer of the Abyss, earth.

"When Cirque was making you, xe asked each of the stars to give up a piece to put inside of you. Some gave confidence, some gave bravery, or laughter, but we did not want to. The humans had imposed this upon themselves and therefore, we should have let the natural cycle take its place. Instead, Cirque wanted to interfere, saying that it was Resplendia's final work and therefore, should be saved."

"We knew better though, we opposed Cirque and were cast from the Star Layer, just like anyone else you goes against xim."

"The humans are vile creatures, they are a plague, they destroy everything they touch. They nearly killed our dear Resplendia and yet, Cirque still wanted to save them. We could not allow it, but Cirque did not see it our way. Cirque never does, so we left our Heaven to gather evidence, but Cirque did not welcome us back when we returned. We opposed xim, we tried to show xim that the humans were cruel, vicious creatures that needed to be destroyed, but Cirque did not listen and instead, continued to build you." Building a star didn't happen overnight of course, it could take generations until all of the pieces were together.

"We will not allow you to suffer the way Resplendia did, Yui. You will be safe here, while humanity rots and when the time comes, you will go to the star layer and tell Cirque that xe was wrong about humans."

"No!"

"Yes," Heph and Tarik retorted together. "You will have all of the comforts of home here, do not worry, we will take care of you."

"Where are Luna and Ren?"

"The angels do not deserve your kindness, they are abetting Cirque's will, imposing it upon you."

"They're my friends!"

"You do not need friends." Yui shoved Heph off of her, attempting to run to the door. Gravity tightened around her, the child choking as she collapsed, limbs stuck to her sides. "Do not fight it Yui, we are not bad people, but we are not afraid to stop you."

So once again, Yui had been kidnapped. But this time not only Yui was kidnapped, but her Angels, and Lia as well. Raven had to come up with a strategy, and quick. Her strategy of course always came to mind very quickly. "Everyone, make sure Tarik doesn't get his body back!" They mobilized, while more secretly, Raven informed Xavier on Yui's location based on the GPS tracker. "I'll get them out, I'll break in and out before they know it." Raven tapped the former Branch Leader's shoulder as a final word while Mizuki gathered a team to fight against Tarik as the fallen star was obviously going to fight to get his body back. "Yui's the top priority, saving the others is of lesser importance." Raven instructed Xavier to make sure knew. He vanished, already on the way for the great rescue.

As Xavier went, someone tagged along with him, grabbing his shirt in the air. "Loki, what are you doing? Shouldn't you be helping the rest?" The reinstated Star of Mischief grinned, something twinkling in xis fingers, obviously up to something. "I'm here to help. You're up against Fallen Stars, likely Heph will be there. You won't be able to do it alone, not without a Star to distract them." Xavier grit his teeth as the two transported through the air to eventually reach Tarik's base. They had to wait, of course. Wait until the signal on his phone lit up, since that would show them Tarik had come to attack to take his body back. So they arrived, merely five miles away from Yui's radar bip - in range for a single of Xavier's jumps. "Well, thanks for the help. We'll save her together."

The blast door exploded as it's gravity became too dense for it to remain in it's form, opening a path easily for Tarik to enter, grinning as he flung bodies of Enforcers around the place as if they were toys. "Give it up, Mizuki. You're nowhere near as strong as the Star version of you." He tossed an enforcer at the wall, using gravity to speed up the process, causing it to break through the wall of the hospital. Someone jumped down then, flipping her hair stylishly. "Heh." Noise grinned as suddenly Tarik felt a stranglehold on his powers. The Star was not afraid of this, of course. He pushed through it, overwhelming Noise's power. "You think you can stop me? Think again!" Suddenly, his powers came back. He prepared his gravity to crush Noise's skull-

Then his powres vanished once again. The First Lady had arrived, wearing a stylish pink dress as she flicked her fingers to create a second nullification zone. On her wrist, she was borrowing Noise's ability. "Now you can't do anything. Natsuo, take him out!" From up above the floor moved to reveal lines of Enforcers, wielded with hand-versions of the Little Sinner airship's plasma cannon, all firing streams of plasma at Tarik, one catching his arm, causing it to burn up to the bone. "That's my body!" The Star of Gravity growled, stomping towards them. "You filthy humans won't get to keep it!" An electric strike hit him and he saw it from behind. The Empress had arrived, her railgun ready. "Don't understimate us humans, please." Raven smiled as she whirred up another shot. "Keep attacking! No mercy!" She yelled to her soldiers, knowing just how dangerous Stars could really be if pitied.

Luna was in trouble, Yui could feel it in her heart. As much as the child wanted to help her angel, she was at the mercy of Heph, who had the ability to make her thoughts a reality. It wasn't that the world skewed around her whims, more like, the world bent to her will. A powerful ability, Heph had been the Star of Creation, once upon a time. Therefore, she could do things the likes of which Yui had never seen. The child was currently tangled in ribbons, the stuffed animals around her holding hr down with uncanny strength. "We will protect you, our cute little sister," Yui struggled against her bonds, wondering why she couldn't use her powers in here, but Heph could. "You have more wonderful siblings to meet," Heph informed the child. "They are all different, one of them can absorb other powers and dispel them completely."

It was almost like a combination of Mizuki and Noise's powers, only, they needed to touch the user in order to disable their ability. "Give them back," Yui struggled, "Luna needs me!" The child cried, tears stinging her eyes. Sometimes, no matter what she did, she was never strong enough. Yui bit down on her lip, but without her abilities, she was just a normal girl. Well, normal was a relative word. If Yui could get Ren to activate her dark side, she might have the chance to escape and save Luna. "Do not struggle, it will hurt much less if you just accept it." Heph said, stroking Yui's hair out of her eyes. Despite her words, Yui continued to fight against the ribbons and bears.

"If I gave up, then I would died long ago!" Yui replied, biting through a ribbon. Heph watched as Yui managed to get the ribbons off, smiling ever so slightly. "You shouldn't do that," she conjured up rope this time, which snaked around Yui's body, tying each of her limbs to the bed posts. Yui thrashed, cursing herself. "Let me go! I need to see her!" Heph smiled, watching Yui as though she were a particularly interesting bug trapped beneath her microscope. "Forget Luna little sister, you do not need her." Yui shook her head, "you don't understand!" She cried, feeling the sting of bitter, hot tears once more. "I need Luna, she's my... she's my best friend!" Did LUna think of her the same way?

"Oh really?" Heph blinked, giggling, "because I'm sure she's glad you're gone." Yui would not let these words get to her. "Think about it, you steal all of the attention away, you shine so brightly, all eyes are on you. What about Luna's feelings though? What about her place in the world? I bet you've never thought about it. You're so selfish Yui, always making everyone fret over you," Heph's words were a reflection of Yui's worries. That Luna had never wanted this and had only taken the position to be nice, that Ren secretly despised her for becoming an angel, for being unable to return his feelings.

The child cried, tears stinging her eyes. Sometimes, no matter what she did, she was never strong enough. Yui bit down on her lip, but without her abilities, she was just a normal girl. Well, normal was a relative word. If Yui could get Ren to activate her dark side, she might have the chance to escape and save Luna. "Do not struggle, it will hurt much less if you just accept it." Heph said, stroking Yui's hair out of her eyes. Despite her words, Yui continued to fight against the ribbons and bears.

"If I gave up, then I would died long ago!" Yui replied, biting through a ribbon. Heph watched as Yui managed to get the ribbons off, smiling ever so slightly. "You shouldn't do that," she conjured up rope this time, which snaked around Yui's body, tying each of her limbs to the bed posts. Yui thrashed, cursing herself. "Let me go! I need to see her!" Heph smiled, watching Yui as though she were a particularly interesting bug trapped beneath her microscope. "Forget Luna little sister, you do not need her." Yui shook her head, "you don't understand!" She cried, feeling the sting of bitter, hot tears once more. "I need Luna, she's my... she's my best friend!" Did LUna think of her the same way?

"Oh really?" Heph blinked, giggling, "because I'm sure she's glad you're gone." Yui would not let these words get to her. "Think about it, you steal all of the attention away, you shine so brightly, all eyes are on you. What about Luna's feelings though? What about her place in the world? I bet you've never thought about it. You're so selfish Yui, always making everyone fret over you," Heph's words were a reflection of Yui's worries. That Luna had never wanted this and had only taken the position to be nice, that Ren secretly despised her for becoming an angel, for being unable to return his feelings.

❝With blue radiance, the bird wants to sing.❞

|| Weight of the World || Nier: Automata ||



Tarik grit his teeth. This body was too small, too weak. If he was in his normal body he could just charge through the field and then take out both of those girls locking down his abilities. But he couldn't, not in the body of this child. Suddenly the door Noise and Mizuki were guarding opened up, revealing a sealed container with Tarik's original body. "This is what you want, right?" Mizuki smiled. Clearly this was all Raven's plan, that damned Empress was getting in his way. How dare these humans think they were good enough to defeat a Fallen Star like this? But with the railgun at his back, ready to fire, it was obvious they were not afraid of sacrificing Ren for Yui's sake. "Put aside your petty thoughts of genocide."

But no, Tarik couldn't. The Baby Star was too bright, too good to have to serve such awful creatures such as this. Humanity was a blght, their only purpose was to die miserable deaths. By attacking and trapping him like this it was like ants swarming a human to kill it with tiny little measly bites. An insult, this was an insult to everything he stood for. "Pathetic, isn't it? It hurts, doesn't it?" Noise was making sympathetic expressions on her face as Natsuo roped down from the ceiling to hold her. "I knew you could do it." He gave her a quick kiss and she grinned. Filthy humans, what were they doing in the presence of a Star such as he, Tarik, the Star of Gravity! "Let's make a bargain! I'll kill that original body of yours." Mizu held in her hands a tiny remote, more than capable of activating blades in the box to cut his body to ribbons. "Unless you tell us Heph's weakness."

How did they know about Heph? Heph was one of Tarik's secret weapons, with her at the helm there was hardly anything these filthy humans could do. Was it Loki? Had that human-loving filth betrayed them? Of course he did, all he knew how to do was betray everyone. "Time's ticking." Mizu pressed a button and a blade swung down, cutting off the feet at the ankles. Because of the psionic bodily connection, Tarik could feel the pain in his own ankles and he fell, gasping, clutching at them. That certainly rose the First Lady's eyebrow. She grinned chillingly. "Tell us Heph's weakness or we can do this all day." Tarik was prideful, he did not want to admit defeat like this. But... there was nothing he could do. With the double field, he was out of luck. "Fine. Heph can't handle distractions. If she's disrupted, it takes a while to regain her thoughts, and her reality changes will disappear."

There was a crackle in Raven's ear. "You heard that?" Japan's Light Empress asked with a smile as Tarik was taken into custody by Natsuo and his Enforcers. Xavier gave his note that he did hear that. "Good. Bring Yui back, bring Heph here too, and then once that is done we can set Tarik free and give him his body back." Xavier noddded, shutting off the connection. "Okay, so we have to surprise her." He told Loki, who gave him a grin. They were right outside the base. "Loki, let's go! Yui first, then the rest!"

[❝In my own little corner, in my own little chair, I can be whatever I want to be.❞

|| Never Enough|| The Greatest Showman ||




"You naughty little girl, you went in your diaper didn't you," Yui's cheeks turned bright red, the topic still a sore spot. "N-no!" The child blushed, shaking her head. "Don't worry, your big sister will change you," Heph picked out a pair of cute underwear, turning it into a diaper. She changed it out quickly, Yui squealing and looking away the whole time, wanting it to end. "No wonder they call you the baby star," Heph snickered, petting Yui's head. "Th-that's not it! I'm not a baby!" She pulled against the ribbons, wanting to cry again. Yui couldn't though, she didn't want to prove Heph right. "It's nothing to be embarrassed about. All stars have weaknesses, this one just happens to be yours." Why couldn't she have a cooler weakness? Like an Achilles heel? Instead, multiple spinal fractures had led to this defect in her body that not even Cirque had been able to fix, having claimed that no star dust pieces would fit in the chip.

"Oh, it's lunch time, you must be hungry, I'll go make us something to eat," Heph smiled, exiting the room. With her gone, Yui took up her struggle once more, biting at the ribbon that were tying her limbs to each post on the bed. At last, Yui managed to remove one, she used her hand to tear off the second, then sat up to get the ones on her legs. The child had to move quickly if she wanted to save Luna, but it seemed that she was going to have to do it without the help of anyone else, the others no doubt frantically searching for her and Luna. Would they have found Ren's body by now? Was he in one piece? Did Tarik tear her friend apart? The thought made Yui sick. "Hang on Lulu," the baby star whispered, sprinting in the direction her heart told her to go. At last she made it to a room that her heart was telling her contained Luna.

Yui pushed the door open slowly, poking her head inside. She gasped in horror, running up to the cross where Luna was nailed. "Hang on Luna, I'm gonna get you out," Yui promised. The child looked around, grabbing the hammer and using the opposite end to pull the nails out one by one. "I'm almost done," Yui promised wriggling the nails out painstakingly slow. Even the baby star was growing frustrated at her pace, not giving up despite the fact that she felt like a sloth. "There!" Yui pulled the last one and held out her arms to catch her angel. "I'm gonna get us out of here, just hang on, alright?" Yui promised, draping an arm underneath Luna' body wanting to help her walk.

"Where do you two think you're going?" Heph entered, holding a lunch tray. "Just as I thought, I leave you for two minutes and you go off, trying to rescue people who don't want your help." Heph sighed and Yui stiffened, holding onto Luna tightly. Suddenly, she could feel her light flowing through her, the connection no longer cut off. It was time to test out the ultimate theory, miracle versus creations.

Most recent OOC posts in Re: Start

Re: Start

That word is hopefully correct. I mean I just made a new post so I hope so.

Re: Start

Word on the street is that we're alive again.

Re: Start

No, there will be no posting order.

I went in and did it for you, before you post, just copy and paste the code into the reply box.

Re: Start

Hey, I was just wondering if I forgot to do something in my post since mine lacks the whole character card portion at the top of it. And sorry if its something basic that I simply forgot to do since I rushed it a bit to get it done.

Re: Start

Hey, will there be a posting order?

Re: Start

Image

We will be starting tonight, but before you post, here are a few things you should know.

β˜› You have been in this world for give or take a month. While it may seem as though everyone died on the same night, in truth, everyone died around the same time. You could have been there a week longer, or maybe a few days less.

β˜› You do have memories of your last life, unless you've explained that your price is the loss of memories. You have the same soul, but a different body.

β˜› On the night of the full moon, your first faerie revel will take place. This will be the night the RP will start at. It is during this revel that you will discover the truth about your existence, that you've been chosen for a great journey to defeat Sorrow.

β˜› What is Sorrow? Sorrow is the personification of the grief, sadness, and loneliness of the world. Should you be succumb to these feelings and be swallowed by Sorrow, you too will become a dark puppet for Sorrow to manipulate. There are ways to combat this and return to normal, these will be discovered during the RP.

β˜› Have fun~

Re: Start

Hey Queen, you can go ahead and continue without me, you don't have to wait ok? You know the situation, so I probably wont be a major poster, I made Nyx and 'outsider' type because of that so there's no need to wait - I can easily just read over everything and catch up. :)

Re: Start

As of right now, we're awaiting on two people to finish their characters before we can begin. Squarenuggets is nearly half way done and Skykoko (Xue) who is hopefully beginning to finish up their bio. Thank you for your patience everyone, we'll be starting soon.

Re: Start

Yes Squarenuggets, there is one position open and it is that of the Changeling. You have forty eight hours to submit a work in progress in the CS which is posted somewhere in the OOC and five days to complete it. Please make a proper reservation if you wish to pursue the position.

Re: Start

Hey this looks extremely interesting and I was just wondering if anything else was still available.

Re: Start

Same here. He's done.

Re: Start

I have completed as well!

Re: Start

I've finished.

Re: Start

Allright I'll go for it. The WIP will be in tomorrow, but since it's Easter Sunday I probably won't be able to do a whole lot.

Re: Start

That would be a very interesting sort of haunting, I think you should go for it. Remember that once Sorrow is defeated the ghost will go away.

Re: Start

I was sort of thinking maybe he felt like he caused the death of a loved one, and constantly a ghost, or a voice would speak to him about how their death was his fault.

Re: Start

β˜› TrivuLED || You have one major ability and one minor ability, shapeshifting will have to be one of them.

β˜› Phantom's sword || I suggest you choose one emotion to discard, otherwise we'll end up with quite the dull Valkyrie

β˜› Afreerobin || What sort of haunting? Would he be haunted by something he did in his past? Haunted by Sorrow?

β˜› Victorant || A position may open, I'll be in touch if it does.

β˜› Mazamazari || The Destiny Price is yours.

Re: Start

Agh I'll take the Destiny Price :o

Re: Start

It seems like everyone is having quite some difficulty with finding a price so let me give you a few ideas:

β˜› Memory || Every time you cast a spell or use crucial magic, you lose one memory of your past.

β˜› Feeling || The lose of an emotion like sadness or no longer being able to feel happiness. You could also lose the sensation of pain and while this may sound beneficial, it is actually quite a dangerous condition.

β˜› Destiny || Every time you have a brush with death you lose a year of your life.

All of these conditions will be reversible once Sorrow has been defeated.

Re: Start

I apologize for that little disappearance, everyone's reservations seem to be in order so I'm going to put you all down. You have 48 to submit your WIP and five days to finish it. Failures to reply will be considered a strike and remember, three strikes and you're out.
