Torn Apart [ooc] ( )

Love. Something that everyone dreams of having.

Be the person fat or skinny. Tall or short. Male or female. Most people in the world want someone to love, and they don't want to live out the rest of their lives on their own.

When you hold love in your hands though, you treat it preciously, precariously. You don't want to break it, or lose it, and you just want to be with that person for as long as you live. When you're in love, everything changes in a perspective for you, that you can't live one day without seeing the face of the person you love, or just hearing their voice. To you, they're everything, and your world seems to revolve around that person.

For one couple, they are the apple of each other's eye. They live in a town called Falls Hill, really insignificant, but still big. The male loves the female more than anything else in the world, and the same goes for the female. She doesn't care that he's not rich, like she is, and that he's not from the good side of the town, like she is, and just ignores her parents disapproval because she loves him. He loves her too, and when they're together, he puts up a front that he doesn't care that they're not on the same level on the social hierarchy ladder. They met at university in their first year, and they've been together for three years now. She's a dance student who's parents paid for half of the university, and he's a lower class brain box studying law.

But behind closed doors, things aren't right.

He knows that they can't be together for much longer, but she has no idea about this. Sometimes, her boyfriend will come up to her with black eyes and broken fingers, and he'll just play it off once more, that he's been in a fight with someone stupid, or walked into something because he had been day dreaming. But in reality, he's being beaten up by bullies in the university that hate him, only because he's taken the beautiful girl in the school, and because of him not being rich, the bullies see that he doesn't deserve her. Coming from the bad side of the town means that he has been there all before. He's done drugs and smoked, both of which he has quit, and he's even been to prison, but only for two days at the most. This almost stopped him from getting into the university, but thankfully it didn't. He doesn't see why she loves him, even when she knows all of this, but none the less, he's still grateful.

But now, he's beginning to get threats from people that he's pissed off back when he was a bad boy. His own life has been threatened for a while now, but he hasn't been to bothered about it. However, now, their staring on threatening the life of his beautiful, unsuspecting girlfriend who is just there to love him. They can't be together any more, just so that she doesn't get hurt because of him.

So, he goes out one day, telling her that he'll be back later after settling a few things, and after kissing her on the lips one last time, he heads outside, grabs his car keys and drives. He's arranged a showdown with the bastard that kept threatening the lives of them both, in a near-by barn. He's already rigged it with explosives, and it all ready to kill both the guy and himself. However, his plan goes wrong. The barn does blow up, but neither are killed, just badly injured. Still seeing it as his chance to let her have her life back, he runs - away from the scene, and away from her.

Later on that day, the police arrive at the university, and an assembly is called. They announce the death of the boy, and send their condolences to his girlfriend. All eyes are on her now as she cried, grieving over the loss of the man that she loved.

FIVE YEARS LATER.....

After finding out that her boyfriend was dead, she quit the university, having no passion to dance any more. She loses all respect from her doting parents who gave up on her ever having a normal life or relationship again. She turns bad, going slightly off of the rails without someone to keep her sane, and leaves her home, turning to a life of crime. She's a good criminal though, never getting caught and living a normal life through the day, working as a waitress. Then, at night, she turns sinister, becoming a relentless murderer, killing people that had pissed her off or been cruel to anyone (such as rapists walking free) to take out all of the frustration of her past life. Then, a new person comes to town, killing people that she hadn't thought of before. Have a guess who it is....

After the barn accident, the guy ran and ran, until he was finally taken in by a group of criminals. They taught him everything, from handling weapons, to breaking into jewelry shops. After changing his last name and dying his hair to hide who he really was, the now bigger group of criminals return to his old town of Falls Hill, and they begin to reek havoc on the place. But one day, he bumps into someone that he didn't expect.. with blood on her hands..

~*~

If you've got this far, then you must be interested, right? Good ^^
Okay, so that actually looks a hell of a lot longer than anything I've ever done before haha. If you want to join, but don't get the general plot line, then just send me a PM and ask me any questions :)
It's a bit different from my usual sweet roleplay, more twisted and dark. But I like this idea :) Love can be in any of the friends by the way - like one member of the group of criminals could be in love with another in the group. You'll just have to PM the person first ^^

Here's my character list that I need:

Main Guy//Aaron Gregory Falkland//TAKEN ~ Imagine That! [Y]
Main Girl//Bessie Anne Earnshaw//TAKEN~ SilentButterflies [Y]

The group of criminals that look after the main guy:
Female Thief//Miranda Colleene Mayer//TAKEN ~ Nerezza [Y]
Male Arsonist//Jason Henry Gorski//TAKEN ~ Rawrr [Y]
Female Forgery Artist//Layla Fatima Abdul-Basir//TAKEN ~ HeartClutch

Name: Jason Henry Gorski
Image

Nickname: Jay
Age: 28
Role: Arsonist
Gender: Male
Orientation: Typically into car sales, driving stolen cars from America to either South America or Canada.
Relationship status: Single, catch me if you can
Personality: Jay's a difficult individual to understand; yeah, he acts like your usual asshole-bastard-fuckface sort of guy, but his very perspective on life was with no morals, no manners. He's got a short fuse in him, an even shorted attention span; it's why he hasn't had a long-term girlfriend since he was a teenager. He's demanding and seeks power and seniority over others. The only people he's close to is the group of criminals he's with, his sister and her best friend. All together, Jay's not one to look at consequences, he looks at the numbers, counts the zeros and if it's good enough for him, he'll do whatever to get that amount. One would expect the man to be different when caring about someone, and his sister with her friend can tell those people otherwise; he's just as much an asshole to them as he is to a complete stranger, the difference is minuscule, invisible, he hasn't kicked them out yet, has food in the fridge and even bought them things they needed. Sometimes though, the girls are immensely frightened of the person he can be when he's angry.

Likes: Explosions, One-night Stands, Weaponry, Malboro Reds, A good bottle of Whiskey.
Dislikes: Clingy women, Silence, Mornings, Cops, Waiting.
Phobias?: Getting a girl pregnant, that's the only damn fear he has.
History: Jay is Polish, his parents having moved out to Canada before he was born; so all his life he lived up above in the hockey country. His parents were cold individuals, clearly European. It was very rare that they'd give Jay a hug or a kiss on the cheek, he didn't get flowers when he graduated, he got small, unimportant presents that he needed rather than wanted; overall, they were nonexistent in his life, just the titles that they bore, Jay respected them, but didn't love them. Eventually, when he was 18, right after graduation, he moved out of his parents house, he moved to America, to a big bustling city, found some good friends who rolled with the wrong crowd and got virtually sucked in. From then on, he participated in criminal events, and basked in dirty money. When he was 26, his little sister, at age 16 moved in with her best friend, both girls having been kicked out their homes for basically being trashy. The girls(His sister is the blond one) have been living with Jay for two years already, both have jobs, sleazy boyfriends and work to help Jay pay off rent, which isn't needed most of the time because he gains enough cash to live in luxury- dirty cash that is. For the last eight years, Jay has been an Arsonist, not only does he set fire just for the damn hell of it, but he likes to explode buildings, sometimes he miscalculates and blows up buildings with people in there as well. Ooops.

Name: Bessie Anne Earnshaw
Nickname: Bess
Age: 23
Role: Main Girl
Gender: Female
Orientation: Heterosexual
Relationship status: Single

Personality, before: In a word, Bess was a sweetheart. She'd always had that inner lovliness that seemed to radiate from her form, hence why so many people were drawn to her. She hardly ever had a bad word to say about anyone, even if they were seen as doing something wrong in her eyes. She'd simply take them to one side and speak quietly to said person, rather than kicking up an awful scene as a lot of people may have done. She always treated everybody with the respect that she wished to be treated with and cared for anyone, regardless of where they came from. That's why she never bothered about loving Aaron so much. Bessie always saw past a person's roots. What mattered to her was the person that they were, what was on the inside rather than anything material or based on past events.
Bess was also very reliable, always very trustworthy. Give her a time to turn up at and she'd be there bang on the dot. Although, one thing that could always be seen as a flaw in her was her sensitivity. She'd always had an oversensitive personality, resulting in tears at the slightest problem or the happiest situation for that matter. But then, this just seemed to make people love her all the more; they saw her as a delicate flower that needed protection and love to stop it from wilting.

Personality, afterwards: This time in a word; Introverted. Bessie's withdrawn from the world and everything in it - she doesn't want to know. Ever since Aaron 'died', her world was plunged into darkness. Everything that she used to see as good in the world had turned it's back on her. All those people at university that used to care for her, turned out they were secretly bullying her boyfriend behind her back. She blamed them for what happened.. and now they're no longer living. She is, honestly, a heartless murderer who no longer sees human life as something to be proud of. She doesn't want to live, if it means that she has to spend any more waking moments without the man that she loves.
Bess hardly speaks any more, only putting on an act when she works the café during the day time. She's dark minded and her thoughts are yes, slightly twisted. You could call her a little mental if you thought about it, but she just sees herself as trying to serve a great injustice, to put right all of the wrongs that she didn't know about. Oh and don't forget the self-loathing to go along with all of that. She blames herself for Aaron's departure; why didn't she see what was going on? Why was she so blind? Because she was stupid, that's why. An idiot. It's going to take a lot to melt this new found icey core of hers and break the armor that she's built around her heart.

Likes:
+ Revenge
+ A good book; as long as it's not romance
+ Classical music
+ Night time
+ Rain
+ Cats
Dislikes:
+ Anything romantic (Love songs, romance novels, people kissing in the street, etc)
+ Her daytime job
+ When her friends try to talk her out of murder
+ Sports cars
+ Dogs
Phobias?:
- Fear of sleeping (Brings on bad nightmares..)

History: Bessie Anne Earnshaw was born in the summer time to Edward and Cathy Earnshaw. Her parents were successful business people, her mother the editor of a top women's magazine, her father, one of the very best bankers around. When their daughter was younger, the two new parents found themselves struggling to look after her, as well as keep their nine till five jobs, so they hired a nanny to care for her as she grew. As a child, Bessie could never really understand why her parents were never there, but she hardly every complained when they sent her lovely toys back from where ever it was in the world that they were visiting that week. She would have become a extremely spoilt had it not been for her nanny being the grounded older lady that she was. She brought up her ward as a well rounded young girl, with a passion for dance, even at that age. Her parents always paid for her ballet lessons, which she continued up until high school, where she began to get into more modern styles of dance.

In the next couple of years, Bessie really blossomed in every way imaginable. Her personality developed, that kindness sparkling through her like a beacon, her dance career took off, earning herself small parts in local theatre shows. She even discovered boys at the age of fifteen, when she aquired her first boyfriend. He was a rich kid, like her and as you can image, her parents deeply approved. Although, it was two years later when Bessie learned that he wasn't all he was cracked up to be and found him in bed with another girl on her seventeenth birthday. It hit her hard, the betrayal and a snippet of what she didn't know was to come came through for a couple of weeks after that. Bessie became an introvert, and although she didn't murder or anything like that, she shocked herself by having some pretty dark thoughts about what she'd like to do to the bastard that broke her heart.

It took her a good month to get over that boy, but when she did she reformed back to her normal, bubbly self and threw herself into her dance studies until the end of high school. After that, she persued her career at university... which is where she met Aaron Falkland and her life changed forever. She didn't care if he wasn't rich, she didn't care if he was from a crappy side of town. He was everything that she'd ever wanted and more.. and he loved her back. Although, she could never understand why someone as wonderful as him would love someone like her; see, she even had a lack of self-confidence then! But anyways, she didn't question it and fell for him - hard. So much so that she was heart-broken when her parents didn't approve. Being the caring thing that she was, she couldn't understand why his lack of money mattered, or where he came from. It frustrated her, because if they just gave him a chance, got to know him like she had then she'd been sure that they'd grow to love him. That never happened however, and although her parents didn't argue with her about it, they didn't exactly hide their disgust either.

When Aaron first began to come back to her with bruises, Bessie believed his excuses. It was only when they became more freqent that she suspected something more of happening and tried to question him further about his injuries. It was to no avail, however, and she stayed none the wiser to what the uni bullies were doing to her beloved. When they waved at her in the corridors, she'd stay completely blind to the sneers that they then offered her other half. Apart from Aaron's wounds, she thought that life was perfect.. until her heart was ripped from her chest, stamped on and chucked into an incinerator.

When her boyfriend was announced as dead... Bess took it badly to say the least. She crumbled, cracked up completely. She wouldn't leave the house, she wouldn't eat, sleep, talk, anything. Her parents finally got sick of their daughter and admitted her to a mental ward, but she walked out three days later and they found her wandering around in the rain late that night. Deciding it'd be best to leave her to her own devices (because they couldn't handle the shame that she was bringing upon them), Edward and Cathy Earnshaw bought Bess her own flat, furnished it and then just left their daughter to get on with life. Or rather, they disowned her until she could pull herself together. It was the next night that she finally flipped and committed her first murder.

During the day time, one of the bullies, who she didn't know had actually tortured Aaron at that point, came around to her flat to try and comfort her. He ended up admitting everything though, for one reason or another and Bessie took out a kitchen knife and that was that. She didn't mind having his blood on her hands, he had after all, been part of her love's down fall. After disposing of the body and any evidence that led it to her, Bessie took revenge on each of the people who'd ever done anything to hurt her or Aaron; the only people she couldn't bring to kill were her parents, simply because they were related to her. Bessie dropped out of uni, got herself a part time job in a café and made herself some new friends along the way, all of whom could provide her with the right equipment she needed to kill all the people in her town that she deemed as evil. And this is where she's still at now.


I hope you like it Batman <3 :]
