| Kacey Rose Odetta|
"The security guard’s name means ‘vigilant’...ha. Not. Is this some cruel joke?!"

| Nickname: K.O. |
"Why? Sure, those are my initials, but it’s not like I knock people out...often...heck, just call me ‘Kace’. And, yes, I know there are hundreds of stupid nicknames you could give me, but try one, just one, and I’ll have a reason to be called ‘K.O.’."

"If you thought anything else, then you need a therapist."

| Age: 16 |
"I’m tougher than you think for a 16-year-old."

| Sexuality: Straight |
"...you think I’m queer or something? You want to see queer, just go look in a mirror. That face is queer enough to be in a circus sideshow.”[i]

| Race: Colour |
[i]"Do I really have to say something about every personal fact? I’m a colour. Just don’t tell the Primes."


| Colour/Role: Blue |
(This is only for People with Roles)”Studies show that it’s the most common favourite color because it’s so calming. Hardy-har-har. Yeah, that SO fits me."


❝On the outside.❞



Image | Eye Color: A sort of orangey brown |
"CUT IT OUT WITH THE PICTURES!! I’m running out!”

| Hair Color: Very dark brown |
"Yes, despite what all the other pictures implied, I AM a brunette. Sort of."

| Height: 5’4” |
" Yes, I’m short. Laugh all ya want, but that doesn’t change the fact that I could totally beat you in a fistfight. If I wanted to do. Which I don’t."

| Weight: 113 |

| Physical Description: A bit pale, slim, “petit”, small hands and feet. She usually wears a short-sleeved, white button-up shirt, a knee-length black or light purple pleated skirt, and a black, waist-length coat. |
"I’m not going ANY further than that. It’s none of your business."



❝Interests”



Image[color=choice of color]| Likes: Candy, stars, scaring people, reading, karaoke, cosplay. |[/color]
”I SAID NO MORE PICTURES!!”





[color=choice of color]| Dislikes: Cauliflower, haunted houses, geometry, being rushed, most foods, bossy people, being forced to scour the internet for similar pictures...>:| |[/color]




| Strengths: Climbing, sneaking around, yelling at the top of her lungs, knife fights, confusing/distracting people with speech, singing, sewing. (Those do NOT fit together...) |





| Hobbies: Making cosplay outfits, reading, carving weird stuff on trees, practicing sword-fighting with Green, giving people scary smiles until they scream and run, putting whipped cream in the beds of people who make her find lots of anime pictures that look like her. |




| Fears: Zombies, being alone in a dark house (or anywhere dark, really), large open flames, being in situations where she can’t help for fear of making things worse. |




| Flaws: Her sharp tongue, slight (?) temper, and unwillingness to work with a team. |




| Weaknesses: Cute boys (pathetic), comments about her size, threats to innocent people, intense heat. |





❝On the inside❞



Image| Weapon(s): Her fists, two sharp short swords she uses like daggers. |]

"These weapons are BOSS, I tell you."


]| Powers: Telepathy (mind talk) and Telekinesis |
"These are the best powers EVER for scaring people. Heheh."

| Personality: She's pretty confident, but still prefers to be alone. This causes frequent talking to no one, which is, admittedly, a little concerning... Kacey also loves pranking people who tick her off using her powers, and she's a little cruel that way. But other than that she has a decent sense of humor, and loves making people laugh. When she's alone, though, she's thoughtful and quiet (except when she's having a one-sided conversation). She'll always sacrifice herself for her friends, if there's no other choice, but if there is, she'll find a way to save everyone. |
"Can i be done now? Please?"



❝Welcome to my life❞




Image

[color=color choice]| Romantic Interest: Maybe Shounen....a little...but her real true love is Mori (OHS). |[/color]
"If anything, I should have one of those t-shirts with the boxes for "single" "in a relationship" and "mentally dating an anime character", with the latter checked off."


[font=font choice][color=color choice]| Family: A little brother who's constantly getting on her nerves, a dead older sister, and a father and mother who live in Seele. |[/color]
"Wow, they must love me so much if they dumped my brother and I with a rebel group."


| History: Kacey was born in Seele. Her father was forced into the army when she was young, and for a while she lived with just her mother, younger brother, and an older sister. Kacey looked up to her sister and when she got sick with CV, Kacey stayed by her until she died, trying to make her as comfortable as possible by telling her jokes and talking to her. Unfortunately, afterwards, Kacey caught the virus as well. Her mother locked her in the basement so she wouldn't get the rest of the family sick, but after 10 hours Kacey was still alive. Her father came back from the army and, fearing she was still contagious, sent her to live with the other colors, whom he thought were other contagious children living in quarantine. Her little brother followed her, though (I might make a form for him later but for now he kind of only exists in Kacey's interactions with him). |
(Please tell how you became a Colour or Prime)"....."

| Opinions: (Now that I've read some of the character bios, I can actually answer this question) "Eh...Elysia's too hyper, Red's weird, most of the primes are creepy beyond belief, but I kinda like Gray's attitude. Hei's too emotional, Shounen's a perv, but I guess he's kinda cute.......Kanade hangs around me a lot, but she's nice. Probably the only one I'll actually talk to." |


| Other: Her favorite manga/anime are Ouran Host Club, Blue Exorcist, and Inuyasha. She actually has a nice voice (this seems to be a common characteristic of all my characters -_-'). |
"That's where I get my cosplay outfits, in case you were wondering. Which you probably weren't."

Kacey paced back and forth in the cramped cell where she was being kept with the rest of the Colours, thinking. It's not like there was anything else to do in this concrete hellhole. With her telekinesis, it should be a simple matter to break out of here, but, by some trick of science, the Primes had temporarily disabled the Colours' abilities. So she just marched from wall to wall, dwelling on whatever she could to keep from hopelessness.
I wonder how Tristan's doing? Kacey thought. I bet he's building a fort in the living room. It is raining, after all, so he couldn't be playing outside... Smiling vacantly up at the ceiling, she muttered "He always used to do that with Juliette." The thought of her sister, dead from CV, caused her to sigh and sit down, having finally found something to settle on until someone came to rescue them. She knew someone would.

*************************


A memory came to mind, of Juliette helping Kacey sew a frilly princess dress. Look, you attach the sleeve here, and when you're done, you tie it in a knot, her sister had said. She had showed Kacey the knot and Kacey had made a face, saying that it wasn't a very pretty knot for a princess dress. Laughing, Juliette had told her that, if it wasn't pretty enough, she could make it a bow. Here are the bunny ears, she had said, demonstrating, and they go around the tree and down the rabbit hole. Now, absently, Kacey pulled a blue ribbon out of her pocket, beginning to tie it in a bow. "The rabbit goes around the tree...and down the hole." Finishing the bow around her finger, she let out a breath and leaned back against the wall. If Juliette could talk to her now, would she be angry that Kacey had survived and she didn't? Or would she tell Kacey that she had survived for a reason? Probably the latter. She had never been known for holding grudges. That's why she was the perfect sister. Turning her face away from the others and rubbing growing tears in her eyes, Kacey wished, for the thousandth time, that Juliette were still alive. Not just for her, but for Tristan. He had been young and didn't remember much about his first oldest sister, but he did miss her from the memories he did have. If she were in Kacey's situation, what would she do? Probably try to comfort the others. Why couldn't Kacey be more friendly, like her idol had been before -- no, even when she was sick, she had apologized for missing her friends' birthdays, and tried several times to leave the house to visit her boyfriend. Another way Kacey longed to be like Juliette....for now, though, she would have to settle for protecting the others from the shadows. That is, if they ever got out...

Takano Hiroki


"The fuck-" Takano was distracted by the large noise going off. Intruders."This would be easier if I knew who the person was." Takano thought aloud. After a few passwords he'd entered into the program. He could take a wild guess that Red was behind this but it would be messed up if it wasn't and he ended up making her do something for no reason. Not that Red was necessarily a easy target. Her will was comparable to Eiens, though unlike Eien- Red isn't impossible to control.

As much he would love to work from his sanctuary it seemed he'd at least need information. This was about to get complex. Takano reflected for a second on the situation. He came to the conclusion of if he wanted to remain anonymous he'd have to use the power he didn't like using.

"Winds that gently blow send me the conscious whispers of man." Takano said, he specifically phrased it so the winds should be subtle enough that it wouldn't seem unnatural. His hair began to sway in the soft breeze as he heard clips of voices "Red..... how are.....seriously heated..." "Go!.......Hei.." "...colours.." His suspicions were confirmed and Takano smirked to himself as he typed.

Ultimate Hack
Command(Hei Eos):Stop all movement:End Command
Command(Evening Avalon):Stop all movement:End Command


He knew that Hei would stop for a fact, if even for a fraction of a second. It was Red he worried about. His plan had complications as well, there was no telling how long the two would stop moving. If they only held still a few seconds to a single minute and a Prime doesn't arrive they'll know who's behind it and keep on guard making it less likely for another suggestion to be successful. But Takano was ready for that and had already formulated about 6 backup plans depending on their reaction. In these plans he included the chance they could of felt the wind and were suspicious. Just another day at the fucking office right?

Kanade Hoshizora


Kanade snuck tucked and rolled her way into the hide out just as the alarm began to blare. She'd heard the messages that Red had sounded and was happy to be able to protect her. Kanade's view of her only got better at these bold acts she took. "Summon." She put her hands together and as they spread apart a Submarine gun appeared in her hands.

She spotted Hei and Red as she entered into the range of fire. A guard grabbed her by the crook of her elbow and said a smart comment about children and her size which was barely audible above the gunfire. Kanade spun around and stuck the gun in his mouth. "You died in combat, a honorable death." Kanade closed her eyes and suppressed a smile. Death isn't funny. Get a hold of yourself.

Kanade used her free hand to lift up her eyepatch, revealing a bright golden eye. She stared at the man, searching his memories. She saw his past since his death was confirmed. Her eyes opened wide at the day of past she received from him. This man had interacted with Grey and alerted him about the escaping prisoners. Kanade fired the gun. "Kacey!" Kanade ran past Hei, "Sorry I'm late, I'm going to help the rebels still imprisoned." . She soon ran towards Kacey who was in a nearby cell just around the corner. After summoning a bomb that killed the prisoners guarding her and broke the iron bars she grabbed Kacey and pulled her out.

She dearly hoped Grey didn't find them in time, he was the one person who brought the insane out of her like no other. She couldn't loose control and hurt Kacey, no matter how Kacey felt about her she'd always felt the closest to her. The other person she hoped wouldn't come was Arda. It had to be some sort of treason against Colours to have any feelings other than hate and dislike for a Prime. As long as Grey and Silver stayed out of the way they'd both be... relatively fine. Kanade pulled her eyepatch down, "We need to run. Grey is coming."

"Oi, who the hell is Eve walking with?" Shounen asked, staring at a guy, a little younger than him, walking with his non-blood-related sister. He always got envious when people hung out around Eve, especially if it was a male.

"It's Jin. You haven't heard of the guy? He's a genius with the piano!" One of his friends said, putting an arm around his neck, but in an actual friendly way since Shou was dressed as a guy, for once, rather than that beautiful tall female he'd often dress up as, just for the fun of it.

Shou let out a little snort when Eve smiled around him and gave his friend the cold shoulder as he grabbed his school bag and headed in a direct direction, "I'm going home. See you tomorrow." He said simply, a very dark and angered look in his eyes. In many ways, he was territorial, especially towards his first friend, and, strangely, his first one-sided love.

It was only a few more weeks that he became insanely jealous, trying to get the girl's attention by doing something stupid or running to her in between classes in the hallway, but every second he tried to get to her, he always saw him with her, making him even more jealous and frustrated. Unfortunately, this went out of hand as he pursued her attention even further, going to the extremes.

After that week, he gave away his virginity to a young girl, who had once confessed to him when the two were in sophomore, and he decided to take advantage of that. But that didn't grab Eve's attention either, and so he continued. While Shou was straight, he began to sleep with various people just for the sake of Eve's eyes to be one him, for once, no matter if it was in a positive of negative way, but in the end, none of it matter since he was just abandoned in the end. Because one day, Eve disappeared, and Shou never saw her ever since that one day in high school that she didn't return.







Shou, outside the building, was wearing a hood over his head, and swinging his legs off the tall building he was on top of. Shou never exactly had any interest in getting too much into any action, so he preferred to watch from the outside. That was when his abilities and the little doll he got, Mayu, came to be handy.

While some people who observed him thought he was insane for being up on the building, little did they know that he had one of his eyes closed; his normal brown eye, without contacts this time, was closed while the one with his abnormal second pupil was open. With this, he was staring up at the sky, but what did he see?

Shou didn't see any sky. No, instead he saw the insides of the building the Prime's were currently inside, and living inside of it, "Alright then, Mayu, time to make yourself useless, yeah?" He asked himself, as, through his one eye, saw where his doll was walking.

She was most likely on the third floor, Mayu the doll, that is, but Shou couldn't be certain. He had to find the elevator. It was a strain on him a bit since Mayu was quite far away and he had to move her, but nevertheless, it wasn't too much, so he proceeded. Whenever he sensed a human coming near, he'd drop Mayu on the ground, as if a child threw it at the wall and just left it there. While the little doll did get a few stares now and then, no one suspected that a Colour was watching from the outside.

A few more minutes of walking, Shou, somehow, managed to find an elevator, "Bingo~" He called out to himself on the roof of the building, nearly falling off that one time, which he didn't pay much mind to. A little while later, the doll he used as a spy was headed for the prisoners who were taken captive. Shou really didn't have much of a job as a Colourless, mostly just doing things like some research, watching, or messing around, but he had his times when he wanted to get in on the fun also.

He spotted Hei, Kanade, Kacey, and some red-haired person, someone who looked familiar, but unknown. He presumed that person to be one of them since Hei appeared to be speaking to him (he always depicts people as males if he doesn't know their true gender.)

Apparently, they were currently letting out the prisoners, but unfortunately, he couldn't hear a thing through Mayu. The only sense he had through her was sight, but not hear or scent or anything of that sort, "Test, test." Shou said through a mic near his mouth, which he adjusted so that it was on and Hei could hear him through her earphones, which he handed to all the Colours he wanted to keep up with their actions also, "Yo, Hei." He called, now opening both eyes, causing the doll he controlled inside the prison to fall to the ground, lifelessly, "How are things going on your end huh?"

The sound of the door opening, caused Eien to go into attack mode. He cursed himself that he didn't bother to lock the door, just because he thought no one would enter the room. Without a single sound one by one shadow monsters appeared behind him. They all had glowing red eyes, with drool dripping from their mouths. They bared there teeth at the one who was about to enter the room. As they were about to attack Eien heard a familiar snicker, and quickly called off his monsters. He watched as the one who had entered the room was Ven.

A sigh escaped Eien's lips as he was glad it was just Ven, "Did I interrupt any brotherly love?"

Eien growled lowly as he hated it when Ven teased him. Avarna on the other hand enjoyed Ven's remarks, it made him happy to have some more company with him. "Ven!" Without warning Ava raced toward Ven, and embraced her in a welcoming hug.

Eien sighed as he noticed how happy Ava was. This discouraged his raising rage, and soon he no longer had the heart to yell at Ven. His silent thoughts were interrupted by Ven's question,"I'd hate to be called an eavesdropper, but what is this of the Colours?"

Avarna wasn't paying attention as he was to happy about the fact Ven came to visit him so late at night, so she directed the question toward Eien. He looked Ven in the eyes and spoke, "Well Altid had captured some rebels and Colours when he was on patrol in Kano. I was going over there, after I came to visit Ava. But somehow Ava found out about the prisoners, and I promised to take him with me to see them as long as he was hidden."

After answering her question, Ven started to tease Eien once again, causing his eyebrow to twitch in annoyance, "And shouldn't the two of you children be sleeping? Especially you, Avarna; if some by passed, such as me, were to find you, things could get complicated, perhaps."

Before Eien could say anything, Avarna was already speaking, "Well, I wasn't really tired. So I called brother from his meeting. Besides you don't have to worry about people seeing me anymore, cause soon, everyone is going to see me."

Ava was about to ask Eien a question, when he felt an attack of emotions. It hit him like a bullet, and he fell to the ground. "Avarna?!" Eien ran over to his brother. Quickly bending down, he looked Ava in the face. A shiver went down Eien's spine as he saw a cruel smile displayed on Ava's lips, "Hey...Eien...Something fun is going to happen."

Like magic the alarms sounded all around, and a horrid noise echoed throughout halls. Eien cursed under his breath, "What is going on?"

He looked toward Ven, who shrugged her shoulders unknowingly. Eien quickly went into thinking mode. He was sure that it was Altid who ordered the alarm to sound, but why? Eien looked over at Avarna, who seemed to be in a happy trance.

He's feeling a lot of emotions.

"Avarna, what is going on? Read me the emotions!" It was silent, only the sounds of the alarms and the running feet of soldiers could be heard. Finally after a long silence, Avarna started to speak,"Relief. 'Finally we are free!' Confusion. 'Who let them all out?! Wait is that a Colour?' Complete Fear. 'Run! He's coming! Grey is coming!' It seems we have what they call...a prison break."

Once again the dark creatures surrounded Eien. This seemed to make Avarna amused so he continued, "...Red is there." This was a enough to cause the lights to burst, covering the whole room in darkness. The only source of light left was the red blinking alarms. With every flash, one could see the gathering of gruesome beasts around Eien. Some looked like wolves, others like lions and tigers, and even some looked like snakes.

Eien started to walk out the door, his creatures following behind him. But suddenly he stopped and without looking at Ven he spoke, "I need you to go help Altid. And don't you two argue! Avarna you need to stay in this room. Your existence isn't supposed to be learned of until tomorrow. We can't have the plan start to early." Avarna nodded and sat in the darkness, as he watched his brother walk away. He glanced at Ven and smiled,"Are you going Ven? Or do you still have another question?"





Eien finally arrived at the prisoner ward. Every soldiers' eye was on him, and each stood in attention. He walked up to one of the soldiers who looked to be about twenty-three and questioned him, "Did you report this breakout to Altid?"

The soldier was surprised and a little fearful that Eien was speaking to him, but he dared not keep him waiting,"Yes Sir! He knows of the situation."

Eien didn't say anything else and continued to walk toward the front of the prisoner ward gate. He felt better knowing it was really Altid who sounded the alarm. Also knowing Takano he probably is already working on this situation. Ven was on her way, so that wasn't on his mind. He knew that Cassius is definitely larking around the area somewhere, so he wouldn't be surprised if he heard a scream or something pretty soon. Ardaleah is on a mission away from the Headquarters so Eien is worried. And Avarna was in his room. That fact was the only thing Eien worried about. He truly hoped no one found Avarna.

Earlier Eien had requested a mic be given to him by a soldier. He was rather impatient, but after a while was finally given the mic. It was hooked up to all the speakers in the building, which he had Takano make and install for him. Once he pressed the button, every single siren was silenced, though the sounds of the people still could be heard and the flashing of the red lights still could be seen.

Without farther hesitation, Eien spoke into the mic, "This is Eien, I want every Prime, Colour, Soldier, Rebel, and whoever else that is in this mix to shut the hell up."

Everything a quiet. Not a sound could be heard throughout the whole building. Eien continued to speak, "Hey, Primes! I don't care what you do or how you do it, just know this. If you get blood all over the walls you will be cleaning it up! Having said that I want no prisoners, as it seems that is what has gotten us into this situation in the first place, so kill them all."

Letting go of the button, the sirens continued. Eien tossed the mic to the soldier beside him, and continued his walk toward the Gate. Once he stood right in front of the gate, his gruesome creations started to surround Eien, low growls escaped their mouth as fresh blood dripped from their mouths. Probably from a foolish rebel who believed he could escape while the others did all the fighting.

Pulling out Kira with his right hand, Eien readied himself. Kicking open the large gate with one push of the leg, a split second of silence filled the air, and the world was still.

Only two words came out of Eien's mouth as he watched all of the rebels that stood in front of him, "Kill them." At the command the shadow creatures ruthlessly attacked the rebels at full force, growling and baring their teeth, as Eien stood in front of the gate watching.

"There's always a light at the end of the tunnel. Unless it's night."


"How are things over there? We're starting to get some serious heat!"

A bark of laughter nearly escaped her. Yeah, if only she could get some heat. If only this stupid building wouldn't be so enclosed. if only...

If only it had no roof.

"Colours." Her voice was distorted, muffled and dark as if she were wearing a robotic imitation of Dark Vader's helmet. She spoke now to every Colour and she was sure, if Brown was here as he always was, to everyone. She'd never addressed the Colours directly before. At least, not as Red. She wouldn't do that, especially not to Shou. It was easier, she thought, for him to think the horrible girl he once loved was gone. She prayed he would hate her. "You have no reason to trust me but I hope you'll trust your instincts or at the very least, Hei."

Eve stepped around the bodies, tugging firearms and grenades from their limb bodies and slinging it over her shoulders and burying the remainder under her skin in a sizzle of crimson heat. She slipped the cap from her head for a fraction of a second, letting the soft, thick curls of evening light tumble over her shoulders. Strands of crimson tickled the nape of her ivory neck and draped across her hips before, just as quickly, they were pulled into a taught pony tail that disappeared beneath a black hood. Her equally plain black mask was unsmiling, the special material Kanaede designed turning Eve into an expressionless and genderless shadow. It neither hugged her upturned nose nor revealed her eyes, turning her into a mere suggestion of something human-shaped.

The faceless mask tilted its head upwards; a handheld machine gun was raised with it.

"We need to eradicate the roof."

Bullets pelted the ceiling in succession, so deafening and quick that it was impossible to differentiate one shot from the next. Just as soon as the pistol cartridge clattered to the floor, a new stream was fed into the machine. The ceiling cracked and shivered from the pressure.

"This is Eien, I want every Prime, Colour, Soldier, Rebel, and whoever else that is in this mix to shut the hell up."

Her grip on the machine gun faltered for a moment and a shock of pain slammed through her shoulder, ripping her back into the present. She tensed her muscles and continued firing away, ignoring the dull panic that threatened to grip her. She told herself she was slick and slippery, that his hands wouldn't get her. That he wouldn't even come close. She was strong now.

But so had her Colours, her family, so had Jin.

"Hey, Primes! I don't care what you do or how you do it, just know this. If you get blood all over the walls you will be cleaning it up! Having said that I want no prisoners, as it seems that-" his arrogant voice barked through the building's speakers. She spun the machine gun around and fired until she heard the crackling death of the speakers. Her breath came in short bursts and she told herself she was overheated and mildly exhausted from using up all her energy. She should've charged. Should've laid in a dessert all day and let course through her bones but she'd been briefly ill from her last mission. She still was, but this morning she'd learned of the rebels that'd been captured and their holdings and families slaughtered or left in chaos.

Eve ran out of pistol cartridges.

She wasn't that weak little girl anymore. She wasn't even afraid of the Grey everyone was petrified of, despite seeing him... She had no words for the things she'd seen him done. It wasn't killing. It wasn't even a bloodbath. It was a whole new level of brutality she didn't blame anyone for fearing. But Grey hadn't devoured the light in Jin's eyes. Hadn't killed the 13 Colours he'd been leading. Grey was the devil, Eien was hell. She felt a slither of fear creeping towards her, and that infuriated her. Her grip tightened and she saw and felt the familiar glow of fire.

"This is your chance," she spoke to her Colours, letting the flames gravitate towards each other to form a modest sphere of fire. It was good enough, the ceiling where she was looked like death had run it over a few hundred times already anyway. "To piss him off." She hurled the sphere at the ceiling and for a moment, she thought it wasn't enough. But then she heard the groan of the ceiling and dived for the ruined doors. A moment later, the ceiling in the giant of a room met the floor in a scream of ruin. She allowed herself a small grin and basked in the cool night breeze and the cold tingling that met her veins when she crept to bask in the moonlight. "By the end of this, it won't be the blood he'll have to worry about."

The stars blinked their curious eyes as she lifted her arms to pull them in.

Darkness devoured the light.

Her eyes widened in surprise and she stumbled for a moment before realising, of course, why was she so surprised? The grotesque figures were familiar, their quiet hatred home. They cradled her in her nightmares each night. They drained Jin from her fingertips. They were the deaths of the suns. She knew them well, but she might as well have never seen them at all for all the help horror did her.

"Eien," she breathed.

She summoned a pathetic spark to chase away the darkness but a flicker of light was as much use to her against Eien's creatures as a red flag against a bull. All it did was irritate it further. She pulled desperately at the slither of starlight between the monsters - there were many of them now, dozens, and counting - but you couldn't force a phone to charge any faster than it did. The walls were too tight, the ceiling too intact and the sky too clouded by Eien's misery for her to hasten the process. But she realised, with a start followed by an ocean of relief, that the beasts were gravitating towards her. They must've seen her as a light that needed to be devoured. Like moths to a flame, but a flame not strong enough to kill them. Not yet.

Eve closed her eyes and let a soft red glow emit from her body.

She promised a distraction, and a distraction she would be.

Jin was a breath away.

"Ven!" The black haired girl saw as Avarna ran over to her and gave her a hug. Of course, she'd return the embrace, "Evening." She simply said with her regular smile.

Since Avarna was busy pouring over how much she actually visited him at such a late time, Eien had apparently answered her question about the Colours instead, as she anticipated, "Well Altid had captured some rebels and Colours when he was on patrol in Kano. I was going over there, after I came to visit Ava. But somehow Ava found out about the prisoners, and I promised to take him with me to see them as long as he was hidden."

Just the sound of his name sickened her, "That little brat actually caught someone?" Ven asked, a disgusted expression darkening over her refined face. Nevertheless, she decided to drop the chat on Altid and moved on, "Well isn't that lovely? Then you little boys should be careful down there. We wouldn't want anything bad happening to you two, right?" She chuckled a bit, in her own odd way.

"Well, Avarna began, "I wasn't really tired. So I called brother from his meeting. Besides you don't have to worry about people seeing me anymore, cause soon, everyone is going to see me."

The sound of this though, made Ven a bit worried as a slightly concerned frown formed while she asked silently, as if directing her to herself, "What... what does that mean..." She was always anxious for the brother duo, and while she did enjoy teasing them, she was also protective of the two, not wanting any harm to come to them.

She then watched as Avarna suddenly collapsed, and out of pure worry, Ven actually took a step forward, as if she was going to also check if he was alright, just as his brother did. But after that first step, she went no further, despite her worry for what was happening. She tried not to show it on her face, so she got rid of that expression as quickly as possible before asked another question, "What is going on?"

Veneficia shrugged her shoulders, but it wasn't any innocent shrug. One, she had an idea of what was going on, and two, she didn't look like she was in the mood for joking around for the mean time. When things got serious, she knew how to act, "Wish I knew, dear..." She muttered quietly.

"Avarna, what is going on? Read me the emotions!"

"Relief. 'Finally we are free!' Confusion. 'Who let them all out?! Wait is that a Colour?' Complete Fear. 'Run! He's coming! Grey is coming!' It seems we have what they call...a prison break....Red is there."


Just like the way Ven reacted to Altid's name, she did the same at the mentioning of Red. Red was the man, as she presumed, who was trying to get rid of both her saviors, if she knew of the older brother as well. She needed no other reason to dispose of any Colours are being aware of this, 'Anyone trying to kill them will eventually be killed by me.' She scowled to herself.

Just then, lights began to flash, and she knew that her instinct was correct, especially after Avarna confirming this, "So they want to die that badly?" She asked with a bit of a crooked smile covered by her pale hand.

"I need you to go help Altid. And don't you two argue! Avarna you need to stay in this room. Your existence isn't supposed to be learned of until tomorrow. We can't have the plan start to early."

"What?" Ven looked at Eien was he was about to leave, "With Grey?" 'What kind of joke do you think this is?' She wanted to say, but kept herself from saying it. All she did was shut her mouth, and not complain, even though she desperately wanted to. A mere second later, she replaced that vile look with a kind hearted looking smile and said, "Oh don't worry. We won't argue, we'll just attempt to kill each other~ Good luck with your job, Ei." Ven said, calling him by a new nickname for the fun of it.

"Are you going Ven? Or do you still have another question?" Venefica saw Avarna give her a smile while she did the same back to him.

"Well, I'm definitely not going to just stay out of the action, that wouldn't be much fun, now would it?" Ven started for the door, but paused, waving her hand as what appeared to be a lollipop came into her grasp. She then tossed it to Avarna and said, "It may be a while, so there's something I won to give you some company while we're gone." She said and waved as she closed the door behind her.






After a while of searching for the elevator to get to the prisoners' location, she finally found one as she began to head down to their cells while hearing an announcement made by her leader, "This is Eien, I want every Prime, Colour, Soldier, Rebel, and whoever else that is in this mix to shut the hell up. Hey, Primes! I don't care what you do or how you do it, just know this. If you get blood all over the walls you will be cleaning it up! Having said that I want no prisoners, as it seems that is what has gotten us into this situation in the first place, so kill them all."

"Pupu..." Ven let out a small laugh, "It's almost like a game. How fun!" She said, clapping her hands as she finally arrived on the right floor. She began to walk, passing through the cells, some which were empty, and others which seemed to have been deprived open, in an obvious way too, "Already on the run?" She said silently and went quiet to let her ears find the source of the small sounds she could make out.

From out of the shadows, she waved her hand near her thigh and a short, yet beautifully made dagger was being gripped in her left hand, and so she did the same in her right before she was wielding two weapons, "Lets see who I can find first." She said, and after a little more time of listening, she heard a voice in the distance and ran for it.

More running, sprinting, she arrive there in time to find a whole group of people busting out the prisoners. The prisoners had their own outfits, so she knew that those without one would be apart of the Colours, "Just my luck." She grinned. None of the Colours were looking her way, so she had no power over them, for now, but one guard was, and he was further back than the whole group. Any lamb singled out from its herd was the wolf's prey, 'That's the way I work.'

The gaze of the man was on Ven, and she stared right back. From there, she activated her power, which began to break one bone in his body, and once that snapped, he let out a great scream, and right after that, another, before both his legs were broken and he couldn't run or walk, but only lay there in pain, "Fun, isn't it?" She asked, walking up to the man with the sharp weapon in her hand, "I'll end it quickly for you dear." Veneficia smile as she quickly cut his neck.

She then looked around some more, seeing how she lost track of the Colours, and eventually found Altid, who she gave a grunt at seeing, but nevertheless said with a dark expression, "You're late, brat. Hurry up and get to work." She growled, "If you could get them the first time, prove it to me that you're actually a man and get them now. I've already got one kill, and I'm pretty sure I'm far ahead of you." She snickered.

Kacey looked up in shock when Kanade broke into her cell, pulling her to her feet, but quickly shook it off and grinned. "Nice timing, Kana -- sorry, Green. And thanks for the motivation, though it's not like I needed it. Let's get outta here. But first..." Free from the power-confining prison, her eyes glowed bright blue. Bits of rubble from the iron bars and the fighting around them lifted into the air, forming a tornado-like shield around them, growing faster every second. It moved with the two girls as they ran towards the other cells, the debris battering the bars until they were bent enough for the captives to slip through. "Now we can go," Kacey muttered, sending a chunk of rock smashing into the head of a soldier close by.

Altid had made his way to the prisoner ward in record time, it was chaos, most of the rooms the rebels were kept in have been emptied and they were ether freeing other or fleeing down the corridor that lead to the main gate. In the midst of all that Altid saw a male rebel running for it, almost making it out of the hallway. He waited for a bit, letting the other pass through the ruined doorway where a metal gate used to stand, he waited for the rebel to feel the freedom, to think he had escaped and then shot him in the leg. He approached the man that was now crawling to his freedom and was about to call a soldier to come and cuff him but a voice, Eien’s voice roamed through the building.

"This is Eien, I want every Prime, Colour, Soldier, Rebel, and whoever else that is in this mix to shut the hell up. Hey, Primes! I don't care what you do or how you do it, just know this. If you get blood all over the walls you will be cleaning it up! Having said that I want no prisoners, as it seems that is what has gotten us into this situation in the first place, so kill them all."

Altid smiled at Eien's words, he lived for moment's like this, it was going to be a gore galore. He turned and started going back inside, the rebels that made it outside will be handled with, he had to go check if that Colour they captured has managed to get herself free.

The wounded man watched as Altid disappeared inside, he let out a breath he was holding and thought how lucky he was, to be spared when the order was kill them all. His happiness didn't last long as he heard Altid laugh and a skeleton like figure appeared next to him. The creature shrieked and attacked the man clawing at his entire body, ripping through it with ease, killing him in a matter of moments.

Sicarius, as the creature was called when he was still alive, appeared by Altid's side soon after. Sicarius was Altid's favourite Soul to summon, they shared love for killing. His skin had long rotted leaving him just a mass of tissue and bones and a cloud of dark green mist surrounded him making his hallow features even creepier. "Go take care of the rest." The creature just nodded at Altid’s words and went in the direction most screams were coming from.

"Fucking, hell." He cursed upon seeing that the cell Blue was supposed to be held in was empty. It was a top security cell, nobody should be able to break out of there. He kicked the door that was now laying on the ground. His yaw twicked and his fists as five more skeletons appeared around him. "Find her and rip her throat out." Altid hissed. While he ran in the direction of the main room, more Souls appeared beside him.

The sight that welcomed him was a one of nightmares. It wasn't the numerous dead bodies, it wasn't the fact that an entire wall and part of the ceiling were now just dust and rumble, it was Black. "You're late, brat. Hurry up and get to work. If you could get them the first time, prove it to me that you're actually a man and get them now. I've already got one kill, and I'm pretty sure I'm far ahead of you." Was the first thing he heard. Not late, I had other things to do. His voice was full of annoyance. Also... when he spoke this time his voice might have gotten an octave higher. Don't flatter yourself, as if you could ever be better than me.

Out of the corner of his eye he spotted Blue, finally he’s gonna be able to kill the bitch. But the girl wasn't alone, another Colour was with her, he smirked as he recognized that the other was Kanade. It’s a shame that we always meet at such inconvenient circumstances. Altid yelled out to her. The grin on his face lasted only a moment. It’s also a shame that this will be the last time we meet. As he finished the sentence a group of the undead surged towards the girls.

Takano Hiroki


Takano smirked at Eiens order. His attack obviously didn't do much if anything at all. It was time to get in the action. Takano typed in his computer to make sure no colour could stride in and hack his computer. Putting on his jacket he strode out the room. It was quieter than before but it was still a bit loud. He could hear Black and Grey arguing but soon Grey's attention was turned to two girls he recognized as.... blue and green. Walking farther into the room there was Orange and Red.

A few rebels decided to try their luck on him. "You've got guts to approach a Prime." Takano smirked. "We've heard about you, Brown. You make people do things from your computer." one of them said.

Raise your left arm. The man's eyes opened wide as his arm moved. Move the gun to your head. After saying All hail Eien shoot the gun. Takano smirked as the man shook in absolute terror as the arm he no longer had controll over raised to his temple. He said the words just as he shot himself. The other two ran, too late however. Kill Red. The men continued running, it was obvious they were completely loyal so the action wouldn't go. Kill each other. The two men stopped, pulled out their guns and shot each other. Wincing Takano grabbed his head.

Kanade Hoshizora


She stood firm though Grey's voice calling out to her made her tremble inside. "Such a shame. It will in fact be the last time we meet. But don't be afraid. You will die in combat, a honorable death." Kanade pressed her hands together and muttered the word summon, a Ak-47 fell out along with ammo as she opened her hands. "Kacey, cover me for a second." Kanade pulled up her eyepatch and stared at Grey, to her dismay she didn't see the past so either the bastard wasn't going to die or he'd take more than a hour to kill. Soon her terror had reason, she saw herself wounded.

"I see you dead at my feet Grey." She hoped that he would fall for it. But knowing him, he wouldn't. But if he hesitated for a moment that is a advantage for her. She continued receiving future, hoping something good would appear.

Hei let out a grunt as she had been frozen into her spot, hidden behind a wall as she was starting to lose sight of the rebels that were alive. The only thing she could grunt out in response to Shou was simple.

"Let's- Nngh! Let's see! The roof just practically caved in, the rebels are dying, our fellow teammates are showing up a bit late and everyone's now in full kill mode. This is why I always tell everyone to be careful!" Hei was cut off with another painful jolt as a bullet buried itself into her leg, no doubt knocking her out of Brown's hack. "Ugh! I n-need you too see if there are any survivors in hiding here. I need to at least save one or two of them, or this... It would be in vain." Hei growled in pain as she spun around, kicking the guard who had tried to shoot her in the throat, only to snap it once she knelt down.

"Shit... Red! Goddamn it, all of this... I need..." Hei whispered to herself, most likely muffled after need into the mic. At least she had left her father's jacket back in her room, as well as her jewelry. Rule number one of fighting, never leave something you value on your person. "Where the hell is Yellow?!" Now she was panicking. Sure Hei would of been a good solider, but compared to everyone else and their powers, there was no way she would be of much help without exposing her wings.

'No time, I need to help Eve. Time to either blow up the building or see if I can distract E- That's it! Even if I can't blow up the building, I can do serious damage, just like how she's doing!' Hei smiled in relief, tucking away her pistol as she waved a rebel who was also hidden in the hallway, them both slipping away from the gunshots and screams. Now she was whispering, only to preserve the surprise attack.

"Scratch that Shou... I have a new idea in mind. We either blow this place sky high, or find Eien's office and wreck that." Hei suggested, "That's where you come in, and I assume a brilliant young man like you knows exactly what to do." Screw Grey, screw it all. Evening was a resourceful young women, a brave one. She could handle herself against Eien. She was stronger now. And if Hei was correct, Kacey and Kanade had each other against Grey as well, him and whoever was with him anyway. "We need to hurry! Red may not last long at this rate, the roof is still too intact!" Hei panted, wincing as she gripped her bleeding leg and then her shoulder.

It was to loud. The sirens blasting as he stared up at his ceiling. Certainly he wouldn't be yelled at for showing up... Late, to the party. It wasn't as if he was lazy, it was just the fact he wasn't in the mood for a bunch of loud screaming and chaos. At least, until he heard Eien over the loud speaker, following explosions as he sighed, dragging his body out of bed as he began to grab his swords, two on each on of his hips. Without even bothering to remove his eye patch to put in a troublesome glass eye, he was out the door and heading down the hall. No doubt this was because of the rebels and Colors they had captured earlier. And by they, he meant Altid.

"Such a troublesome predicament. To find my little Miss Orange, or to kill the others... I'll do both I suppose." Cassius chuckled to himself before his smirk was wiped off his face. Guard or rebel were now at his "mercy". Surely no one would notice if a few more guards were killed, right? Now that gave him just a shiver of delight as soon, his blade had cut down ally and enemy alike. Now, to just ask what the hell was going on to one of his fellow Primes.

Kacey was petrified with terror. "Z-z-zzz....ZOMBIES!!!" Backing slowly away from the undead minions Gray had sent after them, she was only brought back to the present by Kanade saying her name: "Kacey, cover me for a second." "I-I'll work on that, okay?" stammered Kacey, planting her feet. Crap, who would've thought I'd have to fight zombies, of all things?! she thought. The salvage spinning around her began to drift from its glowing blue axis as Kacey's heartbeat increased with fear, flying in all directions, except, unfortunately, at the zombies. Managing to regain a little control, she starting telekinetically flinging bits of iron at the heads of Gray's living corpses, knocking a few of some and only achieving facial piercings for others. "K..KANADE!!" Kacey screamed, falling backwards against a wall, several zombies still advancing.

All I Want

"You brought out the best of me,
A part of me I'd never seen.
You took my soul wiped it clean,
Our love was made for movie screens."


Come on, come on, come on.

Eve stared desperately at the cosmic energy above her, so tangible yet so stupidly out of reach. She could feel, see, the coolness of night curling its eerie fingers under her skin but there was so little of it and not enough time. She wished then, not for the first time, that she could manipulate time. There would be so much she would change but she didn’t have that, so all she could do was do better and protect those she loved.

She could feel the darkness tugging at the weave of her body and soul, loosening it, but she hardly noticed the pain. She was gripped by the fear that once again, she would fail her Colours. Once again, she would be the only one left alive. The lives being lost were like buildings falling on her head. She couldn’t see the deaths – darkness and the hope of moonlight, those were the only two things she saw – but she could feel them. Hear their screams. The bang thump crack of gunshots tossing lives aside.

"Z-z-zzz....ZOMBIES!!!"

The scream tore Eve’s mind away from Eien’s suffocating darkness as her head whipped around, searching for the voice she knew.

"K..KANADE!!"

Kacey.

Panic slithered its way up her throat but it was quickly shoved aside by the protective instinct that made her Red. It was the one thing she’d managed to salvage from Jin. The strength of his she held onto like armor, and what followed it was a rage that was all her own: a red, hot fury that could not be buried.

She dived and pushed into the darkness that surrounded her like a wall and the figures flinched back momentarily, dazed. She was a beacon of red light that zigzagged through the void. The darkness was weary but soon, they crept in, brushing the corners of her mind and sinking in.




“What constellation is that?” Her eyes followed the arch of his arm to the point of his finger. If Eve had it her way, she wouldn’t be looking at the stars but at the sharp lines and gentle slopes of his profile. She loved the sky, but she loved him more.

“Sculptor,” she replied.

“Sculptor,” he repeated with a melodic chuckle at the end. “You know Sculptor’s story?” he asked, the fingers of the hand that rested on the damp grass entwining with hers. She smiled. This was a game of theirs, she would identify the constellations and he would write their stories.

“No. What is it?” she said.

“Once upon a time,” Jin began.

“Wow, that’s creative,” she interrupted before a finger was placed over her lips and a pair of soft grey eyes hovering above her. Her thoughts faded into oblivion. She watched his Adam’s apple bob inches from her lips as he tilted his head and pressed a gentle kiss to her forehead before rolling onto his back.

“Once upon a time,” he continued. “There was an artist who was very poor. Everyday he sat by the window of his studio and painted the changing world outside, and every evening he saw the exact same girl sit on the exact same bench. She would stay there long after the sun was down and he would try to wait to see when she left but for some reason, he could never stay up that late, and every morning, when he woke up, she would be gone.

“One evening he decided to approach her. It required a lot of courage because she seemed a lot tsundere,” he said was a cheeky flash of his teeth. Eve rolled her eyes at the reference to her. She wasn’t tsundere, as she’d told him countless times before but Jin believed what he wanted to. “Anyway, he asked her why she sat there every night. She said, ‘I was waiting.’”

He paused.

“’For what?’ the artist asked.”

He didn’t continue.

“And…? What was she waiting for?” she asked, finally. He turned on his side and then braced himself over her, his elbows on either side of her head. He stared deeply into her eyes in the corny way he did, but it worked.

“For you,” he whispered, capturing her lips with his own. Her heart fluttered in her chest. “She said, ‘I was waiting for you.’”

“That’s it?” she asked, incredulous.

“That’s it.”

“That’s so cheesy.”

“I do like pizza with extra cheese,” he said with a solemn nod. She punched him lighting in the chest and he feigned excruciating pain.

“Come on, where’s the rest of the story? How does this relate to Sculptor?” she asked, raising a brow.

“Isn’t it obvious? He’s an artist,” Jin said defiantly.

“Who sculpts,” she finished for him. He nodded. “That’s it?”

“No,” he replied.

“No?”

“No.”

“Well?”

“They fell in love,” he said with a serious nod.

“Yeah, I got that.”

“Then,” he began. “He carved her an ivory pendant shaped like a star within the moon to represent how he would always protect her, hold her, and love her. Always. Not till death did them part, but till the end of the world and beyond.”

“That’s grim,” she said quietly as he opened his closed fist to reveal a thin silver chain, and hanging from it, an ivory pendant of the star in the moon.

“He told her, ‘we don’t have much time left, but Eve, I love you. I love you.’” He held her so tightly she thought her bones might break or maybe that was her heart. “He said, ‘but I’ll watch you. I’ll be one of your constellations. The brightest so you can see me, and even when you can’t, I’m still there. I promise,’” his voice cracked.

“This isn’t real, is it?” she asked quietly, the fingers she hadn’t known had been clenched around his shirt loosening with effort.

“No,” he said after a pause.

“You’re dead,” she breathed, the words barely a whisper. “He killed you.”

“You have to go now, Eve. They still need you.” Jin pulled back reluctantly, holding her shoulder and cupping her cheek in his warm, foolishly real hand.

“I love you,” she said, feeling the tears trickle and sink into his skin that was not there.

“I know, because I will always love you."




The darkness was gone.

She’d sunk to the ground, her body nearly as limp as her heart. Tears pooled at the edge of her mask and she let out a distorted half laugh, half cry, full scream. Eve got to her feet, and then she ran.

“You’re safe, Blue,” she said after firing a glowing, silver arrow into the undead nearest to her. The mask warped her voice, making it genderless, an eerie combination of male and female, emotionless and filled with unveiled cries.

A blazing arrow of moonlight bled into existence from the palm of her hand and she pulled it against the incandescent bow she clutched, aiming the blinding point at Grey’s head.

“Huh, you’re even prettier than the queen now. Eien has a taste for flower boys, I see.”

Eve released the arrow and before anyone had time to blink, she whizzed around and fired another at Veneficia. Neither would kill them, she was sure, because they weren’t meant to. They would shatter and a supernova would blind and stun them momentarily. Just long enough for Kanaede, Kacey and the rebels to get out. Hopefully.

Besides, she couldn’t kill them. They were just deluded followers. It was Eien whom she wanted.

Still shivering, Kacey mumbled a "Thanks." The floating concrete and metal fell to the ground around her, causing dust to rise into the air. She looked up at Kanade, slowly calming down. "Green, I'm going to see if I can find my knives. I'll be back to help as soon as I do." She got to her feet, habitually brushing herself off before sprinting off into the depths of the confine to find where her weapons were being kept.

With shut eyes as she leaned against a wall, reloading the gun as well as temporarily treating her wounds as she listened to every word Shou said. "I'll find Eien's office and I'll direct you there. I'm going to head in soon too, but Mayu will be the one to find his hiding spot. I'll probably see you in a minute or two. Find me."

"Right okay." Hei nodded, though she knew the man wouldn't see it. Ripping part of a dead guard's shirt, as disgusting as it was to her, Hei wrapped it tightly around her leg where it ached the most. Next, Hei yanked off her own tee-shirt, happy about wearing a tank top underneath it for once as she used her shirt to wrap her wound on her shoulder.

"Keep the others alive and started heading off that floor. Actually, start heading up the building. I don't think Eien's office would be on the lowest floor."

Limping rapidly to wherever the hell the stairs were in this place, Hei spun around as she hurried her name being called out by that lovely, familiar voice. "Shou!" Hei didn't notice any glances towards her wounds, in fact, she was more content with the fact she wasn't alone at this point.

"Damn it... They're already done this much damage... We've got to hurry up and get out of here. Where are the others?"

"I'm assuming Red is with Kanade and Kacey and facing off against Grey and Black last time I cheeked. As for Elsyia, I have no bloody idea." Hei quickly replied as she didn't even flinch as Shou shot the guard without a second thought.

"You know what, lets get you out of here first. There's no way you're going to be able to get back on your own. Come on, and keep up the pace!" Her eyes meeting his, Hei knew she was in no place to argue, but she couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"If you didn't notice, keeping up the pace is going to be a little hard Shou!" Hei nearly whined as she shook her head. Her limp now fully bothering her, she chose to ignore it as she stumbled after Shou. "Hey, be careful! Your tripping all over the place Shou!" Hei kept her voice to a certain volume to prevent anyone else from hearing them.

"Not late, I had other things to do." Veneficia heard Altid say, a hint of annoyance seeming to linger in her voice which made her smile with contentment at his anger with her. Of course, she hated Grey as well, but she didn't always display her hatred as openly as he did, just to piss him off even further.

"Is that so? You're slow then." Ven said, hearing footsteps behind her and finding another survivor. She turned around, looking at them in their frightened eyes for a moment, but before she could do anything horrible to them, he turned away, the eyesight between the two breaking.

Veneficia scowled at not using her ability quick enough to break one of his knees, at least, so that he wouldn't run away, "Damn it..." She murmured with frustration at this, and with the dagger in her left hand, tossed it swiftly as it hit the man in the back, pinning him to the ground, where he tried to get up before she skipped over and pulled it out, hiding it back into her shadows before leaving him there, kicking him once with her red heels and saying, "Good way of trying to escape, dumb ass."

"Also...Don't flatter yourself, as if you could ever be better than me."

At the sound of this, Ven growled, almost like an animal getting ready to attack its prey. But then she noticed something; Altid's voice squeaked a bit. Her mood suddenly lifted at the thought of this, and while she'd usually be quiet and just say something about it later to annoy him even more, she couldn't help it, "Says the lovely little girl. Please be sure to hold your puberty voice until the battle is over, Altid." She smirked.

But then, Ven heard Altid say something to someone that was close to them, but quite far away also. She looked into the same direction and saw two Colours. The sight of them wasn't very surprising, but rather something Veneficia herself was looking forward to. She couldn't' help but give off a small mischievous smile.

"It’s a shame that we always meet at such inconvenient circumstances. It’s also a shame that this will be the last time we meet."

"Such a shame. It will in fact be the last time we meet. But don't be afraid. You will die in combat, a honorable death. I see you dead at my feet Grey."

"Aw... how sweet~" Veneficia said, glancing at the two, "I never knew that lover quarrels happened during a battle. How interesting!" She laughed a regular laugh, but it was obvious there was a dark and mysterious feel to her, "Well, while the two of you are doing that, should I take my own prey?" She asked, taking a small glance at Kacey, or in other words, blue.

Veneficia made eye contact with Blue, Kacey, and began to activate her ability. She aimed on breaking her leg first, as she always did with all her prey. It made sure they wouldn't be able to run, or at least, that they wouldn't be able to run too fast, but something had interrupted her that made her freeze for a moment, “You’re safe, Blue. Huh, you’re even prettier than the queen now. Eien has a taste for flower boys, I see.”

'Who the hell is that-' Ven began to think before a snap of bright light flashed in the dark prison floor they were on. Black was blinded for a spare moment. She remembered seeing something like an arrow fired at Altid's forehead while one was also fired back at her. Something made Ven tense up at that moment, and she was unable to move.

Veneficia's eyes were blinded for a bit of a long time. She always was able to adjust to the darkness since she had literally lived in it for a quarter, or even half of her whole life. Anything bright, on the other hand, was impossible for Ven to get used to. She then heard running and knew it was the footsteps of her opponents. Now this made her angry and even more frustrated.

She knew their goal, and who they were trying to get to. No one but her and his brother knew that Avarna existed, so there was the final, one and only leader; Eien, "They wouldn't dare to touch him..." She said, allowing her eyes to readjust to the lighting as she got up from the ground, leaning on the wall to the left, "If you do," Ven continued to talk, regardless if the Colours were really there or not, "I'll rip you to pieces." She said seriously, and with the tone she said that in, there was no way she joking.

Ven was always taken as a very calm woman, but when someone dared to try and take away one of her family members, especially if that person were to be one of her saviors, she'd go all out as a legit killer. This was that time. Anyone trying to convince her to take any of the Colours or prisoners alive would be absurd, "I'll kill you all." She said darkly as her eyes finally adjusted as she then broke out into a sprint, or perhaps even a sprint to catch up to the people who had originally tried to get rid of Eien.

Kanade Hoshizora


"Lovers Quarrel." Kanade's eyebrow twitched in agitation at the thought. As of she could ever love anyone like that! Kanade looked over at Kacey, she was fine thanks to Orange. Her vision had been cut short at the interruption unfortunately and she wasn't getting another chance anytime soon so she slid her eye patch back on.

Kanade smirked, "I hope your ready for this." A grin spread across her face as she already began to succumb the insanity, "Grey!" .

Kanade hesitated for a moment, using the sanity that remained. Grey wasn't really a up close fighter as far as she knew but then again he could if he wanted to. Murmuring 'summon', putting her hands together then pulling them apart she received a smoke bomb. She threw it near Grey's feet and jumped in the air well above the smoke from years of training.

She had memorized Grey's position and hoped she'd pull this off. She was headed feet first to where she thought Grey was to knock him down. In her haste she hadn't made sure the smoke didn't obstruct anyone else's view but the smoke bomb wasn't very large honestly and if it did it would go away soon enough with everyone's movements creating wind.

Eien was still standing in front of the gate. He didn't seemed rushed by the turn of events, but rather...curious. At this moment he wouldn't let his thoughts be interrupted by the yelling of the rebels. Few had the courage to stand even close to his presence, but still not one dared to go past him or even stand beside him. Though it wasn't like Eien was going to move, nor did he seem to be paying any attention to their irritating ranting.

All his attention was drawn to one...man? Eien wasn't sure if it was even a he, but that didn't concern him in the least. What truly bothered him was the fact that this man was able to draw almost half of his creations toward him, without Eien commanding them.

Eien knew his creations responded to one thing more than anything, and that was light. They were designed to stuff out the light wherever or whoever it is. But never has Eien seen someone be attacked by so many of his beast...and live.

This frustrated Eien and he demanded to know who that person was. As he was about to enter the mist of the battle. He was stopped by a single rebels, brave enough to stand in his way. Eien stared into his eyes, which were filled with hatred and anger. He knew what he wanted. The man wished to kill him, do unto him as he did to him. His voice was trembling with anger and crude intentions toward Eien,"Y-You...Bastard! Everything is because of you!"

Eien didn't say a word, as he listened to the endless sobs of the man. Eien's eyes were unwavering, unlike the mans, whose eyes seemed to quiver more and more as he realized that Eien truly didn't care. The man pointed a gun at Eien. His hands were unsteady and unfocused. Small tears formed in the eyes of this man,"Do you know what you did?!"

Eien didn't stay silent this time and answered the man,"No." Eien's voice held no concern. It was cold and authoritative. Which made the man more infuriated. Even at gunpoint, Eien still held his prideful manner and bold way of speaking. Though it was only one simple word, it conveyed multiple of meanings. One of them being that Eien doesn't care about what he did or does to anyone.

The man's hands started to quiver even more. Fresh tears dripped from his eyes,"YOU KILLED THEM! MY WIFE! MY CHILDREN! YOU KILLED THEM ALL, WITHOUT A SINGLE SINCE OF REMORSE!" The man stepped closer aiming the gun straight at Eien.

Eien looked into the man's eyes, and was disgusted by the site. His eyes held nothing, but pure determination to kill him. He didn't even look like he was planning on escaping. Eien knew that this man had been planning this. This poor man was ready to die, if it meant being able to get revenge on him.

Eien closed his eyes for a split second. He blocked out all sound around him, and started to recall his memory. Thousands upon thousands of faces flashed through his head. Faces of the ones he killed, down to the very first one. At once he stopped at three faces.

Bloody. Twisted. Smiling.

Eien opened his eyes slowly. Staring at the man who still had a risen gun, Eien smile boldly, "They were a beautiful family."

The man's whole body froze. Lowering the gun an inch downward he stared at Eien with trembling eyes,"...What?"

Eien smiled cruelly at the man,"So trusting and loyal."

The man shook his head,"Y-You."

"It was such a waste of time to kill them. But I couldn't leave them looking so miserable. Especially when they were so deep in despair, when I told them you were dead."

"Lies."

"Your wife was the saddest. Grieving so horribly for you. Saying she no longer wished to live in a world without you."

"Shut up."

"So of course I had to fulfill her wish."

"Stop talking!"

"They didn't even scream. They all died smiling."

"Monster."

A twisted smile formed on Eien's face as he looked at the man, "You call me a Monster. But in reality you are just frustrated in your own incapability to protect the ones you cherished. Am I right"

The man's eyes grew wider as he listened to the words of Eien. They sank in like water. Leaving a horrible feeling inside of him. It was deep and frustrating. The man began to crumble under the weight.

Eien looked down upon the man with scornful eyes. Judgement rang through his voice as he kept speaking, "Do not blame me for their deaths, but instead blame yourself for being unable to protect them!"

"MONSTER!" In that instant the man rose the gun and fired at Eien in full rage.

Swiftly raising Kira Eien slashed at the bullets one by one, not even once did they hit him. He was about to cut down the last bullet, when he was blinded by a bright light. He squinted his eyes, and in that second the bullet pierced through his left arm. The man drooped the gun, as he looked at Eien with complete horror. He couldn't believe he hit him. He could only stare as Eien stood there bleeding.

Altid crossed his hands behind his back and smiled. His undead minions were taking care of everything, they had Kacey and Kanade cornered and had killed at least five or six rebels, he wouldn't even have to lift a fing... Looks like he thought too soon because in the blink of an eye arrows that seemed to be made of light destroyed all the creatures around Blue. And soon enough one of the arrows was pointed at him by a faceless, genderless figure that could only be Red.

"For fuck's sake." He mentally cursed because the hit from the arrow has not only blinded him but made him unable to move and therefore unable to open his mouth to yell out all the curses running through his brain. The fact that a mere Colour could mobilize him so quickly made Altid feel humiliated and no one,no one makes Altid Immitis feel humiliated and get's away with it.

When he finally regained his senses he was met by a thick cloud of smoke that left him disoriented once more. Faintly he heard Kanade say "I hope your ready for this." and as it was said in quite a hateful manner he assumed she was going to charge at him. Of course Grey wouldn't be Gray if he didn't master the art of escaping from a tricky situation. He spun around to where Green's voice was coming from only seeing the contours of her body. "You'll have to try a little harder than that to get me." Kanade was now close enough to properly see him so he smirked and even took the time to wink at the girl before a wall made entirely of the undead appeared between them. Just a moment before the barrier appeared he quickly drew out his gun and shot. As Altid was in a hurry when he dressed he put on the gun belt backwards so now he had to draw the gun with his left hand, seeing as he was right handed the aim in his left hand was quite bad. If he miraculously managed to shoot Kanade the wound would have been just a measly scrape on the shoulder but he didn't have time to worry about that. With the wall still there he ran in the opposite direction.

In these past moments Black managed to disappear into oblivion and he hadn't seen Takano or Cassius in the first place. Where were those two idiots? As much as Altid hated to admit it he couldn't take on three Colours without any backup. As he ran towards a conveniently placed button that alerted all of Seele's army that the Colours have infiltrated the complex he saw the most unlikely sight ever. It was Eien just standing there bleeding as a rebel, who managed to get a weapon from a dead soldier, had him at gunpoint. He wasn't sure it was illusion or reality that he was seeing.

He wrote in the code and pressed the button, another,hopefully better prepared, troop should arrive in a few minutes. With some uncertainty in his movements he took the gun into his right hand. The man in front of Eien dropped his gun and fell to the floor. He couldn't see clearly but it seemed the man he had shot in the abdomen was still alive, laying at Eien's feet.

Kanade Hoshizora


Kanade was approaching closer and closer but was caught off guard, "You'll have to try a little harder than that to get to me.", Grey gave her a smirk accompanied with a wink. He darted off as Kanade hit the ground then jumped back, seeing a army of non-human things made a defensive wall covering Grey. Kanade smirked, the insanity struggling to consume her.

"You bastard you won't get away so easily!" Kanade was faced with these non-human things as she yelled out to grey. Soon a sharp pain distracted her in her leg and brought her back to rational thought. He had the nerve to wink at me! Shit I think I'm bleeding too! Kanade felt her leg, it wasn't anything major but even so it pissed her off. That cocky bastard.

"Blue, a little help." Kanade said, looking for the girl. But realizing she might be on her own she sprung into action, a twisted smile creeping on her face.



"Look it's that girl!" A boy pointed at her. Kanade was sitting in a small alley, relaxing her back on one wall and her feet up on the other. "Get lost kid.", Kanade took a drag on a cigarette and boredly looked at the two small boys. "Why? aren't you lonely?" The boy stepped forward. Kanade sighed, closing her eyes then opened them back up, staring at the boy, receiving his future.

"You will be dragged away by your mom who will later warn you about talking to strangers. She'll tell you about how I'm a freak of nature, a genetic mistake.... a monster. For the time you'll brag to your friends about how you met me and survived. After you got your small fame you'll forget about me." Kanade spoke, the boy stepping back in fear.

"Sora, Claude get away from her!" Their mom came and had to drag the two away due to the boy staring back at her. Kanade gave a small laugh, running a hand through her boy-short grey hair. A grey and black cat jumped on her lap and Kanade smiled softly then petted the cat. "But I'll always have you won't I? Yukari." Kanade said softly.


Kanade wielded the Ak-47 in one hand and the Submarine gun in the other. She shot at the creatures the best she knew how. Throwing one gun in the air she kneed one of them knocking it down then raised her hand to catch the gun. Had these guns been any other weapon she couldn't of performed this feat.

There were still more and more. She knocked one in the head with a gun and shot it with the other. There were three down but more to go, and she wasn't planning on letting Grey get away so easily. Blue needed to hurry. At this rate she wouldn't be in any condition to fight, she was certainly a bit scratched up. "Damn you Grey" . Kanade took down two more and was huffing at the gymnastics she was being required to perform. Dodging under one grotesque claw kicking another and jumping in the air, landing on another. She was breathing hard at this point. Blue...

Kacey saw a woman in black out of the corner of her eye as she ran. She began to feel a tingling in her right leg, but a bright light flashed in the same general area and it went away. Good. No worries yet, but I should probably keep an eye out for more Primes, she thought. Running from hallway to hallway, Kacey searched in vain for...what was she looking for? Her knives could be anywhere, a warehouse, with Brown, or... "Crud. Well, that was moronic," she muttered, skidding to a halt and turning to head in the direction she had come as she realized that they had probably been on one of the soldiers guarding her cell. Why didn't I think of this before? Moron, moron, moron. She sent a telepathic message to Kanade: I screwed up. I'll be back in a minute to see what I can do. If you can find my knives, that would speed things up. Thanks.
