Introduction
Why don't we start at the beginning? Or should I say the beginning of the end?
"Everlost. That's where some of us unlucky souls end up. Thrown into a world between where we were supposed to be going, and where we came from. No one knows quite why we ended up in Everlost, only that we're here, and there's no way to get out. We're dead, that much is certain, but, other than that, there's not much else. Once you're in Everlost, everything just keeps getting worse. The first thing is that you learn that you're dead, and no matter how much you scream and yell at the faded people who roam the streets and do their work, they won't hear you. Then, you start losing your memories. If you don't keep it rolling around in your head, you'll forget your own name, and, unless you keep a picture of yourself handy, you'll forget what you look like as well. And if you forget what you look like, you'll end up changing, I've seen it happen before. Another thing is that you can't stay still, you have to keep moving, sucks, huh? I'll explain that later however, for now, I need to explain to you our little situation..."
Welcome to Everlost.
It's not as bad as Hell, but it's pretty darn close. You've died, it could have been recently, or you could have died 1000 years ago, it doesn't really matter. You haven't aged, and the only way you've changed is if you haven't been reminding yourself what you're supposed to look like.
Anyway, that's not what you're supposed to know. First off, if you aren't already there, you should make your way to the Twin Towers. It's one of the many buildings that have crossed into Everlost. If you look hard enough, there should be a Finder close by who would love to lead you there. Once you get there, you'll be taken good care of, and you'll be safe there.
You have to be very careful, Everlost is a very dangerous place. You need to make your way to the towers without haste, the Beloved and his agents lurk, looking for new Afterlights to wander into his trap. He's not merciful with those he finds. If you see a black horse drawn carriage with no driver, get as far away as possible.
Originally in Everlost, no one could feel pain, but recently, more and more people Greensouls have been found to be able to feel pain, but it's not normal pain. They have a soulmate somewhere in Everlost who is connected to them. They are called Fighters, A Fighter has the ability to kill Afterlights, but, if your going to kill an Afterlight, your going to have to be able to take a hit (since most Afterlights don't feel pain), originally, the Fighter feels the pain, but, if they have a lover from life who is also in Everlost, they can transfer the pain to them, those people are called Sacrafices.
The Beloved is a Fighter, and him and his Sacrafice are the oldest known Afterlight Pairs with this ability. Too bad for The Beloved, his Sacrafice learned a way to send his pain right back to him. She's in hiding, posing as a normal Afterlight, other than the fact that she's been teaching other Afterlights in the way of Haunting.
She's just forgotten about the love she once had for The Beloved, but he hasn't forgotten about her. He can't be the ruler of Everlost when he feels pain if he fights too much.
His Sacrafice is raising an army against him.
And he is raising an army to protect himself so he can get to her.
What part will you play?
"Wait, wait, wait, don't go to the Twin Towers! Mary Hightower, or the Sky Witch will hold you hostage there, you'll get stuck in a rut, and be doing the same thing for the rest of eternity. Come to my apartment building, I'll keep you safe, teach you how to haunt, help you find your hidden potential, and turn you into an army against the Beloved. Are you in?"

About Everlost
>Everlost is the place between life and death that all lost children end up after getting lost in their journey to the afterlife.
>These lost children, or Afterlights as they are called, are unseen by the real "living" world.
>The afterlights cannot interact with the real world
>Afterlights sink to the Earth's core if they stay still. An exception is when somebody has died in that spot.
>They can interact with certain objects that are loved so much by their owners that when the object breaks, it crosses over to Everlost, unbroken, and is given a place there for eternity. The same is for certain places that were destroyed (the twin towers are used as an example) that were loved and cherished by many people and will never be forgotten.
>There are no adults in Everlost presumably because they know whether they are going afterlife.
>Greensouls are new Afterlights. They are particularly vulnerable because they don't know what's going on, and they are easily manipulated.
>Finders spend their time looking for objects like food, televisions, etc. that cross into Everlost.
>Because of the growing amounts of Fighters and Sacrifices, there are many fights that erupt in Everlost for superiority.
>Fighters and Sacrifices are connected by a mental string and can speak through each others minds.
>Sacrifices feel pain, but aren't harmed. The fighters protect the Sacrifices because of their love and also because if the Sacrifice is killed by another Fighter, their Fighter feels pain, again.
>'The Sacrifice' lives in an apartment building in New York that was torn down many years ago. She teaches Afterlights how to Haunt and also gives a home to them. She's been raising an army out of her students.
(I'll add more as it comes to me)
>Afterlights loose their memory if they don't keep reminding themselves of stuff such as their name and what they look like. Most Afterlights keep a picture of themself with them at all times.
Characters
Played by MirrorMirror1498~The Sacrifice~Played by MirrorMirror1498
She is the Afterlight who is the Sacrifice to The Beloved. She doesn't remember loving him, and only knows that she wants to raise an army against him. She doesn't really care about the well being of Everlost, and she doesn't really have a side, but she's making the army, anyway, for her friends, they are all she cares about. The reason why she's been able to block him and his pain from her is because she's also a Haunter. Her abilities allow her to block herself off from him.
Played by Lovely ♠~The Beloved~Played by Lovely ♠
The self-proclaimed "King of Everlost". He's brutal and evil, killing anyone he happens upon and trying to take over Everlost. The only thing holding him back is his love for 'The Sacrifice' and the pain he has when he fights. He wants to reunite with her because of his love for her and also to force her to take her role as his Sacrifice back. He's planning on ruling Everlost with her by his side. Just the mention of his name strikes fear into the core of every Afterlight in Everlost.

Beloved
Beloved cut her a look over his shoulder listening to her speak. He sighed hearing she still had the same point of view as before. After everything he said nothing changed between them. Why wasn't she getting the point here? Well it's nice to see she hasn't changed too much. It seemed the only thing that has changed about her was her being dead. He turned to face her when her words seemed to have fallen off. He was extremely shocked to see her kiss him. Here goes these mixed signals again. He looked down at her when she pulled away. He seemed to have been in a daze from the kiss. It was so left field, but he had to admit he liked it very much. Plus she called him by his first name.
It was the first time he heard her say it since he died. A crooked smile cross his lips as he walked up behind her and shook his head to agree. There was a lot that was about to happen, but he still wants to talk more about their love lives old or new. He walked up behind her when she was talking to One-Eye and wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her into him. "Where was the cute little blush you used to get when I kissed you?" He asked pouting slightly giving her a kiss on the cheek. No matter what happened next he was just happy from the simple kiss he received. "I'll take that as I can kiss you whenever right?" He completely ignored One-Eye not caring if she heard what he was saying or not. "I would say me and you can go to my bedroom but we can take it slow." He chuckled. He loved teasing her so much. "But Since One-Eye is here also I guess we can talk about something else."

Kitty
Kitty's eye twitched slightly when Beloved wrapped his arms around her waist from behind, and held onto her as if they were lovey dovey again. This wasn't right, he was the enemy, he was getting too comfortable with her. He was supposed to fear her, at least a little, he knew what she was capable of, she almost wanted to scream at him to open his eyes, this was the real world for God's sake! One little kiss doesn't mean anything! It doesn't mean she's friendly with him. Heck, in the Bible, Judas kissed Jesus on the cheek right as he was betraying him!...Right as he was betraying him... Kitty was Judas in all this, wasn't she?
She hadn't realized her hand was in an irritated fist until, "Where was the cute little blush you used to get when I kissed you?" Since Afterlights couldn't physically blush, her Afterglow turned pink and she looked down at her feet. That's when she saw her fist, tightly clenched and trembling with the weight of Kitty's boiling frustration. She loosened up and sighed, she could use this new comfort he had with her against him, as long as she didn't screw it up this time.
His lips touched her cheek gently, but confidently. "I'll take that as I can kiss you whenever right?"How cocky! That bastard! The twitch in her eye became more evident, but she hid it with a pained smile.
"Sure. Why not?" She muttered in a less than enthusiastic tone of voice.
"I would say me and you can go to my bedroom but we can take it slow."The fist was back. "But Since One-Eye is here also I guess we can talk about something else." She breathed out a sigh of relief and squirmed out of Beloved's grip, something she seemed to be doing a lot of lately. Without saying a word, she lifted One Eye to her feet and lead them both inside the bedroom, then latched the door locked, again.
"Now, lets discus the more dire matters. Have you all heard the rumors about Mary Hightower?"

One-Eye
The girl smiled up at Kitty. She rocked from side to side on her butt as she listened to Beloved and Kitty speak of past things again. They were so perfect for each other! Well, maybe in another life they were. Here, it was kinda icky and well, unnatural and awkward. Emotions were so strange. One-Eye looked curiously at the changing after glow. She giggled a bit and wondered how this would work out. Beloved seemed to really like Kitty, even if she didn't like him back.
She was yanked to her feet and smiled, laughing as she was pulled back into the bedroom. "Now, lets discus the more dire matters. Have you all heard the rumors about Mary Hightower?" One-Eye looked at Kitty and frowned. "Well, Mary left the towers awhile back. Left for important matters, I dunno what. The guards left at the tower didn't say anything more. Why? Is she abducting more children that our dear friend Beloved should have? Sarcasm by the way, I don't believe in abducting people. Taking them after all the hope has been killed is more what I do."

Beloved
Beloved chuckled at Kitty keeping his arms around her waist. Hearing her agree to letting him kiss her whenever caused him to smile. He kept her arms around her then pulled away once she wiggled out of his grip. Sighing a little he watched her move the topic to Mary. He really much rather talk about them, but he guessed this was just as important. He walked up behind Kitty again wrapping his arm around her waist. "Well I heard she is up to something but we aren't sure what. Which is why I'm trying to get this little kitty-cat here to stay with me." He pinched her cheek with a wide grin before becoming more serious.
"I feel like you have heard more than me Kitty." From what it sounded like she knew more than him. However, it could be him hoping she knew more about the situation. Glancing at One-Eye he shook his head. "If she is taking my people then we will have some problems. I will not hesitate to kill her." He turned back to his slightly evil self but he knew he had to keep it down to a minimum not wanting to scare Kitty again. "No matter what though I have my kitten's back. Even though she might want to stab me in mine. I plan on changing that over time though." It wasn't to lovely sounding seeing hos he sounded a little too serious about it. "Now tell me Kitty everything you know. Also One-Eye I would love it if you know more about Mary that you would share it as well."

Kitty
Kitty's eye twitch became harder to ignore, now he was using pet names? Why pet names? Is he trying to ruin her stature, the strong girl, who wasn't to ever be underestimated in Everlost with putrid little nicknames? Like Kitty-cat? It was like he was trying to make her look soft, like a little child's toy with rounded edges that couldn't possibly hurt someone. Unless of course you beat someone over the head with it, but that wasn't the case, the fact of the matter was, he was toying with her, using this 'closeness' to weaken her influence. Or maybe she was just thinking too deep into this whole thing.
Obviously she was too deep in thought, trying to find different angles at which Beloved could bring her down with mere nicknames, because when she forced her brain to focus back to what was going on around her, Beloved's arms were back around her waist, his finger pinching her cheek, and the feeling that she missed something gnawing at her.
"I feel like you have heard more than me Kitty."
"Heard what?" She asked, her mind still trying to recollect the pieces of the conversation that she had missed. It hadn't been meant to sound funny, but she found that it did, and Beloved might take it the wrong way. As a little joke, something that would show that she was comfortable enough around him to crack jokes at a serious time. Let him think all he wants! Kitty thought, once again ducking away from his grasp, and sitting on the bed, crossing her legs, all business. Despite what he may think of it, it was only a small slip up of my mind when I got out of my daze. She snapped herself out of it, again, thinking too deep, Akemi, too deep!
"If she is taking my people then we will have some problems. I will not hesitate to kill her." Kitty rolled her eyes. She pretended she didn't notice the glint of evil that appeared in Beloved, he wasn't the boy she remembered, Everlost had changed him. It didn't change his outward appearance like it did One Eye and herself, but his inside, his heart. It didn't scare her as much as it worried her.
"Why is it that your first impulse is to jump in and kill whatever gets in your way, Beloved?" She muttered, rubbing her temples, "you need to think more strategically. Mary has more influence in her little finger than any of us have, children flock to her like moths to a flame. Swooping in and murdering someone like that is suicide. She's bound to have at least one fighter in her Afterlight Cumulus, and you know that." Kitty shook her head, half indicating that Beloved's boneheaded threat was just that, and that she was still trying to fight the haziness in her head. "No, that wouldn't work, this situation wouldn't resolve with her death, that would only make it swell into something worse, something we can't afford. A war." She put up her finger, signifying that she wasn't done, yet, "Before you say it, no, we can't fight a war. Mary has thousands of Afterlights on her side, and growing, and we don't know how many of those are fighters. Them against our one fighter, you, is certain death." She ran her index finger along her neck, rolled her eyes back into her head, and fell back onto the bed, moaning.
"No no no no no, we have to think of a real plan. Mary is a threat, they say she's recently sank and then came back up. That takes motivation. She's planning something, you guys may not care much for the living world but..." Kitty reached up and cupped her hand around the light that will forever come from the lightbulb above the bed. It's all that tethers me to my old life. To what could have been.

Beloved
Beloved chuckled when she asked him "Heard what?". Crossing his arms he studied her for a moment. "Too mesmerized by me?" He teased her being a little cocky about it. Beloved was still thinking about the first kiss they shared in Everlost and hardly Mary. If I can kill Mary then me and Kitty can live happily with me as ruler of Everlost! As twisted as it sounded he truly believed it was possible.
He was rudely snapped away from his thoughts hearing Kitty say something to him. Why did she have to interrupt my dreamland? Rolling his eyes he glanced down at her to listen to what she had to say to him. "Why is killing an impulse you ask? Because it is much easier to wipe the person clean off of the earth than deal with them keep coming back. See if someone had just killed Mary then let her sink to the center of the planet, then we wouldn't be having this conversation. No we would be talking about you and I not her." He pouted a little like a child as he sat down in a nearby chair. He then went on to listen to Kitty's explanation. While listening to her though he had a grin on his face.
"You don't want me to kill her because you are worried about me." It wasn't like he wasn't listening to what she was truly saying, because he had to agree with her. He was just taking her underlining tone. "Well you are right about the war, but here is the thing. If we don't kill the girl she is just going to keep coming back. That is unless I put the new spell I've created on her." It suddenly hit him that he has been working on a new spell that could possibly render Mary useless. But he would have to get close to her. Extremely close. "I'm not sure you'll like the plan though Kitty once you fall madly in love with me once again, but at least it doesn't involve killing her."

One-Eye
"I will not hesitate to kill her." One-Eye suddenly felt panicked and nearly leaped at Beloved, but held herself back. "Killing isn't nice!" she yelled like a little kid, because she practically was one. She shut up as Kitty talked, out of respect for her of course. She was the good witch and Mary was the bad one (except she was prettier than the one in the movie). She nodded along with Kitty's logic, knowing it would be full suicide if they charged in and tried to randomly kill Mary.
"Why is killing an impulse you ask? Because it is much easier to wipe the person clean off of the earth than deal with them keep coming back. See if someone had just killed Mary then let her sink to the center of the planet, then we wouldn't be having this conversation. No we would be talking about you and I not her." Was Beloved stupid? "If she sank and came back, she's obviously determined. We all knows she's bound to try something crazy again to get what she wants. You saw what happened to Nick when he went to Graceland, don't think he's been back since! And what about the fact that she doesn't love you, don't you get? She'd rather puke on you if that was physically possible than ever kiss your rotten mouth." Her eye opened wide as she realized who she'd just said- to the Beloved. She was dead now, wasn't she?

"Why is killing an impulse you ask? Because it is much easier to wipe the person clean off of the earth than deal with them keep coming back. See if someone had just killed Mary then let her sink to the center of the planet, then we wouldn't be having this conversation. No we would be talking about you and I not her."
Kitty responded to his pout with a roll of her eyes, "Beloved, dear," she began, addressing his childish look with an annoying, motherly tone, "don't forget, the events that lead up to Mary sinking happened a few years before we died. And you were the first known fighter in Everlost."
"You don't want me to kill her because you are worried about me." Kitty's face went blank, and she turned pale. I spent weeks perfecting that rant so it was a good enough argument! Weeks! And he didn't listen to a word I said![/i] She face palmed, her shoulders shaking, as she let out a long, pained moan, what's the point of trying to work with him when he's more interested in making out than the future of the universe?! "Well you are right about the war, but here is the thing. If we don't kill the girl she is just going to keep coming back. That is unless I put the new spell I've created on her.
Spells. Spells! Spells! Flippity flopin' spells? One thing she agreed with Mary on was that Spells spelled trouble. "What the hell is it with you and spells!?" She shouted before she could stop it. She quickly quieted herself and tried covering it with a smile, but it looked pretty pathetic. "Sorry, but, I'm not exactly a fan of spells, there has to be a different way!" She only realized that he'd take that last statement as jealousy for whatever he had to do with Mary to get it to make an effect. She just knew it was something awkward by the sly look on his smug face and the way he said, "I'm not sure you'll like the plan though Kitty once you fall madly in love with me once again, but at least it doesn't involve killing her."
Beloved had to know that he was an open book.
That's when Kitty caught the end of what One Eye was shouting to Beloved, "And what about the fact that she doesn't love you, don't you get? She'd rather puke on you if that was physically possible than ever kiss your rotten mouth." When Beloved wasn't paying attention, she quick slid her hand across her neck, in a motion like she was slicing her own throat, and shook her head, trying to let the girl know that this was part of her plan. And then quickly stopped when Beloved's attention was back. She quick stepped in front of One Eye to shield her from whatever Beloved was about to shoot at her.
Nico
Nico flicked a strand of black hair out of his face, a blank look on his face. His face was showed no emotion, his cheeks still a bit rounded, showing that he was still quite a child. He pulled his pair of red glasses out of the pocket on his jacket and perched them on his nose.
He looked down at the note in his hand. It was a tip from another Afterlight, though, it didn't help him much. All it said, in messy letters was, "Beloved has a weakness." Just looking at the pathetic note made him frown and crush it in his hand. This note definantly wasn't worth the glass of grape juice he had traded. Once Nico got his hands on that lousy tipper, oh! It wasn't going to be pretty! Though, it did give him a glimmer of hope, at least there was a weakness.
He turned a corner and watched as a girl with pink hair peeped out of a door and helped none other than the lovely One Eye into the room with her before shutting and latching the door behind her. This was interesting. He walked casually to the door and pressed his ear against the heavy wood, Beloved was in there, One Eye, and the pink haired girl whose name appeared to be named Kitty. Now, why did that name ring a bell?
After a while, he brought his fist up and rapped quietly on the door.

Beloved
Beloved ignored One-Eye not really wanting to talk to her right now. looking up at Kitty he frowned a little. Why was she always yelling at him? Didn't he show her enough love? A sly smirk tugged at the corners of his lips listening to her. "Why Kitty is that a hint of jealousy I hear coming from you? I didn't know you cared so much about me." He slid his hand into hers then gave her a wide smile. It resembled the one he used to have in the living world. Crossing his arms over his chest he listened to Kitty before turning and realizing what One-Eye was saying to him. He was pretty sure of what he was hearing right now. Turning to face One-Eye the same amount of hatred and anger he showed earlier returned. "Excuse me?" He asked as if offended by her words. Kitty doesn't love him?! Who was she to say such a thing?! Just as he took a step towards her he saw Kitty stand in front of him. Stepping closer to Kitty he looked down at her. "Move."
With such a simpleminded word Kitty moved to the side just enough for him to walk up to One-Eye. He did love using spells no matter what anyone said to him about it. "I never want to hear such fowl words coming from you of all people. You have no idea what you are talking about and until you do I suggest you keep you idiotic comments to yourself." He was in a bad mood now and wasn't sure if anything was going to change it right now. "Maybe if you got kissed by someone as amazing as me you wouldn't say such a statement." He held her face with one hand before letting go. "You both are talking to me as if I don't understand the full situation here. In fact I do and I'm trying to get Kitty to help me, but for some reason she is being to damn stubborn about it." He cut a quick glance at Kitty then back to One-Eye. "I should kill you right here and now. Yeah, I bet you're the one who was drilling bad stuff about me to Kitty. That's why she hates me!"
Beloved couldn't think of any other reason why Kitty would hate him. He was still like his old self in the living world right? Before even thinking he launched his hand out and grabbed One-Eye's neck lifting her off of the ground a little. Looking at her he dropped her to the floor when he heard a knock on the door. Cracking his neck he went to answer. "Who the hell told y-" He cut himself off seeing it was Nico. "Oh it's just you." He sunk back a little turning his back to Nico to turn to face Kitty and One-Eye once again. "Do you think I honestly love Kitty? I'm trying to use her for my own selfish gain. And she will be my Sacrifice and endure all of my pain. I don't care if it kills her." If Kitty remembered Beloved's true self in the living world she would know he was really trying to hide how hurt he was right now. Pushing pass Nico he groaned. "Don't let either of them leave." He stormed out somewhere in his castle.

One-Eye
She glanced at Kitty, who seconds ago had been doing some weird sort of dance move as far as the one eyed girl was concerned. Kitty then stepped in front of her, filling the girl's vision with light pink hair. Oooh, so pretty! One-Eye began playing with the hair, braiding it happily. Until she heard an angry voice. The sheer power behind it was enough to make her want to hide in a corner, using her dear friend as an Afterlight shield. What were friends for after all?
One-Eye let out a small scream as Kitty moved an inch- enough for the Beloved to be standing above her. "I never want to hear such fowl words coming from you of all people. You have no idea what you are talking about and until you do I suggest you keep you idiotic comments to yourself." She let out a small whimper, taking a small step back as he yelled at her. Idiotic? Who was he calling idiotic? She was perfectly intelligent- she'd made it this far hadn't she? "Maybe if you got kissed by someone as amazing as me you wouldn't say such a statement." She couldn't help but laugh at this comment, though she quickly looked at the floor afterwards. Beloved? Being kissed? Wasn't that somehow illegal in the laws of both Everlost and the real world?
Quite honestly, she wasn't sure she herself had ever gotten a kiss. She hardly remembered or cared about her living life anyways. She reckoned she would like a kiss, but she really was just a kid, and she was always traveling up and down the East Coast. She didn't have time for relationships other than business related ones.
"I should kill you right here and now. Yeah, I bet you're the one who was drilling bad stuff about me to Kitty. That's why she hates me!" The poor girl stared up at Beloved, terrified and knowing he'd do everything in his power to torture her, to feel something like pain. "Kitty!" she cried, running to the pink haired girl and hugging her tightly. It was probably a good thing she didn't need to breathe. One-Eye was scared and had right to be, because the nest thing she knew, she was being lifted by the neck. "I-I didn't tell her that! She has a brain and she uses it the right way. Please let me gooo-o!" she squawked and squealed.
There was a knock on the door, signaling her release. She landed on her feet and looked up to see Nico curiously standing at the door. Yay! Another person to witness her undoing! The dark haired boy turned back to them and spoke again. What he said confused her "Do you think I honestly love Kitty? I'm trying to use her for my own selfish gain. And she will be my Sacrifice and endure all of my pain. I don't care if it kills her." Wait, so now he was admitting that he was a horrible person using others for personal gain and lack of pain? Had she lost her mind? Before she could say anything though, Beloved snapped some orders at Nico and left.
"I'm outta here!" One-Eye cried, having suffered enough of the Beloved's abuse for the time being. She started to the door, not really caring what happened to Kitty anymore. The girl was good to her, but she'd rather not get in the middle of these complicated affairs.

Kitty
Before she could do anything to stop Beloved's spell, Kitty was moved to the side just far enough to grant Beloved easy access to One Eye. Damn spells!She thought bitterly. Kitty whimpered when he grabbed the blue haired girl's face, sure that he was going to kill her right there, and she couldn't move to help her, the spell kept her still and will keep her still for a bit longer. She breathed out a sigh of relief when he let go to keep on ranting. "I should kill you right here and now. Yeah, I bet you're the one who was drilling bad stuff about me to Kitty. That's why she hates me!"
"Dammit Beloved, One Eye hasn't done anything, it's you using those stupid spells on me! I hate it when you use spells on me! Aroomf!" Suddenly there was a One Eye holding onto her. She ran her finger through the girl's hair trying to comfort her, "Don't worry, hunny, I won't let him do anything to you." She said, shooting Beloved a warning glance. But suddenly, his hands were around the young girls neck and One Eye was no longer hugging her.
A small rap on the door caused Beloved to drop her. From the hallway came a young boy that she had never met before, but she had heard of him. But, Kitty didn't pay much attention to his arrival. No, her focus was on what Beloved was saying. "Do you think I honestly love Kitty? I'm trying to use her for my own selfish gain. And she will be my Sacrifice and endure all of my pain. I don't care if it kills her."
Her hands were clenched in anger, though, inside her, she was trying to hold back tears. Everlost turned him into a monster! She thought, her eyes wide. She knew what he said was true all along, but hearing him admit it was too much to bear.
She pushed the boy aside, and, dispite his orders, he didn't do anything to stop her, and she followed Beloved. She followed him straight to a balcony, while he stood out there, she stayed still, standing in the doorway, tears streaming down her face. She was an emotional girl, Akemi was, but she was always good at hiding them until she saw Hayato, she knew she could let out all of her emotions around him.
"What the hell happened to you, Hayato?" She asked, her voice small, "I knew it was you all along, but you've changed so much after you died, what for?"
Nico
"Oh it's just you."
Nico jammed his hands into his pockets and stepped into the room. "Nice to see you too, sir." He said sarcastically, looking pass Beloved to One Eye, his afterglow blushing. "Sorry I'm late for this delightful meeting, but," his voice easily hid his emotions, his face blank apart from the occasional sarcastic raise of his eyebrow, "I had some business to attend to, but, I assure you, I am ready to help with anyth-" He cut off his sentence, no one was listening anyway, plus, the words coming from Beloved's mouth were rather interesting.
"Do you think I honestly love Kitty? I'm trying to use her for my own selfish gain. And she will be my Sacrifice and endure all of my pain. I don't care if it kills her." Ah, so this girl is his sacrifice. His face didn't show the smugness he felt at this new information.
"Don't let either of them leave."
"Do I look like a babysitting service?" He muttered to Beloved's back. The girl, Kitty, followed close behind, and Nico didn't bother to stop her, let her do what she wants, I don't care. His eyes went to One Eye, trying to escape. He held his arm out to stop her. "Sorry, masters orders." He shrugged, "So, how about telling me what all this is about?"

Beloved
Beloved leaned his elbows on the balcony feeling incredibly stressed. He wanted to go back and kill one-Eye luckily for her Nico knocked on the door and Kitty was there. Otherwise she would be lying on the floor slowly sinking into the dark depths of this world. Letting out a frustrated sigh he looked out at Everlost just wishing he was looking out his bedroom window in the living world. Running his fingers through his hair he closed his eyes taking deep breaths. He had to calm down but it wasn't as easy as last time. Why was he so frustrated? Oh yeah life was pretty difficult here in Everlost. Was he too harsh back there? No. He has to be firm or this world would consume him. He was yanked out of his thoughts when he heard Kitty come up behind him.
"Why the hell did he not listen to me? What do you want Kitty?" Turning around his eyes widened a little seeing she was crying. Hearing her calm him by his name Hayato it caused him to feel even worse. Turning back around he returned to leaning on the railing. "What you don't understand Kitty is that this is who I always was. I was just to cowardly to show you this side in the real world. If I did you would be treating just like you are now." Sighing again he turned back to face her his eyes holding some type of dark aurora in them. "I use people in this world. Honestly it brings me some kind of happiness to see they are miserable just like I've been my entire life. Here and the living world. They should all feel my pain."
There was much he never told her about his real life. Most of everything he told her was a lie. "I was such a scared person in the real world I never came to you with my problems with fears of you leaving me. Now that I think back I don't know if I was using you for your affection or if I really did love you." Leaning back a little he sat down on the ground looking up at her. "If you don't want to be my Sacrifice then I can break the bond that we have. Just know if I do that I will most likely either die or join forces with Mary. If she wants to take this world and the living world I will lend her my full support. But your wrong about Everlost changing me, I'm changing Everlost."

"What! You let Kitty go, but you wouldn't let me leave? What kind of servant are you?" She pouted at the little boy standing before her. She sighed, knowing that he wouldn't let her past even if she faked a heart attack. Well, that would be a horrible way to try and get out of here, very cheesy. One-Eye sat down on the floor, looking up at uh, what was his name? Nala... no, Nate-no. Wait, wait, she had it! Nikon!
"So, how about telling me what all this is about?" One-Eye facepalmed. This kid really was an idiot wasn't he? Who was Beloved to yell at her, when the kids in his own hallway were worse than her? "Nikon, are you dumb?" she asked. "Kitty is Belovely's Sacrifice. And she hates his sorry guts. Me, I personally don't give a tree about him as long as he doesn't kill me. Like he almost did before you came in. Thanks for that by the way. Wait, why am I talking to you? You could go tell him something or other. I'm gonna stop talking now." A stubborn and ridiculous One-Eye crossed her arms over her small chest and looked away from Nikon.

I use people in this world. Honestly it brings me some kind of happiness to see they are miserable just like I've been my entire life. Here and the living world. They should all feel my pain."
More tears came, normally, she would have wiped them away, but she left them there. How come she was so strong when One Eye was around, but when she was alone with him, she fell apart? Kitty found herself stepping backwards at his words. "So, you lied to me?" She asked, her lower lip quivering, "you know I still love you, why'd you have to hide yourself from me?" She didn't know if she was trembling from anger or sadness, probably both.
"I was such a scared person in the real world I never came to you with my problems with fears of you leaving me. Now that I think back I don't know if I was using you for your affection or if I really did love you."
She stumbled back another step wincing, it felt almost like the night she died, like someone had just plunged an icy blade into her chest, and that the image of Hayato's panicked face when she realized she'd never tell him 'I love you' again. Though this revelation hurt more than the real thing. She clutched her chest as if she was afraid he'd come over and tear her heart out...to late. "You never loved me?" The words came out as a pained whimper.
He sat on the ground and looked at her with dark eyes, evil eyes, "If you don't want to be my Sacrifice then I can break the bond that we have. Just know if I do that I will most likely either die or join forces with Mary. If she wants to take this world and the living world I will lend her my full support. But your wrong about Everlost changing me, I'm changing Everlost."
Akemi shook her head an turned to face away from him. "Why are you doing this to me, Hayato? You can't take the living world away from me, it's all that I have left to remind me that our love wasn't an illusion...though, maybe it actually was." A tear rolled down her cheek and landed on the ground, followed by more.
Nico
"Nikon, are you dumb?" Nico turned around, looking out the door and back at One eye. Who the heck is Nikon? He thought, obviously confused by the girl's mix up with his name. "Kitty is Belovely's Sacrifice. And she hates his sorry guts. Me, I personally don't give a tree about him as long as he doesn't kill me. Like he almost did before you came in. Thanks for that by the way. Wait, why am I talking to you? You could go tell him something or other. I'm gonna stop talking now." This girl was strange. Pretty. But strange.
He sighed and sat down in front of her, crossing his arms as well. "First off," he began, "I'm not Nikon, I'm Nico, but nice try, all the same. Also, Belovely? There's not much about that guy that is in any way lovely." He rolled his eyes, "Now, don't worry about me telling Beloved, I only tell him what I want to tell him and I promise, this conversation is confidential." Nico looked at her a bit before continuing, "and no, I'm not stupid, if I was stupid, I wouldn't have been able to get so high up in Beloved's court. I kind of figured out the whole 'Sacrifice' thing a bit ago. I wanted to know what this meeting was all about."

Beloved
There was something inside him telling him what he was saying was wrong and he should stop himself but he couldn't. Kitty may have been a little right about Everlost pulling out the darkness within him from the deepest depths of his heart. He looked up at Kitty and shook his head. "You love me? I doubt that. Especially now. Believe me Kitty when I say if I could get you out of this world I would." He looked to the side then back at the space between them. They were close yet so far away from each other. There was no way she was going to help someone as twisted as him now. Maybe it was about time he give in to his darker side? It would be much easier to help Mary out then fight against her. Beloved did have the potential to be the strongest Fighter in all of Everlost, but without Kitty he would only almost be the strongest. "In short I'm not sure if I loved you or the idea of you."
He knew his words were extremely harsh but he guessed now was the best time to tell her everything. He looked up at her once again feeling slight pain for her. Only if she had the same thought process as him it would all be easier. It was clear though he was putting her through enough pain and agony already just from looking at her. "It would have been nice to hear you say this a while ago you know?" He chuckled a little then stood up knowing none of this was actually funny. Walking up behind her he wrapped his arms around her waist. "Kitty I suggest you leave my castle. I'm only falling deeper into the pool of darkness and pretty soon you might not even recognize me." He gave her a light squeeze then pulled away from her completely. "You should go back to your kids and tell them how horrible I am. Make them hate me even more. When you think they are ready come after me and try to kill me. Trust me this is the only way. Otherwise I will kill them and...you."
Beloved felt himself beginning to sink deeper and deeper into darkness. What was this thirst to kill? It even surprised him a little. The truth is Beloved has a lot of hatred towards the living world and most of all his family. He wanted them to suffer more then anyone. "My family...my family shall suffer. I can't wait to see the looks on their faces when I can finally appear before them and completely annihilate them." A wicked smirk grew on his lips as he turned his back to Kitty. "I love you, but if you stop me from my goal of destroying the human world I will get rid of you as well." He has never told anyone of his private meetings with someone very close to Mary, someone like how Nico is to Beloved. That is how he knows of Mary coming back. Was it her causing him to be like this? Something was making him grow his hatred towards people and he wasn't sure what it was. "I won't have to live in fear in this world nor will I have the pain of losing someone close if I simply get rid of everything precious to me. There is nothing to lose if you don't have anything to begin with."

"I'm not Nikon, I'm Nico, but nice try, all the same. Nico, Nikon, hey, she was close. Also, Belovely? There's not much about that guy that is in any way lovely... Now, don't worry about me telling Beloved, I only tell him what I want to tell him and I promise, this conversation is confidential." Of course she knew Beloved wasn't much better than the McGill, though he'd been in a considerably good mood the last time she'd talked to him. But it was good to hear this kid could be trusted. Either that or she was trusting people too easily again. "I thought I'd try and not get myself killed for once thank you very much," she responded confidently. "I'm still calling you Nikon because I'm older than you... I bet." The kid looked about ten to One-Eye.
"...if I was stupid, I wouldn't have been able to get so high up in Beloved's court. I kind of figured out the whole 'Sacrifice' thing a bit ago. I wanted to know what this meeting was all about." One-Eye looked curiously at Nico and blinked a few times. If this guy was so high up on Beloved's scale, then why didn't he know of his master's important uh, political matters? "What are you to him exactly? I think I'm an annoyance. Anyways, they were just discussing defeating Mary the Sky Witch. Then I said some things I shouldn't have and you came along."

Kitty
Kitty shook her head, this wasn't her Hayato, this was some disgusting parasite that needed to be exterminated. She wiped the tears off of her face and put on her best poker face. "I don't need to tell my kids how awful you are, they already know. You've made that reputation up yourself. If you're going to act idiotic like this, I have no choice but to..." She sighed, her shoulders drooping, "ignore it. I should've known it even when we were alive, I should've prepared for this, you used to get angry easily and lash out, but I ignored that, too, and you'd compose yourself for me when you saw how it hurt me. But now, in Everlost, there are no boundaries, you are only limited by your imagination. You don't have to pretend, and, therefore, you don't have to care." She began walking closer to him until she was so close, it was almost claustrophobic. "Well, two can play at that game, my dear, and you'll see just how much it hurts when the one you love doesn't care."
Kitty grinned, then reached up and wove her fingers through his hair, and smashed her lips against his. She stood there for who knows how long, keeping a grip on him that wouldn't allow him to move, then backed up. "Goodbye my love." She stepped back a few feet and grinned ear to ear, then, even more unexpected than the kiss, she slapped him hard in the face. It wouldn't actually give him pain, but it was meant to snap him out of whatever the heck he was in, and, it would hurt his pride as well. The grin was gone, replaced by anger.
"Slap out of it, dammit!" She shouted, "and when you do, come back to me, okay? Kiss me, hug me, and tell me you love me you lousy son of a bitch, and then," Kitty turned around, her voice quieted and more neutral, "we can talk about maybe...becoming a true pair, I may become your sacrifice, Hayato, but first, you need to think real hard. I'll be waiting, okay? Remember what I said."
She walked to the door and hesitated. "I also might have a way to go back to the living world...I'll have to look into it more, but, that would sure be cool, huh?" And with that, she left Beloved alone in the room and stopped by the room where One Eye was with Nico.
"Come on, One Eye, we still need to talk about those trading things, and, about Mary." She passed Nico, pushing him to the side and grabbing One Eye's wrist, then pulling her out. They walked in silence until they reached the apartment. Her children ran out, excited and relieved to see her. And no Beloved. She was bombarded with questions, but she pushed through the crowd. They backed off, though her face showed no emotion, they could tell something was off.
She dragged One Eye into her 'business room' and sat down on the wooden desk, crossing her legs and plastering on a smile. "Now, let's talk business, shall we?"
Nico
"For your information, I'm twelve years old!" Nico declared, confidently, until he realized that One Eye was 13, and he shrank back, "with 35 years of experience." He offered, okay, maybe it was 24 years, but he wasn't quite sure when One Eye had died, so he thought best to tack a few extra years on for good measure.
"What are you to him exactly? I think I'm an annoyance."
"I'm his right hand man." He stated with some overconfidence.
"Anyways, they were just discussing defeating Mary the Sky Witch. Then I said some things I shouldn't have and you came along."
Nico tapped his chin thoughtfully, "Mary Hightower? I heard she sunk, shows how much I know, damn that Beloved!" He stomped his foot grouchily, "Is that all? I thought they would have discussed more on the sacrifice issue-" He would've said more, but suddenly, the girl, Kitty, entered the room. He didn't stop her, what was the point? "Goodbye ladies." He muttered as they left, and then walked out to attend to other business.

Beloved
Beloved looked at Kitty a bit surprised. At first he was dismissing everything she was saying until she called him Hayato again. What shocked him even more was how close she was to him. Looking down at her he decided to stay silent and listen to her. He stared upon her quizzically when she had a grin on her face. What was so funny? Beloved's eyes widened when he felt her lips against his. Everything was going to fast for him to keep up with her actions. He blinked a couple of times slightly dumbfounded by the kiss. By the time he was slapped he wouldn't have noticed if his head didn't turn along with the movement of her hand.
Bringing his hand up to his face as if it hurt, but he knew it didn't. It was just a habit of his. He turned to loo at her with a slightly more well put together look then from earlier. Was she giving him permission to kiss her if he didn't carry out the plan he was thinking of? He was pretty sure she was. A smile tugged at the corners of his lips hearing such blissful news from her. Staying silent he watched her walk away and he couldn't stop staring at her back. "She said I could kiss her." It was the only thing he really remembered about everything she said or at least what stuck out the most to him. Yes, she was going to rule over Everlost with him. Walking down the hall he waited for her to leave with One-Eye then followed Nico down the hall. Bending down a little he wrapped his arm around Nico's shoulder.
"Listen here kid. If you don't listen to me next time I will make sure to torture you." If someone really knew Beloved they would know he was truly a hundred percent about what he was saying. He would really torture Nico if he felt the need to. "Now why did you come into the room during such an important conversation hm?" Now that he thought about it did he tell Nico of Mary's return? No probably not. Surely the boy was mad at him now for not telling him. Oh well right? Sighing he thought back to Kitty then smiled. "What do you think of the girl with pink hair? Cute right? I'll let you know now if you go near her I will not hesitate to kill you too." Smiling at Nico he looked back in front of him to keep walking.

"You don't look a day over ten!" she commented, laughing. "I think I have at least five years experience? I don't remember." She tilted her head to the side, listening as he spoke some more in response to what she'd told him. One-Eye was confused about how such a small kid had gotten this far still. But hey, 34 years sounded pretty long. He mentioned the Sacrifice thing, but as he did, the teal haired girl found herself being pulled up by Kitty. She seemed... calmer?
She wasn't quite one for leaving yet. She was enjoying her conversation with Nico. But she didn't exactly have a choice. "Goodbye ladies," Nico said as they left. She waved to him and followed Kitty out of the castle. Soon enough, they were back at her apartment. The children swarmed around them like flies to a dead cow.
After getting away from the crowd, she was led by Kitty into her business room as she liked to call it. One-Eye made herself comfortable, sitting on a beat up chair near the desk. "Yes Kitty? You wanted to see me?" she asked, acting like she was in the principal's office (though she didn't remember what a principal was or did). "How'd your talk with Beloved go? Sort things out so we can kick Mary's butt?" She was curious actually, she loved these sort of affairs. "Oh! i got the picture frame you wanted." She retrieved it from her bag and set it on the desk confidently.

Nico
"Listen here kid. If you don't listen to me next time I will make sure to torture you." Nico made an 'oomf' sound when Beloved came up behind him and wrapped his arm around the small boy's shoulder. He frowned, but it didn't really matter, Nico always frowned.
"Sorry, sir Beloved, she didn't look happy when she left to find you, I didn't want to mess with her, she didn't seem like the type who'd deal well with being confined with me." He sighed, it was partially the truth, the other part was that he didn't feel like listening to Beloved's orders and that he wanted to be alone with One Eye, he admitted.
"Now why did you come into the room during such an important conversation hm?"
Nico shrugged, "I heard about it from a guard and thought that you'd want you adviser with you if you were making important decisions." He snuck a glance at Beloved, his afterglow seemed a bit lavender contrary to when he stormed out earlier when it was dark and angry, what had that girl done to him? The boy's eyes widened, what had they done together when they were up there? Wasn't Beloved's bedroom in that direction? He shuddered and averted his eyes, could afterlights even do that?
"What do you think of the girl with pink hair? Cute right? I'll let you know now if you go near her I will not hesitate to kill you too."
Nico cringed, "Sure, sir, she'd adorable, you have great taste in dead girls. And don't worry, I won't go near her, she's all yours." He found it incredibly creepy that Beloved was all smiles, I don't even want to know why he's so happy. Teenagers are disgusting!
Kitty
"How'd your talk with Beloved go? Sort things out so we can kick Mary's butt?"
Kitty made a funny face, "It was interesting, I think I've convinced him to help us, but trust me, it wasn't easy." She thought back to the moments before and after the kiss. She was surprised she wasn't bipolar while she was alive, her emotions had gone from neutral, to maniacal, to happy, to angry, she found it incredibly amazing that Beloved could keep up with them all. "Oi, anyway, yeah, we have everything sorted out, but we'll have to keep a close eye on him, he's real unstable, I don't get it." Kitty tapped her lip with her index finger as she talked, "if he starts acting all dark tell me and I'll smack him again."
She leaned over and grabbed the picture frame from One Eye and the corners of her mouth turned up, it was the right size. "Thank you, dear." She pulled a picture off of the desk next to her and slipped it into the frame, then looked at the picture. It was one that had crossed with her. The back of it, in Hayato's messy handwriting read: The lovely Akemi as Belle and the Beastly Hayato as the Beast in school production of Beauty and the Beast. She couldn't help but grin, that was how they started dating. Kitty stroked the frame and set it on the desk. It was a perfect picture, a scene at the end that some of the other kids had dared them to do, instead of hugging to turn the beast into a prince like the school wanted, they locked lips. The pair got in plenty of trouble for it, but the picture of her in the gorgeous gown and Hayato in the torn up tux after his 'transformation' kissing was well worth it. "That boy sure is crazy and since the next time we meet up with him, he'll probably still have his head in the clouds, we'll need to do the planning ourselves."
A knock on the door interrupted her thoughts and a boy who appeared to be 14 called Clock came inside. He held up his clock and frowned at her. She nodded, "I apologize, I have to go train the little squirts, you can come with if you like." Kitty said, hopping off of the desk and walking out of the room and to an elevator.

One-Eye
One-Eye swayed back and forth happily as Kitty spoke of Beloved. The results of such a short meeting surprised her. He had agreed to help them? To what extent? And what was he getting out of it then? "...we'll have to keep a close eye on him, he's real unstable, I don't get it. If he starts acting all dark tell me and I'll smack him again." "Yeah! But isn't he always acting dark and all 'Roar! I'm going to rip your head off?' Eh, whatever. I'm fine with him being slapped. He is very unstable. You go girl!" One-Eye jumped up and started cheering, parading around the room a bit before Kitty snapped out of her love for the picture and its frame.
She sat back down quickly as if nothing had happened. She smiled at Kitty as she continued to speak of Beloved. "That boy sure is crazy and since the next time we meet up with him, he'll probably still have his head in the clouds, we'll need to do the planning ourselves." One-Eye considered this. What the heck had Kitty done to Beloved?! "Uh, why is he in happy land? And what are we planning? Are we planning a party? I love parties!"
Both girls' attention was directed to the door as a boy a little older than One-Eye came in and interrupted them, much like Nico and Kitty each had done before. Kitty apologized and soon left the room, going to train the 'little squirts'. As much as she'd love to see the kids in training and note their progress, she was likely late. Late, late, late, for a not so important date. The young teenager jumped off the chair and proceeded out of the room, running to Kitty's side. Her hair was so pretty... So soft and pink... and pink. One-Eye wondered why her hair was teal, she didn't think a girl her age would have colored hair in the living world. Maybe it was her favourite color.
"As much as I'd love to see the kiddos jackin' some people or trying to rip objects, I think I need to go. I'm booked. But uh, have fun?" She looked warily at Clock, before whispering "Don't let them get addicted," to Kitty. Having nothing more to do, One-Eye led herself out of the apartment, passing a few students as she went. They should be used to her by now she hoped, considering their leader and the monster were two of her most common customers.
"Ah crap, I gotta go find kids," she mumbled as she walked from the building. Beloved keeping her caged up had caused a delay in a very important meeting with one of his own servants. She also needed to find the traps the McGill had given her and check for any new Greensouls. Checking in her bag to see if she had everything- because training skinjackers and possible rippers should not be trusted, she turned southwards.

Beloved
Beloved listened to Nico and chuckled. Still having his arm around the younger male he sighed. "Yeah I know she is adorable." Still smiling he looked at a guard then back to Nico who kept talking. To be honest most of what he was saying was in the back of his mind. He kept replaying when Kitty kissed him in his head. It was such a wonderful kiss. He chose to ignore the rather rude slap, but it was somewhat necessary. Beloved looked back down at Nico raising an eyebrow before removing his arm to slap him upside the head. "Stop thinking perverted thoughts. Me and Kitty didn't do anything. She only kissed me then slapped the hell out of me. But in the future I would like for something to happen, but that is too much for your immature mind." He smirked letting his mind drift off to rather unfavorable thoughts.
Shaking his head he kept walking until they reached the front door. "I'll ask you Nico. Should I go see her or not?" What would he do if he wasn't around her? He might try and work on the spell he was talking about earlier to use on Mary. "Nico if you were a girl I would try my new spell but I can't. Why do you have to be a buy?" He questioned turning his back to look at the large door before him. "Well I guess I'll go work on some new spells. If you wish to accompany me that would be fine." Beloved left the door then headed to another room down the hall. He stopped in front of a white door with black writing that looked like Latin. Speaking the words that were on the door he walked in. Inside there were different sized bottles that had various shapes to them. Each had it's own unique color and style to it.
Stepping over to the table resting in the middle of the room he looked up at Nico. "Don't let anyone come in here so shut the door will yah?" He questioned picking up an empty bottle and mixing it with a blue liquid and a purple one. "If I could create a dragon that would be amazing." It wasn't the spell he was planning on using on Mary, but if there were to be a war it would be a lot easier to have such a great beast on his side. Was it even possible to create such an animal? It hasn't been done before but Beloved wanted to try it. "Nico pass me the Pink bottle beside you."

One-Eye
She decided to check the nearest trap, but was surprised to find that not only was it in effect, but there was also another troubled Afterlight staring up at him. She was younger, much younger. The boy appeared to be about her age, while the girl was no older than 8. "Children!" she called to them, speeding up her walking as much as one could in Everlost. The two kids looked at her, bewildered. One-Eye noted that the girl wasn't sinking. Greensouls for sure!
"Be calm, don't move. I'll cut you down. But you have to do me a favor first. I know two people. One is very good, and one is very bad. One of you must go to the bad monster and the other can go along or be with my nice friend. She'll try to teach you things." She looked at the food she'd set out and picked it up, then gave it to the small girl. "So who would like to go with whom?" She hated having to capture kids like this. It was just wrong. But she hadn't any time to lead them to a safer group. The younger ones she tended to save from Beloved's wrath. The older ones were handed over. So the boy didn't have a very good chance.
Neither gave her a response and she groaned, then got the boy down form the net. "Are you two siblings?" A nod. "Alright, would you like to stay together?" Another nod. "You'll have to go to the bad man then. I'm sorry." She grabbed their wrists and started dragging them along with her. She could come back for the net later.
A good struggle later and a few slaps later, One-Eye and the two children arrived at Beloved's castle. She shoved the two to three guards. "Treat them nice. I don't want to hear that they've been sunk," she snapped, then walked back into the castle. She found the guy she was looking for and pulled him aside. One-Eye pulled out a crossed knife she'd found. It wasn't the most effective thing in the world, but it was close enough. The boy nodded approvingly. "Nice job One-Eye. So what was our deal again?"
"You know what it is Tom, you tell me Beloved's weakness." She looked at him disapprovingly. Despite being the same age as Nico, he was at least four inches taller than her.
"His Sacrifice is a good one."
"I know that!" she yelled, a bit too loudly. She looked around and waved away the questioning glances others were giving her before returning to a whisper. "You said you knew something else. Lots have said that, but your information was more promising than the others. Now what is it?" Her Afterglow was beginning to turn red, while the Tom's was turning a bit grey.
He shoved her against the wall. "We can't talk here, keep your voice down," he growled, leaning closer to her. One-Eye knew this wasn't good. "Give me a kiss and maybe I'll tell you." To that, she responded by kneeing him in the nuts-long enough to distract him- and starting to run, with him following.

Kitty
"Uh, why is he in happy land? And what are we planning? Are we planning a party? I love parties!"
Kitty blushed and shook off the question with a wave of her hand, "It's not important, don't worry. And, no, I'm sorry, but no parties here, if only it could be that easy. But no, more than likely we're planning for a war, that's why planning and training is top priority, as well as gathering allies."
"Don't let them get addicted, Ah crap, I gotta go find kids,"
She nodded and waved goodbye as One-Eye scampered off, "no problem!" She Kitty shouted, "try to bring back some allies for us, we need all the help we can get, okay!"
When One-Eye was out of sight, Kitty turned back to the children standing in the lobby waiting for instructions from her. She clapped her hands and pointed to the elevator, "Rippers, time for training! As well as you, Sarah, and you, Rez."
She watched as a group of Ecto-Ripping Afterlights crowded around the elevators. "Mail-Man!" Kitty called out. A boy, about 15 came over and bowed slightly. "I want you to go to Beloved's castle and deliver a message, okay? I want you to ask him to come over, asap, can you do that?"
He looked scared, but nodded, "anything for you, Kitty." She smiled and kissed him on the cheek.
"Be strong, and don't worry, you'll be fine."
He blushed and turned to leave. She turned back to the elevator and made her way to the training room where the kids were waiting for her. Two of them rushed up to her and both crossed their arms at her.
"Why'd you call us up here, boss?" Rez asked, smacking his gum at her.
"Yeah, Miss Kitty, we aint Ecto-Rippers!" Sarah added, pulling nervously at the wad of gum that would forever be stuck in her messy blonde hair.
Kitty had found a few weeks ago that twins, Sarah and Rez, were a pair quite like her and Beloved, in that they were a Fighter and Sacrifice combo, though neither of them knew it yet. She was planning to have Beloved come and help her train the two of them, so she wanted them on standby to start as soon as he came, if he came.
"I have some special training for you two, but I'm waiting for someone to come by and help me with it, okay?" They nodded and stood back to watch as Kitty trained the Ecto-Rippers. Beloved had his own agenda to make up for things he'd done in the past, but Kitty was planning for the future. And these Ecto Rippers might just make her plan possible.
Nico
Nico followed Beloved, listening to him ramble on and on about Kitty, adding "ahs" and "Uh-huhs", at appropriate times.
"Nico if you were a girl I would try my new spell but I can't. Why do you have to be a buy?"
He coughed and muttered less than enthusiastically, "I apologize for the inconvenience, sir, I'll make sure to ask God that if I ever get out of this hellish place."
"Don't let anyone come in here so shut the door will yah? Nico pass me the Pink bottle beside you."
Nico tossed the bottle to Beloved and turned to the door, "I'm leaving, okay, sir?" He didn't wait for an answer before leaving and shutting the door behind him.
