Lucas Dualian

Did you know cats have 9 lives?

0 · 274 views · located in Night Universe

a character in “Night Realm”, as played by ShadtheWerepire

Description

Name: Lucas Dualian
Age/Age Appeared: 18
Gender: Male

Appearance: http://wallpaper.goodfon.com/image/93407-1920x1200.jpg
Personality: Lucas is a brave young man, much like a cat he takes curiosity to a dangerous level and tends to get himself into trouble with only his luck to help him get out of it. However his personality varies significantly due to a constant absorption of surrounding auras. He tends to leech on to other people emotions and feel their pain or pleasure which can lead him to be very anti-social when he gets sick of it all.
He has a “second side” that takes effect when he sees his reflection, he has chosen to call Luke. This is his Demon side, the actual monster side of him, when he’s normal his humanity gives him tact and reason, as soon as that is gone all morals are thrown aside and he truly is monstrous, driven by selfish desires and bloodshed, chaos is his only companion. Thus Lucas avoids mirrors or other reflective objects as they bring out the worst in him and weaken him significantly.
Sexuality: Bisexual, he goes back and forth depending on who he's been hanging around.

Species: Felizimito (don’t bother looking it up I made it up XD) Copycat-Demon
Weakness: Mirrors (And Love if you’re desperate to pin him as a demon…)
Fear: A total loss of humanity, Lucas may be a monster but if Luke ever took total control of himself he would not be able to fight on.

History:History: He remembers the coming of the eternal night as a sad day, while the darkness never scared him the light of day was beautiful and inviting. He lived his life as a human before the war his powers were almost nonexistent, in fact he was just worried about how strange it was he didn’t have a familiar. A few neighborhood cats would follow him around as a kid but none were truly attached to him.

Everything changed when the war began, he was determined to fight as demons and vampires began to take over, but one day he found his reflection had changed, after a brawl with who knows what kinds of monsters, he found himself bloodied and bruised a trail of blood running from his mouth as sharpened canines ached with thirst. His hands were clawed and covered with fur like those of a werewolf and his back was shredded by a pair of feathered wings. The reflection terrified him as he realized he was no longer human himself and Luke took over for the first time. The demonic side that had been dormant all his life was alive and fueled him to force the humans out of what was now monster territory while Lucas was forced to watch all the destruction and bloodshed around him.

Now he finds himself in the company of monsters, and as a felizimito he fits right in for the most part, and whenever his identity as a monster is threatened Luke comes out and eliminates all beliefs that Lucas may be even close to human.

Powers: As a Felizimito his body is human at its core meaning he comes off as very human and “squishy” to other monsters. Physical contact with other monsters gives him short term abilities based on the monster, but with their strengths come more weaknesses. He also does not get the full power of the other monster but instead only gets a significant fraction of their power. Lucas can also sap some abilities from auras around him but they are significantly weaker.

Auras are his focus of power and analyzing them is like a sixth sense to him.
His other half can totally imitate another creature, mirroring their every move until there is a complete transformation into the opposing creature, at this point humanity is lost to him and tactics are lost, he rampages until his opponent is defeated or he is shut down by mirrors or a loved one.

He can also have Cat like features, ears, claws, tail, and golden eyes. This is because if he had a familiar it would be a cat but because he is not human his familiar is part of his self.

So begins...

Lucas was more than a little bit tipsy, this post-apocalyptic city didn't have a need for a drinking age as most monsters couldn't get drunk, but his human body was certainly feeling the effects of the shots he had tried to drink against a sexy vampire. With her good looks and charm it was easy to talk him into just about anything. Stupidly he had forgotten how lovely a vampire's regenerative powers were and was left drunk as a skunk while the beautiful vampire gave him a quick kiss and waved him out the door of the bar to wander the streets. It was kind of her to give him a kiss and get him away from the irresponsible auras of the bar's patrons, he was already feeling better as the vampire's abilities took effect and began processing the alcohol in his blood, but his thirst was growing and he had just been kicked out of the bar.

Disappointed he continued wandering in his drunken state when a poster caught his eye.

"Deadly Nightshade" he said out loud, "what a stupid name for a band." he commented to no one in particular and looked down the street to what appeared to be a blond haired guy and a green haired chick holding poster posting materials. His keen vision caught the poster's message and he realized those two were the ones who put up the signs which meant maybe they had something to do with the revolting name, he didn't know why he hated the name of the band this much but in his state of mind he didn't care.

"Hey, are you the one's hanging up these posters?" he called after the two. "Your band's name sucks!" He yelled obnoxiously.

James spun around and stared at the stranger behind them with fire in his eyes. He looked drunk but it was impossible, only a few species above ground could get drunk and still it was hard for them to. He had learnt that when he watched a drunk werewolf stubble and fall on his ass close to the underground entrance; boy everyone underground was running around in a panic that day.

He felt a small hand on his and looked over to Mary-Lunette. "We should hurry up and get these put up, Gumi.." He saw tears in her eyes but she kept on a brave smile, trying to lighten the mode. "Don't listen to him about the name, the band fits it fine, Gumi. Besides he's drunk." Mary-Lunette nodded before going back to putting up the band's poster. James just stared at the man that had said their band name sucked. He was wary and made sure to keep a careful eye on the other guy while helping Gumi.

"You know you shouldn't insult others like that!" Lucas squawks in return with a perfect imitation of the dark man's voice. The Dangerous calm of the dark figure fell over him and his grimace disappeared, while remaining calm the dangerous side of him was itching to get out and he had recovered enough of his senses to not let Luke out. Instead he ripped the poster off the wall and continued approaching the dark figure.

"Come on, Deadly Nightshade it's such a cliche name. You have to agree with me." He held the poster in the face of the dark figure, Lucas' fangs were now clearly visible from his vampire encounter. He was still too drunk to judge danger, his aura was swirling around bits of the dark man's aura and discovered that much of his aura was well hidden by impressive strength. Yet he remained right in the face of this dangerous character, waving the poster like an idiot.

Mary-Lunette

She'd dropped all the posters of her band and covered her mouth to stop a sob from escaping, sadly she was unable to hide the fact that her shoulders were shaking and she was fighting against tears. She was meant to keep up the impression that she was a witch/faerie so no one would know she's human, but with the creatures before her fighting and Deadly Nightshade basically being insulted, she couldn't help it.

All she wanted at that moment was to be at home, with dirt walls and roof around her, an old funky smelling mattress under her, and the smell of earth around her.

James

He clenched his jaw and curled his hands into fist. James so badly wanted to hit the guy for making Gumi cry. She was the only light and fun most of the humans had down in the Underground City, seeing her being hurt, no matter how small the matter is, infuriated him.

Drawing his attention to the posters his friend had dropped, he picked them all up, rolled them up, placed them under his arm, and brought Mary-Lunette close to him. His eyes locked on the two creatures that were standing a little way away from them, if anything started to happen he was going to get the hell out of here and get back home, dragging Gumi with him if he had to.

James stroked her hair as she shook against him and let out a silent sob. He couldn't help but smile slightly; she was crying over something so small but it meant the world to her. She was Deadly Nightshade, as was he and the other members that have been and the soon to be members. All the songs they sung were apart of them, each beat, which word, everything.

Mary-Lunette

She tried hard to stop crying but the tears wouldn't stop. Slowly she was sinking back into the misery she had fought hard to stay out of for two years. Mary-Lunette's joyful and bouncy side dreaded going back into the dark misery she had been trapped in.

She stood there, shaking hard in Jamie's arms, unable to do anything but cry.

James

His eyes narrowed and he glared at the guy that had just insulted Gumi. "Deadly Nightshade is a band that has a piece of each member in it. Their souls, hearts, wants or needs. We put it into our songs and everything that we do. Insulting the band is insulting us. So watch your mouth."

James continued to stroke Gumi's green hair, but it didn't seem to be working like it normally would and calm her. Every word that left this being's mouth was probably sending her into misery again, which just infuriated James more, and he was sure you could feel the anger crackle around him.

Mary-Lunette

When she heard a body impact with the wall she shrink and huddle closer to Jamie. She never seen these beings fight each other, but just the thought of something small happening scared the crap out of her. All Mary-Lunette had come above ground for was to stick the posters up. She knew of a few beings that enjoyed the music that Deadly Nightshade played. Knowing a fight was about to break out, she wanted to stop it and spoke up weakly, turning her head to see the beings before her and wishing she hadn't as fear ran through her from the sight of them. "Don't fight...Please...Don't fight..."

James

He was shocked when Gumi spoke up and asked them not to fight. The creatures before them probably wouldn't or didn't hear her but still she was trying. He looked down at her and shook his head, telling her to leave it be. Sadly, he knew she wouldn't. He let out a long sigh and rolled his shoulders slightly. He wanted out of here, but if he left with Gumi there was a slight chance that one of the beings would follow and Gumi and him would lead him straight back to the underground city.

Slowly as he watched the two guys he covered Mary-Lunette's eyes, making it impossible for her to see. She didn't react and knew to leave his hand there.


(*smiles* I saw in your character sheet, human/primal spirit. Nice mix ^_^)

Mary-Lunette

She swallowed as John introduced himself. She thought for a minute and felt James hand squeeze hers. She understood that he didn't want her real name out so she gave John her nickname instead. "I-I'm Gumi..." Her voice was a soft whisper and her attention was on the being John had thrown, she was scared he might do something like that to her, after all, they were ment to kill humans that weren't cross breeds now just like always. She hoped he was okay and slowly pointed a finger to Jamie. "T-that's James..." Her words came out shaking as she tried hard not to cry again.

James

He spun Gumi around and pushed her forward, nodding to the shadows. James watched as her small form scrambled into the shadows and brought her knees to her chest while covering her face with her knees. He had taught her well and made sure to stand near the shadows, keeping a careful eye on John and the other being. He didn't want to stay here but something kept him in place.

Gumi

Gumi was thinking as she huddled into a ball. She couldn't believe that all this had happened all because she was hanging poster of the band and had stumbled across a drunk supernatural being. Her body was shaking from the slight cold and in a little fear. Yes, John had said not to fear him, and for a minute she thought he knew she wasn't a witch or faerie but a human, but she knew it wasn't possible at that moment, hopefully..

"I want to go home, James...." Her voice came out a soft mumble and she peeked at the beings fighting. "This is scary...."

The glossy cave walls sparkled with the water's reflection while crystals created a magnificent glow which filled the underground with light. Myra had loved this hideout ever since she was able to explore without supervision. Propping herself on a rock surface, Myra watched her scales glitter with the crystals and wondered how the earth above was doing today. With the constant banging along the cave walls, Myra figured the day was going to be an exciting one.

Splashing into the cooling water, she swam through numerous underwater caves, enjoying the difference between her world and the human's. The human's world was dark and cold, with dirt or ice covering every surface. Myra loved learning about humans and thier strange patterns, but the earth was something she didn't like the feel of. Even her legs, when she acquired them, were freezing in the human's world.

Myra stopped suddenly as she saw murky figures skim the earth's surface. Intrigued, she peeked her head out of the water, and watched a battle unfold.

James

Hearing John know that they weren't supernatural beings set him on edge. He grabbed Gumi's hand and pulled her to her feet. "I have no idea what your talking about, John." James stared into John's eyes, his jaw tight and his hands in fist. "There are no humans. There all dead. There is nothing that could keep them alive." He hated having to lie but knew if he didn't John was probably going to kill them, after all it was one of the laws now; Any human found was to be killed on sight.

Gumi

She grabbed Jamie's hand and uncurled it, running her fingers over his hand. Mary-Lunette didn't want any fighting, and both James and her knew ways to get away from the beings that now inhabited the earth thanks to all the alley's and underground tunnels that connected to the main entrance of the Underground City.

"We should put up the rest of these posters....Would you care to join us, John?" She smiled as brightly as she could, trying to make the best out of this situation. However deep down, she was having a bloody war; Her joy and bouncy self versus her misery. Now Mary-Lunette was glad that she was good at hiding most of her feelings.

Suddenly she remembered the other being and went into a panic. She figured an excuse out fast and pulled James down so she could whisper into his ear without John hearing. "James, I'll meet you back home...Hang all the posters up and be nice!"

She skipped backward, smiling warmly at both of the males before her. "I'm greatly sorry...but I just remembered something important...John if you don't have anything better to do you can help keep James company while I go... It was nice to meet you!!"

She turned around and bolted to where a loud banging sound had come from and hoped that it was the other being. When she got there she tried hard not to throw up or scream. Mary-Lunette knelt down by the being and gently shook him, getting no reaction. Sighing she gently looked over the beings wounds and winced, they didn't look to good. "I didn't get your name...so you better not be dead...."

Myra eyed the specimens, wondering how they found it so easy to walk with those sticks attatched to them. Ducking behind a rock, she watched as they scuttled around doing whatever duties they had. She wished she could join them but her glittering tail kept that fantasy at bay. She would have to wait until later to explore more.

For the time being though, she was going to have some fun. Twirling her finger toward a puddle of water on land, Myra silently flicked water onto the human. It hit him in the back, which made her giggle as she silently hid along the shoreline.

Gumi

She mentally winced at how much pain Lucas looked like he was in. Mary-Lunette was only planning on checking on him and leaving, but knowing how hurt he was and finding out his name was odd. The only place she knew was the Underground City, there they had medical kit and even an really old lady that said she used to be a nurse.

"Do you have anywhere to go? Somewhere we could fix you up?" She didn't fully understand why she said we until she realized she normally had James with her. 'Well looks like this time "we" is just Lucas and me.'

Gumi's hands went to touch Lucas to help him up, or even move, but stop and let her hands drop. She never did know what to do with the injured and Lucas looked really really injured. "I'm sorry if I seem useless...I'm not really good when it comes to things that are injured...." She looked at Lucas with sorry written all over her face. She truly did want to help, it was her fault he was beaten to a pulp in her eyes.

Gumi

She was still worried for Lucas and was sure he was as okay as he said. But then she remembered he was a supernatural being so he probably was okay, if not then to much of an idiot to say something. "Are you sure your fine? Oh, I'm Gumi..." She had forgotten to tell him before her name and now felt rude for not mentioning it.

"You make it seem like you weren't just beaten to a pulp...?" Gumi was curious as to why he was suddenly okay, it was a little odd to her.

James

James frowned and his head went to one side as he looked over the lady before him like he would when he had an idea to build something out of nothing, like he looked at everything he knew. "James... What's your's?" He sat up a little, keeping his legs out in front of him in order not to scare her. He wondered what type of species she was from and he looked over her slowly.

He couldn't make his mind up and curiously asked, "What species are you?"

Original Sin

Ivy

She stared in slight horror as the being walked in. He could see her through the wall and she him. Ivy didn't know what to say or do and there was no way in hell she was going to stand there in shock.

Keeping herself was busy since she was a witch and she started making different potions up to make her trip into the labyrinth a little easier on her.

Gumi

She stared at Lucas's cat ears and felt the need to touch them, however she left her hands at her sides her fingers twitching slightly. "He wasn't my friend, I just met John after he through you away. You had me worried for a minute there and I was scared before that, I don't like people fighting. Lucas, you make it sound like you get beaten up a lot, what do you do wrong?"

James

He tested his name on his tongue and was happy how it sounded. It came out just liked she had pronounced it. James frowned as he tried to come up with an answer to what species she was. "I honestly don't know. You're much more beautiful then any other species I know... Can you give me a clue to what you are?" He smiled slightly and studied Myra

Ivy

Ivy stared at the amulet while the demon's shadow left her room. She wasn't happy about not having privacy and would but up a blocking entrance spell later. She wasn't able to put the amulet on dew to the stones around her neck. She opened the pouch she had taken out before and pulled out some small vials of liquid. Ivy lined the vials up along the dresser that was in the room, along with the amulet. She'd use those later as she practiced. Without meaning to a vase that was in the room went flying and smashed into pieces when it hit the door. "Crap..I didn't mean to do that." She frowned. It was odd that that had happened, maybe she'd gotten stronger in power or was overloaded and needed to let it out.

She went back to the pouch and dug through until she pulled out a simple black/blue strapless dress that clung to her torso before flowing out, and a head band with a black/blue lily on it. It was the clothes she normally wore when using her powers. The hair band kept her hair from wiping in her face when using telekinesis and both pieces of clothing, like most of hers, were fire proof thanks to the spells she had down on them.

She changed into the dress, leaving her panties on but taking her bra off, there was noway she was able to wear one with this dress. She opened the door careful to lift all the broke bits of glass up. Carefully she put it into a neat pile and set it beside the door. "Mockery, I broke the vase in this room! I'm sorry!?" Ivy ducked her head out and called down the hall, knowing Mockery would hear her.

Ivy turned away from the door, not caring that it was open and closed her eyes. She centered herself, taking deep breaths through her nose and letting it escape out her mouth. Finally her eyes flew open and her hair wiped around her before flouting like she was under water. All the furniture raised, a few small things that were thought to be heavy but weren't hit the ceiling, some shattering or breaking but still didn't fall to the ground. Ivy walked to the center of the room, her feet not touching the ground. When she was at the center everything in the room spun around her fast, causing everything to go by in a blur. Without realizing she covered herself in her powerful pink flames. She had no idea what it would look like on the other side, but that didn't bother her at all. She was happy to be in the center, using her powers.

Clear Ice City

Gumi

She swallowed when she saw a slight change in Lucas and she took a tiny step back before nodding and smiling at him. "Yes! So far I've been the main singer of the band. James has his times of singing but mainly plays the lead guitar, drums, or keyboard." Gumi was getting excited at the thought of having someone new to their band.

They had recently lost the other members dew to some unknown reason to her, however James did know but refused to tell her. It hand been the third batch of members they had lost but it had been the only one to have an unknown reason to her. "Every member! We lost the other members earlier this week. I don't know why but James does, he won't tell me though. Anyway, what ever you can play is great! Just prepare yourself because you'll have to sing a few of your own songs too!"

Gumi was practically bouncing around like a puppy. She was super happy for another possible member!!

James

He frowned and picked up the water plant, his mind immediately brought up the name of the plant and information on it and he knew he had read and seen it when the world was right.

'Seaweed...... Seaweed is chock-full of vitamins, minerals, and fiber, and can be tasty. For at least 1,500 years, the Japanese have enrobed a mixture of raw fish, sticky rice, and other ingredients in a seaweed called nori. The delectable result is a sushi roll. Many seaweeds contain anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial agents. Their known medicinal effects have been legion for thousands of years; the ancient Romans used them to treat wounds, burns, and rashes. Anecdotal evidence also suggests that the ancient Egyptians may have used them as a treatment for breast cancer. Certain seaweeds do, in fact, possess powerful cancer-fighting agents that researchers hope will eventually prove effective in the treatment of malignant tumors and leukemia in people. While dietary soy was long credited for the low rate of cancer in Japan, this indicator of robust health is now attributed to dietary seaweed. These versatile marine plants and algae have also contributed to economic growth. Among their many uses in manufacturing, they are effective binding agents (emulsifiers) in such commercial goods as toothpaste and fruit jelly, and popular softeners (emollients) in organic cosmetics and skin-care products.

He tested the world on his tongue at first it sounded funny but after the third try it sound perfect. "You wear..seaweed?" James thought back to when he was younger and used to read stories about the supernatural beings before he knew they were real and what type lived under water or dressed in under water plants such as seaweed. One of his favorite used to be the merpeople-

James thoughts stopped short and he stared at Myra. "You're apart of the merpeople...you're a mermaid, right?"

Gumi

"That's okay! Besides I'm sure you'd do fine, if you don't wish to write your own songs it doesn't matter. Just but your heart into the band and the music you'd play!" Gumi smiled warm and brightly. She liked the idea of others singing, but wouldn't push it if they didn't feel the lyrics in their heart, but felt the music that mixed with it.

She looked down and counted the posters in her hand, pouting when she only counted two. She'd have to send Speckles when Lucas wasn't looking. Thinking of her animal familiar her eyes quickly flicked around until they meet with glittering black orbs the barn owl that was her familiar. 'Go to James We have a new member and I'm taking him to the studio above ground. With that there was a soft flutter of feathers and Speckles was off, doing Mary-Lunette's wish.

Mary-Lunette's eyes landed on Lucas again and she smiled again. "I'll take you to the studio! There you can check out the instruments and if you want you can check out where the band has previously played! I can teach you a few things but James will take care of the rest, because I can explain or teach others well."

She spun on her heels and skipped down the street, making sure to stop in order to hang the last to posters. As they walked Gumi tried making convocation. "We're playing at Dark Blood All 'Round Club in a few days. It's one of the most popular clubs if not the best. We've worked hard to get there, and they should also be televising, or something along those lines, us and our songs. You don't get nervous right? I get nervous. I sit and end up rocking back and forth until we're on stage!" Gumi laughed at that fact. It was funny how she was so bubbly and then stress for ours until on stage!

Ivy

Carefully she let fall to the floor, smiling when nothing broke. Ivy walked around the bits of furniture that were laying everywhere to the door, picking up all the bits of broken furniture as she did. Her fire had calmed down and now where only around her ankles, tickling her slightly.

Deciding to but them in the bin and grab another blood orange, she walked into the kitchen, broken bits and pieces floating behind her. "Sorry, Mockery...I seemed to have broken more things then I intended to, which was none. I hope you accept my apology." A smile spread across her face and the fire at her ankles vanished. "I'm happy to head to the Labyrinth now if you would like to join me?"

Clear Ice City

James

Carefully and slowly he walked closer to Myra. He'd never met a merperson before and tried hard to not go into curious mode. Without a thought he reached out and touched the mermaids tail, it felt like fish's tail and he couldn't help but smile. "Your tail is beautiful, Myra."

He didn't know what to say or what else to do when a question hit him, causing him to frown. "You can't leave the water for to long, right? Have you ever been to the center of the city?" He was saddened at the thought of someone not seeing the city. Sure it had it's down sides as a human but it was still a beautiful place, no one could say other wise about that.

James came up with an idea; If she hadn't been in the city he would bring the city to her. It would be easy to do if he had the right bits and pieces. He noted an owl flying over and his head snapped up. It was Speckles, Gumi's animal familiar, and he was hit with a thought that wasn't his.

"She is at the above ground studio, new band member. Don't worry, Thistle won't let anything happen to her best band and money earners...Finish when ever.. I'll get Gumi underground when it's time." And with that the barn owl left, most likely heading back to it's partner.

His eyes quickly meet up with a pair of silvery aqua cat eyes that were in the shadows. 'Keep contact with Speckles. If either are in trouble tell me. Understood, Beck?' The cat eyes closed slightly in a reply to James's mental command.

With that he grew is attention back to Myra, smiling like nothing was wrong at all.

Gumi

She frowned at Lucas's words before nodding and smiling brightly. "Other then Thistle, who records us and also does everything that's needed to be done backstage, it's just me and James. I'm not that young, I'm only sixteen and James is eighteen so I guess he counts as my bodyguard and guardian. Besides we know what we're doing, we started the band exactly a month after the war so we've been at this for nearly two years."

Mary-Lunette felt a slight shiver crawl up her spine and stumbled slightly before regaining her balance. She didn't know what had caused her to do that but a thought she had suggested it was Lucas, however Gumi couldn't bring her self to believe it. She quickly peeked up at Lucas and noted the multiple reactions to nothing he was having. At that she grew sad, obviously he had done something to her that didn't effect him to well so intern she tried to keep a little more distance between them.

Finally they managed to get to an old looking building. It was three stories tall so it was one of the smaller buildings in the city, however if needed it could hold a lot of people. There was a sign above a rusted metal door. Fireflies hang around the sign, flickering every now and then but making little noise. The sign read 'Butterfly Recordings' in big, neat, baby pink letters.

She put her back to the door, a smile coming across her face. "Thistle acts to and emotionless but she isn't, so don't worry if she glares at you when she sees you. That's if she's even her, she might be quickly dropping something of to the Centaurs but it's awesome in the studio and she lets us wait there for her so, yeah!"

Leaning into the door, it swung open with ease and Gumi skipped in. The studio was bright with soft yellow light and all the lights were on making it look like the sun, that was some how long gone, was up. She walked into the first door on the left that lead to a big room filled with music equipment and instruments, among other things, and sat in a big, bright red, comfy, office chair. "Sorry that she doesn't seem to be here. I'm sure she will be soon though, she has insects everywhere watching us. If you want you can have a go of the instruments you can." Gumi smiled brightly and Lucas, wondering which one he would pick.

Suddenly a thought hit her, and she wondered if Lucas had ever heard of Thistle without realizing. "Hey, Lucas, have you ever heard of 'The Mafia's Daughter'?"

Broken Woods

Thistle

She was walking into Broken Woods when she had an image flash across her vision. Gumi and someone else was inside her studio. A ringing began in her ears and she could hear what they were saying. Obviously the new comer was going to join 'Deadly Nightshade'. He wasn't bad looking either so with him and James they would bring in more female fans. Good for them.

Thistle heard Gumi call the new comer Lucas. 'So, that's your name.' She thought to herself and stopped the connection with the moth that was watching over the other two. If she was going to return before the brighter moon raised then she was going to have to be fast. Her walking turned into running and she thought about changing forms before deciding against it, knowing the Centaurs wouldn't see her then and everything would be bigger.

Suddenly she smacked into something and fell to the woodland floor with a soft thud. She looked up, her face hard and saw a Centaur she'd never seen before. Something in her mind was ringing in warning but she couldn't fight by herself with no weapon or electricity. A thought occurred to her and all the crickets that had been chirping silenced and her eyes glowed a soft maroon.

"I've never seen you before. Who are you?" Thistle didn't make an attempt to get up from the ground, knowing either way she could get the Centaur hurt if he tried anything. She wasn't sure if he was with a group or not, and didn't like the fact of not knowing.

(Merchant, the Centaur Thistle knocked into is either Xion or Kavlar, I would have described them but the picture that is in with Jozan Quellish didn't show up :( Anyway, it's up to you if you have the whole group there or just that Centaur with Jozan or whatever. Thought I might get "The Mafia's Daughter" to say hi so Jozan doesn't get to lonely/bored.)

Lucas sighed at the pink Butterfly sign, for a recording studio for a band called deadly nightshade this place seemed girly. He still didn't know how he felt about all of this but he had spent too much time alone lately and needed a change.

Entering the studio the light was too bright for his liking and his eyes took a while to adjust. The reflective quality of his cat eyes went away and his pupils turned to slits. His golden cat eyes landed on the instruments as Gumi explained Thistle, he wandered over and began plucking at a bass string with a sharpened nail. The sound that resulted was a dull drone with a thwack as it fell. Uninterested he picked up a drumstick and began twirling it like a baton in his hand.

"Never heard of her" He bluntly stated, his mind was elsewhere, still trying to crack why his aura reacted that way. Perhaps Luke had something to do with it, but Lucas wasn't about to attempt to get through to his monster side in front of someone he barely knew, the longer he could keep Luke a secret locked up in his head the better. Unfortunately he didn't remember they had already met him informally.

Gumi

She stared in wonder as Lucas twirled the drumstick in his hand. "Wow...." As she watched she noticed Lucas was in deep thought, which just made her curious. She lent forward and put her elbows on her knees and her chin in her hands. "What are you thinking about? You seem to be in another world..." Gumi spun in the chair and stopped when she saw the guitar Thistle had talked to her about.

It was beautiful and, well, just wow. Slowly she got up and picked the guitar up off the stand. Playing a few soft cords she waited for Lucas's answer. Normally she wasn't noisy but her curiosity was getting the better of her. As she played she noted wide eyes that belonged to her animal spirit owl. She didn't think much of it and just continued to play softly, humming one of her new songs.

James

He smiled, happy to have the chance to bring the city to Myra. "Well, I'll bring the city to you then. It might be a while, but I swear I will."

A thought occurred to him. Myra said when she had legs, so merpeople must be able to go on land for a certain amount of time. Interesting. Without thinking the next words left his lips. "Myra, I'm in a band and we have a concert at a club, it's not in the center of town and it's close to a small running river... Would..you like to come and watch? If you don't want to I understand, or if you think it'll be to crowed I can get you into backstage, only one person stays there while we play.... It would be a great honor..if you came..."

By the time he finished talking, James was blushing a deep shade of red.

Original Sin

Ivy

She quickly summoned her small pouch and made sure all the vials were in it before making it vanish. It was odd, feeling someone hold her hand, but it also felt nice so she didn't do anything about it. "I'm ready to go."

One thing crossed her mind before she cleared it of all thoughts: 'Please... Don't let me die, yet...'

Broken Woods

Thistle

She accept the Centaur's hand, not sure how to react to the group. "It's fine.." Thistle took herself in and noted that she only hand a scrap on the back of her leg, nothing that would kill her and it didn't hurt much. "No, I'm fine..."

She didn't know why but she was set on edge a little, mind you she was always like that with people taller then her, which wasn't hard with her being 4'10. The only one that seemed around her sized was the small framed girl, but even then Thistle thought she was smaller.

"It's my fault, I'm looking for the Centaurs so I can give them needed money. I was in a hurry and didn't look where I was going either." As she talked she studied the group carefully. They looked to be in a hurry. 'I wonder what there up to....'

Thistle planned to send an insect with them when they left. However something about the young man with an eye patched seemed odd and she began to suspect he might be human, but then she dismissed it.

(I haven't figure what to write for Ivy and Thistle hasn't gotten a response so it's only Gumi and James in here)

James

He couldn't help but laugh at Myra's question and then realized she might take it the wrong way. "I'm sorry. I wasn't laughing at you, more like I was laughing at myself. The type of band I'm talking about is a group of species together, singing and playing music for others to listen too. I'm not good with words, so many have changed dew to the war and there isn't a lot of places for humans-" He cut off and stood up swearing to himself.

James had just blown his cover, just endangered the Underground City, he came so close to telling Myra everything. He fell to his knees and covered his face with his hands, he didn't know he was crying silently until he felt hot wet tears roll down his cheeks. Murmuring he looked up at Myra and asked one simple question that any other human would ask; "Knowing I'm a human, are you going to kill me or tell someone so they can instead?" Myra might not know it, but being a human meant death if any other species found out.

"Are you, Myra?"

Gumi

Mary-Lunette stopped humming and frowned at the words. "Lucas, do you have split personalities or something along those lines? My cousin had that before...." Gumi quickly shook her head and smiled playing the notes on the guitar a little louder, swaying with every note and singing softly a song that went around the Underground City like an anthem.

The ones who ignore common sense laugh,
What will they lie about next?
What will be gained?
Can we hang it proud?
Man must go on regardless.
That is my song
It's because you're crying
Its because your lonely
You're right
That's being human
Those tears I cried
In time...
It's so beautiful
It's not a lie
For the real us
Thank you


She hadn't realized she just sang this in front of a different species and went wide eyed when it finally hit her. Gumi stared at Lucas with wide, slightly terrified, eyes and hoped he hadn't picked up that she just admitted to being human in her song, but then again, she did wonder what he would do.

Her animal familiar pushed the small window open a little and waited to see if Gumi needed help. If she did Speckles would fly straight for the other beings eyes while Gumi ran for it. But so far it was just sitting in the open window silently, watching Mary-Lunette clutch at the guitar, her feelings a mixture of terror and curiosity. And the other being, not knowing what was going on with him.

(Note: Song is not mine. It is from the anime 'Angel Beats'. It is sung by the character 'Masami Iwasawa' who was the first singer of the band 'Girls Dead Monster'. That's all I'm saying about her because she's my favorite character and I don't wanna share her *hugs her and put her in a box only I can open, then eats the box*. If I put up any other songs that aren't my own I'll do this: "(Note: ***)" and the song name will be in OCC. That is all, Thank you!)
