Greeds remark to lust only made her rise her lips to a sly grin, the girl had some confidence that was for sure, even her effort to march away dramatically had her grinning and trying to supress a laughter of amusement. The girl had fallen for her taunts after all, she was probably going to try her best to show her that she wasn't a useless newborn now.
Like the emotion of envy, the emotion of greed sometimes had a person desiring everything for themselves, even power and respect, it was to be expected after being given the classifcation of the sin greed that the girl would get angry. Lust could only admire her work as she moved to lean back on the wall.
"steel my eyes, lips and skin? Thats a new one I must say" she spoke softly to no-one in particular watching greed leave them to slam close her bedroom's door. "But I suppose I can take that as a compliment" she looked to the other others with a satisfied smile "Don't you agree?"

Rosalie then caught Jude smiling at her strangely her instant reaction was to stiffen and glare at him in caution, she felt no need to address him, even though she had never really spoken to the man before today she once had her demons watch him and knew that he had the potention to be her mortal enemy out of all the sins simply due to his damn power. Too bad he could never heal her blood though, a single drop rushing with intense amounts of poison she wondered how she even lived with it. She could even coat her lips with it if she desired killing them with a single kiss, perfect for who she was really, a woman of spoilt blood.

Pushing herself of the wall again rubbing the back of her neck, it seemed to have a kink after her boring journey to the temple, only that human had kept her from growing insane out of bordem, wrath just had to kill them though. How... tragic... now she had no-one to run around for her or give her back massages, maybe she should have been more annoyed when he killed him.

"Im going to my room" she declared a matter of fact her heels making a sound as she began to move away before suddenly stopping to turn and give all those that remained in the hallway a tasteful yet desirable gesture with her eyes and body movement "If any of you want something, feel free to come and find me" she laughed the meaning to that gesture obvious returning to continue down the hall and around the corner to her room away from the others. She needed to rest before her kink got anyworse, being immortal didn't mean you didn't suffer from such trival things after all, just disease and age.

(didn't have time to spell check this so sorry if there are some!)

Devlin jumped from his bed and landed on the floor when he heard her voice. Lust, yes freaking Lust. He wasn't entranced by her voice though but he did note something, she was sounding slightly pained from a krik in the neck or something. He decided to do something about it just as a friend gesture. Wait what was he thinking!? If he sneaked in her room through the hallways someone like Envy or Prudence would catch him. He covered his face in his palm for even thinking that. Then another thought occurred to him.

"Balconies." he thought. "Most of the rooms have balconies on them. If Lust has one on hers, maybe I'll fly over and then see if she's sleeping and then I'll just QUICKLY get rid of her krick or whatever it is and then get the heck out and not even her would be the wiser! If she ever gets suspicious I'll just give an excuse like it was the bed that fixed it. Or something like that. Gosh I hope I don't get caught." but he had to take a risk. Besides as Courage he liked to take risks. It's in the Courage Handbook.

Thinking quickly Devlin changed from his armor to his Pajama like clothing, the armor would've been noisy. He then looked in his closet to find anything useful. He found small winged slippers and he wondered if they could work. "Did the Last courage also worked as the sandman or something?" he thought as he put them on and he slowly realized he was floating with them. Well one obstacle down, now to see if Lust had a balcony and if she was sleeping. He flew out of the balcony and searched for her Corner room. he discovered a small window roughly good enough for someone his wiry self could slink through if it was open. He silently slunk through the window after he opened it as quietly as he could. He could tell that he was now in the point of no return but he didn't care. Devlin was risking it.

He discovered her resting silently with her back turned to him. He took a deep breath knowing this was going to be the most stupidest thing he ever did if any of the other virtues asked. Maybe he'll add this encounter in his journal just to spite himself. But if things blow south, it would be bye bye to not only his dignity, but almost probably if he didn't escape, his chastity. He shook his head from the thought and silently tried to massage the kink from her neck without waking Lust up. "Devlin you idiot." was all he can think of at the moment. The other thing was "STUPID! STUPID! STUPID!"

Jaime Somorra- Charity

Jaime went to her room as everyone started to disperse. She flopped down on her bed and thought about everything that had happened. It was all happening so fast. Out of everything that was going through her head Greed was by far the biggest thing on her mind. Curious about her powers she wondered why it hadn't effected the girl. Had she done something wrong? Was it because of the interruption? Is it because she didn't fully love Rain, or can she just not use her powers on sins? Questions just kept coming to mind, and what about her other powers? Did she have to be in full form to use either of them?

Just as you can give you can also destroy. The phrase rang in her head. Destroy? Why would she ever want to destroy something when she could give it to someone who needed it? She wished that she could destroy hunger and war and disease, but those things were all intangible. Something inside of Jaime wished that her powers would work that way, but she had a feeling they didn't. She felt the urge to figure out just what she could do. She looked around her room and saw nothing that was of little value and she really didn't want to detroy something that someone had put effort to create.

Jaime snuck down to the kitchen and took out a single chip and placed it on the table. Something inside of her told her that she had to touch it for anything to happen. She placed her finger on top of the chip and willed it to dissolve. Within the space of time it took her to blink the chip had been there and then simple not. There was no big explosion, no leftover pieces, it was just gone. Jaime took a step back out of suprise. She hadn't expected that it would actually work. Her power scared her. She didn't want to use it ever again, but she had the feeling that she would have to.

Having solved one questions Jaime felt the need to resolve other problems. She marched over to Greed's room and knocked on the door. "Could we talk? I'm sorry about earlier." It took all of her strength to get the words out. Sometimes being the bigger person was more work than even the virtue of charity wanted to do.

::Greed heard the knocked from her window, not caring for the voice she heard after the knock she didn't move to open the door:: "Come in, Charity" ::She didn't think she would ever call this girl by her name, why would she they weren't friends. She kept her back to her as she heard the door open and close. She had the slightest temptation to touch her cheek again, it was an unnerving feeling, Rain just wanted it and her to go away. Rain shook her head as she continued to look out on the valley view, at night it was so beautiful, the stars, the moon, everything was so well placed like a perfectly painted picture she just wanted it to stay like this forever. Rain sighed and finally turned and acknowledged Charity::

"Don't apologize, if you don't like me that is you problem. I don't like you either. Don't think that just because we have to work together.. "

::She didn't finish her sentence because when she began to face charity something in her stopped. She hoped off the window seal and walked closer to her, when they were face to face she starred the girl right in her eyes inching closer and closer until they were nose to nose, stopping for just a second her frustration grew, it was clear on her face and then quickly turned to sheer anger, almost jumping back she pointed an accusing finger at the girl, and placed her other hand on her cheek::

"what the FUCK did you do to me?"

Rosalie entered her room with a faint smile; it really wasn't so bad considering she was in a temple on a god’s forsaken mountain in the middle of nowhere.
Moving towards the double bed with purple satin sheets she stretched her arms up high tucking her hands behind her long black curly hair as she did lifting it up for a moment before letting in fall in a relaxed manor. Kicking off her black high heels just high enough to provide a feminine look without causing pain, she sighed realising that she had only brought a few pairs of clothes since that’s all her human could carry on the way here. Dropping her sleek black dress over her shoulders she stood out of it leaving it crumpled on the floor as she found her bag pulling out a simple night dress in a beige colour.

Shrugging it on she pulled back the purple sheets off her bed and settled down shutting off the light by clapping her hands before not taking long to allow rest to overtake her eyes. She was nearly exhausted after trekking up the mountain for three days, as she was sure the others probably were as well.
As she lightly slept she felt a cool wind on her skin from the open window but paid it no bother as her mind shut off.

Suddenly she felt the touch of hands on her back; it was strange she thought it was a part of her dream until within a split second she realised someone was actually touching her. Instantly her rather tense senses due to the recent attacks from demons and angels made her flip around within moments her eyes opening straight away, it happened so fast it was almost hard to see.

As she moved Rosalie made the blood in her veins boil from will alone, one of her skills as she had trained it for years was being able to transform into her other stronger form within two seconds, a skill not many of the other sins knew of or even the virtues as normally it would take at least three minutes for the mutations of their bodies to process.
However Rosalie didn't look that much different in her demon form, she had no wings to sprout, no colour changes and no weird scales, the only thing that altered were the cells in her body, she became stronger her poison more lethal as it wriggled all over her skin instead of staying only in her blood so that simply touching her would temporally paralyze a person. Her eyes became more daring and her hands capable of malforming her nails to extreme lengths and sharper than diamonds so that she could pierce them through anything even at long distances.
This transformation allowed her to change into her other form faster than any of the others, it gave a quick defence if not immediate strength and the devils that had once served her feared it.

Turning to face the intruder her transformation taking effect as she did her hand shot out in the direction of where she assumed their neck to be, in the darkness it was hard to see but all she needed to do was cut the intruder with her diamond nails and her poison would run through them inevitable. However as her hand reached them the touch of her skin alone would cause them pain as the poison that covered it swept onto them numbing their skin making them become paralysed for a short while after around five minutes contact with her.
It was almost like her power was like a black widows, she had the beauty to lure a target in, then stop their movement so she could cut them and directly put her poison into their blood stream killing them anyway she desired as it was easy for her to change the type poisons in her blood.

She stopped before cutting them however as she pinned the target down with her hand, they wouldn't be affect by her paralysis yet, four more minutes and they would be though. Quickly she straddled the target hoping to keep them in place on the bed still unable to see who they were. "What do you want vermin? Did you really think you had a chance against me?" she laughed sarcastically fully assuming the intruder was either an angel or a devil. "Its sweet you thought so but coming into my room at night unwelcomed is really a stupid thing to do. If you wanted me that badly maybe I'll kiss you?" she grinned slyly but her voice laced with anger before shifting to sarcasm "Oh, but then that would kill you, there’s time for that later though isn't there?" she threatened them cruelly. In her demon form as her skin was coated in poison so were her lips, if she kissed anyone the poison on them would be given directly into her victim’s body. A poison that killed three seconds after contact, it was deadly.

Tightening her hand she leaned close to them so her breath could be felt against their own skin her long hair hanging down like curtains. "Tell me what your plans are and maybe I'll let you live" her voice completely changed, she would never use it around the sins or virtues, it was dark, full of hate, anger, pain and much more mostly from her feelings and despite to being betrayed by her own devils.

(btw when a sin/virtue transforms they are able to be sensed by others :3)

"Wait what the heck is she doi- WHOOP!" Devlin thought as he got Pinned down by Lust. "Ow what the heck Lust?"He said in a whispered voice, "Jeez some gesture that was, I try to help massage that crick out of yer neck and ye pin me down in full power form? I have a bad feeling I am about to be temporarily paralyzed in the next few minutes. Ye really needed to know my plans it was simply to try and help you out! I'm sorry if I startled ye. It's me Courage. you did say you wanted to see how far my courage would go. Well I just took a fat risk coming here and risking my neck just so that way you wouldn't deal with a crick in the neck while you slept. sometimes I get cricks too you know, comes with carrying a big sword on my back all the time. But now you caught me in the act. Do with me what you will then I can feel the poison about to paralyze me." Devlin sighed as he started to not feel his body that much.

"I guess this was a silly move after all. One that DOESN'T end well I might add." Devlin commented as he sighed after chuckling slightly. "Again I apologize for coming in here but.. I didn't want anyone to think I was doing it because I was being tempted."

Rosalie froze when she heard a voice she recognised "What the!?" she said confused removing her hand in a heartbeat as Devlin continued speaking. Clapping her hands the automated light in the room flicked on confirming her suspicions that it was Devlin under her as she pinned him, rather well she noticed aswell, Rosalie wasn't normally the type to get involved with direct combat, she sucked at it infact. She was used to long distance with her diamond nails that could stretch for meters or simply poisoning someone within the second so she didn't have to fight.

Its was probably expected of her to start and seduce the man since he had dared to come into her room, as he had tried to prove apparantly. However his 'attack' in her mind from moments ago had only triggered emotions she in no way wanted to recall from her past, her human past.
With a glare she lifted her leg and swung it over him hopping off the bed releasing him, not that he would get far before falling over if her moved from the bed with the paraysis running through him now from her skin. She wished at this moment she had brought a robe at the least as she stood in her beige nightdress her eyes looking at him with a pained expression if not angry however her smile contradicted that as she put on a cocky sly attitude as usual for her.

"Oh but by even coming here you were tempted" she moved and slid her hand across his cheek "or else you would have felt no need to prove your courage to me if you were not so easily to manipulate through the sheer thought of impressing me alone" she mocked a smile her eyes still the same as before. "If you really weren't tempted by me so much you wouldn't have taken notice of the kink in my neck would you? such a simple mind" she cooed at him patronising "but I do thank you for coming, now I can amuse myself seeing you helpless to move!" she laughed but it was a little fake as she began to head towards the door leaving him them there as her smile dropped and her voice was low "Im not a virtue Devlin" she said his name with anger "do not enter my room without permission, you won't be treated kindly otherwise" it was a warning if nothing else as she opened her rooms door slamming it shut behind her.

Walking down the hall she spotted Jude and turned her head to him fast anger still covering her expression as practically spat at him "Go to my room theres something for you" and continued in a huffed stride towards the livingroom. Prudence could probably heal Courage's paralysis but she really didn't care at the moment.
Finding the sofa she slumped down on it tucking her head in her hands not even caring for sloths figure as she sat across from her.

Memories were squrming their way to her head, things she didn't want to remember, her heart struck a faster rhytmn as the secret fear she felt from the memories alone made her uneasy above anything as they caused her temper to thrive more than she could control. She hated those memories, the night of when she died.

"Well that ended almost the way I predicted." Devlin thought, "But if the winged slippers can get me to my room really fast before Medic arrives he'll think Lust lost her marbles for a second! HA! That'll prove to her I'm not tempted by her in the slightest. Wow that was almost evil of me. Okay lets see if I can still get going."

Then He realized the Slippers were still on him alright as he started to float from the bed. "okay lets see if you can follow the command.... FLY me back to my room... Fast." the slippers actually started to move him as he flew through the room. "hehe, even Virtues can try to cheat their way out of a nasty situation that'll lead to an embarrassing oof!" Devlin suddenly cried out as he hit the door. "Shoot I forgot that was closed. A quick cover up, Um, I heard a noise in Lust's room saw it was an Angel, we fought, I got accidentally touched by Lust's Poison skin and now I can't move, Oh and the angel disintegrated after being poisoned....... I'm screwed...... VERY screwed. Jeez and I was doing her a favor too... Well I guess Mr. Nice guy doesn't work for the sins.......not too much anyway. Well it was a stupid idea anyway." he looked around. "This is going to be INCREDIBLY awkward."

Jude Sylvari - (Prudence)

Jude awoke with a start. He'd been asleep for only a little while but something had caught his senses. He could feel a transformation by someone. Ugh...goodbye beauty rest. Rotating his arms and his head to get the blood flowing, he stepped out of his room and tried to sense where the transformation ocurred when suddenly Lust's room door was flung open and she emerged wearing nothing but a beige nightdress and with a very angry expression pointed Jude to her room before slamming the door shut. Confused, Jude cautiously approached her door and opened it peering inside. There lay Courage slumped on the floor not moving.

"sigh...What are we going to do with you, Courage? What happened?" Jude spoke as he rubbed his temple. Courage's expression was a mix of annoyance and embarrassment as he explained what he was doing in Lust's room and why he couldn't move. As Courage spoke, Jude knelt down and could feel the poison in Courage's body which had clearly paralyzed him. Hmm...perhaps a blessing in disguise? Jude thought to himself. "Hold on a second Courage I've gotta go get something." Jude walked back to his room, in no rush, hoping Courage would have ample time to consider his actions and the results. Jude went into his room and grabbed a couple vials he had. As a healer, he had often come across many plagues and diseases and so Jude brought a small chemistry set with vials to run tests, just in case. He went back to Lust's room and again knelt down by Courage. Putting his hand on Courage's shoulder, he began the healing process. Then as quickly as it happened, the process was complete. To a bystander watching, it looked like Jude had pulled a Dark liquid right out of Courage's body and was controlling it as it landed in the vial he had brought along.

"You're not gonna make this an easy stay are you?" Jude said to Courage, as the latter regained control of his body. "Be more careful, she could have done a lot worse." Jude placed the vial in his pocket and walked out of the room. It's starting to get early, maybe I'll go make some breakfast. Jude left the vial in his room and walked towards the kitchen noticing Lust squirming on the couch, sadly evicted from her own room. Jude grabbed a blanket from a closet and gently laid it on her before walking off to the kitchen looking for whatever Gluttony had missed.

Morning was approaching and Jude figured he'd get started making some food for the group. Making food for so many Sins and Virtues was gonna take awhile especially given Gluttony's appetite. Jude laughed thinking how much this reminded him of his human life. The days he used to cook those children food and...Jude quickly shook away the idea. Those weren't memories he wanted to recall now.

"oof!" Devlin said as he felt the problem go away. "Well at least I regained my confidence a bit by doing such a silly thing as that. and yes I think I'll knock before entering Medic. Thanks. Well time for me to get some shuteye before breakfast then, Greed and Charity won't be able to infiltrate heaven on their own will they?" he said with a small smile. "Medic, thanks for reminding me of what I am..." He sighed as he walked back to his room but he called out to Rosalie, "You can have your room back, Im out. Sorry for not knocking before entering." he said as he shut his door quietly before sighing. "Jeez. This is NOT going to be an easy mission to heaven." Devlin said to himself as he walked to change into his armor and get the plenty of rest he needed through a short meditation process.

"I bet when we somehow get information they catch wind of us and I end up getting hurt in some fashion. That's uncomfortable." He thought as he sat and meditated silently. This is going to end up crazy.

Brant; Wrath

"What is with the noise from over here--" Brant stopped his words short as he saw who all was in what seemed to be Lust's room. "And here I thought Courage wouldn't fall for Lust's tricks. I guess you can't take everything as it seems." It was clear that Wrath had gotten the wrong idea, seemingly thinking that Courage was looking for 'company' from Lust. "I think I'll let you two keep with your fun, just try to keep it down next time. I heard you two from my room." With a chuckle Brant went off to the back of the Temple and found a spot near a pond filled with some fish to take a seat.

Brant took a fish out and let it struggle to survive on land, putting it back in the water just before it was too late. Then he repeated the process with the same fish, giving it a cruel torture simply for his amusement. It didn't seem like he would stop anytime soon.

"Note to self." Devlin said as he meditated. "Beat the crap out of Wrath after all this is done." Jeez All he did was just go INTO the room and got mistaken for the enemy and got paralyzed. No temptation or anything like that. He decided to completely obliterate Wrath during the training session that was to be sure, and give him a good surprise when he shows his own full power form. "Oh heck yeah." If anyone offended Courage, then be prepared for a smackdown of giant proportions.

He got up and decided to get himself a bite to eat as he wandered out of his room in his armor and into the kitchen passing by Jude. "Hey medic." He said. "So when's the BIG plan that has been set up supposed to happen?"

Rosalie was focused in controlling the rage and mix of fear of her emotions just as a sudden warmth enveloped her bare shoulders in the form of a blanket she had not expected. Looking up to see who gave her it he piped intrest soon died when she saw Jude only be replaced with a frustrated frown as she reluctantly gabbed the blanket and tucked it around herself not wanting to face the cold on her skin.
"Don't think this means I won't hate you, Prudence" she said his name with purposed spite glaring at his back as he sauntered towards the kicthen. It was only then that she realised she was still radiating her full power form, with a sigh she released the exhalted energy returning her less that lustful self but still amazingly beautiful none the less.

She had had enough of these silly human emotions.

Standing Rosalie glared at the pair in the kitchen again as Devlin joined Jude raising her head in an unipressed mannor. Stalking towards the patio she pushed open the sheer glass revelaing the first slight rays of sunlight as dawn began to brew upon the temple. A sight that could be considered beautiful if one cared.
Her eyes soon caught the image of wrath as he amused himself wife the life of a mere fish, "Is that all you can really think of to do?" she raised an eyebrow the blanket still pulled around her before rolling her eyes "How obviously predictable of you Brant" the cruelty of he fish didn't really bother her but she thought it a little childish.

Leaning on the door frame Rose looked up into the sky, something did not feel quite right, she wasn't sure what it was but it had been the reason she had been drawn to look outside. The sun rising it suddenly pierced her gaze burning her eyes for a moment as she stared at it directly, shieldig them with her hand she gently moved it away when sure it was safe to look again, however what she saw was nothing to be celebrated.
Within a flash she dropped the blanket and shifted into her fall power form sending bursts of energy to the others to wake them as the familiar beat of golden wings flourished in great numbers towards thm highlighted by the sun. "Angels" she mutter with utter distain her blood boiling with anger for their daring to attack the sins, if not the virtues themselves.

Rain had let the conversation effect her more then she had anticipated, but she didn't it let it show as she laid on her bed. She hadn't been to sleep, she prayed that it wouldn't effect her training session in the morning. Rain starred at the ceiling, she didn't know why but something was itching at her, almost like something was making the hairs on her arms and neck to full attention; she blamed it on Charity again that maybe the touch she had gave her was really doing something to her. She stood up and stretched it out, leaning down and touching her toes and standing up stretching to the ceiling. The sun was coming she couldn't believe she had really sat up all night. She walked over to the window hoping to catch a glimpse of the sun rising.

"At least there is a good view.... hn"

Rain squinted her eyes, the sun rising looked almost like a mirage to her, almost like a wave of light, the she lifted her hand to shield her eyes as the light got brighter and soon over-took the sun, and that's when she felt it again Lust had transformed, looked towards Lusts' balcony as if she was standing there, her power was so strong Rain felt surrounded by it. Rain looked back towards the sunset and finally saw it, the light that she saw above the sunset was a line of angel coming right for them. Rain grabbed the emblem on her bracelet and let her transformation begin.

Rain flapped her wings a few times to make sure they were ready, with no time for a warm up she needed to make sure everything was working fine. Running out of the room she pushed her door open with a force so strong they almost unhinged. Already seeing Lust, she knew that this was no joke. Twirling her staff in her hand she looked over to lust near the door.

"Now i will show you, that i can carry my own. Try and keep up if you can.. i would hate for them to take you before i do"

Devlin notices Lust and Greed getting ready for a fight and realizes they were about to get invaded. He took his sword off his back and silently walked up next to them preparing for a fight.

"Come on you traitorous backstabbers." He muttered directly at the angels, "If it's more you want it's more you'll get" he then leapt onto the patio railing on the part that kept people from falling off it and then gave a strong yell in an attempt to scatter them and then he leaped at them sword swinging wildly as he started to fight them. The Fight against the angels though didn't last long as an angel kicked him in the stomach sending him flying back into the temple and landing on his back, being sent skidding across the floor.

Devlin felt dizzy from that ordeal and couldn't get up. "Aw cripes." He said to himself "Im stunned."

This was indeed an awkward position for him.

Brant; Wrath/ Marama; Glutton

"But this is just so much fun, after all the life on this thing is in my hands which I could easily end with a little squeeze." Brant said before he heard Lust say one thing before he felt the anger raise from her. Upon the mention of that word Wrath stood up and followed Lust's gaze to where the attack was coming from. "Finally some fun," Wrath said as he quickly let his full power form come out without a care for what the others would do. "Bring it on you lousy wastes of space," Brant said as he could feel the anger from those in the temple, even if they were trying to mask it. In addition he could feel some anger from a few of the attacking angels. "This is great I can feel the anger," Wrath said as his power could be more easily noticed the more anger that he sensed.

Marama heard a commotion from the back of the temple and decided to leave his room and check what was going on. When he saw Courage get knocked to the ground you could tell that anger was building up in him. "You hurt the nice guy that gave me food. No one hurts the nice people that give me food." With that Marama went and stood a few feet in front of Devlin and looked to the angles. "Nice guy, I'll keep you safe until you can fight once more." Marama seemed like a different person than before, not that he could eat any less but in a way that seemed like a lion protecting his family. With his words spoken Glutton's full form took hits presence, sitting in front of Devlin facing the incoming angels. As he awaited the attack Glutton's full power form's tentacles came from under him and prepared to attack those in front of his gaze. There were no tentacles behind Marama as to avoid accidentally grabbing Courage, the one that the sin was determined to protect. It wasn't long before an angel tried to attack Marama and Devlin, but to no avail as several tentacles ensnared the being. The angel was gripped at its feet, hands, neck, the base of its wings, and three-fourths to the ends of the wings. With the grip tightening the tentacles soon ripped the apart and placed the pieces in the mouth at Glutton's stomach, leaving the blood of the angel on the ground and splattered on Marama's front. There was obvious distaste for eating what he did but that didn't stop Marama from doing what he was determined to do.

Wrath could feels the radiant fury from Glutton as he protected Courage from the angels. Even though Brant didn't like that he was protecting someone that fell in battle he did like how he ripped apart the angel and devoured the being. "I guess it's my turn now," Brant said to himself as he used his wings to get some air and collide with one of the angels, send his sharp claw into the arm it was holding a weapon with. Wrath's eyes seemed to be lost in his blood-lust now, which in this case was a good thing. Brant was knocked off by the angel as it went for a powerful jab infused with strong light magic. However, thanks to the angel attacking Brant being angered by his attack Wrath had just enough power from feeding on the anger of those around him that he was able to avoid the attack. "Your blinded by me," Wrath joking said referring to the sin that he stood for. As he avoided the strike that would have highly weakened him Brant struck at the base of the angel's wings which made it difficult to fly now. "I will have fun tearing you to pieces!" Brant howled out to his opponents as he stabbed his hand into the angel's leg then proceeded to rip into the flesh of the being with his sharp claws and teeth. Sure Wrath avoided many of the lethal points but quickly the angel was becoming a bloody mess that was hardly able to be recognized. By this display alone it was clear that the key to fighting Brant was to eliminate all your anger, even if it is trying to hide itself. By the time Brant was done there was blood of his victim all over his body, and even though there wasn't a single lethal blow the angel suffered a very painful death as it bled out and was attacked even after it was clear it would die.

Even by the way they fought it was clear that Wrath and Glutton stayed true to their sin. Brant killing his foe without mercy and never letting up on his ruthless attacks. Glutton staying true by ingesting the corpse leaving nothing but some blood behind.

Jaime Somorra-Charity

"what the FUCK did you do to me?"

Jaime looked at Greed, at the intenseness and anger in her eyes. Jaime couldn't take it. She wanted to break down in tears. She felt such disdain at all of Rain's being but for some reason she felt a connection with the girl that hadn't been there before. Without replying she turned and walked out, running to her room as she slammed the door behind her. She collapsed on the floor and breathed deeply, refusing to shed any tears for a simple heated conversation.

She sat on the floor all night, curled up with her knees pulled in to her chest and her head rested on top of them. As the light of dawn began to cascade through her window and fill her room she experienced a strange feeling. Something in her told her that Lust had transformed. How did she know that? Everything was still so new, but one thing was obvious, something was wrong. Antoher strange feeling came and this time it felt as if Greed had transformed. What was going on?

Jaime stepped out into the hallway to see Lust standing by the door with fury in her eyes. Greed threw her door open in front of Jaime and looked at the attractive woman before speaking. "Now i will show you, that i can carry my own. Try and keep up if you can.. i would hate for them to take you before i do" Did Greed ever consider being kind? Charity was about to speak up when Courage stepped into the main room and drew his sword. He exited the temple, leaving Jaime's sight. Moments later he was thrown back into the room and slid across the floor with a thud.

Charity flinched as the large man was thrown backwards. Instinctively she tranformed for the second time as a virtue. She flicked her daggers out of their resting place at her hip with unexpected skill. She ran towards the door as Glutton protected Courage. It was then that she realized that they were under attack by angels. She saw Wrath run into battle and strike one down. The killing had been vicious and Jaime felt such sadness over a lost life, even if they were attacking her. An angel was flying straight towards Lust by the door when Jaime pushed the woman behind her. She was sure to get yelled at for it but she had not thought about it at the time. The rebelling creature of God grabbed Charity and pinned her against the wall.

She was three feet off of the ground and about two yards from were Courage's immobile body and Glutton were. "Wait! Wait!" screamed Jaime. Her dagger was still in her hand and she could easily flick her wrist to stab the angel, but she couldn't bring herself to do what Wrath had done. She softened her gaze and looked the gorgeous creature in the eyes, "I love you." The stunned angel loosened it's grip on Jaime's shoulders and she fell to the floor with a thud. "My lady! My apologies. Can I help you somehow?" Desperation was in his voice. "Stop them and please, stay safe and protect my friends with me." she choked out. Obediently the angel turned to face his former allies and began to fly in for an attack.

"That's great and all Glutton, But stay where you are I'm about to JUMP!" Devlin yelled out as he leaped and struck an angel with his blade. He then continued to battle it out with the Angels until something happened to his other teammates would he break his concentration on fighting them off. He hoped that didn't happen however as he continued to slice and knock the angels back.

"This is one heck of a fight going on eh?!" Devlin yelled out to Lust as he sliced one of the angels.

Ryoko saw courage charge out sword afront him and get thrown in, right after she had seen Lust get shoved back by Charity which earned a smirk to cross her lips. She thought she might have to give Charity some props for charging in the way she did but that was until she got caught, when she saw her get picked up and yanked into the air, started to charge off after them in case charity needed back up; instead she witnessed something that almost made her want to gawk and point, she had told the angel she had loved them.. just like she had said to her previously in the living room, she watched the angel bend to her will and turn on its comrades.

O_O" (the face was too epic to describe) She was trying to CONTROL HER?! Rain turned to face the uncoming angels as she charged with now blind anger at them. Taking to the air when she left from the door frame she charged staff to sword with one of the angels. Putting a power to use that she practiced on the way up the moutain she tapped into her "triangle vision" they triangles seemingly tatted on her eyes lit, her eyes bled over black allowing her to see everything in hyper speed, making everything she witness play to her as if it was slow motion allowing her to read the opponents moves before they made them. With that she dodged and countered the first attack piercing the angel through the heart with the bed of the staff

"YEAH! 1 Greed 0 Lust"

After raising her staff with a roar an angel had jab her in the left cheek almost knocking her out of the sky, turning to face her attacker she charged at him seeing the impending jab coming her way she stopped short letting him fall closer to her grabbing his arm she drug him forward letting him fall on the sharp tip of them emblem on her staff, and then tossing him to fall to the ground

"2 Greed 0 Lust"

Jude Sylvari - (Prudence)

Jude smiled as he busied himself making a number of dishes that seemed like it could feed a small village. Everything from eggs, turkey/pork bacon, sausage, hash browns, crepes, pancakes, tofu, muffins, and a fruit salad. Being able to control light, Jude had learned to use it to heat things much more quicker than any stove or oven could. It was a meal designed to fill anyone no matter what their taste preferences were. Lucky for Jude and the rest of the group, there was a storage room hidden away under the kitchen that gluttony had luckily missed. Jude was ecstatic at finding it and made sure to keep the door hidden with some furniture to prevent Gluttony from accidentally stumbling upon it. As Jude set the table he felt Lust change form again. Courage I swear to god if your pissing Lust off again I won't... Jude began to mutter to himself when he also felt Greed transform and a racket come from the balcony.

The group had all run down the hallway and onto the balcony pointing to the sun in the sky. Jude didn't understand what the commotion was about and stepped out of the kitchen and into the living room to get a better view from the outside. It seemed like the sun was rising but light rays were moving in a very odd manner. Angels...they've found us. Jude thought looking sternly into the sky. Courage yelled in their direction and lept off the railing but was quickly slammed back into the ground with Gluttony protecting him. The others each began individually battling an angel and Jude knew he had to help. He ran up to Courage quickly healing him, with Courage immediately rising up and striking down an angel.

Amazingly everyone was coordinating in such a flawless manner. They were protecting one another and putting fear into their enemies. Wrath was showing great skill (and glee) dismembering his victims and painting the ground with their blood. Courage had already cut down his first angel clearly not happy with being slammed into the ground and ready to show his fury. Gluttony was more terrifying than Jude had anticipated, growing tentacles that (like Wrath) had ripped an angel, literally, piece by piece and even tasting the..."fruits" of his labors. Even Greed and Charity who had little experience with their powers were doing majestically. Greed had transformed into her demonic form and had already beaten down two angels. Her eagerness to upstage Lust was evident in her boasts at the current score discrepancy between Greed and Lust. Charity who seemed like an out of place innocent girl had pushed Lust out of the way of an incoming attack and was met face to face with her attacker. Her daggers visible and available to strike down her attacker, but instead Jude saw something that made him beam. Charity had taken control of the angel and was using him as a soldier to help the group.

It was amazing! Everything was looking great as only a few angels remained. It was then Jude saw something that made his expression change from a smirk to a blank look. In the distance he saw a second group flying far behind the first group. It seemed like they could be attacking in waves, or that these could be groups of scouts used to find us. In any case the group had their hands full and hadn't noticed the angels in the distance. It was time for Jude to show them what he was made of. Jude ran back to his room and grabbed his bow and the vial of poison he had stored from Courage's encounter earlier. He returned to the balcony and manipulated the light around him to create physical light arrows, dipping them in the deadly toxin Lust had unknowingly provided him. Aiming in the distance he began to let his arrows fly...

Devlin continued to attack the angels whilst trying to keep his eyes out for anything else that might threaten the others. He watched Prudence let loose arrows onto the angels as he kept running through the midst of the battle, slicing through any angel that came his way. He leaped across the battle to battle an angel in midair, kicking and slashing as he went, but then he was kicked by the angel and he crashed once again onto the ground.

The angel then did the most dirtiest of tricks, it blasted a chunk of the floor and it fell onto Devlin in rubble trapping him and forcing him to watch the battle until he could get it off. "Okay NOT good." He said to himself.

Jude Sylvari - (Prudence)

Jude was panting and sweating as he looked at the others. Several hours had passed as the group battled countless angels. During the course of the battle, Jude had bounced between attacking angels in the distance and healing the others and he was starting to feel drained from the whole experience. The others were now fighting with various cuts, bruises, and torn clothing. Lust was the only one who had suffered a severe injury: a blow to the head which had knocked her out cold. As Jude approached her limp body to heal her, a thought hit Jude: Greed, Charity, Wrath, Courage, Lust, Gluttony, and himself were fighting the onslaught of angels, but where were the others? Surely they must have heard the loud noises of battle? Had they really been so selfish to leave them battling the angels alone? Looking back at the others, and seeing that they were making easy work of the last few angels, Jude decided to confront the others that remained in their rooms.

Stomping towards the hallway, Jude began to grow furious Where the hell were the others?! We could have really used some help back... Jude's thoughts were cut short as he stopped at the opening of the hallway to the rooms. An icy shiver ran down his spine as he saw streaks of blood painted across the walls and broken furniture scattered across the floor. Something bad happened... clearly the room was a tale of an intense battle, one the others and himself were oblivious to. All of the rooms' doors were closed except for the room at the end of the hallway...Hope's room. The door was broken on its hinge and swung back and forth, creaking that sounded like nails on a chalkboard. It felt almost like a sign sent from the universe that the only door open was Hope's. Jude walked slowly towards the room with each step causing his heart to beat faster and faster. Every creak under his feet sounded like a monster groaning and the hallway seemed to stretch for miles.

Reaching the opening to the room, Jude opened the door gingerly with his hand slowly peering inside. What he saw inside would reawaken the memories and emotions he had tried so hard to contain from his human life. Blood...so much blood... Indeed it was a...disturbing sight. The bodies of the missing Sins and Virtues lay at the center of the room with the walls being painted in a crimson red and the once white carpet soaked in the blood of his new housemates. With it an eerie silence, one that would drive the average person mad...the kind of silence that was more terrifying than any scream. It was such a grizzly experience, and the worst part about it was that the killer stood right above the bodies motionless.

Jude's heart froze as he realized who had just paid the temple a visit. Barely above a whisper, he uttered "Death..."

Rain and landed to the ground in a thud. she felt yet another strain on her back as she struggled to get up. These angels had been coming in waves like clock work since the first attack. She was proud of how well she kept up for the few dozen or so waves, but as they kept kill and spilling energy new angels kept coming, it was beginning to take a toll. She had already lost count of the amount of angel blood she had on her, now she just wanted to maintain standing, Jude had been a great help when he stopped what could have been a fatal injury and healed it, she didn't want to use all of his healing energy so she got it healed enough to make it minor and then she was off again. Even though Charity was turning angels at first and they were having help, those angels were dying and more and more angels were smartening up and attacking her from long range.

"God DAMNIT! what do they keep coming at up for?!"

Rain finally getting to her feet released her wings, one of the wings on the right side had a cut and pierced all the way through it, she wouldn't be able to do much flying now, it was all going to be hand to hand and close quarters. Breathing shallow she wanted to contain what energy she had left, when she caught one of these angels she would beat the answers of it if she had too. As she said that she could feel herself being stabbed from behind, the pierced didn't hurt at first, it felt like cold steel and then her body went cold, he moved the dagger deeper into her back, and said

"don't move you filthy sin"

Rain looked from left to right, her body feeling paralyzed, she saw everyone wrapped up in their own battles to notice her. Trying not to panic she tried to have a one track mind, getting answers.

"What do you want from us?"

your lives

why?

following orders

whose orders?!

He shifted the dagger in her to the left causing waves of pain that made her knees want to buckle, he obviously didn't like being asked a lot of questions. But she would continue until there was a reason to stop.

whose orders are you following?

you will see, he is as eager to meet with you as you are to meet with him. i can arrange that

With that he took the blade from her back threw her over his shoulder as he took to the air. The pain in her back still leaving her partial paralyzed she couldn't struggle to get free. She thought about screaming for help but then she would never find out who was trying to kill them. She needed to find answer before the rest of them, then they would respect her and not treat her like such a baby. Everyone would like her after that and if she died in the process then she would die being the only one in the group knowing what she knew it was a win win situation for her. As she was now above the palace she thought about leaving clues, her pierced wing hung over the angels shoulder dropping the dagger like feathers off one by one as they flew she would leave a trail for them to follow if they didn't all die

Jaime Somorra- Charity

Jaime confessed her love to dozens of angels. One after another they all began to die. They assisted her loyally and all did there best to fight for her protection. Her first angel was still alive, but his wounds were bad. Jaime herself hadn't killed a single angel. Eventually they stopped coming near her, she posed no threat and they feared that they too would have their mind's compelled. They began to throw things at her, but a faithful servant would just jump in it's way.

After the hours of battle Jaime was ready to collapse. Her love and action in battle was not causing such exhaustion. A dull emptiness could be seen in her eyes. Another Angel that loved her was struck down. The attacker ended it swiftly with a stab to the chest. He spit on his kill with shame of betrayl that her angel had no control over. Love shouldn't be forced. Were her gifts really gifts at all, or was it a curse? She scremed in pain and fell to the ground as yet another life was lost. She had found that as her servants died a cut appeared on her abdomen under her shirt. With love comes loss and only pain can follow.

Jaime already had sixteen cuts up and down her sides going in all directions. Prudence had come to heal her, but she pushed him away claiming that nothing was wrong with her. Luckily, as far as he could see, nothing was. He didn't need to waste his strength on her. There was little blood loss and the cuts were shallow. She saw the healer walk into the hallway, leaving the battle behind him. At first Jaime felt abandoned, but she then realized that he was getting help. Where was everyone?

Jaime had stepped in front Lust's limp body and protected the sin. Suddenly she felt something strange inside. It was different from everytime her angels died. It was if her intuition was telling her that a loved on was in danger. It was then that Jaime saw the feathers that floated down to rest on the floor in front of her. Greed's feather. "NO!" Charity was conflicted of feelings of love and hate. She had to figure out her feelings.

Greed couldn't be gone. She just couldn't. Confusion ate up Jaime. She lost herself. It was if someone else was controlling her body. She ran up to the closest enemy angel and grabbed it's arm as it swung to stab her. "You are not worthy enough to serve me or Him." The words were not Jaime's. What was going on? What was she doing? The angel disappeared in front of her. She had destroyed it. They would never exist again. The remaining waves of angels saw they're comrade dissolve and fear crept into their eyes. Jaime fell to her knees and stared out the open doorway as angels began to turn and fly away. Had they gotten what they came for or were they retreating? That was Jaime's final thought before blackness consumed her and she past out, head striking the floor with a bump.

Devlin saw Jaime fall, suddenly the angels she turned on the other angels turned back to their old selves and prepared to kill her. He angrily yelled in anger as he threw the big piece of rubble at the Angels and nearly distracting them, and possibly squishing one like a bug. He then got up and drew his dagger in one hand and sword in the other and he charged at the angels slicing and tearing through them, wanting them dead so they can be at peace, be left alone and have only themselves to contend with. He gave a large yell at the rest of the angels in front of him scattering them and scaring them off.

He panted as he slowly collapsed on his knees in a small moment and then crawled towards Jamie. "Charity? Charity ANSWER ME. Can you hear me?! MEDIC! MEDIC WHERE ARE YOU?!" he spoke softly but he then slowly started to yell. He then turned to Rosalie and realized she was out too. "Lust? Lust can you hear me?!" He yelled in hopes of her hearing and waking up. He slowly got on his feet in horror as he thought the two unconscious people were possibly dead, his anger boiling and his rage could not be taken out on save only the ground.

Devlin started to slice at the ground angrily and with a fury that almost caused his blade to glow red hot, but he then suddenly collapsed on the ground quivering, getting flashbacks of his Mortal life as a soldier and then dying a horrible and painful death that he went through. He felt the scars on his arms burning in his mind, telling him he failed his comrades. Hot tears poured down his face. "Am I alone? No... No it can't be! NO! I DON'T WANT TO BE ALONE! I don't want to be alone."

He covered his face and for the first time since his death, Devlin wept. His heart was stressed and near close to breaking at the thought of being alone by himself, the last Virtue or sin alive for that time until new candidates were chosen, He couldn't take the stress or the pain.

"I don't want to be alone..."
