Shinto - Kawasari Mimoto - 2010-03-02
I never explained that, did I? But if you noticed, my weapon only talks when my character and it are alone.
EDIT: I might have made minor errors if I had Shinku talking while others are around, but if that's the case, oops. But I hope I didn't..
Shinto - Corn - 2010-03-02
Well, I really did not intend for the Sniper Rifle to be Aurora's mom, and the crazy background story were created on-the-go.
Never intended it, but if Aurora's mother talked out loud, then it'll be kind of weird and awkward, since Aurora doesn't really talk to anyone...one sided conversations ftw?
In the beginning, I kind of did model the weapon talking after Khoi, and I guess Smooth copied us.
By the way Tobias & Smooth WRITE WRITE WRITE WRITE.
Shinto - TøbiasBlack - 2010-03-02
well, i assumed it was something akin to a spirit-binding thing or some such nonsense. like, this weapon is yours and yours alone. only you will know its full potential, and only you will be granted rights to communicate with it. or something like that.
and tonight i doubt ill be able to contribute. want to work on something else tonight instead, so if anyone wants to continue, just write my character out and go with "he must've slept in" or some such.
that and im getting caught up in another manga. damn "surprise me" option.
Shinto - Kawasari Mimoto - 2010-03-03
Hey, no probs. We're all busy these days, shit, I know I am.
If something comes up, I'll let you guys know, usually. Spring Break is next week for me, so I'll have PLEEEEENTY of time to make really decent posts instead of terribly messy ones. I originally thought of the sword-binding idea from:a) Tales of Destiny (Stahn and some of the heroes had talking swords)
b) Fullmetal Alchemist (Alphonse is a soul binded to an armor)
Shinto - Smooth Criminal - 2010-03-03
I liked your idea, but I wanted to look for a way so that not everyone was running around with a weapon that has the dead soul of a loved one sealed to it; so I mixed it up by making mine a little Soul Eater like.
My next post will be brief when the time arises depending on the progress of the story tomorrow.
Shinto - Kawasari Mimoto - 2010-03-03
More-so surprised that you guys basically used my idea and changed it around a bit. I was afraid you guys would call it unoriginal because it's been done before, not only that, but in a lot of games and anime. Haha.

same here. truth be told the scythe is more a conduit than a medium...
though that doesnt truly explain things...
and iuno, i might be able to post something. i forgot the name of the one manga i was reading, and Code Breakers has gotten... meh. still waiting for chapter 10 of Durarara to show up, and after my shower i might start to work on something. though, id just like to ask/clarify something; the story takes place solely in Japan. Will the 4 main islands be addressed?

4 main islands? Doubtable. As far as I have it set, it's basically like '1' single country/island. Split into '2'. Shinto is basically at the very border of both East and West Japan. Imagine ... Hmm, a Pokeball. Know how at the center, there's a small 'spot' that divides both sides? Similar here. Shinto is that very small area. We've yet to explore East and West Japan, so our options are a bit limitless. If we add in other continents or regions, we might make it too confusing, but it's up to you guys. I'm not going to make a hissy-fit over it, as long as you think it works and you intend on referring back to that area again some time during the future or something or the sort.
Have fun.
Shinto - TøbiasBlack - 2010-03-03
i was more thinking that along the lines of the 4 cardinal/guardian animals, the dragon, phoenix, tiger, and tortoise. figured thered be a way to use them and incorporate them, ala Abenobashi style.

Go for it.
Shinto - Kawasari Mimoto - 2010-03-03
Forgot all of the names, but the dragon was Sieryu. Maybe I'll change my plans a bit then, heh. In this case, once we get the isles all set up . . .things might look a bit interesting and the 'world' will seem a bit larger. Because as of now, our characters are in a city, not in a huge area like.. West or East Japan.
Shinto - Kawasari Mimoto - 2010-03-04
Bump :3 Actually, I might make a post tomorrow, contemplating on it, because I have a full day of classes tomorrow 7 am - 10 pm.
Shinto - Smooth Criminal - 2010-03-04
Going to resume posting tomorrow. No more grueling hours of toiling and slaving away in front of a keyboard to do a massive literature project anymore, so it's just about all good. I will be having a field day with chemistry that day, but it won't stop me from posting.

Take your time, no rush, dude. Like I said. Same goes for every other poster in this thread, there's no expectations. Do it when you have free time if you want, not because you feel obliged to post to continue the RP.
Shinto - Smooth Criminal - 2010-03-06
I'm raging so hard right now. I was just about to finish, and then the browser crashed. Rewrote it again now. I have to say, the original post was written way better.
Also, guys- you can go on ahead in the story. Right now, Michael Jackson's ready to make his entrance back into the story; but I'm going to fill in the time that's elapsed so far.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The woman took a leap backwards, and Michael ran towards her. "Bad move, Mr. Man in the Mirror," Speed Demon reprimanded. Speed Demon was right: Michael had ran into just where she wanted him. She had intended to lure Michael into running towards her to lower his guard, and then strike a perfect clean hit with a simple lunge forward. "Check," said the woman as her mouth turned sharp and jagged into a smirk.
As her feet touched down on the ground, it was as if time began to move slowly. Her feet began to sink into the weight of the floor, and then her feet began to push off the ground. Her feet were in the process of kicking off the ground as she extended her arm forward with a crazed look on her face. But to Michael, the events unfolded in slow moving frames. This was going to be a cinch.
The only thing standing between him and landing a hit as well as being able to dodge the attack was her arm. A simple push to the arm did the trick. With that, her attack had been disengaged while she was in the process of trying to strike; leaving her disoriented. Perfect. She wouldn't be able to recover into an offensive stance in time while she was propelled forward as well as granting him a few millisecond window to strike. Exactly what Michael needed to win the battle. Her eyes grew large and grew paralyzed in horror, and with that, Michael knew he was going to win. He let out a big grin, but not his usual grin. His grin was smug and twisted rather than comforting and teethy.
As she came thrusting forward, time seemed to stop with the woman suspended in her leap. Michael calculated where would be the perfect target. The legs? No, she could easily shift her arm position to crash her elbows on him, and the opportunity to strike would be lost as she'd gain stance back shortly after. The arms? A difficult target. The stomach? Possible, but then she might let out a loud sound and blow me cover. Michael would have to think fast. Suddenly, time resumed once more. Michael, thinking on the spur of the moment, extended his palm forward on to her face, and grabbed it tightly. Currents of purple lightning circulated throughout her body as she let out muffled cries of pain. The sparks seemed to almost dance across her body as it began to burn her clothes and skin slightly. The sparks had reached her mechanical hands, and an explosion ensued; with smoke and sparks flying everywhere from them as she began to collapse.
Suddenly, her sleek legs hooked around Michael's center of gravity. A miscalculation on his part. As she fell down, she picked up Michael with her legs and launched him headfirst into the ground at the same time she hit the floor. Michael's face begin to drip blood.
Michael and the woman both picked themselves up. Michael wielded Liberian Girl and wore Speed Demon as a pair of goggles. The woman then tossed her knife to the side. Suddenly, a scythe blade extended out of both of her arms.
"HAHAHAHA- I LIKE YOU. Come to my house and fuck my sister," she teased in a deranged tone. Her eyes then looked at him in a disgusted manner as she stuck her tongue out and licked around her lower lip. ""I'll kill you, cut you up, and cum in your formaldehyde," she said as she darted straight for him with her scythe-turned arms.
Michael began to shoot bullets at her, but it was no use. She would deflect them one by one with her scythe. "Switch to warp ammo," barked Michael in a fierce voice. Michael began to shoot bullets that were now imbued with a blue and purple light surrounding them. "It's no use," taunted the woman. Suddenly, she noticed looked to her arms and noticed that her scythe was being shredded apart from the inside. Michael then leaped forward and headbutted her to knock her down. He then held the trigger towards her face. Checkmate.
Suddenly, the seemingly fearless woman began to tremble. Her eyes shut and she held herself. She began whispering rapidly and gradually grew louder and louder until it was no longer a whisper, but terrified cries pleading for her life. Suddenly, she felt a hand cover her mouth. It seemed so strong, and yet so warm and tender.
"Open your eeeyes, I see, your eyes are open. Wear no disguise for me, come into the open. When it's cold outside, am I here in vain? Hold on to the night, there will be no shame."
Her eyes began to open slowly as she saw the intruder was holding on to her, and as she looked up, she saw his face grinning a wide, teethy grin that seemed loving and comforting. She then embraced Michael. He then looked at the part of her arm visible from her tattered clothes and saw a tattoo.
"I suppose you must be a prototype of some sort, right "PX-1"?"
"How'd you know?"
"A hunch. I could only guess from what I've seen so far in this laboratory and the tattoo on your arm."
"Is that so?"
"Tell me: why do you do what you do?"
"Because the men in white and "Mommy" told me so. I was told to serve as a sentinel of the laboratory two years ago, and that's all I know."
"Who's "Mommy"?"
"Until that one day, the world was entirely pitch black to me. I only heard blurred sounds of voices, bubbles rising, and the buzz of the electricity keeping the machine running; but somehow, I knew one of them was "Mommy". I never did learn who "Mommy" was."
"Have you been outside of this laboratory at all?"
"Yes. I'm proud to say that I'm one of the lucky ones among my brethren as one of the few who gets to see what it's like outside of the laboratory. Most don't leave their pods at all. I was the one who transcended being a dumb, snarling beast to develop a conscience and intelligence; something only few of my brethren have achieved. They gave me another role to play: teacher. All I have to do is teach. I do not know why they chose a prototype laboratory born demon as a teacher, but I suppose it is meant to give a proxy to see what's going on directly above this laboratory and hence why I was given the inside role of teacher. The school is the only thing I know of what lies above the laboratory."
"Let's elope together, babe. I want to be the one to show you the world."
"Huh? You said elope with me?" The woman's face turned red as her mouth seemed to be in shock as if unsure of what she heard.
"That's right. Would you like to live with me and join me? You'd be an excellent help. Someone as beautiful as you are shouldn't live in a place like this." Michael let out a chuckle. "Kidding."
"I really do want to show you what lies above here. I would like to show you the hills, the fresh air, the ocean waters, the beaches, the sakura trees, and all of the scenery that there is to show. The world is a beautiful place, and I want you to see it." This wasn't a lie. Michael loved the world, but man's ugliness is what tainted it; but there is still some beauty to be found in the world.
"I'll come. Do you have a name?"
"Right now, call me the Man in the Mirror. It's not safe for me to reveal my name until we get out of the laboratory."
"I don't have a name. They men in white call me "PX-1" and named me "Ms. Reddie" for my name for when I work in the school upstairs; but neither feels right."
"How about Sawako?"
"That's a gorgeous name. I really like it, I do. Sawako, it is then." Michael extended his hand out. Sawako smiled as she shook it. "You've got a really nice smile, you know that?" said Michael. "N-n-no," stuttered Sawako as she blushed. "I guess she isn't used to being praised," thought Michael.
"We've still got to get to the bottom of this, and I think you want to learn about yourself too, Sawako. Before we escape, we're going to go further in to see what we can learn." said Michael. "Agreed. Let's continue on," said Liberian Girl.
Michael and Sawako walked down the stairs to learn more about the secrets behind herself and the laboratory.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Man, the fight reminds me of the Sherlock Holmes movie at times. Sawako's rank is probably a B- or B, not sure yet. The real reason behind Sawako's hands hasn't been revealed yet either. Stay tuned for the next edition of the Adventures of Michael Jackson the Cyber Slayer!

Interesting... My upcoming post will be a bit different than the usual. -makes it- Brb. I'll let Tobias add his own character whenever he feels like it.
Shinto - Kawasari Mimoto - 2010-03-06
3rd form, unleashed. Yup. Only during flashback. Can't wait to see some of your character's powers, guys. Am I the only one that has revealed the extent of my powers, so far? ._.

“Hi Aurora..”, Mimoto cracks a smile as she stares at Aurora. Aurora crosses her legs and yawns, not saying much. The sound of the blue jays chirping was heard, MImoto looked around and smiles.
“..Do you like nature, or birds or something?”, Aurora asked. “Heh, yeah, I do. I enjoy staring at the sky, I wish I could fly like the birds. I enjoy nature a lot.”, Mimoto slowly approaches the bench, and sits right next to Aurora, to her left.
“Guess we wait for Tobias.” Aurora turned her face towards Mimoto. “…Guess so.”, Mimoto sighed.
“So many things goes on at once. I wonder.. why did Shinku put that seal on me..”, Mimoto looked at the palm of her right hand. “Think.. think.. why.. I can’t seem to remember much!”, Mimoto closed her eyes and sighed.
Aurora glanced over , and taps Mimoto on her left shoulder. “You alright? You look troubled.”
“Oh, haha! Ahaha! I’m fine! Nothing at all! Ahahah!”, Mimoto crossed her arms and attempts to laugh.
“… Alright. Whatever you say.”, Aurora strokes her rifle.
Mimoto raises her head up at the sky, and had a flash-back.
--
(Mimoto narrating at this point..)
I remembered after Shinku’s death, I felt alone. I couldn’t even weild the ShinkuTsuki. Shinku couldn’t even speak until a week or so after that, because his powers were completely drained, so he didn’t have the energy to even talk. I remembered being homeless, wandering the streets with a sheath on my back, and Shinku inside of it. I was wearing a dirty blue dress, and at the time, I was only 9 years old. What do you expect, right? The orphanage burned down, but I don’t remember much about that. I somehow managed to get into school like every other kid out there, but I had no home.
I remember walking around the town after school every day after 4 PM, with a worn out back-pack on my back. Kids would always make fun of me because I was dirty looking. They never knew I was homeless. Shinku eventually spoke after a couple weeks or so, and he told me how much he missed talking to me. I remember walking by a rich couple’s house every day, and always wanted to live inside that huge house. They always looked out of their windows, taunting me and laughing at me. They always pestered me by throwing banana peels or garbage at my head as I walk by. I cried, every afternoon. I envied how people had a home, or a brother they could touch. My brother’s soul was embedded within a sword. Nobody knew how tough it was. Nobody. The rich couple always called me names as I walked by their house. One day.. I snapped.
I was walking out of school, it was an extremely hot sunny afternoon. The sky was of a dark crimson color, I remembered being up atop of a hill. I watched as everybody and their friends played with each other after school. I sat right next to the tree, crying. Shinku would always talk with me in an attempt to comfort me, but I was young then. I didn’t understand much about the world. My heart was filled with rage and discontent. I envied a lot of things, and loathed others. Anyways, I started trying to get back up on my feet, I slowly walked past the couple’s house. I stopped in front of the gate to their house, and turned to look at their 2nd-floor’s windows. I noticed they were looking at me, but this time, I noticed both of them had horns on their head. I now realized they were a type of demon. The male demon went out of the house, he was wearing a business-suit on, and he was behind his fence. He treated me like I’m some sort of wild animal. In his right hand was a riped red apple, he knew I was hungry, and started mocking me.
“Hey, kid. Want this apple?”, he laughed. His dark red face brightened up, and his loud raucous voice was irritating.
“…Yes.”, I rubbed my eyes, trying not to cry. I was extremely hungry, and hadn’t eaten for days.
He began biting off large chunks of the apple in front of my eyes, watching as I continue crying more. He threw the core of the apple at my head, and slowly walked away. I stood there, and aimed my face at the ground. I tried not to cry. I couldn’t take it anymore. People treated me like shit. Shinku recently died a couple weeks before all of this happened, the orphanage had burnt to the ground, I have no parents, and I have no friends. My life was filled with misery and hatred. All of that rage had finally surfaced at this point.
( "Faraway" - SSH plays in the background )
“What the-“, the demon turned around. At this time, I had Shinku strapped to my back, the rope that I tied his sheath onto me started burning wildly. His sheath as well as the ShinkuStuki fell off my back. My body was covered in dark flames, but unlike when I fought that demon at the High School.. this was entirely different. I couldn’t control my own powers, and my rage had taken over. My clothes started to light on fire, and my body was covered in dark flames. My hair also turned dark black, and was like a water-stream of continuous wildfire. My pupils turned dark crimson, and the cloak of dark flames also bestowed upon me, wings. Large wings made out of flames.
[ ..Oh no.. Stop it, Mimoto!!! ]
“You goddamn people. Always taunting me every day.. watching from your fuc king windows. You think it’s so goddamn funny? DO YOU? Huh? I’m asking you right now.”, Mimoto had a wild menacing look on her face. She grins madly, with tears coming out of her eyes.
“!!!”, the red demon started stepping backwards in fear, he was speechless. He knew this was his death.
But the transformation wasn’t finished. It worsened. My feet became talons, and I grew long feathery-tails. My hands turned into claws, the earth beneath my burnt to a complete crisp. The flowers that the demons had planted in their yard lit on fire, everything burning around me.
“I’ll kill you. Every. Last. One. Of. You!!!!!”, I shrieked. I flew at the demon and grabbed him with my left claw, and slowly crushing his skull as I tighten my grip. I watched as blood spews from his head, my face turned emotionless. It was an impassive look that showed how much I no longer cared, about anything. The female blue demon upstairs started panicking, and screamed. I then look back at the red demon, and crush his head to a pulp. Blood had stained all over the door, I threw his corpse down at the ground, and laughed.
In front of me was a brown door made out of wood, with a gold knob in front of it. With one powerful roar, the door blew away and shattered to pieces. I slowly walked in the house, burning the floor and everything my body had touched. Everything was in blaze, I slowly walked upstairs, and into a small room. I saw a TV in front of me, and to the right was a very nice pink bed. I watched as the female blue demon started curling up into a ball, with a blanket in front of her. She looked terrified. She didn’t even attempt at trying to fight back.
“Don’t worry. I won’t kill you.”, I laughed. She starts to cry, and as I got closer, I aimed my index fingers at her eyes. I smiled, and said “…Fuck you.”, and pierced her eyes with my claw. Her body incinerated, and out of rage, I burned down almost everything in that house.
I flew out of there, and back to the front of the house. I almost passed-out, but then my the flames that had covered my body had dissipated. I was completely naked, and I needed to hide. I grabbed Shinku and ran to the small shed that was behind the huge mansion. I just sat in there, for days, and not coming out. I didn’t remembered much with the events leading up to that murder of the couple, but I was so angry. I completely went berserk, I looked at my blood-stained hands, and started crying. I saw in the cabin next to a haystack, and cried. Years passes by, and I try not to think about it. I get clothes by stealing them from other people’s backyards, which was hung up onto a rope to be dried out. I would continue to steal clothes, until I could afford some for myself, after killing demons during missions.
Over the years, I continue growing stronger. People knew of my name and power, which was why my reputation skyrocketed. But nobody.. except Shinku and me, knew of what happened that very day.
--
“Hey… Hey.. Mimoto?”, Aurora poked Mimoto’s right arm. “… AH! What?”, Mimoto woke up and yelled at Aurora.
“You were dreaming or something. Your eyes were wide open, but you were muttering some words about something.. I couldn’t tell exactly, but something about .. ‘kill you’?”, Aurora raised her eyebrow.
“…. Forget about it. Hmm, I wonder when Tobias will show up?”, Mimoto tries to steer the conversation to a different direction.
----
T'is her last. But ShinkuTsuki might change some time in the future too, I don't plan on using her demon-form in combat too much. Luls. Probably going to find a way to 'alter' that some how as the RP progresses.
Shinto - TøbiasBlack - 2010-03-06
...finally beat that round... oh well, next up earthborn-war hero. (speaking of which: nice mention Smooth.)
sorry, i had intended for this to be longer, but ive an idea for my character... an allusion and a forethought to explaining some aspect to both his powers and the meaning behind Black and White...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The alarms were blaring, but still, nothing. Loudly they roared through the apartment room. Tobias was still stuck in another night terror. Another haunting memory of his past resurfacing in his dreams. He shook, sweat beading down his forehead, his neck, all down his back and arms. His whole body shivered and rocked, shaking violently in his bed. He tossed and turned, flipping his covers over and onto the floor.
Suddenly his eyes flared open, and he was paralyzed in his bed. He couldn't help but stare at the ceiling, frozen where he laid. His eyes were wide and moving from side to side violently. Suddenly, he let out a gasp of air and fell backwards into his bed. Groggily he started panting, gasping for air. The sound of his alarm going off was starting to overbear his mind as it tried desperately to grasp onto the dream that just passed. He reached over to the clock and pressed down on the snooze button. He laid back down in bed and closed his eyes once more, then suddenly looked over at the alarm clock, noticing the time on it.
"OH SHIT," he yelled out, "I'M LATE!" He lept out of bed and ran over to his dresser, rummaging through the shelves looking for clothes to wear.
Down at the bus station, Mimoto paced back and forth, looking down nervously at the clocktower besides her. Aurora had taken a seat on the bench, her rifle laid beside her on one side, her bags on the other. She looked ahead at the street and looked at the people walking down the road. She gave them a cold glance, then looked over at Mimoto, still walking back and forth. "You know it's almost 6, right?" she asked in a sarcastic tone. Mimoto looked over at her and glared.
"I know! Tobias knows that we were supposed to meet here at 6, maybe he's just running late."
"That, or he isn't coming."
"Why wouldn't he come, he already agreed to?"
Aurora looked back at her and scoffed. "It's like I thought; you recruited a pathetic powerless kid for this mission, and it just so happens that this loser is also a lying ass. Trust me, next time I see him, his ass is mine. I don't appreciate being lied to..." She looked over at the bench and smiled darkly. Mimoto looked back at the street and saw the bus starting to pull near. She quickly looked back at the clocktower and saw that the bus was five minutes early. Mimoto walked over to the bench and grabbed her bag and her rifle, and started to walk to the bus. "You coming or what girl? You're the one with the money for this trip."
Mimoto looked at her and pouted, then lowered her head and sighed. She walked over to the bench and picked up her bags and walked onto the bus. She gave the driver her tickets and walked down the tiny walkway. Aside from Aurora and two other people, the bus was empty. She took a seat by the window, and stared out of it, looking back onto the bench. Before she boarded the bus, she left Tobias' ticket on the bench, held down by a rock. Slowly the bus rose up and started to drive off.
Tobias, now fully dressed, looked back at the clock and saw that it was now 6:05. No matter what excuse he tried to use, nothing would explain why he was so late. He ran over to the closet and pulled out his guitar bag. Laying it down on the bed, he pulled back on the back zipper, revealing the hidden area in the bag where he hid his staff. He walked over to the mirror and stared into his eyes. Inside the mirror he could see Black and White standing behind him.
"Black," he said into his reflection, "I need your help."
"Why should I help you boy? You got yourself into this mess plenty well without me," he replied. Tobias looked into the mirror and gave him a cold glare. Black waved his arm and walked around to the window. "Fine fine, I'll help you out with this boy. You know our deal though for me agreeing to this, right?"
"Yes, I am aware." He turned around and closed his eyes, holding them shut tightly. Slowly he could feel a tight grip start to grab at his heart, and he started to feel a chill. It felt as if his body was being enveloped by some force. He opened his eyes and let out a quick shout of pain. Right after, his left eye started to become surrounded by tiny black tentacles, encroaching upon his iris. Slowly his whole body was being covered by a black film emerging from a hole underneath his feet. He looked up at the ceiling and closed his eyes again. "Take me to the bus stop Shinto-Seto!" He shouted at the top of his lungs, and immediately his entire body was pulled down through the hole.
At the bus stop, a few feet behind where the bench was, a small black ring started to form, and slowly expanded outward until it was 4 feet in diameter. Suddenly, Tobias' head rose out from the hole, and in quick procession the rest of his body started to emerge. It was only a few seconds before his entire body was through, and the dark film receeded into the ground and faded away underneath his shadow. Tobias looked around, his face pale, and saw the bus stop empty. He walked over to the bench and sat down, putting his head into his hands and sighing.
"Tobias," White said inside of his head, "Mimoto and Aurora have already boarded the bus and have gone on ahead. They are making their way towards the Ikanawa hotel. It will take them most of the morning to get there, and they should arive by 1:26 in the afternoon." Tobias looked up at ahead and across the street. He saw an older man walking, holding onto a large bad. Tobias' eye started to shine as the iris changed to a pure black hue. He stood up and let out a short laugh.
"Well then," he started, "it looks like that leaves me with plenty of time to prepare..." He walked out towards the edge of the sidewalk, the tips of his feet hanging off of the curb. "If that girl was right yesterday," he picked up the ticket laying next to him and looked at the destination and let out a laugh, "then I will need all the time I can get to get ready for this next kill." He looked up into the air, still laughing to himself. Slowly the dark ring re-emerged underneath his feet. He grabbed hold onto the staff and looked over at the old man. The old man looked over at him and saw panic in his eyes. The old man stared as Tobias' body was ensnared by the dark tendrils emerging from the ground, diving into his chest, arms, back, legs, and face. Slowly the darkness encroached around him and covered his body completely, and he was pulled once again into the dark void. The old man ran screaming down the road, as the ticket fell to the ground. Slowly, from where Tobias' hands were holding onto it from, the paper faded from its yellowish hue to a dull grey and quickly eroded away, crumbling to the ground and eventually completely turning to ash.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BTW:
With that last paragraph, Black is in control of Tobias' body. normally its just their voces that overtake his own, i.e. they use his voice to talk to him, so to others around him it just seems like he is talking to himself. this last time, however, his body is completely overtaken.
and i noticed i forgot to add in tobias taking his baggage with him... just assume he went back to his apartment to get it, and for the time being, just forget he exists. trust me, i've something planned...

What an interesting turn of events. Tobias being late. Really? Lol. Hmmm.. I'm too tired to do another, I have work tomorrow, so I'm hoping CoB can do a long post tomorrow about what happens at the hotel. Of course, Mimoto has all of the money on her. So she has to share it with all 3 of us. But since she and Aurora are women, and Tobias is a man.. ROFL. Sharing the same room? :3 Hmm~, we'll see.
