Interesting Iscribble RP

Eclipse: *Walks with Mikenno. It looks like a nice enough city*

Mikenno: ...Do you think the others will be here?

Eclipse: Who knows. This world looks massive. *walks up to the giant entrance into the city*

Guard: HALT! State your business, outsiders! D:<

Eclipse: We just got here. We have no idea what's going on and need a place to stay.

Guard: That's what that LAST group said! DB<

Eclipse: Last group?

Mikenno: I think that may have answered my question. *a bit more loudly* I can assure you, we mean no harm.

Guard: That's what they said too... DB<

Eclipse: Oh please. We're fuzzy talking animals and we're HALF your height. We're harmless, REALLY.

Guard: Mrf... >:/ FINE. *steps aside*

Mikenno: Thank you. *walks inside with Eclipse, waiting until they were out of earshot before speaking again* ...Okay, so the others were here, and something happened.

Eclipse: I doubt it was their faults... Something's wrong with this place.

Mikenno: *nods* ...Reminds me of some of those soldiers from earlier today...

Eclipse: Tread carefully.

Mikenno: Same to you. *walks along quietly, trying to figure out exactly what was wrong* ...

Eclipse: *He looks around the place but inside the city walls, it seems almost as if there is no war at all. No one is scared or unhappy. It's just... cheery*

Mikenno: ...No soldiers, no fear... do they even know there's a war going on?

Eclipse: ... I'm afraid of asking the locals. People might suspect something.

Mikenno: Well, it's already a bit obvious... Either the entire city is putting on an act, or they really have no clue.

Eclipse: ... Let's find a hotel or something. We can focus on figuring out what's going on tomorrow.

Mikenno: *nods. they walk around for a while, trying to find a place to stay, but they are turned away from most places due to their lack of money* ...snrr...

Eclipse: ... We can sleep on the streets, then? XC

Man: Are you two looking for a place to stay?

Mikenno: ? *looks over at the man--he didn't seem to be ill-intentioned...* Yes, we are.

up

Eclipse: Well, let's avoid them. We've waded our way through enough shoot already.

Mikenno: Agreed. *flaps a bit harder to regain altitude, leaving the fight behind* So, where should we go, then?

Eclipse: That city. It looks... clean. And shiny.

Mikenno: Allllrighty. Shiny city, here we come. *flies towards it at a leisurely pace, still a bit tired from that day's fight* ...Why do you think they threw us in here?

Eclipse: No idea, and really I don't like it. Something's up. Something BAD.

Mikenno: Hopefully we won't find out the hard way...

Eclipse: If we find out the hard way, then we just have to deal with it.

Mikenno: Mmph...

Eclipse: ... You know what? I really miss Twilight and Luminos and Acid and Vera and Skye and... well, everyone. Even Lightning. Even though he was being a bit of a prick last time we saw each other. Even NEWMAN, of all Mobians. Well, he's not a... you know what I mean.

Mikenno: ...I miss them too. *sighs* There's nothing I wouldn't do to go back home...

Eclipse: Well don't say THAT or the creators will make sure you regret it! D:

Mikenno: I'll reword that, then. I really REALLY just want to go home. How does that sound?

Eclipse: Better. We're getting close to the city.

Mikenno: *nods* I'm going to circle around for a bit, just in case they don't like dragons flying over their buildings... *turns a bit off to the side, skirting the edge of the city. he has to squint to look at the sparkling town, the light being almost blinding* ...

Eclipse: Or you can just land and turn into your mobian form. Seems more reasonable.

Mikenno: ... Good plan. Haven't used that in a while. *veers away from the city and lands a little bit away, letting Eclipse climb off him before turning into his mobian form* There we go. Onward?

Eclipse: And to greater pastures, hopefully, yes.

Mikenno: Well said. *walks towards the city*

up

Eclipse: This place is massive, but I'm seeing nothing but trees...

Mikenno: Yeah, this isn't good... They'll be impossible to find if this whole WORLD looks like this...

Eclipse: Oh! Oh hey wait! Mikenno, there's a city behind us!

Mikenno: ?? *banks left, and turns in a slow circle* Oh. Well, let's check there first.

Eclipse: Go go go! I like civilization, don't you? D8

Mikenno: Civilization sounds pretty good to me right about now. *flies faster, eager to get to the city*

*the sounds of gore and screaming are heard below*

Eclipse: ... Wait... shoot, what's going on down there? D;>

Mikenno: *wrinkles his nose at the smell of blood* A lot of people fighting, that's what... Ugh, I thought we'd be done with that... do you want to take a look, or...?

Eclipse: ... I don't know. DO we want to take a look? We don't know which side's which... <:/

Mikenno: Well, when I said "look," I literally just meant LOOK. I'm kind of sick of the fighting right now.

Eclipse: ... Well... Alright. But we're gonna duck out of sight at soon as we see what's up, okay? >__>;

Mikenno: Understood. *flies a bit lower, trying to get a better look*

Eclipse: *hangs on, ready to take action if necessary. Anyone who attacks them will be quickly killed*

Mikenno: *flies right over the battle. it was easy to tell which side was which, as one had much heavier armor and weaponry than the others, but he couldn't tell who the enemy was--both sides seemed to be out for the others' blood*

Eclipse: Jeez... If there's a war going on, what the hell are they fighting over?

Mikenno: I'm not so sure... their intentions are all jumbled together, but what I can tell for sure is that both sides LOATHE each other.

up

*meanwhile, somewhere else*

Mikenno: *is suddenly thrust into the forest, pulled out of the blank space without warning* !??

Eclipse: *The same happens to him, and he ends up crashing to the ground near Mikenno* ... OW...

Mikenno: *gets back upon his feet with a groan* Jeez... Was that NECESSARY...? *glances around, trying to figure out where exactly they are--though he already had an idea*

Eclipse: ... This is NOT the Blank Space, obviously. Mikenno, where are we? Do you know?

Mikenno: I'm not exactly sure, this place doesn't seem familiar at ALL... Maybe we've ended up where those who escaped did?

Eclipse: That'd be a nice thought. I like the word "escape", don't you?

Mikenno: *sighs* Yeah... pity it isn't QUITE an escape...

Eclipse: Mnh... Do you think we'll be able to find the others?

Mikenno: If we look hard enough... and if they aren't in this forest...

Eclipse: Well, let's look then, I guess. :/

Mikenno: *nods, and starts walking, looking up and wondering if it would be safe to fly* ...

Eclipse: What if this entire world is a big forest? That would suck.

Mikenno: *snorts* It really would... ugh... Would you like to try a bird's eye view?

Eclipse: Sure. You want me to fly or are you willing to let me ride you?

Mikenno: I don't mind giving you a lift. *kneels down so Eclipse can climb on his back*

Eclipse: Thank you, friend. *he climbs onto Mikenno*

Mikenno: Anytime. *spreads his wings and takes off, managing to avoid ripping his wings on the branches. he flies off over the forest, a bit surprised by how far the trees went*

up

Harry: Yeah well... Yeah. Can we go yet?

Lucifer: Maybe.

Blood Puppet: NO!

Harry: *sighs*

Altodd: *licks Key's face*

Mia: Mmh... >__<;;

Key: *nuzzles Altodd, going back to running her claws through his fur*

Altodd: *nuzzles back*

Blood Puppet: *quickly finishes up, then puts on his mask and runs back over to the group*

*they walk*

Mia: *has put a slight bit of distance between herself and Blood Puppet* >__<;; ...

Key: *walks along with Altodd in her arms*

Blood Puppet: *Doesn't understand why Mia is avoiding him now* <:(

Altodd: *likes being held by Key*

Mia: *is still quite grossed out*

Key: *rather enjoys carrying Altodd around like a big teddy bear. the fact that he didn't mind it either was a plus*

Blood Puppet: *tries moving closer to Mia* <:(

Altodd: *is happy*

Harry: *pulls Todd along*

Mia: *scoots away slightly*

Key: *busies herself with paying attention to Altodd, so she doesn't have to look at Todd... or what's left of him...*

Blood Puppet: *sighs*

Altodd: *nuzzles Key*

Harry: *pulls Todd along*

Altodd: *sniffs the air when the wave of fresh blood finally hits his nose* !

Blood Puppet: *eats the arm behind some trees*

Harry: *slowly grows his arm back* Ghnnhgh...

Key: U-Um... so... so is the demekarr doing that...?

Claire: *answers quickly, still looking incredibly uncomfortable* Yes.

Mia: *is quite creeped out by this whole thing* D;

Harry: ... Hnhh... Why'sit helping me...? D;>

Lucifer: It doesn't really have a choice. It automatically heals you.

Altodd: *Squirms in Key's grip again*

Blood Puppet: *eats the arm* ...

Key: *trying to hold Altodd still* Well. Nice to know there's at least ONE perk...

Claire: XC

Mia: >______________>;;;

Harry: ... Too bad it stings...

Altodd: Maahh!

Blood Puppet: *eats*

Key: better than nothing-- *nuzzles Altodd* Shhh...

Mia: >_____________>;;;;

Claire: DX

Altodd: Mmmaauuh!

Harry: ... S'almost done... Fffgh...

Blood Puppet: *Eats*

Key: *pets him* Shhhhh...!

Claire: Mnnngh...

Mia: <_________________________<;;

Altodd: *Whimpers* Hrr... Hrrr... Hrr...

Harry: *fully heals* Agh...

Blood Puppet: *eats*

Key: *nuzzles him again* Shhh...

Claire: *sighs a bit in relief as the crawling, stinging sensation fades*

Mia: <____________________________<;;

Harry: You alright, Mia?

Altodd: *turns in Key's grip, clutching her shoulders* Hrr... Hrrr...

Blood Puppet: *eats*

Mia: Mnnnghh... >______>;;

Key: What? Whatisit? <:P

Claire: ... :I

Harry: Yes or no.

Altodd: *whines. He's feeling quite hungry, himself*

Blood Puppet: *eats*

Mia: Nnnnno... >_____<;;;

Key: I don't have any food for you, Altodd... maybe when we stop for the night, okay?

Harry: Why?

Lucifer: Maybe because you lopped your own arm off.

Altodd: Huuu...

Mia: *points at Lucifer* Nailed it right in the head, sir. That, and the fact that it GREW BACK. D8

Key: Yeah... we've seen weirder, believe it or not... D; *pets Altodd*

up

Altodd: *Doesn't struggle in Key's grip* Maaah...!

Harry: *Doesn't enjoy being the one that has to drag Todd around*

Blood Puppet: *Is feeling happy, but is still starving*

Key: Hey there. :) *nuzzles him*

Shidako: C: *keeps walking along with the others*

Mia: *walks with Blood Puppet, thinking that it may not have been such a bad idea after all*

Altodd: *nuzzles Key back, his whiskers brushing against her face*

Harry: ...

Blood Puppet: *He hopes to find a Life City patrol or something that he can eat*

Key: *laughs quietly, as his whiskers tickle her face a bit--she kisses the side of his snout*

Mia: *wonders what their plan is--she knows nothing about the potion*

Altodd: *rests his head back against Key's neck*

Lucifer: *knows that sneaking into Water City will be incredibly difficult. Getting the potion will be even more so*

Harry: ...

Key: *runs her claws through his fur*

Zorua: *is a bit nervous about the mission*

Altodd: *enjoys this, his tail stub wagging*

Blood Puppet: *is very, very hungry*

Harry: ...

Key: *keeps doing this, nuzzling the top of his head*

Mia: ... >___>;

Blood Puppet: *after much walking, he stumbles and crashes into a tree*

Lucifer: Oh for the love of -- What NOW?

Harry: I don't know. Mia, what's wrong with him?

Todd: ...

Altodd: *remains happy and squirmy*

Mia: !! ...He hasn't eaten in a while... D;

Key: *tries to hold Altodd still* :/?

Lucifer: You damned mortals and your need for FOOD... Like some damned VACUUMS... What do you expect US to do about it? He's a CANNIBAL! D:<

Harry: *thinks* ...

Blood Puppet: *Is starving*

Altodd: *lets out a little bear-like cry*

Mia: I don't know, but if he doesn't eat, he'll die! D:>

Key: *tries to shush Altodd by petting him* Shhh...

Harry: I'll help. *takes Blood Puppet's katana out of the starving man's hand*

Lucifer: ... Harry, what are you doing?

Altodd: *whines*

Key: *pets Altodd, looking over at Harry, confused*

Claire: *looks over, also confused* ?

Mia: D:/ ....

Harry: *putting his arm against a tree and with a few whacks, he manages to lop off his forearm* AAUGH!!

Everyone: D8 ??!!??

Blood Puppet: *looks over at the fallen forearm* ...?

Altodd: *yips*

Claire: !!!!?!???!? *suddenly feels like her arm is about to pop off* DDDD8>?!?!

Mia: *steps AWAY from the amputated limb* DDDDD8

Key: O__________O;;;; *immediately looks away* O___________________________________O;;;;

Harry: *His arm slowly starts regenerating. Through clenched teeth and sweat, he hisses at Blood Puppet* Eat it! EAT!

Lucifer: <__<;

Blood Puppet: Th... Thank you... *he picks up the arm and shuffles away to eat it so he doesn't disturb the others*

Altodd: *Yips again*

Mia: O______________________O;;;;

Key: *busies herself with nuzzling Altodd, to take her mind off the freakish thing she just witnessed* .___.;;;

Claire: *flinches when she feels this disgusting, crawling sensation along her arm* D;

up

Lucifer: Perhaps one or two of us can sneak in, get the potion, and come out?

Sam: We can't just leave the city under Occulta's control... D:>

Harry: That's not out problem.

Lucifer: It is, actually. Nox Occulta still must be stopped. He's got the eyes. He's far too dangerous.

Todd: ...

Altodd: *barks*

Blood Puppet: ... So who will go in?

Everyone: ...

Zorua: (...I can go. I can disguise myself as a soldier.)

Claire: Are you sure?

Zorua: *nods*

Lucifer: I shall go with you, then, as I can make myself invisible to whomever I want.

Everyone: *thinks this is a good idea*

Todd: ...

Altodd: *hops around happily*

Key: *watches Altodd* ...

Claire: So, will you leave at nightfall?

Lucifer: I believe so.

Harry: *he sits down away from Todd* ...

Todd: ...

Altodd: *runs around a bit, then hops up onto his hind legs and puts his hands on Shidako to balance*

Shidako: ! *smiles a little bit, and pets the little werewolf*

Everyone: *scatters, sitting down*

Key: *continues watching Altodd* ...

Altodd: *licks Shidako's legs*

Todd: ...

Lucifer: ... Tomorrow night's a full moon. I wonder how that will effect Altodd.

Shidako: :P *holds his front paws to keep him balanced, then kneels in front of him, setting his paws back on her shoulders* <:P

Key: ... I hadn't really thought of that...

Altodd: *licks Shidako's face now that it's in reach*

Lucifer: I'm not surprised. Too much has gone on.

Shidako: *doesn't really mind it too much. she nuzzles him, still petting him*

Key: ...Maybe he'll just be more energetic...?

Altodd: *he nuzzles her back, his tail wagging*

Lucifer: ... Or more dangerous.

Shidako: *growls playfully, and tickles him*

Key: ...I think I can handle him. Just have to catch him before the sun sets.

Altodd: *squeals and hops off her to avoid being tickled*

Todd: ...

Lucifer: Mnh.

Shidako: C:< *chases him around, trying to catch and tickle him again*

Key: ...

Altodd: *Runs around, extremely quick*

Lucifer: I suppose we should walk with what time we have left.

Todd: ...

Shidako: ! *chases him, barely managing to catch him* >:D!!

Key: ..I guess...

Altodd: *yelps and squirms in Shidako's grip*

Lucifer: WE'RE WALKING!

Everyone: *starts to trek*

Harry: *pulls Todd's arm to get him to follow*

Key: *avoids looking at Todd. she looks over at Shidako and Altodd instead* ...

Shidako: *notices Key looking. she goes and passes Altodd over to Key--she was pretty sure the poor girl needed the distraction* :)

Key: *smiles appreciatively, and takes Altodd from her*

up

Todd: Hkkh...

meanwhile

Blood Puppet: ... It's better for me to be dead than trapped in this hell with no one but myself...

Shidako: ...

meanwhile

Mia: And how do you think I feel? No one here knows me but you. We're on the same boat, Walt...

Todd: *lightly touches his arm - the one wrapped tightly to a machete* ...

meanwhile

Blood Puppet: ... No we're not. I'm alone. You're not.

Shidako: ? *notices the movement, and looks back over at him* ...

meanwhile

Mia: *is silenced by this* ...

Todd: *wears that same, sad, dead expression on his face*

meanwhile

Blood Puppet: ... I thought... I thought the lake could change that...

Shidako: ... <:(

meanwhile

Mia: ...I could... I could TRY... if you want...

Todd: ...

meanwhile

Blood Puppet: *his expression lights up, though this is impossible to tell with his mask on* Y-you could?

Shidako: ... *looks away again*

meanwhile

Mia: *starts to wonder if she's going to regret the offer* ...I could.

Todd: *stares at nothing*

meanwhile

Blood Puppet: ... *he slowly, carefully takes Mia's hand into his own* ...

Shidako: ...

meanwhile

Mia: *laces her fingers together with his, then reaches up with her other hand to take his mask off*

Todd: *nothing-stares*

meanwhile

Blood Puppet: *he lets her, the removal of the mask revealing a small, innocent sort of smile*

Shidako: *wonders how long it will take for the others to come back*

meanwhile

Mia: *finds that smile to be very familiar, ends up smiling a bit as well. maybe this COULD work out...*

Todd: *Dead to the world* ...

meanwhile

Lucifer: Oh good, Mia, you found him.

Group: *tired*

Blood Puppet: ... Yes. *he puts his mask back on and stands up* She did.

Lucifer: Why did you run away?? D8<

Blood Puppet: Personal reasons. I'm back now, though.

Shidako: *waits*

meanwhile

Mia: That's what matters, right? :/

Todd: *moans a little*

meanwhile

Lucifer: ... We'll see. Come. Let's head back.

*they do*

Shidako: *looks up when she hears the others approaching, and sighs a bit in relief when she sees them*

Key: *avoids looking at Todd* ...

Todd: *looks right at Key* ...

Harry: *also avoids looking at Todd*

Lucifer: So then... We have the body. We best be getting back to Water City to bring Todd back. Though he'll probably just betray us again. |:/

Key: *does NOT look at Todd*

Claire: How are we going to get in there with Occulta's army occupying the city??

up

Todd: *stays resting on the tree*...

meanwhile

Blood Puppet: I tried killing everyone before because I was ordered to... I TALK ABOUT EATING PEOPLE BECAUSE IT'S THE ONLY WAY I CAN SURVIVE AND RIGHT NOW I'M STARVING! I WASN'T REALLY THREATENING YOU, JUST TRYING TO MAKE A POINT!! DB<

Shidako: ... *reaches over and pokes him*

meanwhile

Mia: We're ALL hungry, Walt, we've been running for DAYS...! Have you TRIED eating anything else??

Todd: *doesn't react* ...

meanwhile

Blood Puppet: ... I tried that after I was cured. I couldn't eat anything else without vomiting it back up.

Shidako: ... <:( *grabs him by the shoulders and sits him down against the tree*

meanwhile

Mia: ...But... Key and Todd don't have to...?

Todd: *is sat down without resistance*

meanwhile

Blood Puppet: ... Something went horribly wrong when I was cured... Something just... Didn't work for me...

Shidako: *sits down in front of him, watching him carefully. the idea that a person could be simultaneously dead but somehow alive was perplexing to her* ....

meanwhile

Mia: ...oh...

Todd: *looks up at Shidako* ...

meanwhile

Blood Puppet: Not that that changes anything. I'm still a monster to you.

Shidako: ! *stares into his eyes, trying to find ANY signs of life*

meanwhile

Mia: *quietly* ...I'm afraid because you CHANGED, Walt... I know it was years to you, but it was just a DAY for me... It just... It feels like you're a completely different person now.

Todd: *there is no life in his eyes*

meanwhile

Blood Puppet: But I'm the SAME, the same, the same...!

Shidako: *sighs sadly, then glances around, waiting for the others* ...

meanwhile

Mia: *wraps her arms around herself* I could give you a list, but that would be cruel...

Todd: *quite dead. He isn't breathing nor does he have a heartbeat or pulse. He's nothing but a human puppet for Occulta and his necromancers to pull the strings of*

meanwhile

Blood Puppet: ... YOU'RE cruel... cruel for TAUNTING me...

Shidako: *feels quite alone there, in that little clearing. She wished Todd hadn't died--she was fond of him* ...

meanwhile

Mia: *incredulously* Taunting? HOW? D:/

Todd: *rolls over onto his side* ...

meanwhile

Blood Puppet: ... Taunting me by BEING HERE... yanking my chain like the dog I am... leaving me STUCK with UNREQUITED LOVE...

Shidako: <:/ *sits him back up again*

meanwhile

Mia: *scoffs* How could you POSSIBLY blame ME for that?! D:>

Todd: Hhh...

meanwhile

Blood Puppet: ... I don't know. I can't. Why... couldn't you just let me die...?

Shidako: *it is now that she notices the lack of a heartbeat. this greatly saddens her. she pulls away again, and tries to avoid looking at him* ...

meanwhile

Mia: ...it would have been wrong to let you die... I couldn't leave you again...
