Post by **Josiah** » Sat Oct 30, 2004 2:26 pm

*With no clear destination, Josiah and Virgo continued walking in the endless darkness.*

"Do you think this is the dark world?"

"Well, it's certainly dark enough." *Josiah tried to lighten the mood a little.* "Seriously though, that would make sense. But I don't know what the deal was with my clone back there."

"Maybe it was a shape shifter."

"It's possible. But right now I just want to focus on finding the others, my sword, or something besides this darkness."

"It's so quiet. Darkness and silence. That's all that is around me. I'm going to go mad if I don't find a way out soon..."

((I'll just post for later reference.))

Pffft. So Moen couldn't kill them. These evil duplicates of them should get the job done, being 10 times as powerful as Moen. Exposing theor weaknesses, their pasts, and maybe, help me get to their families in the wierd world. Heh heh.

"Sire, they have arrived. What do you want to do with the clones?"

Hm, this could be fun. Their little friend Jeffery has fallen, correct? We will get to the girl using his shadow.

"Uh sire, isn't that a bit-"

"Extreme? Precisely. This evil duplicate with not only be a duplicate of Jeffery, but wil contain the essence of his original soul. We should cause some good damage to that poor girls heart.

Shauni, prepare for me to rock your world!"

((Sorry to Jeff if I changed what he was thinking. I'm brown.))

((Sorry to spoil your plan Pokky; but that's not the direction I'm going. You'll have to change it. And for future reference, only Shuani and myself can speak for me.))

((FYI Pokchu, whoever you're supposed to be, you can't have created Moen, he was part of the original game. You have read the first ROM, right?))

*After what felt like hours of walking, Josiah and Virgo heard a sound in the distance.*

"Have to find a way out..."

"Over there!" *Josiah ran forward.* "David! David, is that you?"

"Josiah?!? Man am I glad to see you. Where are the others?"

"I don't know. It's just me and Virgo. We'll find them eventually though."

"Look!" *Virgo pointed to a faint glow in the distance.* "That almost looks some buildings..."

"Let's go then!" *Josiah grinned, hopefull that they had finally found a way out of the void.*

((I read all of ROM. I was going to tie something in to have that all make sense.))

Pffft. I should have known Moen wasn't worthy to take care of them. These evil duplicates of them should get the job done, being 10 times as powerful as Moen. Exposing theor weaknesses, their pasts, and maybe, help me get to their families in the wierd world. Heh heh.

"Sire, they have arrived. What do you want to do with the clones?"

Hm, this could be fun. Their little friend Jeffery has fallen, correct? We will get to the girl using his spirit.

"Uh sire, isn't that a bit-"

"Extreme? Precisely. This evil duplicate with not only be a duplicate of Jeffery, but wil contain the essence of his original soul. We should cause some good damage to that poor girls heart.

"Okay then. Requesting the spirit of Jeffery Gallo".. The anonymous servant said through a very perculiar voice box. The spirit then floated up, waiting for a command.

Shauni, prepare for me to rock your world!"

((Sorry to Jeff if I changed what he was thinking. I'm brown.))

((I like that. Feel free to attack me, I like being the center of attention

))

((and Static Pika, i dont have a problem you joining, just give use a discription of what and who you are, and let me right you in))

Shauni and silver convercred for a while about there theorys of whta theses shadow clone things where
"They call themselfs the 'shadows of Souls'"
"That sounds heavy"
"I wonder why they havnt killed us yet....."
"Maybe its to make us suffer first..."
"I think you might be right"
"Really?" asked Silver silighty suppirse
Shauni noded
"Well, now what...keep wondering around in the dark?"
"No, we need to make some right..."
"Your right, let me handle that"

((Good to know that I don't have control of my character anymore. <_< ))

((Good to know that I don't have control of my character anymore.? ))

I ment the idea of him attacking me directly, not manipulating your characters, I want Jeff to control Jeff, sorry I wasnt more specific :(
Please dont be mad at me :.-(#

((I think Moen looks a little too...um...Vikingish... Other than that those drawings are pretty awesome. I'm happy with mine!))

*Josiah, Virgo, and David finally left the darkness behind, emerging into an unatural twilight as they found themselves in a forest clearing facing a very familiar place.*

"Is this...Onett?"

"It looks right but something seems wrong, and I'm not just talking about the lighting."

"You know people here, don't you?" *The boys nodded.* "So why not try to find them and see if this is really the town you remember. It could just be another clone like those Shadows of Souls."

"Sounds good." *Josiah returned Raydion and looked around.* "But let's stay together and keep our guard up. This just doesn't feel right..."

Silver summoned the same light attack that had first attracted shauni to him, it light up a small area around them, but it was still dark.
Shauni looked at the floor
"Look Silver, its durt"
"So what?"
"Well, if theres durt we muct be on a track....not an endless dark void"
Silver noded as he understood her point, he directed his monster to light up areas feather ahead
"Hay look, whats that!" she yelled as the dim light picked up a horizontal object
She ran over to it and softly placed her hand on it
"Hay...its bark...its a tree, we must be in some kind of warped forest"
She looked around more, and began to realise it was getting lighter
"Its like twilight or something..."
They both looked around in wonder as the darkness resined and reveled a place they both new
"Is this....Onett?"
"It kinda looks like it..."
"Theres something wrong here....its earer, Onett was NEVER earer, even at Twilight"
"So...this isnt Onett?"
"I dont think so, I lived here for 4 years...and this isnt right..."
"Maybe Yomikko is here."
shauni suddenly went white "O no! Yomikko! I hope shes ok!"
She ran headlong into Onett, leaving Silvers side
"Hay wait! Dont split us up!"
Silver ran after her, but found himself alone again
"O crud..."

((Okay then.))

"Silver!" But he had gotten too far away. "Damn."

*Suddenly, Gallo popped up infront of Shauni*

"Don't follow him."

"Huh? Bring back Jeff"!

SHAUNI!

"JEFF"!

FREE M- He was cut off.

Suddenly, Gallo began to imatate Jeff's voice.

SHAUNI! DON'T FOLLOW HIM! SILVER PLANS TO BETRAY YOU!

"Betray me?"

HE'S REALLY WORKING FOR MOEN!

"...But Moen has died."

I KNOW! THERE'S A-

SHUT UP! STOP IMATATING ME

Shauni was now extremely confused.

DON'T PRETEND TO BE ME! SHAUNI! SILVER IS A THREAT! HE PLANS TO KILL YOU WHEN YOU- 

"But..." Shauni was confused, and didn't know which Jeff was telling the truth. Jeff might be really warning her, but she might be being tricked. She stood there blankly, without a clue of what to do.

"I'm so confused..."

((What about David? Have you not drawn him yet?))

Post by **shauni** » Wed Nov 03, 2004 5:06 am

((Hes not in the comic for a while yet, im still working on his apprence, the rest of the gang will apper in the next few weeks))

((Poky, please dont control the real Jeff, hes righting something about coming back, so i will assume its just evil Gallo trying to confuse me as I right this post :matrix: ))

(FWI, Moen IS Dead, no come backs please, we FINALY got rid of him :) ))

"But..." Shauni was confused, and didn't know which Jeff was telling the truth. Jeff might be really warning her, but she might be being tricked. She stood there blankly, without a clue of what to do.

"I'm so confused..."

Shauni stared at Gallo
" A shadow clone tryed to trick me when I first got here...it was you Jeff....and I think if Silver was going to do something...he would have done so by now, we have been alone for hours.."
Gallo began to glare at her, she was on to him, he needed to me more devous, he knew things that only Jeff could know, because he was the darkness in Jeffs heart
"Then, I will prove I am Jeff..."
He came up quickly to her, and placed his arms around her, a familiarty of Jeff radiated from him, thought she knew better, her heart which had grown cold began to warm
"I know your not jeff...." she spoke
Gallo noded "I know you know, but am I not the closest you will ever get to him again"
Tears began to form like crystals in her eyes "I'm so lonly...."
"You think that your friends will ever fill the void he has left shaunicoco?"
Shauni closed her eyes and began to hug Gallo back, placing her head on his shoulders, and crying into the fabric of his cloths
".....no....."
"Then, you know what you must do"
"Go with you..."
"Yes"
"Where"
"To my master, the one that has given me life"
"I dotn care anymore...I just want Jeff...even if its only the darkness of his heart...."
Gallo began to turn into dark mist, and inveloped shauni, silver came running up, only to see them poth disapere
"SHAUNI!!!!"

His screams where heared byt the others where had found themselfs at the other side of twilight Onett, they came running..
