ROM 4: New Horizons

A still half - well, more like, 75% asleep Silver entered shortly after Josiah, not even noticing what was going on inside; heck, he probably didn't even open his eyes. Maybe it was more like, 95% asleep. "Hey guys. I just thought I'd let you know that it's exactly one twenty seven in the morning and some of us are trying to-" it was then that he looked around to see everyone with weapons at the ready and, well, all the other chaos there. "HOLY FUDGE CRACKERS! ...Geez, if you guys are gonna have a party, you could AT LEAST invite me!"

"Silver!" Opal got from her bed and hugged him.
"I woke up and Neo was there, then Shauni came in and pointed out he had daggers, then Josiah came in, then you...I don't really know what's going on, but I think Neo got possesed again. my best guess." She explained.

Neo was suddenly pushed away from Opal as Shauni entered though the window. She then drew her daggers. "Get away from her!" she yelled. This yelling then drew attention of the rest of the group to come into the room.

"Ok you two, I want an explanation and I want it now!" said Josiah to both Neo and Shauni.

"Ok, how to start this. Well I can very well remember what was going on before all this. I had woke up from another dream I was having only to notice Tsuekasa laying next to me like she has the habbit of doing. Well I went to another spot to sleep and fell asleep. Then I remember suddenly standing in my house and walking out having no controll over my body at all. I walked to the inn and entered and then went into Opals room. I drew my weapons and struck and killed Opal. Then I suddenly woke up only to find myself here with my weapons drawn. Then Shauni came in though the window pushing me back." Neo then noticed that he was still gripping his weapons and quickly dropped them to the floor. "I'm soo confussed right now. What is wrong with me?" Neo then backed up aginst the wall and slid down and sat in a fetal position.

"Curse you Neo. You just had to wake up. O well, I will get them all soon enough."

Opal had nearly squished Silver from being frightened.
"Um...can i sleep in a different...country from Neo?" She asked, cutting off Silver's air.

"...can't...breath..."

Shauni didn't take her eyes of Neo for a second, and her weapons where still draw high and ready to use
"Opal. you can sleep in my room with me, I've gotten into a habit of staying awake all night anyway, I'll watch over you"
She moved back and gestured to Opal to leave the room.
Shauni never looked at any but Neo for the whole time
"I'm not sure what's going on neo...but even in my worst state I never attacked anyone in there sleep. Maybe you should restrain yourself when you sleep."
With that she placed one dagger away and used her now spare had to push Opal and silver out of the door
"Josiah, can you deal with him? I'll take care of Opal"

"Ok Shauni." Opal left with her.

*Josiah watched as the girls left. Although he hadn't said anything, at the moment he didn't trust Shauni much more than he trusted Neo. Still, if Shauni transformed again she'd probably make enough noise that Opal would have time to react. As for Neo, it looked like he was too dangerous to leave alone.* "Neo, Silver, I want you two to share a room. Sorry Neo but I know Silver is strong enough to stop you if anything happens. Also, you might want to wear a bell or something at night just so we can tell when you're up. That sound ok?" *Hardly an ideal solution, but it was all Josiah could come up with at the moment.*

"I object to the bell but I'll feel better with Silver around. Though I'd rather be home as it's further away from most of you."

Neo and Silver left the inn and headed to his house. Upon arrival...

"Well, I guess you can sleep on the sofa. I'll go sleep in one of the chairs."

"Why not use your room?" asked Silver.

"Because Tsuekasa has a little annoying habbit and is sleeping in the bed at the moment."

*Utterly exhausted, Josiah dropped back into bed and closed his eyes. Hopefully nothing else would happen, he really needed to get some sleep before morning.*

Opal now lay asleep in Shauni's bed. Shauni sat on the arm chair, watching her sleep.

She closed her eyes as a wave a tiredness swept over her.
Her head lent to one side as if he sleep but it then violent came upright again.
Shauni opened her eyes and they glowered Red

"So she is asleep we see...this one we inhabit" spoke a voice no one could hear.
She looked around the room, the towards the sealing
"The respectfully specking one, I call out to you. hear what I have to say, her the voice of the actor of the play, hear what warning I must speck"
The voice was two voices, one of a young girl, the other of an older woman in her late 30s. They spoke as one
"We wish to speck with the lion headed thing, we want you to know what we speck of"
Her voice carried silently across the wind, only to be heard by the ears of the intend recipient

Guardian Simeon sat in the top of one of the tallest trees of Havenwoode, staring out to the sea, feeling the wind blowing through his fur. He was hoping that the winds would help the Archangel locate Mahri.

It was here he felt a change in the wind... like a whisper...

"I hear you, Ladies of the Daggers..." Simeon spoke as the clouds started to roll in from the waters, "What is this danger that to seek to warn me about?"

Post by **shauni** » Fri Mar 17, 2006 8:45 am

"As you know lion thing, we have been set free from the daggers...this has pushed the size of this world to the limits of its capabilities...if Vanderbilt wakes the sleeping demon bound at the edge of the world...it will over load this world and everything will be corrupted...the demon I speck of is one who has lay dormant since the world clashed with the darkness....Lord Moen is not dead, when he converted the world to darkness, his soul was bond between the worlds...Vanderbilt seeks him, to use as power in a bid to become a god...she is misguided and ill informed of the true dynamics of this world and theirs....we know all this because the hellfire daughter has met with Vanderbilt some time ago...Vanderbilt used Envy to hid within her heart...there is a Sin lying with this one. We are stronger than it is, much stronger, but no one but shauni, the green creature, us, you and Vanderbilt knows it is there...it must remain that way until we sense why it was placed here....we must go now lion thing"

There was a sudden sharp wind around the guardian , then stillness

Shauni's eyes stopped glowing, and she returned to sleep.

Silver quickly fell back asleep but Neo could tell it wasn't a deep sleep. He just sat there in his chair thinking to himself.

"What is wrong with me? Why do I keep having these crazy dreams and why am I always trying to harm someone I know. What keeps possessing me. Or is it just a part of me that has always been there and for some reason is comming out. Maybe I have split peronality."

"Think again Neo. What is wrong with you is me. Crazy dreams are fun and I just happen to very much dislike your traveling group. Heck, I do plan of destroying the world as you. And no, this isn't a part of you that is now comming out. Though that might be an understatement."

Neo practially jumped to his feet when he heard the voice."

"Who are you? Get out of my body!" said Neo in his mind.

"I won't tell you yet and why get out when I have soo much fun. Well, I'll leave you alone for awhile, though maybe I should get rid of Silver now. You are awake and seem to can't break free easyly when awake. But na, I have things to do." The voice then went away and Neo sank back into his chair. It was 3 in the morning and Neo couldn't sleep.

"My power grow even stronger now. Soon I'll beable to hold my own aginst those daggers and Vanderbilt. If only my old masters could see me now. But they can't. Shame really. Now back to work." The figure walked over to a fallen tree near the edge of a small clearing. After putting markings on the tree it spoke afew words and the dead tree (small tree) changed it's form into an image of his. Using his mind he took controll over the lifeless thing. It begain to move. It sprouted wings and headed towards the mountains that surrouned the forest. Soon it found Simeon. "Hi there. Mahri is doing fine. Well as fine as can been. Man, children can be soo annoying when caught. She safe for now. So you really don't need to look for her. Even if you can find her, getting her at the moment would be impossible as I've made sure of that. Have a good night."

Simeon snarled at the messenger.

"Coward. You come to me with a wooden dummy and an aura of deep disrespect!" Simeon growled as his beastial instinct took over. "When I find you, and I am sure it will be soon, I'll personally take you apart. Then, I'll use your bones and flesh in a ritual that will purge your tainted existance from this realm forever!"

A loud, angry roar was heard through the woods and echoed over the vast plains near D-Edge.

In a slightly charred part of Havenwoode, Simeon held the head of the wooden dummy. "That is but a taste of what I have in mind for you, child-snatcher..." he snarled at the head, "But when I am done, there will be NOTHING left of you, not even a trace of your twisted spirit." And with that, the guardian crushed the wooden head in his black-gauntleted paw.

"That is the fate of those who seek the treasure I guard..."

-------

The next morning, Simeon arrived at the inn.

"... I take it you guys didn't have a good night's sleep?" he asked the group as they sat around the breakfast-table in silence, a few of them absent or nodding off.

There was no reponse, as Simeon noted that Ku-Chan was visibly pale.

He managed to chuckle in spite of the spiritual turbulence from the night before. "If it's any consolation, friends, my sleep wasn't so peaceful either, so you all can let Ku-chan off the hook..."

-------

(Um... writer's block. Excuse me while I find me a chisel.)

Shauni gestured to Simoen
"Guardian, I would speck with you a moment"
With that she stood up from the table and wondered out of the room, followed by the confused lion morph.
She flew up onto the roof, so Simeon followed the gesture

"What is it child?"
Shauni's eyes turned red, but her face was a smile

"This is very fascinating isn't it lion thing. She has no power to stop us specking threw her, but we did expect resistance...but she isn't resisting at all. Her mind is preoccupied with the envy within us. We've been looking into it all night, it is enough to keep us happy and keep us busy, its why we agreed not to play the part of the villain because this creature is riddled with different things to explore."

Shauni lent back and looked up at the new day sky
"These eyes can't convey the true beauty off our playground...we want to keep it as it is...we want to know everything about the rude one, the one we sensed you curse last night"
She looked at Simeon "You may find this hard to believe that mischief gods want to help you...but we prefer the warm feelings we get when we do something playful compared to the stupid conscience we sometimes get from this host...we feel...guilt, and we dont like it. We want to make it go away"
