[RP] Soul Eater: New Earth

<< < (7/25) > >>

Lunartic:
Jessie stood at the back of the small, chatty crowd, her arms crossed and foot tapping, looking back over her shoulder every few seconds and checking her phone even more frequently. It felt like hours when her sister finally arrived. ”It’s about time you showed up. Didn’t you get my text? . . . You were sleeping, weren’t you?”

”How can you tell? Aside from me almost being late.”

”Your hair is kinda puffed up, especially on this side,” she said, running a hand over the left side of her head. Alex mirrored the action on her right side. ”You don’t normally sleep on that side. Are you alright?”

”Mostly. Better, but my shoulder hurts.” Instinctively, she put a hand on her left shoulder and rolled it back a bit. ”It wasn’t until after that class earlier when it started hurting. I don’t know why, I’ve done crazier stunts than that.”

Jessie shrugged.

”You don’t look so good yourself.” She tugged on Jessie’s sleeve. ”You don’t normally wear your sweatshirt like this.”

Sigh “I know. I just . . . I have a bad feeling about this. Like, I really, really don’t want to go in there.”

Alex put an arm around her. ”Look, we’ll be fine. I promise.”

It was as she said that when the door opened and a voice invited - no, more like summoned them inside. And the two sisters, side by shivering side, followed the nervous group of students into the chamber before them.

Desbear:
Hason

As we stood, I began to think back a bit to the day prior to this moment, trying to... Sort my thoughts, to say. 'Today's been... Interesting, hasn't it? It started out with us collecting our Kishin egg, and nearly peaked at lunch... Since, it's been a bit sketchy hasn't it? Even during lunch, the air was tense, as we both had multiple questions to ask, but were unable to gain the courage to ask them...  I remember we had made jokes about maintenance probably being like kittens and rainbows compared to some of the things that we had seen in town... So why am I tense now?'

So here we are now. Standing behind Steven, just sort of... Waiting. Beginning to think about now, rather than earlier. 'It seems that all of those that Mortecai gave Maintenance actually showed up... Including Steven, which is a bit of a surprise to be honest. Even now, he seems to be swaying from side to side, with a bit of a stupid grin on his face, as if trying to hide the fact that he was uneasy about this... To be honest, I thought he was overreacting, but I can't blame him. The entire thing is quite unnerving.' As a few of the others discussed what was going on, the door began to open, an eerie voice saying to come in, and so, we did... Though, it would have been nice had I not have to grab Steven's wrist and pull him in.

Steven

Steven stood near the front of the crowd, as he had arrived earlier than some, however... He had began to wish he hadn't. As he stood there, waiting, and watching as others arrived... He couldn't help but feel this sense of dread, this sense that made him want to leave, to run... But also something made him curious. It felt off, he couldn't place it, but this wasn't normal for him. He was almost always tense, nervous, and somewhat afraid of what was going on. But this felt off, even for him. This felt... Stronger, and while it could have been just his nerves and fear getting the best of him, he didn't believe it to be so.

This was why he was curious. He had even began to forget, and ignore what had happened earlier in the day... As other's arrived, he noticed the feeling began to feel stronger. He felt fear begin to creep further into his being, and he even began to shift where he stood, yet he did something he usually did not; He stayed. Truth to be told, he couldn't move even if he wanted to, his legs refused to move. Even when the doors opened, and they were called in, his partner had to grab him, and pull him along... Earlier the feeling had made him curious, yet now... He just wanted away.

Tickles:
A man floating in front of the children, wrapped in a tattered cloak that flowed around him. There was no wind to speak of. The machinery and vials lined the lab, a few tables merely said "experiment" with varying numbers, some crossed out with a red X.

So, you all angered Mortecai? That man has a serious problem. Makes sense though, seeing as he used to be a boomerang. I helped him becoem the hammer he is, and I may or may not have touched the brain.

The Stranger floated across the room, looking at each student. He looked at Warren and Silene.

You there, explosive stranger. Your soul quakes with raw energy. You want to watch the world burn don't you? You and I share that, although I have a much cleaner way to go about it and you must be his weapon. My, what a beautiful soul you have. So vibrant, and fiery. A perfect match. The short fuse and the hot flame.

He looked at Hason and Steven.

Something is off about you. You too share a need to destroy. But you're afraid aren't you? Why are you so afraid of your potential? Is it because it's naturally terrifying? No, that's not it. It's because you're afraid of who you truly are. And the chakram. Don't be nervous lad. You can be at ease with me. Your souls are in perfect sync with each other. At least, for now.

He looked at Alexandra and Jessica

You two are very peculiar indeed. It's pretty rare for a human to be born into a demon weapon family. And for you to resonate with your sister is even more rare. Such raw potential. Too bad you're wasting it. There is so much more to you two than you realize, so much more you could offer.

The stranger commented on the others. The air felt cold as he spoke, something in his voice seemed to warn them, and invite them.

Such potential, such life. A shame you have to go to "it"

The floor crumbled beneath all of them. They fell for what seemed like thousands of feet. Upon landing, all they could see was a burning landscape. Molten magma flowed in rivers. The sky was as black as the abyss. The only thing within the area was a large structure. A tower made of flesh and bone.

You see children, I have been working on a special experiment. I will be the first to study a full kishin. And your souls will be the final pieces to awaken it. One of you in particular is the final ingredient. Now let's see

He grabbed a hold of Jessie, feeling up and down her arm.

You will due nicely.

He used his soul distortion and forced her into weapon form. The arrow he had in her quiver flowed with an electrical current. A volley of lighting bolts was shot at each of the students.

THOR'S WRATH!

The-Blades-slave:
"Shit!"
"Aaah!"

Warren recovered from the shock of the floor collapsing first, twisting himself around to face Silene. The harsh air rushed against him, but he managed to find. "Silene, transform!" The wind drown his voice out, but the motion from his hand was clear enough.

"Got it!"

The explosive meister hit the ground hard, the force of it bringing him to one knee, and he gripped his weapon tightly. Through her wavelength Warren could feel Silene's apprehension, and looking around, he didn't blame here. The place was blisteringly hot, the only source of light the rivers of magma that flowed all around them, and a structure of flesh and bone extended to unseen heights in the black sky. He shivered slightly. "Don't worry, I won't let anything happen."

Silene frowned inside her soul room. "It's not me I'm scared for, you lazy bum! Be careful, that guy... It was like he could see our very being." No sooner had she spoke the cloak appeared in front of them, grabbing the Demon Bow from earlier, Jessie, and somehow forcing her into a weapon.

"Wha... Damn it! Hold on Silene, this is gonna get rough!"

"Warre-"

Warren cut her off, flowing his wavelength through her and slamming the butt of the scythe into the ground. The moment it made contact the base exploded, sending them arcing into the air and over the electricity, his foot extended in a kick. "Drop the girl!"

Lunartic:
Alex was shocked. Stunned. Her normally floating gaze was cold and unwavering. Jessie could see the words forming on her unmoving lips: human born into a demon weapon family. It wasn’t possible, surely . . . but nobody knows who her real parents are. Does he know? Would he ever tell them?

Jessie was ready to blare out question after question when she was flying, falling, faster and faster down and down. She landed flat on her back, winded but not dead, and gratefully took Alex’s outstretched hand as she came back to her feet.

”Are you okay?” she asked, brushing dirt off her sister.

”Yeah, yeah I’m fine.” She looked up and down Alex while straightening out her shirt. ”You seem to have fared better.”

Alex smiled and brushed a lock of hair behind her ear. She opened her mouth to say something but all that came out was a scream mirrored by her sister as she was pulled back by the hooded figure.

His touch was a strange sensation, a burning cold that made Jessie want to curl up in a ball and pray she didn’t exist but all she could do was stand there and watch him examine her, grope her like a precious little doll, a new plaything for him to do as he pleased. She wanted to do something, anything, but all she could do was scream. And his face, she knew his face wasn’t there, only darkness, but she could see the face of a man she swore on her life she would never come close to again. Yet here he was.

Alex saw him too. He saw the man who she would have killed to protect her sister, and here he was thinking he could touch her let alone be near her. ”Leave her alone!” cried the normally quiet Alexandra. ”You get the fuck away from her you backstabbing piece of shit!” She charged forward at them, but the others held her back. ”I’ll kill you! I’ll fucking kill you! Get your god damn hands off of my sister!” Her throat was hoarse and tears were streaming down her cheeks but there was nothing she could do but stand by and watch.

And she watched her beloved sister Jessica perform the most painful transformation she’s ever done.

It was impossible for her to move. Jessie’s scream was nothing Alex had ever heard. It lingered in her mind, blocked out all senses, brought her world to a standstill. There was nothing left for her but pain.
