The Dream of a Ridiculous Man

[Vaara]

Vaara gingerly took a pill from Seppos outstretched palm. She smiled at him and was about to pop it into her mouth when a pain wracked her. She fell to the ground and her head felt like it was in a vice. The pill rolled away and as it got farther from her she felt better. She knew she would not be able to do this.

Seppo she knows it will hinder her. I can't do it. We have to feed it to me somehow though. But if she knows she will hurt me again. You might have to push it down my throat. or something i dunno. She thinks it will hurt her so shes hurting me...We have to do something.

[Trish]

"I'd hate to make the poor thing suffer."

She sneers at the vampire.

"Fine. Later."

She holsters the guns, and stands facing Virgil.

"Well, since our plans for killing monsters seems to have been put on hold, got any other ideas of what to do?

... LIF employing a vampire??? What next?"

[Virgil- The Prophet]

"Well, the group is spreading out it's interests Trish, it's a new world." Virgil slides his arms around Trish's shoulders, leaning hos forehead against her's. "We could go home and catch up."

[Mark]

we get closer to the movie theature and i see a sign feature a old movie called hellboy. the images looked good, but i wanted to wait to see what was there

Caine
i mumble something and step towards her. i out stretch my hand and my finger tips touch her forehead... ... go ahead... if you want to take it. then do so... it is your choice.... i didnt want to help. but if i didnt, she'd get hurt even more. i concentrate and my fingertips start to tingle where they touch her skin. ... hurry up im not wasting my energy for nothing

[Trish]

"Yes, let's go home. This outing to the woods has been more than I bargained for anyways."

They teleport back to the LIF base, leaving the vampire, and Trish's favorite pants behind.

[Machiavelli]

Mac sits and watches as the sorcerer comes back down to their own modest bonfire.

"Kaschei...let go of these mortals turmoils and look to the fire. There is peace and solice within the flames. Come my friend and look."

Mac pulls Kaschei closer to him and whispers in his ear in dragonspeak so no one else will understand him...


Kaschei you concern yourself with these minor things too often. Do not let them worry you so. We have a masterful fire going and we are in each others company. Forget the rest of the world and get lost with me my love.

Mac had never called Kaschei that before but it felt right. But then again with this old b'astard anything can be taken wrong.

[Kaieka]

I am confronted by a skinny, blonde woman holding guns for a moment, but then she turns the guns on Virgil. I am not really concerned. I don't think I would mind much if she did shoot him. He is a co'cky fellow, and always seems to be in my business. I do think that it would take more than a few bullets to stop that guy, though. He is pretty tough.

I turn my attention back to the bonfire and my marshmallows, which are now a lovely shade of golden brown.

Perfect.

I take them off of the stick and put them on a graham cracker with some chocolate. Mmmm...

"Illiden, this was a wonderful idea."

[Chaos]

Shes right Antero. And it seems i have returned for the vision....but the vision does not include you. You were never part of the vision yourself. You have always been in this for the destruction only. I can see that now. Brother you have never done anything for anyone but yourself. You b'astard...you can't even love Simona because you look to her as property and not someone to care for. Free love my a'ss. Only when your getting some too it seems. I am tired of all of it Antero. I am tired of your bullsh'it. In order for the anarchists to truely achieve their goals you have to either ship up or be snuffed out. I don't see the first happening but i do see the second. And you know i can do it too. I loved you as a comrade but all you ever did was nothing. So say goodnight gracie.

Static errupts around him and his eyes become pure light. He stares down antero...a smile playing his lips.

[Roane]

She turns and faces him and walks backwards.

You will love it. I found it when i was walking away from the spot Jyin dissapated. I neede a place to reflect and well you will see.

She turns back aroun and leads Grove and Grant to this special place. They come upon a small clearing with a small river and lots of canopy trees. She smiled ear from ear looking at him.

[Raven]

i look at the three of them, antero versus chaos was unfair enough let alone misery, . i dont care what you think chaos. i cant let that happen, despite the fact that antero IS an as'shole and a bas'tard i cant let you kill him. . i concentrate and the place gets darker and dark electricity erupts around me. ... but if you want to fight us. then we will have to take this somewhere else

[Grove]

Grove stops, slowly turning around, looking at the surroundings, the plants ever growing beneath his feet.
He breathes in deep.
"Aaah. Here mother is well. Very nice. I am honored that mother named me after such beauty and scerenity."
He turns to Roane, with an expression that with a little stretch, could be considered a smile.
"Thank you for taking me here. It is quite beautiful. And for you, I shall make it more beautiful."
Grove closes his eyes, slowly lifting his arms, palms up, toward the sky. The plants everywhere, within eyes sight, become more vibrant, growing slowly but extremely fast for plants. Flowers spring up where you couldnt have noticed them before. The high branches of the trees spread over the clearing slightly, making thier canopy shade more land where beautiful ferns spring up.
The entire grove has become a wonder of nature.
"Aah."
Grove lowers his arms and opens his eyes, thier green color matching the color of the trees behind him.
"I hope you like it."

[Roane]

She slids to her knees careful not to break any grass only bending it. She smiles and tears errupt from her eyes. She reaches up to Grove and touches his hand.

I love it Grove. The plants they sing to us. They are overjoyed you are here. I can hear them all. None are sick or diseased. None are dying. They are happy because you have given them this. And you have given me a gift as well. I don't know what to say or how to thank you for this moment of beauty. Please come sit. We have much to discuss of the plans to make mother feel better

Tears flowed freely from her cheeks at this wonder. Grove was amazing.

[Grove]

Grove nods. He slowly and gracefully gets into a sitting position, one leg out and the other tucked under him.
"The plans I have so far are sketchy at best. I had mainly come to find Jyin, and know that together he and I can return Mother back to her former glory..."
Grove touches a flower with his hands, carressing the peddles with his stone fingers, and the flower gains 3 more buds, which subsiquently bloom radiant colors or red and yellow.
"But he is no where to be found, or felt, at the moment. I do not know where he went. All I do know is that I must find him for this to work.
I am however interested in this group you speak of that works to help mother. I would very much like to meet them. But we can do that later if you wish, I can understand the will to simply exist in this grove for all eternity."

[Catherine]

When we got there, I stepped out of the van, still wondering about the word "erwachsen." But I pushed that thought away before I can get too angry with Mark for saying that I was too young.

Okay...do see a movie you like?

[Roane]

She looks around and smiles. He was right. To live her for eternity. If only she could. She shakes her head and looks at him and places a hand to his arm.

Jyin was made up of the six angels. For some reason they seperated and he was no more. One i saw was called gregory and he took someone away to chi kage. I think that was the name of the place. Anyway Jyin will return only in great times of need it seems. And he has left us for awhile now. For how long exactly i can not say. SO it may just be us for awhile. And like you said it may be a long time before he comes back and i might not be around her.

She looks to her horse and gives a weak smile. As long as she lived Grant was imprisoned. And her curse was still there. She looked back to Grove.
