Something is terribly wrong. Aries is so angry.
"Aries..."
He denies the existence of my God, just as I denied him access to my love. But the Lord is greater than Aries or me or my love... He cannot be denied.
Aries floats in the air in his dragon form that I once thought was so beautiful, threatening me. He is not the man I thought he was. Maybe Peter was right about him all along, maybe he did kill those people... maybe he will now kill me.
"I'm sorry I could not give you my love. I... I would have given you my love as a friend, if you would have accepted it.
I do care about you, Aries."

"I don't think my parent could handle all this... to be honest, I didn't plan on going home again. Mom and Dad will be alright. After all, people vanish all the time."

I watch in shock as Aries transforms into a dragon.
"A d-dragon..? S'hit!"
I draw my handgun, and aim it up into the sky, hoping to at least distract him so Chastity can escape.
"CHASTITY, RUN!"

The crater remains silent for a time. Several rocks tumbling into it are the only sounds. Finally one of the rocks breaks loose, rolling out of sight, but the sound does not stop. It gets louder, finally stopping. Grove climbs up the side of the crater, having some difficulty. He walks up to Roane.
"Ugh... Ok.. That one did some burning... Are you alright?"

I hear Gheran, but remain where I am.
"No, Gheran. You go.
Aries, you know that you don't want to do this."

I look down at Chastity's small form, so petite and helpless.
"I am afraid that is NOT how it is. Oh, you like Peter...Peter the Owl. Even the name is dorky. Peter the loser. Peter the lame a'ss mysterious wanna-be dark hero. That is who you give your love to."
-I then look to the plant man.
"Ooh, and HE is so much better. The peace loving house plant. He is a suck up and a wuss!! Put down your gun little man, do you think that your bullets can peirce my armor of silver scales!!"
-I fly higher.
-"I am going to do to you what I wanted to do all along...eat you alive!!"
-I open my mouth and flash my arm length teeth at her.
I salivate acid on the ground between them.

((...hmm, gee thanks kith for ignoreing my post...))
i shift my feet and move my hands, point my middle and index finger upward. the dragon shifts and flies out of the forest into the air. once it is high enough i drop my hands and it stops, it turns and speeds back to the forest to destroy, the seven replicas drop their hands and their flames disappear. they glow and come back into me. i sigh and look around. ... now where did he go..., lets see. i concentrate on his energy signature and the mark that i put into him by the rose. ... come on kith, stay in one place..... i sigh and wait for him to stop

I raise my arm to my face to shield from the acid, then look back to Chastity.
"Do you really want to die in a place like this??"
I run towards her, still aiming up into the sky, waiting for him to get into range, although I know this battle is futile.

I am frightened by Aries, but I stand my ground. I know that he won't eat me. I know that there is some good in him still. I have seen the good in him before.
"I cannot choose to whom I give my love.... Yes, I love Peter. I won't deny it, and I would not love him if I could help it. I realize that he has taken the place of my first love, that my love for him is a sin... but I can't help it. (God forgive me)...
Aries, certainly you cannot punish me for something I did not even choose. I am your friend, Aries."

"Yeah...but if i lost you with no word...I understand your decision. Very selfless of you actually. I admire that you care more for others than yourself. Very brave."
She moves to her side to stare into his eyes and runs her hands up and down the side of his body.
"Tell me...do you wish to keep your beast now or find a cure? It helped you gain the courage to make love to me. Do you still wish to be rid of it?"
She forced a smile because as she spoke she knew her own beast was hiding. And she would have to fight to regain it.

Kaze sighed, she thought about going back to her apartment untill she got orders, they knew where to get her before.
Walking down the street she headed to apartment, while she looked around at her surroundings, something she did very rarely because of her career.

"I don't get it? Do you have a think for lame guys? I mean look at me, I am a dragon...not just a dragon...a hot sexy silver dragon....what is Peter but some weirdo altered human? If there is a god, that has to be a sin to like him. So keep on praying little girl, since no god can forgive that sort of error in judgement."
-I beat my wings steadily and hover above the both of them.
-"If I can not have you, no one will. And Peter can handle the loss. If nothing else it will give him something else to make him "dark and mysterious." Another pain in a life full of suffering, right. Well then, let's end this. I am tired of looking at you, you Christian w,hore."
-I take a deep breath..."Quick Silver"
-I spew molten metals from my mouth down upon Gheran and Chastity.
-"Maybe that will warm your heart, b'itch!!"

Peter opens his eyes, his mind feeling slow. He'd entered the lab... it had been dark and... and what. He slowly realizes that he is horizontal... he's on the ground.
He tries to sit up but his body doesn't respond properly. He moves from laying to sitting up alright but he does it slowly, like's trapped in slow motion.
He rises slowly. But even as he does he begins to feel normal once more. His speed grows normal once more, everything comes back into proper focus. Standing once more he looks around. He's in the alley, and the doorway is gone.
Peter suddenly realizes that his cloths are different. His plain cloth clothing is gone, replaced with something that feels like heavy silk in brilliant colors. He flexes his hand and it responds, snapping up and closing in the blink of an eye.
His coat is thinner but it feels heavier. His weapons are still there. His glasses spring to life, data scrolling before his eyes at a blur. And yet he can read it all, absorbing the information instantly.
Welcome online Hunter: ID confirmed as "Peter the Owl". You have just activated the final upgrade in your augmentation series. Your biological functions have been replaced with nanomachines. This new function will likely take sometime to adapt.
However, they will adapt constantly to new reactions, becoming more powerful constantly.
Thank you for selection LIF R&D for your upgrade needs.
Peter waits a few moment, absorbing the new changes. This was... different from what he expected. "So," he says to himself, "I have nothing left of my human side except my soul. Very well. If I can defend the world then so be it.
Wait... Chastity! D'amn it!" Peter charges his systems, feeding power directly into his levitation generators. The systems respond at 510% and the Hunter blasts into the air at near sonic speeds.
Chastity... where'd she go? D'amn it I never should have thrown her into the Ether with me!

Cayden and Sean had been wandering the city. Cayden was looking for other ursarians to spy on. But he was so far undercover that everyone thought him a rebel. He was such a good spy you see. No one but save one person knew he was a spy.
He walks along with Sean and sees a girl...no a woman and decides to see if she might help.
"Excuse me Lass...Could ya tell meh and me friend where we might find oposing forces to Red Infinty?"
He didn't think she smelled like Red Infinity...but If she was RI he could keep Sean safe and sacrifice himself.

I decide a fly around Helsinki should be good for me.
I change into my dragon form again and fly from Dions house. I look down at all the people and think to myself.
Anyone could be my father. Anyone can be my mother for that matter...
I continue to fly untiil I start to smell acid... very strong acid...
Wonder if there is a fight... I need something to pick up my spirts anyways...
I start to fly toward the smell.
