From August to October

[Yoko]

Yoko pondered why he would he would suddenly sit by a tree, but kneeled by him anyway. "I would love to work in your garden..." Yoko blushed slightly, "But I stay hidden not only because I am shy, but because I fear many things. I've lived in hiding, and I... well, I'm a theif. Probably not a good one, I just steal meager things like food, or clothes..." Yoko sighed. She didn't know what she was trying to say here.

[Heaven-lee]

Heaven-lee heard the annoucement from the Bloody Violets. She sighed as she sipped her tea in the restaurant and finished it off. She got up and left a tip on the counter. She strolled outside and began reading a pocket novel she was currently interested in. Thoughts of what to do dominated her mind more than fairy-tales at the moment, though. Which one would she choose to go after? Well, probably either one that shows their face to her first. Chao Zadung or Zhuge Liang.
"Hmm..." Heaven-lee closed her novel as she began to approach a park nearby...

[Surma]

Riku said:

John
i glare at surma then punch him in the face, hurting my own hand, yet he seemed unfazed. bastard...., your the reason we are all injured in the first place, you are the only one that could have given jase a new body after he died.... i demand that you kill his new body, or else i will, then i will kill you.

(( To John and Kaze.))

"Touche, but you do know that there is no way of successfully killing me. Not even the jumalars and Ukko combined can kill me."Surma was less enthusiastic now. "I see. Yes I remember a dear young boy who begged to me for life. He wanted to live to see his sister named Kaze. He told me he just met her. I told him the concenquences of living, but he still wanted to live. I approved of it by giving him a new body. It was made out of corps. I couldn't give his old one back because it was past protected. Although he got a new body, it had side effects. I told him that the side effects were part of the concenquences, but he said if this is the way he had to live, than this is how it will be.

Rule four of the the living and the dead.

Those who wish to be brought back to life after judgment, must prove why by speaking to Surma. If thy words are pure, than shall it be that the dead turn to the living, but with severly dire concenquences. Given by this rule, he or she shall experience brain wash, death, over control, pain, and sarrow.

"If I destroy his body, he'll be brought back to the realm of souls. Do you want that."

[Melethni]

Melethni had closed her eyes again, and opened them when she heard him ask her a question. "I'm pretty sure you know what I'd say... or.. at least I think you would... seeing who I am and everything." Melethni sat up and looked over at him. "But, for now, I think I'll get dressed." She got up and went to the bathroom where her clothes still were and slipped them on, including her sword. Never know when she'll need it. She looked into the mirror and smiled. Well, wasn't she just glowing this morning? She turned on the tap and splashed her face with water and wiped it with a towel. She went back to where Eric was and pounced on the bed and crawled over to him and kissed him rather passionately. She then backed up and looked him in the eyes. Those blue blue eyes of his...
"Hungry?"

[H-008]

((OK, complaint of power play. I wasn't online for a ll of last night, and Kassenia just took my prisoner. You can
t trasport in and out of the parlour, you can't just grab a prisoner that's chained up, and you can't take her without a fight, or at least a discussion. She's also out of sight in a small cell attached to the room. You wouldn't know where she is.))

Seven grabs Cassenia around the neck before she can attempt to leave, and uses her poisonous touch.

"Don't you dare. That prisoner is under the jurisdiction of my lord, General Kolov. If you want her, you will have to take it up with him. Until then, I am under express orders to cause her as much pain as possible."

[Damascus]

Deciding to not wait to speak with Violet, Damascus thought that a walk would help him clear his suddenly clouded mind. He walked along the sideways and a few alley ways of Beijin, not really paying attention. He felt the sudden need to hurt something, make something bleed. He tried surpressing these desires, but they remained, prodding him and making him think about violence. He stopped and did a few breathing exercises. It helped a little, but not that much really. He walked into the First Community Recrational Park of Beijing. He wondered vaugly where the Second and Third parks were, then laughed at his own joke. He felt empty and angry and wanted very much to kill something. He sat down and bent over, his chin resting in his hands. He looked at some of the happy people around the park and felt like barbeque. He smiled to himself and then shook his head. He needed someone to talk to, someone to get his mind off of these horrible thoughts. Maybe he could go see Serena again, he hadn't seen her in awhile and she was his friend. He looked down and saw a flower. Looking around, he looked back at the flower. Suddenly, the flower burst into flame and he grinned in evil joy. He shook his head, took a deep breath, and wanted to do it again. He leaned back and looked at the mixed colors of dawn. Orange, purple, blue, and other colors, all blending into one gigantic mesh of beauty and tranquility. He looked up at the sky and let his mind wander down a path of happy and peaceful thoughts, castin away his violent feelings. For now, at least, he was able to look at life through peaceful eyes without a care in the world.

[Andrew Kasher]

((How does the Ministry of Terror know about Andrew? He has not participated in any rebel activity yet.))

[Damascus]

((They know everything, kid. Maybe they just want to pick on the blind dude. Their not nice people.))
Sighing at the impossiblity of keeping his thoughts peaceful, Damascus got up and walked around the park. Couples were walking around and talking to each other, Relentless was no doubt stalking the park somewhere. He didn't like Relentless at all, and he didn't even try to. He wanted to rip him into bloddy lumps slowly and consume them with joy. The image flashed across his mind and hoped that Relentless would show up. He slap himself on the cheek and it felt good, he wanted more violence, more pain. He couldn't seem to shake this monkey on his back. He needed something... he didn't know what. Maybe it was a woman's company, or maybe he just needed someone to talk to. That was probably it.

[Metsanneitsyt]

"Yes, it is hard swimming in a dress like this," I admited. "But I'll manage."

[Catherine]

"Alright then...as you wish..." I said jokingly. After about ten minutes I had finished. I walked over to the dishwasher to put my plate in it.

"Okay, I'm done. Let's go."

[Ikue Ito]

I walked into Larva's room, already showered and dressed.

"Hey, do you want to go over to Riku for food or would you rather save him the trouble and buy food ourselves? I asked.

[Flask: Lord of Fire]

"Ha ha, as you wish..." Flask rolls over a few times in the water. "I'm going to see what's down there..." He takes a deep breath and dives under, swimming deeper into the lake.

He pauses for a moment and summons a ball of light infront of him, shinning it along the bottom. Small fish and bits of sunken wood line the lake floor, a few trout, some little otters and such. Nothing of great interest but interesting in it's own right.

A moment later he pops back to the surface with a splash, his long hair flopping back into the water with a flat splash. "Not much down there but you want to take a look?"

[Metsanneitsyt]

"Well alright," I said, a bit curious. I dived under and smiled as a cute otter swam past me.

[Flask: Lord of Fire]

Flask laughs and dives under after her. He swims behind and to the right of Metsa and sends the point of light ahead of them so they can see clearly in the slightly merky waters.

It goes colder as they swim lower but Flask hasn't worried about the cold. He skims closer to the bottom and brushes the water plants and the wood, once in awhile trying to catch one of little fish, just to see if he can.

[Ivan T. Boomstar]

Ivan exhales smoke. "Heheh, no kiddin'. Point is you do love her. You're never gonna be able to deny that. When you f'ucked her, it felt different, didn't it? You didn't just have sex with her, you made love to her. All the sex in the world won't compare to one night of making love. There's a real difference there, Bassy," says Ivan. He puts his cigarette in his mouth and holds it with his lips.

"Oh, I almost forgot..." while Ivan is talking, the cigarette falls out of his mouth and hits the ground. Ivan steps on it and puts it out.

"There was a reason why I came here. I found something that might be useful to you. Ever heard of the Illuminati? There used to be a lot of speculation about this group. They were supposedly a shadow government that had divine control of all other governments, creating one controlling government. Well, most people figured the Illuminati Conspiracy was just some dirty rumor. However, documents have been found that prove otherwise. Not only that, but an anonymous contact was said to have given information as to the whereabouts of this group, along with an explanation of their roles. Their old headquarters was found. Their building had a small conference room. It had one small round table that contained 5 chairs. Along the walls were flags of every nation. They had a blackboard, some chalk, but nothing out of the ordinary. However, when troops got there, to their shock, no one was there. There were no finger prints, no evidence, no documents with names on them. It's like they were ghosts. They just vanished. No one has been able to find a list of their names...... until now. They hid things pretty well. No one would have ever thought to search Ganymede for clues. It wasn't even my idea, but I did it anyway. And that's where I found this," says Ivan as he pulls a file out from beneath his cape and hands it to Bassarov.

"This document contains the signatures of all five members of the Illuminati, codenamed the "International Treaty Organization" or "ITO." As of now, the group holds no power over the government. They never really controlled the world like masters of puppets. They were a group of well-off politicians who controlled the actions of certain governments through bribes and pay-offs. Most of them were at some point citizens of the old United States of America and could be considered Capitalists gone wrong. Why might this concern you? Well, there are rumors again. There are underground followers who say that this group is far from dead. I wouldn't buy into the speculation, except recently, a bank received a check with the same name as one of these men. I compared the two signatures and found them to be identical in style. Well, here's the list. It's in your hands now, do what you want with it," says Ivan as he pulls out another cigarette, lights up and inhales.

The document reads as follows:

"International Treaty Organization
-To the United States Republican Council

We at the International Treaty Organization find your candidate to be incompetent, incomprehensible, and unsuitable as a leader. We require a higher pay-off fee than we needed for his father. This will cause an economic recession, but it should not be a problem. We require the pay-off on the day of the president's innoguration. Then, you can blame the recession on the previous president. Upon entering the office of presidency, your candidate must take care of the rogue nation that refuses to play by the rules. We will stage an attack that should justify your actions. If you decide to except these terms, send us a written confirmation. We will take care of the ballots, so leave that to us. After you have finished reading this letter, please destroy it in accordance with ITO policy. Thank you.
