Trajectories of Longing

[Void]

I sit behind some large boulders as Satsujin approaches, breathing heavily. Weaving my hands, I draw in energy in order to call forth an attack that might be usable against Satsujin. I inwardly curse Tyhja's foolhardiness, I am not strong enough to continue to fight right now.

[Phillippe Montaille]

((No problem, don't worry about it.))

I draw Cosette closer to me.

"It is lonely at times, but I have grown used to it."

[Aung San Suu Kyi]

I am pleased with the reconstruction efforts. The world is finally coming back together. I am not pleased with the fact that Stalin has returned from the dead. This is not going to do well for Red Infinity's human rights record.

I travel to the Ministry of Information to discuss some things with Dr. Murdock. I wait by her office for her to return.

[Mikhael Nadyezhda (Mischa)]

I wake up and Valodya is gone. I decide this would be a good time to figure out what to do about that letter. I get dressed in my old Red Infinity military fatigues to go undercover, and head to Beijing.

[Satsujin]

While walking, Satsujin was slapped in the face by a large leaf falling to the ground along his new path. He catches it a split second after it hit him, half crushing it with his fist. He growled at it with anger as he clenched his teeth. He was sick of it. He looked up into the trees with malice, black fire blazing in from his eyes.

“That is IT! I have HAD IT with this nuts!”

Satsujin throws the leaf to the ground beside him as he builds power. He depends his stance, bringing his arms to his sides with the fists clenched tight. Black energy welled up, brimming from his eyes like smoke from fire. The ground around his feet erupted into black flame and was turned back into nothing, and black lightning strung from his armor to his face, then to the sky. He strained hard as he yelled, calling upon his power as shockwaves blasted from his body, tearing limbs off trees and ripping up plants for miles.

“Void!… You had better… hope to the gods… that you are not… within range… Hahahahaha! Gah!”

With one last strain to contain his power he stood upright suddenly, spreading his arms wide as his head whipped back. Light was sucked in toward him as all sound stopped save for Satsujin's scream, only to be followed by the brightest flash and loudest explosion the void had ever seen. What Tyhja had created was almost completely destroyed in seconds. A huge white dome of energy radiated for 2 miles around Satsujin, slowly fading to an eerie black as it expanded.
When the light was able to reach Satsujin once again, he was panting with his arms drooping, but was still holding his evil smile. Everything around him was back to the void. Two miles off there were still remnants of Tyhja’s work, but all else was back to the voidal plain.

[Anna Khodorkovsky]

I return to my office and start calling hired killers. I find one who seems perfect for the job.

"Hello, I was wondering if you could meet me in my office in Capital City."

(anyone who plays as an assassin or hired killer can meet me in my office if you are interested in a job)

[Hope98]

"That sounds like a great idea, Lemminkainen. Thanks for your help!"
It is good to see things comes together.

[Victoria]

"It's time for me to go, Futsu, but please take care. You work too much. You need a vacation." I give him a quick kiss and rush off to do a mission.

[Dominique "The Cyclops"]

Domi tilts her head, that was unexpected. Well, from what she expected anyway. "Of course I remember, how can one forget their own legend?" She smirks and crosses her arms. "Change the world, eh? If it's a group against Red Infinity, I'm in. I need something to do then walk around or mess with my guns anyway. Gets kinda boring."

[Simona Weil]

I turn from James when I overhear Wyrm talking to Sasha and Antero.

"If Zinn is on her own, we should pay her a visit some time. It would be a nice gesture."

[Prisma]

I look around. I get up and dust myself off. I spread my wings and fly off. As I leave I land in the forest and walk the rest of the way to wherever it is I am going. "I will NOT join them. It's not who I am...if noone can see that then...." I shake my head as I am still shaking. It was good to be free again.

[James]

I've heard alot about Zinn and am not really against meeting her.

"If your all so desperate to go I'll allow it."

I smile looking over my handy work of the jeans.

[Simona Weil]

"You can stay back if you like, I don't think Zinn would like you anyway, James."

[Sasha Kropotkin]

"I'm glad we have your permission, James." I say sarcastically, then turn to Simona. "I agree, it would be a nice gesture."

I open the fridge.

[James]

"I like people who don't like me. Absolutely. It's more interesting anyway. You don't have to do any guessing when you know some one likes you."

I look at her from the corner of my eye for a small second, before reverting back to my work.
