Ending the Dark

[Surma]

[If it wasn't for that energy I lost while my attack gathered at the point where Satsujin was, I could've destroy him completely by an inch of energy. If this worked, he would only be able to reform his head... Oh well.]

*Surma closes his eyes and chuckles in his mind. He feels earth's gravity pulling him in, also his body burning, but he doesn't care.*

[At least.. I can spare great time for those who have possesion of the kampa. Spare great time till they know how to use it.]

*surma falls into a forest, the impact destroys the forest, and creates a huge crater. Surma stays there, feeling his energy slowly building up.*

[Satsujin]

((Just so you know Surma, even if you had destroyed his entire body, his essence cannot be destroyed, and he would have reformed in a day or two.))

Satsujin materializes in the dark alleyway behind the Nihilist’s hideout. He slowly walks to the door, then phases through it. Wearily he searches the house, hoping to find a Nihilist to aid his recovery.

[Peter "The Owl"]

Peter nods, coughing, and takes the glass. He takes a drink then coughs even louder. After a moment he stops coughing and clears his throat. "I don't think that was water... but it did well enough..."

Peter swings his legs off the bed and puts his hands on his knees, leaning forwards slightly, catching his breath. "Seven years of murdering and death. I should have expected nightmares... probably have them for the rest of my life..."

He takes off his glasses and rubs his nose. He shouldn't have slept with them on, "What time is it?"

[Deetric Proudmore]

Deetric blinks his unpatched eye. "Another woman?" He walks over to the bed and sits down besides Helene, "No, no, nothing like that, sweetheart. I've..." he pauses for a second, "I've just been very busy lately."

He hugs Helene and pats the back of her head, "I'm sorry, Helene. I have been neglecting you lately."

[Helene]

She narrows her eyes into slits and turns her head toward him to look him in his eye.
I believe you when you say there isn't another woman... but I don't think your THAT busy. Please, if something is wrong, tell me...

[Hope98]

"I don't think that time is the same here. I am not sure." I say with a shrug.

I inch a little closer to him and give him a sympathetic look.
"This place alone is enough to give a person nightmares. Everything will be better once we go back to Earth."


(does anyone know when Celeste will be returning?)

[Peter "The Owl"]

Peter shakes his head, "No. No it won't. I've done terrible things. Things that would likely have given my psycological issues if I was human when I did them.

I thought I wouldn't be able to remember in this form, that the memories would stay with my other self and at first I was right. But in sleep... in sleep their there."

Peter rushes his hands through his hair and sighs again. "Penance I suppose." He chuckles suddenly, "Penance? God, I sound like I'm Catholic or something."

[Hope98]

"Our actions have a way of catching up to us. But maybe if you do good things and continue on the path you have now taken, these memories will become more distant."

[Deetric Proudmore]

"Nothing is... well..." Deetric bits his lips then continues, "I'm kind of nervice about our wedding. It's... It's a big event is all. When I was growing up marrage was like the second stepping stone in life. The first was getting your own land, if I remember correctly. I seem to have skipped that one.

And... and then there's the children. Well, their not really children anymore. Our son wants me dead and our daughter has moved out. We haven't heard from her in weeks. They just grow up to fast, I can bearly think of them as our children, we only knew them for a few weeks for God's sake.

It's been weighting on my mind alot lately..."

[Peter "The Owl"]

"Maybe..." Peter stands and winces as soon as he does. "Oh..." He rubs his collar and frowns slightly. "My neck and back are sore..." He looks back at Hope, "You really are strong... and this body is weak." Continuing to rub his collar bone Peter looks around the room. It's rather plain really. Like whoever lived here cleared the room out, accept for the bed.

[Helene]

Oh...
I knew there was something wrong but I didnt think it was all of that.
I understand... our children do grow too fast. I didn't even grow that fast...

Linette is fine. She moved into the Nymph house with the rest of my relatives. As for Leander... well... that was my fault. I shouldv'e never left you like I did.

As for the wedding, that date has come and gone. I would more or less prefer to go down to the courthouse and handle this now, before we both forget.

It is fine that you are nervous about marrying me, seeing as I am who I am, but please, dont bury yourself in your work or push me away.

[Hope98]

"I am sorry. I may have gotten a little carried away. I will be more careful."

The thought crosses my mind that we would not be getting along as well if he was in his other form. I wonder what will happen when he must transform again. Maybe his stronger self won't want to turn back.

[Peter "The Owl"]

Rolling his neck, Peter turns to the door. "Should we keep looking for Celeste now? Or at least check out some of those books? There was alot of informaion there.

Of course, it's written in Abyssal. Hard to translate but it's a very interesting language."

[Deetric Proudmore]

Deetric smiles and hugs Helene, "Your right." He stands up and nods, "And your right, we should get it taken care of. We don't need a ceremony. And we can always do it later if we want to."

[Hope98]

"We could look at the books. Red Infinity has many gods, angels, and demons working for them. It may help me fight them more effectively if I do a little research."

I walk out the door and head for the library.
