"I'm sorry, that came out wrong. You have a mother and father, but they made you because you have an important role at Red Infinity."

"Oh," Iris said simply. "I understand." She decided she was also tired and stopped asking questions. She sat there, silently, for a while, before she got restless. "So what is this role?"

"You are going to be the operator of a machine that watches the entire world and surveys everyone's thoughts. It is a machine at the Ministry of Information. It is how Red Infinity will from now on detect rebel threats before they materialize."

"Oh," she repeated herself. It sounded interesting but she still didnt know anything of much importance other then what she was just told. "So these 'rebels' they are a large threat to Red Infinity?"

Post by Josef Stalin on Dec 21, 2004 23:28:56 GMT -5
Stalin sat in his office, reading the reports. He saw something on the Little Sister Project. He saw immediate ways this could work to his advantage, however, only if he could get on the good side of the operator. In order to do that, he would need to get on good terms with the mother. Stalin thought for a few minutes, pondering what to do.
He ordered a file on this... Erika Faust. The first thing he noticed was that she was a supporter of the Fuhrer and Herr Hitler. Stalin smiled... this would be easier than he thought. It was time he met with Erika. Time he got on her good side and, through her, befriended the child and operator of Little Sister. Ah, good ol' Stalin. So goal oriented.
Stalin sent out a page to Erika. The message said something along the lines of:
Ms. Faust,
It has come to my attention just how great your service to Red Infinity has been. I wish to congradulate you on your accomplishments and thank you for your services personally. You don't know how much we value your dedicated service. You will find me in the office across from Lady Violet's.
--Joseph Stalin
Perfect. Stalin thought to himself. Then again, Stalin thought everything he did was perfect.

Satsujin was unable to get away in time, the acid striking Satsujin's upper arm. As his arm dissolves he jumps back, tearing the rest of the deteriorating arm off at the shoulder. He brings his other arm back at his side, darkness flaring up in his eyes. A negative burst of energy emerges in his cupped hand as if he were ready to slash with claws. With a vicious upward swipe he launches the orb of negative energy at Louhi's lizard form from a short distance away.

((I am still waiting Autumn.))
Damien saw two familiar people approach the tree house and enter. It was Grove and Roane, the two Autumn and he had fought at the movie theater and at the tree house before. He didn't want to risk making a move yet, at least not until Autumn arrived. He didn't know how many people were inside the Green Party's base.

((Still waiting for you to acknowledge us Tovio.))
Grove waited patiently with Roane at his side. Tovio was a busy person Grove knew, having to keep track of all the deforestation going on around the world, so him having a scattered attention was expected. He spoke again, hoping to catch Tovio's attention.
"Tovio, we have come to speak with you."

Louhi moves but is too late. The orb hits her with great force and she stumbles back. Her shoulder and arm are now gone. d**n did it hurt. She looks at the charred stump and through gritted teeh manages a laugh. However you can tell it is forced.
SHe gathers her energy and causes a withered replacement to emerge from her shoulder socket. It will have to do for now. He was by far more tolerant of her attacks than before. She had to find a way to subdue him but this body was giving out under such strain with not time to prepare really.
She gathered her strength and began to run at him with her reptillian grace. Her arms swinging to her front ready to slash and her jaws opening once more. This time not to spit acid but to spout fire. Surely one of her dragons would have an attack to weaken this god.

"No," says Noe, answering Iris's question before taking another sip of wine, "But Violet thinks that it's a good idea not to take chances."
Noe listens and observes. Despair, suprisingly, seems to know who the father is, or acts like he does. That will have to be investigated later. Noe feels something tingle in the back of his mind and smiles. The job was done. The agent had what they came for.
"Well Erika, Iris, as much as I would love to stay I must be going. Remember, if yu ever need our assistance, you have only to ask." Noe turns and walks out the door of the room.

Stephen followed as he spoke.
"It would be quite understandable that some of the members would object to me being a member, but I am sure they will come to like me in time. Most do. And I would be delighted to meet some of the members"
He happily watches as she shows him the rooms and defenses.
"This truly is a very nice place, both cosmetically and defensively. You said there are underground passages too?"

As Louhi rushed Satsujin she saw something she did not expect. A slow smile crept on Satsujin's face, as she grew nearer by the second. An instant before she reached him for a slash a dark flash occurred, much like she had completely lost her vision for a split second. As soon as she regained it her charge was halted, in each of her claws was another claw pushing back. Finally she saw what it was. A black and dark purple, shining, scaled creature in almost the exact same shape as her was pushing back at her while glaring with its own reptilian eyes. The edge of its mouth curled up revealing rows of serrated teeth. It spoke in a guttural, distorted voice.
"Not every day you fight your own shadow is it?"
It was true, and a quick glance could prove it. Louhi's shadow was completely gone. Her shadow was now under Satsujin's control and used her form to create his own. He started to push back on her with mounting force as he growled a dinosaur-like growl.

She replies as she strugglesa against the shadow beast.
Why do I feel like i am in Peter Pan?
SHe is cut off as the creature takes her back. She lunges forth with her jaws trying to tear out its throat. SHe is unsure of how to fight such a creature. It seemed flesh but it may not be. d**n Satsujin.
When she saw an opening she lunged forth and sank her teeth into the beast but this in turn exposed her own neck. She knew too soon that it was a mistake as she danced this Dance Macabre with her own shadow.

Louhi's lunge hits its mark, tearing out the front half of Satsujin's large scaled throat. Darkness poured out from the wound, but he did not weaken. He spoke, the voice remaining the same as before as if he didn't even need vocal chords.
"I never read that book. A bit to unrealistic for me!"
Satsujin pushed forward with immense force, Louhi's huge feet being pushed into the cement with a loud crack. Satsujin finished taking one step forward, Louhi now having to lean back to hold him off. With a quick and unexpected motion Satsujin released his grasp on Louhi's hands, getting down on his forearms and spinning around, bringing his huge tail whirling around him at high speed right to Louhi's stomach.

"Yes, these rebels seek to overthrow our government. That is why they are dangerous and why they must be watched." Despair replies to the girl.
