The Struggle of Ages

[Usha]

Usha summons forth her soul back to her body. She glances at the other rebels. The last thing she remembered was having the church collapse on her and seeing the beast of destruction. "What happened to everything?"

[Maeve]

Maeve smiles. "You will enjoy it. It has a lot of history." Maeve walks Trent out to her car, a black sports car provided for her by Red Infinity. She takes it over the winding roads. Roads lined by the stone fences that retain land erosion and sheep. It starts to rain again. "I plan on going back to Red Infinity later this week. I won't tell them about you though. I suppose they hardly even notice. You are one of the few humans they have now..." Maeve finds it amusing that the most common race is so absent from Red Infinity.

[Akira]

i wrap my arm around her and smile. "sure, let me go get ready" i kiss her and turn and go to our room, i come back out with clean clothes. i stop infront of her "so we going, or do you want to get a shower first?". .

[Moira]

"I probably stink to the high heavens, so a shower would be good...."

I smile deviously at Akira.

[Trent]

Trent nodded, keping a hand the gun in the pocket of his coat. If there was anything he'd learned from his time spent working as a Red Infinity Infentry man, it was that no one could be trusted until they where sealed in the grave.
Quietly, he said, "I had no doubt they'd stop looking for me once I'd stopped snipering their soldiers, something i'm sure they've tried to sweep under the rug. The only reason the head office ever even took notice of me was because of that whole mess with Lady Violet and that Dr....what-ever his name was."

[Akira]

i look at her. "ii'll get your clothes ready". i grin as i walk back into the room.

[Flask: Lord of Fire]

Flask kicks back, leaning against a rock. He reaches into his pocket and pulls out a pack of cigarettes. Whipping one out he puts it between his lips, tossing the pack to Lem.

"Care for one?" The cigarette in this mouth lights, a large flame bursting into existance right at the end. Flask puff on it a little and the fire goes out.

"Just as well. Bass is an ass. Bad news. A mortal that won't die is always a bad sign. I like your boss though; the bad ass pink hair chick right?"

Flask takes his cigarette between his fingers and moves it away from his mouth for a moment.

"I hear she likes to level buildings and blast things. Greg said she put a hole big enough to put your head through in Bassy's chest. Wish I coulda seen that."

Flask flicks the cigarette away. It bursts into flame and vanishes in ashes before it hits the ground. The Angel spreads his arms and his wings spread wide, the very edge almost touching Lem.

"So," he says as a ball of fire appears in his hands, "What's a guy like you doing here?" Flask tosses the ball forward gently and it blasts out of his hand, smashing into a ruined wall of cement. The wall explodes, raining tiny bits of cement all around.

Conjuring a second ball Flask looks for something else to blast. "I mean, your a warrior. Why aren't you leading the charge, whipping these rebels into order? Where are the leaders? Both Bass and Hope are nowhere to be found."

[Lemminkainen]

"Dude, I should like not be here. Ukko stole my soul and put it in an egg. So now I'm stuck being alive again. But yeah, Hope is like so totally awesome. she is super strong...."

"So yeah, like Louhi is back. I fought her before...back when she was just a human. we should have killed her back then, but she got away. so now she is back and badder than ever...."

all of this sucks. We cant defeat her. It is freaking impossible. Man, this really really sucks for Earth...not to mention the gods.

[Maeve]

"Yes, you certainly did not depart on the best terms, but oh well, Red Infinity will survive without a few members" Maeve pulls up to her Castle on the River Bunratty. She steps out of the car and admires her blooming black roses. The castle is old and gray, but beautiful like the angry skies of March. The cobble stone walk is wet from the rain. She takes Trents hand and leads him inside. "I just dont want you to slip and crack your head open on this slippery walk."

[Flask: Lord of Fire]

"The gods can suck my... oh there's something!" Flask launchs another attack and a passing rat is turned to ashes.

"Got the sucker. Now then," Flask tosses another fire from hand to hand, then is juggling three of them, "You wanted to know the plan right? It's really simple."

The Angel tosses the fires, all three striking a boulder in the ruined field. It explodes like ten pounds of C-4 had been strapped under it.

"We'll kill her. She won't go down far, or easy, but she'll go down. Along with half the other gods. Not the I care."

Flask yawns, "Pass the nachos."

[Trent]

"Yes...sure..." He alowed himself to be lead away, but stayed aprehensive. Within the castle he was struck with awwe, it was obvious of fine make, and he was even more shocked to find that despite a few altercations, it was mostly preserved as to the interior make, carvings, and such. He felt in awwe to be in such a marvelous gateway to his homelands' past.

[Lemminkainen]

"Dude, that is a good idea...I will help how i can. like, since my soul is in an egg now i really cant die. So like maybe Ukko made a mistake by doing that. I want to see it like totally back fire."

I eat some nachos.
"Do you like Finnish food, i totally dig spicy mexican stuff but I love Cloud Berries and Fish Head Mujaaka. Funny how finland is like the center of the universe. like, all the gods and great warriors come from there. I love Finland. You should spend some time there. we could like go skiiing in Lapland."

I eat some more nachos.

"And hot women. We have really hot blonde women..."

[Maeve]

"I am glad that you like my home. I have resided here long before even your great great grandfather's time. I have seen British rule and revolution. I have seen the terrorism of the IRA and the destruction of our government by Red Infinity. It was I who assasinated our Prime Minister...Taioseach Aoeffe Macnamara. But times change. The world changes." I take him into a room where I keep my paintings. "I have entertained many people here...Yeats, Collins, O'malley, Ahern, and now you...."

[Akira]

i get her clothes and hear the shower start. i grin as i walk to the bathroom and walk inside. "here are your clothes". .

[Machiavelli]

Mac is listening to this demon girls story. She felt compelled to tell him each and every point. but he listened regardless. He was interested in the girls plight and especially her feelings for Kaschei. The fact that he treated her like she was just some thing to use and abuse and still she coveted him more than ever astounded him.

"My dear emotions like that are useless. Find someone who is willing. Better to get what you can then discard it. Or actually better yet just find another way to deal with the frustrations. Love is trivial and the only way to have him love you would be if you turned into one of his spellbooks. Ha Ha. Ignore your urges to him. aknowledge him as your master and nothing else, that is unless he provokes it, but even then do not see it as anything more than it is. Bah you shouldn't lower yourself to such things anyway. they are more trouble than they are worth."

Mac sees her troubled brow and smiles at her. It is hard to be evil with such a one as this. She was so trusting and shapable. Truely an oddity in this time of feminist and whatknot.

"Ah it is ok. I shall help you Jareth. We shall talk and give each other advice and you shall have a friend in me in your time remaining."

There was a knock and a man entered i sensed him as no danger so i sat and watched. However if he began to smell like he would hurt her i would eat him. Angel-elf or no.
