The Architects of Reality

[Patrick]

Patrick clung tighter to his mother. The sounds outside were deafening. He broke into silent tears... ocasionally mewing as another explosion occured.

[Aristarchus]

"The Louvre is open 24 hours now that Red Infinity rules the world. That was one of the first things that Lady Violet did when she came to power...so we could go now."

-I look outside, it is rather dark.

-"I suppose we can go in the morning if you want to be all traditional about things..."

-I lay on a pile of flour sacks, and close my eyes. I can rest a bit.

[Surma]

Surma was again binded by more chains.Surma ripped the chains by using his teeth.He thought he was gonna land on the ground but Surma was wrong.His foot got binded by some other chains that bursted out of the portal.Surma reached out his hand to Yohko but his whole body was binded by chains.But Surma was still reaching out his hand even if it was wrapped by Chains that suck energy.

[Valodya Bassarov]

((I am on a little vacation for a few days so am not around. When you get to 30 pages, post on the new thread that I have created, but not before then.))

Bassarov watched as Gheran sought to challenge Vandella. Maybe this Red Infinity operative was not a bad guy after all.

[Shade Gi]

Dismounting Shade looks at the building before him. It was pretty run down but that was a good thing in this case. Less humans. "As good a place as any."

Shade steps up the alley door and places his index and middle fingers against the lock. Energy builds and the lock severs perfectly in two.

The Vampire steps inside, looking around at the ruined basement. Flood damage, cracked cement. Perfect. It took a little time leading the horse down the stairs. Good thing there were only five of them or he never would have made it.

Settling himself a bed out of a blanket Shade sat down, releaved to be off his feet. He removes his cane and lays it beside him.

Something overhead moves, feet scrambling on the floor.

"Rats..." Shade mutters as he drifts off to sleep. Had he been more aware, he might have hear the muffled voices as well but such was not the case. The Vampire closed his eyes and slept.

[Halo Dove Kuin]

Kuin, recovered from the brief mind control, keeps his hands where they can be seen. Surrounded by the enemy, resisiting did not seem like a viable opetion.

"My, I never excepted them to move so quickly."

But still, he as he sits in the containment unit, a damper collar around his neck.

"This is going to be fun. I've never seem an Infinity prisiob camp before. I wander what it'll be like?"

[Brady]

Looks up at the traveller and puts up his hand to shake.

Hello, my name is Brady. How are you?

[Dahlia]

Dahlia heads home after a long day at the ministry of Science lab. She has been working on a plant that can be used as food, fuel, and material for clothing. It is a hybrid plant that will grow quickly to produce things that the masses need.

She is very excited about her progress and thinks about this as she walks home. She goes up to her apartment and opens the door, while looking over the readouts of the latest reports. Everything is going just wonderfully. She shuts the door behind her, still reading, and walks forward, only to run into a table, banging her shins. She lets out a yelp as a lamp crashes to the floor.

Ouch! She wonders what in the world she just ran into as she looks up to find, not the plant filled, tan and green room that she is used to walking into. There is no plethera of bamboo and grass mats here, no. This is not her apartment at all. She looks around, surprized and confused. She bends over and picks up the broken pieces of the lamp. She wants to just leave, to turn around and figure out what went wrong... but she felt bad at breaking whoever's lamp this was.

[Adrian]

Adrian was jolted awake suddenly by the sounds of breaking objects. He gets up and puts on a robe and walkes out of his room. He sneaks up on the intruder and grabs her in a submission hold (Full Nelson). "Hello," he said to her, "care to tell me why you're in my apartment?"

[Dahlia]

She is grabbed from behind, and lets out another yelp.

"I... I'm sorry. I didn't realize this was your apartment. I thought I was going to my apartment."

Her attacker stands resolute behind her, not allowing her to move her arms or head. He doesn't seem to be buying it. 'really,' she thinks, 'do I look like a burgler?' She is frightened and now wishes that she had left the lamp and gone away.

"Really, I live in this building. I was trying to go to apartment number 204, I promise."

[Adrian]

Adrian smiled and released her. "This is apartment 206," he said politley. He believed her story, but was still weary of her.

[Dahlia]

She reached a hand up to massage her neck, which had been thoroughly wrenched. Then she bent down to pick up the many white pages which now littered the floor. They had been flung, in a cascade to the brown carpetting when the man had put her in the hold.

She looked up at him while she picked up the papers.

"We are neighbors then. I am suddenly glad that I never had need to borrow a cup of sugar."

She had finished picking up the papers, which were now all out of order, she would have to organize them when she got into her apartment.

"I am sorry about the lamp. I will pay for a new one."

[Adrian]

"It's quite alright, that won't be necessary," Adrian said smiling. He felt he needed to make up for his harsh treatment of her earlier. "Are you thirsty?" he asked.

[Dahlia]

She felt compelled to leave, but she was a bit thirsty... she was half ruwaii, afterall, and it would be good for her to get to know some of her neighbors. She tended to not a'ssociate with many people. She much preferred the company of plants.

"I could stay for a drink, I suppose, but then I must be going. I have a lot of paperwork to look over tonight."

She sat down on the edge of the couch, she had her hand in her pocket, which is where she had a few poison tipped darts, just in case this guy was up to no good. she did feel badly about breaking his lamp, however.

[Adrian]

Adrian looked down realising that her handwas in her pocket. "That's really not necessary," he said, "I do not intend to harm you." He smiled and walked into teh kitchen and returned shortly with a pot of green tea and two cups. He poured his guest one.
