"Freakin' furs..." Isaac muttered, looking away. "Whatever. What's the plan? We finding this green boy or what?"
Carnal gasped and went to jump for her, wrapping his arms under her. The shirt she wore blocked contact this time. "Corona! Are you okay?" However, he had felt it too. He knew what she had seen- an old memory, a terrible one. Night.

Bastet looked to the side, “No. you obviously won’t be able to handle this.” She whispered out, “And you don’t need to be involved, we don’t want anyone to die on our behalf.”

Corona was shaking, “Who was that....that man of darkness?”
Akira rushed forward, worry flickering in her eyes.

Isaac gasped and glared at her. "I don't like the assumptions you're making there about me. Dying is not something I do."
Carnal bit his lip and looked away. "My... creator." Carefully he helped her up, and then stepped back. "An evil man created me in hopes I would be his minion. I was not."

Bastet walked forward, “Everyone dies, and you have no idea what dying feels like. Take the suggestion and go, you’re not invulnerable, thinking you are is beyond dangerous.”
Corona nodded, standing up. “He sounds scary.” She whispered, and Akira frowned deeply.
Elsewhere, in another void and dimension, a young Homunculus stared at a orb of magic in her hand, and sighed, letting it go. “Master?” She called, scarlet eyes narrowed, “Master where are you?”

Blink took the punch again without moving, and continued to stand there. With a weapon like Nail, he wouldn't be surprised if she had killed before. "Many of them were innocent," he continued, staring at her with his icy gaze. It was as if he didn't hear her question, or didn't bother to answer. He didn't ask who she killed or why. He just stared, waiting for the anger and blame he hoped and feared would cross her face.

"I'm pretty d*mn close." He replied, fist balling up against his side. "If we didn't have more important things to do, I'd invite you to test me." "He is. But a group of heroes banished him to another realm just recently." His smile returned. "I'm freed from his influence." "Follow my voice. As I've taught, in this realm of darkness, your eyes deceive you." And as she did, he finally ignited a small light in his palm. Night smiled upon his pupil.

And you're not pushing me away for fear of my safety, not primarily." Hornet finally gazed up at him, a soft and caring gaze. "You're scared to let yourself attach. You don't think you deserve it."

Something flashed in Blink's gaze, and he took a step back. Her words struck deeper than any of the punches. Why wasn't she angry? Why wasn't she pushing him away? Instead, he got this look of sadness and genuine concern. Why did she have to make this so hard!? His hard exterior was cracking. He didn't want it to. It would only bring more pain. "You'll die, just like all the others..." he repeated, his voice faltering this time.

"Then I will die! You oaf, I care about you whether you like it or not. You're not pushing me away!" Hornet cried out, finally tears beading on her lashes. "You're selfish and cruel and unkind to everyone around you, and now I know it's because you're just scared! So stop pretending!"

Blink averted his gaze to the window. He walked towards it and made as if to look between the slats. He swallowed, trying to contain the ache in his chest. "How do you know? How do you know I'm not a cruel, selfish, unkind person? Many people would consider me one. You want to stay with me? A murderer; a man who ends up killing his own friends?" His mouth suddenly snapped shut. He hadn't meant to actually say it, but it was too late now. His head leaned against the window, crinkling the slats.

(My boy's oblivious. ^^) Ray sighed. This conversation was becoming quite bothersome. It made him think of things he didn't want to think about. Upon Boris' next question, Ray shot him a suspicious look. "A house. Why would you want to know?" He didn't notice the change in the weather. All he wanted to do was find a way to block this guy out and get a good sleep for the night. "Because it looks like it's about to rain you shallow bafoon!"Boris barked."Look up and use the brain you were given and figure it out!" (Ray,Boris,keep the blood away from the homeless people lol

Bastet turned, her eyes icy. “And That is exactly why you shouldn’t be helping.” She hissed out.
Corona looked pale, it seems, perhaps, she saw something else too. “I have a feeling,” she whispered, “That he won’t be alone next time, will he?” The next time, was perhaps frightening.
Chaos turned, closing her eyes, and smiling, “There you are!” She greeted, turning towards him and opening her eyes. “Yes, but I won’t be tethered to this realm forever,” she added, “and maybe then I can free you?” She asked.

Ray looked up. "Huh. Well, look at that." He sat up and glanced at Boris. "I guess the fire's gonna go out soon." He didn't understand what Boris was so worried about. It was just gonna be some rain by the looks of it. He stood, and did a couple more stretches.

She whispered. "But I know you need me. And I know I want to help. So please, don't push me away anymore. Tell me what is in your heart." Hornet stood then, knowing herself to still be on shaky feet, and yet trusting herself to follow his steps to the window. She stayed a meter or so away.

"I'm tired of arguing! You, wolf god boy! Make a decision since she's too focused on being a doaf." Isaac whipped his head to face Anubis. Carnal bit his lip. "You're probably right. But that's only if there is a next time. He may be gone forever." Night sighed and shook his head. "You're right, you will be gone. But your job should not be to free me. Others are working towards this goal. No, I have a much more important job. One I can entrust only to you." He beckoned her closer, as if the very shadows might reveal secrets. "I'd like you to find others whom might come to our side. Allies. I've foreseen a future quite perilous indeed for our side, and where powerful friends are a requirement." (And I can't wait to introduce one of them :3 Future plots need future villains! Even if it's still Night, it's good to have villains linked to certain heroes. This upcoming one is linked to Hornet specifically! )

(Oh? An old nemesis of Hornet's, hm? Interesting.)
By the sound of it, she wasn't going to agree on leaving. "Why are women always so stubborn?" he muttered, another feeble attempt to hide how he really felt. He was silent for a couple of long minutes after that. She had asked him what was on his heart, but that was a far too confusing to explain. "What do you want to know..?" He hadn't openly shared about his past for years. He was still uncertain whether or not it was a good idea to share it with her, but somehow Hornet had split him open like a nutcracker splits a shell, leaving him open, raw, exposed. His only cover was to face the window, away from Hornet's eyes.

Anubis sighed, “I would like you to respect her, and the decision isn’t ours.” He seemed to call someone, the call was quick and silent.
“I have a feeling there will be a next time.” She said hollowly.
Chaos nodded, “But they won’t achieve it, will they?”

(And here I was half expecting Ray to become a human icicle. XD I guess he got off easy this time.)
Ray huffed. "Yeah right. Like I'd seek you out." Before Boris could retort, he continued, "But I guess we might meet again. See you around, man. The conversation was... interesting, if not annoying. Though it was all too similar to what other people usually say, ya know?" he shook his head to himself, and gave a final wave.

She knew his gaze would alude her for now. But what she could offer was her hand against his shoulder, not touching the warm skin but simply against his clothing. "Start from the beginning." Hornet murmured. "Women may be stubborn, but generally we're excellent council."
(Yeah! Kind of a Wonder Woman and Cheetah vibe with their interactions.)

He shook his head and stepped away. "I'm... gonna keep cleaning." Carnal murmured. A bad memory, indeed. "No, I doubt they will. Unfortunate, but not unforeseen. You will be my guide. With you, the world shall change." He smiled darkly. "You will have my powers, soon."

Blink stiffened. "I'm not telling you so you can counsel me," he muttered, shrugging her hand away. He turned away from the window and strode back to the bed, sitting upon the edge. How much should he say? He took a deep breath, and motioned for her to sit beside. All the while, he avoided her gaze. "I was raised in an orphanage..." he began.
(Yep. Next post will be a long one. XD I like making backstories. [though for some strange reason, most are very sad])

(She isss, thank you~) (OwO?)

Anubis sighed, glancing at him with a level glare, “It’s up to the others...too”
Bastet took the moment to leave, running off in the moonlight. She landed on the ground, hiding away from a group of passerby’s, and glancing at the mansion before her. A wicked gleam took over her face. The home of Sakura “Rose” Raven, alias Hanahaki. Rose May not have willingly noticed, but she did give away her name easily. Even with her masks, and hiding her real name, extensive research gave way to new information. Only Bastet could know it though. No one else may see the seemingly sweet Rose, rich and spoiled, to be a villain working in lunatics. But Bastet was wiser. She hid from the cameras, sneaking in quickly. She didn’t expect alarms to sound though.
(So the idea is, Rose has said her name as “Rose”, but actually. It’s Sakura Rose Raven. But as Hanahaki she changes her looks a lot, and acts much different and less civil. She very manipulative, and thus uses her middle name often as her called name. So thus her civilian form is unknown to mossy, but has been tracked by Bastet. Feel free to throw in a hero, as she is technically attacking a civilian?)
...
Ress frowned at the calm she had received from Anubis, her eyes narrowed. She never told the others about the deal that she worked out with the presumed villains. If she did...
No one would trust anyone anylonger, she was sure of it.
...
Corona nodded, voice softening, “I saw part of you, but I can say for matter of fact, I’ve seen scarier things then scales.”
...
Chaos nodded, her eyes locking on the outer realm. “My teacher, perhaps my powers will develop on their own too. You may have created me, but this void and excess magic powers me. But it saddens me to leave you alone. You have been nothing but kind to me, and I can’t believe the others would reject your vision.”

(Eh. I wanted to write an actual third person account of the story, but I realized I don't have time to write a book in a day. XD Sweet! Just send me the details whenever and I'll get started on the picture.)
Blink swallowed. How was he supposed to say this? He didn't want her pity. He didn't want her to console him. He hated how weak telling her his story made him feel. It was then, he decided to keep it short. "I ran away once or twice, but they always managed to find me." He smirked, but it quickly faded. "I was eight by the time someone took me in. It wasn't what I expected... They made me what I am." He was silent for a time, a cold anger in his gaze. "After that, I was on my own for a while. I was a thief of sorts. Eventually, I met some kids around my age when I was 11. There was three of them." He absentmindedly rested his hands on both staffs. On Pedro and Fernando. "They had powers too. We formed a group of sorts. Together, we stole what we needed to survive." Blink smirked to himself, as if maybe there was a bit more to it than that. Before he spoke again, his face turned grave. "But there was one fight..." (I will continue this tomorrow. ^^) --- (XD Nearby, Rosie is crying.)
Ray watched him go as the first drops of rain pattered to the ground. He heard it before he saw the downpour thicken. The homeless people had already went for shelter. The fire hissed out under the sudden downpour. He felt nothing, even as his clothes became soaked. He couldn't help but wonder what rain felt like to other people. Probably not good, since they all cleared out so quickly.
