"I don't have to."Jack replied."I,know how to write things down."He stared at Ray holding up the milk."I think I'll pass on that."He responded."But tell me,why do you have so much stuff?"

(Ah, okay. I was just checking. ^^ Sounds good.)
The headache increased, and Ollie leaned against the wall. "Dead..?" Was she the guy's girlfriend? The more he thought about it, the more it hurt. "Okay, fine! This guy you're talking about? His life sucks! You all treat me like I am someone else, when I'm really not! That was mostly you! Why can't you all take me the way I am?! Why do they keep trying to fix me!? Everyone just sees me as the ghost of a guy who once was. What about me?! Why can't I have friends who like me just the way I am?" He yelled, his eyes watering with emotion. "You know what? I'm done hanging out with you guys. I'm going to go and find my own friends! Friends who actually appreciate me!" He stormed back down the stairs, and slammed the door behind him. He left the building and ran. He ran away from Holly, away from Robin and Arien's house. He ran away from all he knew, his head pounding with every step.
(And it is here, I will wait for Cyto. :3 Either Cyto can prey on him, or he will see someone being attacked by Cyto and try to save them. Sound okay, Sam?)

The reason he didn't write it down? He was too lazy. That, and his writing was terrible. Sometimes even he couldn't read it. Ray lowered the carton and wiped his mouth with a sigh. "My grandma was planning on cooking some big meals. She likes to keep stocked up. I also picked out a few items on sale for myself," he explained simply, as he began repacking everything.

Holly listened, her glare glistening, βYour not the only one whose ever been forgotten, Ollie!β She yelled back as he started, but she went silent as he spoke of how they treated him like a ghost. They did. It wasnβt right, it was all wrong. She felt her eyes water, as she heard his steps fade off, her shaking increased again. βIβm sorry,β she said, but no one was there.
someone was.
She turned back to the mirror, βWhy canβt you just be there instead. You caused everything.β She whimpered, βYou caused Sunny to leave, you caused all of this.β She looked down, βYouβre going to cause them all to-β
βDie?β a voice asked, behind her. Holly jumped, nothing was appearing in the mirro rother than herself.
She turned, she heard the voice before. Back then, when she was worse. When she almost turned into the monster. She blanched, backing up, hitting the mirror as she stared at the phantom.
βMiss me?β The creature asked, multiple voices made up the entity, the ghostly figure laughed then, it sounded too childish, too old. It wasnβt natural, and Holly winced at it.
Holly kept silent, bringing her hands up to pull at her hair some, her nails digging into her scalp.
βStop ignoring me!β The creature shrieked, βYou poor helpless thing. Iβm willing to listen. I can help you forget all about the pain.β
Holly looked onwards, voice shaking, βYou canβt fix something thatβs broken.β She looked at the phantom, who mimicked her own ghostly look now.
βYouβre right, why are you letting them break you again?β The voice even matched Hollyβs now. βYou could always break them instead, everyone turns on you. Isnβt it your turn?β
Holly shook her head, walking around aimlessly, frantic, βGet out of my head.β
βNot yet. I have a little something to...mend.β The creature added, lunging forward, through Holly, and seeming to grab an orb of light along the way.
Holly turned, eyes wide, staring at the orb, βWhat is that?β
The firgure chuckled, throwing the orb in the air, βA memory.β and absorbing it when it landed.
Holly looked blankly then, all recognition faded from her eyes, and she seemed very confused as well. βWho...are you?β She asked, the figure had changed looks, looking like a girl now, except it was all grey, white and black.
The figure chuckled, turning around, βDear one, my name is Evanesce.β
Holly frowned, wiping at her tears, βWasnβt Ollie just here, when did you get here? Why are you here?β It seemed she forgot everything about the figure. The distrust was gone. Just confusion and suspicion lingered.
Evanesce sighed, βHe left you, Iβm a genie, a ghost, but Iβm going to help you.β A little bit of color was on Evanesce now, just a tiny bit, splattered throughout her body.
Holly turned, βl have to go, Evanesce, I ruined my friendship with Ollie, I have to at least assure his safety.β With that, she teleported.
Evanesce smirked, βYouβll be too late. Even so, with the memory, Iβm more alive. Your powerful, I remember little one. You wouldnβt follow my wishes back then, but now, Iβm sure I can make you turn against them, with time.β With that, the ghost faded away, the last part of her to remain visible was a rune, identical to the rune on the amulet.
(Hehehehe.
Thought it would be nice to introduce her. I think someone may know what Evanesce is? Regardless, Iβm wanting to explore more of Hollyβs past for you guys. Thought it would be unique to introduce this little demon too.)

Ray was a tall, strong looking man with short greasy copper hair and a slight beard. His eyes were grey and his face was pale. He was dressed in a t-shirt and some sweats. "Oh, come on man. I've had enough people tell me that." Being 30 years old and living with his grandparents was most certainly something that wasn't approved of, but Ray didn't care any more. He picked up the groceries and started walking away.

(OwO chaos. Exciteeeed) (Aaaand here's our boi)
Cyto landed beside the retreating Ollie. It was a dark alleyway, with a dead end. Ollie was trapped here, and the exit guarded by the monster. "That was quite a fight you had there." He hissed. "I thought you two had some kind of friendship, but I guess not."

"I honestly don't care anymore. Have a good life," Ray replied over his shoulder, lifting one bag of groceries a little as a farewell. --- (Chaos: Heheh. :3 And that's the power they brought with them from the forgotten realm, huh?)

13 gasped for air, leaning more heavily on her. "This feels... bad. Can barely... breath." If just walking was a problem, he may never be a hero again. And the thought terrified him.
Carnal gasped and hid behind the overhang, eyeing her with suspicion. How had she known? But after a moment, he simply waved back, knowing she couldnt see but hoping she somehow knew.

"No no,nothing of the sort."Jack answered calmly."It was a challenge to tell me otherwise." (So,before this causes any confusion:Since he's not from here,he doesn't know much.The bird he's descriding is a pigeon,but since they weren't where he was at,he used raven to describe them.And the obelisks are the skyscrapers and other buildings (ah :3) "Let's say this. You're clearly not from around here, and neither am I. How do you know this isnt a holy place? That perhaps these birds are holy to these people?" Terra began. He held his hand up and it flew off.

(Yeah....
Kind of? The idea is, when the first experiments went on by Eliza and the INFINITE group, they opened up a type of portal to the forgotten realm when testing on the children, including Cassidy(called Cassie), which killed the children, and caused a Shade form of them(haha, foreshadowing something here guys), that amalgamated into Evanesce which had the ability to steal memories in order to gain some form of living themselves.
Essentially, their motive is to feel alive. The only way to be alive is to feel emotions, which they essentially get from the memories.
So, to prevent Holly from not trusting them, they collected Hollyβs memories of Evanesce, in which they gained some form of color. Basically.)

"Because if it was then that would imply that somewhere along the path people started getting stupid."Jack answered."And I know that you have to have skilled artisans to make those."He gestured to the obelisks.

Ollie wiped his face and whirled around, clenching his fists. It seemed Holly would never see him as a friend, simply because of this lonely nobody that unwittingly ruined his entire life. "What do you want?!" he shouted. He was in no mood for pleasantries. As upset as he was, it took a while for him to notice the strange appearance of the beast before him. He glanced back, and realized he was trapped. So that was how it was. This reptile must want a fight. He lifted his fists into an awkward looking fighting position.

"What is wrong with religion? Hope cannot be underestimated." He countered. "I myself am religious. I have places I leave holy, I have duties I deem important."

Well, considering how little I've had to eat tonight, I think I'm hungry." And without another word, Cyto leaped forward with a laugh, arms outstretched and tail ready to pierce. No, Cyto had no formal training, but his speed and strength made up for it.

Corona walked outside, glancing up, her sightless eyes narrowed, she clicked her tongue, then grinned, starting to climb the building to get near him. However blind she was, she was surprisingly good at that. She clicked her tongue again, when she came to the roof, and walked closer to him. βHello, Carnal!β She chirped.
(Sheβs too cute.)

"Not that,but the fact that a bird could be "holy"."Jack replied."I for one have met a few Gods in person." Terra shook his head. "Need it be godly? Perhaps a God simply deemed it their animal. Lesser beings have been holy." But Terra shrugged. "All in thought experimentation. Only thinking hypothetically. I'm Terra, by the way." With a brighter light upon his visor, he held out his hand to shake.

As they arrived, was laid upon the closest couch. His breathing was labored, and no healing had begun yet. The ruined lung was causing more difficulty than had he simply been stabbed; had it been a normal injury, it would've healed, but because it was absorbed, his healing factor was responding differently, and taking longer.

Corona stuck her tongue out at him mockingly, using a hand to imitate his words. βSure, sure, Carnal. Iβm not sure a man of your condition should be stalking me either.β She joked right back.
