Rose grinned, listening to Cyto, as her gaze lowered, “That I did, Cyto.” She said, staring up, “In the mean time, we may need some allies.” The crystal began to glow orange, the power of control was being used by the manipulative girl, and elsewhere... Holly was curled over, her eyes raising to stare at 13 and Enix as the image of them blurred, she screamed then, grabbing her head and curling up again. “It hurts!” She screamed, her blue crystal seemed very dull, as it’s opposite clashed with it. Holly screamed again, but it stopped abruptly, her eyes slamming closed as her breathing remained labored. She stood taller, letting off a soft breath, before opening her eyes, which didn’t have any green any longer. They were a orange, far distanced look. Enix was confused, but turned to 13 quickly, “We need to tie her down!” She called, “Her mind isn’t her own right now!” 13 didn't wait for another order. He lunged at Holly, tackling her with the last of his strength and ignoring the fiery pain of his chest. "Sorry!" He whispered sharply as he felt her hit the ground. Cyto grumbled. "That wasn't the implied question, sis. Why did you help me?" His tail wiggled anxiously, eager to feed.

“I need Night to bring back a loved one.” Rose said, eyes narrowed in focus. “To do that, I need to destroy the power that sent him away.”
Holly hit the ground, but rolled away with effort, her magic stained orange as she pushed him away. She then grabbed the necklace and crystal, and grabbed her knife. Her hand raised to drop the crystal, shatter it, but her body didn’t move past that.
Enix used her telekinesis to hold Holly in place, “We need to knock her out,” she strained to say. “Before she breaks that, it’s her lifeline, and before she...” Enix trailed off, the knife already had some blood on it, not a lot, but the tiny scratch on her neck from the knife was bleeding, right over old scars from previous deaths. But the knife no longer moved, it just hovered in her hand from making more damage. “Before she...hurts herself.”
(Deductive reasoning helps realize that motive.)

"There are people who do that. That's why I don't have to," he replied, his gaze darkening somewhat. He didn't mention the specifics on the reason why he didn't just get a job. --- Blink's breath caught in his throat. "Me..?" He swallowed, his mind flashing back through the short time he knew her. She had feelings for him? Blink took a step back. This was not good. "You can't love me..." he denied, just as he does everyday of his life. He was grateful for the mask he wore, helping to mask the many emotions flowing through him. --- (Chaos: I hope it's okay if I dropped Ollie at Robin's house. :3)

"There are people who do that. That's why I don't have to," he replied, his gaze darkening somewhat. He didn't mention the specifics on the reason why he didn't just get a job. "But that defeats the whole purpose of the human body-"Brois paused."Almost the whole purpose."He finished.He breathed out through his mouth and slightly made his right sleeve white."Why must you try so hard not to try?"

Ray was no longer looking at the stranger, so he didn't notice his sleeve turn white. He was sitting up again, staring at the licking flames as he spoke. "You're saying that work is the purpose of life. But doesn't that sound rather bland? Work, eat, sleep and that's all your life entails. What do you get from it? You work, eat and sleep one day so you can work, eat and sleep the next." Ray sighed. He had pondered this a lot in his teenage years. "I'm not saying I'm any better. They do what they want, and I do what I want." Was this what he wanted? He didn't know. Maybe he didn't even care anymore. Light from the fire flicked across his face, not that he could feel the warmth from it. He only came here to look at the flames. There was something enticing in the way they danced.

"No,but it's not sitting around all the time either."Boris answered.

"I know," Ray sighed. There were some things he did other than sit around, but the list was so small and simple, that he didn't bother to mention it. "But what does it matter? The world will keep going on whether I'm standing or sitting."
(Man, Ray is kind of depressing. ^^')

(Lol,he sounds like he'd rather not be here)
"But what if it didn't?"Boris asked.He had asked himself and others multiple times over."What if your being alive keeps the world from stopping?"
(I see this guy as the voice of reason no one wants to listen to but after words when you've already done it you're like:If only I'd listened to that nagging voice!"Lol)

"Then I might as well stay alive. I have been for the last thirty years," Ray huffed, giving the stranger a side glance.

"You can't love me..." he denied, just as he does everyday of his life. He was grateful for the mask he wore, helping to mask the many emotions flowing through him (OwO) "I don't know that I love you. But Blink, you're the first person I like more than myself." She persisted. The pain was harder as he denied. And as Hornet opened her mouth to speak once more, it was enough to be unable to voice herself. She passed out a moment later.

Well, let's get him back later. In the meantime, getting me to full power will ensure victory." For himself, of course, but no need to specify~! "We need to find 13, or find Carnal, this world's version of me." The boy rolled forward. "Holly. Listen to us." Again on his feet, he approached her, arms outstretched to take the knife while Enix was holding her.

Rose growled in frustration, her eyes glowing orange as she used the power, “Yes, yes we will, but we need to take a break too,” she let go of the link, sighing.
Holly was held up in the air by Enix, body floating, strained as she inched to move, tears starting to run down her face, “I can’t!” She struggled to say, but then, it stopped, her eyes returning to green as the tension seemed to leave, and the knife was taken by 13. Enix settled her down, frowning. But Holly was catatonic at the moment, curling up, “Please, I’m sorry, don’t hurt me.” She whispered, but her bearings seemed to come back, as she grabbed her head, “What just happened?”
(And timeskip whenever?)

(Maybe days later, on a New Moon? There’s...something I want to explore :3.)
Corona grinned at him, “Do you know how to bake cookies? Have you ever even had a cookie?” She questioned, her childlike innocence was endearing for the teen girl, as many others were not as sweet.

Anyways, one of my characters losses their abilities on New Moons, but I’ve never gotten to explore it before. It’s a newer progression :3.)

(Hmm, we do timeskips all the time, but if the others wish to, they can. Nothing really plot enhancing is planned(but still could occur if wanted).)
Anubis stared at the girl, before him, her eyes narrowed in a glare. They were on a rooftop, it seemed, and while she was shorter then him, she was scary.
“What do you mean, you lost it?” She questioned, blue eyes narrowed dangerously, “You stole it!” She huffed, “How in the great galaxy did you lose it?”
“Look, Bastet, I never said I lost it-“ Anubis started, frowning as he backed up.
Bastet made a sound of disbelief.
“I just misplaced it?”
“That’s the same as losing!” Bastet retorted back.
And the two went on arguing.

And Bastet and Anubis have been stealing a lot, but not from the needy or even the rich. They haven’t stolen money, but weapons and tech.)

Isaac sat there, upon the lip of the building, listening to the bickering. He then yawned loudly to get their attention. "Y'know, this relationship you two have seems a bit strained. I'm a good psychiatrist, not licensed but practicing." His joke was followed by a luscious grin.

“Oh great.” Bastet drawled, “Another visitor.”
Anubis laughed lightly, but her glare silenced him. His gaze turned serious, “Why does it matter so much to you, Mage?”
Bastet rolled her eyes at the nickname, but looked sad a moment, “You know why, Swift.”
Anubis sighed, throwing the object back at her, the golden bell, a grin on his face.
Bastet huffed, “If there wasn’t a witness, I would kill you.”
Anubis laughed, turning to Isaac, “Welcome!”

"Ah. So one-sided, I see." He muttered, shrugging. Not his business. "Hello, yes. I'm here on an urgent mission, that is two fold. The first is actually something I need your help with." He hopped to his feet. "Cyto. The monster. Can you tell me anything about him?"

Anubis frowned, eyes falling back to Bastet.
Bastet was frozen in place for a moment, “I...Yes, I know he can drain powers, works with Rose, I don’t know her last name, or real name.” She said, frowning deeper, “I’m sorry, but is that all?”

"You know nothing of their motives? Perhaps their goals as of right now?" Isaac had a general idea already, but any information was welcomed.

Blink stared at Hornet in pain on the bed. Her words prying at the door of locked memories. Images flashed through his mind's eye. A silver haied girl, a boy's clenched fist and a confident smirk, another thin boy with deadly slingshot aim. He could almost hear them, calling his name. Blink... Blink. Blink! The images were replaced by Hornet struggling to speak. Alarm struck through him like a lightning bolt. When she passed out, he was back at her bedside. He peeled back his mask, revealing his messy hair and frantic blue eyes. "Hornet! Don't you dare die on me!" He reached forwards to feel for a pulse. He let out a breath of relief. She was alive, but the heartbeat was much too fast. "Hornet! Stay with me!" When she didn't answer, he started to mutter to himself. "I should never have agreed to this... Zed should have known better. I should have known better! Nothing has changed...." He reached forwards to pull Hornet's mask from her face. How did Zed's story go again? What exactly did he have to do to save her? Zed's stories were often a far cry from accurate, but it was the only chance he had. For once, he wished he had actually listened to the annoying man. "I'm sorry... I thought I could change things if I tried a different tactic." He shook his head. "But once again, I caused suffering to-" his throat caught. A friend? Since when had she become a friend? Only bad things ever happened to his friends. He took hold of her hand, a great sadness in his gaze. "I- I care for you too, Hornet. So please... Don't die on me." His heart beat like a wild thing in his chest, and he closed his eyes to calm it.
