Void Rift (rp) - Intermission

"You shouldn't make assumptions about 'Toys' you don't know about," I retort, "Watch of True Time, hint in the name."

 

Bowie should be sitting right there on the little bed

 

As the wyvern falls, its wings seem to extend slightly. Then definitely.
The wyvern's wings, while still strained seem to be slowing it down, though not enough to avoid what seems to about to be a fatal landing.
Xephyr immediately catches up due to this and grabs Hythania, who has stopped screaming by now but is still very shocked.
A few seconds later, the wyvern smashes into the ground. A cloud of dust is created by the impact.

 

"Well, I know what it does. I saw you use it once before. Now, I recommend you stand down... I just killed you in every other timeline, so I recommend you stand down and stop forcing me to keep you alive."

Bowie fixed himsef to your shoulder on the way out of the cave.

"I'm sorry... I didn't mean to scare you."

Xephyr circles to slow her descent, then tries to get a better view of the wyvern.
"Is... is it dead...?"

 

Oh.
Lazarus places bowie on the little bed.

 

Something jumps at you from the side, but it disintegrates as it hits the edge of a tunnel.
"Now, keep walking, and donmt try to run through the edge of the tunnel. Unless you want to end up like that, at least."

 

"Except, my dear, that's impossible. You may have killed my present selves in other timelines as an invading party, but there's still more of me." I explain, grinning, "My choice to stand down or not creates two timelines minimum; both of which contain an alive 'Me'. My choices of what to do, such as attacking you or not, create more."

I give a condescending smile, "I would've thought you'd know that," I say, "And if you kill me, I can assure you Artemis will be less than pleased. Isn't it lucky she didn't focus on Ihra when she lost control?"

 

"I don't believe in luck."
The watch disappears from your hand.
"I believe in experience. Now, would crushing this by chance limit your options?"
She smirks, claw firmly around the watch.

 

"OH. WELL THAT'S NICE."
Lazarus closes the backpack, neatly fitting Bowie inside. He's done this before.

 

"Well, since we're faster and outside is slower, you'd be more smashed than exploded. Still, just a suggestion."

You still can't see the end of the forest, and you're starting to get tired.

 

I smile.

I appear behind Vei, the watch held in my hand. It seems to glow.

"I told you I like to keep backups." My other self says.

"You can crush that watch all you want; it's no longer the Alpha." I say, "The Alpha can never be destroyed, it simply repairs itself." I say, before disappearing in a blue flash.

The watch Vei holds seems to have lost it's magic.

 

"When/where is the end?"

 

"The beauty of being one with time...

...is that all your tricks? Because it seems..."
The watch disappears in your hand again. The Alpha Watch sits just under the tip of her blade.
"...that I'm getting bored of killing you."
You have visions of her killing you, rotating every millionth of a second. They don't seem to stop.

"Now, when dealing with infinite things, remember one thing..."

She smiles, fading.

"You've only walked a mile. Three more."

 

Another me stands behind the frozen Ihra, the blade against her neck.

"It's a shame whilst we were conversing you didn't bother to save her, your daughters now dead; good job." I say.

"Of course, I've met my fair share of users of time magic over my years, and I know their tricks. Everything's already happened, and is going to happen, while it never will. Choose your next steps carefully; I am a genocidal demon."

"And don't bother trying to keep the watch from me. I get it back. I won't tell you how, however, because you might want to try and save your daughter by asking me to cancel her death."

I grin, my eyes flashing.

 

OCC: Okay... Can you please not basically destroy the world by killing Ihra...? Or by making Ihra mad/scared? Or turning Vei into a maniac? I feel like your taking this a little far for seemingly no reason whatsoever.

 

OOC: Everything's already happened, and is about to, but it never will. *wink*

 

"That's quite interesting. You know, you Draconians certainly have a lot of power that you can tap in at will, and I feel like I made some good allies. I certainly do not want to be fighting against your wife at any given time. Well, if you excuse me, I have some catching up to do."

I run over to the trio. "So, what's going on?" I ignore Abigail's claws and Artemis's glares completely.

 

"A... MILE? That's like... customary system... Woah... That's like, uh, two kilometers, right?"
(OOC; I wish we used the metric system in America...)

 

"What's going on with you." Abigail says, preparing her claws.

"Are you feeling alright, Rob?" Artemis asks.

"You were acting a little weird." I say.

 

"Nothing's going on with me, I'm feeling pretty fine, and I was acting normally." Suddenly, it strikes the three of you that I evaded your questions from before I meditated.
