Void Rift (rp) - Intermission

"Ah whatever." I take a seat, still somehow keeping my sword drawn, and pull out a teapot and a cup . I pour some water into it and place a teabag inside. I then close the top and hold it above Abigail's body. "Might as well take advantage of the predicament I'm in, even if this is all a hallucination."

 

"This is no hallucination." A voice echoes from above.

Vines erupt from around Abigail's body and grab your hand, before snaking around your arm; gripping tightly.

Vines wrap around Abigail and drag her beneath the ground.

 

"Hey! Do you mind? I'm trying to make some tea here!" I am largely apathetic to all thats happening around me, as if I don't want to do anything except make tea. "Hey! My fire source! Could you not?!" I switch the teapot to my other hand and place it on the ground. I then attempt, but not whole-heartedly, to shake the vines off my arm.

OOC: I have no idea what's going on right now anymore hahahah

 

The vines continue to snake around your arm, as more vines grow and wrap themselves around your other limbs. The vines grip is rather strong, and painful.

"Do you have no respect for Abigail!?" The voice echoes, vines tightening.

OOC: You've annoyed Artemis; this is what happens when you annoy Artemis.

 

"Of course I have respect for her. Besides, I was gonna give her some tea after she woke up since she didn't drink the tea I gave to her earlier." I still make no attempt to break through the vines, other than tugging on them effortlessly. "Now, could you please let me go?" Again, I am rather apathetic.

OOC: no, as in I mean the whole thing so far. All I know, is that there was some kind of standoff and then some kind of distortion of view and reality, and then Abigail tried to kill me, and now Im being attacked by Artemis.

 

The vines lift you off the ground, before throwing you; releasing you in the process.

"You were going to give her 'Tea', sure." The voice echoes in a doubtful tone.

Abigail rubs her neck, she seems rather confused as to what just happened.

Noticing Rob, she takes an offensive stance, glaring. A thick fog begins to float through the forest.

 

"Exactly. You know, I make a pretty good tea. Its a shame you were still healing when I gave some out. As Ihra described it: 'Tastes like Flower Water'" I simply get up to take a seat on the ground, but I don't get up and go into a defensive or attack position, I just simply sit there, looking insane.

OOC: Of course though, Rob is doing some plan formulating in his mind. He isn't going to literally just act insane as people start trying to kill him.

 

Abigail glares at you.

The fog thickens, and begins to cloud around Abigail and Rob, making it harder to see. A figure darts through the fog, firing an arrow just above Rob's head, before jumping up a nearby tree.

Abigail switches to a more defensive stance; observing her surroundings, ready to move if something happens.

 

"Can you please stop trying to kill me or paralyze me?" I say to no one in particular. I then draw my sword, only sheathe it back as if I just defeated someone in a second. "Also, Abigail, can you tell Aj to stop being a crystal already?" My voice is filled with the tone of someone insane.

 

Abigail gives a wry smile, "If you say so!" She says with an evil tone.

Abigail opens her wheel of crystals on her right guantlet, and switches to my shadow crystal, taking it out. The crystal seems to emanate darkness, and Abigail holds it in her palm and focuses; closing her eyes.

The crystal dissipates, darkness flowing into Abigail. When she opens her eyes, they're no longer hot orange; but blood red.

Abigail tilts her head, grinning evilly.

 

... Staring into the point of a glowing dagger, held around in front of the now-possessed Abigail.

"I really was hoping not to have to take sides, but if you insist..."

 

"Oh, another one of those 'friendly person suddenly becomes enraged and becomes evil' cliche" I shake my head. "I've seen too much of this cliche already."

I look at Lyphux and say "Woah now, maybe you should just take a seat and relax with me." I look around, looking confused. "Are we in the real world yet or not?"

 

Abigail grabs the dagger by the blade and pulls it away with great strength.

"You said you didn't want Aj to be a crystal anymore; so I obeyed." Abigail says with a dark tone.

 

"True, true. I can see your logic there" I nod approvingly. "Now, if you don't mind, maybe you'd stop being evil? You do know what always happens in those stories, right?" I still look both insane and apathetic

 

"Except this isn't a story." Abigail says, walking toward Rob.

"This is reality." Abigail continues, glaring at Rob.

"Where death carries consequence." Abigail says, staring Rob in the eyes. Her red eyes begin to glow lightly.

 

I let go without resistance, but...
It sears the darkness around it, causing quite a bit of pain.
"Last I heard, shadows aren't too fond of light."

 

"I know that." In a single fluid motion, I jump up, draw my sword, and slash it across Abigail's face, not intending to kill, but to cause pain. I sheathe my sword and sit down again, still looking insane and apathetic.

________________________________

"Lyphus, Abigail is both darkness and fire. We have weapons that damage her. I have my ice sword and you have your dagger of light." I whisper this silently.

 

The world shifts slightly to the left. The illusion is lifted.
"And that's why I, Luphyx, specialize in light magic."
I grin at Rob.
"That was a hefty slash at the air."

 

"But I'm not a shadow." Abigail says, "I'm a Flame Guardian."

"Bad Choice." Abigail says, before slamming her claws into the ground. The whole area seems to be getting hotter.

 

I smile. "Finally that illusion is gone. My facade of insanity was actually starting to get to me." I laugh, before standing up. "Though, might I ask, what was all that trouble for? And what would you have done if I did end up doing something like...cutting myself up to be roasted in a barbecue...?" I say that last part with a grin.

I look at Abigail, and then at Luphyx curiously. "I thought Abigail was an illusion" I whisper to Luphyx.
