Void Rift (rp) - Intermission

Abigail starts screaming out of fear, before fainting of her own accord.

Katie dives into her pool to avoid the same fate.

"Uhh, ooookaaaaaay." Stephanie says, backing away slowly.

Katie's pool splashes, yet nothing can be seen entering it.

 

Rineth backs up.
"Ihra, get her up. Cultural differences are... Bigger than expected."
Ihra stares into her staff's crystal, and Abigail slowly regains consciousness.

 

Abigail gets up, a little woozy, before realizing what happened.

"YOU...YOU TRIED TO BITE ME IN HALF! I TOLD YOU, I TOLD YOU ARTEMIS!" Abigail screams, backing away from Rineth.

"Abigail, he wasn't trying to bite you in half." Artemis says calmly.

"SCREW IT! WATER ISN'T AS BAD AS BEING BITTEN IN HALF!" Abigail screams, diving into Katie's pool; loud hissing can be heard.

Stephanie shifts a little closer to Artemis.

 

"She... does realize that the way my teeth line up, I literally can't bite her into two? Ihra..."
"Yeah, yeah."
Abigail's teleported on the ground, and Ihra starts healing her. (again)

 

" What? Who goes? Do you have a pass?" He asked as soon as he heared a voice, and begin to doze off.
Shortly after, Arisius wakes up just because the voice was unfamiliar, he opened his eyes, somewhat (OOC:I always wake up with blurry vision, just me?) And saw a...

 

"It's the ground. And it loves taking hits."
I shout as I soar towards the ground, having the orbs follow me.
Once I get near the ground, I curve so I'm flying along ground like I might be skidding.
I make sure not to fly over any hills that might be geysers.

 

Abigail, despite being severely weakened, starts scrambling away from Rineth.

"Don't use your magic to try and eat me!" Abigail says weakly, coughing, "I did nothing wrong, alright? I don't want to die!"

"Abigail, he's not trying to kill you." Artemis says, trying to calm Abigail.

Abigail manages to get to her feet, and starts to run back to the pool; only to fall to the ground.

"Can't...die...yet..." Abigail says weakly, crawling away. Abigail ends up falling unconscious, a good distance away from the water.

 

I look even more confused than before. Several orbs smash into the ground, exploding, but there is still a sizable number following you. "I'll be back in a moment" I say, disappearing into the ground.

I sprout near Abigail. "Hissssssss" I say, grinning, before descending back into the ground, but not before torching a vine about three feet away from her that I grew.

I sprout back up.

 

I rise off the ground a bit more and hover.
I put my sword up in a guard-like fashion, preparing for the orbs, and planning them to hit my sword.

 

Several orbs hit your sword, exploding on contact. Others are rushing towards you from different angles. "You can't dodge...what you can't see!" I exclaim, casting a spell of fog around you.

 

"Seriously, what else do you have? Just use it all now, get the surprise out of the way."
I fly up farther into the sky.
Using one foot to hover, I use the other foot to start spinning myself (Not just kicking around, actually using the rocket).
I keep my sword up in the guard.
Now, I'm spinning fairly fast, pushing a bit of the fog away, but also producing an effective guard with my sword.

 

Abigail remains unconscious, unsurprisingly.

 

The orbs keep on charging towards you, exploding upon contact with your sword. The fog disappears. "Why would I? If I would, in case we would have to fight against each other in different circumstances, you wouldn't know all my attacks." I respond, summoning a water spear. I take careful aim, and will it to charge straight towards your foot.

 

I drop in altitude, about 3 feet down (Mind you, I'm 6 feet tall).
"Just because I'm spinning very fast doesn't mean I can't still see motion."
I shout.

 

Damn it... I think. Checking for my vials, I see I left them at home. I jump after the dragon. "I am coming!"

OOC: Repost...

 

Silence.
---
"Uhm... I don't know! She was on your shoulder. Ehm, Zeth, Kal, find her!"

"Since when do we listen to-" Khione turns into a dragon and snarls. "Okay okay."

A strong wind picks up, and Zethes and Kalais dissolve into it. The wind changes courses rapidly, as the two search the area.
---
"Please do."

 

"I tried seeking forgiveness once, long ago..."
He looks bitter... and almost sad.
"... but in the end, I was forced to change my path. I can't change my fate, that is impossible."

OOC: Part of you is still in a statue in the cage at Arnold's side. When he turned into monsters, that statue just got absorbed into him.

 

@FireMage I did reply.

"What's her deal? She's insane both near-death and not. I was biting down all the way, that's what triggers the sleep-inducing vapor to be mixed with my breath. She's not in half. I can't bite her in half."
Ihra continues healing Abigail.

...nothing out of the norm.
It's stupid early, though. The sun hasn't even come over the horizon yet.

"The funny thing about fate is that it's only right if you play along. The harder you fight it, the harder it fights back. Compliance isn't the only option."

A familiar dragon can be heard moving through a portal.
"Sh- uh... Heeey... Where's your rider?"
I back up nervously.
-----
Turns out Avis is just on Khione's back.
"Girl, you scared me! How'd you even... Don't do that again, please..."
-----
"Good luck."
A portal opens up below the dragon, and he finds himself behind Vesius, back in Brisingr.

 

"She just has a few trust issues. Not only that, but, well, you're a huge dragon. I'd be concerned if she wasn't scared if you were biting her." Artemis says calmly.

A slight purple sheen around Stephanie indicates a shield, "I'm sure she'll act a little more normal if you can form a friendship with her." Stephanie says, maintaining her shield regardless.

Pairs of ice and vine hands carry Abigail's unconscious body closer to Ihra.

 

"My apologies... I only know what I've done in the past."

Ihra continues the healing process, but some hesitation is evident as Abigail is moved closer to her.
