The Spawn of Astreiya

[Saturday November 8th, 3:33 AM
Lake Elsinore, Detective Murdoc's Office]
[9:41:48 AM] Omniance: Lucas: He opens his eyes, he's laying in a dark room. He puts his hand to his forehead as he sits up. The room he's in is very dark, appearing similar to the Isaac rooms they've seen early, but it looks stranger, darker somehow. As he stands he rubs his eyes for a moment before there's a sharp sting in his chest. He drops his hands to grasp at his chest, and as he moves them from his eyes Emir is standing in front of him with a dark smile, his silver sword thrust through Lucas's heart.
[9:49:48 AM] Arbi: Emir: Never would I have guessed that the boy I was going to kill at that party wasn't just some pitiful dog...but a hellhound, who breathes fire from his maw. He twists the thin sword through Lucas's chest to hurt him more. You may have surprised me before but I'd like to see you try to breathe fire again with a punctured lung...
[9:54:02 AM] Omniance: Lucas: He tries to say something, but it's like a wheeze. He falls off of the sword and onto the ground. After a moment he coughs and rolls over. He grasps his chest and a he can feel the wound closing as his heart begins beating once more. He coughs again and rolls away from Emir onto his feet, slowly standing up. I'm begining to like these creepy dreams if it means I get to take out spoiled rich kids like you. He pats his chest and smirks slightly. Only a hole in his shirt.
[9:55:38 AM] Arbi: Emir: What? Impossible... He takes a step back, trying to figure out how he healed when he should have died from his sword. I pierced your heart...
[9:56:37 AM] Omniance: Lucas: Time to burn you again. He takes a deep breath and then blasts out a pillar of flames from his mouth towards the boy.
[10:00:04 AM] Arbi: Emir: His eyes widen and he raises his other arm, conjuring a large shield to protect him from the hellfire. He holds it steady but quickly realizes the shield is melting, No! He lets go of the shield and rolls to the side, the shield getting consumed in fire. He gets back on his feet with his sword up, although it's obviously shaking. His tone of voice shows both fear and anger. ...What are you?
[10:01:44 AM] Omniance: Lucas: Smoke burns from his mouth like when he's smoking a cigarette, I don't know yet -but I think I'm starting to like it. He blasts another plume of flames at Emir.
[10:04:03 AM | Edited 10:04:56 AM] Arbi: With nothing but a sword to protect him the fires engulf Emir. His screams of agony can only be heard for a second before his flesh and bones alike turn to ash.
[10:09:58 AM] Omniance: Lucas: He's breathing heavily, like he just ran a mile non-stop. He coughs a few times, his mouth dry and tasting like ash. After a moment he turns away and sees himself, still laying in the spot he was before, sleeping soundly. The sleeping version of him is still wounded, hands full of splinters, chest cut and slashed from Emir's sword. Lucas tilts his head slightly and watches as the wounds slowly close. In the darkness above his body he can see a faint vague figure with many arms pulling nearly invisible silvery thread through his wounds. The creature is only there for a second before it fades. Lucas shakes his head, sitting up, confused as he's still in the dream, and now he was apparently laying down, despite having just seen himself from a few feet away laying in the place he is now. ...What the fuck? Emir's cindering remains are still sitting in the corner.
[10:11:35 AM] Omniance: Meanwhile...
[10:12:54 AM] Omniance: Yuri opens his eyes, he's sitting in a dark room, which looks like a 2x2 room from Isaac. There's desks and chairs strewn about it though, they look like dusty and broken versions of the kind at school.
[10:15:09 AM | Edited 10:15:44 AM] Arbi: Yuri: He looks around and knows he's back in the hellish world he goes to when he wants to change his power when he sleeps, but he looks confused as he didn't want to this time. He stands up, thinking something might attack him like before. What?... The desks and chairs in the room are new, something he hasn't seen before in the dream or in binding of isaac.
[10:16:16 AM] Omniance: There's a sound of a chair being dragging across the floor behind him, it screeches loudly in the silence.
[10:17:13 AM | Edited 10:20:27 AM] Arbi: Yuri: He quickly turns around to see what's making the screeching sound.
[10:21:20 AM] Omniance: Odie: He's dragging a chair behind him. He's speaking in a demonic language, but Yuri can understand him. You think you can save your friend? He lifts the chair and rips it apart, the metal legs ripping apart and bending into two twisted mace-like chunks of metal and broken plastic. I will slaughter you now before you ever even see him again.
[10:22:48 AM | Edited 10:24:20 AM] Arbi: Yuri: He looks at the twisted metal weapons in his hands, more impressed than afraid. So, you're the demon that possessed Odie...
[10:27:58 AM] Omniance: Odie: A pair of black bone-like appendages rip through his back, their barbed appendages hook into Odie's face, shoulders, and hips. They then pull with all of their might, spliting Odie's skin down the middle, revealing a slick grey and almost featureless feminine humanoid form. Her eyes glow a deep emerald green in the darkness. The bone-like appendages spread out behind her, using Odie's skin in order to appear like tattered wings. Time to do what humans do, and die.
[10:30:08 AM] Arbi: Yuri: I'm right here. He just stands there, waiting for the demon to try and kill him.
[10:31:11 AM | Edited 10:31:41 AM] Omniance: She leaps forwards swinging the twisted maces at Yuri. Though she looks imposing she's not very large, and is actually shorter than Yuri, not counting her "wings".
[10:35:38 AM] Arbi: Yuri: His muscles suddenly pulse with superstrength and he kicks up one of the tables with his foot alone, grabbing it and throwing it so hard at the demon that all the pieces bend and shatter off on contact.
[10:37:26 AM] Omniance: She's knocked away, and then looks at Yuri, slightly confused by his apparent strength. A storm of demonic locusts blast out from her fleshy wings and race towards Yuri.
[10:40:10 AM] Arbi: Yuri: He looks at how many locusts are summoned, realizing quickly that it's too many for him to fight at once. He picks up one of the chairs and flings it hard through the swarm and at the demon's left wing. When the demon recovers and looks back at him and the locusts reassemble he's gone.
[10:41:32 AM] Omniance: She lets out a gutteral growl, looking around in confusion. Show yourself little boy. She turns, the locusts dispersing as she scans the room with her emerald eyes.
[10:45:05 AM] Arbi: Yuri: He takes a step to the side to grab the leg of another desk, expecting to turn visible when he does but stops when he notices he can still move while invisible. This new power causes him to smile as ideas rush through his head. He slowly looks back at the demon.
[10:46:18 AM] Omniance: She slams her maces into the ground and they light up with frost. WHERE ARE YOU BOY!?
[10:53:27 AM | Edited 10:57:18 AM] Arbi: An invisible Yuri firmly plants his foot on the back of the demon as he grabs onto her wings, pulling back on them with all his strength. The skin, muscles and bones make loud sounds as he rips them off. The force of him pulling them off knocks the demon forward onto the ground. When she tries to turn back to look at him he's standing right behind her, he grabs the back of her head. The brute strength is so powerful that the grip alone makes it feel like the demons head is about to bend inwards.
Yuri: Hey. He gives her a smile that lasts for a second before slamming her head down into the ground, although it doesn't hurt as much as the wings being ripped off what follows does. A clenched fist slams down into the back of the demon's head, causing her head to go down several inches into the ground making a tiny crater.
[10:55:05 AM] Omniance: Her body twitches slightly several times before going limp. A blood of black blood radiating outwards from her face-down head.
[11:02:55 AM] Omniance: After a moment Yuri can see a sort of shimmer ahead of him. A massive spider-like creature hanging from above is hovering over "Odie's" body, barely visible as it's using the same invisiblity as Yuri. He can here a sort of whisper coming from it before it turns and crawls back up into the darkness out of sight.
[11:03:59 AM | Edited 11:05:43 AM] Arbi: Yuri: He tilts his head and looks up as the spider-like being vanishes into the darkness. What the hell?...
[11:04:40 AM] Omniance: There's a sound of an alarm clock that wakes him up. He and his brother are laying on the floor in Detective Murdoc's office.
[11:04:59 AM] Omniance: Lucas: He groans slightly.
[11:06:18 AM] Omniance: Detective Murdoc: He's holding the clock right next to Lucas's head, like an inch from his ear. You two sleep like the dead. He pulls the alarm clock away and turns off the ringing. It's almost noon, if you want a ride back home it's right now or nothin, I got things to do today.
[11:06:53 AM] Omniance: Lucas: He slowly sits up and yawns slightly, looking for his brother to see if he's up yet.
[11:08:33 AM] Arbi: Yuri: He sits up at the same time as his brother and looks at him at the same time. I had a dream with Odie's demon in it...
[11:08:50 AM] Omniance: Lucas: What? He quickly remembers the strange dream he had.
[11:10:00 AM] Arbi: Yuri: He nods. But...everything there was a lot different with this place. Darker...with nowhere else to go.
[11:10:50 AM] Omniance: Lucas: I had a dream kind of like that... I incinerated that kid from the party... He stretches and stands up. I think my... "Sleep" power is stronger.
[11:11:12 AM] Omniance: Detective Murdoc: Eh? He's looking at the two of them in a bit of confusion.
[11:11:46 AM] Arbi: Yuri: He looks at the detective. What time is it?...
[11:12:08 AM] Omniance: Detective Murdoc: 11:40.
[11:13:00 AM] Arbi: Yuri: Didn't we promise mom we'd be home before 10 in the morning?...
[11:13:20 AM] Omniance: Lucas: He sighs. ...Damn it.
[11:14:40 AM | Edited 11:16:32 AM] Omniance: About twenty minutes later they're walking up to their house with their sleeping bags, having been dropped off at Joel's house by the Detective. Their mom's car isn't in the front. Lucas unlocks the door and goes in.
[11:16:03 AM] Omniance: Yasmine: She's standing at the base of the stairs. Mom's super pissed at you. You were supposed to go with her to get the oil changed and help her with Christmas She blesses herself as she says "Christmas", doing the sign of the cross. shopping.
[11:17:12 AM] Arbi: Yuri: Why do you do that when you say Christmas? He looks tired and worn out just by being in her presence.
[11:17:40 AM] Omniance: Yasmine: Because it's our Lord and Savior's birthday.
[11:17:53 AM] Omniance: Lucas: No church has ever told you to do that.
[11:18:04 AM] Omniance: Yasmine: It needs to be done.
[11:18:18 AM] Omniance: Lucas: He wonders why they came back home at all.
[11:18:23 AM] Arbi: Yuri: He sighs and walks past her to go upstairs.
[11:19:01 AM] Omniance: Lucas: He follows his brother up stairs. We'll have to think of something to tell mom when she gets home. I don't remember her saying anything about christmas shopping...
[11:21:14 AM] Arbi: Yuri: He remembers them leaving out the door yesterday and him running back in to grab his sleeping bag. His mom telling him about christmas shopping and asking him to tell Lucas. He remembers forgetting to tell him. Yeah...me neither.
[11:22:12 AM] Omniance: Lucas: After they get into their room he drops all the stuff he's carrying and sits on the bed. We need to think of how we can get out of here by 11 tonight. We have to be all the way at the Prince's by 12.
[11:24:20 AM] Arbi: Yuri: He falls down on his comfy bed, having missed it since they slept on the floor at the detective's house. If the High Priestess knocks on our door tonight and forces it open while we're gone...
[11:25:00 AM] Omniance: Lucas: And mom is apparently already angry with us, so we can't make up another sleep-over excuse.
[11:26:44 AM] Arbi: Yuri: One of us is going to have to stay here...just incase someone needs us... He sits up and looks at Lucas. Either of us.
[11:27:13 AM] Omniance: Lucas: Wait, what? You're not serious are you?
[11:27:45 AM | Edited 11:29:30 AM] Arbi: Yuri: If mom's angry at us she's definitly gonna ground us. When that happens only one of us is gonna be able to sneak out tonight and I think you know who that is.
[11:30:55 AM | Edited 11:31:31 AM] Arbi: Yuri: The least you can do while I'm gone is pretend to be me so I don't get grounded, for sneaking out, for an entire month and you don't get grounded for not telling them I did.
[11:31:16 AM] Omniance: Lucas: Yeah but, how could I pull of fooling mom into thinking both of us are here, she's always able to tell which one of us is which.
[11:32:16 AM] Arbi: Yuri: The High Priestess will be easy to trick but...you're gonna have to figure out how to trick mom.
[11:33:26 AM] Omniance: Lucas: He sighs. We've only fooled her like... Twice. Ever. He shakes his head. Wait a minute, who says you get to go. I don't want to be stuck here all night while you're fighting some demon!
[11:34:20 AM] Arbi: Yuri: I can turn invisible...and I can move while doing it now too. It has to be me.
[11:34:57 AM] Omniance: Lucas: I can... I... Damn it. I don't have enough hair to pretend to be you. He messes up his hair and it doesn't stand up as high.
[11:35:19 AM] Arbi: Yuri: He tosses him his beanie. It's cold anyways.
[11:35:52 AM] Omniance: Lucas: He sighs, falling back on his bed. This is shit.
[11:36:42 AM] Arbi: Yuri: You gotta do it, Lucas. Unless you don't mind me wearing your clothes.
[11:38:30 AM] Omniance: Lucas: He just groans. Last time Yuri wore his cloths he burned a hole in the shirt while he was getting high with Odie and Joel and ended up ripping the shirt off and throwing into into a puddle of mud. A car then apparently ran it over and dragged it for half a mile. You're evil to my clothes...
[11:40:16 AM] Arbi: Yuri: That shirt was really old.
[11:40:27 AM] Omniance: Lucas: That's what made it awesome!
[11:41:05 AM] Arbi: Yuri: He's about to say but stops and nods, smiling. It was pretty awesome.
[11:41:26 AM] Omniance: Lucas: He shoves the beanie onto his head and groans.
[11:43:01 AM] Omniance: Later that night, a few hours after their mom has yelled at them, their dad had given them a look of dissapointment that means they probably won't be getting a car for xmas this year, and the High Priestess tell them that obeying their parents is one of the ten commandments.
[11:44:18 AM] Arbi: Yuri: He has their bedroom door open a crack, he's looking out into the hallway and sees the High Priestess walk into her bedroom and close the door. No one's downstairs. If I'm gonna do this I gotta do it now.
[11:46:09 AM] Omniance: Lucas: Have fun. He says it with obvious contempt. He's sitting on the widow area wearing his brother's stupid beanie, looking unhappy.
[11:47:31 AM] Arbi: Yuri: He whispers. Don't fuck this up. He looks serious as he'll get in more trouble than him if they get caught. He turns invisible and opens the door all the way. The door closes after a moment. The sound of it closing triggers the High Priestess.
[11:48:21 AM] Omniance: Yasmine: The door to her bedroom flies open. You're supposed to be sleeping, we have church tomorrow! She gazes out into the hall.
[11:50:00 AM] Arbi: The hallway is void of Twins.
[11:50:24 AM] Omniance: Yasmine: She seems to smell the air,
[11:50:57 AM] Omniance: Clara: She can be heard from their parent's room. Go to bed Yasmine. There's a light on in their parents room, which means their mom is still up reading.
[11:51:27 AM] Omniance: Yasmina: Her eyes dart back and forth several times before she slowly pulls back into her room and closes the door.
[11:53:42 AM | Edited 11:54:31 AM] Arbi: Yuri: He sighs quietly in relief and looks downstairs. He suddenly remembers their staircase makes sounds when anyone steps on them at night. He mouths the word "Fuck." He thinks for a moment before sighing and sitting down at the top step and annoyingly having to slide down each step to avoid anyone hearing him walking downstairs.
[11:54:51 AM] Omniance: Yasmine: The door to her bedroom opens and she walks passed the stairs and into the bathroom. A moment afterwards she's walking back to her room brushing her hair.
[11:56:20 AM] Arbi: Yuri: He keeps sliding his butt down each step until he reaches the bottom. He looks towards the front door, also remembering it's loud at night. He clenches his fist and goes towards the sliding door that leads to their backyard rembering it makes a lot less sound.
[11:57:09 AM] Omniance: Rocket runs up to him and starts sniffing around him, confused at what's happening. She can smell him, but not see him, and she barks slightly.
[11:57:42 AM] Arbi: Yuri: His eyes widen, he doesn't know what to do.
[11:58:08 AM] Omniance: There's movement above him, as he can hear his mom getting out of bed to inspect what's bothering Rocket.
[12:00:00 PM] Arbi: Yuri: He grabs the nearest toy and rolls the tennis ball towards the kitchen's trash. He knocks the trashcan over after.
[12:00:25 PM] Omniance: Rocket runs over and starts eating out of the trash.
[12:01:12 PM] Omniance: Clara: She's at the bottom of the stairs. Rocket! The dog freezes. No! Bad girl, get away from the trash! She walks around the room, almost brushing up against Yuri as she moves.
[12:01:54 PM] Arbi: Yuri: He freezes as even taking a step might alert her.
[12:02:18 PM] Omniance: Lucas: He calls down. Have you seen my toothbrush?
[12:02:28 PM | Edited 12:02:51 PM] Omniance: Yasmine: You're supposed to be in bed Yuri!
[12:03:13 PM] Omniance: Lucas: I can't find my tooth brush I think I left it at Joel's.
[12:03:38 PM] Omniance: Clara: She picks up the trash and puts everything back into it. She grabs Rocket and lifts her up. Can't you just use your brothers?
[12:03:59 PM] Omniance: Lucas: Lucas doesn't like me using his stuff, he says my breath stinks.
[12:04:09 PM] Omniance: Yasmine: It does.
[12:04:12 PM] Arbi: Yuri: He narrows his eyes.
[12:04:20 PM] Omniance: Lucas: No it doesn't!
[12:04:47 PM] Omniance: Clara: She looks at Rocket, who looks back up at her. I'll find you another one. I have a spare in my room.
[12:05:13 PM] Omniance: Lucas: Why aren't you in bed Yasmine, we have church in the morning.
[12:05:30 PM] Omniance: Yasmine: I-wait, what?! -How dare you!
[12:07:02 PM] Omniance: Clara: There's a sound of Yasmine slamming her door lightly, and she grumbles something as she walks up stairs, carrying the dog with her. As she reaches the top she can be heard. Lucas go to bed. Tell Yuri I'll bring him his tooth brush.
[12:07:16 PM] Omniance: Lucas: I'll give it to him.
[12:08:01 PM] Omniance: Clara: Fine. But then you two sleep and I don't want to hear another word all night! Yuri can hear her foot steps above him as she moves into her own room.
[12:09:32 PM] Arbi: Yuri: He slowly makes his way to the backdoor, grabbing the handle and very slowly opening it so that it doesn't make any sound. He steps outside and closes it after, a rush of cold air touching his skin. He shivers a bit and looks around their backyard.
[12:10:19 PM] Omniance: Clara: She walks back out of her room with an unopened toothbrush. Why are you wearing your brother's shirt?
[12:10:28 PM] Omniance: Lucas: ...What?
[12:10:35 PM] Omniance: Clara: That's Lucas's shirt.
[12:10:46 PM] Omniance: Lucas: He just raises an eyebrow at her. ...What?
[12:11:09 PM] Omniance: Clara: She just sighs. Take the damn tooth brush Yuri, I'm tired.
[12:12:01 PM] Omniance: Lucas: He grabs it out of her hand and slowly closes the door. He looks back and forth, holding the toothbrush up in front of him and whispers to himself. ...What?
[12:13:57 PM] Arbi: About fifteen minutes later Yuri arrives at Joel's house. He was forced to walk all the way as taking his skateboard might get them caught. He walks up to one of the windows and knocks on it.
[12:17:05 PM] Arbi: Joel: He opens his blinds and looks around. His room is cleaner than even Lucas's, on one side of his bedroom is a large bookshelf with many different books he's going to need to become a doctor one day. His computer is the only source of light from his room, on it is an essay he's writing out although the due date isn't for another few months.
[12:17:26 PM] Arbi: Yuri: He ducks down and becomes visible before popping his head out.
[12:18:14 PM] Arbi: Joel: He whispers loudly. Yuri! What are you doing here?
[12:18:36 PM] Arbi: Yuri: I need to use your phone. I need to call a friend of mine.
[12:19:40 PM] Arbi: Joel: He seems nervous again. But why do you need to use my phone? You have a phone at your house. I have seen it many times.
[12:20:43 PM] Arbi: Yuri: I know it's weird but... He looks down thinking for a moment. I promise you I'll get you a lot of weed if you let me use your phone this one time...in the middle of the night.
[12:22:35 PM | Edited 12:23:32 PM] Arbi: Joel: He remembers all the stress he's been through lately, all the academic planning he's been forced to do every night to secure his future. He sighs and grabs the phone in his room, whispering. Okay my friend. He hands him his phone.
[12:22:54 PM | Edited 12:24:02 PM] Arbi: Yuri: He smiles, Thanks, man. He quickly dials the detective's number.
[12:23:45 PM] Omniance: Detective Murdoc: He picks up after a few rings. Private Investigator.
[12:24:18 PM] Arbi: Yuri: It's Yuri. I'm at Joel's house.
[12:24:57 PM] Omniance: Detective Murdoc: You know I can't be your personal driver all the time. He sighs. I'll be there in ten.
[12:25:29 PM] Omniance: Twelve minutes later they're driving up to the Prince's mansion.
[12:26:34 PM] Omniance: Detective Murdoc: How'd you get Joel to do all this for you anyway? He's a nice little jewish kid. You two are a bad influence. He looks tired and his voice is more gravelly than normal, like he wants to be in bed right now.
[12:27:09 PM] Arbi: Yuri: He looks to the side, not sure if he should bring up drugs to the detective. He's just a really good friend.
[12:28:41 PM] Omniance: Detective Murdoc: He yawns slightly and pulls up to the mansion. A tall tanned young man walks up to the car and opens Yuri's door for him. I'm not allowed inside so I'll just sit out here and wait for you I guess... Maybe get some damn sleep...
[12:29:40 PM] Arbi: Yuri: I'll wake you up when I get back. He steps out of the car and looks back at him.
[12:32:39 PM] Omniance: The man shuts the door. He's taller than Yuri, probably about 6', he looks like he's probably from South America. He has long dreadlocks that contrast with the proper tuxedo-like suit and shined boots he's wearing. He motions for Yuri to follow him, and he leads him through the house and into a large day-room, with two-story windows that look out at a terraced courtyard like area. The Prince is standing before them, a cold moonlight pouring in through the long white curtains.
[12:32:57 PM] Omniance: Edward: Without looking back at him he asks. Where is your brother?
[12:34:31 PM] Arbi: Yuri: I had to sneak out to meet you. Lucas had to stay behind to cover for me...
[12:38:45 PM] Omniance: Edward: I suppose it makes little difference, so long as one of you made an appearance to honor our deal. Pity we can't all be in two places at once. There's a loud clatter as the dread locked man shuts the tall wooden doors to the room. We should begin. The floor of the room suddenly burns bright with a white-blue light, the moon itself seeming to reflect off of it like it was silver. After a moment the light pulls inwards and an extravangent design can be seen. The demon will be here soon. I called it earlier, but now it will know exactly where we are. He turns and looks at Yuri. What will you do if your friend cannot be saved?
[12:41:20 PM] Arbi: Yuri: If I can't give him back his body...I'll fucking punch that demon until it spits his soul out.
[12:44:33 PM] Omniance: Edward: You should be ready to lose him, as I am no priest. There's a loud crash somewhere outside behind him, and his bodyguard, the man with the dreadlocks, runs out onto the balcony. The demon is already here.
[12:47:20 PM] Omniance: The bodyguard pulls a black blade from nothing and seems to be searching the area outside for any signs of the creature, but he doesn't seem to find anything.
[12:48:16 PM] Omniance: Edward: Just be sure to keep that in mind, and also keep in mind that I merely agreed to catch the creature, I gave no certainty that I could, or would, help you beyond that much.
[12:49:03 PM] Arbi: Yuri: He narrows his eyes at the Prince, almost feeling like he's been doublecrossed.
[12:49:56 PM] Omniance: Edward: He looks back over his shoulder. Do you see it?
[12:50:22 PM] Omniance: His body guard paces silently back and fourth, not responding.
[12:51:15 PM] Omniance: Edward: He looks back at Yuri. Perhaps this creature is more clever than I first thought. The extravagent design on the floor glows brighter.
[12:52:01 PM] Arbi: Yuri: He steps away from the design when it glows even more and looks around the room, ready for Odie's demon.
[12:52:35 PM] Omniance: After a moment the Prince's body guard is launched through the window and Odie is suddenly in sight.
Odie: He cracks his neck slightly, it makes an almost sickly popping sound. You're stronger now. I can sense that much, Yuri.
[12:54:39 PM] Omniance: Edward: Restrain the creature. His bodyguard jumps to his feet and sprints back out side, but is immediately blasted away by a burst of fire something before he reaches Odie. Edward tilts his head slightly.
[12:55:21 PM] Omniance: Two cultists wearing black masks and crimson robes run into view from the side, standing next to Odie, one of them has a large staff.
[12:56:22 PM] Omniance: Edward: He crosses his arms over his chest very delicately. It appears that it found its summoners this evening. Or perhaps they found it.
[12:56:59 PM] Arbi: Yuri: He takes a few steps towards the cultists, You're the ones that did this to him...
[12:57:35 PM] Omniance: Fire forms in the hand on the cultist that isn't holding a staff, and he pulls out a dagger with the other.
[12:58:40 PM] Omniance: Odie: The boy is mine. Destroy the Prince and his lacky. He steps heavily towards Yuri as the staffed cultist runs towards the recovering body guard, and the one with the dagger circles around to get inside to reach the Prince.
[1:06:58 PM | Edited 1:09:15 PM] Arbi: ...
[1:11:40 PM] Omniance: The Fire Cultist blasts through another window and runs into the room, circling around the prince. He darts forwards and unleashes a torrent of flames that roar outwards in a giant ball of fire.
[1:14:19 PM] Omniance: Edward: He doesn't move, and the ball slams into him and explodes as the cultist seems to detonate it. As the flames clear he's standing there, his hair slightly messed up. He shakes his head very slowly and a wave of flames radiates outwards from him, blasting the cultist away and lighting him on fire. As the cultist rolls and struggles to put himself out, the Prince slowly walks towards him, a large black book appearing from thin air and hovering aroudn him.
[1:17:51 PM] Omniance: The staffed Cultist slams his staff into the bodyguard's blade, who deflects it easily and then kicks the Cultist in the chest. As the cultist reels backwards the Bodyguard throws a knife from his sleeve straight into the cultist's face, hitting him right between the eyes and causing the mask to crack down the middle. As the cultist falls dead a large black truck slams through the wall of the courtyard, and several more cultists pour out.
[1:19:07 PM] Omniance: Edward: He walks outside, Odie and Yuri still staring each other down. He's watching the nxt few cultists run through the court. Can you handle this creature on your own while we deal with these... Runts? He doesn't look to Yuri, but Yuri knows he's speaking to him.
[1:20:30 PM] Arbi: Yuri: He cracks his knuckles, his vision having never left Odie's demon since he got here. Yeah, I'll take care of him.
[1:22:22 PM] Omniance: Edward: Excellent. He de-materializes and a silvery rune at the center of the courtyard glows, and the Prince is suddenly standing amidst the cultists. A long snake-like demon bursts forth from his hand and slams straight through the heart of one of them as the Prince himself then turns and blasts another with a flash of flames. His body guard is already sprinting down the steps to aid him.
[1:22:46 PM] Omniance: Odie: You seem confident, boy. There's an underlying deepness to his voice.
[1:25:23 PM | Edited 1:25:50 PM] Arbi: Yuri: Odie can feel him about to invoke his demon's super strength. I'm more pissed off than anything.
[1:26:17 PM] Omniance: Odie: Anger won't make your friend's soul any easier to free. He opens his mouth and vomits out a stream of demonic spiders towards Yuri.
[1:33:03 PM] Arbi: Yuri: As he walks towards Odie all the muscles throughout his body pulse with super strength but something feels different. Something else inside him starts changing him but he's too pissed off to realize. As he gets closer Odie sees Yuri's skin getting darker until it turns black and his human eyes becoming a demonic pure red with two horns growing out of his head. He turns invisible as his metamorphosis is about to finish.
[1:36:35 PM] Omniance: Odie: He looks around for him as the spiders quickly flow over the floor like black liquid, looking for Yuri. In Odie's hands two large weapons made of ice appear, glowing with a cold light. You can't hide forever... His eyes scan every bit of the small balcony-like area, sounds of cultists fighting the Prince and his bodyguard in the backround.
[1:40:21 PM] Arbi: As Odie is about to finish saying "forever" Yuri becomes visible just as he swings his fist into the side of Odie's face, knocking him back into the floor hard several yards away, the force of the punch causing him to ragdoll.
Yuri: He looks down at the spiders rushing over to him after he attacked their master.
[1:41:36 PM | Edited 1:42:42 PM] Omniance: The spiders leap upwards at him, draping him in webbing that's not strong enough to really slow him down. They bite at his skin, but the demonic flesh is heavily resitant to their poison, and too touch for them to bite deep enough.
[1:44:38 PM | Edited 1:46:12 PM] Arbi: Yuri: He crushes any that get on his face as he walks towards Odie's possesed body on the floor. He webbings rip, doing nothing to slow him before he goes into a full running charge. The spiders all fall off and he goes inivsible again suddenly before he reaches Odie. The sound of his charging footsteps should still be heard but everything goes silent.
[1:47:42 PM] Omniance: Odie: He quickly gets to his feet, his eyes turning that deep emerald green, seeing Odie turn invisible. He throws a sword made of ice at the spot Odie was only a split-second earlier.
[1:48:23 PM] Arbi: The sword of ice flies through the air, hitting nothing before it falls down and shatters.
[1:50:06 PM] Omniance: Odie: He groans in anger. You slink and hide like a child. Odie's skin is beginning to turn a pale grey color, and two lumps are pushing up from his back, underneath his shirt.
[1:51:51 PM] Arbi: Yuri: Maybe that's because I still am a child. He's standing at the balcony visible again. I still live with my parents and I have to wake up and get dressed for school everyday.
[1:53:43 PM] Omniance: Odie: He rushes fowards, the bone-like appendages bursting from his back. Not for much longer.
[1:54:33 PM] Arbi: Yuri: The funny thing about all of this is that you're losing to a child. He taunts the demon more.
[1:55:18 PM] Omniance: Odie: I am DEVOURING ONE RIGHT NOW AND IT TASTES. SO. GOOD. He lunges with one of the freezing blades of ice, straight for Yuri's neck.
[1:58:23 PM | Edited 2:00:24 PM] Arbi: Yuri: He raises his hand up and the blade of ice hits something invisible and breaks apart. Before Odie has a chance to realize what just happened Yuri swings the second invisible stone chair in his other hand straight up into Odie's jaw with all his strength. Not only does it shatter his jaw but it cracks his skull and breaks his neck all at the same time.
[2:00:27 PM | Edited 2:01:13 PM] Omniance: Odie: He slumps to the side and twitches several times. A deep voice, not coming from Odie himself can be heard. You... Think... This is over...? I'm just... The... Beginning...
[2:05:13 PM | Edited 2:13:33 PM] Arbi: Yuri: He walks over to him while he's talking. I know it's over...for you... As the demon is about to respond he steps on the demon's skull, crushing it and causing everything inside of his head to spill out.
[2:06:33 PM] Omniance: The head bursts in black ichor that explodes with a pop, covering the stone floor in chunk of bone and black brain.
[2:11:42 PM] Omniance: Edward: He's suddenly standing beside Yuri, looking over the body. His body guard quickly walks over and picks up Odie's body, the guard's suit burned in a few places. Long strands of black tar drip from where his head was as he carries him. Take it inside. He looks to Yuri. Now we will have to see if your friend is still within its corpse somewhere. He puts his hand on Yuri's shoulder, just as the Metamorphosis effect ends. A single week you've had this power, and already you have vanquished a demon. Not something many can boast. You are quite dangerous, Mr. Vera. Dangerous and full of surprises. He lets go of Yuri's shoulder and walks deeper into the house.
6 - He comes back perfectly fine, not remembering anything that happened over the last week, only knowing that Lucas and Yuri saved his life somehow and he's grateful.
5 - Similar to #6 but is emotionally screwy, jumping at simple scares and such for a week. Has some nightmares, but will eventually return to normal.
4 - He comes back but has PTSD and has to be medicated to help him stay normal. Is constantly plagued by bad dreams and flashbacks of the things the demon did.
3 - He comes back but he's so traumatized he ends up needing around the clock psychological and medical care.
2 - He dies.
1 - Demon fully devours him and revives itself, stronger than before.
