==Soulless==
Soulless arm was still outstretched waiting for the sword when he saw a Human Girl walk into the Clearing. He noticed the spirits Behind her Keeping ot the shadows. but it definitely seemed that they leaded the Girl here "Hello I am Death" Soulless Said his arm outstretched his mind drifting if she can see Beyond the Veil that separates this world and the afterlife She could presumably Counter his Soul manipulation And if she could counter his Soul manipulation he frowned at the thought the girl would become powerful no doubt. Soulless Waved his hand in the air Breaking the Bindings of everyones soul. This Changes everything Soulless Thought "i see you can perceive soul" he asked the girl his eyes emotionless.

=Mary=
When Mary heard that this new girl could perceive souls she stopped and just stared as the blade on her back pulsed ominously if Soulless said was true this could be either a great ally or a dangerous Enemy Mary just pondered the Thought of another person who could percieve souls the last person was a necromancer and they ended up killing half a village effortlessly Even Death had a hard time killing him. But he did it in the end. Soulless always hated the necromancers. Mary Just sat their staring at the girl her black wings just fluttered in the breeze

==Nightmare==
This girl could perceive souls Unbelievable but it could be possible The day just kept on getting stranger and stranger Nightmare was getting Bored way to quickly He started fiddling with his Candle. making the flames large and small. he loved his candle the wick measured his lifeforce. it was considerably tall.

==Blade==

Blade doubted on giving Death his sword, if you dont count Shar's club, then it was the only weapon this group of humans had, Giving it to someone else was risky.
In the end Blade decided, if the man wanted to see the weapon, he can, but Blade would not let it go.
Surely, even Death would understand that much.
But before he could say anything an new girl appeared, she seemed human, but Death said she could perceive souls?
Well he had heard about other humans with same abilities, he believes in ghosts as well, so why not.
"Wait, you came from further in the woods? how did you get here?" Blade asked the new arrival.
Everyone that came by the light was dropped here, or at least that was what Blade had thought at first, so was she dropped further for some reason or did she get to this place by some other path,
She looked human and had clothes fitting Earth, so in all she should be from Earth....

==Aya==

before the new girl appeared Aya was about to speak up, trough very softly and barely audible.
"s.. s.. same as him, b.. but I was just sleeping"

==Runa==

As she looked at all this chaos, it started to become just plainly idiotic and not even funny anymore.

(wont post till we got some replies from multiple people, especially Ra'avi, or it will turn chaotic for some of the less active posters
just so you know, will as the GM (and just a active rp'er XD) always read the rp's XD
if anyone thinks its not active enough for a while, then say so in the OOC XD)

There were bushes all around the clearing where they landed, so it wasn't possible to see all of them,
at the moment the elf tried to hide, Shar was standing with his back to the elf, his attention was concentrated oh death and his siblings, so he couldn't see her, but he surely did hear her, therefore his reaction.
"You too, there on the tree, I can both smell you and hear you, you might as well come down and introduce yourself!" he said to Runa.
At this point Shar was already far from looking human, he was over 2 meters (6.5 feet) tall, his shoulders was as broad as the shoulders of a male bull, his skull became more bull like, with long face and thick bone under the skin, his teeth became sharp like minotaur's teeth should be and he started to grow horns. His body became very muscular, more muscular then any human can ever be and he started to grow fur. His feet still remained human and not hoofs, but were larger then before. His senses were fully developed minotaur senses at this point, he could smell anything from a long distance, had an acute hearing and infra- vision, he was not aware of the last one though because it was day time, Shar also developed an instinctive navigation ability and understood that they are standing facing South, the elf is North to him, death and his siblings are to the South and the creature on the tree is to the South - West.
When the new girl arrived from the east, Shar noticed her by the new smell before she appeared, but she smelled like a human, and even more then that, she smelled like a young female, so Shar didn't feel threatened by her, "I'm Shar" he introduced himself swiftly to the newcomer without turning his head.

If one ventured deep enough into the dark forest, they would hear the sound of a flute. A haunting melody, twisting and turning in its chaotic yet beautiful dance. If one were to find the source, they would stumble upon a campfire, a graceful elf clothed in red beside it. Soon, the elf put down his flute.
"You like my new piece, Para?" The elf affectionately patted a golden bow leaning on a tree trunk beside him.
"Yeah, yeah. Sure. I'm just hungry," the bow replied.
"Paraclitus, you can't eat. You're a weapon." The elf took the bow and morphed it into a sword. "Perhaps a sharpening would be in order."
The sword sighed. Suddenly, a dance of lights appeared in the twilight sky.
The elf looked up. "That's the second time it's happened this evening."
"Maybe it's another angel..." the sword said.
"We haven't seen an angel for two weeks now."
"Still, we should check it out."
"I agree with Paraclitus," the flute said in a sleepy manner.
"All right, all right." The elf pocketed the flute and slung the sword over his back. He then threw a couple more logs into the fire and set out towards the source of the lights.
"Wait!" The sword's warning abruptly stopped the elf. "What if it's a priest that is performing an important ritual and doesn't want to be disturbed?"
"It could be a necromancer masquerading as a priest. Remember that one time?..."
"Still!" The sword was defiant. "I don't feel like going out there any more."
"Me neither. But I don't want whatever's happening to offend Father Nature." The elf neared the source, his steps becoming lighter as they drew closer. "Who - or what - is out there, I am assuming it wants to kill us." The elf suddenly dropped to the ground, crouching. "Both of you. Quiet."
As the elf finally reached the clearing, he stepped on a twig.

==Runa==

"You too, there on the tree, I can both smell you and hear you, you might as well come down and introduce yourself!"

Runa sighed, this truly was no fun anymore.
"fine" she said softly as she jumped down, stealthy using water around her to land safely on the ground.
During the jump did she noticed a new arrival as he stepped on a twig.
"this really is not funny anymore"
She looked to the sky and then to the mutating male.
"If you are able to smell and hear so well, then I take it you are able to feel the change of the weather as well, I have lived in the outdoors enough to know that there is a storm coming"
She then looked to the entire group.
"listen, I for one dont want to be outside when it hits, So shall we take this weird little party to a dry spot, I know of some ruins nearby that can house us all, may I guide you all, or at least go there by my self"

Cyril cursed. Oh, what perfect timing you have, Cyril. Now the necromancer's getting ready to kill you with his undead army of - what the hell was this? A Minotaur, another elf, Death reincarnate (again), and... these strange creatures that looked like... dwarves? No, too short. Orcs? Definitely not. They looked like elves... except with no pointy ears.

"I know of some ruins nearby that can house us all"

"You mean the old Lycan fortress, ma'am?" Cyril scratched his head. "Well, the old stories say that when fleeing from a horde of ogres, a band of adventurers hid their loot here. The ogres never found it, so I expect there'll be prizes to be won." Cyril's frown turned into a ghost of a smile. "I've actually been planning to explore it for a while... much better with more eyes and ears."

Before the other world, son.

It was reaching 4:00 AM. Fucking college papers and shit. Ivette yawned, leaning backwards. She was at it for about 3 hours. She took a sip of her coffee to the left of her keyboard, and started typing again. 'I should stop...' she thought. The coffee wasn't working. She knew that constantly drinking coffee every night, almost like an addiction, was terrible. Though, there really wasn't anything better to use. If she went to sleep, maybe she might get some last bits done in the morning? Yeah. 4 hours and 30 mins of sleep, that'd give her extra time, right?

Just go to sleep.

And she did. Despite the amount of coffee, she managed to sleep fairly quickly. And it was no problem doing so, it was incredibly easy.

And she had a weird ass dream.

---

In the other world.

She dreamt that she was going into some kind of portal, or falling through the floor. She saw the insides of everything that she was on before. Her bed looked empty, the inside of the computer looked like it was full of spiders. Nasty, nasty spiders. And then, she couldn't see anything, like she was completely out of the world.

She saw a forest. A foresty type of place. She was lying down, unconscious on some grass, before waking and seeing this. "The hell? What kind of drug-induced dream is this?" She asked. Instinctively, she punched herself. She felt slight pain.

Mmkay.

==Runa==

Runa looked at the next person waking up while punching herself.
"and an other person" She sighed and looked at the High Elf.
"I would not get your hopes up, Storys can be false and I checked the place before, nothing to be found aside some hand prints on the back wall, But pressing against them wont do a thing"
She turned to the ruins and started walking.
"still, its a good spot to wait out the storm"

==Blade==

As he listened to the conversation, he wondered what to do.
In the end he nodded to Shar and all other humans and followed the tree girl.
She was right, if a storm was coming then they would be saver in some ruins, even if they had to fight to get inside.

==Aya==

As the girl that jumped from the tree's started to walk and an other human followed her, she felt it was the saver bet to follow them.
Even if its just the three of them, then it would be fine, better even for her.
The man had a sword and the woman seemed to know what she was doing.
Anything was better then staying here out in the forest in her sleepwear with a man that turned into a minotaur and a man calling himself death with his siblings.

"those ruins" Soulless Said aloud he Began to Catch up with the group as he mingled with the crowd his eyes staring hard into the new elf he did not like her. her appearance screamed thief from the katars. he broke his stare as he asked "Oh By the way sir with the sword. I would like to borrow it for a moment please" Soulless said he wanted to make it stronger by infusing it with some things. he sighed sometimes he just wanted to crawl up and oh wait he can't hes death. He stared at his siblings with a look of remorse in his eyes. before turning back to the crowd "So then if we enter theses ruins then what"?

Bloody Mary
She put her hand to her head when they neared the ruines it hurt so much. like someone was tearing it apart and trying to fix it badly. her body shock with a violent force as she collapsed almost instantaneously. it appeared she had fainted. She lifted her hand and looked up before collapsing back into unconsciousness . her entire body went limp and rigid as a Blood red and Phantom black Pulse glowed around her bringing forth a almost Evil looking appearance to her But it gave the warmth of kindness and consideration.

Nightmare:
Nightmare turned around to see a Rustling in the bush's a hand was clasped over his Mask As he was Pulled into the bush. the group did not see because he was to far away for them to even notices they where probably glad he was gone. he was bound and his staff and candle taken and sealed away in a Jar. He was helpless to his captors he Shivered they where probably gonna kill him (This is nightmares last post for a while )

Shar smelled the air, there was no smell of rain, but then again this place was weird..
" Yes, lets find a shelter." he answered Runa.
Kaya was looking better at this point and could stand on her own 2 feet, so Shar released her.
The long eared girl that came out of the bushes when Shar bellowed didn't have any significant weapons and behaved rather friendly, so except introducing himself, Shar didn't give her too much attention.
Another feeling was drawing his attention..Hunger! He just mutated half way to becoming a minotaur and his body demanded nutrition!
He smelled the air and then said quetly: " Ha, this place is not that different from earth after all.. " after that he jumped into the nearby bushes like a lion. Some loud snorting and hi pitched yawling came out of the bush, after that silence. Shar appeared out of the bushes holding a corpse of a grown male wild boar, he was vigorously devouring it.
After few minutes only the bones and several pieces of skin were left from the carcass, Shar burped, cleaned the blood of his face with his arm (yes, he ate the wild boar raw) and rejoined the group, following Runa to the ruins. When Shar catched up with Blade, he told him: "Don't give that local your sword under no circumstances!" .
Shar broke away the redundant twigs from the huge tree branch he was using as a weapon and sharpened the other twigs with his teeth, which he already found out became sharp as a rather, now his weapon became an improvised heavy spiked club.
After the meal the mutation continued and by the time they arrived to the ruins, Shar became a fully transformed minotaur.
He was standing 9 feet high, around 3 feet in shoulder width, was covered in black fur and had full grown horns and hoofs. His usually friendly face became fierce and threatening, but when he looked on his friends his eyes remained friendly.
"Lets build camp and organize." suggested the minotaur.


Shar , after the mutation completed

Akai looked at her chest, it was flat. She felt her face, she was a guy. "What did you do to me?" She asked the strange man in front of her/him. "I cursed you, from now on you will switch genders," He responded. Crap, Akai thought. Who was that, and where am I? His gripped tightened around the machete at his waist. First thing that he should do was find other people. Akai started walking away from the man and out into the unknown land.

It was another day for Blue, he was just mindlessly wondering around in the forest, his irom sword at hand in case any orcs attacked him. But even if he did not have any weapons, he still had his few magic spells. Fire worked wonders against orcs, as it clensed their filth. But until something happened, Blue would wander like a feal floating around in the wind. He only had two set goals, find food and shelter. As long as there were trees around shelter was covered as he could just sleep in their branches, but food was another story. But he had heard stroies from other elves about strange beings with round ears. They were not as ugly as orcs, but they still could not compare to an elf. Maybe... they would make good eating if they were unintelligent. After licking his lips at the thought of freshly cooked meat, he rushed off deeper into the forest.

"I know" Blade said to Shar about the sword.
He then looked at Death "If you want to see the sword, then fine, but I wont give it over, you can look while I am holding on to the weapon, You should understand that aside Mino here, its basically the only weapon we got"
With Mino Blade meant Shar.
After having said that he looked at the sky, it was still morning but it was already turning dark as black clouds are covering the blue heavens and the air was starting to feel moist, there was even a feel-able buildup of static energy, strong enough that Blade could feel it.
"But wait till we get to the ruins"

Once the group reached the pretty ancient looking structure, Runa went in right away to make sure it was empty inside before coming back out.
"We can all enter, its clear"

With that the group entered the first room and up till now the only visible room.
A large wall separated the room in 2 sections trough.
Behind this wall you would find marks of hand prints inside circles, around the same number as humans present in the group, but that would be everything you could see inside.

Akai wandered for a while, looking at his surroundings. He saw no sign of people for a while. Only beautiful trees. However, Once Akai reached the edge of the forest he found signs that there might be humans there. He took a few steps forward and spotted the group. He decided to watchne group before actually introducing himself.

Shar looked around, the room was ancient and smelled weird.
"What is this place?" he asked Runa.

Gaara stood in a shadowy corner of the ruins, watching as the other group entered. He stepped out of the shadows slowly. "So you aren't demons. Guess I won't have to kill you, Will I?" He said softly then observed each and every one of them.

Blue followed his nose as he roamed around the forest, looking for those 'human' creatures so he could learn if he could eat them or not. Soon he came across a small group of figures, but the lighting made it hard for him to see them. "Hey! Do you know where any 'human' creatures are? I want to see if I can... eat them." Blue called to the group.

death didn't care bout the sword anymore his sister had fainted he carried her over his back into the ruins So he could lay her down somewhere to see what was wrong with here.

Cyril sniffed at the new arrival, keeping a good distance away from him. Then, he took out Amice and began to speak in the Abyssal language, the 'common' of demons, devils, fiends and anything else that dwelt in the essence of evil. "What foul mouth commanded thee to enter the untainted realm? Speak, demon!"
