Rina frowned, Alison was... kinda scary. And maybe a little not entirely sane. She turned at the sound of the newcomer asking for a name, "My name in Rina and this- well he," she said gesturing at her companion, "is Aron." Aron also turned away from the now impaled spider, "We also do not know were we are going. The initial plan was to head through the forest in an attempt to find civilization. I take it your intent is to join us?" Aron inquired of Emeka. He was disappointing that the spider had been killed, he had merely attempted to immobilize it and the darkness girl had finished it off. Though supposedly they did have to kill things to gain more power, curious how that whole process was supposed to work.

"Hello Rina and... Aron, it is good to know you" said Emeka, tipping his hat towards the two in a small nod. "Yes it seems that I will be coming with you for now." he said in reply to Aron, "The forest is the same to me as any direction, But maybe there will be an abundance of food in that their. It would be bad for my first meal to be spider in this new place"

It was then the earth beneath him began to buckle. Startled Emeka dropped to a crouch for better balance. Luckily Libe had been kind enough to warn the lot of them beforehand, so he wasn’t too alarmed.The earth began to rise slowly at first and then faster as it slowly formed into a pillar. This one likes to flaunt his magic it seems.

Soon the pillar cleared the forest roof and land spread itself out in front of them. What Emeka saw he could not quite comprehend. It was alien, truly different from the Earth he had come from. The lands seemed to be separated into elements, clearly demarcated and distinct. Interestingly, a little farther off he saw what seemed to be a village. A village, interesting, it seems my first destination is clear.

However Emeka’s building excitement, was quickly doused. The pillar of earth began to sway, as winds began to pelt its length. As the tower staggered, surely beginning to crumble under the stress.

"U-uhm... Don't suppose any of one you guys can fly?"

“It would have been better to ask that before hand” he said, his voice slightly heated. At the moment he did not want to put any faith in the man’s abilities. He would have to think of something on his own. He began to listen to the song of the power that lied behind him, it was building once again, filling him with strength. The song told him what he needed to do. He looked to edge of the platform, and then looked back at the rest of them. “It would seem I am crazier than you lot” he said. Then with a smooth motion, the Emeka leapt of the pillar.

As he leapt, his power took over, guiding him in what needed to be done. As he crosed the apex of his jump, he kicked his leg down, with he forced his power through his feet. A small explosion erupted from his heel.The explosion effectively reduced the speed of his descent, however he still had a distance to travel.

Emeka took a deep breath and dove into his instinct, trusting its guidance completely. It took several steps to reach the ground, but he did so quickly and having covered a large amount of ground. He looked back and smiled, waving to fellows up on the tower. They would have to find their own way off.

definately, sounds like a snazzy idea

The man watched the spider, with a sadness in his eyes. It was something that Emeka could not understand, all that he saw was the removal of an obstacle. It was yet another small event in the circle of death and life. What did it matter, the spider was weak and hence it had its life taken.

However on the other hand the man seemed to care for it... Although it had clearly attacked him. How curious yet how meaningless. To not be able to take was in the end another kind of weakness...

"It seems so. My name is Libé." He stepped of his pedestal as it lowered into the ground.
"I assume you, like us, are brought here by the goddess?" Libé stuck out his hand.

@akje

Emeka took the man's outstretched hand and shook it."I am Emeka, and yes I brought to this place by the goddess." he said
"It is good to meet you, friend. Do you know where we have't go, or where civilization lies?"

As the rock hits the spider square in its head, Emeka looks at the lyng twitching heap with an open jawed expression. This new strength in his body was profound in its power, he could feel it coursing through his veins. Like coiled lightning the power strained to be free and Emeka thirsted to free it. However a wise man once told him... A hunter uses his emotion, he is not slave to it. For emotion clouds the mind, and the mind is man’s strongest weapon. Sadly the wise man had forgotten to heed his own advice in the end..

So with a force of will and clenched fists he forced the beast within back into its cave, back to that dark place within his subconscious. Not now friend, there will be time for that soon enough… As his battle lust cooled, he kept his distance from the spider. Instinct told him it would not do well to get too close to the beast, he had seen what its web had done to the magics of the metal man and the shadow thing of the girl. If only he had a weapon of some kind it would make it much better for him to deal with such hindrances.

As he walked toward the rest of the group, he saw the metal man shape the earth and wield ice. He saw the girl in black, wreath herself in darkness to become a nightmare. He felt a frown forming upon his face, their power was great, if not greater than his. He would have to take care around them, for Emeka was not sure of their intent.

“It don’t matter whether it’s a he or a she, no friends lays a web such as this on guests. Still it does not matter, the bug seems to be quite overpowered.” He said as he looked on at girl wreathed in darkness’ overwhelming attack upon the spider

“Ah, I forgot to ask, what may I call you ?” he asked the man who melded earth, and the girl who seemed to command the metal man.

Emeka

The dark engulfed Emeka, his consciousness a glimmer floating in the nothingness. However there was something else with him in the dark, a impression of power and strength, a last touch from the goddess. He felt ripple of fear disturb the dark as he remembered her unfathomable power.

Slowly the dull repetitive drumbeat of his heart began to fill the emptiness. With this he felt another alien feeling rising within him, a kind of regular pressure across the entirety of his self. It had its own ebbs and flows, as it travelled across his body. However Emeka did not panic, for with this feeling arose a new strength, hot and furious.

The first thoughts past through his mind, I will take this strength, only the weak fear power. I will savor it with joy. By know the dark had begun to fade as his sensations returned one by one, touch, sound, etc. It was then that he had a small surprise, he had a kind of a new awareness of his surroundings, of the heat around him. Without opening his eyes he understood that he was within some kind of machine, alien, unlike anything he knew about.

Beyond that he found there were a few humans, glowing with body heat. He could easily tell that one of them was child . Curiosity taking its toll, Emeka finally opened his eyes, it was a strange container with glowing lines pulsing through the clear parts as well as the opaque. As he stood up the container gave way, allowing him to get of off it without much problem.

Stretching his arms, as he let out a soft yawn, Emeka took in his surroundings. It was a stone structures, like those old colonial forts. Even across the walls he saw the same pattern of crisscrossing pulsing lines he had seen in the pods. He noticed sign of the goddess, seeing the gifts she had seen fit to give her, it only felt right to give a small bow of reverence. One day I will have your strength as mine, but for now I pay respect to the stronger. The entire structure had two doors, one leading outside to what seemed to be some kind of grassland, the other deeper into the structure.

The other people were what he would term tourists he had seen them passing many a time through the congo, but never had much of a chance to speak with them. However from what he had heard from many of his men, they were a weak and soft kind, though rather rich. Now, it seemed that they had same kind of powers he did, different yet sim. Asilar. He decided to follow them for a while, he was uncomfortable approaching them, after all who knew what other surprised the had in store.

He followed them out into the open grassland, on the way he took note of the strange blue vegetation, with their strange leaves. It was then that realization that he was not really on earth struck him. He began to seriously ponder where exactly Emeka actually was.

The group suddenly halted, Emeka thought it was because they had realized they were being followed. If so It was time that he spoke with them, conveyed the fact that he meant no har, his instinct told Emeka that he would have need for them in this new place.

@helltank @akje @Eklispe
“Hello, friends” he said, his speech tinged with a heavy central african accent. “ I was wondering -” and then he spotted the reason why they had stopped. It was large spider, atop a large web. What was surprising was how it all seemed to be floating midair, nothing attached to the web to give it any support whatsoever.

Then the giant bug begins to plunge wildly over Emeka and his soon to be friends, casting its webs overhead almost like a fisherman casting its web. Emeka knew a trap when he saw it, “This tries to trap us!” he said, warning his friends. As he bent down to pick up a pebble on instinct, almost as if he knew what to do. As he goes to grab it his hands light up with a blazing white gold fire, charring the surrounding grass. The rock begins to go red in his hand, then slowly becomes softer and hotter as it is encased in his fiery hands.

Then with a mighty movement of his hands, power surging through his body, Emeka chucks the now almost molten pebble at the spider. Send a speeding flash of red right at the things head...
