The Day The Earth Fell

I HAVE a REALLY cool idea about what to do with the two kids that we are saving in the Red Waste. After we save them, do you guys mind if I take control of them for a bit?

The Day The Earth Fell

So just so we know where everyone is right now I will post a little summary for each. Let me know if I'm wrong about anything.

-Ravenia is with Tobias in the solar car driving across the Red Waste.
-Shay, Sun, Marcus, Ramera, Jacob, Fen?, Isam? are at the gate.
-Anora is flying over the Red Waste towards something she saw.
-Clo happened to be trying to help the children beforehand and is now weak and lying on the ground in the Red Waste.
-Cypher is still pretty much isolated from the rest of the cast and with his own posse.

Is that all correct so far guys?

The Day The Earth Fell

Sun wrenched a bit forward in the direction of the gate, trying to get Shay to come along with him. His urgency was evident, but the strong confident and assuring smile of Shay made him feel much better. When it appeared that she was about to follow him, her motion stopped, as her attention had been diverted to The Blessed One Fen. Maybe it was due to his precognitive abilities, but Sun knew just about everyone, or at least...knew of them. He was more of the silent type who enjoyed hearing others speak and coagulate with eachother. He was such a wallflower and eventhough he was aware of most people, he wasn't particularly familiar with them. But of course, he was still always on his P&Qs and diligent to show respect and generosity.

He hadn't realized that Fen had came upon Shay at about the same time as he did. But when Shay nodded to Fen's request to assist them, Sun nodded as well, his light little head bobbing up and down innocently. His attention then followed Shay's once more, who seemed encouraged by Isam's willingness to help as well. He looked strong that was for sure. Sun glazed his eyes over Isam like a porcelain doll before rediverting his eyes back to Shay as she semi-yelled LETS GO! Her strong hand gripped around his as they made a break for the Gate.

As they ran, Sun looked behind him, hoping that Isam and Fen were not too far behind. Although, both men were incredibly strong, so they probably wouldn't have an issue tailing them. When they arrived at the gate, Shay affectionately wrapped her arm around neck like an older sibling would. She called out to Marcus as his eyes followed to the man's frame. Sun also took notice of Jacob and waved somewhat innocently to him and smiled warmly. Jacob probably didn't know, but Sun thoroughly enjoyed his company. He was such an odd indiviual and his semi-fame in the Paradise walls was certainly a chuckle, but Sun knew that Jacob didn't actually invent the solar cars. A premonition can inform you of that.

Whether Jacob noticed Sun's wave or not, he wasn't sure, as he looked back towards Marcus the gatekeeper, keeping quiet and letting Shay do the talking.

I'm unexpectedly sick with a fever, nasal congestion, body aches, headaches, chills, etc. I feel like shit. hahaha But i too will get in a post or two now. maybe another in the morning depending on the progress. im gonna be working all day tomorrow, even with my sickness. :(

The Day The Earth Fell

Exactly Cheshire. But I figured it might be a little fun to have a quick little spat with them when we go to pick u up and then another little battle with the ones that trail them to the gates, so everyone, INCLUDING our resident walking nuclear bomb can get a bit of the action too and melt them mutha suckas! or watever his radiation does. hehe

The Day The Earth Fell

Cheshire, I like the idea that u had Raven come up with. So it looks like, Raven and Doc are going to go and try and save the children and Clo. If successful, Doc is going to drive them back and Raven is going to stay behind to fight them off and divert their attention(HOPEFULLY). Then Shay and I guess with Sun, Fen, and Isam will drive off in the car thing to where Raven is. Have a cool little fight scene to kill some of them and fend em off, and then drive back with Raven back to the city. If all goes well! LOL Although, it might actually be kinda cool if some of the Dead make it to the gate, so everyone still at the city can have a chance to kill some too(if they want). Hehehe I mean...everything cant go perfectly. Whats the fun if Raven manages to divert all of them. After they kill some of them, im pretty sure some of them will probably still follow then back to the city once they pick Raven up.

Suddenly, Shaylly's eyes were torn from the sky by the sound of her name being called. She recognized the voice immediately and the concern she felt for Anora's flight pattern only increased seeing Sun searching intensely for her; something was definitely not right. Down the street she saw the boy running and shouting her name. She called back to him, waving her arm. "Sun! Over here!" As Sun would make his way over towards her and Isam, Shaylly bit her lip with concern, looking down at him. Standing at 5"7 she was normally a formative figure for a woman but especially in comparison to little Sun. She felt much love and care for Sun though, and revered him with immense respect due to his important abilities as a Blessed One. He was, to her, a symbol of sweet innocence, something that seemed rare in their current times. Sun was one who could instantly put her in a calm state.Shay glanced to Isam, unsure if he knew who Sun was, then crouched down to meet him closer face to face. She didn't want to assume the worst so she let her furrowed brow relax and forced a wide smile for him. "What's up buddy? What can I do for you?"

Sun ran intensely in search of Shay. His two hearts pumping more than he used to. Double thud his hearts went. But luckily, a benefit of having two hearts is that one's endurance and stamina are incredibly vast. And Sun's small frame allowed him to dart around without breaking a sweat, as if he was gliding on ice. As the wind blew his hair wildly, he ran through an a very thin but long alleyway, knocking over a pale of paint sitting on a beam of wood. He only had the slightest moment to take notice of the Graffiti on the wall. (Sacred...) something it read, with what looked like a large hand reaching out towards a small hand. Sun made a sharp turn onto Chalice street, almost knocking into a lamp post. He called out once more "Shay!", his high voice shouted out. Nothing.

He continued on, passing by the thrift shop he had aquired his peculiar skeleton hairpin from. It was a gift to him from his adoptive mother, it represented his fortitude against the dead. Or at least...thats what he thought it meant. Sun was definitely the type to always try and find deeper meaning in most mundane and seemingly unimportant of things. Sun ran non stop for at least a good 10 minutes, his two hearts beating immensely to keep up with his tempo. He paused for a moment after going down a few more blocks and called out once more..."Shay!". Nothing. He continued on, but luckily...not far. Shay was down the next block, standing and looking a little flustered near Isam. Sun knew of the man, but didn't particularly associate with him. "Shay!", he called out to her as she called out back to him. He sprinted up close with an obviously worried countenance. He took a moment to politely bow to Isam before diverting his attention back to Shay and gently grabbing her left wrist with both of his delicate soft hands.

He let out a deep sigh and looked upon her face. She was such a lovely indiviual who he cared deeply about. If anything, she was like a big sister to him. Such an admirable and steadfast example of an honourable human. Especially one who could handle her own without the abilities of a Blessed One. His peculiar angelic and feminine eyes glazed over her as he spoke. Sun let out a soft chuckle, but then became serious. "Thank goodness I found you Shay. It's not what you can do for me, but what you can do for Ravenia. I had a dream, and there is danger coming this way. A horde of Dead chasing behind two small kids. Maybe just a few years younger than me. I'm not sure when it is going to occur exactly, but Ravenia told me to fetch you because she thinks it may be upon us soon. We must hurry back to the front gate immediately. It's incredibly urgent Shay.", he let out like a scurried mouse. With his hands still lightly clasped around her left wrist, Sun took a moment to look at Isam and gave him a nod. He was too shy to ask for his assistance, but hoped that the strong-looking man would get the idea and coming along as well. He slightly pulled on Shay's arm in hopes she would follow with him back to the Gate where Ravenia was, or at least...was headed to.

LOL @Kaiden. Hahahaha I LOVE the way shaylly feels about Sun. It is so cute. hahaha and U didn't have to bend down. LOL he isn't that short. He is 4'11. But he is only 14 so he is pretty young in comparison to the rest of the cast for sure. I<3 Shay. haha

Ravenia chuckled at Sun's words. "It's hard to show the respect of a Leader to somebody who is younger than you. It was a battle being appointed Mother. Many people have come to accept it, but it doesn't mean they like it. I mean, they know I work hard for them and that I would do my best, but they still see me young and inexperienced. I don't know why, though. The Mother before me was sixteen when she was appointed." Ravenia said with a chuckle as she thought to her predecessor. She had been very respected, Ravenia could only hope with time the people came to see her truly as Mother.She was brought from her reverie suddenly at Sun's quick words. She trained her eyes on him fully as he hastily told her about his dreams. Knowing just how pertinent dreams could be, Ravenia listened intently to Sun. Nodding her head, Ravenia tilted her head back and eyed the sun too. "Knowing your dreams, we have anywhere from a matter of an hour to seventy-two hours for this to happen." She stopped for a moment, thinking something over, chewing her inner cheek in heavy consultation. "Sun, go find Shaylly for me, I'm going to need her to do a wide perimeter sweep across the Red Waste. Have her report to me here at the gates. Send a warning out that all traveling outside of the Paradise is strictly forbidden for the next few days. I need to alert the Harpies and the Gate Keeper." Ravenia said quickly, clutching Sun's shoulders firmly as she eyed him carefully. "Thank you, little Sun." She said as she gave him a smile and turned quickly towards the walls

Sun looked to his mistress intently and nodded in agreement. She was right. Not always was the case with his dreams, but generally they occurred within a 72hr period from the point of him having the dream. This was especially helpful as they generally had a specific timeframe to work with. Although...a previous incident that occurred that Sun dreamed about didn't take place until a month later. Luckily that incident was avoided and dealt with accordingly, although....barely. Sun had three forms of precognition. His precognitive dreams occurred almost every night. But...because the precognitive dreams he had were so vast, they were many times confusing and often, very violent. Almost like a danger sense. Yet of course, many of his dreams of the future were about completely random things and absolutely pointless. His precognitive dreams were on random roll, he could virtually dream about just about anything.

Now his premonitions. These were probably his best way of gathering information. He didn't have to be asleep to get a premonition. And many times, if he focused on a specific person or object, or just happened to be in a certain area, he could trigger a premonition. To him, they were like teaser video clip in black in white. Usually, these premonitions were no more than 10 and some of the images flash by so quickly, he can't make out every detail. Unlike his precognitive dreams, which are drawn out and very detailed. Nonetheless, his premonitions provided him with quick access to the future and a general understanding of what was to come. Not only that....but sometimes his premonitions were of the past as well. And then of course...his Lovely Ghostwriter ability was very peculiar.

Sun Nodded when Ravenia told him to find Shaylly. "Understood mam. I'll try and find her right away.", he said diligently, almost proud that he was useful to her. He smiled warmly as she placed her motherly hands on his shoulders and thanked him. He blushed once more, tagging his scrawny fingers into his hair bashfully. "Of...of course my lady. No thanks necessary", he said in a slightly awkward tone. When Ravenia took off towards the wall, so he did, heading in the opposite direction and calling out for Shaylly as he ran through the city. Hopefully he would find her soon. And if he didn't, he'd head back towards the front gate where Ravenia headed off too. He'd assist her in any way he could. He wasn't the best fighter...but his Blessed ability was particularly useful against the Dead.

Hahaha well i thought it would be suspenseful to work up to a conflict with the dead, instead of a random fight out of nowhere. So we have time to prepare and maybe something else will come from the conflict. And we are moving a bit fast I must admit. I'll wait to post until some other people have caught up. If they dont post soon though, I'll continue.
