Perilous Beauty - Page 2

Ryan looked from Jade and back to Enya. They weren't out to merely cause trouble, but to get revenge. He took anotehr dareing stepp closer tot he cat, ghis finger itching to pull the trigger. *It's my duty to save and protect the innocent. THIS man did no harm to you or your lady. He does not deserve your punishment.* Ryan meet his dark eyes with the cat's seething ones.

*Storm Wolf* · 10-02-2002, 09:25 AM

Jade's eyes narrowed "How dare you....I come from a proud heritage....a long line of Amazonians and mages." she gave the creature a wicked smile "I see that you agree with what man has done to this land....how he has maniputlated it into a polluted city!" a saddend look then came over her face "This land was once lush and green, a place of beauty when my mother ruled....I am the rightful hier to this land.....not man!"

Enya cave another Cat's smile I belive nothing of your words...protect the innocent...Ha don't make me laugh her pupils widened to let more light in Would you risk your own life for this man...then take him if you dare! she stood beside the shaking man claws extended, ready to pounce.

*enigma-1* · 10-02-2002, 09:35 AM

*growls* And you think that we Gargoyles have had it any better than you? In case you haven't noticed, lady, we've nearly been driven to extinction by humans. But that doesn't mean we go out of our way to hurt them, especially the ones that never did anything to us personally.

*Storm Wolf* · 10-03-2002, 09:19 AM

"I see some Logic in what you say Gargoyl....but if I am to protect myself I need a mans soul, it's not so much as what he did as to what he has!" she shifted her weight to one side

(( ack... you're making me think too hard

Ryan was tempted to make the first move, to take on the cat. But that wouldn't be wise just yet. If he failed, then both he and the other man would be dead.

Ryan tightened his stance, his plan made. The cat was ready to pouince him, but was she flexible too? How was she at chasing two targets? With lightening fast reflexes, he darted to the far side, more or less covering the man. "On my mark, make a dash out of this alley, sir," Ryan told the fellow crowering behind him against the wall.

*enigma-1* · 10-03-2002, 08:05 PM

For your protection or not, that still doesn't give you the right to take an innocent's soul! He may have a family who needs him and if you kill him just for yourself, you're taking away something more precious than you can know!

*snarls again, her own words ringing of her early life, though she doesn't say*

*Storm Wolf* · 10-04-2002, 09:26 AM

Jade shook of the gargoyl's words and turned to Enya was planning to strike out until a call from Jade stopped her "Enya, come my friend....we have better things to do than fool around with these petty creatures, besides I have enough soul energy to last me for a while."

Enya curled her lips and hissed at the two men Jade sometimes feels pity for the creatures who are less powerful...but I do not! her golden eye's flashed in the darkness Man has always treated animals with inferiority....and untill my brothers and sisters are free from thier cages I will bear this grudge She turned and trotted off after Jade.

*enigma-1* · 10-04-2002, 09:29 AM

*growls, debating whether she should strike or protect the remaining humans*

**HorseTechie** · 10-04-2002, 10:15 AM

*Just because a few abusive men might have caused you grief, doesn;t mean we all despise animals* Ryan just narrowed his eyes so they were just dark slats, as the two offenders left the scene.

His gaze softened some when he looked to the gargoyle figure. "Thank you," Ryan said, then turned to tend to the injured man behind him.

"NYPD," he flashed his badge then got out his cell phone before continuing. "All you alright? Do you need an ambulance?"

*enigma-1* · 10-04-2002, 10:50 AM

*merely nods to the officer, then proceeds to climb up the alley wall, back toward the rooftops again*

*R-iZZy* · 10-04-2002, 01:57 PM

((OK... I'm gonna jump in with my old character, Stealth, until I have the mind to think of another character.))

As Enya climbed that rooftop, a shadow emerged from the depths of darkness in the alleyway. A glowing blade stuck out, as an arm was obscured from the naked eye. An echo of chuckle bounced off of the alleyway walls, as the figure placed a foot out. The figure drew his leg back behind the darkness of the alleyway and threw out a deceased body, apparently his most recent casualty. As the figure dropped to the ground, the murderous figure stepped out from the shadows, only to reveal that it was none other than Stealth, the mutant assassin.

"Well well well! This town's gotta little party for me and I wasn't invited? Stealth snickered. "Somebody's gotta 'lil bit of explaining to do. I'm p*ssed and I need a 'lil bit of action to cheer me up."

Stealth walked back behind the darkness of the shadows, as he drew his glowing blade back into its handle.

((Eh... not bad. But I think I can do better. I've noticed I have a different style of RPing, so bear with me if my RPs are too descriptive. It's all because of Efeds <you'd know what I mean, Azure, if you were in elite Efeds>. Anyway... I'll attempt to find the time to RP, but school is a big time consumer and homework from all AP and Honors courses don't help either. Please someone, lend me your sympathy))

**Kali** · 10-04-2002, 02:07 PM

((AP and Honors courses. *cringes* I remember all too well. You have my sympathy.))

Karra pulled her coat a bit tighter around herself. The night suddenly took on an eerie chill. Something's wrong...

Most people would consider an omen of danger to be a bad thing, but not Karra. Danger was what she lived for, and since it didn't seem to be coming to her, that meant she would have to go looking for it.

**HorseTechie** · 10-04-2002, 03:05 PM

(( yay, more players! ))

Ryan left the alley after the EMS showed up to help the shaken man. And people thought X-files was just a TV show... must make a note to start carrying my sword around with me more the way I get stuck with these unusual assignments, Ryan though to himself as he headed back tot eh original crime scene. He had a good hunch that vampire vixen was responsible for the building fire. The hard would be getting the rest to believe this truth. It's not like one could just incinerate an evil spirit.... that matter would have to be taken to a different sort of authority.

*enigma-1* · 10-04-2002, 03:40 PM

*settles onto her favorite perch, going over the recent events in her mind*

What was she talking about? Needing a man's soul to protect herself? Isn't her own enough?

*Storm Wolf* · 10-04-2002, 11:16 PM

Jade stood on the rooftop surveying the hundreds of other buildings, Enya pacing by her side. "Sit my friend be at ease!" Jade hissed to the cat, who promtly did as she was told.

I can't believe you let that last man get away, let them all get away...you have enough power to take them all out! Enya's eyes had an eerie glow as she sent her thoughts to Jade "Yes, I know that...but we must be patient my friend, toy with them a little...see what makes man work in todays society."

Jade...i was thinking perhaps to know man we must partner up with a male Enya watched the shadows having a feeling of being noticed "Enya, that would go against the Divine Rule, you know that as well as I!" Flames spouted from her finger tips as she experimented with her newly revived magic yes , but we could always dispose of him when we are threw....we do not have to guarentee him his spared life for his deeds!

Jade nodded "Very well we shall try this plan of yours...but first we must find a male who hates man almost as much as both of us put together."

*R-iZZy* · 10-05-2002, 01:40 AM

((thank you Kali, for your sympathy. i really needed that. u really put a tear to my eye.))

Stealth kept his shell against the alleyway's dead-end wall. He knew that there was a pole that he could climb, in order to attain reaching that location he desired. He had no idea what was to happen, but it all seemed too easy for him.

Maybe they're expecting some freak to arrive at their toes, Stealth thought to himself.

He had no idea what to do, think, or execute. He was a pot of mixed emotions. Who knew what would be of his life? He had befriended a fellow mutant, his first-ever true friend (Tiger). But he hadn't seen her ever since the last meeting (Dark Seasons). She tried to teach him a lesson in trusting, but it was only so minimal that he could do so.

"This town is just too exciting to move from, Stealth murmured to himself.

He gripped the pole and slowly exceeded upward, to the rooftop. Things were going as planned, unsighted, as he always had been in his past infiltration missions with the MAU. He couldn't stand being the odd man out from the mutant world. He wanted to reveal himself to the world, but how? And how was interfering in other mutants' rendevous supposed to help? His thinking process had many faux pases, and he never attempted to fix them, but what was the point? He'd always remain a clod-blooded, relentless, assassin.

He had reached the center, until the pole broke, causing a loud noise that echoed through the skies. He had no choice but to drop back down, before he was suspected. He let go of the pole and fell below into a dumpster, but the real inquiry was if anyone had heard or spotted his fall...

**azure turtle** · 10-05-2002, 02:04 AM

(( Oh, I know whatcha mean about efeds, Ninja Nin. Posts had to be full of vivid descriptions... Competition gets really tough sometimes, which is why I haven't joined any efeds in a long while. Don't have much time nowadays. Hmm... AP and Honors?? Yep, I remember going through that, too. You've got my sympathies as well.

I'm still wondering what kind of character I can use in this RP... Hopefully I'll think of someone and jump aboard. ))

*Storm Wolf* · 10-05-2002, 03:49 PM

The loud noise startled Jade "Why didn't you tell me we were being followed?" she questioned her comrade.

Enya eyed Jade this one is quite the shadow lurker...a stealthy fellow, but he hasn't the pads on his paws to keep his step as quiet as mine! She quietly blended into the shadows, her fur the perfect cloaking device let us see what his intentions are...you speak with him if he decides to reveal himself.

Jade nodded and resumed producing fire from her palms as though she had never heard the sound.

*R-iZZy* · 10-07-2002, 08:00 AM

((OOC: Oh thank you, Azure... I give you my gratitude for showing sympathy. It's not easy maintaining a good rep while worrying about making it to UF (University of Florida) with all of these grades I have to accomplish. Anyway, as long as I'm able to rough (I've done that for years), then all I can do is cherish the sympathy you guys give me

))

Stealth lain in that dumpster, wondering to himself what was his problem. What had he learned from his missions in the MAU? It was to proceed with caution and stealth, and so far, he had been failing each trait to infiltration. He closed the dumpster lid, so that he could relieve some of his stress.

He looked at a garbage bag, next to himself, and started beating it with a balled-up fist.

What in the hell is wrong with me? Stealth thought to himself. If only he could find the root to his failing, maybe he missed Tiger. Maybe he missed Cory, or maybe knowing that Rex could possibly still be lurking the streets searching for Stealth's shell was a factor that affected him (from Dark Seasons - One). Whatever the cause what, it couldn't affect him now.

He gradually opened the dumpster lid and looked back outside, where he found plenty of rats scurrying around.

Food! he joshed to himself, in his mind. He pointed a pistol at it and placed a silencer on it. Stealth drew back the pistol and placed it back in his belt, where his glowing blade also stood.

Stealth hopped out of the dumpster and looked up at the roof of the building. He didn't know what was going on, but he was bound to find out. What was the purpose of his curiosity of what was up there? He found that broken pole piece and picked it up. He stared at it, then lunged it across the alleyway, as it landed on the ground with an echoing CLANK! Stealth wondered what was meant for him, and walked away from the scene.

I'm not giving up on getting to that roof, he thought to himself. but how? I'm Stealth, dammit, I should know!

*Storm Wolf* · 10-07-2002, 04:20 PM

Jade tapped her foot impatiently "If this fellow takes any longer, I shall have to go down and see what the problem is." Enya's thoughts reached her mind no he's coming...he wants to be here I can feel it!

Jade muttered something and shot a tiny bolt of electricity in Enya's direction "Don't correct me pussy cat!"

Enya appeared out of the shadows, her fur standing in all directions Do you have any idea how long it takes to groom myself?
Jade laughed "I don't know...but you'd better re-groom before our visitor arrives!"

I'll get you for this later Jade! Enya's thoughts were not in a harsh tone but rather an amusing one, and she grinned as she slunk back into the shadows.
