Session Start: Sun May 14 22:17:33 2000 * Logging #Lunar-IoG to '#lunar-iog.log' ~~ Session Start ~~ I'm ok, on the phone still ^^; << Just kick back and relax Bree-chan :) >> << for a bit anyway >> Ok, getting my sis on the net via phone =) We last left our intrepid heros as they roomed at the Great Library, in the wake of a starling discovery abotu Emili's true origin and powers, which her now blank memory had once again returned. << OK, that came otu wrong, but I'm tired. :) >> * Scott has been up all night, reading . The enxt goal seemed to be ahead in one Blue Spire... and hopefully the end of John's strange affliction. *** Zipo (zipo@sdn-ar-004oreugeP124.dialsprint.net) has joined #Lunar-IoG You all awaken in the large study, be it on beds, or large reading couches. * Tahn is nowhere in the Library, anyone who's observant may notice. * Adam opens his eyes, as he lays there motionless. * Scott didn't notice, too engrossed in his book...the biography he had started. * Elrika springs up, as she looks around observing her surroundings. Hmmm? What's this? A sorcerer was involved in Virtue's rise to power? Who would trust a man who uses that kind of black magic? * Johnathan lays with his eyes open, grumbling a little, not much feeling like getting up *Xavier stretches as he coughs up a hairball* * Johnathan` glances over at Scott from where he's sitting. "I donno, Scott." [Xavier] Umm, that was nasty. * Adam sits up. I'd certainly never trust someone who was using forbidden magic.. would you? * Johnathan` smiles. I trust you, John, does that tell you anything? It's not long before the door opens, producing the venerable Al-Shajar, bearing some tea, coffee and various other continental pleseantries. :) I'm still weirded out with John, till now even. * Adam smacks his forehead. How nice of you sir. * Johnathan sits up. "That your judgement lacks a little, Scott? He never even trusted himself." Jack seems engrossed in Leo's biography. ^^ Emili however immedialy snatches up a danish. :) still, it says here that this sorcerer used forces unknown to the guild. How strange. I thought the guild knew of all forms of the mystic arts. Leon just sits on a bench cleaning his gun... * Elrika grabs a biscuit and some tea. Right now I'm in the mood for a cold one. * Scott grabs some tea and continues reading. * Johnathan` chuckles. "They'd like to say they do... but who knows? Every now and again, something comes along and makes them wonder, doesn't it?" I guess so. With all that this group goes through, better yet...just kill me now. [Al-Shajar] Good morning, friends.. I trust your accomidations were not too cramped? Let me know when I'm needed, still working with sis ^^;;; << Sure thing Bree. :) >> I slept really good thank you. Oh, I spent the night reading. Mind if I hold on to this book for a while? At least you slept, Leon's snoring kept me up. [Al-Shajar] Certainly not, Scott.. that's quite a story. I slept well enough, sir. No we didn't. * Johnathan` shrugs. << lol. ^^ >> <> «ooc: John and John` are reminding me of those two gophers from the Looney Tunes cartoons. » Haylee is looking out the window at the sun, but takes some tea. :) << It's not their fault that they have virtually identical thought processes and stuff. ;) >> <> [Al-Shajar] So, have you all thought about my suggestion.. traveling to the Spire? «ooc: Damn...Sess 39...Congrats, Stor..you've already topped ToD's expectant count. » yeah...why not go? it's a long shot, but it's really the only shot we've got. << *bow* I couldn't do it without you. :) >> It can't hurt to try. Sure it can It can hurt a LOT I'm completely ready to go to the spire. [Haylee] I'm coming too.. any chance to help John is a chance we should take. Pay no attention to me. I think it's a good idea. The spire is the pretty building right? * Johnathan` frowns, working that sentence over in his mind. «ooc: I notice Johnathan` has all the punctuation. » well, let's get moving then. << I have it all, baby! All of it! Mwa ha ha ha.. >> [Al-Shajar] It's quite a journey north of here.. it is also a lot mroe than merely beautiful. It holds many secrets. <> Al, that's why we have a ship. 'Captain' Jack continues to drool oevr Leo's biography. ^^ Well, this trip should certainly shut Tahn up. He was a little pissed we stopped here to begin with... << gimme a minute im on the phone with my boss from work >> [Emili] Well, if we're going we should hurry before I get hungry again.. I need a big breakfast! :) well, we can't just go in blindly into the nihgt. It's morning. Yeah...that's why we stopped...to wait till morning. Right. But it IS morning now «ooc: You scare me, Scott-dono. » [Al-Shajar] Well, then if rall set, you should go.. the Library will be crowded soon.. * Scott rises from his seat...in a window, and readies himself to move on. << er if you're >> Might be well. I, for two, don't need to draw more attention to me.. we..? than needed... * Scott start out of the library. "Then come on." Al chuckles a little. "Agreed.. I wish you luck in curing yourself." :) Thanks. * Johnathan stands and follows Scott out. John, people will just mistake you for twins, that's all. I think.. we.. think.. I. we.. oh, whatever. Just.. thanks. * Johnathan` stands and heads out as well. [Al-Shajar] And to the lovely Emili.. I hope your destiny brings bliss ratehr than pain.. Twins? Maybe. Emili nods, and follows the group into the book-lined halls. Haylee takes up Johnathan's side, and Leon silently exits. Jack bumps into a wall, but finds the door in a minute. ^^ [Al-Shajar] Just tell the gatekeeper to let you through.. and farewell. -> [TheStoryteller] PING I wonder where Tahn went.... Probably on the ship I seriously doubt that...baka probably went straight to the spire. Al-Shajar exits back to his private study, as you take the spiral staircase back down to the main level, and eventually the lobby. The scholar from the previous night stands there, a little beside himself. ^^ I have to wonder something, though. It says that this magician was nigh immortal. I wonder if he's still alive. Do you think so, John? * Johnathan` walks towards the lobby, a lot beside himself. [Scholar] I wanted to apologize.. I ahd no diea that you'd help us so much with our research! << ok Im off the phone >> <> Immortality, Scott? Is that possible.. ..tell you what, if I'm ever reunited.. ask me that question in a couple hundred years, huh? a lot of mages and sorcerers have experimented in it...I don't doubt someone might have come up with the secret. * Johnathan` grins. Well what are we waiting for? and with what appears to be a demon sorcerer, I really wouldn't doubt he found the secret of immortality. Just a hunch. I'm sure it's possible, Scott. I think I'm just kidding about that, though. But.. I'm sure it's possible I want to go see the Spire! << one second.. >> There is so much I really don't comprehend about magic...the almost endless possibilities it offers. That's what I like about being a swordsman...you live or die by your skill with the blade. *** Bree is now known as Jessica That's all well and good.. Tee hee But what happens when you run into something the blade can't handle? You die... «ooc: You ask the mage for some help. » As you walk into the lobby, you notice a woman in the white robes of a priestess at a table, reading a history book.. an overcast hood obscures most of her face, but she's decidely beast blooded, though maybe not full. Or you get smart... and look for a life mage or enchanter. Hello << *V signs! >> * Elrika walks up to the woman. What you reading? Erlika, leave the woman alone. << umm elrika >> That's why John prefered this path, Scott. Many more possibilities, and all. << Erlika! ;) >> * Elrika taps the woman on her shoulder. * Jessica turns the book over, and says it's name "Some history book..." now there's a generic title if I've ever heard one. My name's Elrika, nice to meet you. Don't complain, Scott. not complaining, John....making light. * Johnathan` chuckles. "There's at leats one book in Vane's library titled 'Book' [Emili] First Families of Lunar? That's boring... :/ Why does she have to have a child's mind? Why? << Leats? Least. Go me >> It may seem boring to you, but i wouldn't mind knowing the first families. * Jessica smiles, from the safety of her hood "Nice to meet you too, I'm Jessica de Alkirk. And history isn't boring.. soon, all of this will be history too." Wait, that name sounds so familiar...wait a minute. soon, we all will be history too, but I hope it's not TOO soon. [Leon] ... I read books on you in school! How can you be alive? * Jessica raises a finger "Of couse it sounds familiar! I AAAM famous you know..." You know her Adam? what do you mean still alive? She looks young to me! She should hundreds of years odl1 <> [Haylee..] wait.. de Alkirk? Wasn't that the name of a famous Meribian in the storybooks? there is a Jessica de Alkirk in the history books, Elrika. She helped Dragonmaster Alex against Magic Emperoro Ghaleon a thousand years ago. Haylee, that's Jessica, one of the heroes of Lunar, woh defeated Ghaleon 500 years or so ago. Wow, she looks good for her age. Adam, it was a thousand. [Jack] Everyone knows that.. Mel founded the city! Well I was 500 years off...sue me. That makes you.. a descendant? Has to, she can't be THE Jessica. either that, or I really wan to know your beauty secrets. * Jessica folds her arms "No way.. I'm not diluded, I'm the real thing you know!" «ooc: Heh. Poor innocent John. » But how... * Jessica points at John "If buddy boy here can mess with time, you have to ask how?" Well.. one, or both of him... ^^; * Adam looks at John. Most interesting.. hoo boy...we're dealing with a temporal paradox if I ever saw one. This means the little dirty rumors were really true? What dirty rumors John? [Haylee] Impossible..? That some of the priesthood was.. well.. doing what I did «ooc: That Jess de Alkirk posed nude for Playmage. ^^; » << lol >> Making doubles of themselves? :P <> Odd that there's nothing about her to indicate.. shut up, Adam, that she time-travelled.. EEH!? What dirty rumors?! Seth.. you could tell. There was a sort of.. * Johnathan nods, looking at Jessica. "So.. who are you, really?" «ooc: He was a freak. » [Emili] Let's go to the ship.. I wanna go to the Spire! * Jessica rolls up her sleeves "Do you reaaaaally want me to prove who I am?" could be that Seth's time travel also brougth her here from the past too....but then again, what do I know about temporal mechanics. Well by all means go right ahead. If you have a mute spell, use it on Scott please. There's no time magic about her.. nothing like Seth. He kinda.. had a little left on him. And freeze Elrika while you are at it as well. Hey.. I never said it was my fault I'm here, now did I? * Elrika laughs and hugs Adam You're silly! Ugh! Then how'd you get here..? << Hint.. take her to Tahn! ;) >> If you really are who you say? << can << can't i make wild love to her instead? >> [Scholar] Sirs and madams, you're friend has already left for your transporatation.. ^^ * Jessica shrugs "How the heck should I know.. one day I'm in Meribia, next I'm here..." Hey where's Tahn? well, we can discuss this on the ship...let's get moving. * Scott starts toward the ship. «ooc: El... The scholar answered your question before you asked it. » Most odd.. He should meet you as well, he's very smart and probably can even help. [Haylee] We'd be honored to have you along, Ms. Alkirk.. :) *** Retrieving #Lunar-IoG info... this is already turning out to be one of those confusing days. *** TheStoryteller changes topic to '-= Chapter 39: Zlyk's Revenge | Location: Salyan Desert, Aboard the Destiny | 5017 $P =-' As a former Knight of Virtue, I will be honored to protect you. Really now, Scott? Really now, Scott? * Jessica smiles and nods "Of course I'll come with you! Better than staying in a crusty old library..." You all hoof it a bit to the imposing sight of the Dragonship. It's not long before your'e all aboard, tahn on deck, and Chrissy fiddling with the navigation panel. woah, got asked that in stereo....perfect * Tahn is waiting on the deck, watching the party board with Jessica... * Tahn blinks. * Tahn runs up to Jess, hugging her tight. "And where were you?" O_ox; * Jessica flails "Gak! What's this weirdo doing hugging me?!" * Tahn looks down and sweatdrops. "Oh...Oh, my. Uh...case of mistaken identity. I guess I lose..." ^^; [Haylee] Tahn.. this is.. Jessica de Alkirk... ^^ * Tahn coughs and gasps for air. << agh Nelson came to my window Storen >> PARDON?! << That is a ref from somewhere.. Locke? :) >> * Jessica knocks on Tahn's forehead "Ahem.. can you let me down now? ^^;" Tahn no Ahou. «ooc: Purim. » * Tahn puts Jess down. "Sorry about that..." ^^; he called him an asshole? ^^; Leon just shrugs and goes below. Jack ehads to the wheel, talking to Chrissy about some technobabble or another. << Ah, yes.. the sacrifice scene in the pot. >> <> * Jessica straightens her robes out "That's okay.. no harm done.. just dont grab me again.." Ahou, if said right.. sounds like someone with a mouth full saying Asshole ^^; ...No problem. And I'm really sorr about that. It's just, from a distance, you look just like someone I know... Who do you know that looks like her? Chrissy leans over. "So who's the new girl? :o" Jessica de Alkirk, Chrissy. * Tahn looks up at Adam. "I'm surprised you can't tell just by how I originally reacted. * Jessica waves "Yep! THE Legendary Jess..." ...Bree? [Chrissy] You're jerkin' my starter chain. ^^ * Tahn closes his eyes and sighs. "Yeah." * Adam stares at Jessica's face. Just wishful thinking, I guess. apparently not, Chris..and there is a likeness to Bree-chan....a slight one, but definately a likeness. * Jessica sweatdrops at Adam "Want an autograph or something? ^^;" No... Just that you do look like one of our friends. Heh... [Chrissy] Ok.. wait.. lemme guess... ahem.. right.. time travel and stuff. But cuter. apparently. * Tahn stares daggers at Adam. Ishtar comes on deck. ^^ * Johnathan` chuckles. * Adam sweatdrops as he can't believe he said that. Ohhhh Hi...Ishtar. [Ishtar] Good morning, everyone... oh.. is that Bree with you? I was just..ummmm admiring Jessica's face...I mean eyes...no i mean resemblence. * Adam sweatdrops. [Ishtar] No, wait.. I'm sorry miss... ^^ * Scott just gets out his sharpening stone and proceeds to sharpen his katana. Chrissy, get us started to the Blue Spire. [Ishtar] I was hoping she'd show.. any word from her yet? :/ * Jessica sweatdrops a bit "No.. I'm not whoever this Bree is, for like the fifth time" ...Ish... No, no word =( I miss her. * Tahn sighs and pulls the note out of his pocket. * Tahn hands it to Ishtar. Are you happy now? [Ishtar] *looks down at the note* I see... :/ Is everything ok Tahn? * Adam puts his hand on Tahn's shoulder. (m) I don't wanna talk about it. Chrissy waves a hand in Jack's face, and he turns the key. ^^ Ok, I understand. [Chrissy] Geez, stop reading about Leo already, and drive! Goddess! ^^ [Jack] But I was right at the good part! * Tahn rubs his wrist. * Scott starts humming a small tune that sounds a lot like the Eagles song "Wasted Time". * Johnathan stares out at the horizon, muttering to himself << Tahn have you been spanking the monkey too much lately? >> «ooc: I was considering that, but Duran Duran's "Ordinary World" fits Tahn better. » «ooc: No. » * Jessica gives off a sad look "Hey.. I'm sorry for making you sad, ok?" No, it's not you. * Tahn sighs and stares at the sky. << ok just checking, your wrists seemed bruised lol >> .oO(I failed her is all...) << wow so little OCC without Lucs and nygs >> * Scott just keeps on sharpening his blade, and humming the song. The only question is, where did a swordsman on Lunar learn the tune to a song from thousands of years in humanity's past. «ooc: lol » The Destiny comes out of idle, and slides off shore into the inner sea! *** Retrieving #Lunar-IoG info... *** TheStoryteller changes topic to '-= Chapter 39: Zlyk's Revenge | Location: Salyan Desert, Caraveti Basin | 5017 $P =-' * TheStoryteller goes http://www.rpgcafe.net/IoG/Music/Dragonship1.rm to listen * Jessica reaches out for Tahn's shoulder "Hey.. why not talk to get your mind off it?" «ooc: Same place Tahn learned to quote Shakespeare. » ...I'd rather not. :\ *** Retrieving #Lunar-IoG info... Well.. I dont mean about her, just other things... ~the years keep rushing on...I remember what you told me..before you went out on your own. "Sometimes to keep it together, you've gotta leave it alone"~ *** TheStoryteller changes topic to '-= Chapter 39: Zlyk's Revenge | Aboard Dragonship Destiny, Caraveti Basin | 5017 $P =-' << I suck. ^^ >> << why do you say that? >> Emili leans on the railing, the sun shining in her face. << Quoting Gayo. ^^ >> ...Well...There isn't much else. «ooc: nani? :O » ~so you can get on with your search, baby...and I can get on with mine. But I know some day we will find...that it wasn't really wasted time.~ Haylee puts a hand on Johnathan's shoulder... well.. one fo them anyway. ^^ * Johnathan` glances at Haylee Of course there is.. um, talk about food or something.. ^^; Uh...Why? ^^; [Haylee] Don't worry John.. we'll set things right.. I'll get you back in one piece. * Jessica swats Tahn's back "To get your mind off things!" Perhaps * Tahn sighs. "I wish it was that easy." ..yeah,, ..just might. * Scott looks up at the sky himself, his mind wandering to a place far in the west of Lunar. * Johnathan` smiles a bit [Ishtar] *looks at the note* Wherever she is, hope Bree's safe. My mind may try to change the subject, but the pain doesn't leave. * Jessica sweatdrops, looking like she really wants to start asking questions about who Bree is, bitting her lip to stop herself the pain of separation for one you really care for never does, Tahn. Believe me. *** Joseph (someone@nas-20-54.la.navipath.net) has joined #Lunar-IoG * Scott closes his eyes as he sheathes the katana in his hand. "I know that all too well." *** Retrieving #Lunar-IoG info... *** TheStoryteller sets mode: +m *** Joseph is now known as Dekar_Zol The waves crash softly against the ships's hull, as it makes steady progress northwards. The towering blue shape soon appears, jutting out of the sandy environ like a huge arrow pointing towards heaven... «ooc: Hi dek ;P » [Ishtar] *blinks* Tahn.. what's wrong with this note? Eh? * Jessica looks down at the ships deck "Bad spelling?" Seperation.. heh. Too true, Scott Ishtar shows Tahn Bree's note, indicating a few spots near the bottom in a dull red... Uh... * Tahn sweatdrops. "I...I really don't know what that is, Ish.." Ishtar furrows her brow in concern. .oO(Idiot...You can't even do something that simple right.) * Jessica peeks over at the note "Red ink?" or maybe blood...I hope not. Must have accidentially spilled something on it or something. ^^; "Who must've? Her? You? That girl?" *indicates Ishtar* or a paper cut? Me. ^^; The note wasn't like this when I found it. ^^; [Ishtar] Tahn.. i hope you're not taking this hard.. I know Bree means a lot to you.. :/ I...I'm fine. Really. .oO(Shut up, Tahn...you don't want them to think something's wrong... you don't want them asking questions..shut up..) well, try to perk up, Tahn. I'm sure Bree'll pop up somewhere...people just don't vanish into thin air. Yeah... A rim of mountains soon appear a bit inland, blocking the way somewhat of the ship. looks like we hoof it from here. [Chrissy] Ok everyone... hangon.. going to flight mode! [Jack] That's my line Chrissy.. * Jessica points at the letter "And it sounds like she's taking a side trip, that's not a final goodbye letter... you're getting too worked up over nothing." [Chrissy] Shut up.. I love this! :D ...Sometimes, a journey takes longer than any expectations. << [Jack] That's my wine [Chrissy] Your what? [Jack] Wine..my wine! [Chrissy] Bad Jack...offering me wine!>> The Destiny slows, as the mettallic wings begins to humm and whirr to life... you soon slide upwards, cresting the rise! * TheStoryteller goes http://www.rpgcafe.net/IoG/Music/Dragonship2.rm to listen I bet she's probably way ahead of you, already to whereever it is you guys are heading. ... I wouldn't put that past Bree, Tahn. * Scott is now lost in thought...his eyes closed and almost seeming alseep. She's impatient, and Althena knows she doesn't have half the common sense given a kiwi. ...John... Do kindly shut up. << bathroom break >> I call them like I see them, Tahn. * Jessica sweatdrops, and thumbs at John "He's not too nice, is he?" You're also half the man you used to be at the moment. STP! «ooc: hehe ;) » Less than that << ~half the man I sued to be.....~ >> Far, far less.. «ooc: Half the man you sued? » [Haylee] John... :( <<~She's half the man..I am.~>> << back >> The spire grows very large, as you go over the mountain into a secluded valley... You can see the archaic stonework and crystalline blue shimmering in the sun. ... *** Retrieving #Lunar-IoG info... You also see something else. *** Retrieving #Lunar-IoG info... .oO(Well... at least I can tie up one loose thread before I go in above my head...) The Frisches BIG BOY! * Tahn blinks and looks closely at the "something else" I think what I'm trying to say is that Bree has a lovely habit of rushing into situations the rest of us would sooner.. avoid? That's pretty! * Elrika stares with her eyes lighting up. The forest of trees has a few.. no make that MANY footprints nearby. Obviously something the size of an army passed through. [xavier] Its just a damn old blue colored spire. Nothing to AWE about. *** Retrieving #Lunar-IoG info... Oh my. Looks like we'll have a bit of a scuffle here. * Scott opens his eyes and takes sketch pad out, starting back on a pic he was working on a while back. *** TheStoryteller changes topic to '-= Chapter 39: Zlyk's Revenge | Aboard Dragonship Destiny, Before the Blue Spire | 5017 $P =-' A scuffle? ..lovely.. just what we need. Just pray to Althena they're heading somewhere else.. The glade where the ship comes to a stop seems peaceful, though. Well I'll be. A scuffle is something I'm in the mood for. Fighting...I hate it. [Chrissy] Well, either this becomes a great tourist attraction, or old beast boy is here. ^^ Beast boy? Oh, yay. Just who we need to see. same here, Adam. and I just sharpened Misogi. Here? [Emili] Mr. Sneezy! Zlyk, John. Leon comes out on deck, somewhat apathetic. ^^ Or maybe a stampeed came by? stampeed of what, Jessica...Tourists? The Blue spire isn't really a tourist attraction. As a matter of fact, it's about we well guarded as Virtue's Citadel. << Or maybe Lynna ate another Town...BAD Lynna >> «ooc: lol » I think we owe Zlyk a beating.. * Jessica shrugs "Gypsies? ^^;" [Jack] Well, we got to get off the ship and go inside anyway... no bigger parking spots. ^^ ok. I have a little payback that I owe Zlyk myself, John. It's not like I'll be of much help.. I doubt between the two of me I could muster half as much magic as Tahn can bring to bear. Whatever you can 'muster' is better than nothing... I'm sure you'll be more help than I am. The silence continues for a few more moments.. I don't know if I'm in much shape to fight at a moment. Then I'll take up the slack, Tahn. /ooc Oh, BTW, Bree, Scott... stampede. «ooc: GRBLZRK » <> Suddenly there is a shot and a canister lands on the deck with a thump. it was a spelling correction ...oh shit. O_ox Me and Xavier will help out the best we can1 * Tahn backs up quickly. ^^; Before you can react the air is filled with choking gas! << umm ! >> * Adam starts to cough. * Jessica pulls up the robes to her mouth and nose "Crap!" What's this? * Elrika covers her mouth. * Scott tries to cover his nose and mouth with his gi. * Jessica kicks at the can, trying to return it * Johnathan starts coughing You hear a booming voice. "Now we have them! CHAAAAAAARGE!!" * Johnathan` tries to hold his breath and chant at the same time, eyes watering I know that voice! * Adam continues to cough. By the time the gas clears, the deck is filled with soldiers dropping from the trees in camoflauge armor! * TheStoryteller goes http://www.rpgcafe.net/IoG/Music/Struggle.rm to listen * Tahn just stands there, not giving a damn what happens to him. * Jessica folds her arms "I should have stayed with the books..." Look they blended in with the trees. On the ground you see the man himself, axe in tow, with another regiment.. Zlyk! Well well well...look at who it is. * Scott draws his sword. "Ok...this is the straw that broke the camel's back." * Jessica elbows Tahn lightly "Hey.. who's the lumber jack?" [Haylee] Oh no! * Adam screams. " ZLYK! You coward, sending your lackeys after us instead of yourslef? " [Chrissy] Crap on a stick! :o * Tahn points to Jack. "You mean him?" No no.. the one in green [Zlyk] I'm coming for you Adam! But first let's see you squirm! I think she means old Sneeze boy. Zlyk, captain of Virtue's Guard. Oh. Sneeze-boy. Yeah, what Scott said. Oh, please.. Like these... ha.. soldiers.. can stop us? <> [Leon] Everyone.. get off the ship to the Spire, we'll hold them off. ... Fine, fine. I'll go when everyone else does. Leon blows one of the soldier's heads clear off! «ooc: Which head? » Haylee dodges a sword swing, and Emili whacks one with her stick, Rosebud! * Scott slices a soldier in half as he starts to leap from the ship. * Jessica grabs for Tahn's collar to drag him to the spire "Then come on, we're leaving!" [Xavier] awww come on!!!! That's gross Leon! Jack draws Barbarella. "And I just ahd this thing waxed!" ^^ * Adam runs off to the spire, with sword ready in his hands. *** Retrieving #Lunar-IoG info... How'd you know my last name was Bobbit?! * Tahn doesn't resist, which makes Jessica drag a limp body around ^^; *** TheStoryteller changes topic to '-= Chapter 39: Zlyk's Revenge | Before the Blue Spire | 5017 $P =-' * Elrika picks Xavier up as they run towards the spire. * Johnathan looks back and forth, then follows the others towards the spire You debark the ship whil Haylee, Emili, Chrissy, Jack, and Leon hold off the knights up top! * Jessica drags Tahn like a bag of potatos behind herself, heading for the Spire * Johnathan` heads after himself Unfortunately, this emans you land right in the middle of Zlyk's face. ^^ lol, never seen anyone lemming themself [Zlyk] Hahaha! So you have a pair after all, do you! Just try to get through me!! Hello there Zlyk. >> COMBAT! << * Adam punches Zlyk in the face. " Nice to see you again! " * Tahn sighs. "You want to fight? What the hell ever." Be ready for anything Xavier ok? * Jessica takes out a pair of daggers "I really wish whoever brought me here would have left me with my weapons..." * Scott brandishes his blade. "This should be fun. By the way, we're the collection agency. You're 5 months late in paying on your ass. We're here to collect." >> Enemy Front: Elite Knight A-D [Xavier] I've taken this lug on before, he's nothing. >> Enemy Back: Zlyk, Captain of Virtue's Guard << rows? >> <> Front << front >> << Back! >> <> << Front! >> Zlyk swats Adam away with his huge new Axe... spitting some blood on the floor. any healers, keep us healthy....the rest of us'll deal with damaging the son of a bitch. << Yeah, that's right.

He's running out. * Adam grins. <> [Zlyk] I'm through playing, boy! << hehehe >> Who said I'm here to play Zlyk? Can we just plow through him now? I want to see the Spire.. ^^ Time to see if our old spar's, actually taught me a thing or two about bringing you DOWN. << one sec.. >> hey, either John 1 or 2....how about a little raise in the old strength dept. I have a plan. << time for them to all get a big surprise from Zlyk LOL huh ST? >> [Zlyk] You're right Adam.. you're here to DIE! I'm going to do what I should ahve done logn ago.. no prissy Evol to save you! <> Do NOT call us that, Scott. what other choice do I have? There's 2 of you after all. >> Since you jumped into the group of guards... they get the upepr hand! The party is surrounded and surprised! [Zlyk] Men, attack! cowardly asshole. [Xavier] Don't worry El, I won't let NO one touch you! The helmeted guards advance on you! * Elrika smiles at Xavier. hey, Zlyk, quit hiding behind your men and fight us. * Adam brings his shield up. Crap.. the books were way safer.. >> Elite Knight A slices at Jessica! No point in talking to him Scott, I know Zlyk oh to well. He's going to try and weaken us, so he can come in for the kill. We have to NOT let him get that advantage. yeah, he's a coward for hiding behind a bunch of mud grunts.

Althena knows I had to. Once and for all... Time for the student, to best his master! Zlyk picks up his bloody axe, a distant look in his eyes... like an animal.. Do it, Adam..... [Zlyk] I'LL GIVE YOU YOUR LAST LESSON!!! Come on Zlyk, you and I have waited too long. >> Decisive Battle!! << >> vs. Adam vs Zlyk << >> er Adam vs Zlyk! ^^ << * TheStoryteller goes http://www.rpgcafe.net/IoG/Music/Herobattle.rm to listen I can't help with this one. I think I'll go back to being depressed. Anyone wanna join me? ^_- [Zlyk] Time to throw away... the tarsh.. you are a disgrace...!! I think I'll go back to the sketch I was working on.. * Scott gets out his pad and starts back to working again. "The trash"? Look in a mirror, bucko. * Jessica swats Tahn "Dont you go digging yourself a pity hole..." >> Zlyk attacks Adam! Hey! yeah yeah....I hear ya...what the fuck ever. * Adam just stands there. >> 8! 2! Miss! 6! << thanks for the support guys >> << :P >> Hmm.... >> Adam takes no action. <> >> Combat Round 2! I was KIDDING, Jess-sama. Is that the best you can do Zlyk? ...Adam...what the HELL are you doing?! [Zlyk] FIGHT BACK! YOU PIECE OF DUNG! Hmm...I think...yeah, that looks just about right. >> Zlyk attacks Adam again! * Jessica wags a finger at Tahn "You better be.. I wont let you do it even if you tried." ...Ah. Gotcha. ^_- >> 10! 7! 11! 13! Doing exactly the opposit of what he expects Tahn. >> Adam takes no action again. hey, Tahn...can I ask you a question? Do you think this really suits us? Come on MASTER Zlyk...oh captain of the guard. >> Combat Round 3! * Tahn smiles. "I catch the point exactly. * Tahn looks at Scott. "Nani?" * Scott shows Tahn the pad, and his unfinished sketch of the group, only Ishtar's wings don't look mechanical...they look more angelic. [Zlyk] You damn coward! You don't even deserve to be a knight! You deserev to ROT! >> Zlyk attacks Adam again! * Jessica scans the picture over to see who's in it "So who's who in this?" >> Miss! 13! 6! 9! 9! Now... * Adam looks at Zlyk as his eyes begin to turn white. The dust from the ground begins to levitate off the ground. As Zlyk is now stopped. Behind Adam one by one you start seeing soldiers of the 13th Regiment fade in. I like it... there's just one thing, though... I know...Bree-chan's missing...you know she wanted to be left out of it. Zlyk falter from his haze upon seeing the phantoms. Surrounding him is Nicolette, Turless, Joe, and Popoi. " You never got to see how good my regiment was...let's show you our Pride...the Pride of the 13! " Put her back, or take me out too. I was going to, Tahn...this pic is still unfinished. The whole group finds their attention held by the ghostly entourage... o_o >> Adam invokes Pride of the 13! <> *** Lucca (dinner@ip93.san-francisco31.ca.pub-ip.psi.net) has joined #Lunar-IOG *** ChanServ sets mode: +o Lucca [Zlyk] Relying on your dead comrades... it won't save you..!

O_o » Now, as I was saying... [Jack] Heh.. I still think Barbarella is a better axe! :D Lets move on. Yup ^^; * Tahn whistles and claps, consciously letting his right sleeve slide down, seeing if he'll get a reaction... «ooc: Hot damn I missed something ;_; » .oO(Oh please.....If I didn't know better, I'd swear that Jessica is actually Bree.) * Haylee blinks, and looks at Jessica. O_o [Emili] Mr. Sneeze go bye-bye! ;) [Ishtar] Oh Adam.. that was.. so brave... ^^ That was for you....mom. Mr. Sneeze got unseamed from asshole to appetite. * Adam smiles at Ishtar. Emili got stupid again? (whispered) ^^; * Jessica looks over at Haylee "I know I'm famous and all.. but does everyone have to stare? ^^;" << She's back to normal.. well almost. :) >> (w) It's more of a joke than anything now. Ah... ^^ Well...it's just....^^; [Leon] ... let's go. I hope there's a goddess statue in there. * Haylee sighs and decides the answers'll be revealed to her soon enough anyway. .oO(It's either not her, or she's doing a damn good job of keeping her cover..) [Chrissy] Yeah, go on... the Spire's waiting.. get John fixed up! * Tahn slides his sleeve down. John...Right! ^^ *** Zipo (zipo@sdn-ar-004oreugeP325.dialsprint.net) has joined #Lunar-IoG * Scott whispers to Tahn "if I didn't know better I'd swear that Jessica is actually Bree." From all around you hear a clapping. * Scott goes back to his stance. ...Oh great. Clapping always spells doom. -_- (w) She's doing a good job of keeping it secret if she is...she would've reacted otherwise. Or a golf tournament... An elderly man steps into view.. it's.. Al-Shajar. * Tahn chuckles. [Al-Shajar] Impressive... you really are legends. Oh.. it's Alakazam... man, you scared me. I was about to go right into my succession technique. ...The old guy from the library...okay, what's up here..? There's no way you could've gotten here this quickly by foot. I don't know...but I don't like it... :/ [Al-Shajar] Of course, your story has yet to be finished, doesn't it? ...Ah. Makes sense now.... ...Lure? likely. In a swirl of green, the man grows young, his roebs turning a soft emerald, grey ahir replaced by brown, and the body of a teenager. It's undoubtedly... Lure. Hey its Lure! Damn...you're everywhere, aren't you? o-o Why am I suddenly not surprised? * Tahn nudges Jessica "By the way...how'd you know his name?" * Scott gets out of his fighting stacne. * Jessica nudges back "I was at the library baka.." [Lure] I'm not everywhere, but I'm always close to you all.. I'm here so that you can fuffil your destinies. (q) Point. Also, why'd you call me "baka"? Something about that doesn't much seem...you. [Lure] Isn't that right Jessica... ^-^ * Haylee blinks. O_o * Tahn smirks. "Why do I have the feeling...the other shoe's about to drop?" * Jessica looks up at Tahn "Because you're being dumb.." << um guys i gotta go =( >> <> << see yaaaaa >> << one mroe sec! ^^ >> * Tahn keeps smirking "I figured. ^_^ <> * Jessica smile at Lure "Hai, destinys can be a nice thing..." << ok! >> Nite nite << one more sec you get ST >> «ooc: ^^ I got to go soon too. ^^ Hurry mista Storen! :D FOR THE CHILDREN! :D And Etienne Jewlers...and...and...the lobsters of Maine! :D » [Lure] Did you find your truth, Ms. de Alkirk? Or you still playing your little games? ;) (vq) You can stop trying to trick us... [Lure] You're not fooling your friends, you know. * Haylee taps her foot in a cute manner. ^^ [Lure] Why don't you share with them, and stop running away for once.. you have a good reason not to now, isn't that so? * Jessica smiles, taking down her hood to show who she really is "Yeah, I found my truth... and I only lied one third.. my first name isn't Jessica, but the last names are De Alkirk..." *** Jessica is now known as Bree wait a minute, Lure. Are you saying what we've been guessing? Jessica is actually Bree-chan? * Tahn blinks. "De Alkirk? I thought it was Ann Fantine..." No...I think she's saying she's related to her somehow? I guess Bree's a descendant of the legendary priestess. [Lure] She's very related. In fact, she's.. her daughter. * Tahn wideeyes. "Excuse me?" Her...what? O_ox/ * Bree shakes her head "Well, I'm a direct decendant.. like Lure said ^^" * Tahn looks at Bree. That...well, it explains a lot... But...how? That was like...a thousand years ago! O_o How? That's sorta impossible? «ooc: My mom says hi, Stor ^^ » let's not mind how. She's back with us and that's what counts, ok? * Bree suddenly stops Tahn's foot "That's for the wrist.. I seen that when you pulled up your sleeve 'accidentally'..." [Lure] Many years ago, a jealous time magi wished to marry into the Alkirk family. When Jessica fell in love with Kyle, and marreid him, he swore revenge.. stomps << HI! :D >> * Tahn smiles. "I see you still care after all, Bree-sama." ^-^ [Lure] This was accomplished by spiriting their daughter away where they could never see her... it was sad really. :/ * Haylee frowns. :/ what matters is that Bree's back with us...so let's just get all this taken care of. Hai. * Bree sticks her tongue out at Tahn "Of course I do baka..." * Tahn hugs Bree. "And this is for thinking you weren't you before." ^_^ [Lure] But, somethign drew you to this era.. maybe the fact your'e needed.. maybe your foster father's loneliness.. * Scott pats Bree on the back. "Glad to see ya again, Bree." [Lure] Allw e know is your present is now, with your friends... and your future is bright. But you have to hurry. [Ishtar] Bree.. I never thought.. * Bree flails in the sudden hug "Maybe.. but, if I die in this death hug I'll never know ^^;" * Tahn lets go of Bree. "Lure has a point. Concentrate on the task on hand...there's plenty of time to reminisce later." well, I kinda figured out that Jessica was Bree back in the battle. the similarities in the fighting styles was the give away. ^^ Yeah... I could tell when I first saw her. * Bree scritches her head "That part I couldn't fake.. I dont know any magic ^^;" But I knew there had to be a reason she was doing this... I kept quiet about it. well, let's get in there. Where'd you go, anyways, Bree? << how much more ST? am i needed? >> [Lure] Go into the Blue Spire, to the rooms connected by fate... and remember, if you trust in your friends, being worlds apart is like being right by their sides... * Bree scritches the back of her head "Weeell.. back to the Diamond dreams, and I brought presents!" * Scott starts into the spire. "I guess destiny awaits us. Ready, Guys?" O_o Nani?! That's a 3 week journey from here! «ooc: Must...resist...saying...ff5...inspired...line! :o » * Bree points at Lure "He gave me a lift. Same way he can be everywhere." [Lure] I'll see you inside. Oh and Bree, sorry if that transport was a bit rough. ^-^ I...see. Have fun with Liza? Lure winks, and vanishes in a cloud of wind blown leaves. * Tahn smirks maliciously. It was fine, no bruises ^^ Bye Lure! and what do you mean, presents, Bree-chan? ^_^x «ooc: Lure IS Tuxedo mask! » <> Are we going to see you again? «ooc: Wakes up and hops a buch ^^ » * Bree blushes "Do you want to keep bugging me or do you want your present Tahn?" We'll see him again...everything is coming together now... ^_^ I don't know. Which would you rather have? ^_- << got to end.. good yes! >> < yes >> * Bree reaches into her robes, handing Tahn a whip, then passing out the rest of her hidden arsenal to their proper users «ooc: zzz » << ST I gotta go >> «ooc: Tahn...don't you have school? ^^; » * Tahn blinks. "This is it? I expected more. Money perhaps." ^_- «ooc: Shh! ^_- » Tahn recieves Dragon Whip! Ap +100, chance of KO! Haylee recieves Bloodseeker Arrows.. Bow Ap +20, H% +10 << byeeeee >> ...Hey...Thanks a lot, Bree! ^_^ << wait i better get a weapon >> <> You think I'd part with money? You're crazy... Emili receives Daemon Lance! << how about EL? >> * Bree smiles at Haylee "You're welcome..." * Tahn looks at Bree. "We need a good long talk after we do what we need to in the Spire, miss de Alkirk..." * Tahn smiles. [Emili] Ooo.. I need a new name for this! Name it Pappy! How about... * Haylee winks. ^_- * Tahn smiles. "Windy." .oO(There is one person I'd love to talk to right now. But, it's a month and a half journey back there.) I'll say Mr... you have some explaining to do... Indeed I do. I made some stupid decisions while you were gone. *** Adam has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving) *** Elrika has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving) See? This is why you can't run out on me. I couldn't possibly keep alive without your common sense to beat me back into shape! ^_- hey, guys. I have a major question. Yeah? Hum? Do any of you think it possible to stop back by the Aoiya before we go into our fated battle? We will need to restock our supplies prior anyway. Not my decision - I'm just here to make sure we don't get killed. ^_^ Um...I don't think there's any time, Scott. :/ * Bree folds her arms "I'm not always going to be around to be your conscious Tahn..." .oO(I can' tell them my other reason for going back. Seeing Haylee and John, and also Bree and Tahn only makes me wish to return more.) [Ishtar] Scott, this is serious.. Lure said to hurry..w e should go while the area's clear.. * Tahn smiles. "You don't need to be. Tell a puppy no enough times...only makes it learn to be obedient. Anyways... I mean into the FINAL battle...not here. Shall we go into the spire? * Scott walks into the spire. I'd like to get some answers. [Ishtar] I'm sure we'll ahve time.. * Tahn walks to the spire, as well. The winds blow by.... the doorway to the Blue Spire is open, and the way to the truth is finally unobstructed. All that is left is to enter, with courage for what is to come... ~~ SESSION END ~~ Session Close: Mon May 15 02:46:01 2000
