Morimune High School RP

The "Tsu's" were becoming a real "two in one": The red ghost was slowly integrating into their body, with the cyan ghost inside their body dragging it in. In the mean while, the tomboyish-looking "demon" was in a catatonic state.

Ts-Ts-Tsuhiro? asked in their mind the frail sister Tsukime, while Tsuhiro, formerly an incorporeal voice, replied Tsukime... Tsukime... from the steam forming in the mindscape.

Outside the red ghost was enveloping their body, getting dragged into their hearts by the cyan ghost. In the mindscape, the steam was getting a humanoid shape...

Ignius said, "And so, for the sake of the future, I have created this."

The box deteriorated and exposed a revolver and eight bullets. "These bullets have been keyed to Yuki's DNA, and when fired in her immediate area will seek her out and inflict the most fatal wound possible, in order to make sure she dies quickly and at least, mercifully."

However, meanwhile with Tsuhiro and Tsukime, something strange occurred. The steam was dispersed, and inside of the mindscape, the cyan ghost and the red ghost were forced apart again by something and then brought inward.

The entire area had changed tremendously.

Everything was white, but it seemed to be raining black snow. The sky had no clouds, and no stars. That was when a gigantic, bloodshot red eye opened in the sky, as if it was merely a part of a face.

Countless, fleshless arms suddenly appeared and grabbed the spirit representing Tsuhiro and began to drag him away toward the massive eye.

Dissonant, screeching chanting-cum-music began to play, together with a deeper, more malevolent voice in German.

John checked his head. He felt a similar sensation. Something was taking over... And he tried to fight it, while hiding any signs of struggling.

He grabbed hold of the gun, and examined it. It was finely crafted, and pretty, indeed. But somehow, the feeling he experienced before returned...it did not let up.

Tsuhiro's struggled with the tentacles, while Tsukime's, recovering from the shock, grabbed hold of him and was attempting to stop it.

In real world, Tsuhiro's organs (liver, kidneys, several muscles, one of the two hearts... heck, practically half of their body) were beginning to fail and they were spitting floor. Their voices were once again together. "SAVE US! PLEASE SAVE US!"

In the mindscape, both spirits were struggling to keep together, both chanting at unison THE CHAOS QUEEN IS TWO IN ONE! BOTH HAVE THE LIFE, BOTH MUST KEEP IT! THE BROTHERS THAT FATE SEPARATED ONCE MUST BE BROUGHT TOGETHER AGAIN! Tsukime's cyan spirit clings to Tsuhiro's red spirit, like if she preferred to be dragged with him rather than stay behind. You take him, I'm coming along! menaced the cyan ghost of Tsukime.

Ignius smiled at John, "Do you understand the monumental importance of your task? If you require time to train...well, I control time and space in this dimension, so you will have all the time you need."

This was just one task out of many assigned by Fate. The series of events was proceeding well. The others were going well also...

However, the organs, oddly, seemed to freeze in the midst of failing. As if frozen in time. And then six black spell circles formed around her, and Lyle shouted, "Ghkt, dammit, god dammit! Erebus Spell Circles! Who the hell is making these?" As he said this, the organs began to go back into working order. However, this was forced by a level of telekinesis rarely seen in the world, and as such, was painful to an extreme.

The eye broke open in the middle and bright red blood struck Tsukime in the mindscape and forced her apart from Tsuhiro as the skinless human arms brought him closer and closer to the bloody eye-fissure.

A deep, dark voice spoke to Tsukime, "You are correct about one thing, little girl. But worry not, your brother will return to you on a day approved by Fate itself."

I think...I'll think about it.

John was exerting an ungodly amount of effort in that phrase. He could a voice. It was louder than anything that has inhabited his mind, and it was clawing out.

And unlike the last time, it was successfully dragging him away from control.

Same voice will split, come next post...

Tsukime gets thrown into the mindscape while she sees her brother getting dragged into the eye. Tsuhiro smiles at her and begins to shine in red, while Tsukime begins to shine in sky blue before he got dragged right into the rift, saying Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on you... as I always did.

Also, while Tsuhiro's organs are getting back online in real life, Tsukime splits in two entities in the mindscape: The cyan shining Tsukime, who was plain silver white haired, grey eyed and light fair skinned, more like Tsukime's actual color, and the magenta shining Tsukime, who was wildly dark red haired, red eyed and dark skinned, dark like the lines Tsukime sports on her body.

Both were in the uniform she was wearing on the real life, but Cyan!Tsukime's was tidier and cleaner, while Magenta!Tsukime's was messy and darkened. Well, said M-Tsukime, It seems Tsuhiro left me in charge of protecting the little girl... again.

C-Tsukime realized... You! You're the shadow of my brother's organs, right? The one who had been with me since....

Since birth, yeah, replied M-Tsukime, I'm the reason you're the 'Queen of Chaos'. In fact... I am the 'Queen of Chaos', dear. The grin M-Tsukime was sporting was kinda startling, but then began to giggle and added Girl, I'm just kidding! she was laughing her ass off, while Tsukime was not amused.

So..., replied C-Tsukime and a pretty annoyed tone, You're just the part of me that loves our current situation, right?

M-Tsukime nods sporting a beaming smile and replies I'm the one that makes the chaos, which... well, indeed makes me the 'Queen of Chaos', now that I think about it.... C-Tsukime sighs.

In real life the dark lines on Tsukime grow and her silver hairs are slowly turning redder, along with her grey right eye, matching the other color.

Tsuhiro was not the reason for Tsukime's quirkiness, but actually it was Tsukime's background "voice"... Yeah, she now has a permanent split personality. DO YOU HAVE ANY TROUBLE WITH THAT?!

No, I do not. And yes, Ignius can be in more than one place at once in his dimension with nobody the wiser.

Ignius smiled and said to John, "Then you can have all the time in the world to think." Well, it was true, especially given what he had said about his relationship to time in this place.

Meanwhile, deeper in the World of Precipice, at a secure location deep within the core of the dimension, far away from anybody's ability to detect, a ghostly manifestation of Ignius appeared and smiled a little, "The brothers separated by Fate...I shall commandeer this prophecy, Fate. Have you any objections?"

A huge Goddess-like figure spoke from deep within a pit like area, "EQUATIONS BALANCED, LORD IGNIUS. NO OBJECTIONS."

With that, a tube covered in strange wires came up, filled with green liquid, revealing a sleeping individual with somewhat disorderly, mid-length blond hair, he looked as if he was just created minutes ago, not even clothed yet. He had a muscled form to him, the liquid having supplied him with every nutrient and steroid needed to create Ignius' greatest warrior.

Tsuhiro's soul was injected into this empty body which for some reason resembled Matthew's, the liquid bubbling as bright blue energy containing the boy flew into the new body.

Tsukime woke up from her induced dream. Her body was dark like the lines of her body, here eyes were red like her hair, which now was even frizzier than before. Tsukime stood up and began to feel a bit wobbly, like if it were the first time she used her body... "Damn! Handling this body is harder than I thought..."

She looks at Lyle. "Hey, Dr. handsome! I'm Magenta!Tsukime, but you can call me... I dunno... Tsuka? Nah! Mmm... I know! Asuka! It sounds cooler and keep the syllables. Perfect... BTW, Cyan!Tsukime was mentally tired so I'm taking charge of the body for now. So... Is this a boarding school or what?"

It didn't take to long for John to come up with an answer, but it took longer for the voice to subside. For now, it was silent, and after a few minutes, John spoke up:

Please leave me be...I'm no powerhouse, and i have my own problems to deal with, for now.

I beg to differ, John. While the downsides of having to emergency transfer you through the dimensional gate were many, it has also acted to bolster your abilities to great heights. And besides...any loved ones you have on earth are at Andras' nonexistant mercy in as little as a year.

This scenario was still salvageable, no more advanced brainwashing needed yet.

"Erm, this is different...I suppose one could call it that, but it also functions as a hybrid school between public and private types."

He had to wonder whose Erebus Spell Circles those had been. The list of Erebus Users could be counted on two hands, and none of them were pleasant possibilities.

Meanwhile, the second Ignius watched as the liquid drained out and the newly embodied Tsuhiro was forced awake. Ignius had created several mental imperatives around Tsuhiro's mind.

He knew the boy was likely going to be violent...

"Welcome to the world of the living, Tsuhiro-san."

Tsuhiro woke up, completely shocked by his new body. He had a hard time trying to reach her siter's mind, but then he realized he wasn't in his body anymore. "What the hell is this? Where am I? Why am I not back in the purgatory? WTF IS THIS PLACE?" He looked at Ignius and rushed to him.

Asuka!Tsukime just sat down like slacking. "I see... Then I guess I might go home now. After all, mom might be worried an-" she got catatonic and her body began to change again. Her skin became fairer, her eyes went to grey and her hair got white, losing the frizz and falling free and smooth.

Tsukime stood up, having regained her consciousness and the control of her body. "W-W-What's going on here? What just happened?"

Cyan!Tsukime is the submissive personality, so when Asuka's under control, she's totally unconscious, but when she's under control, Asuka remains "awake" inside of her, even affecting her actions in a limited way. Also, Asuka can knock Tsukime off and take control while Tsukime might take a while in recover. Whoever takes control, it shows on her body, as Asuka's body looks darker with red frizzy hair and red eyes, and Tsukime's looks lighter, with white smooth hair and grey eyes.

John hesitated, for a bit. The only person that ever cared about him was his uncle, and even then, he had his doubts. But with the internal struggle going on in his mind, and the new fact that his abilities were magnified, he wouldn't be any help anyways...

I'm Sorry...

However, as he rushed for Ignius, he halted and his body forcibly dropped to its knees, as if on instinct. "Allow me to explain. While your sister has a certain cosmic significance, you are an individual I needed. You see, here, in the World of Precipice, I intend to save the world. Your world. You, your sister, everyone."

Back out on the surface of Precipice, Ignius stayed calm and said, "Due to the ways the Stars of Fate operate, John, I am afraid you have no choice. Causality is a brutal force when this is involved. I know the pains of attempting refusal. I too was pressed into my current role by my old master, a wise ruler known as Avis-Nozad."

"My sister..." Tsuhiro thought. "What's gonna happen to the world?"

Tsukime looked around and decided she would like to stay around. Specially given her brother is somehow still present around. "I Think I'll take the boarding option and stay around for a little while. I think I might like to call my parents. They should know I'm gonna stay and I might need some of my clothes, too."

But...

The more he thought about it, the more he was tempted to join. Maybe he could put his freakish abilities to use, for once; Maybe he could actually help, instead of being a nuisance. Even if he didn't care about all that, letting his loved ones die, cause he can't take it would be a dick move. And the sincere tone Ignius was using didn't help. Even though deep in his heart, he knows he'll regret it, he hesitantly said:

I...guess i owe you.

...I suppose one could say it in such a way.

He did not like debt related relationships, but he supposed that it was necessary if things were to be done.

Meanwhile, Ignius explained to Tsuhiro, "Should Andras be released, the world will end. Everyone will die. There is only one shot at stopping this. The Death Trigger must die itself."

John took the gun, and the bullets, put it in the pocket of his cup noodle stained jacket, and sighed. Tomorrow is going to be an interesting day, unfortunately, he said to himself.

So can i go home now?

edited 21st Jul '12 12:05:23 AM by eternalNoob

Yes. A portal for you, to your home.

A large spatial tear opened up nearby, showing the inside of John's room.

John waved back at Ignius, casually, and didn't look back. He kept the gun somewhere safe, and fell into a deep slee-

BOOM

Once again, the explosion was all to familiar to him. At first, he dismissed it, remembering that he baked that monster for 10 minutes tops...And then came another one, the red glowing ball, and the out of nowhere light show. He sighed, and decided to investigate the premise. Despite a nagging voice at the back of his head telling him to ignore all that destruction, he charged towards certain doom anyways. After all, it would be a dick move to abandon your classmates, leaving them on the hands of a monstrosity straight from the Cthulhu Mythos.

It wouldn't hurt to settle the score with that squid, either

"Death trigger, huh?" Tsuhiro thought about it... "Who's that 'Trigger'?"

The fight wasn't really taking much out of Yuki physically, but it was getting increasingly taxing mentally. Every time she tried to attack, her reaction time to the ensuing counter attack slowed or even stop. Even with yet another horrible demon creature trying to eviscerate her, her mind was almost entirely focused on determining why this was happening. Hadn't the spirit guy told her that she had the power to determine her form? Or something like that? That seemed impossible when she couldn't even fight properly.

Then it started making sense in a weird way that was like a lost instinct returning to her. Even as she stood there with Rhyme, she began to quickly form a crystaline form of her pink energy around her body; it fashioned armor of a sort. Her eyes glowed brighter still, and something about her body morphed a bit. As in, flatter in the chest area. Temporary perhaps, but it was subconsciously what she thought necessary to win the fight.

"He's toast," Yuki finally spoke, striding forward out of Rhyme's grip and speaking in what sounded like a deeper version of her normal voice. The newest attack Yuki countered with a burst of shamanic energy, then the gender-confused-by-magic magical girl smirked.

"I thought you demons were supposed to be tough. Almost everything you jerks do are ranged attacks," Yuki called to the demon, "If you're really as strong as you think you are, take me on up close. Or maybe.."

With that Yuki sprouted the wings of energy again and flung herself at the demon, a crystaline blade in her hand, "I'll come to you! Time to die!"

Ignius responded, "An individual named Yuki. Currently resides at Morimune High School."

The strange man motioned and a large computer screen showed a strange entity resting inside of a meteor. "This is Andras, who she will awaken." The creature seemed to have a human body growing out of its torso, and numerous knight helmets crammed together for a head, two pointed off to the left and right. The core below the human body seemed to be gold and had a dull glow to it.

It appeared its massive shoulder pads had hundreds of arms branching down from them, as if this creature were some sort of tree.

Its legs were composed of hundreds of screaming faces forced into the form of knightly armor.

The twelve foot form of Jae'yon roared in a dragon like fashion, and readied its sword, flying down at Yuki. It slashed at her, while preparing to defend from her attack with its shield.

Both individuals seemed to be releasing an odd energy signature visible in the sky, making it look to viewers as if two streams of energy were clashing in the sky.

Rhyme smirked. Really, holding something? She wasn't exactly powerful, but she could do something about that. A blue glow surrounded the shield, and it was abruptly yanked to the left.

However, at that, someone whispered directly behind Rhyme, "Now dear, interfering in the battles of others...why...so...serious? Just let people have their...fun!"

Ein Woe himself, now wearing a strange looking purple tuxedo, appeared behind Rhyme and wasted no further time in stabbing at her lungs from behind, his claws primed and sharp.

Indeed, what was perhaps most terrifying about him, aside his appearance, would be the fact he was able to appear so suddenly.

Meanwhile, in the sky, the Chimera kept going, unconcerned and trying to forcefully move its shield back to a ready position.
