The seals on Skyla's armor clamped quickly. The N7 Onyx armor had gotten her through quite a bit. Even though this armor wasn't the same she had... before, it was still hers. Putting her helmet on, Skyla took a deep breath before exiting her quarters, fully armed and ready for the assignment she had taken on.

One thing was for sure, this was NOT the Normandy SR-2.

"Just when I think things can't get worse." On instinct, Skyla drew out her Carnifex pistol. Light, easy to carry, and equipped with Incendiary ammo. The city around her seemed to be abandoned, with skyscrapers made of crystal. Skyla instinctively looked around the area. A castle could be seen in one direction, and Skyla couldn't help but feel that was where she needed to go. Looking for an entrance, she looked over her shoulder again. Life in the military alone made you expect the unexpected, being Commander Skyla Shepard prepared you for just about everything else. Just about. Someone better have a good explanation for this...

"Aha! NOW I have you! You are NOT getting my soul today!" Terrice said and brandished her phone at the intruders. Work Work Work Work Work Work Work Work YES! She thought as she pushed every button until she finally transformed in a flash of flame.

"Foul beings of the night, you don't belong in this world! BY FIRE BE PURGED!''

Terrice quickly gather her power, focused it into her sword and...did NOT launch a massive fireball in a small enclosed room that was filled with highly flammable things and had no available exits. No. Because that would be a very bad idea. Instead she noticed that while her clothes HAD transformed into her ridiculously embarrassing uniform, that uniform was on the floor because she hadn't been wearing her clothes when she had transformed. Then it sunk it that that meant that she was naked right now.

"...But before I do that, I have to ask: why am I naked?"

"Oh... umm... you're so cute! It was the best way to wake you up, really, and I got to feel so warm again..." the ghostly girl said, drooling slightly at something that would doubtless have made a telepath sigh and note out of range.

The knight spoke up, voice a commanding baritone, "Joan here is... the single most perverse ghost I have ever met. She wouldn't let me wake you any other way."

"Hey!"

This girl is creepier than Kohaku!

"Thanks? I guess?" As a guy Terrice had never been called cute and she wasn't sure if it was a compliment or an insult.

"I woke up naked with a scary naked ghost smiling suggestively at me. That's not my idea of the best way to wake up. But since you didn't drain me while I was asleep I guess you want to talk? And judging by your apparant fascination with my door's hinges I'm guessing you'd like it if I put some clothes on?"

I know I'd like to. But I can't unless I know they're not going to attack me if I try.

"Okay, that's good to know!" Fluttershy said. "Come, I'll take you to my room and then we'll patch you up!" With that, Fluttershy led Shoko through the large double doors and into the large foyer. Immediately Shoko would see even more animals within: Dogs, cats, various parrots such as macaws, cockatoos, and cockatiels, bunnies, even one or two pigs.

The two girls walked up the central stairs up to the second floor, the animals looking upon Fluttershy with love and adoration, parting away from her. She then started walking slightly faster. "Now, we must hurry!" she said. "I want to just to my room before - "

"FLUTTERSHY!!!" a voice rang out, followed by the sound of some kind of electric motor growing louder, as if coming towards them.

"- shit " Fluttershy quietly spat out.

Approaching the two high school girls was an ancient looking old man wearing a stereotypical hunting outfit sitting on a motorized wheelchair and carrying a thick, black cane. All the animals went away from the old man, but unlike Fluttershy whom the animal treated with reverent love and respect, the animals instead cowered in fear of him as if he were of demon straight out of Hell......

Even the normally tough and crummudgion Angel immediately jumped off the girl's shoulder and dived into her backpack, the lagamorph clearly shaking in fear......

"What the Sam Hill are you doing home so goddamn late?!" the old man asked. His voice was filled with such intense hatred Shoko could feel like prickling against his skin.

"Hello, Great Grandpa!" Fluttershy said happily, with a tone and expression that was utterly devoid of any actual joy. From this the detective could instantly tell MUCH about this old man. "How was your day to - ?"

"ANSWER THE QUESTION, YOU TREE HUGGER!!" the old man roared.

Fluttershy kept the mask up. "I was just hanging out with some friends," she answered.

"Friends?! PAH!! You never have any REAL friends!" the old man responded. "All you do is hang around filthy beasts! Beasts put on this Earth for HUMANITY to rule over!! Bet you were hanging out with some flea ridden strays like the bastard mongrel you were MEANT to be!!" The old man then noticed Shoko. "What the Hell is a GOOK doing in my house?!?" he said, pointing his cane at the Rider.

"She's a friend of mine," Fluttershy answered, miraculously keeping up the happy monotone.

"So you're FINALLY seeing man's superiority over the mindless animals, are ya?" he said in a delighted tone devoid of any real delight. "Pity it had to be a gook. If I had my gun and were back in America, I would've shot that cunt DEAD where it stood! And if during my father's time, I've would been given a medal like I deserve!"

Fluttershy is gently shaking, but she still kept up the mask.

"I remember the good old days where the Tarpan family was symnonimous with quality hunting equipment!" the old man reminisced. "The most accurate rifles, the best and deadliest bullets, bear traps of real steel, poison that could kill any animal you want! And we made MILLIONS! Sold our wares to kings and presidents! A legacy to tribute man's triumph over the stupid beasts like God intended! But that all came down when that mistake of nature took over the company! Oh how I seethed when he sold EVERYTHING our company originally meant and instead started some hippy animal product! It was only a damn stroke of luck that our company stayed alive! I'm just glad his spawn got offed! Would've sent it all the way to ground....."

Fluttershy was now starting to cry.....but she still held onto the mask......

"But you a finally showing potential!" the old man said to Fluttershy. "Maybe with some more human interaction, you'll eventually come to your senses and bring the company back to how it should be!" The old man then finally started to leave. "Go and hang around with your little gook friend, I'll have the servants cook you up something and bring it up to you," he said as he left. "Hopefully you'll be respectful to our.....guest.....and decide to have MEAT.....like a HUMAN......."

It was an agonizing several seconds before the old man was completely out of sight and earshot. Fluttershy stood there, stark still, continuing to hold onto her mask.......

She then suddenly grabbed Shoko by the wrist and ran, dragging the detective so roughly she threatened to force Shoko to trip and fall. The former pony finally reach a door, went in, roughly let go of Shoko, and slammed the door shut.

A beat.

Fluttershy then crumpled onto her knees.........and finally let the mask break.

She cried......fell sideways into a fetal position.......and cried.......

Angel bunny emerged from his master's backpack and walked up to the poor girl. The rabbit hugged her and nuzzled her tear stained cheek, comforting her anyway he could.....

Before Shoko can react to anything, Fluttershy dragged her to another place. Soon Fluttershy cried. "... Fluttershy..." Shoko said as she put her hand on her head and petted softly. With her other hand she made a fist. Had they been in the same area as the old man for a second longer, it would have made a nice red home in his face.

General Grievous had been waiting for something to happen.

While being left out of the challenge was not...totally unwelcome, he would have liked some action.

And now two new beings had appeared. The first was a man it seemed, dressed in tight fitting armor of some sort, with weapons that looked like a sort of Vibrosword attached to his back (Later he would learn he was wrong about that). The second who appeared was a human female, or at least looked partly like it. The helmet obscured her features partly, but it seemed like a human.

Grievous didn't waste any time, but leapt off the top of the castle and landed, bending his knees to absorb the impact as he crashed into the ground. Drawing his cloak around him to conceal his body, Grievous brought himself to his full height.

“It seems we have new comers to this hell.”

Or give me this guy. Yeah, that works too.

"Apparently. And you are?" Skyla figured she'd might as well be polite. This cyborg (she could tell from his eyes) seemed... strange, even by the standards back home, but that was no reason to treat him any differently from anyone else she just met. She also noticed the man not too far away who was dressed for combat as well. Tight fitting armor, sword on his back... Skyla never seen soldiers like that before, especially not with a sword on their back. Strange, but not the strangest she's seen.

I wonder if i can just simply use magic to change my clothes to something less noticeable. Xigbar thought to herself, the idea looming over her head. She quickly looked around for an alley to hide in and spotted one not far from her location. She then dashed through the crowd, gently moving them aside until she arrived. She checked her surrondings to make sure no one was watching her, then summoned her weapon, which bore a rather...familiar design that only she would recognize. Bringing the weapon in front of her face, she attempted to channel her energy, only for nothing to happen. Scratching her head uncharacteristically, she tried to figure out why it didn't work.

Perhaps it's because you haven't truly accepted yourself as you are now, and neither has my blade accepted you for that same reason. Once you understand that, the blade will accept you as it's master for the time being. As if. I'm you now, so it's mine. I'm just not doing it right, that's all. Hefting the blade in front of her with one hand, she places her other hand on her arm, hoping that she gets it right this time. She tries to force the magic through and once again, nothing happens. She blinks, then releases her stance, only to try again and fail miserably. After a series of repeated attempts, which involved thrusting the blade in a multitude of directions, alongside with rather terrible battle cries, the woman that resided in her mind shook her head in amusement at the poor display in front of her.

It's useless, you know. Forcing it to cooperate with you will only cause it to reject you, since you are doing it for the wrong reasons. You must prove your intentions are pure, and everything will follow afterwards. Alright already, we'll do it your way. Xigbar grumbled to herself as she slowly stood straight, weapon at her side. Calming down slightly, she gently raised the blade into the air, the uniquie edge facing in the opposite direction she was facing and began to channel the magic once more. As she was about to perform the transformation, a basket of women's clothes from the building directly behind her had been thown out from a window and landed on her head with the clothes covering her face. She then fell to the ground face first and the sword bounced off the ground, creating a disruption in the flow of magic, which immediately launched a magic missle that ricocheted off the walls. Xigbar threw the basket, along with the clothes, off herself rather franticly and stood up, having to make sure there were no other clothes on her. Unfortunately for her, as soon she stood up, the magic missle was flying straight toward her and blasted her in the back, sending her into the building near her, knocking her head upon the incredibly hard surface, rendering her unconcious. It would be awhile before anyone finds her.

Apparently he would be introducing himself all over again.

Really...it was enough to drive a being to drink (and with how little biological material he had left, any alcohol would be...disastrous).

Grievous eyed the woman carefully,

“General Grievous, Of the Confederacy of Independent Systems.” He idly wondered if he should make up a placard out of someone's corpse to spell it out.

The cyborg continued,

“Who are you two?”

Snake Eyes turned on the balls of his feet. Shit, stealth had gone straight out the window.
Producing his dogtags, he threw them to Grevious.
The tags clearly stated his name (Snake Eyes) and rank (Master Sergeant).

Skyla had never heard of someone named General Grievous, nor had she heard of the Confederacy, but she had that feeling in the back of her mind that this guy could quickly become bad news. It was best to remain polite. When she saw Snake Eyes' dog tags, she nodded slightly. He really was another soldier. What a coincidence, all three of them were in the military.

"I'm Commander Skyla Shepard, of the Alliance military." Then she quickly added. "And a Spectre." Though I'm not sure how long either of those will last, given current events...

"We'll explain why we're here when you're dressed," Joan said, refusing to look away and doubtless making Terrice feel awkward. Getting dressed quickly was a good idea, too—after all, she didn't want her family to rush in and check on her, did she?

Azreal341 Since: Jan, 2011
#6714: Dec 9th 2011 at 7:57:31 AM

Terrice struggled greatly getting into her impossibly tacky outfit, bumping around akwardly all the while. In the middle distance someone could be heard quietly walking around.


Darn kids and their nightmares. Darn teenagers and their raging hormones. Darn Terrice and her transparant attention seeking. Garret thought as he popped a sleeping pill.

First she blows up a cafe THEN she stays at a friend's house to "Study" Biology and NOW she's yelling about ghosts in her room. I bet in the morning she'll say "Nothing interesting happened!" in that fake worried tone and expect me to believe it. Or not believe it. Or whatever. Sigh, why couldn't she have been born a guy? Guys aren't so complicated are they? I don't remember being this much trouble when I was her age. He thought as he drifted into blessed oblivion.


"Okay, you can turn around now. I'm covered." This is the most complicated, akward night of my life and I am SO glad I was born a guy. I bet my dad didn't have to deal with stuff like this when he was a kid.

I mean really! All he had to do was climb 20 different mountains, get a quest from a talking rock to save the world, light some lighthouses, slay a couple dragons, kill a tree to save its life so it could lift a curse turning people into trees, walk through a neverending forest until he got to the end and fight 20ft tall orangutang, behead some statues to reverse a flood in a mine, cross an evil desert full of scorpions that jump out of the ground to eat you, kill the krakken, journey to the center of the earth and defeat the undead king of the pirates, help Issac cheat in a gladiator tournament, cross a desert with angry sentient tornados, circumnavigate the globe, search for the elixer of life, pilot a flying ship, gather and bind the Dijinni so he could drop meteors on his foes, find summoning tablets so he could summon mythological creatures to help him in combat, teleport to space so he could fight the horseless headless horseman for the last tablet needed to summon the goddess of rainbows, stop the world from dissolving into nothingness, and sort of become immortal.

All that is normal. This? This makes no sense! Ghosts. Don't. Exist. And they aren't sometimes physical and sometimes not either.

#6715: Dec 9th 2011 at 8:03:45 AM

Grievous nodded. A systems alliance? Clearly space travel then.

This...Snake Eyes however...it didn't give his organization. Also, Grievous noted that he did not speak.

“I assume you cannot converse with us then.” He said, pointedly looking at the masked man before tossing his dog tags back.

Turning back to Shepard, Grievous continued,

“We are all from separate realities. This location seems to serve as a junction point. Several times tears in this reality open and pull us into other ones, and then bring us back here. There are others, but they were all pulled through a tear recently.” The cyborg flexed one hand,

“Unfortunately, we have not been able to find anything useful in this damnable city to allow us to escape.”

"En Garde!" Matthieu declared, spinning around and producing a broadsword from the same ethereal location as Joan's staff. He at least had the politeness to shout a warning, it seemed, and after Chiko his speed was nothing. On the other hand, this was a one-on-one fight and his status as a ghost, as well as an actual, trained feudal night, suggested that he knew how to use the sword. Strange that he didn't have an accompanying shield, however.

The ghostly girl hung back and started whispering to herself.

"I.....am so.....SO sorry you had to see that......" Fluttershy apologized to Shoko in between sobs. "This version of me rarely even sees that man, and every time she does she just cries and cries and.....Oh Celestia, how is she stand it for so long!" The poor girl continued to cry harder. However she now managed to sit up at least. "The worst thing is because my grandfather is far too busy running the company to take care of me I can't live with him......"

Abruptly, there was a sound of frantic tapping on the window of Fluttershy's room, and if they were to look, they'd see a familiar pale figure in a tattered gray uniform with black feathered skirt, apparently clutching awkwardly at the very narrow windowsill beneath her and wanting very much to come inside.

"NO!" Fluttershy said, putting her hand over Shoko's cell phone. "I have to stay," she emphasized. "I must. If I am not in the estate for more than a day, he will start ordering the servants to throw all the animals out on the street, or worse, KILL them outright! And if the threat of job termination doesn't force the servants to do it, he will do it himself!" The former pony gulped down a lump in her throat. "I actually saw him do it once......"

Angel Bunny nodded furiously to confirm his master's claims.

She took some calming breaths, trying to compose herself, tightly grasping unto chunks of his long hair. "Some of these animals I took in myself," she said. "I managed to help them, heal their injuries and take them away from abusive and unloving homes.....most were the descendents of animals my grandfather and my parents saved.....

"The servants as well are at risk," she continued. "If I'm gone, the first thing he'll do if fire all the one who clearly need the money! They have no where else to go, and he knows they'll be on the street! The remaining servants are only working for that man only because of me.....I hate to think what would happen to them or what he will do to them if I'm not here to witness it....."

Fluttershy let out a truly truly pitiful sigh. "I know you what to help me, but.....I just can't....." she said to Shoko. "I'm so sorry......."

She then heard the tapping on the window. Fluttershy went over to the window and opened it. "Um, hello," she said. "I'm sorry for my appearance, but, who are you?" she asked.

"Fluttershy..." Shoko said. She was thinking of at least letting her father know what is going on, given how he's a police officer, but she heard the tapping of the window. She went over and saw Rey. "Hey, Fluttershy, someone's at the window." Shoko said.

Rey slipped in the window gratefully, letting out a sharp breath of relief. "Thanks. Sorry, I wouldn't have come here, but this was the only house I could find that seemed as though it would have someone important in it, and as soon as I saw you guys I figured you were who I needed." The girl reached down to her waist, where a leather belt, but with a bright gold buckle on the front, was, and as she tapped it, it abruptly vanished with a flash of light, leaving her in her regular school uniform, messy hair, and holding a solid black pen.

"It's me, Reyna."

"I was..." Rey grunted, as he was actually using his transformation pen to try and pull tangles out of his long hair. "I was trying to track down exactly what the threat was we're supposed to be dealing with this time around. Last time I was in a world like this, it was a huge awful monster from outer space called the Collector...and there were other monsters to be found in the alleys around town. But I've been hunting ever since school let out and aside from the odd mugger and whatever happened at the cafe that I missed, it's been nothing!"

He finally took in appearances, yelping as he pulled out one tangle, but then glanced back and forth. "Uhhh, you guys okay? Should I, uh, go?"
