The Story Thus Far:

The Once-ler has successfully freed Martel Yggdrasil from captivity, bringing her to the woods for safety. Martel, afraid of the retribution this might bring, pleaded Once-ler to tell no one that she has escaped. Once-ler then returned to the Resistance, only telling Ino about what had happened. Martel meanwhile traveled the woods alone until she met up with Zack Fair, the now embittered mercenary that's been doing what he can to stay alive and free in this setting.

However it wasn't as though Martel's disappearance went without notice. Mithos noticed his sister's absence and has set out all stops to find her. Whether or not you know of Martel's release, it's hard not to notice the larger number of angels around - even if some appear less than intimidating. Because of this, the small traveling group of Zelos Wilder, Arya Stark and Genis Sage have decided to travel to the mountains to use the stronger winds for safe haven from any lifeless angels until they can stronger.

Meanwhile back in the Resistance, efforts to fight back still persist. The inventors are having struggles in creating better keycrests for their loved ones  that have been transformed into angels. In the less tech part of the Resistance, Tsuna and Allen continued their efforts to revert angels back to their former selves. They were successful in converting Mithos's former assassin Sheena, but due to some mishaps Maladict escaped from their attempts.

Oh and Garry moped.

With all these different teams going on, what will be the next thing to occur? Will things turn in favor to the Resistance, or will it only get worse? Will Garry ever stop moping? Will any of you remember to use the damn journal? Only time will tell...

As for amount of time, while the game is very flexible we'll set it to be still a few days after the staring point of the game cause why not]

RESISTANCE HQ

[save_the_souls]

[Because it forever lives on...]

[save_the_souls]

[Allen is in the medical area of the headquarters, currently doing what he can to fix his own arm until he can ask Ino to help him out with it. Though you know, setting your own arm is nowhere near as easy as setting someone else]

Ah- ow!

Come on, just a little more...

[ninjainviolet]

[Nearby is one former Killer Angel, trying desperately not to respond to the cry of pain and wake up. After all, she has no right to be concerned about others--not anymore.]

Let me sleep...

[whichwayyoulean]

[You know what's really bad about having a purpose to keep you going in a horrific wasteland? When you actually fulfil what you set yourself out to do. What do you do afterwards?

Try to get on as best you can, it turns out. The Once-ler toyed with the idea of heading out to the dead zone, living the rest of his time in Paradisa in safety. But the years have changed him somewhat, what would have been a very tempting offer has become a second best. Still, it's not as easy now he's got Martel out. Now he hasn't got that single thing to focus on, he has to try and throw his attention wherever he can and hope it can keep his mind off the hell he's living in long enough to pass the day away.

For now, that's working on keycrests. He's sitting in his quiet corner of the caves, working away and generally hoping he'll be left alone. Which of course never happens]

[ninjainviolet]

[Left alone? Here? Never. Only he may wish for someone else when he realizes just who's come to visit him.

Remember that Angel you pipe bombed? She's standing at one end of the cavern watching you in silence.]

[hedonic]

[ It happens in the way that dumping a crate of supplies loudly and proudly on the ground almostonhisfeet is leaving him alone.

Hi~ ]

[ofatar]

[ ARE WE THERE YET?
ARE WE THERE YET?
ARE WE THERE YET?
ARE WE THERE YET?
ARE WE THERE YET? ]

[save_the_souls]

[YES GOD WE'RE HERE STOP ASKING ME ALREADY]

[But yes, they are coming into a huge network of caves and what not!]

Here we are!

FOREST

[save_the_souls]

[Still hanging out in the forest? Have fun! Just watch out for angels- the patrols have increased thanks to Once-ler]

[heal_theworld]

[Martel knows the patrols have increased. That's why she's alone, still with Once-Ler's coat, and slightly better clothes-a tight t-shirt and a short miniskirt. She's currently hiding in a tree, watching the forest floor for anyone. She sighs.]

Once-Ler, it was really silly to rescue me. But... [She pats the pocket with the truffala seed in it.] Thank you. I'll keep this safe for you.

[someoneto_carry]

[Zoe is going past when she hears the sound of someone in the trees. She doesn't hesitate in pulling out her gun, pointing it up towards Martel]

[...What it's a stressful time of life okay]

[optimystic]

[Thud...

....

crackle thud...

Indeed, while you're in the forest, you might hear rocks tumbling around. There's the 'thud' of small to medium sized rocks being thrown, although it's unclear where the rocks are coming from. If you happen to roll a high perception, you might notice a girl halfway up a tree, throwing rocks so that they land in the clearing below. She pauses in her rock throwing...]

Pst- hey Zoe!

[she speaks in a whisper, although she makes it loud enough to carry to wherever Zoe might be]

See? I think we can use this to check if there's angels nearby! They'll be drawn to the sound of the rocks, but they won't know where we are. Pretty clever, right?

[yes, random person, you just walked in and overheard Maya's GENIUS plan]

[thehangedrose]

[So, you're walking along in the forest, minding your own foresty business, when all of a sudden you hear the loudest THUMP of what seems to be something really heavy falling down.]

[And before you can even wonder what the heck it was, there's the sound of a man's voice, high in tone and sounding ever so miserable.]

Why is this really hard?! Gosh, maybe I shouldn't even try anymore...

[Walk a bit toward where the sound is, and you'll find this purple-haired loser just laying on the ground as if he's never going to leave it, huge black wings on his back flapping like a fish out of water in a rather pathetic manner.]

Why did I ever think this was a good idea...

[crowdingmysky]

[ Snap.

Hear that? No? Well that's okay. You'll hear the next thing, the sounds of gunshots echo throughout the forest followed quickly by a man yelling obscenities at the top of his lungs as he runs for his goddamn life. The voice might be familiar, maybe it wont, who knows. What is important is that this guy (who is currently insulting his pursers in chinese, trust me if they knew what he was saying they'd be super made.... er) is not at all being stealthy.

He's being loud as fuck.

So you might want to find out what is going on or tell him to shut the fuck up because he's going to give everyone away with all that shooting and yelling.

Don't worry though, with a loud amount of noise the man in question barrels out from some bushes and comes slamming into the ground. Without so much as a pause he rolls himself back up and takes a moment to check behind himself─well mostly taking a moment to catch his god damn breath. ]

These bastards don't give up do they?

[ He's dirty, bleeding, and smells like he hasn't had a shower in weeks if not months. Sorry if he just barreled into your little campsite or... anything else, really he is just in a rush is all. Being chased and so forth. Hahaha. ]

[resolver]

[Lenalee isn't quite as aware of just how much the patrols have increased but, as always, she is being mindful of her surroundings. She's a little out of breath now, having just gotten away from what she believed to be a gang of stray angels, but she is determined to reach her destination; the Resistance HQ.

When she hears footsteps approaching, she slides behind a nearby tree and flattens herself against it. Her Innocence is still activated, so she isn't worried about being caught unaware -- but she is worried about the nagging feeling that she might be leading an angel to headquarters. She wouldn't be able to forgive herself if she put them in danger, not after all of this.

She counts the steps to herself quietly and, when she thinks the person is within a reasonable distance, she vacates her hiding place with the intention of having to protect herself. But wait, this doesn't look like an angel. So, then, who is Lenalee going to run into? Whoever you are, she looks relieved. Whether it be from the sudden burst of adrenaline or her own exhaustion kicking in, she rests her shaky hands against her knees and bows her head.]

Thank goodness..

CASTLE

[save_the_souls]

[You know, the place where all crazy evil shenanigans happen. ]

[ofatar]

[ And guess where this little guy just woke up? Right dead center in the lobby, even! Well, he's waking up. A little slow on the uptake because he feels like he's been asleep for another century, and this time there is some confusing overlap keeping him from remembering the last thing he was doing.

This equals migraine. ]

Ugh, my head...

MOUNTAINS

[save_the_souls]

[Due to the stronger winds and higher altitudes- you guys are pretty safe from mindless angels. Though on the other hand, there's probably less food to be found and it's colder. Been hiding out in the caves? Singing the sound of music? What's up?]

[innominata]

[ I CLAIM THIS CORNER IN THE NAME OF AWESOME. And Genis.

Arya has decided the wind makes for excellent conditions for training. She skips from stone to stone smooth as summer silk, her arms held out for balance. She hums quietly under her breath. ]

Barefoot. Surefoot. Lightfoot.

[draca]

[ She's out, for once, direwolf and dragon by her side. They're hunting for food so Nymeria takes the lead and Drogon takes to the skies, looking out for both foe and food alike. Daenerys herself follows the direwolf, walking along the stones near silently. She is one edge, looking far more wild than she does look a queen, a small dirk in hand just in case but she doubts she will need to use it.

She has never had need to use it before, but one can never be too careful. ]

[hedonic]

[ ~Someone~ seems to be thriving in the mountains. Of course, that's because she's only visiting. She's only ever visiting anywhere, if she can help it! Echidna isn't about wasting time, just enjoying it. These things don't always mix.

Surely the chilly mountain air seems incompatible with a half-nude jungle elf, but as usual nothing seems to actually bother her or the beloved snake ever wrapped around her waist.

Maybe you sent her on an errand, requested her help, or she's just hunting, but either way the Veteran Mercenary's here and she's liable to sneak up on you! ]

[wilder]

[Sometime after they ran into Dany, Zelos is taken the chance to get a bit of time by himself. He's located what seems to be some sort of mountain lake. After well...a good five minutes of undoing all the belts his ridiculous outfit has, he's currently in the water that is thankfully waist deep and doing what he can to scrub himself clean. His sword is on a rock near him, in case anyone approaches]

[What just because his life is utter shit doesn't mean he has to SMELL like it.]

THE TOWN

[save_the_souls]

[The quiet little village that is now super quiet because EVERYONE IS DEAD]

/quietly slips this in here

[theabjectauthor]

[anyone out and about - and if you are, why would you be, instead of safe at home reading a nice pleasant book? - might notice a man sitting at a cafe table, nursing a cup of tea, his face mostly hidden behind a menu and under the brim of his hat.

you might notice, anyway. he's trying not to be within notice. which means, by natural laws, someone should notice him.

after a while, he just sort of ... looks up]

Odd. I would've thought there'd be more people here.

[fail, Lemony.]

[onehorned]

[What a coincidence, she enjoys the quiet. For anyone unfortunate enough today to have found themselves in the town, there is a cloaked figure standing in the very center of it. Even though the hood is drawn up, it's clearly a female -- one who is braving the terrain with bare feet and little regard for the danger.

The most striking thing might be the fact that her rather plain brown cloak? Is caked with mud and other debris from a trip to the forest, but there's more. She's got flecks of dried blood everywhere. Old blood, this didn't happen recently. She just sucks at taking care of herself.

Don't worry though, it isn't hers. Whoops.]

Ah..
