[Cristania :-: Realm of Light :-: Cross City :-: Streets en route to Town Square]
"Cris, come back! Cris, come ooon...."
She ignored the increasingly more desperate calls behind her. It was bad enough her blue hair was attracting attention, she didn't need her most recent mishap with love bringing more. Cristania gritted her teeth, annoyed that he hadn't been the one willing enough to go on an adventure with her, or at least take his bloody car out for a tour of the countryside, and even more annoyed he didn't understand that she didn't love him. Why couldn't he just bug off already?
"Crissy... please..." Something snapped in the woman's head at the name Crissy. She'd never particularly enjoyed the nickname said boy had given her, and always took offence when she was called so. Cris flipped around faced him. He was not more than a few feet from her, having sprinted when he saw she stopped. Cris's blue eyes hardened and she walked over to him.
SLAPSMACK!
"I said, Terence, I'm done. Now before I hurt you, bugger off!" she said to his rather astonished and redding face. He reached for her with a hand, still not understanding. Cris growled a low oath and slammed her knee into Terence's gut, and turned on her heel. She muttered a few more obsenities before stalking her way into the Town Square.

[Robert :-: Realm of Darkness :-: Euphorika :-: Streets]
"Sure, I guess I can do that. Not like I have anywhere to be soon so..." said a man of twenty-three to his boss. His boss, a man who looked like he'd tried one to many drugs when he was in his early life, nodded and checked up on the band. The man let out a sigh, running his fingers through his copper hair and went to work. It wasn't hard, just moving equipment around from the recent concert. It didn't pay well, but it did pay, and that's all that matter to him. He felt odd, being in a city like Euphorika, where most of the ground was covered in stone and asfalt. It wasn't so much that he missed the countryside, he just missed nature in general.
He'd always been good with nature... just as he'd always been helping people out before himself. He lifted parts of a set of drums onto the van.
"Bobby, I can't thank you enough. I never would have gotten the stuff up meself, and with the guys all tipsy it never would have gotten done, regardless. Thanks again, man, really," said his boss, taking a drag off his cigarette. Bobby, normally known as Robert to all but his closest friends, merely nodded and gave a smile. He hauled the last piece of equipment up, and dusted his pants off. His boss took the Phorik and went into the office to charge it with his payment.
Out of the hall stepped one rather drunk guitar player, held up by his girlfriend who was one of the bass players, the other bass player, and the drummer. The latter two were stumbling about, and talking in loud boisterious voices. The quartet passed by Bobby, but never once looked at him or showed they knew he existed. The copper haired boy glared at their backs, but never said a word.
He was used to this. After they'd made it big, nothing else seemed to matter. Not even old friends working as stage hands. He jumped from the van, the stone beneath his feet rippling ever so minutely at the force of his landing. The door was slammed shut with just a little more force than necessary as the manager came back.
"Here's your payment. Thanks again Bobby. The band couldn't live without you," he said, before leaving to round up the band players. Bobby forced his annoyance down and disappeared into the darkness of the streets. Knowing the state the lead guitarist Railey was in, they wouldn't be moving out a few days. Bobby cold disappear without any problems. Tying a cloak around his shoulders, he turned to walk for anywhere but here.

[Leront : Realm of Light : Cross City : Town Square Cafe]
With a minuscule frown, Leront's stoic eyes seemed to hold a bit of discontent as his cup of tea was stolen from him. As a woman came near, willing to take Nacht's order, all Leront did was hold a hand up, stopping her in her tracks, before pointing to the now-empty tea plate, obviously wanting another cup for himself. With a nervous nod, she turned away and went to go fetch him another cup of tea, allowing him to pay attention to the teenager in front of him... as much as it displeased him.
"I decided to enjoy one last cup of tea before departing, as this isn't exactly a common luxury throughout the cosmos I've discovered," he explained apathetically, glancing at the empty cup with might have been a hint of disdain. "At least, until you arrived to drain it to the last."
"There's not much I could have done to aid you, had you clashed with the stony streets. I only know some minor first aid- I might have been able to make you look cleaner for the coffin, but no more," he explained. His vertical third eye in the center of his head opened somewhat at the sound of a woman and man fighting nearby- a woman named Cris, or Crissy, and a male named Terrance. "But might I inquire as to what made you go through with such a foolish stunt? Did you not, perhaps, think to check the ropes before you leapt?"
[Bazran : Realm of Darkness : Euphorika : Back Alley Square]
"Dude, I could friggin rock the Aero," Bazran replied with a smirk, immediately stretching as he stood upon his return from bringing the girl to the healer. Nothing like a party to get the adrenaline pumping. At his full height, he was easily taller than most others in the square, Evan included, and when you included the muscle mass of the adrenaline junkie, he was plainly a giant. "I'm totally in the mood to one up those prissy boys who call themselves 'men'- show the ladies what real men are, amirite?!"
[Venat : Realm of Light : The Underworld : The River Styx]
"Well, like I said, I'm done with this insipid Realm- mission accomplished," he explained, his 'Content' mask instantly transforming into a 'Joyous' grin. Holding out his hand to the side, a rift in the fabric of the Underworld appeared, dark tendrils ripping a hole that inevitably lead to their 'meeting ground'. "Now we must cross paths with our Sinful and Immaculate allies to find our way home."
His cryptic tone would only make sense to Marko, and even then, only marginally so. While Venat seemed to understand the complexities of the bond between these confidential paths between realms, the Nobody would never divulge any details, preferring to keep everything a 'surprise'. All that was known was that the only way cross the Boundary was to know it's location already; the Boundary Point wasn't exactly a world, but it wasn't exactly nothing, either...
"Shall we away?" he said, the 'Joyous' mask turning into a 'Smirking Question' mask, one eye lowered and one part of his mouth turned up into a smirk.

[Abel: Realm of Light: Cross City: Edge of Town Square]
"Darn..."
The bird-like teen stopped right before the town square. Hadn't he been here earlier...? Yeah, he had. Which means he did a full circle and didn't see neither a instrument store, nor someone that looked even remotely familiar. Actually...
"Darn..." He just reminded himself as he looked in his money pouch that he had no where near enough money to even consider buying a new instrument...maybe he could buy himself some food...maybe a sandwich?
Now it was just a matter of finding a place that would serve him.
[Kale: Realm of Darkness: Euphorika: Back Alley(dead end)]
The assassin took off his mask, staring at the wall that impeded his path. And his eyebrow twitched.
"That b*****d! Sold me a map that wasn't even right!"
Kale made immediately plans to find that 'merchant' that sold him the map, saying it was '100% accurate and completely up to date,' and do many thing to him. Many painful things.
...Once he figured out where the hell he was supposed to go, of course.
So, Kale, mask in his pocket, started to wander the back alleys. If he could get out of them, then he could hopefully figure out where he was and get to the nightclub he was supposed to infiltrate.
...Hopefully.

[Cristania :-: Realm of Light :-: Cross City :-: Town Square]
Cris made her way to a cafe nearby, where two men (Leront and Nacht) were talking. At least Terence hadn't followed her. She ran a hand through her hair, ordering a cup of sweet tea. Boy was she tired of being in Cross City. It wasn't that she didn't like it, because it was a nice city, and a great place to live, she just was ready to move on.
She had wanted Terence to come with her, but all he seemed to want to do was keep her here and close by. That didn't sit well with Cris. The thought of staying in one place scared her almost. She need to be on the move, and the first to dive into anything.
"For the crows... I just hope I have enough money to get out of the city," she muttered to herself, sipping her tea.
---
[Robert :-: Realm of Darkness :-: Euphorika :-: Streets to a square to Aero]
He stretched and walked through the streets. Bobby's eyes looked over the streets as he walked. Man... sometimes I don't know why I do stuff for people all the time, he thought with a bit of a sigh. He enjoyed the comfort his job with the band gave him, but sometimes...
He's ex-girlfriend (the last, and only girlfriend he'd had) had been right: he just couldn't say no to people. So, because of that, he'd made a bit of a name for himself as the 'helper of anyone who asks'. Not the best title he could have. He passed into one of the many squares the better side of town had without stopping and went to cross it.
"Robert! Robert!" Bobby stopped and turned in the direction of the voice. Some guy with an 'Aero' badge on his chest ran up to him. Oh no.... "Hey, our stage hand totally skipped out on us. Can you come help?"
"Uh, yeah, sure. Not like I have anywhere to be tonight," replied Robert. The guy breathed a sigh of relief and practically dragged him to the nightclub. Bobby had never actually like the nightclubs, preferring to stay behind the black curtains of the stage to actually being out there in the audience. The club Aero was no different. It was just like the last club he'd worked, just with out Railey's band.
He was ushered inside and promptly put to work fixing the computerized sound board. He muttered a few choice words for the stage hand who'd 'skipped out' and went about his task.

[Nacht .:. Realm of Light .:. Cross City .:. Town Square]
Nacth chuckled a bit at Leront's dismay, taking pleasure in stealing from him the tea. "Check the ropes? Well, someone was supposed to be holding them... I guess they ran off. As for why I would do something like that, well, you know I live for the thrill of it, right?" Nacht prodded his empty cup for a moment, grinning at the older man as though he was about to add something...
But the wail of a siren cut the boy's speech off. The daredevil looked around to see the town's alarm system going off and citizens scattering every which way. He got up from his table and looked around before he finally saw it: several white and blue creatures gliding into the Town Square from the rooftops. If one looked closely at the creatures, you would be able to see the odd symbol on their heads, resembling an upside-down heart with an X-shaped mark on the tip that would normally be the bottom. At first, Nacht wasn't sure what to do. Yes, there had been occasionally Heartless attacks on the town, but it was always in small numbers. In addition to that, these monsters bore a symbol that was obviously not a Heartless symbol.
Nacht clenched his fists, a daring smile as he turned his attention back to Leront. The Town Square had almost become completely empty, leaving only a handful of people, including Leront and Nacht. "Well, Ler'? Any idea what these things are?"

[Evan :.: Realm of Darkness :.: Euphorika :.: Back Alley Square -> Back Alleys]
"Then let's go!" Evan yelled excitedly, running off into the maze of familiar back alleys in the direction of club Aero.
[Einarr :.: Realm of Light :.: Cross City :.: Leera's house -> Town square]
At the sound of the alarm, Einarr bolted from the couch and yelled "Leera! Take up your sword! They've returned!"
For the past couple of months, Einarr had been teaching Leera swordplay so that she could defend herself from the heartless who constantly ravaged the town.
Rushing toward his armor display, Einarr quickly suited up and pulled his large broadsword from it's sheath and took his shield into his left hand. Leera on the other hand didn't have much in terms of armor, only a small breastplate that Einarr had crafted for her out of a couple of spare junk metal from the alleys.
"Einarr, I just looked out the window, and these aren't heartless! I'm not positive what they are." Leera yelled as Einarr pulled on his gauntlets.
"It matters not. They're attacking the town, so we must treat them as if they were heartless." Einarr replied. "Now then, when we reach the town square, hide yourself while I help fight them with whoever else is there."
Leera nodded frightenedly before following Einarr out the door in the direction of the square.
When the two reached the square, Leera went to hide with a group of civilians, while Einarr immediately ran to the only two who still stood in the square, Nacht and Leront. "Do you two fight!?" The giant asked as he reached them. "Or do you cower with the rest of the people!?"
[Marko :.: Realm of Light -> In Between :.: Underworld -> Dusk Forest :.: River Styx -> The abandoned Platform]
Marko gave Venat an annoyed look before summoning his own portal of darkness behind him and stepping through it.
When Marko stepped out from the portal, he stepped into a complete change of scenery. Gone was the eery green glow of the river styx, and here was the eery glow of the dusk trees. He had arrived at the Dusk Forest, a world in between the realms.
Dusk Forest was a world that was completely surrounded in a deep forest. The trees of the forest all had a strange color that was somewhere between purple, beige, and the slightest tint of blue, the color seen at night when the sky isn't black like it should be. The leaves all glowed which was amplified by the dust that floated in the air like pollen in a nice spring day.
Marko stood on a large circular platform in the middle of the forest. The platform was etched with many strange designs, and was adorned with benches for passerby's who required rest. At one end of the platform, was a large walkway, etched with the same markings, that led to a large tower in the distance. The tower was made out of crystal and reflected the light glow from the trees.
"This place always did make me uncomfortable." Marko said, scratching his arm where the dark aura made him itch. Looking up, he watched the clouds pass by in the sky the same color as the trees. "Everything here has one color, it's annoying."
(For those of you confused about the color, refer to here. http://www.sanjaymarathe.com/indiastockimages/kihim/SMIS1-0001-kihim-dusk.jpg )

((IK, there are more than just Nacht and Leront in the Town Square. They just haven't posted yet, which is why I said a handful of people.))
~:~
[Nacht .:. Realm of Light .:. Cross City .:. Town Square]
Nacht picked his nose a bit as the over dramatic viking showed up, replying with a bored, "I sure as hell don't cower, but I don't exactly have a weapon to fight." He puts his hands in his pockets and watched the creatures split up and approach the people remaining in the Town Square. The young boy couldn't help but grin with excitement before he added, "Things are about to get fun, too. Think we can survive this, Ler'?"

[Leront : Realm of Light : Cross City : Town Square]
Leront was about to comment on the irresponsibility of relying on others (much to the dismay of his third eye, which glared down at him at the mere thought) when the siren's wail cut off his train of thought. Immediately, he tensed, his normal eyes looking one way and his third eye looking another as he tried to gain an idea of what was going on. When the creatures appeared, Leront seemed to grow somewhat more tense, if something like that was even possible.
_____________They are note Heartless...
Their bodies seem ethereal like the Heartless, however... _________________________Their movements are too processed- these creatures are sentient...Spirits unsleeping, risen from graves to haunt...? No, mere spirits would feel no compulsion to strike at the living unless driven by emotion... "No, Nacht, I can't say I know of these creatures," Leront answered, shaking the multitude of thoughts running from his head as he observed their movements. He knew very little martial arts, only enough to keep himself alive, but in a fight he was particularly useless. He was an adviser, not a combatant. "To question survival is to forfeit it- even the smallest doubt will inevitably lead to defeat. Of course we'll survive."The Archsage pretty much ignored the barbarian that came dashing in, screaming at the top of his lungs. How absolutely vulgar. If, however, he provided enough defense, it might be worth it... Barely. [[Not really sure what to put for Baz. >>;; You'd have to describe the place since it's your world, lol]] [Venat : In Between : Nirvana Tower : Dusk Forest Platform]
"Aww, don't be such a spoiled sport," the masked Nobody replied from behind, patting Marko on the shoulder with a Happy mask on. Unlike Marko, who gave off a constantly dark aura while in the Realm of Light due to his origins, Venat gave off no strange aura, apparently fitting in rather well. "It's supposed to be symbolic, ya know? Betwixt the Realms, the Boundary Lies in Slumber. That's why it's so dead out here all the time."
Walking forward, Venat pushed open the ornate doors the led into Nirvana Tower, the Point of Neutrality. Truly a sight to behold, the tower was entirely crystal- even the dual-spiral staircases opposite one another were of the strange stone, circling one another until they reached the head of the tower. What would catch one's eye first and foremost, however, was not the building so much as the ground it stood on- on the floor in the dead-center of the tower was an intricately made circle, with two inverted sides pointing in separate direction. The side with the light on the outer rim lie towards the Realm of Light, and the side with the darkness on the outer rim lie towards the Realm of Darkness.
"It seems our buddies aren't here today," he said, his mask turning immediately into that of sorrow as he turned to face Marko. "I guess that means we're going straight home, hmm?[[Obviously it's more intricate than that, but that's the best I could do with Paint and Photobucket xD]]

[Einarr :.: Realm of Light :.: Cross City :.: Town Square]
"If you have not a weapon then take one of mine." Einarr said, unsheathing his dagger and tossing it towards Nacht. "I hope it serves you well!"
Turning toward the oncoming monsters, Einarr paused. "These creatures are not the beasts who normally attack." He said, watching the creatures carefully.
[Evan :.: Realm of Darkness :.: Euphorika :.: Back Alleys -> The Aero]
Weaving through the familiar back alleys, Evan made his way ever closer to the Aero, a club on the western end of the city.
Turning a corner, Evan heard the familiar sounds of the people outside complaining to get in. Normally, that would be a problem, except that Evan and Baz were entering from behind. "Alright Baz, you know the drill." Evan said, climbing over the fence that blocked the alley from the club, with Baz following close behind. "We sneak into the vents, make our way to the bathroom, and wait for it to be clear before dropping in." Removing the unscrewed vent opening from the wall, Evan scaled the wall, and climbed in, not waiting for Baz to follow.
Crawling through the vents, Evan made his way to the bathroom, and seeing it was clear, dropped in, the noise masked by the thumping music outside. "Hurry up Baz, before someone comes in."
Walking over to the sink, Evan splashed some water on his face to clean the dirt off. "Baz, hurry up!"
[Marko :.: In Between :.: Nirvana Tower :.: Dusk Forest Platform]
"Whatever." Marko said annoyedly, following Venat into the tower.
After walking into the tower, he watched as the dead color of the forest was reflected into the tower. "This place really gives me the creeps." he thought to himself as he walked to the other end of the room "I don't get why Venat likes this place so much."
Walking to the opposite end of the room, the dark aura around Marko dissapeared, sending a shiver down his spine and making him twitch for a second before continuing to the opposite wall.
Leaning his back on the wall and crossing his arms he said "So it seems. Those two are never here anyway, why wait for them to show? And what do you mean by home? Where exactly are we going?"

Nacht caught the dagger and stared at it for a minute before replying, "Not the ones who normally attack? Gee, what gave it away? Their numbers, their color scheme, or the emblems?" The young daredevil held the dagger in a reverse style and got ready, a cocky grin on his face as he said to Leront, "'Go into battle hoping to live, and you will surely die. Go into battle looking for death, and you will surely live.' Even the ancient samurai were more daring than you, Ler'!"

[Cristania :-: Realm of Light :-: Cross City :-: Town Square]
Her head snapped up at the siren. Cris looked at the creatures taking over the square. Those weren't Heartless... The woman pulled a bow off her back and looked in the quiver. Ten arrows... she hadn't needed more than that for she only used her bow to go after the mice and rats, and the occasional Heartless raid if she was stuck in a tight spot.
"Damn..." she muttered, "I'll have to be a sharp shoot, and fetch my arrows back. Not my idea of a fight." Cris notched an arrow and aimed, and let it fly with deadly accuracy into one of the white creatures. Not bothering to stop to see if she actually killed it, she leapt the railing around her corner of the cafe and into the fray.
Not once did she think about the men near her.
---
[Robert :-: Realm of Darkness :-: Euphorika :-: Aero]
Bobby ran a hand through his orange hair, shaking his head. The stage hand needed to really figure out what he was doing. It had taken him almost a half an hour to figure out what was wrong, then another thirty minutes to fix it. That kid had really screwed things up.
He made his way to the bathroom, not expecting to see anyone inside. He opened the door to see someone shout up to the air vent, where he presumably crawled in from. Bobby blinked and went to deal with his business in a stall. He wasn't exactly sure who the guy was, but, hey, not like it mattered. He and his friend were sneaking in. By all rights, Bobby should report them.
Yeah, okay, he'd had enough of doing what people wanted for one night, thank you. All he wanted was to just find a nice warm bed to sleep in, and maybe a girl to keep it that way (though the later was very unlikely). Anything else was not his problem. Maybe he'd go get a drink and get his pay and leave... Yeah.... definitely a drink first...

[Leront : Realm of Light : Cross City : Town Square]
"As previously stated, to question survival is to forfeit it. To hope to live is the same as saying you are not sure you will live, thus questioning it," he explained, watching as the two men exchanged weapons and grins before battle. How childish. Rolling all three of his eyes (though, humorously, the vertical Third Eye rolled in the opposite direction), Leront drew his own dagger- a ceremonial blade that hadn't drawn an enemy's blood since the day it was forged all those decades ago. "I never said I do not go into battle looking for death- I simply said I do not go in, wondering if I'll survive. I prefer not to go in at all."
[Bazran : Realm of Darkness : Euphorika : Club Aero]
"Dude, I'm right the hell behind you, so shut up," Baz seethed, dropping through not but a moment later. He had cleaned himself off at his father's, so the washing wasn't necessary. "You try squeezing through those vents when you're as ripped as I am, squirt, and then you can rush me."
Bazran walked towards the door, knocking it open with a slight push before stepping into the crowded Club Aero. It was aptly named- the club itself was at least five stories, cylindrical in shape, with at least a quarter-mile in diameter. Up above, there were massive platforms, capable of holding a few dozen people, dotting the room, each hovering at different heights, and each kept up by (you guessed it) strong currents of wind. The generators underneath each platform were specially programmed to keep the platforms at specific heights... and to change heights every so often. To get up to a platform, all one needed to do was step into the air current and soar up- upon nearing the platform, a hole in the center would open up and allow safe entrance to the actual 'dance floor' on the top.
Of course, that didn't mean there was no party on the ground floor- on the contrary, that's where most of the party was at, with a bar circling the entire club. Rave lights filled the entire club, and though a DJ wasn't visible, one could hear one over the loud speaker every once in awhile, announcing a new song. It was rumored that he was in the massive black sphere at the top of the club, but that was also well known to be the owner's office, so unless they were the same person, then who really knew? In the center of the massive, circular floor was a circular stage that hovered off the ground just a few meters. Above each dance platform was a number of bright screens, allowing the people above to get a better look at the band despite their heights.
"Man, do I love this club," Bazran said with a grin just loud enough for Evan to hear (which was particularly loud, considering the blaring music).
[Venat : In Between : Nirvana Tower : Inside the Tower]
"I figured we could loosen up a little- you know, hit the clubs back on Euphorika," he said, crossing over with a dainty skip- noticeably, he gained no aura from entering the new Realm. "Come on, buddy, let's get going!"
Without so much as a word of warning, he pushed open the set of doors opposite the ones they entered, revealing an identical forest, with identical paths and an identical area just off in the distance, as though they'd just come out the way they came. In front of them, a Corridor of Darkness opened, welcoming them to Euphorika the moment they entered...

[Nacht .:. Realm of Light .:. Cross City .:. Town Square]
Nacht laughed at Leront's response and said, "I see, so if I go in hoping to die, of course I'll come out alive! Let's do this!" He started to run into the fray, running alongside Cris without realizing it, just as a bolt of lightning struck the ground in front of him. The daredevil fell backwards and stared at the man who now blocked his path, radiating from his body a darkness Nacht had never seen before.
The man, who actually was a boy not much older than Nacht, held a small cube in his hand, tossing it up and down as he eyed the enemies before them. "Man," the stranger said, "What a bother. The Nameless are already jumping into action! Good thing I got here in time." The box in the boy's hand began to glow faintly just before several weapons (and other objects) faded into existence around him, floating effortlessly as he turned to look at the children around him.
The stranger grabbed an odd sword from the selection and stuck it in the ground in front of Nacht. "Take it, kiddo. It's probably more useful than a dagger, huh?" Just as he said this, the other items around him began to float towards the others in the Town Square. To Leront, a large sceptre; to Cris, a new bow with a full quiver; to Einarr, a large shield; and to the bird-ish man on the other side of the Town Square, a guitar."These might be a bit more useful than standard viking iron, so wiping out these Nameless shouldn't be a problem, right?" The stranger smiled before vanishing from sight in a burst of darkness. Without a second thought, the young daredevil reach up and grabbed the odd sword the stranger had left him, tearing it from the stone as he heard a voice echo in his head:"... Bulderen Blau..."______________ As he heard this voice, Nacht saw a single image before him, and gained with it memories of battles he never saw. What? What the hell was that?! He looked down at the odd sword, noticing the blue markings on it's blade just before more sirens sounded off. The daredevil looked around to see more of these "nameless" creatures flood the Town Square. Nacht slid into a new stance, suddenly overcome with this new... "idea" for fighting. "I don't know what these weapons are... but I think I like mine!" The young boy dashed into the fray, this time without the interruption as he jumped high into the air. I... didn't know I could jump this high! Nacht began swinging his sword at the ground in the creatures' direction, twisting the handle of his sword as he did. The blade roared with the ferocity of a motorcycle as he twisted the handle, launching barely visible cuts through the air and dicing up a section of the Nameless.
He landed back on the ground, revving the sword one more time as it burst into flames. "Oh yeah- I could get used to this."

[Marko :.: In Between -> Realm of Darkness :.: Nirvana Tower -> Euphorika :.: Inside the tower -> Outside club Aero]
"Wait, no! Don't I get any say in thi-" Marko yelled as Venat's corridor of darkness sucked him in.
The bright lights contrasting the thick darkness blinded Marko for a second before his eyes gradually adjusted to the familiar world. "Aero....This is Evan and Baz' favorite club...." Marko thought when he finally figured out what he was looking at.
"Damnit Venat!" He yelled, causing the concerned looks from a couple of the people in the large crowd around them "Did it ever occur to you that I might not want to come back to Euphorika!? I mean it's not like I didn't come back here for no reason!"
Despite Marko's anger, he knew he needed the relaxation and a couple of drinks, and what better way for a sound elemental to relax, than in a club with music thumping so loud you couldn't hear yourself think?
[Evan :.: Realm of Darkness :.: Euphorika :.: Club Aero]
At first, Evan seemed a little unnerved by the guy who had seen him yelling at Baz. But when the man walked into the stall and ignored them, he smiled and walked towards Baz and said "I know you do. Shall we dance?"
Taking the lead, Evan jumped straight into the action, launching himself into the nearest air current, sending him flying into the air and into the current's dance platform.
Immediately, Evan got close to the first girl he saw, a smoking hot, short haired redhead in a tubetop and skin tight zebra pants. "Well hello there..." The girl said seductively before she turned around, but when she did, she immediately stopped dancing and after sizing Evan up said "Oh man, who exactly let you in here?" before flying, actually flying away.
"Air boots, damnit I forgot about those." Evan said, cursing himself as the girl flew away to join all the others who were actually flying.
See, in club Aero, for a nominal fee, you can rent out air boots, boots that actually make you fly through the air inside the club. Many people used this method to reach their favorite areas in the bar that spanned all five stories of the club, not a single wall wasn't covered by a bar, or a lounge, or something.
Turning around Evan looked for his next victim before in the corner of the platform, he saw an unoccupied pair of air boots someone had left there. Taking advantage of the 'no limit' policy of the boots, Evan ran over, strapped them on and went flying into the club's empty air space.[Einarr :.: Realm of Light :.: Cross City :.: Town Square]
Before Einarr could rush off into battle, the mysterious man showed up. Right as he was about to speak, he noticed his shield being disintegrated and replaced by a new shield, a much larger shield with excellent craftsmanship and designs which he had never once seen before. "What...What in the name of the gods is this?" Einarr asked, staring incredulously at the shield."....Asmund...." ______________The name of the shield rang in Einarr's head, and soon he had visions, no, memories of a man who looked suspiciously like his father only a much younger version of his father. "Calm yourself Einarr! Now is not the time to see such visions!" he yelled at himself, trying to clear the visions from his head.
Looking up, Einarr noticed one of the nameless creatures swooping in to attack Nacht before he would have been able to react. "Boy! Watch yourself!" he yelled, running to reach Nacht before the nameless could attack, although knowing it was futile.
...Or was it?
Before Einarr could reach Nacht, he was teleported in a flash of light between Nacht and the nameless, allowing him to destroy the nameless before it could attack Nacht.
Awestruck by his own ability, Einarr slowly turned his head to Nacht before giving him a big smile and saying "I don't know about you boyo, but I'm starting to think this is going to be a good day." Not a split second after that, Einarr let out a gigantic yell and slammed the edge of his shield into one of the nameless' face. "Most definitely going to be a good day."

[Kale: Realm of Darkness: Euphorika: Club Aero]
Kale blinked up at what had to be the nightclub from the back. He was staring at the already open vent that would lead into the airducts.
"...The b*****d did something for me? Not bad."
Climbing up and through, the assassin waited as the man in the stall finished whatever he was doing(Kale had no want of knowing what it was), then once he left, Kale dropped down.
Dusting himself off and putting his mask back on, he walked out into the nightclub, immediately ignoring the music, the drinks, and the people...not so much the people, but he was looking for just one.
His target wasn't going to be easy to find in this crowd.
"God damn it all..."[Abel: Realm of Light: Cross City: Town Square] The former mockingbird jumped at the sound of the siren. What was it warning them o...oh. Abel took a step back as he saw the creatures traveling across the houses. He hadn't seen anything like that before...and he wasn't as much of a fighter as the others that were on the other side of the square appeared to be...but those thoughts quickly dispersed as a guitar floated towards him. He looked at it, head cocked to the side, before he heard a voice: "...Symphonic Rhapsody..." It was like he was quickly experiencing a dream, seeing things that had never happened to him before, and before he knew it, he was holding the guitar, traveling into those new memories before he started to play it, the music matching the tone he wanted as though he had been playing it for years. (Abel starts playing Strength Ballad for the others in the town square)
