There was a time, long, long ago, that you could go only to either Heaven or Hell... This time is long lost... This time is coming back...Umbra The Other Side of Death Now, the living shaw enter the land of the dead... In the past, there were two places to go after death: Heaven, an utopic place to rest for eternity, and Hell, filled with constant wars and rulled by an evil king. Butsomeone stood against the king, and made an amulet as powerful as Death's scythe, with powers including teleporting, intangibility and mass dimensional travel. He was killed but his work, his amulet, Bezule's Amulet, was already. centuries latter, four friends used it's powers to fight Death, the King and the whole Hell itself... and won. One of them became the new king, spliting Hell in the Umbra, or purgatory, where people would live and pay for their sins, and a place where only the worse would go until they repented, a place that kept the name of it's origin, the new Hell. Another friend was given the control of this place, but knew there was no need for it but to stop people from escaping. As to Death, his old job was divided by the two remaining friends, one taking the dead to the Umbra and the other sending them to their new destinys. Bezule's amulet was sent to the land of the living, where no one would have knowledge of how tomake use of it, and it would not be a threat. They were wrong. Somehow the amulet was sent back to Umbra through a portal. Luckly, it's location is yet unknown, but it's mere presence is enough to break Umbra's balance. It MUST be found before whoever opened the portal does, but the forces controlling the Umbr can't go because it would both let it (more) out of balance and bring either chaos or a Amulet Race. So the Harvester of Souls, one of the friends who took Death's place, had an idea that would both get the job done and not draw attention. Are you ready?

Rules or What can and can't be done 1-Follow T.o.S 2-Follow the Guild's rules 3-Even if I ignore some of the rule-breaking, don't keep doing it. I may have considered a little slip, but a mistake is not one when made on purpose - and one made more than once is clearly made on purpose. 4-If you are gonna RP, do it properly. No putting your personal mood in the character for no reson, or trying to go against my word. 5-If I say something happened, good or bad, it happened! No trying to argue, this will only give yourself trouble. Arbitrary? Yes. Why? BECAUSE I SAID SO! I can do with the RP whatever I want. In it I AM GOD! Do you question God? Don't answer... 6-In time, this RPconsider no religion, for good or bad. If you are offended by anything regarding this... Either get over it or go away! 7-What happened to usual people, or worse, the weak ones? Godmodders will lose their privileges as soon as possible in the RP! 8-Double posting will not be tolerated. Posting again before the end of the turn is considered double posting in this RP, by the way. If you do it, your previous post will be eddited to fit any new action and the new one will be deleted merciless! 9-Rules may be changed and/or added without previous warning.

How to Play Explains itself Ok, first you need to send me your character by PM. If you don't know what is a PM, ask in the Out of Character section. What you need to sendme : Quote: -Character Name -Physical Description -Signature Personal Trait(a habit, a phisical problem, a psychological problem) -Way you died. Since it is gonna be RPed too, being as vagueas possible let us work more on it through the RP. But being more accurate is more descriptive and will give us more things to work on. Your choice In the RP, I will post what happened in the previous turn you will post your character's possible actions and speeches for this one. Keep the word "possible" in your mind: some actions may not be fulfilled. Being as vague as possible gives them more chance of being, since they are gonna be more adaptative, but being more accurate makes your them also more powerfull/strong/the-adjective-that-fits-it-better. You can, if you want, throw up to ten dices every turn. Anything more than that will be ignored. They may or may not be used. However, throwing them save yourself of letting me draw them for you if needed, and maybe your luck is better than mine... My dices are also be thrown by miself, so you may not be able to know if you did good until it is too late. The dices will be used in some turns to check if your actions are or not successfull, and how much. Any need of more than ten dices and I'll throw them myself, so think well before posting your turn. I'll post the next turn the following week, not the same time but almost always Sunday. Any character whose actions weren't posted till then are gona be used by myself as only being there doing nothing, what sometimes may give them trouble. If I for some reason can't post Sunday people who didn't post till then will get some extra time till my following post, and I also won't update the Sunday right after that if someone wasn't able to post their actions yet, but the following one will go back to schedule. Sometimes I'm gonna make a faster turn, ending in the middle of the week if everyone was able to make their actions already, so the weekend one is going to be as if I missed theprevious Sunday. No answering questions in the same turn, unless your character acted after the question was made. As you can see in the rules, your second post will be deleted and your first edited, so your RPing is gonna be comprimised. I guess that covers all. Anything else, this post will be edited.

Chapter 1 Let the travel begin As she walks through the street the girl cross in front of a store selling TVs. As usual, they are all showing the same channel. Right now, the chanel is a News one. On it, there shows a new shopping at a country at war. Apparently, the USA sent the SWAT to help the country. But she didn't bother with the news, after all it was so far all she could do was watch. So she kept walking. She walked until she heard a little scream, that stopped fast as if something blocked it, in an alley nearby. There was no one around, so she was the only one that heard. Meanwhile, in another country, this one at a war, a SWAT team entered a building, a shopping, that had been used to keep the innocents far from the battlefield, but now was invaded by a terrorist force. The USA offered their support to the innocent before, and now was the time to prove by sending the best they could offer. In a store that used to sell weapons, a terrorist already saw the swat team through the window and was keeping a family as a hostage. Among the family members, there was a girl with a teddy bear, even not being a little one anymore. The SWAT team members split. Four members went to thefront door, and the leader and two others tried to enter in secret by using the emergency exits.

As the girl kept going, she got closer and closer to the sounds of someone struggling, till she was in front of the alley. She then involuntarilly turned her head, and she saw a man with a hand holding a knife over a little girl's mouth and looking for something on her purse with the other.
The SWAT team that was going through the emergency exit started going through the stairs. Their first priority was to make sure no hostages were hurt, and one of them saw some through a window in the third floor while coming in the helicopter.
The terrorist i the weapons' store was nervous. Even prepared to die if he needed, he clearly was scared by the thought. But obviously the hostages were even more scared than him...

"Kai couldnt help it, when she saw the child, she knew what she must do. she started down the alley, pereareing for a fight..."
Since the girl stoped crying, the man stoped paying attention to her and put his attention more on the purse. He put his whole hand in, and looked like he was having a hard time trying to find the money. He didn't notice the other girl entering the small alley.
The terrorist started checking his weapons. He took some time when his fingers got on top of a different grenade on his belt... He closed his eyes for a second then opened, clearly hoping he wouldn't need it. But then he heard gunfire and paid attention to the door, backs turned from the hostages while pointing the gun at them meaning he would fire if someone entered the door.
The SWAT tem was on the third floor already. Even moving silently and not speaking in any way but signals, one of the terrorists noticed them and shot. Then the two members starting shoting too, while the leader kept hidden going for the room with the hostages.

"when Kai was close enough, she screamed 'HEY!!! RUN GIRL!!!' and struck at the mugger" She was able to hit him in the face, mking him let go of his victim because of the pain. As the girl ran away, he tried to follow and catch her before she could get away, but firstwhile going though Kai he stabbed her in the belly. Before he pulled the knife out the girl's red shirt had a darker circle of blood getting bigger and bigger... Even barelly escaping, he was able to catch the other girl and was bringing her back to where they were, this time with the knife in her neck.
Even the other SWAT members trying to take out the terrorists' attention, one of them saw the leader trying to sneak to where the hostages where and shot, hitting him in the leg, cutting a hamstring.

Kai barelly could stand on her feet, but she managed. She could see the man dragging the girl to near her, ignoring her as if she was never there. Taking advantage if it, she faked falling, and with a little effort she jumped to him, aiming to grab his knife out. She was able to get a hold on his hand, but lost balance and only didn't fell directly to the ground because of it.
Spider felt to the ground and started creeping in the direction of the store with the hostages, holding a gun in his hand. One of his two fellow SWAT members tried to cover him while the other went to try and get him, but even so a terrorist wasable to hit his hand with the gun first, making he drop it.
