I will start writing my post as soon as Cho's post shows up. I'm so sorry that I haven't been writing lately. I just had to kill my first rp......very sad. I had to write a finale, so...... That took FOREVER.

Hugo~

"Everybody! You need to get away from me!" Jen shouts, wings appearing on her back. She lifts off of the ground. "Jen, wait-" I begin to say, but Crystal summons wings and takes off after her. I never knew they could do that, maybe I can, too. For a moment, the only thing I think about is growing a big pair of wings. It doesn't work. "Well," I say, looking back at the others. "What are we waiting for?"

There's a stable about 100 paces away from the Broken Moon, so I get there in no time. I don't even look to see if the others follow me; frankly, I don't care. Flinging open the gate of a small mare's stall, I grab on to the horse's mane and hoist myself up over its back. "Hey!" a deep voice booms from the other side of the barn, but I urge the horse forward and we make it out before the owner of the stables can get me. The strangers we met at the well stand just outside, but the horse and I are galloping past them before they can even register what is going on. "Ya!" I shout, running the mare to her limit, following Crystal and Jen's path through the dark night.

A while later, I see the body of a girl hit the ground not too far away from me. Another figure that can only be Crystal lands beside her. "Go!" I yell at the horse, who has ceased to run and is walking at a slow pace. "Oh, for crying out loud," I say, jumping off the mare and sprinting toward Jen and Crystal. As I get closer, I notice that Jen doesn't... she just doesn't seem like herself. Before I can do anything, she whips out a sword and points it at Crystal's throat.

"Jen! What are you doing?" I gasp in shock. She lets down her guard for one second, and Crystal slips out of harm's way, knocking Jen's sword out of her hand, towards me. I pick it up before she can and hold it out in front of me, for defense. "Jen," I say. "What the heck is going on?"

I think I'm going to drop out of this RP... I haven't posted anything yet, and I don't really think that my charrie would really fit into this RP. Anyway, thought I'd let you know..

September, are you sure you don't want to be part of the anti-monster group? If she can summon weapons, that might be a good place for her. But if you really want to leave, that's fine. :(

Sorry I haven't been posting! I missed a lot, due to an extremely busy week. But now it's Saturday! Yippee!

Hazel~

Hazel's village day had been extremely wild. But thankfully she managed to get out alive--and so did all the villagers. Now it was night; the majority of her day having been sneaking around and the minority having been actually making purchases. Hazel didn't know what time exactly, but then the large, crumbling clock that looked over what the village had titled 'town square' (that was hardly a name for it) went off one time and she stopped with a jolt. It was one in the morning!

Hazel crossed the empty streets of the town. In the distance, she could see the well she normally passed on her way home. Hazel could've sworn she saw feet running into the trees. Into her forest. Hazel didn't mind, but the thought of her quiet, reclusive life coming to an end made her shiver as images of people hiding in her treehouse flashed through her head.

Hazel reached the well. There were fresh footprints, leading straight down the tiny, barely visible path to her tree house. Oh, no, Hazel thought, and took off down the path. Luckily she knew some shortcuts and could get in front of whoever was invading.

~ ~ ~

It was a group of teenagers much like her, with one trying to kill the other one and the rest of them standing defenselessly around in the clearing not a hundred feet from Hazel's home. Thankfully, Hazel was in front of them, hiding. She just wanted to get a good look at these people in case they ever came back. It was important they didn't see her, for they might spread the word to the rest of the village and soon she'd have to move.

The events were scaring Hazel. One of the kids had a sword at the other one's throat. Hazel thought the boy with the tattoes all over him could've stopped her easily. She was right. He approached his wild friend as one would a mountain lion. The evil girl looked at him without taking the sword from her quarry's throat.

"Stop hurting her," he said calmly. "She's your friend."

"No, you're wrong," the evil girl hissed. "My name is Eclipse, and this girl is about to die."

Hazel, or course, was very confused by now, and from her view in the bushes, she could not muster enough courage to jump out and scare them. She might jolt herself, thus triggering a breakdown and nightmarish events would follow. Buuuut, it seemed like a surprise was all the girl-in-danger needed to escape the iron blade, and Hazel would be delighted to save someone's life...

"Hey!" Hazel barked (which was unusual for her), with her eyes closed and her hands in front of her face (not the most heroic pose, but hey! It was better than the alternative).

Everybody, including Eclipse, looked over, startled. The girl-in-danger ducked as the tension in the blade was released, and she retreated to a safe distance. Then came the feared question, the one Hazel knew they'd ask.

"Who are you, and why were you hiding in the bushes?"

Hazel didn't answer. She ran. 

I PROMISE I will post today or tomorrow!!!

Also, could Ash and Cobalt have possibly met before? Not like they know each other really well, but they do know each other.  

/-\ Ash

Jasmine whirls around and in a flash of silver shoves her sword under Crystal's throat. Hugo knocks it to the ground crying:" "Jen, what the heck is going on?!" She moves so fast I can barely see her. Jasmine swoops down, grabs her sword, and is about to behead both her friends when a voice interrupts her. 

"Hey!"

She whips around, giving Hugo enough time to plead: "Jen, what's going on? Stop trying to hurt us! We're your friends!"

"You're wrong," she hisses, turning back to face the two terrified teens. "My name is Eclipse, and you are both about to die." That's enough for me. Just as her sword is about to connect with Hugo's neck, I lunge forward and shoot a ball of fire at Eclipse's face. Cobalt Dusk appears beside me, whisking Crystal and Hugo back. 

"Dusk, keep them back!" I shout, bracing myself. "It's gonna get hot over here."

I drop my hands, breathing deeply. It's been a while since I've done anything this big. Hopefully it won't kill me. I reach deep, deep into my reservoir of fire, and raise my hands just as Eclipse lunges at me, snarling. Walls of fire form around her, creating a small box. A roof blazes into existence as she flaps her wings, trying to fly out the top. Within moments, Eclipse is surrounded by a small hit of fire. Grinning, I turn back around, and fall flat on my face. 

----------------

"Sparkboy! Sparkboy!"

Someone is slapping my face.

"Shut up Dusk," I moan, trying to sit up and failing.

"Ash, you need to get up."

"Why?"

"You're burning down the clearing."

"Oh joy."

I manage to get to my feet with Dusk and Hugo's help, and peer around the clearing. Eclipse is still trapped in my hut, which is good, but I don't know how long I can hold it. If I had made a hut out of normal fire, all the oxygen inside would have been consumed, killing Eclipse, but I knew that somewhere inside her was Jasmine. So, I had made the fire off my own reserves. Now, it was taxing me, slowly using my energy up bit by bit. I wasn't in flames yet, but the grass beneith my feet was beginning to smolder, which would definitely spread. I sigh. There's only one way to end this. 

"Crystal," I say. "I need you to drench me."

She gapes at me. "What?"

"You need to soak me right now, or else this entire town is going to burn."

"Wha- Wait, what?"

"Just drench me!!!" I shout. "But whatever you do, don't get my head wet." 

Top! This must not die!
