Bats! Attack! SailHaven is mine.

Yeah Rae. Not a good time to come back. Things have really gone to the dogs. Did you hear that Octavia is now Her Most Royal Majesty now? Oh yeah, and I wouldn't say that you associate with me openly because the "government" is trying to murder me.

I walk into a throneroom. But instead of Elliot sitting there, Octavia rests upon the throne. A couple of guards bow beside me. I don't. I'm loyal to no one. 

Octavia snorts at a suprised attendent. "Ah, she's just being Olympia."

The attendent smirks uneasily.

A guard walks up to the attendent and whispers something in his ear. The attendent says it out loud to Octavia.

"The war in Aslahari is over. Catastrophe is currentley occupying it."

"Over?" Octavia asks. "I thought it was going to be moved to someplace else. Somewhere in West Kyngdom, or maybe Mer...."

The attendent shakes his head. "From the news traveling around, it's over."

"Understood," Octavia sighs.

She waves the guard away and there is a period of silence.  

I clear my throat. "I'm still in the proccess of finding Sprocket...."

"Oh, yes!" Octavia continues. "While you're at it, kill her friends too."

"But Octavia," I sputter. "The deal was-"

"The deal was, my dear," Octavia interupts. "For you to kill Sprocket. Sprocket's friends are a part of her life. And we want that to end, yes?"

"Yes," I mutter. "But I can't do it by myself."

Octavia laughs lightly. "You are very good at what you do, dear. You can't take out her and her measily friends?"

"They're not that measily," I mutter.

Octavia scoffs. "I know. I figured. That's why I've put together a little...team... for you."

"Team?" I ask hesitantly. I don't usually work with people.

"Yes," she replies.

"What can they do?" I ask.

"Well," she replies. "The first one is Tuera. She's been trained to assasinate since she was a little younger than you. She's handy with a blade, and she almost never misses whenever she throws her knives. She'll be useful. The next one," Octavia continues. "Is Riuex. She's a bird/human hybrid. One of the only ones of those out there. We know of a girl, whom I believe is known as, 'Shadow,'" she says, looking at the attendent. The attendent nods. Octavia looks back at me. "I think she is here in SailHaven. But anyway, Riuex's a bird/human hybrid, she's good with any weapon, and she can fly. Pretty handy. There's also Auva. She's a little, what do you call it... hyper. But she's excellent with a gun and knife. And with explosives. Finally, there's Ravage. She's a cat. Her real name is Mina, but she doesn't know that. She's good with any gun, or any weapon at that, and she's also great at hand-to-hand combat. She's trained by Catastrophe's army. She's actually one of the generals."

I nod. "Okay. I'll go collect them."

"Actually," Octavia replies. "They're already here."

Octavia waves at the guards guarding the door, and they open it. In walks four people. Well, people and animal.

"Hi!" a blonde girl in braids chirps. "I'm Auva. Nice to meet you! You must be Olympia. Octavia told us about you. I know that we're supposed to kill someone named Sprocket and her friends, so could you tell me a little bit more about her-"

"Okay, calm down!" a girl with dark hair pulled back into a single braid says. "We haven't even been introduced yet."

"We don't need to worry about that right now, Tuera," a girl with brown wings responds. "We need to know who we're going after."

While they argue, I look over at the cat. Half of her face is made out of metal, and so are one of her legs. Her tail twitches slightly within the small circular motion it makes. Her ears bend back sometimes, and they move around. She looks at the rest of the group with her arms crossed. I look back at the group.

"Excuse me!" I say loudly. "Why don't we take this somewhere else?"

I look back at Octavia.

"Yes," she replies. "Go to one of the meeting rooms in the castle."

"I hope it's a fairly big space," the girl with wings, Riuex, responds. "I need a place to stretch out my wings and pace a little bit."

The attendent nods and looks at the guards. "Take them to Meeting Room A."

The guards usher us out, and we walk down the hallway until we finally arrive at the meeting room. We close the doors behind us, and sit down at a big table. The room is large and sqaure, and it has a flight of upstairs.

"Okay," Tuera says. "First things first, any of you have someone in Sprocket's group of friends that you specifically want to take care of yourself?" 

(If anyone wants to be any of these characters, besides Mina, you can. That would be nice, and you could create a backstory and everything. Please and thank you!) 

~Rae

Sprocket, I won't talk to you out in public or anything, but we can still be friends/sisters, right? 

I look around at the group, putting my arm on the table.

"Yes," Auva says. "I do."

"Well, who?" Tuera asks.

"A girl that goes by 'Trillian Coggs'," Auva replies. "I knew her sister, Sasha, and I knew that Sasha wanted her dead. I owe Sasha a debt, so I might as well pay it back by killing Trillian."

Tueva nods. "Makes sense. Anyone else?"

"I want Sprocket," Olympia says. "My original assignement was to kill her, and I'm going to finish it."

Tueva nods again, turning to face Riuex. "How about you?"

"Well," she replies. "I heard there was another bird girl in these parts...."

Bird girl? Shadow?

"Don't worry about her," Olympia interupts. "She's not with Sprocket."

"In that case, I'll take Kilmene. We have some unfinished business we can go over when my knife's to her throat," Riuex replies. 

Olympia turns to me. "Looks like you're left with a girl named 'Icy'."

Icy. It's been a while since I've heard that name. I wonder how that wound's healing up from when I shot her. 

"So will you take her?" Olympia asks.

I turn to face Olympia and the rest of the group.

"With pleasure."

i soar far over kyngdom looking downwardsfor the SailHaven ruins. Trillian would be there, with my augmented sences i could pick up her life signes from miles away. trillian would pay for taking my stone. and for leting that octavia use it. far below me i can see a village. not sailhaven but they probably did something. sending down a blast of energy i wipe it off of the map. (this is just a random village i made up, has nothing to do with any threads) in the distance i see smoke. i was free, and they would pay.

i know this charrie sounds OP but i will be killing her off before she does anything to big. or maybe i will take away her powers, not sure yet. 

Well shadow, here is a quick recap.

We fought one war against Octavia, and that went pretty well. I was accepted into society along with my criminal friends. Then Octavia, unfortunately, came back and we had to fight her. In the meantime Trillian showed up and Elliot she somehow got me turned into a vampire.

Meanwhile the war started and it wasn't going so hot. Trillian got stabbed and Elliot had to go to the hospital. Sail Haven fell, and pretty much everyone was waiting on Elliot. Then I accidentally said that the automatons were in my army, and Elliot blew up and tried to kill me. Then he resigned to Octavia and me and my friends are hiding under ground (though no one is supposed to know that). 

Oh yeah Alexander, I don'the think that there is anything left of Sail Haven to take. I'don't get out of here if I were you. 

Of course Rae!! It would be cool if we could meet up again though and you could continue on this RP...

Dear SailHavn,

Surrender, or it will rain bats tommorow.

Love,

Alexander 

hey! You forgot me in your recap!

We've been underground for days now.

I hate it.

I hate Elliot. The character. I respect the author and by no means mean actual harm.

But Sprocket seems to be thrilled. "This was an old underground warehouse that I sometimes used back in my old...days." She said, looking around with delight. "And look! There's some blankets, we can use those..." She murmured things while she stepped around, opening crates, for the room was cluttered with them.

"Sprocket..." I mutter. "Trillian, would you help me with this crate?" She asks. Tug. Tug. Tug. The lid flies off. They gasp and murmur. I walk over. "What is it?" I ask wearily. "It's...instruments....?" Sprocket asks, a note of confusion in her voice. "I guess someone else used this warehouse." Trillian noted. 

I rummage through it....then my hand finds something smooth and I pull it out.

It's an instrument made from a large animal's tooth.

I can't help but think of Claaws. I quietly step out into the tunnel system. I need some time alone.

And then I hear footsteps...
