Chatterbox: KYNGDOM™ RP Board
I didn't catch
I didn't catch Alexandria. Someone else caught me.
I was after her, tracking her, yes. But then, out of nowhere, a buck and a man ambushed me. I fought back with all my might, trying to escape the demon deer and his sidekick. I used every power I had in me, but healing powers and an exceptional green thumb aren't very helpful against two men three times stronger and bigger than you. They shot me with a sedative, forcing me into an unnatural sleep. I woke an estamated hour later in a dog crate in the back of a pickup truck on my way to nowhere. I tried to pry open the bars, but I couldn't. Either I was losing my powers or there was some horrable and dark magic at work. Neither option sounds that good to me. Roughly midday I was given a meager meal of bread and cheese by the man. He had dark hair and a scraggly beard, and loads of tattoos. He looked a little bit like a streetfighter. Not the kind of guy I wanted to be heald captive by. After eating the cheese, I started feeling sleepy. They must have slipped something in the food. I was knocked out. When I woke up next, I had some news.
The good news was I was out of the dog crate.
The bad news, I was in a a forest, surrounded by other people. But, they weren't normal people. They all had wings. Like me.
This, my dear friends, is the part where I screamed.

Everyone- after we get back to base I am leaving for a while. I am going to take one last permenant potion (there's an antidote) that will change me to human. I am going back to Catastrophe's army. But not in the way you think- I'm going in to spy. I'll be Gabria Aster, and hopefully I'll move my way up in the ranks of his army- because more information will be gained. I'll try to report back through transitions information gained .
Wish me luck. I never liked him.

Once everyone is situated I turn to Mina and shadow.
"I entered through a small hole I blew in the outer covering. Alarms have already been sounded, so it would be wise not to go out that way. Instead I have found an underground pipe system that funnels the nearby river into here. I think that we can get through one of the entrances, then make our way through the system and outside. There are some automatons for a distraction," I motion towards the truck bed, "but with luck we shouldn't have to use them."
They all nod.
"Is your arm really metal?" Brynn says timidly.
"Yup. Mostly. It's kinda cumlinative."
Motioning for them to follow, I start to run into the forest. We dodge between trees, shadow and Mina avoiding flying because of fear of detection. Finally we hear a stream, and I veer towards the sound. A blue ribbon threading through the forest appears, and I come to the edge.
Switching my arm to radar, I scan the stream. Finally it beeps and without hesitation I walk to the center of the current. Mina and shadow follow, Mina carrying Brynn.
"You are gonna have to get wet. Sorry, but it's the only way out."
shadow takes out a dagger hidden in her clothes and hacks at a porthole in the streambed. It finally opens and I hand around aquifiers. We pop them into our mouths, and Mina dissapears into the hole.
shadow grabs my arm. "Is there any way that we could come back to save these people? There are some that I don't want to die." She blushes.
I nod. "We will try."
And with that we descend into the pipes.
(January 2, 2017 - 8:39 pm)
Trillian-
i follow quietly behind sprocket down into the sewers. The water was mostly clean but it was deep. Ughhh... of all of the times to have metal wings. Suddenly I hear a splashing behind me.
pressing my commlink, in hipster to Sprocket, "someone is following us, let me check it out. I'll be right back."
"got it" she muttered back and I turned around.
Valaya-
I splash noisily through the sewers. I had decided to follow the resistance members, it's not like they could be worse than the mutant zoo. I hadn't seen Ava since we started following Brynn. I hoped she was safe. I stumble around a bend in the pipes and run smack into someone. Staggering back I look up to see a girl five or six years older than me. She had a mud splattered red cloak and metal dragon wings clipped to her back.
"Why are you following us?" She growled menacingly.
i gulped nervously and stuttered something that sounded like "s-shadow say... the r-resistance... help...?
She sighed and offered me a disgruntled smile. "Ok, follow me"
we turned and headed off down the tunnel.
(January 2, 2017 - 10:11 pm)
Mina doesn't look like she wants to talk, and Sprocket and Trillian are having their own conversation, so I walk next to Brynn while she bombards me with questions.
"Who are you?"
"I am shadow, also known as shadow of everywhere, and before you came, I was the Angel of Death. Now I'm just a resistance member, a birb-girl, and someone who really loves horses."
"What did you do to me?" she asks, and this time I can see fear in her eyes.
"I transferred my powers- and most likely even some of my spirit- to you. This means you can now probably bring people back from the dead, as long as they've died recently, and you might have even taken some of my healing powers. I think I still have most of those, though." I say, looking at a wound in my arm. I put my hands over it, and feel the blood seep back inside, "Nope, still got those. Oh, and you might have a strange craving for chocolate chip cannolis."

(I'm pretty sure I was with Valaya)
The girl Trillian excepts us and Valaya and I exchange a glance before following her through the sewers.
The little girl Brynn is tiny so Mina has to carry her on her back. Shadow follows behind Mina and Sprocket is in the front. Although it's hard to escape through sewers, it may be the only chance we've got, so I'm not complaining.
(January 3, 2017 - 9:04 am)
I head to the entrance of the Resistance base where a couple of walking cats greet me.
"Your highness," one says, while they both bow.
I wave my hands at them. "Don't worry, it's not nessacary. Where are the rest of you?"
The cats straighten. "They went on a mission," one of them says. "But we still have expected you, and the Resistance would like to thank you and your kingdom for your support."
I laugh. "There's really no need to be so formal."
The cat nods. "Of course. We have been waiting for the rest of them to get back if you want to join us?"
I smile and nod. "Alright."
(January 3, 2017 - 10:22 am)
I sit against the cell wall, looking at the door. They took Alexandria to who knows where, and I was all alone. Again.
I missed her. She was the only kinda-sorta friend I had. No kids back at home wanted to play with me. I was to weird, and everyone was afraid of my dad because of his posistion. That's why my only friend was Dad. But now he was gone too.
Why doesn't anyone leave us alone? The Resistance locks us up, and SOCS does the same thing. I just wished this war would end.
Taking a deep breath, I look around the room. There had to be some way out. I just wished Alexandria was here. I hoped she was OK.
(January 3, 2017 - 10:39 am)
"We've pick up a new person. They want to come out with us." Trillians voice crackles over my radio. Muttering under my breath, I turn around and look at the tunnel. Slowly Trillian comes into view, followed by a small girl with wings.
"We have to hurry. I'm sure alarms have been sounded by now."
We continue on for several yards when my base radio comes to life.
"The emotions reader, prisoner 7, has escaped," the voice says.
"Shoot," I mutter. "She could have been useful."
I tell the news to the others and they groan.
"There's nothing we can do about it know," shadow sighs. "We just have to get out of here."
We start to walk, and finally we see a stream of water flowing from a grid on the ceiling. One by one we hoist ourselves up, until we are standing in the middle of a stream of water. Making our way to the shore, we trudge through the ice cold water. Finally we reach the bank and walk over to where a truck is waiting with a driver inside. Then we hop in and head towards the base.
(January 3, 2017 - 11:02 am)
"I think we should broadcast this next part right to the Resistance. So we can see their reactions," Headmistress snarls.
They set up my handcuffs, the serum, and the camera. What a beautiful show.
The screen comes to life and I can see Shadow, Mina, Sprocket, Trillian and others looking at the screen in surprise. Headmistress steps in front of me.
"Hello, viewers!"
"What do you want, Rigga?" Mina growls.
Headmistress steps behind me so I'm seen and Shadow gasps. "What are you doing Rigga?!"
Now's my chance.
"SHADOW!" I yell. Guards rush up and try to silence me. They fail. "WE'RE IN THE WINTERWOOD BASE IN WINTERWOOD, NORTHERN KYNGDOM! DEE'S WITH ME! HURRY!"
I can hear them all shouting right as Headmistress slams the broadcast off.
She turns to me and gives me a menacing smile.
"You shouldn't have done that, dear."
(January 3, 2017 - 1:26 pm)
"We need to go get her!" I scream, "That's my sister they're torturing!"
"First of all," says Mina, "we don't know they're torturing her, Second, you're too weak right now to do anything but train Brynn, which is actually what you should be doing. Third, it's obviously a trap."
"So what's he plan then? We let her get killed while I sit here and babysit?"
"No. me and the other walking cats will go out in the field and rescue her, while you stay here and heal."
Then Mina leaves, and I'm left in the room with the little Angel.
(January 3, 2017 - 3:42 pm)
Wait. Didn't Mina say she was leaving? Could she still do that?
Once we get back to the base I check up on the prison soldiers. They give me the report of Dee's escape, and then I say goodbye and go to my room.
After taking a nice, long shower I walk to my tool bench and start working. Layed out in front of me is a life size human automaton, it's head unassembeld. I grab my tools and start working, calming down as I do.
I had started on the human robots a while back, but I had not had enough time to finish them. My hope was that after the ball I could have worked on them more, but that had turned out to not go as I had planned.
Around me, all of my other automatons were at work, bringing me tools and straightening up. The room was full of whirring and clanking, and I felt myself unwind.
Then my radio beeped.
"We need your help in figuring out what to do about the girl we brought with us. shadow is occupied with Brynn, and Mina is preparing to leave." Trillians voice sounds tired, so reluctantly I leave my work bench and head to the conference rooms.
(January 3, 2017 - 5:48 pm)
wait, WHAT?!?!?! Mina's leaving? As in she's killing her character Mina, or as in the actual person is going to stop going on Cricket? Also, WHEN DID SHE SAY THAT?!?!?!?!?
Sorry, I guess that's a bit of an over reaction but she was the first person to really post on one of my RPs, and I have started to consider her as one of my friends on Cricket.
(January 3, 2017 - 7:29 pm)
I think she meant the character Mina was going to go somewhere that's not wherever you are, but the author Mina had better not stop coming or kill her charrie.
Mexi says ahpa. Mexi, do you have a father???
(January 3, 2017 - 9:58 pm)
Things have gone on full crazy mode at the clearing. It seems like some people left, and the other people aren't happy about it.
As I turn to leave, I notice brown-blonde hair coming from the other side of the clearing. Aly.
(January 3, 2017 - 6:23 pm)
Sorry, age 11, the Forest.
