FFO Survivor: Ghaleon

Hm. Those two are exceedingly difficult to tail. Perhaps they are wandering randomly, but given the skill they both have demonstrated in combat, I tend to think they have noticed me.

Well, no matter. I tire of slinking through the trees like a lesser primate, and now is as good a time as any to speak directly to them.

*Ghaleon climbs to a lower branch*

Hold. Here come those rogues again. Only two of them, this time - the third one, the angry young man with the giant machine, is nowhere to be seen.

Let us see how this plays out.

"Izlude, I think we got company..."

"Aw damn, not those morons again. Why won't they leave us alone?! Whaddya want, huh? What's your problem?!"

"You jerkoffs! Your ice spell SCREWED UP MY SPIFFY HAIR!!!"

"Your hair! The two of you and your friend with the machine attacked us without provocation, and all you can think about is your damn hair?!"

Perhaps I should intervene? This gives me the opportunity to accomplish two of my tasks in one fell swoop...

*Switching to third-person narration for the action sequence*

Izlude brandished his spear menacingly and Ronfar slowly drew his blood-stained mace. Both were clearly worn out and injured from the fighting, but they stood erect and ready for the onslaught.

Kuja started the battle with a fire spell, blossoming past the two allies as they leapt away from it. Reno stood by laughing as Kuja launched spell after spell.

Izlude leapt into the air, plunging his spear deep into the earth where Reno had stood a moment before. Ronfar charged into the fray at Kuja, whirling his mace savagely and shouting like an injured animal, but Kuja dodged aside after taking a glancing blow. Both Izlude and Ronfar were fighting skillfully and bravely, but clearly the injuries they had sustained had taken their toll. They glanced at each other, took a swig of wine each and prepared for a last-ditch charge.

A voice echoed from above:

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. You two need to learn some manners. It's bad form attacking people without a reason, you know."

And with that, the tall, silver-haired man unleashed an orb of magical energy which encapsulated Reno and Kuja, burning them with bolts of lightning. Both men dropped to the ground, but quickly began to scramble to their feet, angered but not incapacitated.

Izlude and Ronfar didn't give them that chance. Izlude vaulted into the sky and thrust his lance into Kuja's rather exposed leg, while Ronfar, with an entreaty to Lady Luck, flung a pair of flaming dice into Reno's chest, causing the man to fall back.

The tall man in the long silver cloak walked coolly up to Reno and drew his long amethyst blade.

"And for the record, your hair was beyond hope long before you met any of us."

And he swished the blade past Reno's head, clipping from it one of his treasured locks.

Reno and Kuja, angry but battered, limped off, shouting profanities as they went.

Ronfar wordlessly held out his wine flask to the stranger, who, smiling, said "I thank you, but you deserve it more than I."

Ronfar and Izlude both introduced themselves to the stranger. His scarlet eyes twinkled beneath his silver bangs as he declared simply, "I am called... Nash."

One vote each for Reno and Kuja

Vampire with a soul

By this point, Lucia was anxious to get back to that hut that presumably contained Althena. She had sensed that the evil that had attacked this area had retreated, at least for now, but her primary concern was getting to Althena. So, she gathered Marle and Vivi together with Celes, and proceeded to teleport them back to her other energy barrier. Which just happened to be in the exact direction Vivi's scan spell had pointed out.

When they got there, Marle and Vivi were brimming with questions. The usual ones.

"H-how d-did you d-do that?" The little black mage had never seen anything like this before.

"Was that...time travel?" That was the only explanation Marle had.

Lucia shook her head. "No. It is just simple teleportation. We were there, now we're here. Anyways, Althena seems to be in there." The black mage nodded.

"Can you scan that hut, then?"

The black mage nodded again. "I see 3 people inside...my spell shows names of Luna, Cloud, and Tifa."

Lucia nodded, "We seem to have found her then. Luna is Althena's other name. I shall go in first."

Lucia proceeded to do just that. When she opened the door, she found all 3 of them asleep...and the other girl badly injured. But, to Lucia, far more worrisome was the man. It seemed like he'd been tainted by Zophar. Or, if not Zophar, someone very similar to Zophar. But, first things first. She called forth her healing magic, and the gashes on Tifa dissapeared as if they were never there. She remained asleep, however. The man was going to be much harder to deal with. Not only was he tainted, he was strong. And she figured that it was the other girl's place to heal him. So she surrounded the man in a blue energy field, to keep him from hurting anyone. Luckily, she'd arrived there before Cloud could do any harm to Luna. Lucia went outside.

"I have good news and bad news. The good news is that Althena is most certainly in there. The bad news is, the man, Cloud, is tainted by evil somehow. But I sense it isn't his fault. I am going to ask the other girl to help me get rid of the taint of evil in Cloud when she wakes up."

Celes nodded, "So what do we do now?"

Lucia replied, "We wait for them to wake up, I guess. We can't really do anything until Tifa wakes up. As for Althena, she most certainly needs her rest at the moment." Lucia couldn't help thinking that if Luna were still a goddess, she wouldn't need rest at all. But, she also remembered the message Luna had left for her. She was happier this way. Despite the fact it left her vulnerable here.

So the 4 compainions decided to catch up on some rest themselves. No point in traveling under a hot sun anyway.

All-purpose Magical-girl!

Mizuki sighed... whoever was nearby just rushed off and got into yet another battle. Trying to find someone to speak with was going to be more than a regular chore here. She gazed around... most everything was burnt up or was riddled with bullet holes. At least there was one less thing to worry about... monsters. With everyone attacking others randomly, Mizuki doubted there would be many more strange freak-show monsters roaming around.

// I might as well just give up and sit here. Sooner or later, the fighting will stop, and maybe I'll get some answers... //

She pondered whether to pursue the ponytailed girl with the short magical child. How far would they be right now... ? The girl did, afterall, ask for some help... Mizuki shook her head. It seemed like everyone needed help here... she looked back at the few standing trees. Of course, not everyone accepted the help of others, apparently.

Mizuki shrugged, and teleported her way to the last place she thought the blonde and the mage had gone....

Once she got there, there were no more of those familiar voices. Mizuki was -done- with this wild goose chase. She sat on a nearby tree stump to contemplate her fate...

Sycophantic Liar

Stallkid stared on as Ryudo fought, the Mask eager to join in. But Stallkid was different. He wouldn't fight without reason, and he could see no reason to fight this group. He wanted to stop Ryudo, but for some reason, the Mask wouldn't let him. So Stallkid stood there, unable to fight or intervene. He watched as the man dodged their guns' fire, throwing down some plants and then running off.

Stallkid rose into the air, tracking the man once more. This time, however, his intent was less malevolent. "Who is this Ryudo? And why does the Mask want him?" He wondered. The man was a strong fighter - nothing to rival the power of the Mask, but strong for a man.

"You!?"

"Oh, come on." Ultimecia said, impatiently. "You don't have to be like that."

"So there's people chasing you?" Tseng asked, a smile playing across his face.

Ultimecia said nothing.

"Excuse me for a moment." Tseng said, rising. "Help yourself to some Levikron, it's foul stuff anyway."

He started moving towards the door, but Zemeckis blocked his way. "I don't think you're going anywhere."

Tseng swallowed, and nodded. He moved over to where Dias was lying. Zemeckis sat in the doorway, looking fo signs of pursuit.

Tseng slowly reached down for Serpenttooth and fingered the materia in it. Ultimecia looked over at him suspiciously and he turned away.

"Tornado." he whispered.

The temple shook, and Tseng grabbed Dias' arm, running past a confused Zemeckis. Tseng took the opportunity to slash him as he dived past, leaving a crumbling temple behind as he dragged Dias into the undergrowth. Then he ran, and ran until he could go no further.

One vote to Zemeckis

Izlude - FFO Survivor

Izlude shouted to the two: "Better get out of here while you still have the legs to carry!"

Izlude turned to the strange man

Izlude: "Greetings Nash, My name is Ree.....er... Izlude, and this Is my associate Ronfar"

Ronfar: "Pleased to meet you, thanks or the help"

Nash: " Your welcome"

Strange... this man looks like the marquis....

Izlude: "your a powerful magician indeed.. we could use your help" *Izlude gives him an elixer as a kindly gesture*

just then a little man in red overalls and wearing a red cap ran by... he accidentally tripped on the edge of Izlude's spear causing him a minor injury.. the funny little man limped off

Ronfar: "what the hell was that?"

Izlude: "heh.. i guess i shouldn't leave my spear lying around"

Nash: "so whats the plan"

Ronfar: "we walk..... *points in random direction* that way!"

Nash: "agreed"

Izlude: "right... lets get moving"

Marle, Lucia, Vivi, and Celes reclined beside the hut. It was the first time they had been able to relax in awhile, and they took the opportunity to rest their weary bodies.

Vivi pulled his hat down past his eyes to block out the pounding sunlight. "So, w-what does this Althena lady look like??" he asked.

Lucia hesitated. She wasn't used to a question like this, and it became evident to her that it was not an easy one to answer. "Well, her appearance varies slightly from time to time. Right now she's a young lady with willowy blue hair and a sparkle in her eye."

Celes was surprised. "We've been chasing a young girl? Are you sure she can help us?"

"Hey, I'm young, and I'm pretty darn strong," Marle reminded her.

Celes sighed. She couldn't even trust her own strength at this point, so how could they expect her to trust someone she had never even met?

Marle sensed Celes' discomfort, and offered her some support. "Listen, we gotta stick together. I know that none of this makes sense to any of us, but we might as well help eachother out! Isn't that right Vivi?!"

Vivi's only reply was a gentle snore.

OOC:Wow, it's Monday Morning and I'm not at school. Maybe I'll be able to finish this thing after all.....

Seems somebody cast Quake3 on me... that wasn't very nice...

BIC: Cid's plans had turned to shit and he was basically lost. For some reason he forgot about everyone and went on a rampage. He shouted out to anyone near by that he would be back later.

He ran throught the jungle with his spear ready. On the way he saw Selphie getting changed.

"$%$# in the middle of the jungle? It's just a grass stain goddammit. Thanks for your help anyway. I'm gona be back later... don't get yourself killed." Shouted Cid before running off.

He kept running until he came across Sephiroth. He was already pissed off at from being quaked and had been pretty beaten up to day so he used Highwind on Sephiorth's ass before running on.

EDIT: damn u're a sidekick...

He kept running and saw Reno and his team in the bushes. He cast Fire3 on the trees and kept going.

>>>ONE VOTE TO THE OTHER TWO MEMBERS OF FLIP AND SPIFFIES<<< (i've already voted for reno...)

He shouted out, "Reno, get a haircut." (OOC: LOL )

Cid was pumped up now and was running aimlessly attacking creatures and burning trees. After about five minutes his Limit Break was wearing off and he came to rest near a quiet cove.

Guess what happens here.

>>>One vote to Mintaka!!!!!<<<

later... ill be back

Où est la Lumière?

Tatsuya...
Tatsuya....
Tatsuya...
Come...here...
Tatsuya...
Come and get your punishment....
Tatsuya...


"NOOO!"
Tatsuya woke up, breaking into cold sweat. He was beaten unconcious by the dark figure that attacked Cloud awhile ago. A surprise attack, so out of the blue, that he did not even have time to prepare himself and his Persona.

Gosh...this place is dangerous....and I don't even know who the f**k is that stupid man and he attacked me like that! What a bastard...

Tatsuya got up and drew his katana. After the surprise attack, he could not afford to lose his guard. He walked on, every step with cautious, being very careful not to alert any creatures in sight.

Suddenly, Tatsuya saw a dark figure coming from his right. Panicking, he dodges and slashes the figure. The figure was cut but immediately raise his hand and punched Tatsuya in the stomach. Tatsuya rolled on the floor in pain, not able to hold his katana properly anymore. The dark figure came forward and kicked his katana aside and muttered.
"Flare"

Tatsuya was shock as his body floated up and was engulfed in a ball of red energy which exploded, almost ripping Tatsuya's body apart.

"Urg!! No, dammit!! I can't...die...now...PERSONA!!"

Tatsuya used his last bit of energy to summon his Persona, Apollo and cast Maha Agidyne on the attacker. The attacker burst into flames.

"Ahh! No!"

Tatsuya took out a bottle of medicine and drank it and at the same time, picking up his katana. He threw the empty bottle away before charging towards the attacker. But by this time, the attacker had already stood up and getting ready to cast another spell.

"Not this time!" Tatsuya shouted, slashing the attacker's hand with his katana and manage to stop the attacker from casting another round of that horrible spell on Tatsuya.

"Sun God, Apollo, I summon thee! Come to my aid now! GIANT FIST!"

Tatsuya summoned Apollo again, which came out and did the special skill, Giant Fist on the attacker, knocking him unconcious. Tatsuya did not want to wait any longer to escape. He knew that this opponent may wake up any moment and may be a greater threat to him in the future. He had to get away while he still can.
With that thought in mind, Tatsuya disppeared into the forest again, running away from the strange, thong wearing attacker...

It's Chibi-Theatre time! ^_^


Once upon a time, chibi-Tagami decided to do something nice for chibi-Izlude, who shall be called Izzy from hence forth.

Chibi-Tagami, in her Strawberry Shortcake outfit, decided to bake Izzy a cake. But not just any cake, a blueberry, raspberry cake with whipped cream and a cherry on top.

After the cake was done, she placed it in a nice, colourful box wrapped with a bow and hopped and skipped her way to Izzy's house (who lived just down the street from her).

Izzy opened the box to his surprise and both of them had cake and lemonade together. The cake was so delicious that it restored some of Izzy's strength and gave him the confidence to go on as chibi-dragoon!

The End.

====

I'm going out to dinner with my cousin, and I don't know when I'll be back. So I decided to use my r-vote before the end of this round.

My r-vote to Izlude.
