NOTE: From this point onward, things are
going to get more serious, as Ayin and Keir get more
desparate. We all had fun in the first few rounds, but now
it's time for us to starting thinking about the battle,
instead of alcohol, hamsters, and parties.
ALSO NOTE:
I have put Rena Lanford into the Justifiable Sins team,
seeeing as she's now married to Dias and all...

Chapter 4: Fury
"It's not working... Why isn't it working?" Ayin
growled through gritted teeth. His eyes were fixed on the
device in his hands, which he had completed just an hour ago.
It was a metallic rod, about a metre and a half long, with
three claws at the end. When activated, it was supposed to
start collecting energy at the end and storing it inside, but
none had been accumulated yet...
Yet, as he watched, a
tiny bead of red light appeared between the claws. It hovered
there for a moment, before disappearing into the rod. Ah,
so it IS working... But why so little energy? Surely the
contestants should be putting out more energy than THAT...
Hearing footsteps, Ayin turned towards the door. Ahh...
Keir's back from checking on the contestants. Maybe he'll have
some answers...
Keir entered the room, his face
white with shock. "My god... Keir... it's so weird..." he
gasped out.
"What is it THIS time, Keir? Don't tell me
that this island is blowing up as well?" Ayin asked
impatiently...
"No, it's not that... although, in a
way, I'd prefer that. No, this is... just odd... They... they
had a party..."
"A party!?"
"And a wedding..."
"What!?" Ayin was furious. "Were any of them actually
FIGHTING?"
"There were a few little scraps, but for
the most part, they were getting along... Ayin, I know we need
them to fight for that thing to work, but how are we supposed
to..."
WHAM!
"My, this thing makes a
pretty good weapon..." Ayin commented as Keir flew back into
the stone wall. As he got to his feet, he found the clawed end
of Ayin's device pointed at him.
"Now, Keir, listen to
me very carefully. We NEED them to fight. If they don't fight,
we won't be able to create the portal. So, tomorrow, you are
going to start inhabiting some of their bodies, and breed some
conflict. I don't need to tell you what will happen if the
High Council gets suspicious of our shells' absence..." As if
to punctuate his words, the rod began to build up a great deal
of energy, as the party upstairs was interupted by the Time
Devourer.
Keir gulped. "Yeah, Ayin, whatever you
say..."

Round 4: You are on a very
large island, containing a piece of the Veldt from Final
Fantasy VI. All sorts of creatures roam here, from harmless
rabbits to great Pearl Dragons. There is little cover, as only
a few scattered trees dot the vast grasslands. And to make
matters worse, Keir will be inhabiting a few of you
occasionally, making you do things that you don't necessarily
want to. You'll be here until 1:59 AM MDT on Thursday.
Yes, that's a bit later than usual time, but it's because I
have to work until midnight.
Special Rule for Round
4: There is no place to hide on the Veldt. Everything you
do can be seen by everyone for miles all around. Every attack,
every spell, everything. Thus, there will be NO PRIVATE
VOTING this round. A vote MUST be in the thread for it to
count.

Special
Resource: I've put together a list of things that one
should have gleaned from my stories from now...
- Ayin
and Keir are two young males from a near-future Earth. They
were cast out of their reality when Keir interfered with a
teleportation device that Ayin had built, in a misguided
attempt to save his brother. They can now travel between
realities at will, except for their own reality. They can
possess people's bodies and control them, but have no physical
form of their own; they are ghosts of reality.
- Ayin
is currently possessing a woman named Mian, and Keir a man
named Volnes. Both were originally Thetas in the society of
the Eternals, but Ayin and Keir managed to get them both
promoted to Sigma, so they could access the Memory Pools. They
believe that they can use the Pools to circumvent the barrier
around their reality, and return home. The High Council of the
Eternals know about Ayin and Keir, but are not interfering,
since they believe that the two are too powerful, even for
them.
- The Plane of Torment lies at the center of the
Memory Pools, and is their source of power. Various islands
rotate around an orb that shines with the daylight of a
million realities. The islands are created when an area in a
reality recieves an unusually large spike of energy, which
causes the Pools to flux, creating a copy of that particular
area inside the Plane. Most of the time, the islands are
sucked into the energy barrier at the edge of the plane, but a
few manage to stay near the centre.
