Mintaka
Goddess of Hamsters

Beware the idle hands of a marion....

VP SPOILERS!!!!!!!!! XDDDD I have to. *adds darkened text on spoilered areas for insurance* ^^;
=======
A lot had happened since she had suddenly found herself in a jungle. She had gone from a Goddess picking up the pieces and moving on to a semi-mortal goddess learning what it was like to be human and contemplating life, and learning the powers of humans - the ability to rise as one against a crisis. There were some facinating incidents going on, and she really hated the fact that everyone would soon be locked in the greatest battle of bloodshed.

The potential for accidental death was climbing at an alarming rate, deaths that weren't deserved. Deaths that shouldn't happen. She had seen too many humans whose lives were cut short. Most of her Einherjar were souls whose lives were intrrupted by the chaos of wars,personal intrigues, and other things much undeserved. Perhaps they themselves had shaped some, but some were wrongly drawn into things. She didn't relish the thought of fighting any of the people here as things progressed, nor did she really desire being an "Eternal" .... whatever that meant - though it would be a welcome change in the chaos of her life.

It was then she witnessed the sacrifice from high above, and a tear slipped form her eye. This wasn't right. Humans were no puppets of other powers.

Suddenly she felt cold all over. Her eyes were staring out as she felt the sensation.

~*~

What the- I can't move!

"Naturally, you can't, Lenneth," a smooth voice said.

Who are-

"The name, dear Lenneth, is Keir. You're certainly not doing what you came for here very well, so I figured I'd just.... help things along."

What?!

"Oh, just borrow your body for awhile to get this going better. Besides, exercise is good for you, Lenneth.
Its not the first time you've been through this though, is it?"

Lenneth cringed mentally. She didn't like this, not one bit.

"Oh, calm down, I'll eventually leave... after I'm through with this. Besides, I'm proving a point."

Point?

"That I'm powerful enough to even control a Goddess. Heh. Even a Goddess can become a marionette. Now, lets go find some targets, shall we?"

No!!

The fights were viscious, and all Lenneth could do was watch in horror as it happened.

-------
Summary: Keir has possessed Lenneth, a Goddess.

Votes: Minsc, Ryudo, and Tseng <--almost 100% random because she's just about dead...

Krizak, you can kill me later....

Edit: I TOLD You!!!!!!!!

Oh, and Sorry Slipstream... ^^;;; I'm following some higher order.... about 4 hrs. late...

Edit 2: Partly... some of them WERE refs to CC peeps....

Edit3: BTW, I was gonna do fight scenes... but I am now FAR to tired to try... I'm gonna have to head to bed shortly.

Botanicals. Close. ^_^ Oh, and sorry.

Actually, I am a guy and have used Herbal Essences before. Nothing happened. No girls, no guys, nothing. Then again, that DOES tend to be the way my love life goes...

Professional Goober

"Vante, don't just float there, sit down and stay awhile. You know how much I enjoy these chats of ours..."

The Omega gave a knowing nod, and began to come to earth.

"I've been watching you, to make sure you weren't fooled like the others. Something's wrong, I need to figure it out before we lose all power."

"Vante? Afraid of something that isn't me? Well, this must be big, do tell."

"I don't know if I can or not, they...they probably know I'm here. I've said too much already. Magus, just...just be careful, alright?"

"Concern for little old me? Frankly Vante, I didn't think you had it in you. Just being the puppet you are." Magus gave a slight smile. He liked insulting Vante. In a way, he enjoyed being insulted by him as well.

"A puppet, eh? Well, I doubt a simple puppet could control the vast reaches of The Void. And I mean, control, not whatever it was you were doing."

"Ah, simple insults from a simple lackey. Nothing but the fall guy, the manifestation of The Creator's sick pleasures, and..." He stopped mid sentence. "I...I shouldn't talk like that anymore."

"So, you know too. I figured you would, She thought you had great potential, if only you could be completed."

"Completed? Now you're beginning to make it sound like people are built, like machines."

"Aren't they? Aren't we all? We all start out a certain way, but that's just a simple design. It's the experiences we have that shape us, mold us into what we are. We gain skills, attain perspective bit by bit, until we're complete. When we're finally complete, we can achieve The Task."

"So, I was right all along, The Task..."

"Yes, you're close. She almost had you perfected when it happened. She almost had a lot of things done when it happened..."

"What are you talking about?"

"Don't you feel it? The whole Multiverse is in danger! We're becoming less able to fix its problems every cycle, and without Her...I feel like She abandoned us when She was most needed..."

"Don't you dare spoil Her name like that! She was The Creator damnit! She was The Great Mother...my...my Mother!"

"You forget Magus...She was my Mother too..."

The sullen Omega turned and vanished from this place. Magus was alone and cold. He decided to look for Alfador.

Vampire with a soul

Requiem Eterna...

Lucia, after seeing this noble sacrifice, was moved to tears. She would see to it that his final sacrifice was not in vain. Being a goddess, she had some pull in the afterlife, and would make sure Vante did not claim the soul of this noble warrior. But first things first.

First, she sent forth her power to purify the body, and make very sure Viante wouldn't find his way into it again. The now sanctified body actually looked more sacred than it had in life, as if Izlude had been a Holy Knight rather than a Dragoon.

She was a bit confused on how exactly to bury him, however. Throwing him off the edge of the island just didn't seem proper. Yet burying him on the Veldt itself, which would soon dissapear, didn't seem right either. She asked Ronfar, who'd been closer to him then she had been, what he though should be done.

Ronfar thought about it. "We're adrift in a void. So it's kinda like dying on a ship, I guess. It's more appropriate to toss his body to the void."

Then, Lucia had something else to do, so she entered the spirit realm, where Vante was still gloating over the soul he'd just acquired. Of course, in the spirit realm, she didn't have to worry about unleashing her full power.

"Vante! You will release the soul of that man, now!"

Vante turned, and laughed at the goddess.

"Mwahahaha! I can't believe you were fool enough to follow me into my own realm. Ha! This is too good to be true. Death of all Creation...STRIKE!"

Of course, as Vante turned to battle Lucia, Izlude's soul escaped his notice. Meanwhile, Lucia dodged Vante's strike, and turned to the released soul. She sent forth her power, and boosted it up towards the light. It was beyond Vante's reach. Now, Lucia had to get out of here.

"Althena's light, shine forth!"

Vante laughed as the energy field closed around him. Then, he abruptly realized he'd made a huge mistake. The power of creation...the reason it had seemed so weak before is that Lucia always had to hold back while using it. So had Althena before her, except for the time when she banished Zophar on the Blue Star.

Lucia's energy snapped around Vante, and sent him hurtling straight to the hell he came from. Lucia then went to escape.

"Not so fast, little goddess. You are indeed stronger here, but did you think you could get away from me in my own realm? Death of Eternity! Slash!"

A particularly evil looking sword slashed Lucia, and she had a big gash across her stomach. But she maintained enough focus to leave the spirit realm.

Vante was pissed.

"I shall surely take revenge on you for this crime, Princess of the Blue Star! Nobody does this to me and gets away with it!"

And Vante waited, to plot his revenge. He had an idea. Zophar also had a score to settle Lucia. There was no way she'd be able to take both of them at the same time...

Sorry I've been gone. I don't even remember if I've done my voting yet. Oh well. I don't really care, surprisingly.

I was chatting on the phone with a girl I like for hours.

It was an interesting talk.

It's times like this I wish there was still a General Chat.

Sigh...

Hey Izlude, that was a really noble sacrifice on your part. Way to write, man!

Should I do something about Vincent? Aww, I don't even care. I wish I could sleep...

Edit: Minty, those 8 you mentioned sounded like the semi-finalists of the last tourny to me...
