This RP series holds some significance beyond merely the resurrection aspect of it, although that is meaningful as well. Considering the level of RP we both subscribed to at the time, John did an excellent job as Dar, the resurrection itself was well thought out and creative. The fight was nicely done for an early FF battle. There weren't that many rules set at the time, and personally it was my first real FF fight. (I played Tenkou for those of you who don't know) One last thing, at the end you see a part of the characters that you normally wouldn't, and so I like this RP for that reason as well. Nichollette makes a cameo appearance too, though fleeting. Anyways enough commentary. Read up.

DarianNightshade: ::He slowly made his way to the alter, His wife's body on it, covered in white silks. He made a slow sweep of his hand over the body, and turned to the attending people::

Akari Chapelo: ::Sits down on the floor by Shadow's feet::

Tiph Nightshade: ::the inert, lifeless form of the fallen SOLDIER lies in the center of the alter, looking placid in death, a gaping hole in the left side of her chest, her armored suit mangled in the afore-mentioned place::

DarianNightshade: I will need silence.... if my concentration is broken even in the slightest... ::He stopped... you all knew what he meant I think...::

ShadowBlade54644: ::sits down next to Akari, and he does it quiet so he don't piss off Darian::

DarianNightshade: ((Action's are ok... soft whispers cool, but no noise please... well excessive noise))

Avrammarva: ::He watches Darian expectantly, though quietly. He had never met the man before, but something about him made the Captain, well... Ill at ease::

M Selvikin: ::is very quiet in his corner::

ShadowBlade54644: ::still bein' quiet::

Akari Chapelo: ::Noisily grabs some popcorn from Shadow and shoves it in her mouth, munching on it::

Avrammarva: ::He stands near the door way, ready to dart out if his XO should take this most inopportune time to link-in::

Akari Chapelo: ::Whispers:: oops..

DauthiSeraphim: ::sits eyes glued to tiph ..shot glass ready::

DarianNightshade: Get comfortable I suggest...

Akari Chapelo: Never tell me that

Tiph Nightshade: ::is.... dead, not comfortable::

ShadowBlade54644: ::knows that::

Akari Chapelo: ::Sneezes::

ShadowBlade54644: ::evidently no longer dead, quite proud of that::

Akari Chapelo: A-chooo!

Akari Chapelo: Hmmm...

Akari Chapelo: ::Decides to get.."comfortable"::

Avrammarva: ::He leans back against the wall by the door, not leaving his spot near the door. He is obviously unwilling to allow ships business to interfere with the resurrection of his friend::

Akari Chapelo: ::Sprawls out on the floor::

DarianNightshade: Akari..... ::His tone was deadly... not today...:: My dear... don't make me ask you to leave

Akari Chapelo: Okie...::She whispered slowly...::

DauthiSeraphim: ....

Akari Chapelo: ::Sits up straight and looks over at Tiph...::

DarianNightshade: Now... I need to get a move on... so silence if you please...

Avrammarva: ::Folding his arms, perhaps too much a Captain this night, he continues to watch the room with a quiet, level gaze::

DarianNightshade: ::He cast back his hood, his hair falling neatly about his shoulders. His face was covered in black writing... Hebrew::

M Selvikin: ::looks over to Tiph, then to Darian, then back and forth::

ShadowBlade54644: ::as he usually does, he leans up against the wall and as he does a little tremmor washes over him::

ShadowBlade54644: ::his face says "damn thats a cold wall"::

ShadowBlade54644: ::his eyes shift to Darrian... he has never seen the man more determined in all the time he's known him::

DarianNightshade: ::He raised his hands slowly, after picking up a long black flaming object, and he walked to her corpse::

DarianNightshade: ::He began to light the candles circling her body, alternating black and white... life and death... if we messed up, death it was...::

M Selvikin: ::looks at the candles curiously, then to the both of them::

DarianNightshade: ::as soon as he lit the thirteenth candle, one for each plane of hell... the stich extinguished and then shattered all upon its own accord::

DarianNightshade: (Yes there are thirteen planes in hell, the nine and a few more that are in books)

DarianNightshade: ((Oh... side note, anyone makes a move to help with the resurrection, and its failed, it MUST be done by one person))

DarianNightshade: ((I read a lot... Everything must be accomplished alone))

Tiph Nightshade: ::the soft, and somewhat eerie candlelight reflected off the metallic components of her suit, creating a soft luminence in the darkness::

DarianNightshade: ::He raised his hands to the sky, the sleeves ruffling softly about his arms as he began to chant in latin...:: Te de Advocate Diabloe

Avrammarva: ::Still leaning against the wall, arms folded across his chest, he crosses his left leg over his right. The room seemed to pulse to him, with the tempo of the flickering flames::

DarianNightshade: ab Origano, to han plagaed mian khin

DarianNightshade: ((From the origin, thou hast plagued my kind...))

DarianNightshade: ((The first line.... To the Advocate of the Devil))

DarianNightshade: ::His sleeves stirred in a breeze... that wasn't there a few moments ago, the candles flickering, casting sinister shadows upon the invoker::

DarianNightshade: ::His hands, palms facing out over her body... the body of his love, began to crackle with a black light, as his eyes glowed also black.... his shades were not on this time::

DarianNightshade: (For once...)

Akari Chapelo: ::She leans up against Shadow, watching Darrian with the procedure::

DarianNightshade: ::Over her corpse opened a portal, crackling with electricity, and the screams of the souls of the damned, tore at even Darrian's black heart, they were so tormented. Slowly a shadow of Tiph... a shade if you will, was torn from the gap::

Akari Chapelo: ::Turns around and lightly kisses Shadow on the cheek::

ShadowBlade54644: ::leans over and gives Akari a kiss on the cheek::

ShadowBlade54644: ::disappears::

TenkouHellDemon has entered the room.

Akari Chapelo: ::Whispers:: OMFG...

DarianNightshade: ::Her soul was slowly pulled to her body, as Darrian's hands lowered slowly, as if shoving it, or directing it down::

TenkouHellDemon: ::the demon flew to the ground, the gusts created by his massive wings enough to knock a person easily over, if they didn't have some way of anchoring themselves to the ground. His wings beat quickly, and he hovered there for a long moment, staring into the being who was presently attempting to steal a damned soul from hell::

DarianNightshade: :;He flew into the wall, the candles extinguished, just as Tiph's soul entered her body::

Avrammarva: ::He watches the newcomer with obviously well earned trepidation... This might be a problem...::

DarianNightshade: ohh....::He groaned softly::

DarianNightshade: ::and shook his head slowly, regaining his feet, and looking the newcomer over::

Tiph Nightshade: ::she choked slightly, then fell seemingly lifeless again::

TenkouHellDemon: ::We regarded him with buldging orange eyes, they were bloodshot and intense, cruel... they warned of the danger of picking a fight with this one, and that was to say naught of the rest of his appearance, which was equally as frightening, if not moreso::

DarianNightshade: ::His eyes widened at the sound of Tiph, and he watched her fall back into death:: NO!!!!!!

M Selvikin: ::steps forward slightly, saying that he cannot move backward from a corner, and places a hand on the hilt of his blade, his blue rimmed eyes staring with both fright and courage::

DarianNightshade: ::He turned slowly:: I got him.... ::and looked back to the demon.... we could show him...::

TenkouHellDemon: ::those malicious claws, long yellowed fangs, and spiked tail were his weapons of choice, and they more than served their purpose... yes, we were most definately a formiddable foe; and the fight had already been picked, unfortunately for this ill-fated undead. His voice rose, venomous and full of hate:: Someone wishes to die, I see ... Join her in death? Not very wise...

Akari Chapelo: ::She leaned up against the wall...arching a thin brow at Tenkou, [Obviously a psychotic creature of hell....] Curiosity filling her mind, she crossed her arms over her chest, watching with interest....[What would happen...next?]::

M Selvikin: ::jumps to the rafters swiftly and steps quietly towards the altar and the demon::

Avrammarva: ::He continues to recline against the wall, scared shitless. There was little he could do in this matter, however... As effective as his PPG was against living folk, the undead were... Well, suffice it to say there was really nothing he could do::

DarianNightshade: Selvikin... step BACK

DarianNightshade: Or it will fail!

M Selvikin: ::jumps back to the corner, falling on his butt::

DarianNightshade: ::He clenched his fists slowly, and stood his ground:: Think I might die...? Only if you are good enough to take my life...and I doubt you are

TenkouHellDemon: ::all eleven feet of his bulk were then placed heavily onto the ground, his form grossly muscled, he rippled with sheer power, might, and under that blackened skin they contorted, flexed....he clenched a viciously clawed fist and took one step forward::

TenkouHellDemon: ::he roughly folded his crimson wings and glared evilly into the doomed undead, so haughtily standing before him::

Tiph Nightshade: ((.... don't let him eat me ))

DarianNightshade: ::He snarled, then sneered slightly, his fangs glinting dully in the light of the full moon, his nails slightly biting into his palms, drawing a slight trickle of his blood, to spatter the floor:: Good boy... come here and let me teach you a lesson...

DarianNightshade: ((LOFL... he won't get past me))

TenkouHellDemon: ::one step and he was beside this Darian... a foolish one, and soon to be a not merely undead, but dead one as well... out we lashed with a hand, eight inch claws swiping at his shoulder::

DarianNightshade: ::He ducked nimbly under this foul beasts... paw... hehe, nothing more than an animal to us... He lashed out with a fast round house to the base of the creatures jaw, actually having to do the splits vertically, to accomplish the strike, then flipping agily away::

TenkouHellDemon: ::the red boils that covered him seemed to pulse, seethe, as if in possession of separate lives... he stood, unmoving as the strike to his jaw served merely to cause a demonic laugh to rise from his throat:: Was that it?

DarianNightshade: Not by half fool... :;He spat into the demon's eyes::

TenkouHellDemon: ::he laughed again, and with another step, was beside him once more, this time, we chose to lash our spiked tail directly into his midsection as we spun::

DarianNightshade: ::He wasnt expecting the tail, and was thrown by the force a few feet back, landing on his feet by instinct, black blood trickling down his abdomen:: ...

TenkouHellDemon: ::he smiled, and it was sinister and sickly, saliva dripped down his fangs... we wondered how he tasted, well, we would soon see::

DarianNightshade: ::He charged at the demon, and ran past him. He ran UP the wall, and flipped off it, his lithe body accomplishing the feat easily, even wounded as he was. He came down with an earth shattering over head right to the top of the demons head::

Akari Chapelo: Ack! It's gunna eat you!

DarianNightshade: Not a chance in hell Akari... ::He smiled grimly at the bitter irony...::

TenkouHellDemon: ::the demons eyes narrowed... we actually felt that blow... he groaned very softly, that served to anger him, and, as one clawed hand was pressed to his head, again he spun, lashing out with that spiked tail again, at Darian's legs::

Akari Chapelo: ::She clears her throat and slowly rises. Questioning the demon with a taunting smile...[distracting much? Hope so...] She turned her head to either side, creating a rather sickening *CRACK*...::

DarianNightshade: ::He leapt slightly up, his knees up to his chest over the blow, and his head buried in that large face of the demon, in a wickedly accurate head butt::

TenkouHellDemon: ::he rocked back slightly, moving his hands to take Darian's head in his claws, gripping him tightly, but not quite tight enough to cause any brain matter to spill...::

Tiph Nightshade: ((>< if that demon eats him I swear Ima wake up and ... uh... lemme think a minute....))

DarianNightshade: ((hehe Don't worry baby...))

Tiph Nightshade: ((::sniffles:: ))

DarianNightshade: ::He lashed out, in rage and fear, with a swift, and powerful kick to the crotch of the demon.... We hoped he had something there to break...::

TenkouHellDemon: ::the demon growled, his roar echoing across the expanse... cheap shots now? his eyes stared daggers into Darian, and he took flight, hovering above him a moment, then swiftly soaring earthward, to sink his fangs deeply into his shoulder::

DarianNightshade: ::He fell under the fangs, and weight of the demon, collapsing to the ground::

DarianNightshade: Oooooffff

Akari Chapelo: Gee...I'd like to help...

Akari Chapelo: I think this is going to come down to Darrian having to die and Tiph living...perhaps they'll trade souls? One for the other? Predictible..

TenkouHellDemon: ::squish... we were enjoying this.. our weight pressing down on him, serving to crush the "unlife" slowly out of him, as those fangs tightened::

DarianNightshade: ::He growled slightly, in pain, as he wrenched one fang clear out of the demon's mouth, snarling, and sinking his relatively now, small fangs into the demon's eye::

Tiph Nightshade: ::she stirred her left hand ever so slightly, almost unnoticably::

TenkouHellDemon: ::the demon winced, and taking ahold of Darian, threw him clear across the room, and into the opposite wall::

DarianNightshade: ::He blew through the wall with a thunderous crash, scattering black marble about the area. He laid in a half daze, as blood slowly pooled about his form::

M Selvikin: ::notices that it was the wall right next to him and gets shatters of black marble all over him, still fallen on his butt::
