Ravel: *smirks* I know but I will keep him away.
*is silent sitting by tree in thought*
Ravel: I'll probably be around you guys more with Zaf and I..
To ploion mou to meteorizomenon esti pleres encheleon...
*sighs and tries to find the others*
Oh please don't go into detail. *laughs* I remember when you and I dated...
And then Vex, at some point...
Hmm.
Those were the days
Fabi walks back to her room, but when she opens the door, there's another hallway, this one full of mirrors. Sandra, Sebastian and Paul come up behind her.
Paul: Whoa.
Sandra: You got a hallway out of here, already. Wow.
Voice: You three as well, may leave. There are worse things ahead than simple interrogation.
Fabi: Ooookayyy...
[They start off down the corridor full of mirrors]
Sandra: Well, at least we'll be able to see if anyone sneaks up on us.
Sebastian: [Stops and looks back] Not necessarily...
#ChaseForBook9
...what?
*rolls over to the lab door and knocks* adra? you in there?
(( WBD, MSD ))
Ravel: Yes those were the days indeed Adra. At leaat we're able to hold a conversation
Hello, Fabi-
*calls* WHO IS IT
...oh my...I'm lost...
Well, that's because our relationship ended on a good note, I suppose.
And you know
We have been friends ever since
((Gotta just roll with it sometimes, Amethyst :3))
Ravel: I know. It's good to know i have friends ourside of Ireland despite the Surpreme Council trying to isolate us
it's Snow, adra!
Yuuuup
COME IN SNOWSEF
*opens the door and rolls herself in, muttering* why do you insist on calling me Snowsef? *see's Ravel* oh, ah, hi.
Ravel: Snow...? Oh wait I remember her.
Ravel: Hello Snow
sorry if i'm interrupting anything, but i was just wondering if you could check out my legs for me... i dont seem to be able to walk very well...
*outside, mindlessly walking and looking around* hm...
Hello Ame you look confused
Yeah go ahead, Snow sit down love
Amethyst... You're welcome to come as well
((Hi Adra- Hello Snow, Zaf, Ame. :-)
Fabi: [Turns to face an onslaught of attackers, paling as she realizes that each one of them looks like her]
Sandra: What are they, reflections...?
[Paul jumps and looks around, but apparently it's legal to ask questions now]
Sebastian: No... Everyone has only one reflection, and they're so...obvious.
Sandra: So the mirrors are just here for effect?
Sebastian: Looks like it.
Fabi: [Stares at the other Fabi's in horror. They're all dressed in purple t-shirts and carrying swords. They're all ages, some of them younger than anyone using a kitchen knife should be, much less a sword. They're faces twist in unison, with expressions of hurt and betrayal]
Sebastian: Abby? Abby, are you okay?
Fabi: [Staggers backwards, looking like she might cry]
#ChaseForBook9
*looks at adra* ii am sitting down... in a wheel-chair
*sees Zaf* oh hi! *looks around nervously*
Ravel: *summons flame and smirks estingishing it* Still a healer?
You okay Ame? Don't worry people are nice here
No...I know the people here are nice...its something else...
19696 words.
Heh.
*isn't really here*
#ChaseForBookNine
Oh heh.
Okay.
Can you feel your lower spine?
Whats up then?
((Okay STARALAR ))
yep.
hm... I'm not sure... there's something...I can't... I don't know...I think I'm missing something...
Okay small steps what are you trying to figure out about who?
Erm... Okay..
((Mind explaining again?!))
I...I'm not sure...I can't remember...maybe its nothing important...
((I DONT KNOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
make something up, use you're noggin... i cant think of anything...
Hmm mind tricks?
Ravel: *watches Adra for a few before going back by Zaf*
(( maybe a mental block..? idk;;;sorryyyyyyyyyy... i'm racking my brain))
*a note is found under Alexis' door.
It reads:
Your boyfriend is great fun.
Thanks for the loan.
Rigor *
((It's okay, I've got this))
*taps her leg* hmm...
Aha! *digs around in her bag for a injection and gives it to her* It heals simple paralysis
(( maybe a nerve was damaged in the cave in and no one's noticed?))
hm... oh yea! *rushes away*
(( THANKYOOUUUUUUUUU ))
ah, okay... how long does it take to work?
Alexis: Who the hell is Rigor...*grabs phone and calls Em*
((I thought we killed this bitch Em?!?))
Ahem
Twenty minutes. It refreshes your stem cells so they differentiate into new nerve cells
Voila
(she was too much fun to just let go :(. Please forgive me lol trust me (i think))
thanks. i'd hug you if i could.
Oh my gosh.
There's BANG BANG BANGness. RIGHT outside my window. O_O
BONFIRE NIGHT IS ON THE 5TH OF NOVEMBER, PEOPLE! *shakes head*
Why do we always hear fireworks in the week beforehand? Do people not own calendars?
#ChaseForBookNine
Fabi: Get out of here. They have every reason to be mad at me, but not you. You've done nothing.
Paul: [Needs no more encouragement] [Runs]
[Sebastian and Sandra exchange glances]
Sebastian: Um, no thanks.
Sandra: Dude, you gave us our way out of here. We're not going to leave you in the trash.
[They each grab an arm and drag Fabi away]
[The other Fabi's follow, walking purposefully, but not needing to hurry]
Paul: [Runs back to the others] It's a dead end!
Sandra: Then we'll make our stand here. [Pulls out a long, wicked-looking knife] Abby, get back. [Gestures in the direction of the dead end] Maybe if they don't see you, they'll go away.
Fabi: [Melts her sword into two and offers Paul and Sebastian weapons]
Paul: [Accepts gratefully]
Sebastian: [Smiles, and waves the sword away] Thanks, but I think I have this one. [Pushes Fabi away by the shoulder] Go!
Fabi: [Wordlessly does as she's told]
#ChaseForBook9
*glares out of window* I'M MEANT TO BE GOING TO SLEEP DAMMIT.
#ChaseForBookNine
((I feel the feeling Star :3))
Of course, Snow
Ravel: Odd...*takes Zafira's hand*
@Lantern: Your plot is really interesting. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
@Adra: :)
#ChaseForBookNine
*Em answers the phone as she quietly comes out of the baby's room*
Em: Hey Lexi!
(( awww *huggles star* i hate that!!))

((I KNOW FABI IS A WRITING GODDESS))
((Bye Amethyst...! Btw))
Bye Snow.
*looks up a few more symbols* Hmm..
WALIYHA AND ZAYN BRB CRYING ➡️
Alexis; Hi Em who would Riqor be? Apparently they have Lorcan and I'm going to get him baxk
Em: Wait did you say Rigor??!!! Lexi don't you dare go there on your own. Don't you dare!!!!
*sighs and tries to find something to do* *whistles*
Alexis: Watch me. Mom is with Ravel I'm going to get him back you wanna come fine but I need him back
Em: Lexi, Rigor is Deacon's daughter.
You need people to go with you. You need back up on this. Please Lexi, Lorcan wouldn't want you to just walk into danger.
Alexis: Well you can come. Nobody in my family cares enough to go
((Thanks Star :-)
((Whoa. Thanks Adra.))
The not-Fabi's: [Advance on the three]
NotFabiWithTheHat: Hello. [Smiles] We're looking for me. Have you seen her?
Sandra: Yeah, [points at NotFabiHat] Right there.
NotFabiHat: Don't play games with me. Where is she?
Paul: [Gulps and tried to one of the NotFabi's]
[His sword is absorbed into her being]
Paul: [Screams]
#ChaseForBook9
(( zafle-dafle, you could always ask snow to go with alexis... ))
((In sorry I have to go))
((I knows Alexis is in a panic state atm))
(( fabi, your plot is amazing. you writing genius!))
Em: Tell Adra, she's dealt with Rigor before and we need to find Drew.
I am going to be there for you Lexi but we can't do it alone.
(( se ya adraa))
Alexis: Adra is busy! Look I'll ask Snow ok? My mother shouldn't go not in her condition
*rolls around, feeling useless, waiting for the injection to kick in*
*her legs start to tingle and she jumps up, finally able to stand for more than five minutes*
WHOO!!
*runs around bloland, passing everyone who is currently on*
*blogland
Ravel: Snow...hi
*stops in front of ravel and zaf, grinning wildly* hi!! i can walk again! *jogs on*
Em: Okay, okay. I'm coming over now.
*Em hangs up*
*Rigor walks into a dark room where there is just a light shining onto Lorcan. He is tied to a chair and gagged.
She grabs his hair and lifts his head back as he winces and takes deep breaths*
Rigor: Awww did baby have a rough night?? Well you ain't seen nothing yet!
*She walks over to a table in the shadows with different tools and instruments laid out. She picks up a steel spike and walks pack over to Lorcan.
She breathes fire onto the tip of it as it starts to glow red and heat up. Lorcan struggles and whimpers. She then walks over and slices through his t-shirt, ripping it to shreds. She then gets the spike and touches it against one of Lorcan's silver wounds.
She smirks as Lorcan screams*
((Fwiw: Adra's legs are broken anyway))
Alexis: *paces already in her combat clothes with knives in her belt* C'mon....*is anxious*
Ravel: I see.
Congrats!
(( i <3 this pic XD))
((Bleh brb))
(( LOL!!! my friend was trying to work out how to change her blogger name and was just like "did you scroll down and press save profile?" and she said " oh..."
WTF??))
(( why is everyone quiet))
*creeps in and sits on Snow's head**
Shhhhh.
#ChaseForBook9
*looks at trip* excuse me, are you alright up there? *pokes*
*Rigor waits until the spike cools down before placing it against another silver wound. Lorcan screams again.*
Rigor: I always thought that silver kills your kind. My dad hated anything silver. You're obviously one of a kind. And handsome too!
*Rigor kisses his gag as she starts to scratch his face. Her claws digging into his face. He screams again*
Rigor: You're so cute when you scream into your gag!
*Em runs up to Alexis*
Em: Lexi?? How do you know she has Lorcan?
I wouldn't mind a glass of water, if it's no trouble?
#ChaseForBook9
sure.
*teleports to the midle of the ocean* this enough water for you?
I meant tap water... I can't drink this, and my shoes are wet...
#ChaseForBook9
*shakes trip of*

(Where is Zaf gone???!!!!!!!! Oh my fuck....)

#ChaseForBook9

STORMY!! *pokes*

It's an important issue that needed addressing.
#ChaseForBook9
Stormageddon: supreme leader and evil dark lord... (doctor who quote)
that is behind me, after the incerdent
Aexis: the note ((sorry i did say brb))
i am now a pro explorer
(( WB zaf!))
*sits on trips head* REVENGE!!
*Em runs up to the bar, out of breath*
Em: Trip... we've got a problem.
*head burns as hot as the sun* Aha!
#ChaseForBook9
*stares*
Is that problem to do with Lorcan?
#ChaseForBook9
*sits there calmly* *shrugs* *gets down*
*looks at em* trouble? can help?
*stares at clock wierdly*
(Sorry Zaf. I'm back! lol)
Em: Yes, Lexi got a note saying that he was taken.
He was taken by Rigor, Trip.
She wants to go and find him and I said I would go too but we need someone who has battled her before. I'm worried that she is just gonna run in and get herself killed.
wheres my drink?
*looks worried* Em... i'm coming too. okay? i'm not letting my friends get hurt without me around
I'm in. Any chance to do anything bad to Deacon and his descendants I'm more than up for.
#ChaseForBook9
Alexis: I won't get killed Em! *is shaking*
so the bars closing.....right
*grins* wait, deacons daughter? deacon, as in the deacon i hugged??
You hugged Deacon?
Man, that's pretty hardcore.
#ChaseForBook9
he was threatening my friends so i hugged him... *shrugs* it seemed logical at the time
im just going to leave.
*takes carrot off bench and walks to door*
nice meeting you guys.
*walks through door and and closes. walking into the unknown*
(( WBD, MSD ))
Em: As in the evil bastard that shadow poisoned me.
*hugs Lexi tightly*
Em: I know you love him sweetheart and that's what love does to you. Makes you run into situations without thinking. Now you have people around you who can help and get him out of the situation safely. Then no-one gets killed.
Now have you any idea on how to find him??
*Lorcan tries to plead through his gag but Rigor just slaps him across the face*
Rigor: Don't beg. It's pathetic.
*She walks over to the table of tools again and picks up a small bone saw. She walks back over and kneels in front of his bound left hand. She starts to hum and she separates his fingers before sawing into his ring finger.
Lorcan screams again*
I have a crystal ball, I could scry for him?
#ChaseForBook9
Alexis: *nods* I never broke the link and he hasn't...I can see a dark room if I focus and its...she's torturing him. He's gagged.
*stays back, not sure what to say*
Em: Lexi, try not to look into your link too much. It could get upsetting sweetie.
We might need to use your crystal Trip. She can only see a room.
*Lorcan is now crying, the blood pouring from where his finger used to be. Rigor licks the wound, her salvia burning Lorcan's skin. She smiles as she licks her lips.*
Rigor: You taste so good. That silver adds a nice bit of spice into it.
*Rigor walks back over to the table to put the saw back before wheeling over something else. Lorcan really struggles and tries to pull at the wire now cutting into his wrists and ankles.
Rigor starts to attach the crocodile clips to the skin on his chest as she charges up electricity from an old defibrillator*
if you can work out a rough location, and if i've been near there, i can teleport us all there...
*hurries upstairs and returns with the crystal ball* One moment. *places it on the table, moving his hands around it, it is clouded with mist.
#ChaseForBook9
*the mist gets thinner and thinner, until a clear image of lorcan and Rigor is displayed inside*
Ugh.
#ChaseForBook9
Em: That could work Snow but if she's anything like her father, she would know every nook and cranny of everywhere.
*Rigor pushes Lorcan back up from the ground onto all fours of the chair. The impact of the charge sent him flying backwards and he walloped his head hard off the floor.
As she stand him back up, the blood starts to pour and settles onto his face*
Rigor: God dammit. Head injuries were meant to come later on. Oh well... I guess it will do.
*turns away from the ball* oh god...
Alexis: Look I really really want him back this isn't helping...*is angered* Why can I never have fucking peace?! *kicks tree* Let me know when we're going I need to beat up a tree
Snow, as you can see us, it, can you take us there?
#ChaseForBook9
*murmurs* None of us shall ever have peace...
#ChaseForBook9
i- no... i need an out-door area, somewhere open with a view so i know where it is...
*Rigor stops and swishes the dragon tail she normally hides. She smiles*
Rigor: I have a feeling that someone is peeping... Could be nothing but lets give them a show.
*She walks back from the table with a wireless nail gun in hand. She leans over slightly before firing 6 times into Lorcan's right kneecap. He screams and cries as he tries to struggle and thrash again*
*goes green* oh god...
Alexis: Figures I'm not the one in political power yet I get hell. Figurative brother gets killed Lorcan nearly dies and now is captive of some bitch my mother has Ravel they got back together....*growla* I haven't met him
Fuck. *pulls two crystals from the base of the ball* everyone gather in a circle. Hurry!
#ChaseForBook9
Eh, he isn't all he's cracked up to be.
#ChaseForBook9
Alexis: *goes and joins circle*
Em: Fucking bitch... she's on full on dragon mode. No prisoners.
Lexi, come on!
*Em stands beside Trip*
*stands with the others*
Alexis: Already am lets go
((Arsenic,
Hemlock
Wolfsbane,
Strychnine,
Cyanide,
Henbane,
Nightshade,
Belladonna.
WHOO POISONS!!))
*Rigor sighs contently as she puts the nail gun down again. She had nailed his other kneecap and put a few in his chest. Making sure there was a nail in each of his silver wounds. She purposely missed his heart*
Rigor: You're a tough cookie, I'll give you that Lorcan. I almost want to keep you for a while but I get bored easily.
*crushes the crystal, they appear behind Rigor, Trip is already moving, drawing his sword he slashes at Rigor* Sneak attack, bitch!
#ChaseForBook9
Alexis: *summons flame sending it at Rigor* Bitch
*doges behind the others and tries to make her way to Lorcan*
*Rigor jumps back, not noticing her cut that much before turning and breathing fire towards Trip and everyone else*
(( g2g, assume snow teleported away! ))
*Em shifts and roars at Rigor. She tackles the Dragkin to the ground before yelping and jumping back. Scratch marks dug deep into her chest*
*Rigor runs and jumps onto Em's back, her claws in Em's back and her tail wrapping around Em's neck*
Bye Snow.*shields self with energy, noticing the lessening pain*
#ChaseForBook9
Alexis: *goes over to Lorcan* Lorcan...*has hand on him* I'll get you home
*leaps onto Rigor's back* The shoe is on the other foot!
#ChaseForBook9
*Rigor hisses as she unwraps her tail and tries to claw at Trip*
*Em falls to her knees, trying to catch her breath again*
*Lorcan whimpers into his gag as he starts to panic at the thought of Alexis being near Rigor*
Alexis: Hush *takes the gag out* Look I'll get you home ok? She's preoccupied *uses bracelet to try to get to the Sanctuary*
*Parries Rigor's attach with the sharp edge of sword, potentially cutting her hand off, follows with a kick at the stomach*
#ChaseForBook9
The NotFabis force Sandra against one of the mirrors with a thud. Her eyes widen as she hears the sound.
"Sebastian!" she calls, but it isn't a cry for help. She taps the mirror behind her, and after a moment, his eyebrows raise on understanding. "Go!" she shouts.
Sebastian shakes his head slowly and presses his palms together. His hands begin to glow.
"Dude!" Paul pales. "You can't just--"
"It won't last for long, but you'll have time to get away. Tell Abby... Tell her I tried."
Paul nods, quickly turning so the tear in his eye doesn't show.
The NotFabis turn their attention away from Sandra and head towards Sebastian, the light from his hands dimming slightly, as if they're absorbing it.
"Please..." he whispers hoarsely. "Go..."
#ChaseForBook9
*Rigor screeches as she holds onto her hand in pain. She tries to breathe fire but instead whips her tail to try and trip up Trip (ba dum chi!).*
*Em leaps onto Rigors tail and bites it cleanly off before swiping at her face, leaving huge and very deep marks*
Lorcan: Lexi... I... *he starts to cry*
Hi Fabi.
#ChaseForBook9
Alexis: Lorcan stop crying we'll be okay! She cant hurt me. She would be stupid to anyway...
Goodbye Rigor! *sword fills with energy, diagonally sweeps down to cut Rigor's head off.*
#ChaseForBook9
((Hello... For once I know exactly what's happening in my subplot! Yay!))
#ChaseForBook9
I dedicate this page to Jmmie Johnson winning the championship! He must win. Oh to the lunatics here I love you all and to Niccolò being alive. Hmm to the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary this month and to Derek and Holly mending their Twitter-marriage and giving me a Twitter-sibling
*Rigor's body falls to the ground with a thud*
*Em shifts back to human form and takes a few breaths*
Em: We should check on Lorcan... damn bitch, just like her father.
She was much more into physical pain than her father, and far more into the physical side of torture.
#ChaseForBook9
Alexis: Em if I can get him to Mom she can give him some healing enough to keep him alive I just couldn't risk her fighting not- never mind
Em: Lexi we probably have to bring him straight to a hospital. Look at all those nails and his finger. As well as all the burns and blood loss.
It's either a hospital or we try and stabilize him now.
*kneels by Rigor's head, closing her eyes, then burning it with energy, putting a lot of effort into not screaming in pain*
#ChaseForBook9
Alexis: hospital. I can teleport just tell me where
Em: Trip! What are you doing??!!
..Personal ritual. *walks over to Lorcan* Come on, everyone gather round, I'll take us home.
#ChaseForBook9
((You do realize that Ari is probably dead, right? Niccolo wouldn't have come back without some sort of price...))
#ChaseForBook9
Lorcan: Lexi... I... *tries to say something but ends up falling unconscious*
*Em places her fingers on his neck*
Em: Trip I'm getting a faint pulse. We need to go now.
(( i know but I kinda meant that in a uh I dunno happy he isnt suffering plus if she is dead I don't know anyway))
Alexis: *is waitig*
Everyone gather. Around.
