Fragility of the Mind

(oh yeah, congrats TK and kiss on Maya right after, wow, how very convincing of his generosity.)

TK was in the bathroom already, looking over at the toilet just in case she needed to go.

"How could I not...Its just like Alevon to do this to us....and his Maya, the bitch...she doesn't care either. Even now all I have been was good to him...to THEM. They do this right after you proposed to me....I can't go back out there...I'm sorry....not right now. In Alevon's mind whatever the fuck he does is right and Maya is a mindless drone who sees him as her angel. Everyone else is wrong to both of them. I can't go out there....not right now..."

"It feels great." Videor replies, smiling at Alevon as he nodded his head at him.

"I understand Tsinanae... Take all the time you need... I'll do my best not to feed their ignorance, as we don't need any more problems tonight... Look, I'll try and cheer you up when we get back to base, alright?"

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 3:29

(apparently TK doesn't know that it's a common thing for couples to kiss en mass in such occasions)

Alevon thinks for a moment
"Tsinanae isn't upset, is she?"

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 3:34

Videor grins a bit, a cold hand print felt on Alevon's shoulder as he could feel a chill run down his spine as Videor whispered only into his ear,"I told you, not to call her Tsinanae... Now, I'm willing to be civil and not resort to fighting, but you will respect her wishes and not call her that ever... Again..."

"The situation is just a bit overwhelming, and so she's thinking it over." Videor replied after he finished with Alevon. To everyone else, it wold have just seemed like a strange pause.

(Truth btw ;D So can't beat me on that one Wink

)

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 3:38

You said no such thing to me. Drop the tough guy act, boy. If she wants to be called TK instead of Tsinanae, I want her to tell me, not someone else.

"I asked if she was upset."
Alevon says, staring at Videor

...this is your and her happy day, and _I_ am doing my best to remain civil, you're not helping with that by getting p*ssy with me over something like that.

"Sorry boy but I do have the right to tell you to say that, as I know what Tsinanae truly wants. As for that tough boy act, I do not need to act. You on the other hand need to, with your toys, fangs, and open ended threats... If we were to compare ourselves, I would be a truck with its natural power. You? You would be a mere toy train..." Videor no longer had his smile, and was now tapping his foot with impatience,"And yes, she is upset, with your pathetic ignorance and hormone driven love. It would normally disgust her, but you can no longer go lower Alevon... As you've hit the bottom a long time ago, and have begun to dig..."

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 3:49

As Videor mentions the toy train and truck thing, Alevon begins to scratch his nails on the glass roughly, his hand slowly heating up.

He suddenly stops and looks at Videor, taking his hand and placing it normally on the table
"You know what though...I don't care what you or TK think or say of me. I'm happy for you both. I'm glad that she's able to find happiness after living that terrible life she did. I tried to make her feel good, and I failed...but that's where you come in, Videor. Make her happy, give her the good life she deserves."

Alevon looks down at his plate and messes with the fork for a moment before skewering a piece of steak and holding it up in the air to examine it.

"...I'm happy for you as well, as I know your life was less than favorable before you met TK. I hope you two are happy as long as you two are together, I hope the marriage goes well, and I wish the best for her baby. Congratulations, Videor, you now have a wonderful bride to be, and will soon have a lovely family."

Alevon smiles a little, eyes blue indicating that he actually felt this way

(that's right, I edited :P)

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 11:57

(And TK is being a hormonal bitch because of her pregnancy so yeah. I wouldn't be surprised if she even flipped out on Ariel! I'm expecting it =P)

Ariel sighed when she heard TK say yes. She figured it was a little too soon for marriage and a child with a man she just met, but she would support her best friend no matter what. And she was happy for her; happy that she found someone who will love her no matter what.

'Don't worry, Princess, we'll get our fairytale ending. I'll make sure of it.'

Ariel said nothing but kept up her smile, ignoring the constant pounding in her head.

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 12:18

Gabrielle's smile widened at TK's proposal. "Contrats..." Only to see her leave before she could make her little speech, she shrugged, leaned back into her chair and took the main course fork in her left hand.

She cut her steak in small pieces, for once enjoying the slightly grilled taste of the meat. She didn't usually eat meat.

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 13:19

Emir came back without Nicole, coughing a little and sitting back down.

"I thought Raine had a speech of some sort, before TK's great news broke in abruptly." He said, scratching his head.

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 13:39

Udo was last inside, finding crawling out of the limo slightly more challenging than climbing into it. Eventually he hobbled and took a seat next to Gabrielle. By the time he'd arrived at the table, she seemed to put her frustration on a back-burner. He offered her a smile; approval of her attempts to remain cheerful.

Udo picked up the menu; after flipping through the menu quickly and stopping only of a moment at the beverages portion to find a proper drink, he sighed before putting the menu back on the table.
I'll be damned, if I drink a Heinekin. American beer it is, then.

"Pale Ale, bitte. And a proper beer glass, as well." He said, as the waiter/waitress arrived to take everyone's orders. After recieving his drink, he brought the bevelled glass up to his nose and took a whiff, taking in the smell of hopps and yeast. The smell confirmed it, American swill. Nonetheless; Udo took a sip before replacing his glass on the table.

Udo had opted to remain silient during most of the conversation thus far, finding the squabbling between Alevon and TK and Videor, less than engaging. Still, when Videor produced the ring and proposed to TK, Udo's attention had been squarely directed. He watched intently out of the corner of his eye for her reaction and answer; Yes, she said.

For a moment Udo, looked away as his heart-raced. He felt suddenly like he were standing on a long strip of sand, ever extending, never changing in all directions; the only break from the endless expanse of nothing was the lone vehicle and sole means of escape from that place slowly shrinking as it moved away in the distance, leaving Udo stranded in his sandtrap hell. What seemed like minutes in his mind resorted to seconds as Udo returned to the now. He looked down at the table and nodded, before grabbing his drink and brusquely pushing away from the table to stand. He turned towards Videor and TK, holding his glass out.
"A toast then" He looked around the table to see who planned in joining him. "To family, and future."
He looked at TK with an appoligetic smile and a face that gleamed with congradulations, yet, in his eyes, there was no lies or secrets; his happiness was only skin deep at the moment.

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 13:53

TK teleported back to the table, glancing at Udo and his raised glass. TK sat down and said, "I'm sorry...give me a few minutes then we all can toast..." TK looked over at Alevon, "If I say something to you that I normally wouldn't, don't forget, its not entirely my fault and so help me if I have a miscarriage, I'm killing you." Something about TK's aura was dark and evil as she looked at Alevon, that something she had did well to hide after her 13th birthday.

TK took a deep breath as the atmosphere changed back to how it was before her and Alevon went at it. "Emir, Nicole, I apologize. I should have known better not to kiss my fiancé around Alevon for he'd kiss his beloved too. I know it bothered you and I am truly sorry..." TK lowed her head to her brother and sister in shame.

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 13:56

Videor opened his mouth to say something before suddenly the entire building shook with a strong force, a cackling laughter heard as other eruptions were heard, but no more that hit this building. Videor instantly ignored everyone else and ran inside. After seeing TK was in the bathroom and still okay, he sent an illusion to the front of the restaurant. There wasn't much to see however...

Resting in the building was an incredibly large bullet, it's size that of a van. Videor looked out in shock to see a man standing atop a taller building, laughing as he disappeared every few second, appearing somewhere else. Though the laughter persists. The man had a gun in his hand, what looked like a normal .22 pistol, and he pointed it at a building down the road, and shot. The bullet started off normal, but then grew to the size of a van in just a moment as it struck he building with incredible force, nearly destroying the building. All the man could do was laugh.

"Damnit! Of all the times for an attack they attack now!" Videor thought angerly ashe just watched, knowing he'd stay behind to protect TK.

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 13:57

Alevon raises his eyebrow and chuckles slightly
"You did nothing wrong, it's perfectly normal for that to happen. I'm sorry if it bothered you, but it is a common thing for couples to kiss en mass at such occasions"

Alevon smiles, but his head is filled with past assassinations at such events...that's why he knew these things are normal...unfortunately...

He raises a glass
"...but yes, I do appologize"

Not a moment after, the building shook and such, Alevon immediately stands up and turns around, looking to see what was going on

"Oh why did I ever fall for an idiot once upon a time." She said, clearly losing her sense of watching what she said but she didn't care.

Once she heard the laughter after an attack, TK stood to her feet but fell back to her seat just as quick. A sharp pain surged through TK's body from her stomach as if she felt the baby pulling at her insides.

Our baby is growing...mom said I would have the baby in 4 and 1/2 months but damn...

TK pushed the dishes forward and rested her upper body across the table with closed eyes. She was clearly in pain, exhausted, and doing her best to stay conscious of all times.

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 14:07

"Oh, come on!" Gabrielle's mood turned rancid again as she quickly bounced away from the table, grabbing onto Udo's arm in the process. She looked around at the man shooting bullets and narrowed her eyes, beginning to regret having come.

Even though she let go of Udo she darted for an efficient hiding place. If nobody had followed her with their eyes, they would've thought she was gone. Alone, gritting her teeth, she extended an arm towards the man. Knowing his displacements were random, four panthers appeared on the taller building.

The creatures appeared to thrive in the cool night atmosphere as they chased after the armed perpetrator.

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 14:08

Udo nodded politely and took his seat again. He rolled his eyes as sarcasm rolled off her tongue towards Alevon. Though not mis-placed, the frustration could only lead to more unpleasantness. Udo took a sip of his beer and glanced towards the door; he felt a familiar urge to set himself away from the group as the woodland scent of the enviornment surrounding the resturaunt finally reached his nostrils. The air inside suddenly felt thick and heavy; crowded with the animosity the group strived to keep buried.

"I'm going to step out on the deck for a moment." He said, as he stood from his seat and nodded cordially to the group. No sooner did he do so, did the building shake from some outside impact. He looked back for Gabrielle; she was gone. Udo's hands clenched his cane as he watched Videor rush outside. Udo followed him quickly, hopping on one foot occasionally to speed himself.

When he made it outside and noticed the abnormally large bullets he joined Videor.
"Masterminds?" He asked, already feeling out the surrounding for material he liked.

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 14:11

Alevon ignores TK's comment and stays still for a moment before slowly walking to where the sound was coming from

Once he spotted the man, he took it upon himself to flag him down
"HEY! WE'RE TRYING TO HAVE A NICE TIME IN HERE!"
Hey yells, quite frankly, Alevon is p*ssed

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 14:14

"Oy! Lookie 'ere! Some kitty cats wanna play! Well I got something for em roght ere!" As the man disappeared, once he came back into view he was above the building, and one of his boots were the size of a small car as he made to stomp one into the building.

"The timing... This is wrong... Everything was going great..." Videor was thinking these as he was with TK, at her side and lightly rubbing her back before answering Udo,"No... This man is not a part of them..."

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 14:16

In an instant, Alevon's suit forms around his body and he turns to the boot, unleashing a torrent of energy at it from his palms

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 14:20

TK leaned back against Videor as she looked up at the enemy ahead. She did well to ignore Udo and hoped he'd stay his distance for she wasn't entirely over him yet. TK closed her left eye and raised her right hand in the air at the man. "My job is to protect them...all of them...I won't let you harm my comrades..." she replied. Although her breathing was heavy, TK did her best to concentrate on the enemy, thinking of swallowing him in her precious vacuum.

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 14:23

The man's boot fried for a moment before he disappeared again, appearing atop another building,"Oy! These were bran new too!" As he starts to float up, his gun pointed at the restaurant.

Videor held TK, saying,"Tsinanae, it's alright. They can handle him. Please, rest for now."

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 14:25

Alevon stops time and sprints up the building, the claws digging into the cement as he does so. He stops right in front of the gun.

Time unpauses and slows as he grabs the gun, aimed at his chest.

Alevon smiles at the man as the gun is absorbed

Ariel stood up and turned to see their new attacker, those giant sized bullets scaring her slightly.

'Ah shit, why now?'

'Let me out! I can fight!'

'Shut up! I can do this!'

She ran over to Videor and TK, making sure her best friend was alright. Then she turned to Videor.

"If this guy isn't part of the Masterminds, then what is he doing?" she asked.

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Thu 30 Dec 2010 - 14:26

Gabrielle was almost as pissed off to the point of shouting to the piece of furniture she was hiding behind. It almost felt like a video game with a particularly annoying boss fight to her.

Almost.

"Oh yeah?" she growled to the man, by herself. Her voice was subdued. "You don't like cats? Well how about..."

There was a large thud as the heavy shadow bear appeared on top of the poor building. Its roar seemed to go on top of any other scream of the people still outside, and Gabrielle seriously wondered why her beasts came with vocal chords. She gritted her teeth stronged, bracing for impact, as the bear lunged its spiky claws.

She gasped pretty loudly as in the black-and-white vision of her bear she saw Alevon. She jumped out of hiding, incredulous, and the bear vanished before she could have it hit.
