Mario: I honestly think that he wouldn't care anyways.
Complice: That angel in the story was... Zera?
Chirp: Yeah, seems like it. *retarded grin*

Leet: o.O
*Guest Chamber*
Luma X: Around the same time that Zera and Dolores introduced themselves, the woman meanwhile was waiting for her last member to arrive so that the meeting would start. Leaping out of the trees and joining the other three creatures, the silver creature made her appearance, waiting for the woman to respond. "Report." The silver creature explained that the person who kidnapped the angel girl was a dark witch who goes by the name of "Queen Dolores Amethystilica Silhouette Villa," and lives in the monsterous black castle nearby. The woman's eye widened out of sheer disbelief. "A dark witch, you say? My, isn't this most convenient. I will make sure she feels pain so great that she will be warm and sticky inside for years on end! I'll show that witch not to touch my angel, how dare she!" The black creature floated up to her and shook her arm a little, asking her to calm down. The woman did so, getting back to her point. She explained that there will be a change of plans, and that their only objective is to capture the witch. "Objectives afterward would be explained in due time," she said. The group devised a plan, and decided that the stealth tasks belong to the woman and the silver creature, timing and coordination were assigned to the black creature, and demolition and capturing were divided among the teal and green creatures. "We strike at eleven. The moon will be in the middle of the sky at midnight, and by then, we should have already captured the witch. Understood?" The creatures nodded, and began mingling, already knowing they were dismissed. However, the silver one, as usual, was missing. "Stay here, I will be right back." She returned back to her little castle home and picked up the spellbook, looking for the spell that allowed her to become one with the book. She found it and discovered that the difficulty level of mastering it was not as hard as she expected. Or maybe she's just powerful enough to master spells harder than that one. Whatever the case, the woman placed the spellbook against her heart, adrenaline rushing through her. She was scared stiff of what would happen to her body if the spell failed. But a familiar sense of curiosity overtook her once more, and she closed her eyes and chanted a strange set of words, waving her free arm in front of her. Just then, a spark flew from the book and onto the floor. Then, many sparks of many different colors shot from the book for nearly a minute. After that, it stopped. The woman was confused as to why the spellbook was still in her hand and why she didn't feel any different than before, and was about to start the spell all over when a rainbow-colored ring surrounded her feet and made her think otherwise. She suddenly felt hot and sweaty, her feet tingling with a hot-ice feeling. She tried to stop the weird feeling between her legs by keeping them tightly closed, but she panted even more heavily, disappointed that the same spot became so warm that she was nearly soaked. As the eye uncovered by her hair rolled to the back of her head, rainbow flames shot from the ring surrounding her feet and engulfed her completely, making the spellbook slowly disappear as it fused itself with her. White spiraling beams of light flourished from the floor as well, making the scene ever more colorful. After a minute of this, all the light surrounding the woman suddenly vanished, causing a small shockwave that eerily blew out every bulb in the room.
Daisy: Oooh... creepy.
Luma X: SHH I'm not done! >.<
Daisy: OH, sorry!
Luma X: . . . Darkness . . . Darkness. That was all the woman could see around her, darkness. It was dead silent, she could not even hear the sound of her own breathing. So quiet... it was as if everything in the universe stood frozen in time, not making even the smallest noise. So quiet, that the silence resembled the death of everything, nothing remaining. The sound of void... It was so quiet that the woman actually heard a noise coming from the silence: an ominous, low-pitched, vibrating sound; it frightened her to an infinite extent. But the more it scared her, the larger the grin she had spreading across her face, teeth gleaming in the blackness of the room. She enjoyed that feeling, embraced it, loved it. However, it occured to her that she was actually standing frighteningly still, keeping her eyes closed while she imagined the outward appearance of the darkness around her. She opened her eyes, but it didn't change a thing; she could still see black, everywhere. At least, for the first few seconds. Eventually, her eyesight began to evolve into something more advanced... out of the eye which was not covered with her hair, she could see only a few things... but out of the other eye, she could see everything, which was slightly fuzzy and had a green hue... Curious, the woman closed her eyes again and made a ball of light appear at the end of her finger. She was able to even see with her eyes closed now... She also felt something else within her too. She sensed a force within her, rising, containing an out-of-control nature, with an overwhelming craving for her every secret desire. She assumed it could be her usual lust for power, but oh no... it was quite different this time around. She recalled a few moments ago when she was grinning... What WAS that, she wondered. At first it took control of her, then disappeared. But now it was happening again, and quickly. Her insides began to churn and make gruesome noises, causing sharp and unbareable pain. To try to distract herself, she repaired every light in the room, and turned them on. She then sat on the sofa, panting loudly as her body began overheating for reasons unknown to her. Sweat soaked her luscious black hair and her clothes even began to cling to her. She was beginning to form the thought of going to take a cold shower to fix all this when she suddenly felt an unfathomable uprise in power, making her scream at the top of her lungs as she gripped her head with her hands. Clearly, she was unable to withstand this and was about to explode. For a moment and only a moment though, she felt the power fade away. She used this instant to look down at herself, confused... She gasped at the blood-colored aura surrounding her, flames of mysterious dark energy slowly whipping off her arms and legs... as well as the rest of her body. Within a split second, she thought of reading the spellbook when she then remembered that she WAS the spellbook, and immediately began thinking of a spell that was able to reverse the effects. However, before she could finish her thought, the pain and power came back, more intense than ever. She screamed so loud that one of the lights exploded again, and upon hearing the sound of the glass shatter, she finished her unfinished thought and came to a conclusion: There was no way to reverse this spell. She sat there hopelessly, moaning loudly, not having any strength left to scream, when, for a final time, the power inside her rose so high that she felt as if her very soul was being ripped asunder; this suffering was on a whole new level of painful torture, brutal enough to force the woman to scream WORLDS louder than she ever did in her entire life. She just wished it would stop, or at least wished someone or something put her out of her misery... Flames of a dark-orange hue blasted furiously upward, yet they had no effect on any object, as potent as they were. The woman sat upright, gripping the couch and ripping it open... How long had it been since she first started feeling this way? One minute, maybe two? It didn't matter, it felt like an eternity to her. Would it ever stop, she wondered... By the time it does, would she be dead? She was about to form the words "HELP ME" with her open, screaming mouth when her superheated stomach became more upset than the rest of her, stopping the terrible pain and upsurge in power and cutting her off mid-scream. She suddenly had the urge to vomit, which still somehow forced her to have enough strength to hurry upstairs to the bathroom, which she did. She hung her head over the rim of the toilet bowl and upchucked with everything she had, hoping to actually die, literally sick of the suffering she had endured thus far. After she had vomited once, the woman gradually began to feel better both inside and out, as if nothing had happened. Relieved, she slumped against the wall, sighing heavily, clearly irritated... This had been a long night. She was sure the book was causing all of this, but she was unaware of the side effects, not that there were any mentioned in the instructions of the fusion spell. She thought about the creatures... how many blooddrops did they say they collected? 427? ...And they searched every village within a ten-mile radius... That is a long distance... She thought about how low the population is out here, in the Forest of the Unknown... It felt as though her breathing had returned to normal, and was about to stand up, but she felt a strange taste in her mouth, and it didn't taste like stomach acid... it tasted like blood, only ... tastier? Was such a thought really in her head? She dabbed her finger against her lip and looked at it, gasping at first, thinking the color was this awkward shade because her makeup had simply run down her face because of all the screaming and crying she had done earlier. She wiped under her eye though, and was shocked to discover that none of her makeup had went anywhere. To make sure, she stood up and looked in the mirror, checking every inch of her face. It was as if she was this way the whole time... as she looked on in the mirror, gradually admiring her own stunning face, she caught something absolutely horrific out the corner of her eye. She glanced at the inside of the toilet and immediately jumped back, scared senseless. She stared wide-eyed at the dark black sludge that lie in the water, motionless. She wondered if THAT really came out of her, remembering the black smudge on her finger, and also remembering that it tasted like blood... Had her blood turned black? She was about to use the ignorance of her curiosity by satisfying it with a slash to her own hand, when she suddenly felt her consciousness slipping away; she knew she was standing still but could not move. She knew she was alive but felt like she was on Death's Door. She stood there, transfixed with horror, confusion, and lifelessness as she watched while everything before her became farther and farther away, getting sucked into a tiny hole where her eyes were focusing on. Likewise, she felt like she was being flushed down the toilet... although she had never felt it before, she was sure that if it had a feeling, this would be it. . . At least, those were the thoughts that WOULD run through her head only if her entire existance wasn't being cast into absolute oblivion right now. At this point, the only thing she saw was white... followed by the blackest black... She heard a "ding" sound and quickly came to. She looked around, still seeing the mess she made in the toilet, which she flushed. The woman walked out of the bathroom and back downstairs, continuing into the kitchen looking for a device available to tell her what time it was. Ten in the evening, her mind told her. She knew now that she didn't need a clock in order to tell time anymore, she was magic. For an instant an image of the angel flashed in her mind, and she lowered her head, walking outside. After a few paces, she stopped and looked up at the full moon... and giggled. She giggled... then she began laughing softly to herself, becoming increasingly louder with every laugh. Soon, she was laughing maniacly without any reason whatsoever, and even couldn't think of one; all she knew was that she had the desire to laugh, and that she didn't want to stop. Soon though, she did, realizing that time was of the essence... The woman looked ahead at the moonlit trail before her, and proceeded... Meanwhile, the angel by the name of Zera was begrudgingly following orders from the dark witch Dolores, who had already verbally manipulated her into becoming her servant. Earlier, the angel had explained to the witch her entire life story up to the point in her life where she ran away from "home." The witch pondered on why she didn't stay with the woman in the first place and helped her fulfill her purpose; in the end, they both would have become happy together. The angel was despondent. The witch took her silence as an opportunity to make a deal with her. She stated that if she did her bidding, she would give the angel anything she desired. "Besides... you want to prevent her from killing innocents, do you not?" The angel nervously nodded, and the witch gave her orders: Seek and destroy. The angel immediately objected to her request, saying that it wouldn't make her any different than the woman. The witch simply lied to the angel and told her that sometimes, murder justifies murder because it is unavoidable; death was a natural occurance in the universe. She told her to get to the rest of the women before the woman could, and quickly. The angel refused at first, saying that she wouldn't dare make her hands bloodstained for the sake of others. The witch grew annoyed with the angel's persistance, and punished her harshly. The angel squeeled in pain, begging that she'd stop beating her. The witch stood over the angel, who stared back into the witch's eyes with her innocent own. The angel finally agreed to follow the witch's orders, and quickly flew away... Now, here she was, barely putting forth any effort into assassinating the women, for she had ascended into one of her strongest transformations, one that allowed her to control the wind as well as stop time, both abilities of which were very useful to her. Eventually she became bored with only killing the women, which she thought was a very evil thing to do... she saw other creatures who took on the form of the women, but were impure in nature and much more repulsive in appearance. The angel remembered the witch telling her to beware of savage beasts called "men"... maybe these creatures were the ones she spoke of? Not wasting any time, she created a thin blade made of air which grew and surrounded her arm from her elbow to about a foot in front of her fingers. She froze time, and within 3 seconds, had instantly killed everyone in the village, whipping the blood off the end of her wind blade. She began thinking that people were very scarce around these parts, and assumed her duty was completed. In the instant she began heading back towards the castle, which was an impossible distance away, she suddenly descended into her first form and floated slowly to the ground, not having enough energy to fly in her fourth form. She pouted, knowing that it would take much longer this way to get to the castle. She fluttered off the ground and slowly flew in the direction of the castle... As this was happening, the newly-reformed woman stood impatiently, once again waiting for the silver creature to appear; the other 3 were waiting as well. Just as she was getting ready to miserably postpone the mission till the next full moon, a flash of light in the shape of a spear came from deep within the woods at breakneck speed, and was heading in the direction of the woman's face, who quickly reacted by reflecting the object with her whip. As the object flew high into the air, spinning, the woman recognized the object as the silver creature's weapon, who had thrown it at her in order to make her presence known. The kunai knife spun downward, and the tip of the blade landed upright in the dirt. The woman looked in the direction the kunai had came from, and then fixed her eyes upward at the silver creature who had leapt out of the trees and high into the sky. The woman regarded her fondly as the silver star creature gleamed softly in the moonlight. She then disappeared back into the trees and used a strange cosmic energy to grab onto the branches, swinging herself closer to the group. At about 100 feet away, she violently propelled herself forward toward another branch and swung around it a few times before launching herself dead into the clearing and onto the path with the rest of the group, where she landed at high speed, twirling around and skidding to a halt next to her blade. She pulled it out of the ground, put it in the pouch in her back, and stated proudly with a smile, "Here." The other creatures looked on in amazement as the woman said with an evil grin, "Commence the operation." With that, the group split into their squads and spread throughout the forest, heading in the direction of the castle.

Complice: There it is, Miss.
Luma X: Haha, no need for the formalities...
Complice: Sorry, it's just... in my nature.
Luma X: Oh. *looks at the giant arch-shaped window high above the throne*
Complice: It's a very large window, isn't it? =o
Luma X: Hm, I believe it is because we're just so smal*GASP!!* 8(
Complice: Huh? W-what's wrong?
Luma X: I may be just acting insanely paranoid, but... the moon is full.
Complice: That is a bit ...strange, I guess.
Luma X: I don't think you understand...
Daisy: I understand.
Luma X: *startled, turns around flinging the kunai at mach speed at Daisy*
Daisy: *with precise timing, swats the kunai away with her bare wrist* Crap X, calm down, it's just me! Daisy!
Luma X: How in the world did you... with your hand...?
Daisy: Yeah, I have no clue either.
Complice: You KNOW that had to hurt.
Daisy: Nope, not at al-*DELAYED REACTION* OW!! OWWW!! FUCKING SHEEZBALLS THAT HURT, AAAGH! GAWD! X'C Ow...
Luma X: That thing's a lot harder and heavier than it looks, you know.
Daisy: I KNOW THAT! X'O
*Teel, calling from the quarters: That's what she saaaid!
Luma X: *flies over to the kunai, picks it up, and flings it at Teel, bopping him in the head with the handle*
*Teel is knocked unconscious*
Complice: Looks like that thing works from both ends, huh?
Luma X: Please stop with the naughty jokes.
Complice: It wasn't a joke, I was talking about the kunai! <=o ... (Ohhh, I get it.) *trollface*
Luma X: *slaps Complice*
Daisy: So... it's a full moon eh?
Luma X: Yeah... what's even worse about it is its color, it's dark blue.
Daisy: Hmm... =.= .. =o If you look hard enough, you can see a creepy outline around it, much like sometimes, ya know, when there's a rainbow around the moon?
Luma X: Oh? *continues to look* (I am damn sure the moon is NOT supposed to be this color, but... could it be just by coincidence that that woman's legacy is being told on the night of a full moon? ...No, it couldn't be.) I see... them.
Daisy: Huh, "them?" S=T
Luma X: The flames... around the moon.
Daisy: *looks, then turns back to her* I'm sorry but uh, I don't see any flames.
Luma X: Only the ones who have been in contact with her can.
Daisy: ... "Her?"- X, you're bein a bit too vague, care to shed some light on the subject?
Complice: I'm kind of lost too.
Luma X: The rest of the story will explain it all...
Daisy: Well... can you see that creepy dark purple ring right around the edge of the moon there?
Luma X: Yes Daisy, I see it... (The fact alone that the moon is blue already signifies that something is wrong, without a doubt. But... those dark orange flames in the shape of large ring surrounding the moon... could that be...?) *sigh* I'm heading back to the chamber now. Are you coming, Daisy?
Daisy: . . .
Luma X: Daisy?
Daisy: I can see them.
Luma X: What?! HOW?
Daisy: Didn't you say that only the ones who came into contact with this particular girl can see em? I musta saw her at one point or another.
Luma X: But how?! You aren't even mentioned in the legacy! Not once!
Daisy: *shrugs*
Luma X: . . . You have a unique ability, don't you Daisy... Tell me the truth, who or what are you?
Daisy: I'm me, duh. xP
Complice: (I have no clue what's going on anymore.) '-' *watches closely*
Daisy: Other than my second Striker form, yeah, I do have another ability. But it lies deep within me. I hafta sorta concentrate real hard in order to feel it.
Luma X: What is it??
Daisy: Ehh... Well, I have the ability to ... man, this is hard to explain.
Luma X: It's okay dear, take your time...
Daisy: Um... This might sound nuts, but I've lived a million lives. >>;
Luma X: A million?? How so?
Daisy: My heart... it somehow lives the lives of many daisy flowers, so I ...subconsciously get to meet many different people, I guess.
Luma X: W-wha...? e.0?!
Daisy: Let me explain it this way: The reason I'm so damn happy all the time... it's because my heart is filled with the love of other people's admiration of the daisy flower. It lifts me up... I adore the feeling, it makes me feel alive. It makes my heart super happy to see all the smiling faces that pluck, look at, or stroke all the daisies in the world... to be honest, it kinda tickles. x3
Luma X: Interesting... so you say you meet many different people in your heart... is there a single one in particular that ...I don't know, struck your fancy?
Daisy: Ehh... o.o?
Luma X: I mean, is there anyone that may have loved daisies far more than any of the people you've ever ... "met?"
Daisy: Well, I did catch Peachy one time sniffing a daisy... she even went so far as rubbing her face against it! ...Which was both creepy and just plain adorable.
Luma X: Yes, go on...
Daisy: Ugh. Um... Yeah, I once tried to sense all the people who loved daisies the most. Believe it or not, that uh... that Chirp ghosty over there was one of em!
Complice: &} (PFFTHAHA, whatta loser.)
Luma X: Hm, isn't THAT something...
Daisy: Yeaaah, there are a LOT of people who seem coocoo for daisies, most of who I don't even know. Countless, really. Heheh, Luigi got curious one day though, after learning what a daisy looked like... he thought it was a eight-armed eyeball and got scared, and ran away. x}
Complice: _ _lll (He's a bigger loser than Chirp.)
Luma X: (So far, she's beating around the bush... I'm not getting the answer I'm looking for, I'll have to pry hard-)
Daisy: But...
Luma X: Oh?
Daisy: *looks up at the moon* One day, I delved into my heart, and saw a softly glowing bubble, which is how I normally "meet" other people but... this bubble glowed more brightly than all the rest, making the others fade away; this bubble was the only one that appealed to me.
Luma X: . . .
Daisy: I looked into it... I saw a pretty little girl with black hair, and gorgeous blue eyes. It was just this one single daisy she loved so much, she even took care of it, watering it every day... Don't ask me how I know this, but that water tasted a lil funny to me... it sure helped the flower grow though. Damn thing was half the size of a tree. =T
Complice: DB> (The HELL?!)
Daisy: Call me crazy, but I think the girly was usin magic...!
Luma X: O.O...
Daisy: It grew to the point of even bein big enough for the girl to hug it! ...She really loved that flower, it even had its own glow... it was really the most beautiful flower I ever saw dude, seriously... *sniff*
Luma X: Aw... don't cry...
Daisy: I'm not sad or anything, *sniff* at least, not yet... She watered that daisy every single day, and when she poured the water, it flowed so purely and had pretty rainbow sparkles all around it... It brought the daisy so much joy, it grew like mad... these are tears of joy, seeing that girl raise a flower like that really touches my heart. . . *sniff* <=}
Complice: Uh, what happened to the flower and the girl?
Daisy: Ohh... you just HAD to ask, didn't you. Look... One day, the girl came to water the daisy, as she normally would. The flower grew a little more, and she hugged and even KISSED it goodbye. Right AFTER she left... from my view, I saw a grey blur go by the flower, and damn, was it fast... *sob, sniff* the poor thing got sliced clean in half, and fell to the ground.
Luma X: O_O!!! Oh, my, GOD.
Complice: '_- You sure are taking this harder than I am.
Luma X: I don't think you'd understand. (That's the same day I first greeted her...)
Daisy: It was tragic... Just when I had started to love the girl because of her strong devotion to something as divine and simple as a daisy... I was devastated. You think I was feeling bad THEN, ...you have no fucking clue how dead and empty I was on the inside when that girl came back the next day and saw that flower there, lying on the ground... that girl screamed so friggin loud that I got insane chest pain and started crying, as if my chest wasn't already hurting enough from the sadness that gushed from my punctured heart. God... I felt so sorry for her AND the flower. I... I just...
Teel: *floats up to Luma X, handing her the kunai* Here turd, I thought you might need this. *floats away*
Luma X: (What does he mean by that?) Daisy...
Daisy: Yeah? What?
Luma X: That . . . was a part of the legacy I left out specifically because I didn't want you to... hate me for it.
Daisy: Huh? Why would I hate you?
Luma X: . . . *takes her kunai and hugs it tightly* ... "The grey blur...it was fast. It cut the daisy right in half. A girl saddened, a flower tormented - this is the emotional aftermath."
Daisy: . . .
Luma X: It was I Daisy, who cut down that flower. I am sorry.
Daisy: *eyes widen out of shock, and she drops to her knees hopelessly* . . .
Luma X: Please... don't hate me. I was very heartless back then.
Daisy: I won't hate you... *voice begins quivering as she gets up, glowing orange* And I say this not as just Daisy, but as a PRINCESS...
Luma X: *backs up a little, terrified*
Daisy: I won't hate you... But I will never forgive you for what you have done to that poor soul.
Luma X: I will gladly accept any punishme- WHOA! *instinctively guards herself with the kunai*
Daisy: *punches Luma X with all her might, forcing all her fury and body weight into it that causes a shockwave resembling a 4.0 earthquake, shaking the entire top floor*
*Luma X goes spiral-flying all the way across the room, through the Master Quarters past everyone else, and into the Guest Chamber where she violently slams against the wall and faceplants onto the floor, unconscious*
Daisy: No hard feelins. >
Complice: O.< Talk about getting PWN3D.
Daisy: Come on Comp, go sit down with everyone else; I'm sure X'll be willin to tell us another story after this. ... She better tell us EVERYTHING too, and I friggin mean it. Or else... she'll get another one-a thOSE. *massages her sore wrist, and cracks her knuckles*
Complice: O...kay. *quickly flies back to the rest of the group*
Teel: . . .
Leet: . . .
Chirp: Why are you two so quiet??
Teel: You still haven't figured it out yet? ... Man, you're stupider than you look-
Chirp: *viciously blasts lightning at the wall next to Teel's head* >&7
Mario: WHAOo, ...in record time too.
Teel: I would say "you missed," but then you'd rage some mo-
Leet: *hack-summons a giant hammer* 5HU7 UP, 733L. T_T
Teel: Whatev-
Leet: 1 541D... 5HU7 Y0UR F4C3!!! XO *flings the green hammer at Teel, smashing him against the wall*
Teel: *pushes the hammer away with a teal-colored pole extending from a giant teal shield that severely slowed the impact*
Leet: D4MN Y0U... =_= *disperses his hammer*
Teel: Don't underestimate me. *disperses his shield*
Mario: What? They have the SAME ABILITIES?! =O
Luigi: DANG this is getting good, I can barely take this much epic!
Mario: ... "take this much... epic??" . . . ME NEITHER! 8D
Complice: I bet this is because seeing Daisy ... "DAISY" Luma X like that has gotten them all hiped up.
Chirp: Did anybody even SEE that?
Mario and Luigi: I did.
Leet: *throws a green bomb at Teel* 0H, Y0U M34N 7H47 CR4ZY 7URB0-BL457 F4LC0N PUNCH? Y43H, 7H47 W45 3P1C.
Teel: It looked like a Daisy to me. *swats the bomb back in Leet's direction using a teal baseball bat*
Leet: *inhales the bomb, belching obnoxiously* ... 7H47 W45 G00D. >w<
Daisy: Stop fighting you two. *storms in between the two Lumas, heading back into the bedroom and slamming the door shut*
Chirp: Gee, intense much?
Complice: What do we do now? Luma X is knocked out cold.
Chirp: We wait here patiently until she wakes up. In the meantime we'll just skip to the next scene.
Mario: WHAT? That's not even fair-
*The Shadow Queen's Bedroom*
SQ: Zera...
Zera: c= ?
SQ: There is something about you... that would make you stand out amongst all of my subjects, ...if I had any... But, you're all I need.
Zera: Aww, that's so swe-
SQ: *puts her finger to Zera's lip* Hush, child.
Zera: =X
SQ: *takes Zera's hand in hers and looks into her turquoise eyes* Being around you really makes my day more delightful, if not much less uneventful. . . Wait, I meant... if not less boring, more... exciting. You know what I mean.
Zera: *nods*
SQ: You ... Brighten my day, Zera. You truly do...
Zera: Aren't the beatings an exception?
SQ: That is just my way of punishing ... my "child."
Zera: ... "Child?"
SQ: Yes, Zera... Child. This is how close you are to me.
Zera: =O...
Guest Chamber
Luma X: Ready, Daisy?
Daisy: *chewing on her toenail* ... Eh-Hurh? Whart? *ptew* Yeah, I'm ready, as usual.
Luma X: e_O ... v_v Okay, here goes...
The angel rushed as fast as she could back to the castle, which she wasn't entirely able to do considering her power was drained; even then she was still moving at an incredible speed... She hoped that nothing had happened to her superior, the dark witch. She sensed a small disturbance amongst the reassurance in her heart that made her certain that the witch was alright, but now... she felt a sharp pain in her heart that made her think otherwise; She clutched her chest as she flew, afraid of what could be going on... as the castle came into view at a large distance away, she saw a burning light on the side of the castle wall... Meanwhile, the woman and creatures traveled in their own formations: The woman, and the silver and black creatures moved through the trees together, while the green and teal-colored creatures were furiously racing through them, as if it was a competition to them. Likewise, in the group that the leader was in, the black one spoke up: "Just watch me X, I'm going to be a better ninja than you!" "Oh, is that so Naomi Musale? We will prove that with a stalking contest. If you manage to someday sneak upon me while I openly distribute startling information to others in a narrative fashion, you win. If you do not show yourself by the time I do this, you will lose." "Aw, that sounds too hard... Oh well, you'll see just how awesome of a kunoichi I'll be. And... please stop saying my last name." The woman chimed in. "You two, look sharp. This is our rendezvous point... They should be coming soon... That is, if they aren't arguing like always." The silver creature smirked. "There isn't a chance in hell that they wouldn't be." The silver one had the power to clone herself and was gathering data from all over the forest, and had confirmed that the other two members of the group, were indeed, arguing. "Fighting, to be more precise." The woman grew disappointed, and asked the black creature how the timing was doing. She replied that one of the clones that had been following the other two in secret had been using a giant ninja star that carried her through the trees. "...And?" replied the woman. She looked at the silver creature who said, "That particular clone had told Naomi telepathically that if they continued arguing at the pace they were going, they would be here shortly. I know because the clone is a part of me," she beamed. The woman said, "Strange, to think it would slow them down... Ah well, now, we wait." Upon saying that, the two burst through the thickness of the forest in an explosion of green and blue light, various weapon types attacking one another with immense force, sparks shooting in different directions and shockwaves that cleared the leaves off the trees. The woman stepped in between the warring children and yelled "Stop!", but the two fought around her and proceeded to have one final clash. Only moments before the collision, the woman stepped in once more, arms outstretched in separate directions, forcing both attacks to be executed on either side of her; a large explosion occurred once more... a dark figure standing still in the smoke with a lone white glowing eye confirmed the woman's survival. Her tail moved slowly from side to side... "I said, STOP." she growled. The two creatures obeyed and immediately separated. The black one ordered them to go northeast for about 15 seconds and then face west, while her squad headed farther north. "Where are YOU guys going?" the green creature yelled. The black one answered, "We're going to wait for you and him to bust into the castle. Meanwhile, WE'LL be backing you up and will show up in the nick of time in case our target gets hostile." "So basically, me and him are doing all the work, right?" asked the teal one sarcastically. The silver creature answered, "Yes, yes you are. Now go." Once again, the group continued on toward the castle ... The green and teal creatures reached their destination as instructed, and they both knew what they had to do next. The green creature summoned a cannon and forced himself inside of it. The cannon fired the creature toward the wall of the castle, and before impact, he managed to summon a rocket launcher and fire it, clearing a large enough hole in the wall to enter inside of it. He did so, and was immediately confronted by the dark witch, who had been startled greatly, as well as displeased; she began attacking him with blasts of energy, and the green creature engaged her. Meanwhile, the teal one fired himself into the same hole, and also entered the battle. The other group was beginning to close in on the castle wall, and the woman used her newfound magic to leap high into the air and create a mid-air ice slide that lead right into the hole. She and the other two were surprised to see that the witch had been both caught and knocked unconscious, tied in ropes that the green creature had made. The woman though, was highly enchanted by the witch's appearance. "She is highly attractive for a witch..." She said under her breath, thinking no one would hear. The silver one did though, and watched closely as the woman slowly licked her lips... "What do we do now!?" the green creature shouted obnoxiously. The woman looked outside the hole a little to the North, and her eyes widened as the silver one said exactly what the woman was about to say: "Someone is heading this way, and at breakneck speeds. We must make haste." "Precisely. Everyone, follow me back to my home as fast as you can keep up. Other plans will fall into place later." They vanished from the castle only moments before the angel arrived, investigating the bedroom in which her superior was in before she left. When she searched through the entire castle and could not find her, she screamed in a fit of rage and sadness, heartbroken that she was gone... The group meanwhile heard her loud and clear, and decided to pick up the pace. The witch struggled in the ropes, tears in her eyes... ...The group arrived at the woman's domain, all the creatures wondering what their next objective was, now that the witch was captured. "Follow me," said the woman as she retreated upstairs. With the witch in tow, the creatures obeyed as the woman led them to the dark back room featuring the throne. It seemed that there was nothing else in the room except just the throne... and a mysterious magical vibe emanating from the middle of the room. Curious as usual, the woman innocently perambulated until she reached the magical aura - she didn't want to make anyone too suspicious. Her footsteps echoed eerily against the stone floor for quite a while before dying down, only to be replaced by yet another step... the woman knelt down and caressed the floor with her hand, feeling the range of the enchanted fumes. She stood up and pointed to the floor, signaling for the green creature to bring her the witch. Wasting no time, he floated over to her, the witch just barely asleep in the ropes. "So... Now what do we do?" asked the teal creature. The woman shot him a sharp glance and replied with "Await further instruction." She stared at the witch in deep thought... Knowing she had about twenty minutes left until the critical moment, she decided to use this time to admire the witch. She instructed that the green creature let her down gently, and then leave her there beside her so that he may take a small break and socialize with the others. As the green creature was about to lower the witch, his powers suddenly diminished as the ropes vanished, dropping the witch two feet above the floor. Angry, the woman slapped the green creature. "I said GENTLY you DOLT!" The creature apologized sincerely and explained to her his dilemma. The woman also apologized for her outburst. She paused for a moment before saying, "Still... leave my sight. Mingle." The green creature nodded, and joined the others, who were waiting for him to begin conversing this whole time. "Leet, you dropped the witch. Why, did you drop the wi-" "Shut up Naomi! I ran out of celestial powers, okay?!" "Haha, so that's why you dropped her? How pathetic, I knew I should have carried her instead of you. You're such a weakling, Leet." "Teel, any more outta you and I'll...!" "Teel, you shouldn't talk to our most feared brethren in that manner." "'Most feared?' I don't care if he single-handedly destroyed an entire village by himself. You all don't seem to realize that I'm not scared of him." The green creature, ready to snap, approached the teal creature, seething with anger. "You wanna back that up, butthead? I'm not scared of YOU!" "Take your first shot. See if I care." The black creature spoke up. "A glutton for punishment, this guy." She chuckled as the two stared each other down. Before long, the green creature quickly turned the other way, unable to make the first move due to his power restraints. The silver creature frowned, turning to the teal one. "If Leet wasn't so exhausted, he'd have your head two different times by now." "I don't have a head, stupid." The silver creature grew annoyed with him and decided to ignore him. The black one seemed to be enjoying their bickering. "Haha, you guys are so silly."
Daisy: This... This is crazy, I ... I don't even WANT to know what's gonna happen next, I think I'm too mindblown to find out.
Luma X: Oh? Finished already? I was just getting warmed up...
Daisy: I mean with the whole... Zera as the angel, the green creature as Leet, the silver one as you, the black one as ... who the hell, and the teal one as Teel oh god that was so obvious, what am I saying. But yeah, ... crazy, like I said.
Luma X: Well, ... all us Lumas are in this "legacy." =o Know who the dark witch is yet? Who the woman is?
Daisy: Probably got a faint idea about the witch, but I have NO clue who the woman is.
Luma X: I bet. Most mysterious character in the story. It's actually about her.
Daisy: Weird... Nearly everyone here is actually IN this story, or at least may have had something to do with it or one of the characters in the story in at least ONE point in time or another.
Luma X: Haha, you think THIS story is twisted? Just wait until you hear the sequel.
Daisy: There's a SEQUEL?!
Luma X: Well, yes, and ... no. No, because there is more to this story than just its ending. There are facts and secrets yet to be unlocked after the story is finished being told...
Daisy: Mhmm, go on... Cause I know you're holding back. >=]?
Luma X: Oh Daisy, you don't even KNOOOOW. C;<
Daisy: Come on, finish tellin me!
Luma X: Right. Where was I... Yes, there MIGHT be a sequel because well... something is amiss... with the moon and all.
Daisy: ... You can tell that there's gonna be a sequel just because the moon's a funny color? )=o
Luma X: Never underestimate a ninja's instinct. ...I'm serious, remember those words well Daisy. The biggest secrets of all have yet to reveal themselves...
Daisy: I'll keep that in mind. ...Hey, what's your name anyways?
Luma X: Haha, can't tell ya that. What did I just say, Daisy? >;D
Daisy: Ohhh all right. >T
Luma X: Patience is a virtue, my dear princess. =3
Daisy: Got another chapter ready yet?
Luma X: Yeah. But I have to check in with the Idiot Brigade first. *opens the door, looking on as everyone outside the door has their mouths dropped open* ... Uh. O.o
Leet: W0W, 733L, Y0U W3R3 4 D0UCH3B4G B4CK 7H3N! 8O
Teel: Haha, I was. |D ... =o I still can't believe she recited that entire conversation from memory. ...Though I still think MY dialogue was totally rigged. >|0
Luma X: No no Teel, you actually said that. Believe it or not, before that mission to capture the witch even started, I had one of my clones join you.
Teel: BULLSHIT. 8O
Luma X: Not kiddiiing.~ The entire time, a clone was simply taking my place. She managed to uh... "record" everything you guys were saying. After "The Great Fiasco" she played it back to me a few times. It was actually funny hearing the way Leet called Teel a "butthead." x)
Daisy: *stands in the doorway* Wha... whaaat? You told me you were an ordinary ninja!
Luma X: That's the thing, I AM ordinary. Most ninjas have clones spread throughout the area, do they not? Ninja stars, quick thinking, wit and cunning, unfathomable knowledge, stylish moves, kunai knives, bombs, ... I don't even have those. That's why I have these two. *points to Teel and Leet*
Daisy: Ah, okay... But uh, "The Great Fiasco?"-
Luma X: Next chapter. >D
Daisy: DAMNIT! *snaps her fingers*
Leet: W417, ... 1F 4 CL0N3 W45 W17H U5 7H3 WH0L3 71M3, ...
Teel: Where the hell were YOU?
Luma X: Right outside the castlehouse, enjoying the full moon. It was quite beautiful that night. ...That is, until it turned the color that it is now.
Teel: What are you talking about? The moon's fine.
Luma X: I wouldn't be so sure Teel.
Daisy: I'll say. Creepy moon... seriously, you should see it. ... The heck's wrong with YOU guys?
*Chirp, Luigi, Mario, and Complice are all sitting still, mouths dropped open*
Luigi: O__.
Mario: o.O
Complice: 'o O;;
Chirp: &U ... *twitch*
Leet: L0L, WTF 15 WR0NG W17H C0MPL1C3'5 F4C3??? XD
Teel: Chirp's looks like a shocked duck.
Chirp: &U- >87 Hey, screw you!
Daisy: (That's a thoughtful way of greeting someone walking down the street.)
Teel: Okay, okay. ... I meant, a shocked CATAQUACK.
Chirp: Shut it, crotchwaffle!
Luigi: Huuuh... Now, why does THAT sound familiar. Eh bro? Eh, ehhh? >;D
Mario: ... Nope, doesn't ring a bell. =o
Luigi: *le facepalm*
Luma X: Back to the few matters at hand... Leet actually ran out of power because he had wasted his energy fighting with YOU, Teel.
Teel: Orly.
Luma X: Yarly. And even if you had carried the witch back to the fortress anyways, it wouldn't have made a difference.
Teel: Why is that?
Luma X: Because YOU would have also been in the same condition as Leet.
Teel: Oh. Yeah, but still, I wouldn't have DROPPED her.
Luma X: While that may be true and all, once we put your bad habits of laziness into play, it's pretty much looked at THIS way...
Teel: Oh god, here we go...
Luma X: Either you would have dropped the witch because of your laziness, or you would have dropped her because you spent all your energy slowly trudging along behind the group with the witch, draining your energy even more. Either way, you would have dropped the witch on the way to the fortress anyway, so overall it was a much wiser decision letting Leet handle the luggage.
Teel: Okay, you can stop lecturing me now, no one cares.
Mario: I do.
Teel: Well, I don't. |D
Mario: =C ... I don't like you.
Teel: I said I don't care-
Complice: ANYWAAAYS. About that moon Daisy, mind uh, tellin everyone what that's about? Maybe we could all just chill in the Throne Room, I think they have a couple couches we can cop a squat on.
Chirp: ...That's the best idea I've heard all day.
Mario: Let's-a go.
*The crowd leaves the Guest Chamber and enters the Throne Room, finding a seat to sit down in. The couches are all surrounding the stairs that lead to the throne.*
Daisy: Alright you guys... take a really good look. *points to the window above the throne*
Teel: Look, for the second time, I am TELLING you I don't see anything wrong with the FUCK HAPPENED TO THE MOON, CHIRP THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT. 8U
Chirp: ... It... It is? S=7
Leet: H3Y, 1'M 7H3 0N3 7H47'5 5UPP053D 70 B3 Y3LL1NG H3R3. 50, WH47'5 UP W17H 7H3 M00- OH MY FUCKING STARS. THE MOON BROKE. ... OH NO, SO DID MY ACCENT! <8O
Luma X: You'll get it back. And... the moon's not broken, it's just... Wow, sorry, but I can't explain this either.
Luigi: Figures. And to think you had alll this knowle*GASP* BRO GET UP YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS, THE MOON DYED ITS HAIR BLUE.
Mario: ...The fuck??? Okee-dokie, but I doubt it's any weirder than those letters that Peach keeps sending me about cake and celebrations, and just as I show up, Bowser does too. Ugh. *gets up* Hmm... I don't see it.
Daisy: Umm... Here. *points right at the moon* See it now?
Mario: *leans in and looks at the end of Daisy's finger, looking right outside the window* Uh, hm. I still don't seOH. OH. NO, NO, NO, NO NO NO. THIS IS WRONG, THIS IS ALL WRONG, WRONG WRONG WRONG HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN.
Luigi: T_T You weren't saying that when I was trapped under that saucer in the Battlerock Galaxy.
Mario: Yes, but at least I was being enthusiastic about your rescue, I was shouting "Whee" and "Wahoo" all over the place. That counts, right?
Luigi: T_T
Mario: >=T Well YOU took forever to get me out of that haunted mansion.
Luigi: I did that on PURPOSE. I was happy to finally have a little limelight. I was evENTUAlly going to rescue you, but I was too busy trying to get the ghosts out of the mansion, which took me waaay longer to do than I expected. ... Dude, I don't even know how you got trapped IN there.
Mario: ...Come to think of it, me neither. =o ... Same goes for you and that damned saucer-
Luma X and Daisy: SHUT UP ALREADY!
Mario: ._."
Luigi: >=V ... =X
Daisy: Everyone sit back down so X here can tell her story.
Chirp: But I haven't even seen the moon yet. =7
Daisy: You'll see it when it comes to you. >=0
Chirp: No, fuck that, I'm seein the moon NOW. *begins floating toward the window, then abruptly stops, turning back around - heads back toward the couch again* .........
Daisy: Wellll...?
Chirp: *sits down* .....That was a waste of my time. >=7 .... *twitch*
Luma X: (Ha, looks like the moon even got the Boo's nerves on a leash. ... I wonder if the other two have seen this yet...?) Alright, here goes the climax of the story. Try not to lose your sanity please, and keep all limbs inside the vehicle at all times. In other words, try not to spaz after the story has been told. ...Or DURING the story.
Chirp: Aw dangit. x7
*The Shadow Queen's Bedroom*
Zera: "Child?" ... Master, you think I'm your ... child?
SQ: Zera, no... dear, listen... I may have an uncouth method of punishing you, but you have to give me a break... I mean, I AM a demon queen from the dark depths - resurrected - but really, if I had any other followers who even accidentally disobeyed my orders, I probably would have killed them all. <=o ... Key word, probably.
Zera: Well... what makes me so special?
SQ: The fact that you are still in my presence, alive and in the flesh. Not to mention, on my bed. Anyone else would have gotten so far as kissing my feet as I sit on my throne. (Although I enjoy that as much as they would. Muahaha.)
Zera: So... you actually like me?
SQ: Zera, you are the only servant that I have kept here for so long, ...You're a perfect fit for serving me. Your voice, your faith, your devotion to me, even the very way you complete your tasks. I wouldn't want a lazy, eyesore, incompetent excuse for an imbacile ...trancing around failing hideously at every order I give them. It makes me look like a bad queen. I am bad, but not in that particular manner. You make me look like ... something far greater than a mere queen.
Zera: ...You have a fondness only for the way I do your bidding, and you don't really care about me?
SQ: That's not it at all! <=o ...It's hard trying to express your true feelings when all you have to work with in your heart is darkness. It's hard enough trying to explain to you that it IS difficult to explain these things to you. I'm hoping you'd be able to understand my point of view because all you have in your heart is ... love. ->>- (And that is one thing I don't have a fondness for.)
Zera: Oh, yeah, that. I have lots of love. ^^
SQ: *sigh* I don't think you understand... Let me put what I'm saying in terms that will confuse you into comprehending what it is I'm actually trying to tell you.
Zera: "Confuse?" =o?
SQ: Let's see... I don't even have to possess you or take control of your mind in order to make you follow my orders; my influence has complete control of you, you'd even make a great protégé ... as if you already kind of... weren't one in the first place. Not once have either of us turned our backs on each other, not that we'd have the desire to either. The reason we wouldn't is because we're so close, Zera. So... closely bonded, I mean. Like... a mother and daughter relationship.
Zera: =O...
SQ: Zera, you are like a daughter to me. Most mothers and daughters don't get along, I'm sure. But when they do, they form a bond that cannot be broken. Our bond is like that, only much stronger. This is ... a bond between a Queen... and her Servant.
Zera: Master...
SQ: My existence has apparently given your life meaning. You wish to serve me in every possible way, and in the best way you can, and I didn't even have to harm you into making you do it... I'm now unsure of whether or not it is my influence, or just my presence that sparks such an insane desire in your heart to serve me. Zera, I envy you sometimes... if anything, I should be asking you what makes me so special.
Zera: Your Highness... I think I now know what you mean.
SQ: Really?
Zera: Yes... I've had the same thoughts about you too Master. I don't know what unknown force drives me to serve you so diligently, but I really enjoy pleasing you.
SQ: (Zera, that sentence came off a bit too... strong, don't you think you can die down on the emotion a little bit?)
Zera: No... I really love expressing myself... and I enjoy it even more so now that I'm in your presence, letting you know how I truly feel.
SQ: Zera, finally you understand!
Zera: I... hm?
SQ: Everything you are saying is exactly what I've been trying to tell you my dear!
Zera: You mean it...?
SQ: Absolutely, yes!
Zera: Master!
SQ: Zera...
Zera: Hold that thought, I'm going to make this moment even better. *gets up*
SQ: What are you... Oooh, I see now. Excellent idea Zera.
Zera: *opens the curtains* There... Now we can enjoy the full moon... togeth... er. Oh... no...
SQ: W-what's wrong? *also gets up*
Zera: N-nothing! Nothing at all. *shuts the curtains* (What is this feeling... it's bad... I think I feel my demonic Nega form catching up to me.) *clutches her head, stumbling back to the bed*
SQ: Zera! Is something the matter? Please, speak to me!
Zera: It's nothing... really Master, it isn't something you should concern yourself wi-
SQ: But your existence means everything to me!
Zera: *gasp*
SQ: Your mental stability and health are vital to me! Without you, I am nothing! I ... need... y-you.
Zera: Ohh... that is the sweetest thing you've ever said... you really make me happy, Master.
SQ: Don't you ever leave my side...
Zera: *gasp* (She told me the exact same thing, that same day I gained my powers...) My heart is ... it's pounding ever so quickly. Something is... something is...
SQ: I'm deeply sorry for flustering your heart in that manner, have I said too much?
Zera: No... something is wrong, something is amiss Master. I can feel it.
SQ: A disturbance in the force? (Oh god why did I just make that reference... xT)
Zera: Uh... well, yes. Why can't you feel it?
SQ: I think my psyche has been consumed by too much ... of the "L" word. I feel much MUCH less darkness in my heart than usual... yes, something is wrong.
Zera: By the "L" word... you couldn't mean "love," could you? =o?
SQ: Yes... the fact that I have less darkness in my heart troubles me, and it isn't because it's been consumed by love either... this is a once-in-a-lifetime occasion, this feeling that I have... Indeed, something could be wrong.
Zera: So... you feel it?
SQ: Not yet, but... The fact that something is amiss is stirring the amount of darkness inside me. It ... flusters me, slightly enrages me... it makes me put my guard up, I suppose... Now I'm starting to get angry. Muahahaha... it's been a while since I felt this way... I know a damn good fight is coming my way, and I don't think I've ever been more ready in my life. >
Zera: (Uh-oh... there goes Master... But... the moon, it was a color complementing my Nega form... Gah!-) Agh! *clutches her chest, nearly falling face-first onto the floor*
SQ: *catches her just in time, laying her back on the bed* This is terrible... On the night I tell you all about how I feel, ...you couldn't be dying, could you?
Zera: No... It's my Nega form... f-fighting back... Even if I did perish, I would do so in your arms, Master...
SQ: <
Zera: Also, at least we got to say how we both felt about each other, right?
SQ: ....Yes.
Zera: Master, open the curtains... Look at the moon...
SQ: *hurries to the curtains, forcing them open* ... 8O WHAT IN BLAZES?!! *stumbles back with widened eyes, gasping*
Zera: The corrupted moon you see now... it is the same one my Nega form saw on the night that I fought... "The Black Cat."
SQ: ... The ... Black who? ...
Zera: I know you don't wish to remember. The dark mage girl with the whip...
SQ: . . . . NO... You couldn't mean...? <=O
