★ Prompts

1) Arrival
[Before you knew it, the world you were in had gone dark. Why or even how wasn't exactly clear, but the moment you wake up, you find that you are not where you were before. Instead there appears to be a small village, but it's dark and the people appear to not be leaving there houses anytime soon. Why weren't they? Perhaps looking around might wield results.]

2) Monster Attack
[Just outside the village creatures appear to be wondering around. If you come too close they will attack. Sharp claws swinging towards whoever crosses there path. Avoid or counter?]

3) What the hell?!
[In the woods, if one were to wonder further enough they would come across a circle and a bunch of cloak people, kneeling down and bowing down toward the center. Whatever was going on it was certainly odd.]

4) Wildcard

[Well...that was certainly something he never expected to see outside of television shows..What the hell were they even worshipping anyway? Either way it was worrying as he started to take a few steps back. He didn't want to fight, but he really, really didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing.]

I'll... just be going then. You keep doing that creepy worshipping thing and I'll mosey on off.

Arrival

[David’s senses immediately tell him he isn’t where she should be. His home is gone, his forest is gone and his family is gone. His shoulders tense and he quickly stands taking a defensive position. New smells fill his nose and his alarm continues to rise.]

What is this place?

[He’s used to talking to himself though he wishes that someone might answer. It isn’t like anywhere he’s seen and his senses are screaming for him to return to his territory.]

Monster Attack

[Well this is just great. He is used to interacting with animals but he isn’t used to having strange shadows attack. He shifts without much forethought, his shirt and pants quickly removed since he doesn’t want to have to try and find new clothes in a place that he doesn’t know.

Anyone walking by will see a rather large wolf fighting with a shadow, claws and fang clashing together in a frenzy of blows. It currently doesn’t look like there is a clear winner.]

Wild Card: Dead woods makes me sad.

[David is a werewolf but above that he’s a park ranger. He protects parks, specifically his, but all trees and forests should be protected. Seeing the dead curdled wood in front of him pulls at his heart. A hand lightly rests on the dry bark his voice dropping to a soft and soothing tone.]

We’ll see you healed.

[He needs to get home but he can’t possibly leave with this forest in this state. Anyone walking past will see the man talking to the trees, telling them of his forest and all of the amazing things that live there.]

You know, I don't think talking to them will help you mosey on off.

[She points this out in a hushed tone, similarly backing away from the straight sight. Freya hopes that they are just ignored though she isn't sure they'd be so lucky. This world is freaky enough without a bunch of cloaked figures circling a stone.

She'd only followed the guy in front of her because he looked normal and like he might know how she got to this weird place. Not that she particularly minds but she likes the US. It's more normal.]

1.

[Her eyes part and the sound of a hard drive spinning echoes from the young girls head. She’s wearing unfamiliar clothes but they fit remarkably well. Slowly she rises from the ground, her bright eyes looking around at the scene before her.]

Chi? Chi!

[Chi doesn’t know where she is though she knows that it isn’t the city or Hideki’s apartment. At this point, her understanding of things is limited. She lets her hands lightly glide against the ground as if feeling it for the first time.]

Wild Card:

[ooc:If there is trouble... Chi is getting into it. She’s from early canon and wants to see what everything is.]

Arrival

[She blinks, reaching for what she knows. When nothing responses her eyes snap open.]

Where am I...

[Enis doesn't want to move, she doesn't want to risk it. she's no longer anywhere she knows and it's frightening. Startling blue eyes glance around her but she isn't moving.]

Monster Attack

[Shit.

Enis isn't designed to fight. She stares at the shadow and begins to slowly step back. Except it's to late, the dark eyes of the figure fix on her and begin creeping forward.

She takes a small step back but an unfamiliar fear grips at her heart.]

Wild Card:

[ooc: Hit me up with a prompt! She is without internet and is sad about this fact.]

What the hell?!

[Hatter stands and watches the proceedings with a passing interest. He's close to a tree and easy to miss for those who aren't looking for him.]

Blood hell. [He's gotten himself into something far beyond what he's comfortable with. He misses the simpler days when he'd run a tea shop and then discreetly help out those who needed it.]

This just means trouble.

1
[It isn't exactly the first time Gambit's ended up in a strange universe without explanation. The village looked promising, and so, with a swagger and a swish of his trenchcoat, he heads into town to see what's going on. There's a calm sort of undertone to the place that sets the Cajun ill at ease. It wouldn't be the first time he's encountered a telepath keeping people under their thrall before, either. Thanks, Dracula.]

2
[Stepping outside town wasn't the most brilliant plan. He was set upon by, something he couldn't identify, almost instantly. Gambit drew his quarterstaff, surging pure power into the length of the shaft as he did so, the metal thrumming with magenta energy, and swung at one, releasing the charge in an explosive burst as it connected with the creature's chest, sending it flying. Another was already coming up on his rear, though, and a grin slowly spread across his face. He didn't get much chance to let loose these days.]

[Yuffie watches from her perch, her legs dangling over the edges of the dead tree. A smirk tugs at her lips as dark eyes look down on Remy.]

Cute though the magenta wasn't very manly.

1
[Standing just a hair under six feet with immaculate complexion and raven hair, Thomas doesn't exactly fit in. Pair that with his nice slacks, stylishly unbuttoned white silk shirt and bare chest and you don't even have to guess that he's probably wandered here much the same as you have. To the casual observer, the stormy eyed man with the black curls seems completely at ease. Anyone who looks closer, though, will notice the tautness in the muscles across his shoulders and the subtle dart of his eyes as he watches the events around him. He'll flash a Rembrandt white smile at anyone passing by to get their attention, though, and, being an incubus makes that smile even more attractive.]

Hey, there. Any idea when the next bus to Chicago stops in? I need to see a guy about a thing.

[Freya has her hands shoved in her pockets, she woke up with her backpack but she still doesn't much care of this situation. She'd rather be somewhere she knows and of her own free will.]

If I knew I'd be on that bus with you.

[She looks over at him, her gray eyes shining curiously. He smells off and while he's very good looking he isn't completely human.]

How much do you think that ticket would be worth?

[The girl, not quite human, smells like the outdoors and springtime. It was an alluring scent, but mixed in was something wild, untamed and untamable that bubbled just beneathe the surface. It wasn't a scent wholly unfamiliar to him, but it was surprising in such a compact package. This girl was full of tricks yet to happen an no mistake.

The demon was curious, which made Thomas cautious. He'd keep his distance, for both their sakes.

His easy smile didn't falter has he responded.]

At least a lot of whatever this place calls currency, you know, if we're not having a communal psychic break.

[The village had been troubling, but more so their lack of concern about new arrivals than anything. Something was...off about this place, and he intended to figure out what. Spreading his search had proven interesting. As serene as the village had been, the wilderness beyond was as deadly, a stark contrast...or a means of control. Either way, he'd determined he'd find more answers beyond than within.

Crimson cape swirling about him as he strode purposefully into the wood, he came up short when he heard the chanting. It was haunting, and reminiscent of the followers of Sephiroth. A bad sign.

He watched the huddled figures for a moment, looking for some sign of intent, when Hatter spoke. He turned his head quickly at the sound, cursing himself for not noticing the man sooner. He makes a sound of agreement, rough and deep and looks back to the huddled worshipers.]

Trouble, indeed...but what kind?

[Freya’s eyes fix to Thomas with a curious stare. She begins to map the outline of his face as if to memorize the smallest features that have been etched into place. She’s sure that someone out there would kill to make a statue of this man.]

At least I have cute company.

[She smiles an easy smile though there is a small part of her that’s weary of the stranger. It’s instinct though it only adds caution to her curiosity.]

I’ll admit though. [The smile teasing her lips widens slightly.] I’m completely broke.

The kind I prefer to avoid.

[Hatter turns towards the man with a curiously confused expression. Red swirling cape? He’s clearly not with the house of cards though he certainly looks like one of their many hit man. Hatter, being the skilled pretender that he is, continues without missing a beat.]

I don’t think we’ve been introduced.

[Preliminary scans indicate un-mapped area beyond North America. As yet uncharted. No Record. No Record.

That was disconcerting. He broadened the range of his scanners, though not too far. It wasn't guaranteed that his batteries would even recharge here, though his body was designed to metabolize energy to recharge them from consumed food. Nothing could be assumed, not until more data was collected.

Warning. Hostile subjects detected. Spartan turned his attention toward the location of the disturbance and ran. His ground speed was over 60 mph, assuring he closed the distance in record time.

He noted the girl, a blip on his radar he would evaluate once the target was eliminated, and moved quickly between her and the encroaching threat. Only one target. He raised a fist, initializing his plasma projectors in his arm, and released a solid blast of fiery energy at the creature. It melted through the beast's body easily enough. As the monster's vital signs disappeared from his monitor, he nodded once, and turned to the girl, performing a health scan as his eye scanners moved up and down her form.

She was unharmed, but heavily modified. She was a cyborg. Noted. He nearly turned to go, but stopped himself. The caring voice of his fiance, Voodoo, reminding him to be polite. He offers the girl a smile, mechanical but intended to be gentle.]

Are you alright?

[Enis feels a chill wrap up her spine as the strange man turned towards her. She hadn’t seen him approach which had been startling enough before he decided to scan her. The momentary surprise fades and her eyes narrow at him.]

Doesn’t your scan answer that question?

[She’s annoyed, that’s rude and she’s not comfortable with people doing that sort of thing. She already is stuck with a reminder of her father implanted into her head.]

[Okay, so. This was new. Until about 10 minutes ago, Cat had been, as far as she knew, asleep and was just waking up to the smells of bacon and eggs in the most beautiful state in the Union, and now she was in her Tinkerbell pajamas wandering a strange village full of strange scents and...

...the girl stooped down to touch the ground like she's never seen it before might be the most interesting scent she's encountered so far. She takes a curious but tentative step forward, the grass beneath her feet moist.]

...Chi? Is that your name?

[All the new scents coupled with the fact that, as far as Cat knew she hadn't slept well last night after a great talk with a really adorable guy, was making her feel strange, disconnected. She hadn't forgotten David's scent, which she thought was either a really good sign or a really bad one, but she couldn't decide, and all the new scents around were distracting her from thinking about anything else.

She rounded a corner and the memory of his scent became much more pronounced. The moist grass squished beneath her bare feet as she moved closer and heard his mumble a question. David? David's here? Her steps quickened in the direction of his scent and his voice as she focused on something familiar even though it was almost as new as everything around her. Her Tinkerbell pajamas rustled around her legs as she moved, but she didn't care. She wasn't alone here.]

David...? Is that really you?

[Chi blinks, looking up at the girl with a curious stare.]

Chi is Chi’s name because Hideki said so.

[She replies in a cute voice, her tone suggestion complete and utter innocence.]

[The more Thomas looked around this place, the weirder it got. Case in point: once he got outside the village, cleverly (at least in his own mind) avoiding the monsters (of course there were monsters), he found a guy...talking to trees? Why not, right?

Thomas really just watches the guy, noticing a lot more than his casual stance lets on, and keeping himself hidden from the man (sort of) whose nostrils flare as the wind blows. He's scenting the wind, Thomas noticed. This guy wasn't all human, either. And then the wind shifted, carrying Thomas' scent to the Tree Speaker. Well, there went stealth.

He steps from behind the tree he's been using for cover, head tilted to the side in curiosity.]

So...you talk to dead trees often?

[Thomas had to agree with the guy. The further you got away from the creepy little cookie-cutter village, the weirder things got. Of course, whatever they're worshiping may be what's keeping everyone from wanting to leave, too. That's a thing. He's not equipped to interrupt a ritual, though. Not right now.

He knows a thing or two about power and belief, though. It's good to remember. He nod's at the guy's comment.]

You're right. It's probably best to clear out right now.

[Similarly her scent hasn’t left his thoughts, he is most certain that it never would. He doesn’t mind, he likes the scent and thinking back on it brings a comforting familiarity. It’s been only a few hours and he missed her and now he is most likely miles away from her.

Or that’s what he thought.

The wind shifts making her scent and her call reach him at the same time. His head snaps towards her, his lips tugging into a smile while his eyebrows furrowed slightly.]

Cat? You were taken too, are you okay?

[David looks over at Thomas, an unashamed smile teasing his lips. He can tell that Thomas isn’t what he seems and he isn’t about to take the man lightly, however it’s hard for David to switch away from his chill persona. His shoulder is leaning against the tree and as he spoke he crossed his arms, mostly to resist the urge to start petting the bark.

His own idiosyncrasy can stay his own.]

How do you know I wasn’t talking to myself?

[He does that often too.]

We haven't.

[Vincent's tone is curt and he doesn't shift his gaze from the gathered people in the clearing among the standing stones as he replies. He crosses his arms, the glinting bronze claw on his left arm catching the moonlight.]

It's probably best to be avoided.

[He looks up to her perch, the glow from his red and black eyes fading as his burst of kinetic energy is spent. A slight smirk tugs at his lips as he takes in the tiny ninja, rolling his shoulder in a shrug he collapses the staff and tucks it into a hidden pocket in his coat.]

Guess not, mon petite, and if I was a homme who cared 'bout that sorta thing, I might even be a little worried.
