OOC: okay, so let's start a story now, probably one like the one TD proposed How about traveling to another dimension (or a distant land) in order to establish relations with/conquer a nation? We may be alone in the world, but there are other worlds, and if "we" befriend a faction of extraterrastrial creatures (or hidden terastial ones) they will help "us" with the rebirth.

OOC: Okay, nobody's starting anything and I had a really random idea one day and i started writing it in class today, so here
It is another boring day at the Castle. The so called Golden Age wasn't as exciting as most of them had envisioned. Days were long and filled with nothing but sitting around and eating pineapple, although that wasn't necessarily a bad thing. This day however was going to turn up a surprise for everyone, especially Chris.
Chris was walking down the halls to get a few more slices of pineapple when he heard a loud bang from a connecting hallway. He was shocked out of his boredom induced dream state and ran for the noise. When he reached there he saw a human sized demon that appeared to be made of raw flesh, that or it had lost an extreme amount of skin... It had long fangs that were caked in dried blood, the color of its slitted eyes. It seemed able to stand on two feet, though it also used all four. It's arms and feet were ended in claws that could viciously tear any human to shreds of flesh and bits of bone. It's tail was longer than it's body and had a row of spines running down along it, before ending in a trio of serrated claws that resembled another shredding arm. It's most noticeable features, however, were the large black demon wings folded on it's back. These were the only non-red part of it. Everything else was either red, white, or a shade of fleshy pink.
The two stared each other down form opposite ends of the hall. The demon looked at Chris quizzically, almost with a look of surprise on it's face. Chris stared too; the months of lethargy and empty days had dulled his normal reactions and instead of quickly unsheathing his sword and attacking the intruder without a second thought, or first for that matter, he instead pondered on what exactly it was that he was looking at, and if he should go find someone else. This slip up of his nearly cost him his life as the demon lunged at him with unprecedented speed. Had Nailah not come to investigate the noise she had also heard, he would surely have been ripped in two.
Nailah raised a wall of black ice between Chris and the demon, and ran to his side as he realized exactly what happened. He quickly came to his senses and pulled his sword out. The demon looked annoyed upon hitting the wall of ice, but rammed its long tail ended with spikes into it and ripped it apart. Chris sent a bolt of black lightning through the rain of ice crystals, melting them as it passed through the air. It collided with the demon head on, but only pushed it back slightly, and left a dent in its already bloody looking exterior.
What Chris didn't count on was for the demon to have some sort of hyper accelerated healing factor, as the scratch it received healed up in moments as it jumped at them with lightning speed. Chris dove to the left and Nailah to the right and the demon flew past them. It corrected itself however and jumped at them again in a second. Chris was just barely able to hold the demon's claws and its crushing teeth back. The demon snapped its jaws in his face, and Chris could feel blood shaken from its mouth into his face.
Nailah rushed over as fast as she could and summoned multiple spikes of ice to erupt from the floor and impale the demon to the wall. She summoned more, and then covered it in a complete prison of shining ice. Chris got up and looked into the prison at the demon contained inside. He had never seen a demon like that in his entire 400 years in the Underworld. He was also wondering how it had gotten into the Castle... had it teleported? New questions were rising in his mind constantly from being stimulated at last after ages of disuse, but they were all interrupted when the demon turned a slitted eye to him before the prison exploded, sending dagger-like shards of ice in every direction. Chris was able to grab onto Nailah and become intangible to protect them.
When it was safe, or safer than previously, Chris let go of Nailah and slashed at the demon with his sword. The demon shrugged it off and knocked both of them away and far down the hall with its tail. It crawled on all fours to them and picked them both up with its tail. It looked at Chris first, thoughtfully. Chris could have sworn it grinned before dropping him to the floor. It them pinned Nailah to a wall with the three spikes on its tail, two were on her sides, one went up between her breasts and its sharp point just barely resting on her throat. The demon was slowly crushing her with its tail, but Chris didnt know that, nor did he need to know that, as he got up as quickly as he could and sliced off the end of the demon's tail.
The demon screeched a roar that must have been heard throughout the entire Island, though more out of frustration than out of pain. It was ready to rip Chris' chest open when there was a loud bang down the hall. Chris looked and saw an explosion of black flames flying at them. Chris stepped back and Nailah, now recovered, created a dome of ice with which to protect them. Chris didn't even wait for Nailah to lower the dome, he blasted his own way out and attacked the demon simultaneously with lightning. It turned to him before being pummeled with a barrage of tiny fireballs. Chris had to cover his face with his sleeve and wait for the smoke to dissipate.
When he looked back he saw a smoking pile of flesh and bone slowly increasing in size and healing. Chris stepped towards it, but someone put their arm out and held him back. He was a young man, appearing to be in his twenties, with black hair, and green eyes. he wore a light black cloak with many knives and chains showing from every angle, and a book securely fastened to his belt.
A mere moment after Chris glimpsed the new man, a power blast of dark energy hit them both and threw them across the hall again. Chris was getting really sick of this and fired a powerful bolt of lightning down the hall, all in futility however, as he had not noticed the demon had run off and the other man was running down the hall to where it last was. He heard yet another bang behind him, and he saw a black haired woman when he turned. She looked surprised to see him, but disregarded him and rushed off to the other man. Chris thought she looked a lot like Nailah, only a more serious air about her, more experienced.
Chris went to Nailah and together they approached the two who had appeared as they were busy talking with each other.
"Hey, who are you people? What are you doing here? What was that thing?" Chris asked quickly. The other two just looked at him, thinking on whether to answer or not. They chose not to.
"We can't talk about that now, we have to go find it, it's running loose in the Castle and we need to make sure it doesn't run into anyone," the man said before they both left to go searching. Chris was left with Nailah, confused. Did that man know this was the Castle?

There was a sudden static in the air, the dragon could feel it. It had a seductive touch to it, it was something he had been addicted to for much of his life--demonic magic. It felt strong, so whatever played host to this power was in the castle.
Drer'Ahv blinked his eyes, returning them from their normal pupil-less state to his human form's catlike eyes. Yes, it was certainly in the castle, and very close. He slid off the bed and stood up, albeit awkwardly.
There was a lurid bellow and then he felt two intense blasts of magic. The first blast still seemed to resonate in his head, a siren song. He bit back on the addiction screaming to be fed and walked briskly out of the room.
He burst into a sprint once he got into the corridor, running in the direction of the attack.

Chris and Nailah figured that they could ask questions later, and for them to be answered they at least needed to find the other two who would be able to answer them. They both set off down the halls and it wasn't long before they found the demon bounding through them. It seemed to be heading for the Council Chambers...
Chris got it's attention with a blast of dark energy and Nailah summoned a couple spears of ice to float in the air above her shoulders. Chris was about to charge at it with his sword when a black fireball flew out from behind them and collided with the demon head on, creating a large cloud of black smoke and flame.
Chris turned around and was immediately grabbed by the other man.
"Get Nailah out of here, now," he said gruffly, before pushing Chris away and turning his attention back on the demon which had just crawled out of the flame and was taunting him.
Chris walked slowly back to Nailah and told her what he was just ordered to do. He was thinking on whether to attack the demon or the man when the other woman came out of nowhere and took Nailah by the arm and began dragging her away.
"Hey, let go of her!" Chris yelled as he ran down to them "She'll be fine, I'm just taking her somewhere safe," the woman replied "Safe? How do i know she'll be safe with you?"
He got his answer almost immediately when the demon noticed what was going on. It teleported into the air directly in the way of Nailah and the other woman. Her reaction was almost instantaneous though. A wave of her hand summoned an enormous spiraling spike of black ice erupted from one wall, impaled the demon in midair, and imbedded itself in the other.
The other woman and Nailah fled out quickly down the halls. Chris looked up at the demon as it smashed its tail through the ice and freed itself. It quickly turned it's attention to him, but the other man stepped in again. He raised a hand out and time seemed to slow down and the space around them began to warp. The demon that had jumped at the two was being slowed in midair, before being finally pushed forcefully into the opposite direction, before everything went back to normal. OOC: Shall edit this laterz

After months of grief, Dante felt something in the air, charged, almost like electricity, but very different...
It's demonic magic!
"Fuck..."
Dante quickly picked up his sword and gatling gun, as well as two handguns he had made especially for him. All 3 guns equipped with paradox machines that create extra ammunition every time a shot is fired, ensuring unlimited ammo.
"Who's in danger?"
Not telling you yet... You'll find out when you get there.

The other man didn't leave the demon the opportunity to right itself and leapt at it. He pulled a black katana out from behind his back and slashed at the demon quickly. The demon ignored the slashes as it got up and, to Chris' surprise, transformed. I turned into a more humanoid form, that stood on two legs. Its face looked like a smaller version of the previous form, but its body was no longer fleshy looking, but was covered in black armor that had spikes protruding in many directions.
The demon, in it's new form, pulled an ornate longsword from nowhere. The moment it came out, the room darkened slightly, and a chill ran through. The two clashed in a swordfight, but it was clear the demon had the advantage and knocked the other man across the room with a single stroke. Chris decided to leave the sidelines and leapt in with his own katana ready. He fought well, better than the other man, thought he didn't expect to be less skilled than him. He was however having difficulty with the fight against the demon, it seemed to know his every move, and blocked with ease.
Furthermore, the demons sword seemed to be enchanted, Chris could feel his energy being drained the moment the sword appeared. His strength was withering; he wouldnt be able to keep this up. When he felt he was about to collapse, Nailah and the other woman reappeared, along with the other man who had recovered from his sling across the hall. They all hit the demon with a mix of fire and ice. The woman and the other man put their attention to the demon while Nailah grabbed Chris' arm and pulled him to the end of the hall.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Chris asked "I need to tell you something," she replied hurriedly "But there's a demon in the Castle, it's my duty to protect it," "Vincent and Nailah can handle it," she answered "Who's Vin.... did you say Nailah?...." he said as he looked at her with pure confusion on his face

Sakoda Sat in his Room , studying th records HebrewB had left. Some of them had only recently come out of their magical warding (he could have attempted breaking the spells by force but had refrained from it for seeral reasons) and its their where everything from disturbing to outright unbelieveable.
Hopfully will expand ...
HB EDIT: Do you mind if we trade ideas for this one, Sakoda? No offence, just want to make sure it stays true to the character.
