Kendall paced around the living room, waiting, when Luxcious interrupted him. | “Should we not be leaving now? Is it not the time of reckoning?” He asked | “No my friend it is not yet time, we must wait a little longer.” Kendall responded | A few minutes later lightning struck, it’s prideful roar echoing throughout Paris. Kendall and the others raced outside, they had formulated a plan hours ago. The safest place to go to was Notre Dame, the splendor of Paris. | ———————————————————————————————————— | [b][i]The Harrowing[/b][/i] | ———————————————————————————————————— | The civilians huddled together inside the cathedral, close to the fire. A potent, ever present, fear raced through all of them. The clerics that managed this cathedral welcomed in civilians who had to take shelter from the storm. Now the doors were locked and all huddled together in fear. Then there was a knock on the giant wooden doors. The ever present reminder that there were people who still had to be tended to. One of the clerics hastily unbolted the lock and opened the door allowing the trio inside. Kendall immediately took a seat at the center of group of civilians. | “Now I am aware of what is currently going on. This storm has caused all of you to run to safety in fear and panic. Yet I tell you not to fear this storm, don’t let the fear that it brings control you. This storm will only be getting worse and worse so I suggest that the clerics take everyone down to the basement. There you will be safe from the wrath of the storm. The three of us will stay here and guide others to safety.” Kendall stated | The clerics rushed everyone down into the safety of the basement. Kendall and the others stayed behind, planning what to do next. Meanwhile, the storm raged on above them, growing worse and worse by the second. | ———————————————————————————————————— | [b][i]Ashes To Ashes[/b][/i] | [spoiler]Music for Part 2: https://dev.invidio.us/watch?v=8PFzUXwoIAE[/spoiler] ———————————————————————————————————— | The three of them went to sleep by the warmth and safety of the fireplace. They could not formulate the next step in the plan. Lightning then struck the roof of he cathedral and set it ablaze. The noxious scent of smoke filled the halls ad rooms of the cathedral. Kendall woke with a start, this in turn caused Luxcious to also wake. Silas was the last to get up, he somehow slept a little longer than the other two. The three of them looked at the fireplace, it was empty, the fire was gone. Their best course of action was to reach the roof, and so they hastily climbed the burning rafters of the cathedral. Once outside they found that it was snowing, though they quickly ignored this unusual phenomenon. The fire started to consume the building as they rushed across the rooftop. The supports of the bells broke causing the bells to fall to the ground with a great clang. | ———————————————————————————————————— | [b][i]Dust To Dust[/b][/i] | ———————————————————————————————————— | The organ was seemingly playing itself, a horrific tune echoing through the dark night sky. Then the fire raced towards them, it had gained shape, that of a tall spindly man. Armed with two blades in both of its clawed hands it rushed towards the trio with ferocity. Silas rushed at it with equal force but he was knocked aside. Kendall tried to end the horror but was severely wounded in his chest area. Luxcious was the last one remaining, and with a stroke of his wrist, drew his blade and charged towards his fiery foe. The two clashed through the night, fire meeting cold steel. The whole thing was a spectacle to behold, then in the confusion, the demon struck Luxcious down. He was out of of options, his rope was at its end. Then lightning struck, and the demon was sent off the roof of the cathedral and into the streets below. Luxcious looked up to see who had dealt the fatal blow. His eyes met that of Barichi’s who was now brandishing a blade made from dark thorns. He lifted his master up off the ground and the two of them walked towards Kendall and Silas. Before they could truly reunite the demon reappeared, but this time it was larger, the entirety of the flames that had consumed Notre Dame had fused with it. There was only one way out of the one, and that was to banish the beast back to whence it came. | ———————————————————————————————————— | [spoiler]RP: - Gear: everything you have on you - Location: wherever the heck you currently are - Goal: help Kendall, Silas, Luxcious, and Barichi fend off the Ashen Daemon (Name Is Currently A Work In Progress)[/spoiler] |
