Of Smoke and Shadows (Revived, but closed)

Sat Jul 03, 2004 2:38 pm

((Everyone remembers where we left off, right? If not, here's a very breif summary.

Everyone had found their past selves, and now we were going off to fight the shadow thing.

Let's pick this thing back up!))

Yin raced ahead of the others, her heart beating madly. The air was slowly cooling past its normal point. The gates were closing...Yin narrowed her eyes and let out a vehement roar that echoed around the frigid air.

Rahza enjoyed the evening air... it always held a promise that lingered just before him, tantalizingly mysterious. However, tonight there was no time to have fun.

He looked ahead in mock concentration, trying to stop himself from doing some tricks.
His mood had improved greatly since that morning, but he still carried a heavy heart that threatened to balloon whenever he saw Yin.

So, he stayed well back, watching her from afar. It was much safer that way.

((CAMERON!!! What? No... I don't automatically think of Cameron when I see your name... what are you talking about?!
Umm... basically, there was a lot of meandering about, then there was this black thing, then there was a shroom trip thing where everyone saw their past lives and stuff... then there was a part where Rahza basically turned into a blog for me... O.o
And... lots of flying around.))

((Now the gate into the shadow world thing is opening, and the dragons have to get in.))

Yin cast a wary glance around. As she flew closer to the bank of black clouds, the air pressure grew heavier. She streamlined her body and forced her way through, gasping for breath...

[Er-... okay, 162. O_o.

Anyway, thanks... I'll lean back for a little while to watch other RPers... RPing... =P Then I'll post my bit.]

Rahza saw the gate just over the horizon, and sped up. It was closing rapidly, so he dove to increase his speed. He ducked and darted through the trees until... he had made it!

The gate was barel open. He backed away slightly, then slammed his full weight into it to budge it open just a little more.
"Ladies... first."

Emra slowly opened her eyes, it was strange. She bounded up, she was herself! No more past life, she stumbled around searching for others. She found them. "Rahza!" she screamed against the wind, waving her arms like a maniac.

Yin pushed forward into the blackness, the pressure almost blinding her. She struggled onward through the clouds, feeling the way with the long whiskers that extended from her muzzle, her body nothing more than a speck in the great chasm...

And suddenly it was over. The pressure was gone, and Yin was yet again a girl in tattered clothing, standing on...what was she standing on? And where was anything? The other dragons were near; she could sense it, but the darkness pressed in on her eyes in all directions.

Emra looked down at herself. The colliding of past and present hadn't been good for her clothes, nor had the collison with the shadow. "Oh well" she said to herself softly. It was then she also caught sight of Yin, she ran forward, "Yin!" she screamed- "I'm me!"

[So, has Emra gone through the gate, or what? O.o]

((No...she is just around it!))

Rahza looked down at Emra, a mixture of frustration, exhaustion and fear swelling just behind his eyes.
"Get in... now! I don't know where we're going, I don't know why we're going, but we're going, damnit, and I'll be damned if I don't let you in first!"

He flew back a little and slammed himself against the gate again. It budged open a little more. A drop of blood began to trickle down his forehead, and the air grated his throat with every breath.
"Please... hurry!"

[Ditto. I understand if you don't want me to rejoin, but hey, it never hurts to ask again.]
