A figure stood on a building, watching the city from afar, bearing a sad expression. The human female had long, black hair that reached between her shoulder blades. Her eyes were a startling blue, and she had a lithe build. She wore a gray t-shirt and blue jeans.
She bit her lip as she realized what night it was, her eyes watering over.
"It's Halloween..." She stated, shoulders sagging.
I wish I could be around people again. I wish I could be normal. But instead, I'm cursed with this... disease... She thought, clenching her hand.
Suddenly, a small rumble echoed through the sky, and a light drizzle began to pour over the abandoned area of the city, dampening the girl's hair. She then began to weep, throwing her torso on the edge of the roof.

There was a flash and the girl was lifted into the air. She was held in the arms of a robot. THe robot landed and put the girl down on the ground. THe machine looked at the girl with piercing green eyes. "...Life...is too precious to throw away girl." the says.

"No matter what the curse or ailment one possesses." an emerald dragon continued, as a half-dragon sat on his shoulders, rubbing a strange silver-and-tan liquid on her left wing... what was left of it anyways.
"Besides, that's my house you were standing on, and I'll be damned if someone dies in front of or on my house if I could do something about it."

((I never said she jumped...))
Lora blinked, open-mouthed and wide-eyed.
A robot and two dragons did NOT just land in front of me... I'm imagining things... She thought to herself frantically.
She blinked and rubbed her eyes.
They're still there... what the f***? She thought, blinking again.
"Um... sorry if I was trespassing on your house. I'll go now." She muttered awkwardly.
She then jumped over the three and made a mad dash for the nearest ladder.
"I'M GOING F***ING NUTS!" She yelled to herself.

((Didn't jump...D'oh!! You're words confused me at times -_-))
The robot looked at the girl running away. "What the hell is her problem?", He grunts. He wants to go after the girl, but he restrains himself. Its a girl...prolly some emo chick. He crosses his arms and mutters something.

(What a minute... What???)
Lora, however, soon found out that she wasn't getting any farther in the direction she was going. Looking down, she realized she was now floating in mid air.
"I never said you had to leave, though. I'm not mad that you are 'trespassing' as you put it." Solranous sighed. "I was normal once too, but at least you can find your difference for most of the year. If you need a home, you can stay in my house, and I'm willing to take the risk every full moon. Yes, I know you are a werewolf. I happen to be telepathic."
"You may be different, but it doesn't mean that you have to shun yourself from everybody, There are others who are also different from the rest of humanity, you can find shelter with someone else." Myrr spoke, looking up from her left wing, which was slowly regrowing.
"Oh, and you are imagining nothing" Solranous added in as an after thought.

Lora blinked again, almost on the verge of a mental breakdown. She started thrashing about in the dragon's telepathic grip, but to no avail.
"So what? You may be like that 24/7, but at least you're in control! If you're telepathic, then you know what I've done!" She screamed, tears rolling down her cheeks.
"I killed my family, my friends, and everyone I knew! I'm a monster! I don't deserve to live! Just put me out of my misery now!" She screamed, legs thrashing.

"I did not know that, for I rarely invade another's privacy. But all beings who draw breath and are sincere in their nature deserve a chance at life..." Solranous paused, a tear slipping down his face.
"And your wrong, I'm not always in control. I try to resist, but every now and then, my dragon side gets loose from its bonds... The results can be devastating. While I may not be killing those close to me, do you think you could handle the feeling of an overwhelming sadness from hundreds, if not thousands of people, as the scream with their last breath as their bodies are destroyed into unrecognizable black corpses? I've gone through that a few times, and each night I silently weep for those unfortunate people, destroyed ruthlessly by a monster I could not control at that time. That is why I'm trying to be generous to everyone I meet. To try to 'clean the slate' as it may be." Solranous stopped again, trying to shove away those memories.
"If anyone is the monster here, its me." he finished, barely managing to hold in his tears. A warrior he may be, but even warrior's can be overcome by sadness.

Lora stopped thrashing as the grip on her lessened, and she dropped to the ground.
"I-I'm sorry to hear that. But frankly, you don't seem like that to me." She murmured.
She stepped before Solranous, and stated,
"But that rarely happens, it sounds like. You manage to control yourself most of the time. And if that was you I saw last week defend the city against that white hedgehog-looking thing, then you manage to do good while you're at it. There's no need to be ashamed of that." She stated.
As the robot turned around, a voice asked him,
"Are you not the Shin Getter Robo?"

Ignoring the voice that spoke to the robot, Solranous simply scoffed.
"That hedgehog thing? All I did was distract him long enough for the real hero of that day to finish him off... Or so I thought. I take no credit for a fight I barely participated in. And you would think differently if you were there and managed to survive. And... Thank you... You believe I should not be ashamed of my problems, just as I believe you deserve the chance to live despite your condition. You are right in the fact that I can control myself most of the time, but it is when it does get loose that all-"
"Watch-" Myrr started.
Too late, Solranous and Myrr were both blown away by an orb of red energy, causing them to shriek. Meanwhile, a familiar, unwanted voice spoke, "Perfect, two 'birds' with one 'stone.'"
(OOC: Yeah, I had to do that. I assume you know who has just joined in?)

Lora looked up to see the same white hedgehog-anthro standing there, his palm smoking.
"You d***!" She yelled.
She suddenly started to grow slightly and sprout hair as her features became more feral. She now had a thin layer of white fur covering everything except her stomach, most of her face, the top of her feet, and the back of her hands. Her ears had pointed, and her hands and feet sprouted claws. Her teeth had sharpened a LOT.
She ran and jumped onto the hedgehog, slamming her fist into his face. She bit down on his arm, drawing blood, then grabbed him and threw him across the roof of the warehouse. Before Nazo could even draw his wits, a large chunk of rubble slammed into his face.

Nazo growled, prying the piece of rock off his face as his wounds healed. He gripped Lora's neck and began to strangle her.
"That was a very foolish move, attacking a god."
"I may not be in the mood to fight, but I AM NOT LETTING YOU KILL HER!" Solranous roared.
(OOC: Cue "Live and Learn")
The emerald dragon rocketed at Nazo, headbutting him. Nazo was forced to let go of Lora as he was flung back. Solranous pursued relentlessly, hammering the hedgehog into the ground. There, he proceeded to pummel Nazo, occasionally throwing his fire breath in for good measure.
"Grah! I'll kill you for this!" Nazo yelled, blasting the dragon off of him, before punching him at Lora. He knew the dragon would recover in time, so he put more behind it.
"Chaos Control!" Nazo called, "warping" in front of Solranous and kicking him even faster. The dragon didn't recover this time, and slammed directly into Lora, plowing both of them into the ground, with Lora on the bad end of Solranous' spines. Nazo "warped" and hovered over the two of them, snickering at how easily they were 'beaten.'

Lora coughed up blood as one of the spines had impaled her through her stomach. She slowly pulled herself off as her fur started to spread along her frame as she grew slightly again. She was now the epitomy of werewolf; her face was that of a wolf's, she had large claws on her feet and hands, a tail sprouting from the base of her spine. Her jeans were now tattered shorts, and her shirt was mostly intact.
She gave Nazo such a feral look that even the master of negative emotions was held in place. She rushed forward, despite the blood oozing forth from her stomach nonstop. She slammed the anthro in the face, breaking the cartilidge in his nose. Before he could fly backwards, she grabbed him by the ankle and slammed him into the roof, splintering the concrete.
She back up, and popped her back. The, turning to the sky, she let loose a haunting howl that tapped into the very psychy of her opponent, injecting as much fear into his frame as his mind could comprehend.

This, unfortunately, did nothing to stop Nazo, as a black aura started to form around him, some of his white fur turning red. (OOC: Uh oh...) When Lora gazed back at Nazo, she was absolutely shocked. Nazo was staring at her, dead in the eye, without so much as a flinch.
"I thank you for improving my strength ten-fold, but it does not mean I will spare you. You didn't know, but I grow more powerful off of negative emotions. Fear happens to be one of the strongest." Nazo hissed as he formed a black energy sphere. With no remorse, he fired a beam at Lora... Only to have it intercepted by Solranous and his telekinesis. Straining greatly, Solranous managed to shove the beam away from both Lora and himself.
"Humph. Chaos Control." Nazo said, warping behind Lora. He grabbed her tail and yanked on it, pulling Lora off her feet, before slamming her down own the opposite side of the ground and stomping her face into it. Under the effects of Chaos Control, this all happened in one hundreth of a second.
"What the!?" Solranous screeched as he faced Nazo, who blasted him in the face with another beam of negative energy. The emerald dragon was thrown back, knocked out by the beam.

Sedian saw the group before him. It was a problem. But nothing his God could not handle.
"Great one, grant me a servent to accomplish thy will!" he said, but not loud enough to be heard by the others. Then, performing his dark ritual he summoned a dark young. He had no control over the beast, but his God had given him the creature in the midst of the others. Even the planet killer could not kill the dark youn easily, especially with its dark protective magic.
Sedian ducked behind cover and waited for his opportunity.
The beast appeared howling and thrashing amidst the group. Before anyone knew what was happening,Nazo had been sent flying through the air. Myrr and Lona had been sent skidding across the roof by a flailing tendril, and Shin Getter Robo and Solranous were hoisted into the air by thrashing tentacles. Hell had broken loose, and it was about to get worse.
-o-o-o-
Arthur knew what had happened before those in the middle of it did. A force rivalling that which he served was at work. Soon the air around him was filled with indistinguishable whisperings which Arthur seemed to listen to. Then he headed towards the group.
-o-o-o-
In the midst of the dead xenomorphs Thanatos' body lay still, the noises and dull having gone out hours earlier. As it had been for hours, all was still. But not for long. With a sudden jerk, Thanatos came back to life, as though resurrected. His light burned again, his damage had been repaired, and he was ready to return.
He decided to track the warriors he had fought "alongside" earlier; if nothing else, he could challenge them to combat for entertainment. Hopefully, though, they were neck deep in trouble again, and he could help fight their way out.
