O'Malley walked briskly out of the door, slamming it behind him. Spite sighed, staring at the floor and shaking his head in dismay.
Spite, stay if you want. Don't follow me. O'Malley stated.
Spite nodded, curling up into a 'circle'.
"What is wrong with him lately?" He muttered to himself.
*****
Barias and Reizus rubbed their heads, grumbling. They glared at eachother for a second before Barias whipped around and kicked Reizus onto stage, groaning. Barias grunted a laugh before walking over to his feet. Reizus stood up, brushing himself off and walking to the mike...
*****
Shive shuddered and moaned in his sleep, probably from nightmares.
*****
O'Malley stepped out into the abandoned street as snow began falling. He gave it an 'irritated' glance before sighing, his wing-jets igniting. He then launched off into the sky, screaming in mental anguish.
"Why couldn't I have been one of the mindless machines?! Why give me an AI?! WHY?!" He asked himself.
Off in the distance, an emicated figure wearing tattered black robes stared after the machine.
"I could make good use of him... the construct's will is nearly broken anway..." It hissed before vanishing.

Myrr sighed, walking over to Shive and putting a small kiss on his cheek before sitting down next to him.
Cynder blinked a few times at the strange turn of events between the three, before scuttling off to the side of the stage, picking a cane off of a near by rack, remembering vaguely that certain singers who did poorly were pulled off the stage by it. Personally, she didn't want to suffer if Reizus had a bad singing voice, not to mention everyone else...
"I hope it doesn't come to that, though."
Meanwhile Solranous had managed to get Kisara to lay down on the bed completely with minimal trouble. It was like Kisara was unaware of what the dragon was truely thinking of doing...
"You know... I'm doing for myself as much as I am for you, I was just pretending to be ignorant," Kisara noted, smirking at the dragon.
...There goes that theory. Well, she was still willing, so no foul there.
"Well if your only pretending to act like this, what the hell am I doing with stalling?" Solranous grinned deviously. He franch kissed her again, all the while edging her shirt up. Tonight could very well be a night of passion...

((Song is 'Pieces' by Sum 41))
Reizus sighed before grabbing the mike. He took in a deep breath before singing decently,
"I tried to be perfect
but nothing was worth it.
I don't believe it makes me real.
I thought it'd be easy
but no one believes me.
I meant all the things I said.
If you'd believe it's in my soul,
I'd say all the words that I know,
just to see if it would show
that I'm trying to let you know-
that I'm better off on my own.
This place is so empty-
My thoughts are so tempting-
I don't know how it got so bad.
Sometimes it's so crazy,
but nothing can save me,
but it's the only thing that I have.
If you'd believe it's in my soul,
I'd say all the words that I know,
just to see if it would show-
that I'm trying to let you know,
that I'm better off on my own.
I tried to be perfect,
it just wasn't worth it.
Nothing could ever be so wrong.
It's hard to believe me,
it never gets easy.
I guess I knew that all along.
If you'd believe it's in my soul,
I'd say all the words that I know-
just to see if it would show,
that I'm trying to let you know...
that I'm better off on my own."
*****
Shive's noises stopped as he unconsciously snuggled up next to Myrr. Calvin bounded off next to Spite, to leave the two to themselves.
*****
O'Malley stood on the edge of town, staring at the city's lights. His eye narrowed as he turned his back to the city, fists clenching.
"goddamn organics... all they care about are themselves and their benefit." He growled heartlessly.
Inside, however, O'Malley's confusion and pain had increased greatly, as he stalked off into the desert...

Cynder glanced at the cane she held, shrugged, and tossed it away, seeing there was no need for it. The wyrmling sighed, going back to her chair where the bottle of apple cider she sipped off of every now and then rested.
-----------------------------------
Myrr smiled down at Shive, getting the exact result she wanted.
-----------------------------------
Solranous growled, He and Kisara were right were they wanted each other.
"Oh lord... Sol-Solranous... ha..."
Kisara was panting, now that the dragon was 'having his way with her.' And mostly because she was letting him. The feeling she got from his scales brushing against her now bare skin was almost indescribeable, not that she wanted it to be, but the point still stands.
"I don't... know if I-I can take much... much more of this fore play..." she managed to gasp out.
"A pity, I just can't get enough of your sweet taste." Solranous purred in her mind, making that devious smirk obviously apparent.
"Y-You little... Ah... Oh... forget it... ha..."
The dragon smiled again, dabbing his tounge out again for another taste.
(OOC: So... You've got a hint of exactly what Solranous was up to when he pulled that dissappearing act, eh?)

((o_0 ... yes... I think I get the hint...))
Shive suddenly snorted and jerked awake, sitting up and glancing around groggily.
"Ugh... I should... probably head back to my place... need sleep..." He muttered.
He spotted Myrr and smiled.
"Oh, hey. Um... I think I should go now. I don't wanna ruin anyone's..." He paused.
His ears perked up slightly as he spotted the microphone.
KARIOKE?! He thought, twitching slightly.
"Ur... maybe I could stay a bit longer... depends." He stated, scratching his chin in interest.
*****
Spite glanced at the kitten and nodded before Calvin scampered off elsewhere again, making the robo-dragon confused. He shrugged and glanced in Cynder's direction. He paused, then glanced at his own body, and started laughing a bit.
"Ironic..." He muttered.
He shook his head before walking over next to Cynder and sitting down.
"Hello." He stated.
*****
The same three-tailed figure as before stood on the edge of the warehouse, glancing into the windows, yet unnoticed himself. He shrugged and turned around, only to see what appeared to be a white wolf running down the street at top speed. It was panting, and had the stink of fear about it. The draconic figure cocked an eyebrow, watching the wolf run closer, something behind it coming into view.
A Xenolith.
The scaled being scowled. He had been told of these before, but never actually encountered one. He jumped down onto the abberation's back, crushing its torso and killing it. He sighed, noting the wolf had already run off. He shrugged and flew back up to the roof, watching those inside the warehouse...

Cynder cautiously glanced at Spite, shaking a bit out of habitual fear.
"Um... Hello... Uh... Spite, was it?" Cynder responded, noticably shaken by being approached by another being who seemed so similar to her species so... calmly. The wyrmling glanced away muttering, "Spyro always seemed to be better at dealing with these situations..."
----------------------------------------
Myrr smiled, leaning in closer to Shive's cheek,
"You know, you've already heard how My mom and dad sing. If you stay a little longer, I'll go up there and sing myself... hehe, I heard from Calvin that you were wondering about how well I sang."
(OOC: No update from Solranous and Kisara's end, I'll just say they are getting progressively more intimate, if you catch my drift.)

((The drift has been caught!))
Spite nodded in response.
"Yes. And your name is Cynder, correct?"
He narrowed his eyes at her, noticing her shaking.
"There's no need to fear me... or is it something else? You can feel free to tell me." He state, a bit of worry in his voice.
*****
Shive slowly grinned, then scowled in Calvin's direction (who was now in the rafters), and growled,
What did I say about telling people what I'm thinking?
Calvin gave him an innocent look before replying,
Uh... not to?
Shive slapped himself in the forehead and grumbled before turning back to Myrr.
"I'd like that." He replied to her, rubbing his cheek against hers.

Cynder looked up to Spite, sad. "It's not you... Its just... We seem to have a lot in common when it comes to how someone would describe us... And I see what I did for almost my entire life." Cynder paused, sheding a tear. "I... I practically sentenced my own race to extinction. I'm sure you can understand why I'm afraid someone else would find out about it. Also... you kind of remind me of someone I can never see again because of what happened to me. ...I can't call anywhere in this galaxy, or even this f***ing universe my home and feel like I'm truely safe. Um... Pardon my language, but I'm just so frustrated by this." Cynder shook her head, as if trying to rid herself of a coming migrain. ----------------------------------- Myrr smiled, "Well, since no one else is trying to get to the stage, I'll head up there myself." The half dragon did so, already knowing exactly what song she want to sing. It happened to be her favorite and she absolutely loved listening to, singing along with, and even dancing to the song. As such, she knew it by heart as much as Solranous knew 'Keep Holding On.' As she got to the stage, she tuned the speakers to the correct volume, and was a bit surprised when she saw Solranous had the song programmed into it, but smiled all the same. The half-dragon slinkedover to the mic, saying, "Alright everyone, you've heard Solranous and Kisara. You've heard Reizus, but they always say third times a charm right? Now I'll be stepping up for a song, one that I'm dedicating to my lover, Shive." Mentally, the half-dragon was smirking, knowing this would bring about a blush to Shive's cheeks. Perfect timing, too, for the music started playing. (OOC: Everytime We Touch, If you haven't noticed, I have a fettish for this song.) "I still hear your voice when you sleep next to me.
I still feel your touch in my dream, in my dream
Forgive me, my weakness, but I don't know why...
Without you its hard to survive!" At this point, the music shot into a fast tempoed chorus. "'Cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling
And everytime we kiss, I swear I can fly
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last!
Need you by my side
'Cause everytime we touch, I feel the static.
And everytime we kiss, I reach for the sky!
Can't you feel my heart beat so,
I can't let you go
Want you in my life!" The song went into an instrumental section, to which Myrr matched the tempo with a tap of her talons on the floor. As it slowed down again, the next string of words came, and the half dragon matched the timing perfectly. "Your arms are my castle
Your heart is my sky
They wipe away tears that I cry, that I cry
The good and the bad times, we've been through them all
You make me rise when I fall!" [/u][/center] Myrr smiled once more, now that it was going to shoot into that fast-paced portion she so loved to listen to. "'Cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling
And everytime we kiss, I swear I can fly
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last!
Need you by my side
'Cause everytime we touch, I feel the static.
And everytime we kiss, I reach for the sky!
Can't you feel my heart beat so,
I can't let you go
Want you in my life!
'Cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling
And everytime we kiss, I swear I can fly
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last!
Need you by my side!" The music cut off, and the half dragon sighed, waiting for Shive's reaction... And everyone else's for that matter |

((I've... taken a liking to it as well... >.>)) Spite, Reizus, Barias, and Calvin all glanced in Shive's direction almost simultaneously. The dragonkin was still sitting agaisnt the wall, his lower jaw trembling as the dragonkin tried to keep his eyes from watering. I... I really mean that much to her? Wow... I... I have to pay her back for that... He asked himself. He brushed at his eyes and looked back up, smiling. He clapped and yelled, "That... that was freaking great!" He glanced at Spite and jerked his head in his direction, motioning the mecha-dragon to approach. Spite glanced back at Cynder and stated, "Be right back." He rushed over to Shive, and the dragonkin asked, "If it's not to much, could you help me with a song real quick?" Spite nodded, and Shive smirked. "Thanks. Let's go." He stood up and walked to the 'stage', smirking at Myrr and winked at her. Spite ran over to the karioke machine, jacking a cord into it (Shive already told him what song he wanted). Shortly after, Spite ran back to his original position beside Cynder, and Shive snatched the mike, turning a bit red. He was about to sing the one song he thought described his feelings for Myrr most... he hoped that was a good thing. "Excuse me if my singing sucks, but I have to pay a certain someone back for that beautiful performance." The speakers then started into a guitar solo, and Shive grinned. (( Time of Dying, one of my personal faves. But nowhere near Kryptonite...)) "On the ground I lay,
Motionless in pain-
I can see my life flashing before my eyes!
Dead I fall asleep,
Is this all a dream?
Wake me up, I'm living a nightmare!
I will not die (I will not die)
I will survive...
I will not die, I'll wait here for you!
I feel alive, when you're beside me!
I will not die, I'll wait here for you,
In my time of dying!
On this bed I lay,
Losing everything,
I can see my life, passing me by-
Was it all too much?
Or just not enough?
Wake me up, I'm living a nightmare...
I will not die (I will not die),
I will survive...
I will not die, I'll wait here for you!
I feel alive, when you're beside me!
I will not die, I'll wait here for you,
In my time of dying!
I will not die, I'll wait here for you!
I feel alive, when you're beside me!
I will not die, I'll wait here for you-
In my time of dying!
I will not die, I'll wait here for you!
I feel alive, when you're beside me!
I will not die, I'll wait here for you-
In my time of dying!"As the end guitar finally died down, Shive glanced up, smirking. He wanted to see Myrr's reaction- to hell with anyone else's! |

Myrr smiled, her own eyes tearing up... She knew the song, mostly because she caught Solranous of her time listening to it once, and then snuck it on to her own music list. She did like it, just not the extent the other Solranous did.
"Marvelous, Shive. Absolutely marvelous." the half dragon said, wiping away a tear.
Cynder's jaw dropped at the two songs they sang for one another. She was so stunned by how easily the two stayed together that she had to actually put a claw under her lower jaw to lift it back into place... And even after that it fell again. She wasn't quite sure how she got her paws on those memories, but she knew that the dragonkin had almost killed her on not one, but two occasions. And she slmost killed him in the memory Armageddon had apparently let slip into her mind when Myrr was turned into his slave... It boggled her mind that they weren't at each other's throats right now.
"Was this... what Solranous meant... when he said... love would have blossomed? Between me... and... Spyro?" she asked herself quietly. "Would he really have stayed that close to me... even though I tried to kill him?"

Spite nodded, accidentally hearing her self-conversation.
"Indeed. It's a strange emotion that I don't fully grasp yet, but it's one of the strongest emotions out there. If this 'Spyro' person truely loved you, then he would've forgiven you of anything." He stated.
Something O'Malley has yet to understand... He glumly added as an afterthought.
Spite stared at the floor, letting out a mechanical sigh. He hoped his brother would get over this soon... or at all...
*****
Shive nodded, grinning gleefully.
"Thanks. Glad to know I've done something right." He stated, spirits lifting immensly.
He hopped off stage and over to where Myrr stood, smirking deeply. He hugged her tightly, but not enough to hurt her, bringing his wings around her as well. He closed his eyes as her brought her as close to himself as he could, and muttered next to her ear,
"I'm glad I decided to show up."
He laid his head on top of Myrr's, losing himself in the hug.
*****
Outside, the three-tailed entity sighed sadly.
"I'm so alone..." He muttered.
He spread his massive wings and took to the air, wanting to get away from the smell of affection.
As long as I'm in service to him, I always will be... He thought, getting more depressed.

"...I ...I never thought of it... We were just children... I'm still a child but... Time passes a lot slower here... then it does in his dimension... He's already at least thirty years old... Nothing could happen between us... No matter how much either of us want it to be...
...
...
damn... My life sucks... It seems everywhere I turn to I get manipulated by some evil creature. At least most of my would be friends had their ends easy, a simple smash and it was over for them. But not me. No, Fate has a morbid sense of humor to put me through all this guilt and frustration. ARGH!" angrliy, Cynder banged her head on the table, startleing pretty much everybody in the room.
"Why did it have to be me!?" she sobbed quietly, hoping no one would think she'd gone mad. "Why did I have to be the one with the power to free that damned Dark Master? Why did I have to be kidnapped and turned into that monstrous adult form of mine again!? WHY ME!?" The wyrmling finally just broken down, curling up and crying.
(OOC: Come on, you can't help but feel bad for her, can you?)

((T-T poor little gal... Shive! Fix this! Or at least attempt to!))
Shive turned towards Cynder, and his face saddened. He nodded to Myrr and walked over, crouching down next to her as Spite edged away, knowing what the dragonkin was doing. He looked at her, then sighed, stating,
"Cynder... please, listen to what I have to say. I know Fate seems like a jerk, more to some than others; I can identify with that. But tell me this: Even if you can't be with Spyro, would he want you to be like this? I'm sure he'd be glad to know you're safe. He wouldn't want you to dwell on the past like this; if he's as you describe he is, he'd want you to be happy and move on."
Something suddenly sprang into Shive's mind, and he smirked.
"I have an idea... if you're still feeling like this tommorow, come to my place around 12'o clock. I have some people I think you could talk with. Until then, try to keep your mind off of it and enjoy the party. Kay?" He asked, a sad smile on his face.
((Shive: I can't stand to see children like this! T-T))

Myrr frowned, the little wyrmling clearly had it hard. She wanted to help, but she didn't know what the black dragoness was going through, so she decided the best thing to do was just stay out of it and let Cynder come to them.
Cynder sighed, sniffing still.
"Alright... But one question... What do you mean by '12'o clock?' I usually go by where the sun or moon is in the sky... I'm... kind of new to a specific part of the day being assigned a 'number'... At least... I think that's what it is...That, and I'm kind of new to almost everything here... I know what a house is, though most of the dragons I would have known probably used caves instead... but the point stands that I don't get what you mean by '12'o clock'..." The Wyrmling had put emphasis on 'number' and '12'o clock' to show she had No. Freaking. Idea.
(OOC: Beat the newest Spyro game and saw the end after a *Ahem* Spoiler video, and thats where the 'breath makes things turn to stone' idea came from and... *cringe* poor Cynder took a beating.
Cynder: That damn Ape King, Gaul, threw me against the wall! I was out cold for the entire fight!)

((Ouch...))
Shive slapped himself in the head.
"Oh, sorry. When the sun is directly in the center of the sky, about midday." He stated, feeling like an idiot.
He leaned closer and stated quietly,
"And what Solranous said was true. You aren't the only one here who's been manipulated against their will. We've all done things here we're not proud of, if we were in control or not..."
That brought back memories he had wished to forget.
So many innocent people... No! Forget about it! It never happened! If they don't know, then you don't know! He thought.
He gently patted Cynder on the back before rising to his feet.
"If you ever need someone to talk to, we're everywhere. It's... kinda hard not to find us..." He stated.
"damn straight!" Reizus shouted, nodding.
Barias snorted, then slowly nodded, glancing off to the side. Spite bobbed his head as well.
