Helios System - Nevaaras - colony

"Whatever these outsiders are...they sure set up quickly." The voice of what could only be discerned as a male was faint in the wind, muffled by a scarf. A red visor-like goggle protected the person's eyes. A long black jacket with strange red patterns under a short beige jacket offered protection against the elements with a suit underneath that regulated body temperature, keeping the man cool in the blistering heat. In his hands were two large metal cases of Archaeological equipment. Strapped to his back appeared to be some sort of weapon that seemed to be a folded-up Scythe. "Tch. And I thought I got here quickly." He said again. From his voice, it was evident that he was in his mid twenties. "Regardless...I hope my craft didn't get swept off in the sand storm..."
He headed for the outskirts of the colony, heading to an area that would be within visual distance of Megumi...

Helios System, approaching Nevaares


SimO fired off another shot, destroying another of the creature's supports, and it partially began to slump, revealing a gooey part. SimO took aim with it's last shot, and the bullet struck true. The creature exploded, covering the are in a gooey pulp, and the infestation began to reced. Another boom rocked the ship, and chipped away the wall, revelaing the void of space, along with a planet approaching, and fast.

"All passengers, brace for impact, our engine has been crippled, we are going down, repeat, we are going down." came the voice of the commander over SimO's internal intercom. As the void tried to pull SimO into space, it held on to the floor, scrunching through metal in the process, but it served as a fine handle.


Nevaaras


A huge, blazing hot streak could be seen in the atmosphere of a planet as the large ship plummeted through the atmosphere, searing through the sky like a bullet, going right over the sandy dunes near to a colony, and crashing with a loud boom that could be heard for miles around.




Sometimes when you're driving down a road, a bug hits your windshield. It's ugly and unpleasant, but you just activate the wipers / cleaning fluid and it's gone in a few seconds. It's just part of driving down the road. You don't dwell on it, because that'd be silly. Bugs aren't worth the time.

You just discard their guts and keep on driving.

When the ship passed overhead, the man found himself dropping down and ducking between the cases he held. The shockwave of the crash reverberated in the ground. After a moment, he looked up in the general direction of the blast. "You've got to be kidding me...*sigh*..." He then got up again and took a moment to think about what to do. He decided to go to the site of the crash landing. "Can't hurt to try and be a good civilian..."

Colony - Nevaaras

As a fireball flew through the sky, a man in black armor quietly observed it from one of the highest towers, smoking a cigarette as the ship barreled through the planet's atmosphere.

"F*ckin beautiful.", Ethan muttered under his breath as he watched it slam into the ground a few miles away.

From what Ethan saw, the ship had no emergency landing capabilities, due to how violently it slammed into the ground. Everyone inside was most likely dead, and if not, they soon would be. As Ethan finished his cigarette, he saw that closer to the town was what appeared to be a person in black.

"Hmm?", Ethan uttered as he zoomed in on the mystery person with his visor.

From what Ethan could see, there was what appeared to be a girl in black clothing. The girl was unconscious, and seemed to be slowly getting buried by the violent sandstorm. Seeing that the girl was most likely going to die without help, Ethan sighed as he took his cigarette out of his mouth and flicked it off of the balcony. After than, the slit in his helmet sealed itself, creating an airtight, sealed micro-environment in the suit.

(Busy day, busy day.), Ethan thought as he vaulted off of the balcony, activated his anti-gravity module, and flew towards the downed girl.

Isle of Spirits-Manor of Eternity-Stairs

Eorthe continued her headlong dash, keeping her eyes fixed in front of her so that she did not trip and damage this fragile body, but she used her other senses to reexamine the creature floating along beside her. A spirit, that explains why I did not recognise her biological make-up, I've never encountered one before. Wrinkles...I didn't actually consider them while shaping this body...maybe I should create some to better indicate my age...No, that would just mean aging this body and its physical capabilities are already limited enough as it is...I will think it over once I have more energy back. Wait didn't humans have some tales about spirits? They were...humans who died weren't they? I never actually considered what would happen to humans after I get rid of them...Would I have to deal with these spirits too? This one here is certainly annoying enough...

Eorthe's pace slowed as she ascended past the forth floor, her breathing was also getting heavier. As she did not need to be that careful of where she placed her foot now, she looked at the spirit out of the corner of her eye. Then she decided to reply, toning down her annoyance, but still sounding slightly irritated. "Weren't spirits human once? And what is your body made out of? I've never seen anything like your biological make-up..."

"Well, most species can become spirits, if they're sentient." Mima said. "I was human though, Sometime over a trillion years ago, hard to remember an exact date when it's been so long. Mind wanders, you know? As for what i'm made of, it also depends. Mostly ectoplasm though. It's quite squishy." Mima explained.

Isles of Spirits-Manor of eternity-7th floor

Eorthe considered the spirit's words, muttering to herself under her breath. "Spirit...I never actually considered what I am...now that I lost my original body. Ectoplasm...I'm not squishy..." Then she stopped as she sensed that she had arrived at the same level as the human she had sensed. She put the spirit out of her mind, summoned a few sharp pieces of rubble into her free hand and started looking around for the human.

"What are you doing up here anyways? Looking for something?" Mima asked. "I could help you."


Nevaaras


SimO's sensors reactivated after the crash, and the tall android pushed itself off the somewhat tilted floor, sand partially flooding the room. It checked it's rifle, cooling it, and set out to find someone else.

Ethereal Galaxy - Helios System - Planet Dua - Mirror Sea - Isle of Spirits
Halls of Time - 7th floor - East Side

After a minute of walking, John decided to walk over to one of the nearby windows and look outside. As John looked out the window, he saw that they were in a large mansion of some kind, on a large island surrounded by water.

"Just where exactly are we?", John asked Cortana in a confused tone.

"There's little information to help us here. No matter what I try to reach out to, I find no electronics. There is literally no devices that can give us an idea where we are.", Cortana answered as she continued to scan he area, trying to find signs of life.

Just when things seemed quiet on the radar, a couple red dots appeared on John's radar. Reacting quickly, John quickly moved away from the window and aimed his Battle Rifle in the direction of the red dots, only he saw nothing. In fact, the red dots disappeared just as suddenly as they had appeared.

"Did you see that?", John asked Cortana as he moved closer to the window.

"Yea. I guess the note was right about the shadows being alive. Let's try and be careful.", Cortana said as she turned the flashlights on John's helmet on.

John continued to walk through the halls, trying to find a way out, when all of a sudden, more and more red dots would appear, then disappear from his radar. Not only that, but occasionally, he would see what appeared to be red eyes staring at him from the shadows. As soon as he would face his onboard flashlight towards them, they would disappear. At this point, John had picked up is walking speed to a run, shining the light of his flashlight on the shadows as they would appear. All John knew was that if he stopped now, then he would be caught by the ever-present monsters in the dark.





Nevaaras

After a minute of flying, Ethan was now within proximity of the girl and landed 15 feet away from her with a light thud from his boots as he touched down on the ground. After landing, Ethan casually walked over to the body of the girl and crouched down in front of her.

(Let's see who you are...), Ethan thought as he lightly tilted his head and pulled back the girl's hood.

As Ethan pulled back the hood, the girl's jet black hair was revealed, along with her painfully pale skin. The sight of the skin was truly unexpected. The only time Ethan ever saw a skin tone like this girl's was on corpses.

"Damn pale.", Ethan muttered as he turned the girl's head with his hand and saw the side of her face.

From what Ethan could see, the girl appeared to be dead. She had body heat, but it might have been absorbed heat from the sun. The only way for Ethan to be sure was to check her pulse. To his surprise, there was a pulse, albeit a somewhat weak one.

"Well, I can't just leave you out here for the birds, now can I?", Ethan asked the girl as if she were conscious.

After standing back up, Ethan walked next to the girl, crouched down, and turned her over to her back. After that, Ethan put his arms behind the girl's knees and upper back, and lifted her off the ground. After that, Ethan turned towards the city and began to walk towards it.

Eorthe ignored the spirit, according to her other senses, the human had just started running, seemingly with no destination in mind. This could only mean he was running away from something. She couldn't have been spotted...at least not by the human's five senses, but this human was wearing a suit, maybe it was one of those pieces of technologies created by them.

Regardless, the human was moving further away. Eorthe broke into a sprint, chasing after him, using her power to nudge all potential things that could trip her up out of the way. She was so concentrated on her target that she did not notice her senses alerting her to other presences in the shadows. As long as they were not human, she did not care.
