Life Shards: The Recollections

[Babydoll Animis]

The child gripped Aakor's paw and sobbed, "please! please wake up!" His existence seemed to waver, the child wasnt able to be seen or touched by others

[Ryan Naismith]

"Nufck!" Leon grunted as he shot upwards, a hole in his Plate. He pokes an prods at it, amazed that he was still alive "h-holy..." He sighs, getting back up and laying against a wall, glad to still be alive. Then he drifted off into a fitful sleep.

[Khaki-Shepherd]

Nathan looked puzzled for a second, no one had ever pointed out his necklace before and he wonder if it was just a distraction. But a flash of something metallic on his target's wrist quickly caught his attention so he pulled the sleeve exposing forearm brace, in it's center was a crystal, identical to his own.

"What the hell!" he exclaimed as he stuffed the unloaded revolver back into his pocket "...where did you get that thing?"

[Fenox Helkiin]

Aakor was slowly coming back around.  "Ugh... What... Happened?.." He asked with his eyes still closed.

[Jacob Hail]

"It was handed down to me from my grandfather. He said its been in my family for generations and was something that was to important to be lost or forgotten." Jacob looked down at his forearm then over to the shining stone on the theifs neck. "Where did you het yours?"

[Khaki-Shepherd]

"My father gave it to me before he died, he said it was more important than i could ever understand" Wilson sat back down next to him
"I never knew there were other crystals... Look, I'm sorry i pulled a gun on you, My name is Nathan Wilson, what's yours?" Nathan asked, eager to learn more about the crystal he wore

[Jacob Hail]

Jacob was weary, but let go of his .45. "Jacob Hail." He said. "And its alright, just be lucky I noticed your crystal." He smiled and gave a small laugh. "I didnt know there were others either, I mean whats the chance two of them are in Denver? I mean..." The fox stopped, the gears turning in his head. "Do you think there could be other people who have these... important gems?"

[Khaki-Shepherd]

"Most likely, up until now i never knew there were any others, so i doubt we're the only ones" Nathan observed, pulling the black handkerchief down from his face. "The main question is where are they?"

[.: ♥ Kiniia ♥ :.]

Kiniia finally made it to the apartment complex, after fighting with the elements for 20 minutes. Riding the elevator up her room on the 19th floor. a small puddle of rainwater had gathered beneath her as she watched the numbers clamber upwards. the familiar feeling of her stomach lowering as lift rose higher and higher.

Finally coming to a rest, the doors opened and Kiniia walked out, pulling her keys out preemptively, muscle memory helping her to find the keys with her numbed fingers. Finally getting the door open, she flicked on the lights in her apartment, the overcast and cloudy day making it seem a lot darker than it was. Her apartment was moderately furnished, maybe a little more high end that you would expect from a teachers salary.  Dropping her bags at the side of the door, she locked herself in and took off her big coat. She shivered a little and decided that it was cold enough to warrant heating.

The boiler whirred to life and she heard the water trickling into the radiators, she smiled at the thought of a cosy night in with her friend, but first. it was time for her to relax. Walking into the bathroom, she turned the faucett until scalding water was cascading down into the tub. Placing the plug in. she walked back to her room, and started to strip out of her wet clothes.

With only her thick fluffy fur covering her decency, she walked back to the bathroom and waited for the bath to fill before slipping into the hot, relaxing waves, scented with chamomile and vanilla.

[Babydoll Animis]

The wolf child knew his interferance was only the beginning now. He let go of Aakor's paw and stepped back a little. "I have to talk to all of them..." he then turned into another small wisp and went into Aakor's shard, rreturning to his home. He then held his paw over his heart and closed his eyes. "Life shards... bring me your protectors. I seek council with them all!" Like before,small wisps flew out and travelled to each protector. The first wisp reached Kiniia, the wisp wandered around her apartment.

[Alex_Mclean]

Alex sits calmly in a library, he idly holds a hard cover book, but, he isn't paying attention to it's words. He's more watching the other beings around him reading their books. He hasn't felt like he could concentrate on a book for weeks now, and every time he tried, the words just mash together, and he gets stuck on simple words, almost always, jem, and child.

He looks down at his book and realises now he's been holding it upsidedown. Not like it mattered, he couldn't focus to read it anyway. He sighs and looks at the steel of his necklace, the jem hidden under his shirt
"Stop bothering me" Alex whispers to himself, looking down at the necklace. He looks around feeling a bit foolish after saying that, making sure nobody was near enough to hear him. He let's out a sigh and gets up to leave, closing the book and leaving it on the table.

[Saphira/Sephir Wolfdragon]

Saphira is hiding on a rooftop in central Copenhagen, keeping a close eye on the street below, she spots an easy target - a young foreign female tourist. *that one* she thinks at her brother, who is hiding in plain sight.
Sephir walks past the target snatching her wallet out of her open purse unnoticed. When he is sure he is safe and undetected, he takes flight and joins his sister. "Nice job as always sis" he says while teasing her by petting her head.
Saphira growls lowly "stop that!" And moves away from her teasing brother. Irritated she thinks at him *you are getting sloppy. The target noticed you walking past her!*
Sephir sighs *yeah, yeah sis, whatever. I got away didn't I?* he smiles arrogantly, tosses her the wallet and takes flight.
Saphira now sighs as she catches the wallet and thinks to herself *why was I cursed with this never serious brat as a brother?* she follows him into the air and they venture back to their newly rented apartment. They never stay anywhere for long as they aren't excactly best friends with the authorities, and being part dragon makes them stand out a bit.

[Tim Siguire]

"A bit irritated that Cau didn't pick up... but whatever... I'll find him eventually." Sotharc let out a small growl and continued walking
down the street, wondering what the area was that Cau was residing. "I know im close.. I have to be.... He's around here somewhere." Afterwards, Sotharc just went about his own business and decided to go eat somewhere, then he went to a park to watch eeryone enjoy themselves.  It was sunny with a little cloudage. It was more blank sky than it was overcast.

[Saphira/Sephir Wolfdragon]

Saphira desided to go out for lunch. She stopped at a cafe-like sushi place and looked at the lunch-menus. She was wearing a pair of plain jeans and a blue scarf that matched her eyes.
She decided on the cheapest menu and went inside to order. It was half-filled with customers. She scanned the room and it seemed safe so she continued to the counter.

Sephir was lazing about in the apartment, he had told Saphira that he wasn't hungry, even though he was starving, because he had to plan their next job. He was laying randomly on the black couch, twitching his right foot back and forth, trying to figure out how to get to London. He considered flying to Germany and following the beach, but he wasn't sure yet, Saphira hated it when they had to travel that way. He let out a sigh.
After a while he decided to check up on Saphira, even though he new very well that he would have sensed it if she was in any danger. *sis how's it going?*
She sent him a mental image of her half eaten plate of sushi and cut him out. He hated it when she did that, he felt naked when he wasn't able to contact her immediately, should it be necessary.

[.: ♥ Kiniia ♥ :.]

Relaxing music played, pulsing lightly through her apartment. All the while Kiniia was soaking her muscles in the bath, her eyes closed she let out a long relieved sigh
"Bath's should be mandatory for everyone, the world would be so much more peaceful". She thought to herself while blowing a stack of bubbles from her hand. She held her breath and ducked her head underwater, letting her hair get wet, and giving her face a little wash before she left the warm embrace of the water.

She dried her body a little, so it wasn't dripping wet, and wrapped herself in a  bath robe with her hair tied up in a knot. She gave a little stretch and let out an unintentional squeak as her back popped a little, Flicking on the TV, she laid on the couch, ready to vegetate for a few hours.
Something caught her eye though and it made her jump, she let out a surprised scream at a wisp floating around her apartment "What the hell is that?!"
