Tales of a Journey (Private!)

Riri rubbed the top of her head as she looked up at the brunette, "Oh, come on now Ranma! You know that was kind of funny! But it seems that we can't peek into Kinta's head just yet."
She went over and picked up the book before tossing it over to Ranma, "Keep it closed until you get some rubber gloves on, or something that will not get you shocked from the book. It's more enchanted than we know, that's for sure."

"I can think of one person," Lizabeth said huffing in a bit of a pickle, wondering if it the guy from the Colosseum has any connections to this.

"Ace? Why would he be doing something like this.." Scarlett muttered as the vampire arched his eyebrow as he looked at the two people actually listening to the conversation. "Sounds like you guys are involved in some way because of how priceless your expressions are," Dietrich said as he tried not to laugh as he opened up a portal.
"Kinta, I think we should head over there now. Also, if we lose that bottle, there's no way in knowing who that mysterious guy was at the "Noahs Only" party and what he wants that bottle for," Scarlett said as she looked over at the man sitting on the couch.

 

"Well, if we're leaving, we should leave now then. Florence, watch the shop while I'm gone, and make sure that nothing else gets stolen. Got it?" Dietrich said as he glanced over at the young ginger, making him nod and cheer, "Just bring back food!"

Riri just shook her head as she went over by Neli's side. "You better come back Kinta. I don't want to tell Audri any bad news if you go off missing or something!" Scarlett snapped as she went past the vampire and through the portal. "Good luck then," Riri mumbled as she stood there for a moment before procedding through the portal as well.

Lizabeth went over and grabbed Neli's hand. "Take care Kinta, all right? And whatever you do, just... just be safe," Lizabeth said as she stood there squeezing Neli's hand a little nerve-wrecked as Dietrich called out for them to hurry up.

 

Dietrich looked over at Florence, seeing that the Greed child had a look of worry on his face. "Keep an eye on everyone, if you can Florence. We don't need anyone else dying at the moment," Dietrich said before he turned and went through the portal himself.
The portal disappeared as Florence went over to the desk and pulled out books that were identical to the group's own personal books and started flipping them open to the recent events of things...

~~~~~~~~~~~

As everyone exited on the other side of the portal, they were standing in the middle of the main hallway. Well, what was left of it.

The hallway was buried on rubble, there was various objects broken all over the place. And there was also some type of claw marks all over the walls and floor.

"Well, where shall we start looking?" Dietrich said as he looked over at the group before they heard a scream coming from down the hallway. "Let's start with going that-a-way!" Scarlett said as she dashed forwards leaving the others in the dust.

 

"I have no idea, but let's just hope he'll cooperate in giving answers after we kick his ass," Scarlett muttered as they came to where the kitchen door was.
Or would be, if it wasn't on the floor, split and yet shattered into thousands of pieces.
"Man, that wolf really knows how to do break a house in," Dietrich said as he and the others caught up to where Scarlett and Ranma stopped.

"No kidding. Guess we're going to have to pay Rhode for all these damages," Lizabeth said while Riri made her way past the group and went into the kitchen. The kitchen was wrecked in a way that no one could remember on what side of the room the stove was on, and why a chair was stuck in the side of the wall. Riri turned around and looked at the group curiously, "Where the hell is that damn-"

Before she finished her sentence, she was tackled to the ground by a mahogany-colored blur that was snapping its fangs at her. "Oh, found him!" Riri said in a small tone in her voice as she struggled to keep the wolf's teeth from biting her head off.

OOC: Homestuck obsession much? :3

 

OOC: Well, you got a good point there..

The wolf glanced over at the flying axe, and jumped away just in time before his hair got singed by the flying fireball.

"I know, his puns really are terrible." Dietrich commented as Riri got up to her feet, a little shaken up by the fact that the wolf tackled her down moments ago.

"Which do you prefer Riri, Ranma's terrible jokes or being mauled by Ace?" Scarlett shouted, wondering how the girl was doing. "I pick mauling if it leads to me hearing my own screams rather than Ranma's sucky puns!" Riri shouted as the wolf stood back, not wanting to get anywhere near the axe.

 

Ace tried to move out of the way, but Riri had tackled the wolf back where it stood as Cain came down and struck the wolf with the rapier.

Ace yelped in pain before he snarled at Cain, knocking the vampire back and charging towards Riri again. "This will teach you you stupid brat," Riri muttered as she grabbed a frying pan from off the ground and smashed it on top of the wolf's skull, hearing a rather large cracking sound echo through the air.

"Hey, I'm not going to cause trouble!" Dietrich huffed out annoyed before looking around as he heard some faint shouting. He looked up and was able to see Alice and Zackary hanging from the brand new chandelier hanging from the ceiling above their heads in the kitchen.
"Alice! Zackary! Are you guys ok?" Dietrich shouted as he saw Alice had a fear-stricken look on her face as she screamed, "There's two more behind you!"

Scarlett and Lizabeth looked confused from the witch's screaming before they heard snarling behind her. When they slowly looked back, standing there was a red-furred lion and a fairly small white fox. "You gotta be kidding me," Scarlett groaned before the lion lunged at her.

 

The Lion was pinned between the knives and such thrown at it that it snarled in anger. The white fox was able to disappear through a portal before it was stuck like its lion friend. "Thanks Neli, I owe you one," Scarlett huffed out before she glanced over at the lion, as it made no moves to escape or attack them.

Out of the corner of Dietrich's eyes, he saw a portal open up and the white fox land right next to Riri's feet.
Riri was busy tying Ace up in some type of fabric that she didn't even notice the little fox at her feet. The fox made a type of whining noise until Riri looked down at it.

"Oh, for the love of Tsuyuk! What are you doing here Zero?" Riri whined as the fox transformed back into his original form, he looked a bit frazzled as he stood there with a surprised look on his face, "I was going to ask the same thing! But more of, I was sent here with these two idiots to come fetch a bottle! Also to be the look out for a box of some sort.."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Not far from where Kinta and Kilet was standing, a familiar fox was watching over the scenes. He knew not who he was, but he knew of the purpose that the silver-haired man was possessing. He was more afraid of what his boss was going to do since he didn't pick up the parts he needed to fix his boss' studio yet after the last incident.

What the hell are you doing Matthew?! Go get those parts for the damn recording equipment! A voice shouted into Matthew's earpiece as he got startled and fell out of the tree. "Owww, sonofabittccchhhh... I hate working for demons," Matthew whined as he sat up rubbing his jaw.

 

The lion snarled before Scarlett rolled her eyes, "Chaos, I know it's you. Just turn back and explain why you're here."

The lion shook its head before Lizabeth glanced back at everyone, "If we can't get them to change back, how about asking Zero.

"Even though he's a cutie, he has nothing to do with this!" A voice was heard. Lizabeth looked back to see a red head standing there, with a pretty aggravated look on his face.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Chaos, the Proud Sin and Florence's younger brother." Scarlett said before the man snipped, "Yeah, right! I hate that Greedy bastard! He stole my last 3 boyfriends!" "Oh great, another gay one," Lizabeth rolled her eyes before he hissed back, "Actually I'm bi, so you better watch your friggen ass there girly."
"Huh, why does his voice ring a bell..." Riri muttered as she went over looking at Chaos feeling a thought of remembrance from the man.

Chaos: Shall we dance by *ouija-b on deviantART

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Matthew caught up with Kinta before pulling a key out of his pocket and opening the door, "You don't have to be a jerk, but I can at least help you out for now.."

 

Chaos seemed not as annoyed by Neli's poking as he started turning the charm onto Riri, "Oh, hey there sweetheart! I thought I'd never see you again after all the shit my boss was giving me on stealing people's souls!"

Riri looked at the Sin with a blank stare, having no idea what he's talking about. Chaos saw the look on her face before groaning, "Oh, come on! Can't the guy at least let ONE girl remember who I can? Jeeze, you think you know a guy like him... Anyways, wanna go o-"

Chaos doubled over as Zero kicked the man in the stomach with a pissed off look on his face, "You're going out with me, remember you stupid bastard?!"
"Zero, you're gay?" Riri asked before the fox looked down at his sister with a crooked smile on his face, "Yeah. I'm sorry that I'm not st-"

"THANK YOU GOD!" Riri said cheerfully as she hugged her brother. Everyone else just looked as confused as fuck by this point, not sure what to make of the situation.

Dietrich just looked at the Noah-vampire before running his fingers through his own hair before retorting the man, "Yeah, I know Cain. I've been a vampire since I was born, but it's not that bad. And I already told you I had NOTHING TO DO WITH IT!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Well, I have to "watch" the madman, so he doesn't go on another fit and storm through the worlds causing more chaos than usual. His other friends went off to go fetch something for him, and I got stuck watching the kid while getting ordered around." Matthew sighed as he pushed the door open and stepped inside.

 

Zero sweatdropped as Riri let go and stopped on his foot. "Ow! What's that for?" The white fox man whined as Riri snipped, "For not telling me!"

"Uh guys, man in pain here?" Chaos said as he was on the floor holding his stomach. "Oh, right sorry." Zero said blushing as he helped Chaos off the floor as Lizabeth and Scarlett gained their composure.
"Ok, now that that small love story is done with, can you explain on why you're here for the bottle?" Scarlett asked as Lizabeth saw Alice and Zackary getting down from the chandelier.

"Well, our long time friend, and boss, told me and Ace to go find the bottle for him. He's been trying to find out some answers with his messed up family tree," Chaos explained as Ace was howling as his feet were stabbed through the floor and he couldn't budge.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Matthew sighed as he heard the vase crash on the ground as he shouted, "Andre! Stop being an ass for one second and be nice!" A picture frame flew in his direction, knocking Matthew onto the ground.

As Matthew tried to get up off the floor, a black and yellow blur past by Kinta and Matthew as it headed up the stairs and the stairs were starting to freeze over. "Man, he's been more agitated since he lost his package of cigarettes." Matthew huffed as he went over by the frozen stairs.
