Title: Countryside
The Powers That Be - December 10, 2006 08:36 PM (GMT)
The green countryside. Past Sera's lair is more out here than in the town. This area is good for hiding and planning attack. It is also incredibly quiet almost all of the time.
Sera - December 27, 2006 12:13 AM (GMT)
::Sera steps out of the house and flees through the countryside, stopping once she's a good mile and a half or so away. Panting, the brunette finds a stream and takes a long drink, curling up with her back to a large tree afterwards. She sighs, thinking.::
(This is utterly insane. If that's Moony in the past... and my past was a demon who tortured her, then Moony wasn't always a demon. My past self made her a demon? No. That's ridiculous... this makes no sense. I wonder how the others are faring... especially Andrea. Hope Julie gets killed in whatever place she got sent to...)
Past Moony - December 28, 2006 11:39 AM (GMT)
::Moony hurries back to town, holding a blanket around herself tightly. She wears a corner of it over her head like a hood.::
Villager - December 30, 2006 12:02 PM (GMT)
::Not really knowing where to begin looking for Sera and/or Moon, the villagers spread out. Their flame torches light much of the area and are easily visible in the night from a fair distance. They begin to search.::
Sera - December 30, 2006 06:11 PM (GMT)
::Sera's head jerks up to the sound of a rabbit thumping around over there; she had dozed off. Quickly remembering what the fuck's happened, the brunette stands, spotting torches shining in the night.::
(Fuck. Are they looking for me? Or Moony...)
::She sprints out in a direction away from any torches, then stops after awhile. Utilising her power next to a large tree, Sera degravitises herself and, once into the tree, starts to climb to the very top. Now having a great vantage point over the area, she keeps her gaze on the torches, being deadly quiet.::
Man - December 30, 2006 09:20 PM (GMT)
"There's something over here?"
"That's a squirrel."
"An evil squirrel!"
"It could be her!"
::There's a lot of shouting and a poor, innocent squirrel is murde-
"It's getting away!"
"Shoot it!"
"I didn't bring my gun! I just have this damn flaming table leg!"
"She's escaped, idiot!"
"You're the idiot!"
::Etc::
Sera - December 31, 2006 02:18 AM (GMT)
::Sera rolls her eyes; the villagers aren't hard to overhear. She stays still and silent.::
(You're all idiots. Idiots.)
Past Moony - December 31, 2006 02:04 PM (GMT)
::Seeing the torches, Moon starts running towards them.::
"Here! I'm here!"
Man - January 1, 2007 11:07 PM (GMT)
"Moon!"
::Moon's father is first to reach her. He sees her face in the dim light.::
"Oh, who did this to you?"
Villager - January 5, 2007 08:14 PM (GMT)
::A small crowd gathers around Moony.::
Past Moony - January 5, 2007 08:16 PM (GMT)
::Moony starts sobbing into her father's arm and relates what happened to her as best as she can.::
Man - January 5, 2007 08:20 PM (GMT)
::Once Moon has finished, her father feels incredibly sick. He can't believe the demoness would be capable of such depr-
(Actually, I can.)
He turns to the others with rage on his face.::
"No longer will this demon terrorise our people. Tonight she will die. Spread out and search. If you find her, kill her!"
Villager - January 5, 2007 08:26 PM (GMT)
::Everybody does as instructed. Ooh Sera, they're getting close! Better move on while you can.::
Sera - January 5, 2007 08:30 PM (GMT)
(Well, fuck.)
::Sera shifts in her tree, growing restless, and now, quite worried that she's going to die a horrible, violent death by a mob of angry table leg-carrying villagers.::
(Should keep moving...)
::Being creative in times of danger, Sera degravitises herself, then takes a slow-motion leap off of her tree into the next one. Her landing is kind of shaky, but she didn't make a ton of noise, so it's all good. Grinning in accomplishment despite the situation, the brunette keeps going from one tree to the next using her new-found skill.::
Villager - January 5, 2007 08:31 PM (GMT)
Sera - January 5, 2007 08:34 PM (GMT)
(Shit. I want Andrea.)
::Sera, in a bit of cold-sweated panic, speeds the fuck up going from tree to tree, almost falling, but her mind's set on getting as far away as possible from the villagers and their table legs.::
Villager - January 5, 2007 08:34 PM (GMT)
::Someone throws a flaming table leg at Sera.::
Paige - January 5, 2007 08:38 PM (GMT)
::Paige steps out and walks to where the noise is coming from. She sees all the fire and the silhouettes of those carrying them against the darkness of the night sky.::
"Woah... definitely in the past."
::She starts running towards the mob.::
Sera - January 5, 2007 08:39 PM (GMT)
"I'm not the demon!!"
::Shrieks Sera as she narrowly avoids the damned table leg. Her landings on each tree become very unstable until, not paying attention, she leaps, but there's no tree to land in. The slut slows herself at the last second before hitting the ground then takes off, sprinting away from the mob like there's no tomorrow.::
Paige - January 5, 2007 08:41 PM (GMT)
::Paige frowns at the black figure she can see sprinting from everyone.::
"Ten bucks that's my person."
::It's too risky for her to orb to her so she just has to keep running.::
Villager - January 5, 2007 08:48 PM (GMT)
Sera - January 5, 2007 08:51 PM (GMT)
(Please don't!)
::Sera's still runnin' like a deer caught in the headlights, desperately trying to put some distance inbetween herself and the villagers.::
Villager - January 5, 2007 08:56 PM (GMT)
::More things are thrown at her.::
Sera - January 5, 2007 09:06 PM (GMT)
::Sera avoids most of them, but a lucky something or other hits her head hard and she stumbles. However, she subconsciously knows she has to keep going, and she does, but her pace has slowed; Sera's tired, and now, hurt. In a last-ditch attempt to get away, she exerts all of her energy into degravitising herself and getting up into a reaaalll tall tree, tiredly heading to the highest point that she can, even though she's currently seeing doubles and close to blacking out, due to the hit and the exhertion from using her power so freakin' much. When she's as high as she can be, she latches onto the tree limb, hunkering down and wrapping her arms around it with an iron grip, lest she suddenly faint and fall to her unwieldly death.::
Villager - January 5, 2007 10:33 PM (GMT)
"She's up that tree! Burn it down!"
Paige - January 5, 2007 10:39 PM (GMT)
::Paige raises her eyebrows and nods to herself.::
"Orbing it is."
::Her body disappears in the bright lights of her power and sweep towards the tree. Moments later, Sera also disintegrates into orbs and whee they fly off to the time portal.::
Villager - January 9, 2007 06:55 PM (GMT)
::Having been angered by Paige, though they didn't see her so assumed it was one of Sera's demonic powers, the villagers had stood around and talked for a while. But then they hear Sera screaming from around her place and run to the time portal.::
