Corrupted Radiatons

Luna: "I-.. I think I can see through Destiny again?"
Lezard: (I don't know much about Scoldrant Users, but their Soul Link might have reawakened if they both needed each other?) *He thought to himself in confusion.* "What do you see? We could track her."
Luna: "She's in a forest-" *She squinted her eyes and suddenly shook her head.* "She's now in a clearing."
Lezard: "The Twilight Forest is huge-a-mottus!" *He spread his arms far apart.* "I'd need more information than that." *He slowly stood up and gently grabbed Luna's arm, respectfully pulling her up.*
Luna: "OK, there's a dirt path, like in them medieval shows."
Lezard: "And?"
Luna: "And-..." *She looked puzzled.* "Wat is that?"
Lezard: "What is what? Ooo, the suspense." *He wiggled his bottom to each side.*
Luna: "Nah, it's just a little black Scoldrant thingo."
Lezard: "Anything else?"
----------
Destiny: *She followed the dirt path from the air and looked at the black Scoldrant in confusion.* "Yeu-"
*The black Scoldrant looked up and smiled with its canine-like teeth, watching its fingers extend like vines.*
Destiny: "Yeu?" *She watched the creature's vine-like nails suddenly pierce the air towards her.* "Yeup!"
*Destiny swayed to each side, closely avoiding the vine-like nails.*
Gabriel: *He looked up, focusing all his attention to Destiny.* "A Soul Link? I'd get to taste both your Neurons with a little tiny target, gahaha."
Destiny: "Yeup, yeup!" *She hissed in terror.*
Gabriel: "So frightened? Ah, you're a sensory type Scoldrant, you can feel my power, can't you?"
----------
Luna: "Gah!" *She screamed and squirmed into Lezard's arms.*
Lezard: "I thought you were fine? Jinkies! What's the matter now?!"
Luna: "It's the Scoldrant thingo, I-I never felt something this rank-" *She pushed Lezard back and dropped to her knees, suddenly throwing up.*
Lezard: "I don't?" *He looked completely confused and helpless.*
Luna: "I-It's gonna kill her! It's gonna kill her!" *She suddenly screamed in agony, as blood ran down her arm.* "Fuck, she's hit!"
Lezard: "Jinkies! I'm taking you back to Silver Wind Island!"
Luna: "I'm not leavin' her here!"
Lezard: "It'll be faster asking for Dawn's and Nathan's advice! Please!"
Luna: "H-Hurry the fuck up! It's got that yellow-eyed thing!" *She screamed in terror and heavily panted, as if she just went for a run.*
Lezard: "Hurrying up!"
----------
Gabriel: *He frowned, watching Destiny avoid his vine-like nails.* "I've only hit you once? You're an experienced little girl."
Destiny: "Yeup! Huesst! Yeup!"
Gabriel: *He watched Destiny hover back into the forest.* "Gahaha, I can't afford to miss out on an opportunity to taste two Neurons in one."
----------
*Nathan carried Karol on his back, watching an aura-made path extend to his presence.*
Karol: "Nafan?" *He mumbled into consciousness, catching Nathan's attention.*
Nathan: "You're awake! How are you feeling?" *He spoke over his shoulder.*
Karol: "I-I'm fine-"
?????: "Help! Help!"
Karol: "Who's that?" *He looked over his shoulder, staring at the trees in confusion.*
?????: "Help! Jinkies!"
Karol: "Wezard?"
Nathan: *He turned around and watched Lezard awkwardly run out with Luna.* "What are-?"
Luna: "It's gonna kill her!"
Karol: "W-Wah?"
Nathan: *He noticed the dried blood on Luna's arm, causing him to worry.* "What's happened?!"
Lezard: "We need to see Dawn-"
Luna: "Nathan, help me! I need to find Destiny!"
Nathan: "Okay, where is she?!"
Luna: "She's somewhere in The Twilight Forest."
Nathan: "In the.." *He pulled an awkward face, causing Lezard to hobble in a rushed-like manner towards the aura-made path.*
Lezard: "We'll have Dawn find her Neuron signature immediately!"
Luna: "I-It's still after- gah!" *She screamed and covered one side of her face, as if she was living through Destiny's eyes.*
Karol: "Loona." *He whispered to himself in a worried-like manner, watching Lezard and Luna rush down the path.*
Nathan: "Dammit." *He spoke with a frown and quickly followed Lezard and Luna down the path.*
----------
Gabriel: *He glanced to each side and a nine-inch tongue rolled out of his mouth, licking all around his facial scales.* "Where are you, little Scoldrant? Let me taste your Neurons."
Destiny: *She shivered in terror, as she hid behind a thick cluster of bushes.* "Y-Yeu."
----------
*The champion and Dawn stood inside the research facility, both focusing on one Rosterology screen.*
Dawn: *She continued to watch the screen scan the continent.* "Research has never done this to me before. Why haven't you located the source?"
Champion: "Maybe the Rosterology console has a fault?"
Dawn: "No." *She arrogantly shook her head.* "That's not-"
*Lezard, Luna, Nathan and Karol all barged into the facility, instantly catching Dawn's attention.*
Dawn: "Excuse me!-"
Nathan: *He lowered Karol, as he focused his attention to Dawn.* "Please, Dawn."
Karol: "We need your halp." *He started to skip towards Dawn.*
Luna: "It's Destiny, it's my little kitty." *She spoke as if she was having a panic attack and jumped forward, accidentally knocking into Karol.*
Lezard: "Jinkies, you can't see-"
Karol: "Wah-" *He fell onto the floor and a blue crystal rolled out of his dancer-like robes, touching Luna's arm.*
Champion: "What's that?" *She watched a red dye-like liquid fill the crystal, changing its colour.*
Lezard: "A Crystalline Membrane?"
Nathan: *He looked down to the crystal, triggering images of his fight with Tyson.* (A crystal must've got snagged in his robes some time in that battle.)
Karol: *He stood up and pulled Luna up with both hands.* "Are yooh ohkay?"
Luna: "N-No." *She shivered in fear, as she intensely stared at the wall.*
Karol: "Is this yours, Loona?" *He picked up the crystal and gasped into a forced flashback.*
--
Destiny: *She followed the dirt path from the air and looked at the black Scoldrant in confusion.* "Yeu-"
*The black Scoldrant looked up and smiled with its canine-like teeth, watching its fingers extend like vines.*
--
Karol: "Wah!-" *He squealed and threw the crystal away from him, as he took several steps back.*
Nathan: "The crystal!" *He watched the crystal fall to the ground, before stopping in mid-air.*
Champion: "It's floating?"
Lezard: "Ooo, attack of the floating memories." *He wiggled his bottom to each side.*
*The crystal suddenly spun and flew towards Lezard's head, causing the guild to gasp.*
Lezard: "I was joking, please don't attack poor Lezard!-" *The crystal spiralled over his head and into Rachael's hand, triggering a forced flashback.* "Wow."
Champion: *She noticed Rachael and smiled.* "Welcome back, Rachael.*
Rachael: *She glanced at the crystal, before noticing Luna's appearance and condition.* "What have I missed?"
Lezard: "Ooo, Dawn, can you somehow play the memory on a Rosterology device? I have a feeling we're going to have some plot progression."
Dawn: *She nodded her head.* "Pass me the Crystalline Membrane."
----------
*Ginger's eye twitched, as she slowly woke up, finding herself wrapped in a sheet of white light.*
Ginger: "Niklauseh-?" *She leant up, causing the sheet of light to burst into nothing.* (Warm?)
*Ginger swayed her hand around the fading light and stood up, glancing around her.*
&nbs
p; Ginger: (I can't sense his Neurons? Has he-)
*Ginger formed a fist and looked down with growing anger, suddenly noticing a red crystal lying next to her by her feet.*
Ginger: "Ey, brother. A Crystalline Membrane?" *She nudged the crystal with the tip of her toe, which poked out from her exotic-appearing shoes, triggering a flashback.*
Klaus: "Sister, please forgive me, but I need to go." *His words echoed in her mind.*
Ginger: "No."
Klaus: "My powers have not dwindled, but I feel all the Aurorions are not by my side."
Ginger: "If the Aurorions are not all with you, then-"
Klaus: "I believe that creature has somehow absorbed some of the Aurorions. Even if I desired to abandon my revenge and restore Sasuke and Asuna, I will not be able to restore all the planet's Aurorions, despite how little it may be."
Ginger: "Then why not take me?!" *She shouted at the crystal even knowing Klaus could not respond or hear her.*
Klaus: "I want you by my side, sister. But, I sensed a strong wicked feeling from this creature. We may fight well as a team, but I'm restricted to the techniques I use, due to the fear of the Aurorion Rasticplash."
Ginger: "Ykkt." *She formed a fist.*
Klaus: "I'm aware that the planet needs its energy back, but I will obtain the missing Aurorions and revive our loved ones before the corrosion of the lands begin."
Ginger: "You fool, brother-"
Klaus: "I will see you soon, Ginger."
Ginger: *She placed the crystal in her robes and shook her head, as if she knew that was all that was left on the crystal.* "The corrosion has already begun."
----------
*Rachael, Nathan, Dawn, Lezard, Karol, several researchers and the champion stared at a large projector-like screen with dropping jaws.*
Karol: "Holy Neurons!"
Rachael: "What was that?"
Lezard: "It looked like a-"
Nathan: "It was no Scoldrant." *He mumbled with his deep voice in shock.*
Lezard: "It wasn't?"
Karol: "It's sckary!" *He whined and stood close to Rachael, as if being near her comforted him.*
Luna: "It's still after Destiny, it keeps finding kitty and trying to kill her." *She continuously twitched in fear.* "She can't talk or use Azure Bursts."
Nathan: (That thing we saw in the Crystalline Membrane, that's what she's seeing right now?) *He thought to himself in concern.*
Dawn: "If that was no Scoldrant, what else could it be? It certainly wasn't human-"
*The Rosterology screen that was scanning the continent suddenly beeped in response to the Crystalline Membrane.*
Champion: "Oh my, did it finally scan for something?"
Dawn: "Yes?" *She sounded confused, as she staggered towards the screen.*
Lezard: "About time, thought my old age was going to double."
Dawn: *She glared at Lezard, as if she didn't find his humour funny.* "It's-" *She paused in shock, catching the guild's attention.*
Rachael: "Feels like I've missed something."
Dawn: "Research, are you telling me the truth?" *She stared at the screen in a dumbfounded-like manner.*
Champion: "What did it find, Dawn?"
Dawn: *She slowly glanced back to the red crystal, which lay on a small cylinder tray next to a large Rosterology console.* "It's located the origin to the Corrupted Radiatons."
Champion: "Oh my?"
Lezard: "Ooo, more plot progression."
Nathan: "Tell me!"
Rachael: "..."
Karol: *He looked up to Rachael in a worried-like manner.* (Waichael hasn't really said anything.)
Dawn: "It's that black creature."
Lezard: "The demon!" *He wailed in a half serious, half sarcastic manner.*
Nathan: "Are you for certain?"
Dawn: "That explains why research had such a long time finding the location to the origin. Because it was moving."
Nathan: "I'm going and trying to find this thing." *He grunted and turned around, readying to leave.*
Rachael: "Nath?" *She whispered on her breath.*
Karol: "I-I'm going tooh!" *He pouted with a childish frown and walked towards Nathan.*
Lezard: "That creature, it gives me the creeps, ooo-" *He shook his bottom.* "I'm certainly not interested in confronting it without help."
Champion: "What are your plans, Lezard?"
Lezard: "I want to go to all the guild taverns and spread word about this demon!"
Champion: "Causing unnecessary panic could be problematic."
Dawn: "On the contrary, it could also be wise to spread word of this possible threat."
Rachael: (Ash, what would you do?)
Nathan: "Alright, who's coming?"
Champion: "I will." *She turned around, facing Nathan.* "I feel your Neurons are very low-" *She quickly looked at Luna, watching her stand frozen on the spot, due to unimaginable fear.* "I'm not entirely sure how strong it is, but it must be fearsome."
Nathan: "Sounds good to me."
Karol: "Let's go!" *He closed his eyes and stamped his foot, failing to notice Nathan and the champion storming past him.* "W-Wait! Wait for me!"
Lezard: "I'll head to The Guild's Silver Tavern and forewarn everyone." *He adjusted his cone-shaped hat and started to hobble out of the facility.*
Nathan: "Right-" *He looked at Luna.* "We'll be back with Destiny, let's go."
Rachael: "..." *She watched Nathan, Karol and the champion storm out of the facility.*
Dawn: *She looked at Rachael.* "And yourself?"
Rachael: "I-"
Ordin: "Me?" *He walked into the facility, noticing Luna.* "What's wrong with her?"
Rachael: "I'll take her to the lower levels to get some rest."
Dawn: *She nodded her head.* "Good idea."
