I stayed up til 3:30 and still wanted to keep going, but realized I REALLY should be getting to bed. As you can see though the rough time tags of my posts, I didn't sleep for long :P
Yeah, I see. :p But yeah, sleep is important. Although, when we are younger, we all want to stay longer up. xD
On an another note, a small question I have for you, Chileans (Region members, of course :p) - what do you think of vaporwave? I got into it relatively recently, but I quite like it already.
The skeletal navigator glares back to Pearle, it was the first time the brother even laid eyes on the people training his little brother... If he still had eyes they would be boring into the back of his little brothers head because here he thought he was doing some do or die training with muscle bound monsters by how poorly Jacob was describing the training sessions but apparently he was hanging out with hot sisters, lucky little bastard. All the while his brother was trying to live down the fact that he was plagiarising his childhood idol. Still, Lucas didn't interfere in his brothers training. But he would offer a polite wave in at least a decent effort to make a good first impression. Besides, internally he would just lament his early death and being bound to this skeletal form when such treasures still roamed the earth, taunting him relentlessly. Anyways, the sisters may be surprised by the diverse group Jacob has in his crew.
Jacob, not noticing his brother just yet, couldn't help but think about not having to use his gears to use his powers. While that would really be cool, he didn't know if he would get rid of fourth gear. If he was learning how to develop himself he could just phase it into something new as a final resort sort of transformation. "That does sound pretty cool. I suppose it's just a matter of training my body to do all of it without using the gears... Sounds hard to work myself out of that habit. Though working gear four's sticky smoke is going to be hard to make use of since I used haki to give me greater control over my smoke."
Flaz catches the comlink before looking to it, listening to Future Sabi's explanation while he was also deep in thought about how he was going to tell current Sabi about all of this... It wasn't going to be easy for her seeing as Nano has been her mother since the very beginning... "Until then... We need a place to train. The kids need to start their training too."
"Ask Jane about her training chamber she created, that is where you will train." Future Sabi said.
"Training chamber? Jane never told us about making a training chamber." Aylote said.
"Just ask her I don't have time to answer questions you need to be prepared to fight Demigra and his armies." Future Sabi said as she flew away from the group.
"This is just crazy..." Kali said.
"We are left with more questions than answers."
"I agree, why is it this timeline is going down a different path?" Erkin asked.
"Well it won't be easy, but anything worth doing never is." Pearle's gaze now floats away from Lucas. Based on the look she had given him she's naturally never met a skeleton person, she certainly knows of them so she isn't terribly surprised. More just momentarily intrigued. "We've about figured out the core things to work on now. Throughout your training we are going to be working on improving your skill with haki, your control over your devil fruit, and fine tuning your fighting ability. All the while it'll be up to you to figure out how to best use all of this and apply it to your fighting style. Iris...?!"
The drunken girl, who Lucas might not have even noticed buried in the sand, simply grunts in response. Pearle now turns around, raising her voice. "IRIS!"
"Muregph...."
"IRIS, WAKE THE HELL UP!!!" Pearle suddenly yelled loud enough that she could've silenced a full bar fight, causing her sister to immediately jump to her feet.
"I wasn't sleeping...!" Iris's reflexive retort falls on a cold silence as Pearle stares at her with an 'are you serious' expression. Iris starts scratching the back of her head embarrassed, blushing, and...shy stuttering? "I uh...um...sobering up a bit. I think. Maybe. C-can I go get...um...some more booze...please....?"
"No." Pearle gives her response immediately and bluntly, her expression unchanging, staring her sister down.
"PLEEEEEEASE!" Iris practically teleports to her sisters feet with how fast she moves, going down to her knees as she reaches up to take hold of Pearle's still crossed hands. Tears are actually projectile flying from her face in the most anime scene Jacob has ever seen in his life. "I-I don't like being sober!! Pleeease! It'll only take a minute!" Pearle does not change. Comical crying intensifies. "W-what if I agree to o-only get two kegs?! Please, I'm not me when I-I'm sober!" Pearle's downward gaze at Iris only intensifies. "I...I'll share...??"
"Stop making a fool out of yourself and get up, you're not making a booze run." Pearle has clearly been through this before, and is all too used to it. She knows how it goes. Iris agrees to only get 2, she gets 2 dozen. Agrees to share...does not. It's just a thing.
Iris, defeated, rises to her feet and mopes away as Pearle now actually continues on with what she wanted to say originally. "Stop walking away and get back over here. Jacob's haki is just about recovered, you're going to do some spree dodging runs with him."
Iris turns, a little surprised, staring back a Pearle. "B-but I'm...uh...no-t ready. I need...bo-oze."
"No you don't, now shut up and just stand here." Pearle points to the ground and walks away as Iris stand where her elder sister pointed, blushing up a storm and refusing to look at either Jacob or Lucas, instead opting to look almost solely at the ground while waving her hip and twisting her toes into the sand.
She is a VERY different person as she sobers up. Between falling asleep and then Pearle's yelling her body must've just processed it all apparently. While drunk she'd probably be flirting and implying something about being thrown a bone right now, open to interpretation, sober she can't even look at them.
The Battle kept on raging on between the Aeritaian Knights of Order, its multiversal allies, and Soul King's armies. Both sides losing soldiers from left and right as they clashed against each other. As the chaos unfolds on the battlefield Soul King went back to Onka's Gate and started to zap Nexus's soul energy away causing the gate to crack more.
"Lucas you need to stop Soul King! Once that gate is destroyed Onka will erase the Aeritaian Omniverse." Ryker said.
"I know, but I'm not sure if I can face him in a one on one battle." Lucas said.
"Don't worry about it Lucas!" Jestress said giving him two thumbs up.
"I know you can do it! After all you are my champion!"
Lucas smiled at Jestress's comment he knew he couldn't let her, Ryker, Ray, and Nexus down. Lucas soon ran off towards the gate to put a stop to Soul King's plans and finally free both Ray and Nexus. It wasn't long before Lucas arrived at the gate as he got ready to stand his ground against Soul King.
"It is useless boy... Soon Onka will be unleashed and this entire Omniverse shall restart with me making all things balanced and pure." Soul King said as he stopped what he was doing to turn around and face Lucas.
"No matter what you do, failure shall always follow you."
"I know I can not beat you Soul King, but there is someone who can." Lucas said.
"You see during my time in the Storytale Multiverse when I was walkimg down a dark path. The Storytale Multiverse has faced many threats to its existence Alpha, Chaos, Anti, and even me at one point. While these threats were far more powerful, Ray and her friends kept on fighting on no matter the cost. To put it simpley they had determination with them and we both know its a powerful trait if it was used correctly."
Soul King listened to Lucas, even though he has the urge to stab Lucas, Soul King let him keep talking thinking he might as well let Lucas say his final words.
"So what I'm saying is... Ray I know your still there you need to break free from Soul King's control! I know you can do it Ray just stay determined!" Lucas called out to Ray's soul within Soul King.
"You are wasting your time boy and you are only delaying the-" Before Soul King finished his sentence Ray's soul flew out of Soul King as it flew towards Lucas.
Lucas seeing Ray's Soul catched it in his hand as her soul merged with his increasing his power. Soul King watched in shock as his Divine Energy returns back to its normal levels.
"Impossible... Soul King said.
"You underestimate us Soul King with the power both our souls you can not defeat us." Both Lucas and Ray said in a unison voice as they share the same mind and goal.
"WORMS! I SHALL CRUSH YOU ALL!" Soul King yelled as he summoned his axe and started charging towards Lucas ready to strike him down.
But in lighting fast speed Lucas dodged Soul King's axe and then appearing behind him kicking him at full force as a red and white aura surrounded Lucas. Soul King is sent flying into the air before falling down on the ground. He soon stood up again as his armor breaks off one by one from the heavy damage. But before he could do anything else he is beaten down by Lucas once again. As the battle progressed Soul King could not get a single hit on Lucas with each punch Soul King got weaker and weaker before finally he fell on his knees looking up at Lucas. For the first time in all of his existence Soul King has now known what defeat felt like.
"Go... Ahead kill me finish what you have started." Soul King said as he breathed heavily as the battle raged on in the distance.
"Sorry Soul King, but Ray is not fond of killing anyone." Lucas said as he felt Ray's soul telling him not to kill Soul King.
"But do not be mistaken Soul King your crimes will be punished after all, there are fates worse than death."
Lucas then touched Soul King on the forehead as he vanishes from the Realm never to be seen again. With Soul King's disappearance his army soon turned into dust since they had no one to follow. Nexus's chains soon disappeared as well and the gate repaired itself keeping Onka locked away forever.
"What did you do Lucas?" Ryker asked as he and Jestress walked over to him.
"We banished him from this Omniverse and he will never come back here again to hurt us anymore." Lucas said with a smile.
"I knew you could do it Lucas! You know even though this whole 'villian becomes a hero' thing is usually cliche you do it pretty well!" Jestress said patting Lucas on the back.
"Thanks Jestress, I couldn't have done it without you, Ryker, and Ray." Lucas said.
"Now with Soul King gone the Omniversal War is over and peace can return to every multiverse." Ryker said.
Ever since the defeat of Soul King and his armies things went back to normal in the Aeritaian Omniverse, but with a few changes. With Soul King banished he could no longer watch over the souls in his Realm, so Jestress was chosen to be Soul Queen while she hesitated at first with the offer she accpeted it and had the Soul Realm merge with her Realm. Jestress also restored the Storytale Multiverse and brought back everyone alive with their multiverse restored Ray and her friends continued their daily lives with Ray and Nexus only knowing what had happen.
With the Divine Council gone the Omniverse was still unbalanced, so Ryker stepped down as Knight Commander and became the Watcher over the Aeritaian Omniverse making sure the balance is kept. His Cousin would replace him as Knight Commander of the Aeritaian Knights of Order and helping with rebuilding the damages across multiple different multiverses.
As for Lucas he became a nomad roaming around the Aeritaian Omniverse exploring different worlds since he could not stay in the Storytale Multiverse due to his past actions. From time to time Lucas would visit Jestress as the two became romantically interested in each other over the months. As for his legacy Lucas is known as the 'Savior Of The Aeritaian Omniverse' though Lucas liked that the people saw him as a hero he didn't want any public attention and mostly kept to himself finally living a good life he wanted.
Unknown Sector, Far From The Aeritaian Omniversal Sector
Soul King laid on the ground as he looked up into the sky he had just fallen from he couldn't believe he was banished from his own home the home his father created for him many years ago. And now here he was laying down on a beach disgraced by the people from his home wearing nothing, but rags for clothes. Lucas was right that there were fates worse than death since Soul King is still immortal he could not die and now he lies here suffering he did not bother to get up instead he chose to stay down and spend his eternity here....
((Soul King is now open :))
Oh hey, actual activity . Awesome
Flaz shrugs softly as he thought about why this timeline is different, he wasn't exactly an expert in multiverse theory or timelines and the such. He was pretty clever, but not THAT clever. "Who knows, maybe because of the extra help we're getting from the future people?" He says as he starts thinking about that training room Sabi mentioned, it sounds like a good idea. He can train with the kids and get to know that insane transformation of his.
Lucas was certainly surprised to see that a Iris just burst up from under the sand like that, he didn't even notice her for a long moment there. Jacob wasn't as surprised since he was used to this by now, but still impressed that she could sleep so soundly under sand like that. "Well its a good thing we were already working on that sort of thing."
Neither brother were prepared for what followed Iris waking up from her sand nap, sober Iris was way cuter than drunk Iris. For Jacob this was just the trippiest thing to witness since now she seemed so timid and weak, though he remembers that this was supposed to be training for Iris as well, so maybe this was to try and get her off that alcohol dependence. All that potential was there, even if she can put away 20 barrels and wake up 30 minutes later meek as a lamb you should drink for fun not to stay confident.
Jacob stands back up with both hands clasped behind his head, staying stood where he was. He didn't want to put her under pressure by moving closer or around her "That metabolism of yours has to be more insane than mine to get through booze this quickly. But you don't really need it to fight do you? I enjoy training with the both of you, you've both helped me come this far and I want to keep going."
While his brother tried to encourage the shy girl and coax her into continuing the training, Lucas thought it may be better to try and provide an incentive, both of them have been working pretty hard getting Jacob to the stage he's at and even got him through an outburst. It was time to give back to them for their hard work and kindness. Even if they have been beating on their captain alot. "Say! Once you're all done with the training how would you two like to come aboard for a little celebration? A little something something to say 'Thanks for not killing our captain' sort of deal? They'll be food and drinks."
Iris's eyes widen and she outstretches both of her hands, waving them towards Lucas at the mere mention of this invite. "N-no! I, uh, I wouldn't want to bother you guys! I....I'm sorry!"
"Iris...."
Iris flinches, seizing up a bit as she pulls her arms back in. She can just feel Pearle's gaze on her from behind, clearly wanting that answer to change. "I, um...we...we'd be happy to...?" Pearle coughs forcibly, causes Iris to physically shiver as she realizes that accepting the invite isn't what her sister meant. She claps her hands together and tries to confidently explain what they're going to do next, but is failing the confident part. "R-right...well, uh, um...we are g-going to start a n-new exercise. Uh, I'm g-going to try to h...hit you. I'm sorry---!" Pearle coughs again from behind, cutting off the attempted apology tangent. "A-and you n-eed...uh...to just, not le-t me. You have t-to dodge twenty times in a r-row, without, um...uh...without getting touched. If you g-get h-hit or are forced to block, w-we restart." Pearle coughs, again, rather loudly this time. A shiver goes up her spine at this one as she blurts out her next sentence. "This is training for your observation haki!"
Pearle kind of sighs and crosses her arms, shaking her head, but continues to stand rather than sitting down.
OOC: Iris is officially my most anime character ever and I'm okay with that :P
Just now realizing I should probably add Iris and Pearle to my characters. Gonna need an image for Pearle...maybe update Iris's. I didn't expect them to become anything worth noting/formally adding XD
Legendary confrontation with Karr incoming.
Oh noes, its the smooth one
Jacob looked around to his brother, he wasn't even aware he was there on the docks the whole time before just now. Though he was brought back to Iris and Pearle when she called out her sisters name. She was like tiny puppy with how meek she seemed as she tried her best with her sisters continual encouragement to get every stuttered word across to her.
He had no idea how he was going to play this to try and encourage her, like she was he didn't know if she would even try to really hit him, she couldn't even look him directly in the eye as she was right now. Goading her won't work, she'd likely crumple into tears as she was, enticing her with a promise of booze after didn't work, since as she was it was evident that she may not like crowds and positive encourage seemed to have little effect if any at all outside of verbally pushing her as Pearle was doing currently. "So this an advance on the training we were just doing before? Awesome! Give me your best shot." He couldn't let his guard down though, for all he knew like she was she didn't hold back instead of his assumption that her lack of confidence will carry over in sheepish attacks. Jacob took a defence stance as he relaxed his mind, focusing on his observation haki and how he was going to dodge.
"Anyway we need to get back to Jane's lab before its too late." Erkin said.
"Not before we give Nano a proper burial she was family and it would be disrespectful to leave her on the ground like this." Aylote said as he went over to Nano and buried her underground putting a bright red flower on her grave.
After that was done Kali, Aylote, and Erkin flew into the air and headed towards Jane's lab.
"O-oh..um..okay!" Iris lowers herself to ready and immediately Jacob gets a flash of several attempted strikes aimed at him. An opening kick for his shoulder followed up with a spinning heel into his back, forcing him to almost fall sideways and forward, only for Iris to follow through the motions of the backspin heel and keep spinning, ending up on the opposite side of him from where she kicked. She takes hold of his face and lifts, taking him off the ground while he's off balance, then spikes down like she just scored a touchdown. The premonition is also accompanied with seeing Iris mouth 'sorry' every time she does anything. Though these things don't exactly have audio, so now he gets to hear it.
Flaz stayed behind a moment longer to look at Nano's grave "Sabi will know that her mother died like she lived, courageously... She would have wanted you to live. But... I'll make sure that she can give the demons a run for their money just for you. If I know anything, its how to train super saiyan's. I'll see you later Nano..." He says patting the grave softly before heflies off to meet up with everyone else at Jane's lab.
Saying sorry on every attack? It's really like she's a whole other person without booze.. Jacob thought to himself as he sidestepped the kick to his shoulder and then step away from her attempt to kick into his back so she could follow into slamming his face into the ground. He was right in his assumption that he couldn't let his guard down against her, she wasn't shying away from her attacks and weakening them, something Pearle likely saw to long before he started training with them. But she wasn't pressuring him as she was currently. So the young captain decided to do something, putting his hands in his pockets and closing his eyes as he stood in a neutral stance, waiting for her next attack with a smile on his face. Making a bold statement that he could do this without even needing his hands or watching for tricks from her own observation haki to try and rouse her confidence.
Iris lands and gets ready to go towards him, her face looking rather sheepish. Sober Iris does not want to do this at all. But just as quickly as her weight shifts towards him she stops, shifting back a bit, as he puts his hands in his pockets and closes his eyes. W-w-what is he doing? H-he knows he's b--etter than me? I c-c-can't...!
Being all too familiar with her sister and how she thinks, Pearle calmly calls out a simple line, staying where she is. There's one personality trait that remains mostly the same between drunk and sober. "He doesn't think you can beat him cause you're a woman Iris, he's making fun of you...!"
"W-what?" Iris suddenly perks up a bit, but stays rather shy in appearance as she looks to Jacob, "W-why are you b-being mean Mr. Smoke!" Tears begin to well up in Iris's "I'm gonna beat you up, y-y-you......" Iris, visually trying to muster up the personal strength as her body tenses up. Her voice calls out as tears fly from her face. "YOU SEXIST PIG!!!" Wailing like an upset child she disappears, as Jacob gets only the briefest warning through his haki to look up just in time to see a flying fist already in his face, but at the same time he now physically sees a fist he still has further premonitions he can see. After connecting with his face she plans on following through to the ground, placing both hands downward, then leg sweeping him and kicking him in the back to send him higher airborne before jumping after him, all happening so fast.
This must be why they were taking it slow earlier between attacks, the premonitions versus actual fight begin to overlap forcing you to both mind the visions but also not let yourself get distracted as you must still actively be fighting. A very discombobulating sensation to one who isn't used to it, as now not only is there a fist about to strike his face but he can still see the follow ups in his mind.
Jane's Lab
"Are you guys alright?!" Jane asked worried as Sabi followed behind her looking for her mother.
"My power level radar went crazy just a few minutes ago and I thought-"
"We're fine hon." Aylote said as he hugged his wife calming her down.
Jane took deep breaths as felt safe in her husband's arms after a while of hugging both Jane and Aylote let go noticing the sad looks on everyone's face. And then she noticed Nano wasn't here with the rest.
"Where's Nano?" Jane asked.
"She..." Kali began speaking as she tried holding back tears.
"She died saving Kali's life." Erkin said finishing Kali's sentence.
Jane gasped in shock as she covered her mouth as tears formed in her eyes Nano was like a sister to her and hearing about her death broke her heart. But the most devastated out of the group of heroes was five year old Sabi as she heard Erkin give the news.
"Ma... Ma...?" Sabi asked as tears started running down her face after standing in shock for a few minutes Sabi ran off out of the room crying.
"Sabi wait-" As Aylote tried calling to her she was already out of the room.
Somewhere Else
Future Sabi sat down on a rock as she waited for the demons to come back and finally revenge her mother. But she didn't understand this timeline should've been the one that would bring happiness and yet her mother in this timeline was dead she couldn't understand why this was happening. Why was this timeline going the direction it is going.
"I DON'T UNDERSTAND!" Future Sabi yelled as she charged a ki lace fist and punched a large rock beside her sending it flying.
Jacob kept his stance going even as he started to feel bad about making her cry- "I'm what?" Did she just say that he was he was making fun of her for being a woman? I know this is to help her gain some confidence but I can't help feel that its totally at my expense here. He thinks to himself as he suddenly gets the premanitions followed up by the confusing aspect that it was immediately happening shortly after. "Hey! I-Mm!" No time for arguing his innocence in this, surprise was written where offence should be on his face before his whole body disperses into grey smoke to quickly reform behind her and leaping back, keeping his haki active since he knew she would give a speedy and emotional follow up on his evasion.
Lucas however was just watching, not really helping to clear his brothers name since Iris seemed plenty motivated to beat his brothers face in right now. "Hang in there Jacob. You only have 18 dodges left to do" The entire time he could barely stop himself from laughing as he lay on his back and laughed. Brotherly love at its finest.
Little 3 year old Dyph, who had the body of a 10 year old thanks to his accelerated aging thanks to the Frieza DNA and genetic engineering that Flaz put him through looked quite distraught that aunty Nano was dead too. Flaz walked out and patted his son on the shoulder "I'll handle this... We need the training chamber first and foremost son." He says looking to Aylote before he passes him and walks after Sabi with Dyph in toe.
"Sabi? Sweetie? Its uncle Flaz. I know your sad right now... We all are... She was like family to all of us, we loved her... But thats why it's going to be okay okay. We're going to train and make sure we don't lose anymore of our family."
By future Sabi
"This timeline is pretty weird..." Future Dyph says as he floats down next to Sabi. "Your mom is fine back home, and the you here has everyone still. Sure she's gone in this timeline... But maybe her passing might just be what our friends need to get stronger than they ever where in our timeline... I mean. My dad never turned golden in our timeline before he was killed..."
Even as Jacob turns into smoke he is already getting premonitions of Iris turning and pursuing him, reaching for him before he can even fully reform but he had already jumped back out of initial reach. Iris, still wailing in a childish fit, cries out as she relentlessly pursues. "Mister Smoke is no mister at all, he's-he's just Meanie Smoke!" As she says this she's throwing a straight punch for Jacob's sternum, to be followed up immediately with grabbing his shirt and pulling him into a forceful knee to his gut. In the midst of a fight, or whatever this is, there is next to no time between premonition and actual acts leaving little time to think and act.
"Chamber? How did you know..."
"Long stroy, but we need to train now, so we can fight back against the demons we can't afford to lose more lives." Aylote said.
"Are you sure? The chamber is still in its experimental stages something could go wrong." Jane said.
"We have to use it Jane, we must do whatever it takes to stop those Demon Witches." Aylote said.
"Dad is right mom... They already took one of our family away from us." Kali said.
"Think about it Jane you fought hard to free Earth if the Demons are unleashed there will be no more Earth or Universe." Erkin said.
Jane sighed as she listened to the three Saiyans words they were right if they keep waiting than more of her family will be killed.
"Alright follow me." Jane said as she led them out of her lab room.
In Sabi's room she was still crying the lost of her mother pained her still she always thought that her mother was the strongest one in the family and yet she was still defeated. When she heard Flaz's voice through her room door she stayed on her bed not wanting to move as she wept.
"It doesn't make sense... I-I- thought mama was a strong warrior... I thought heroes like her never lose to the bad guys..." Sabi replied in between sniffs.
----
"I know that Dyph.... But seeing my mother die in this timeline is just..." Future Sabi stopped talking as she held back tears as her hand formed a fist not knowing what to say next.
OOC: Other than TAS ratings, which I simply haven't bothered to delve into with anyone, I believe I have finally finished Jet's entry in my main characters! Now I just need new, better art for Flaire so I can work on hers, and Anne's picture is perfect don't at me, so I just need to fill her entry out. Then I can figure out where to go and who to work on next, probably the Originals just cause I'm really not satisfied with where they sit in terms of current pictures. Gonna try to hit all my characters who already have pictures first, then move onto ones who don't.
Unfortunately, we all know how I've been with actually keeping up with all the stuff I say I gotta do, for like...what, three years? Sorry XD *Looks at Rebirth Eclipse factbook. Divinity factbook. TAS rework. Energies. Literally everything about Synnadine*
Update/Edit: Went ahead and finished Anna. It is now 4 am. Also 
ZOCOM
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0UsGEyz_2rE
Flaire is now done, yay! :D all my main characters are complete (Jet's picture technically pending, cause one for him is just SUPER hard to find, but I think the one I got works well enough)
I’m in your town of work.
