Who: Hydra, Ikki, Allen, ANY
Where: The Arena
When: Day 98, evening
What: When we last left our intrepid heroes...

[In the arena, there's some decent quality meat burning as a gift to two particular Judges, a comatose member of Hydra and a few guards with torches... and not a whole lot else to explain what's going on.

Well the real interesting part is going on a little deeper anyway.]

That way's where his bad memories are. We're not hurt.

Fuck. Lets just get going.

[you guys :( Following their lead]

Fang's Room

[be_my_chum.insanejournal.com]

[The room is almost exactly like Fang usually leaves it. It is somewhat sparse, like most Blank's rooms are, though he seems to have gone out of his way to give it little personalized touches. On the table are a pair of Blade's long bone knives, and one of Scowl's throwing knives, and some changes of clothing: A Hydra uniform, a Kogarasumaru uniform... and an orange straight jacket. Carefully set beside them is a long, battered crow feather, and a fluffy pink feather (that occasionally crackles with a distinct static charge.)

A crude, but accurate sketch of some badass A-T are pinned up on the wall. ... So is a shadow, independent of ANYONE in the room.

The water is chest deep here but clear. There is a spot by the far wall that the water is a deeper blue than any others.]

[Gives the deathbunny a fond scratch behind the ears before following the group into Fang's room, pausing in startled surprise at the ownerless shadow.] That's really important enough . . . ?

[eeeyeing the strange clothing. ]

Where did those come from?

[gives the shadow an odd look, but - headin' over to look at the clothing, particularly the Kogarasumaru uniform]

Re: Fang's Room

[be_my_chum.insanejournal.com]

[There's a detail off here, or there, on the uniform, but for the most part, it's almost exactly how you remember it.

The Hydra uniform is standard, but sewn and mended in various places, with increasing skill.

The straightjacket is a perfect replica of the one Akito and Agito were in when Ikki first met him. Long sleeved and heavy canvas, it's a bright orange, and built to be secure, not just for show. It has an unusual hood, with a face mask built in, in front.]

[glances towards the clothing aftewr a moment, giving the straight jacket a deep frown] Probably his past. Before this place.

. . . Hey. Does the water look different over there? [nods towards the deeper blue patch near the wall]

Re: Fang's Room

[be_my_chum.insanejournal.com]

.... Gets deeper over there?

Re: Fang's Room

[hatchin_up.insanejournal.com]

. . .

Mm, maybe. It is darker.

Re: Fang's Room

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

. . . Ikki. Go test how deep it is.

Yeah, yeah . . . [heading over to do just that, then]

[As he gets over there, he seems to drop below the surface of the water. Without a trace~]

Re: Fang's Room

[hatchin_up.insanejournal.com]

--Ah!!

Re: Fang's Room

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

—Shit!

[GOING OVER TO SEE IF HE CAN REACH DOWN AND PULL HIM UP AGAIN]

Re: Fang's Room

[be_my_chum.insanejournal.com]

[SPLASH! Well. There went the leader too.]

Re: Fang's Room

[be_my_chum.insanejournal.com]

... Well. Shit.

[Starting towards it too, to at least figure out what happened to the idiots.]

[wades behind him. SCOWL DX but...disappearing. BUT SCOWL DX]

They couldn't have just vanished--!

Re: Fang's Room

[be_my_chum.insanejournal.com]

...

I don't see anything...

Maybe they got eaten...

Re: Fang's Room

[hatchin_up.insanejournal.com]

Don't say that! You're part of Fang, right? You should know. Bring them back!

Re: Fang's Room

[be_my_chum.insanejournal.com]

[Was starting to look closer, then stops to glower back.]

I'm not a fucking 'part' of anyone. I'm me. If 'Fang' is anyone, I'm lookin' for him too.
