"You know my real name wasn't really Chaos ? it was Ryu Dragonstar, but that was before I learned about my parents, do you have a wife ?".

Chaos took to working the other part of the city out of the water, and in five hours they were almost done, the city was only a few feet from the surface if only he could have more strength he could pull it up he could find Rethan's cure and Chaos's past. Both of them put all of their energy into one last tug on the ropes bringing the city up from the water, he found the floatation device and turned it on heading toward the other piece, he maneuvered it over the other part and docked the cities together.

"It's beautiful !!! it's fixing itself making it just as Sotha Sil thought it would !!! so wanna get your body back..."

*Isabel looks up into the night sky and notices she's been battleing a war within herself for over two days, not drinking, sleeping, nor moving. Standing up she leans on the railing her legs not use to the new possision. Thinking about the past days she looks over the city with the wind blowing her hair slightly she sighs. Pulling out her dagger she runs her finger across the blade, and a drop of blood falls onto the stones of the balcony. Staring at it for a moment she thinks about death and how much easier it would be. Slowly she puts the blade of the dagger on her left wrist pressing the dagger's blade easily cuts through her skin. Watching as blood seeps through the gash she drops the dagger.*

"The blood that has caused so many wars, and lives ended...this blood, the blood of men, the blood of enemies, and the same of friends...my blood."

*As she heals herself only a black scar remains, picking up the dagger she looks back out over the city teleporting herself to Dagon Fel, infront of Shadowj.*

"You know, we don't have much time left before he comes..."

*Isabel smiles playfully as she kisses Shadowj passionatly and with an eternal lust, pulling away she asks.*

"Do you think I sould find my brother, or leave him?"

*looks up at the two moons, he grumbles and groans as he holds his left side, he sees Isabel and acts like everything is alright, he smiles kissing her back with passion he's never felt before, he then hears what she says and growls*

"I know darlin, I know...as for your brother...if you think finding him is the right thing then do it..."

*before he can finish he roars in agony feeling something rip away at him from the inside, he drops to one knee and stares at the ground gasping for breath but looks at Isabel*

"Isabel...I will only say this once and I want you to do exactly as I say...RUN!!"

*he reaches out to her and roars again, sweat dripping to the ground as he fights against whatever is inside him, he retracts his arm and holds it to his stomach*

"run Isabel...warn the others...there ain't just him to worry about now...I'll fight it till my last breath but i don't think I will win this time"

Rethan looks at chaos, "I used to have a wife and son, but my wife was killed by a theif captain of a ship and my son died in the battle of Ebonheart. I never got to say goodbye. He even saved my life by giving me this new body. But I'm sure he would want me to be happy so I'm getting my old body. Stronger, faster, better makes me." He looked at Chaos and nodded his head.

Xaos was crawling for his life... although he didn't have any idea what in god's name he was running from. He had reached to bottom of the stairs. It wasn't what he pictured. Bodies, everywhere... blood streaming to the floor in endless pools of crimson red. He was the only one left. He ran across the large lobby, jumping over bodies, and breathing heavily. His hair had slight drops of sweat draining off of him, and his legs were weak. He ran down the hallway, and around a corner, reaching the large vaults. He spiraled down the open staircase, just to find more death... the guards weapons were stained with bloody guts and dripping in the disgusting mess. Xaos carefully stepped through the piles, and hopped over and onto the second staircase. He traveled down, just like Charles told him. He made it into a slightly warmer area... he was underground, within the cellars. he looked left, seeing an endless hallway that faded into darkness, and then looked right, seeing a man hanging over a pandemonium. He had blood streaming out of his arm, and a large cut across his stomach. Xaos raced up to him, slowly lifting him off the booth, and cradling him to the ground, being careful with his head.

"William?! William wake up! Charles... Ch... Charles sent me down here, he said you knew what to do."

The man paused, slightly opening up his eyes.

"...where's Charles?"

Xaos paused. But impatiently cut in.

"...Look, Charles, he's dead. William... I need whatever's down here. I need to get what Charles sent me here for."

William weakly pointed down the dark hall.

"...go. 35th door on the right. Hur- hurry!"

Xaos nodded firmly, easily resting William down. He darted off down the hall. The air began to smell musty, as if... the air was old. He ran past the jail styled vaults. Xaos continued to watch the numbers pass by on the right.

"23... 25... 27..."

He was close. He finally reached number 35, slipping on the wet rug benath his feet. he regained balance and rushed up to the lock, beginning to shake at it. It was useless. Nothing but a single desk was within the room. He looked at it, slowly rising his eyes up to see what was on it. A white pearl vase, with one thing inside it... but a single black rose.

Xaos went cold, as he slowly turned around. He saw nothing but blackness of the halls, closing in on him... taking over his vision. As he looked down, he couldn't believe what he saw... a dagger. The dagger was shoved within his gut, with blood leaking out of the wound. He felt no pain, no suffering, all he felt was warmth. He slowly pulled the dagger out of him, holding the bloody blade up to his sight. The blade was old... faded... and had something enscripted on it, Xaos could easily read it... and he knew what it meant.

"...Beware, nine shall see a traitor come and go
From whence a long and bitter war will follow
And the Named shall join in unity
Yet suspicion will cause disharmony..."

The darkness caved in. Silence. Nothing could be heard except the clank of a dagger fall to the ground, and one last body drop to forever lay at rest... But it all wasn't over yet.

Xaos woke up in a cold sweat. Shivering and dizzy. He jerked around, looking at his surroundings... to slowly come to find, he was in his own bedroom. He wiped his face with his hands, and looked down at his gut, to see nothing but a burgundy silk robe wrapped around him. He was jittery, and looked around again, taking in short, shaky breathes. He looked to his left to see Skye wrapped up in the thick sheets and bedspread. He slowly figured out it all was a dream, a horrible dream.... nightmare.

Xaos' breathes were beginning to lengthen, and his shakiness began to ware off. It was all so real... he knew his past would catch up, but he never wanted to accept the fact that it actually happened.

He slid off the bed, and walked into the living room. Grabbing a scotch, and pouring it into the glass. His hand was shaky still, but as he sipped the drink it went away a little. He couldn't hide any more. He needed to finish off what he started a long time ago. The words in his dream would haunt him forever.

"...traitor come and go
From whence a long and bitter war will follow?"

The prophecy was true. His dream wasn't any dream, it was a look into the past, or was it the future...

His mind was confused. He would have to think about it in the morning, time was beginning to become precious... as his powers of Ancient times, were slowly taking control once more.

"Um...were in the same boat man, now lets get your body back before the inhabitants souls awaken, what do you think a good name for a son would be ? mines coming in 7 months".

Chaos/Ryu walked towards the Library to find the machine, and a book written by his former self, before he came to Morrowind. He turned toward a black and red machine, and turned it on telling him to get inside, and said this might hurt like H***, having your soul wripped out and popped into "another body". Chaos/Ryu walked around the massive rows of books, and found the one he needed, he started reading until a ringing nose interrupted him.

"Well a good name for a son I think would probably be... Jacko (Jake-oh). But anyway, what is that god forsaken noise?!" he looked around.

Rethan stepped into the machine. He was gittery and happy at the same time. He took a swig of his flask and yelled "Alright, lets ROCK!!!" and threw it on the ground.

*Shatter* "Aw man, I loved that flask. Stupid things aren't made like they used to be." he signals chaos to turn the machine on.

OOC: I deleted my post about Anja passing out jsut so none of you are confused.

*Ace wakes up with sweat running down his forehead. The sun is shining in his eyes, and he slowly gets out of bed. Ace walks to the kitchen and grabs a loaf of bread then walks out the door to a hot sunny day. He walks over to the bar and orders a drink. When the drink is gone Ace decides to head into the woods and train.*

*Ace reaches the woods and starts to swing his sword at nothing. Ace feels dizzy and falls to the ground, he fainted, and drifted in to a deep sleep.*

"Oh no. If the battle here is not for a while, I must prepare myself. I haven't eaten, slept, or even used the restroom in two years now... I was communing with Earth, long story Jack... anyway, I'll probably be in the pub. Don't worry, the sounds of chaos and fighting will alert me that they're here."

*Isabel she's the pain in his eyes, but remembers the time when she left him before. Knowing that her brother can wait she kneels down besides Shadowj and hugs him while wispering in his ear.*

"I said I wouldn't leave you and I'm not going to...ever."

She tries to concentrate on just one thing, but her thoughts lead her astray as she remembers the prophecy and how every person plays into it. Though for some time she's been wondering what part she will play. After studying it for a long while she had narrowed it down.

...'The fearless one emerges from a journey lead by light and strength'...

*Snapping back into reality she looks at Shadowj and rund her hand through his hair wishing that everything will be ok. Through the corner of her eye she keeps a watch on his sword just incase he attacks her like has been done before.*

*jerks and twitches within isabel's grasp, he whispers back to her as he growls in agony*

"isabel, please, this isn't like before, this is worse and this time I was able to stop him with your help...he won't fall for it again...please"

*he growls knowing isabel won't listen, in one last desperate act he uses his last big of strength and vansishes, appearing in Gnsis, hidden deep within the ground...there he collapses but soon rises, an evil look overcomes him as he laughs hysterically*

"guess who's back? ahahhahahahahahahahaha that's right SECRONIA!!"

Jack turns towards Garret wide eyed...

Jack: You havn't gone to the bathroom!! WOW!

Jack grins, but soon concentrates...

Jack: Ace has passed out deep within the forest.

Jack sprints toward Ace at lightning speed
he arrives in a matter of seconds...

Jack: Ace?? What happened to you?

Jack picks him up and runs to Anja's house. He burst through the door. Anja walks out alarmed at the loud noise caused by the door and Jack. Jack places Ace on the couch and takes a seat next to him. Jack pulls out a bottle of Flin and begins to slip it, waiting for Ace to wake up and find out what happened.

*As Ace regains consciousness he sees a blurry figure sitting over him, he makes it out to be Jack and he sees Anja standing a little farther away. Ace thanks Jack and heads up to his room, he realizes he hasn't trained hard enough, everyone always has to come to his rescue, even though he could have been fine this time.*

*Ace prays to the gods for more power, he can't be this weak, he needed to be the one helping his friends, after what he did they shouldn't have to help him. Ace finishes begging the gods, and his father for more power. Ace drifts into a sleep.*

*The next morning Ace awakes feeling stronger then ever, his bicep had increased in diameter by a few inches, he looked in the mirror and didn't even recognize himself, he had become a lot stronger. Ace thanks the gods and walks out the door to another sunny day. Heading over to the bar, Ace then orders a drink and sits in a dark corner observing the room, not knowing where anybody is.*

*Isabel watches Shadowj go, and looks once at the black scar now etched across her left wrist from her dagger. Not knowing where anyone is she walks back to Anja's whom she has seen recently about Zurn. Knocking at the house Anja calls for her to just come on in. After Anja hands her a cup of coffee it's late in the night. Not knowing that anyone else is there she stares into the cup of black coffee watching it motionless. After some time, not knowing how long a single tear falls into the now cold coffee creating a ripple effect. As she looks up the sun stream in through the window. She looks around only to see Ace, not giving him any recognition she stands up and takes the coffee cup. Pouring the contents in the sink she washes out the cup and walks outside not wanting to disturb Ace. Walking out the front door she goes to the dock remembering all the good and bad times they had here. Sitting down she watches the waves break against the rocks and then takes out a quill, some ink, and a black book. She starts to write...

November, 12th

Though many people do not know it, the prophecy leads us all. Some of us become corrupt, while others just get lost. Such as my brother Xaos...

*She wipes away the tears that start to well up in her eyes wanting to escape.*

OOC: I'll finish this later I need to do things

OOC: I wasn't at Anja's. I'm at the bar.
