[04:38 AM] Mister Pott - Mister Pott just arrived from Portals. [04:41 AM] Mister Pott - Mister Pott has to tell you Seska ... lately, there's been this void *points* between us ... and ... I feel like I don't even KNOW you. Like your some kind of ... fictinal character that you just make up as you go along. Look, it's not you, it's me, okay. I just came out of a bad break up RP, and I really don't know where to go from here. [04:45 AM] Mister Pott - Mister Pott says: 'She gave me the 'I just wanna be friends' thing, and I thought when we went private rooms that we'd be WAY past the friend zone, but ... so like, technically My fictinal character wasn't even WITH that fictional character - but I played it all melodramatic - cause I'm lazy and it was easier to play off that then come up with more 'stuff' to happen in the RP. You know. It was late. We were tired. One thing led to another and ... so here I am, on the road again. Yep. There I am. Up on this text stage. Here I go. Playin the star again. There I go ... scroll the page [04:47 AM] Joe Warren - Here he is to wreck the day...! [04:49 AM] Seska Matthews - Look I don't know what you want me to do, I just - I feel like everything that needs to be said has been said. We had a good run - but we've grown apart, and I feel like now - now I just need to find myself... This time in my life just needs to be about me. Look Pott, if I'm guilty of anything, it's loving too much. [04:50 AM] Mister Pott - So true Mister Warren. Profound. [04:51 AM] Seska Matthews - Interesting way to drag someone out of lurk! Made me laugh! [04:52 AM] Joe Warren - Hmm. [04:53 AM] Seska Matthews - Food. I shall return with toast. brb [04:57 AM] Mister Pott - A TOAST?! Oh dear, I'm no good with on the spot creative reasoning. I hope I can come up with something ... I didn't even know how to source HTML for code bits, till Mister Warren ... Warlock was it? Wizard .. something? Well - thank you again sir. You vastly expanded my RP experiances in general. [04:57 AM] Seska Matthews - Back (not that anyone cares) [05:01 AM] Seska Matthews - That wasn't even a toast to me. Therefore meaningless. *munchies* [05:04 AM] Mister Pott - AFK's for coffee, and to consort with bigfoot about global warming. BRB. [05:04 AM] Omni - "A good man, that Mister Pott. Prone to balderdash and occasional rubbish, but I say, he gives me quite a chuckle now and again." [05:08 AM] Seska Matthews - I concur. [05:10 AM] Mister Pott - Well now, that toast was to ME. So, THAT doesn't count. Can't anyone give Seska his toast? (That's when I scrolled back, and realised that Seska had brought the toast, and I was so honored, I published it here, incomplete, and random, like those who wrote it.) |

Shards General Forums / General IC Board / Dr. Who and David (The Doctor versus Prime Evil) |
Feb 20th, 2011, 9:49am |
| Started by Dungeonite | Last post by Dungeonite |
David: David was perched up in the Dungeon's rafters. Inside, he was fighting for control with the Prime Core, but the Prime core was strong and hard to fight, and seemed to have the upper hand, for now. A substance that resembled black lava began to pour out of his mouth and onto the floor. The Doctor: The closet door opened and he stepped out. David: David's eyes have shifted from their usual baby blue color to a dark, murky blue, and he looks more demonic than angelic tonight as he hops down, six glossy black wings spread, fangs out, left one crooked of course... but Prime couldn't have helped that. For a second the eyes shift light blue and a half-stifled cry of alarm emits from the young fate's throat, then back to dark blue, as if there's a struggle for control... "'The Lonely God' oh yes I know that title... you love it don't you, you love to think of yourself as being above others, a special rare creature that nobody can compare to. Billions of people on earth in form much like yourself except for a singular heart and yet, you consider yourself superior to every one of them. This creature knows nothing about you, this stupid hybrid being that I took over with very little effort. I know you very well, I'm know every dark thought and emotion of everyone in the universe, everyone has a little piece of me, you should know me well Doctor, you've encountered me in every enemy, and every friend you've ever had, for I am the Prime Evil.... The Doctor: He turned to look at David, frowning, and then shoved his hands in his pockets. His only reaction during the speech was to raise one eyebrow. "Ah, then another ultimate evil, original evil, source of evil, prime evil..." "How many of you are there, seriously, because I'm honestly getting tired of running into you lot." He flicked his eyes over the form of David. "Let the boy go." David: Don't look to this creature whose form I've taken over, he's not the one speaking, it's all me, the Prime Evil. Will you save him? He wanted to stop you after all, maybe you should just let me devour him, mind and body and soul... then you can devour this realm, with nobody begging you to stop, heal the wound in time, take these people's homes, kill them all if you want. You're quite good at killing aren't you? I am the one behind all the rest you've encountered, I have many faces and many names, all of them were me, every single one, in various manifestations. What should I call you....Doctor... Theta... or should I reveal your true name? Hmmm, maybe not tonight. He laughed and was distracted long enough for the eyes to shift again and a breeze blew through the Dungeon in David's direction as the air mage was almost trying to summon some kind of power together to fight Prime, but then after a brief struggle which was evident on his face the eyes shifted dark again The Doctor: "I'm sure I'll meet someone else down the line that claims to be the source of you, and on and on and on, I mean really..." He paused for a moment, no emotion showing on his face. "Let the boy go and you can have me." David: "You would be a better prize wouldn't you... but I've infected more than just him, are you going to sacrifice yourself to free only one of them?" "It's fun to see how little foresight a so-called Lord of Time has, this place is such a rip in reality that you are half blind at least..." "Still want the deal? If so I'll accept" The Doctor: "Tempting isn't it?" He smiled. "Leave the boy, and come get me." David: Prime knew there had to be a trick, somewhere. Take it... take the crystal... and hold it...Black lava began to flow out of David's mouth and onto the floor, and along with it came a small crystal shard. David's eyes shifted to normal, but he couldn't speak, he was trying, clawing at his throat to make the freeze on his vocal chords stop, his eyes widened, and his throat was making a choking gasping sound as he struggled to speak The Doctor: He doesn't move. "I said let him go. When he tells me he is fine, then, you can have me." David: The eyes go dark again. "So you're not that stupid after all, well it was worth a try" "Why do you always try to save everyone and why do you always fail to do so?" "Maybe you like making decisions like that, letting some die deliberately because they're yours to play with, inferior beings one and all" The Doctor: "That's where you're wrong." "They aren't inferior, they're brillant." He shrugged, his hands still in his pockets. "Figured it wouldn't be so easy. Ever had a Time Lord before?" He grinned. "Scared?" David: "How many would you kill if you could have the Master as your companion rather than rival?" "After all you've already seen so many die... what would a few more be?" "He's got more than a small influence of me in him... so maybe taking you over is less tempting than you'd think" "What about Sophie, would you kill her to have the Master as your companion?" "It's just one, you already play with lives, just one girl... one girl who did this" Suddenly all David's feathers fall off, leaving a mess of down and glossy black flight feathers all over the Dungeon floor, revealing horribly scarred skin underneath, obviously from stab wounds from a very sharp dagger. "And you let her alone with you while you sleep, the girl who has killed, tried to kill this creture even, and may kill again. You do like the younger ones though don't you, dirty old man" The Doctor: He narrowed his eyes. "Why would killing anyone make the Master well again?" "You are telling you could MAKE him do something, then? " He laughed. "No thank you. And that girl has never harmed me." David: The feathers on the floor begin to come to life. The real David used to be able to occasionally use his skill with air related magic to turn a few at a time into something, but only for fun such as causing a few to turn into a squawking crow or raven, but Prime has heavily enhanced the power that's there, amplifying it manyfold from what the creature would normally be capable of. Half of the pile rises up as a cloud of starlings, flying around the Doctor, distracting him, while the other half has the shafts of the feathers expand and form into sharp blades, which begin to fly one after the other through the cloud of starlings around the Doctor, trying to hit him... at the tip of every feather is a small shard of Prime Core, if even of them pricks the Doctor's skin, he'll be infected The Doctor: He hands flew out of his pockets. Something odd was in each one. A smallish looking silver box in the right, and a long thin silver object in the other. A sharp, high pitched sound filled the hair as he pointed one at the other, and the box sprang open, revealing a deep, deep blackness. The box began to draw everything not tied down into it. The Doctor struggled to hold it, as, like a mini-black hole, it started sucking the things flying around him into it. David: He laughed enjoying the show, clapping David's hands in a mocking sort of way. Then it seemed like Prime was gone, maybe just to recharge for a while after the expenditure. The eyes shifted back to normal and then the fate of playfulness fell backward onto the floor, the unfeathered wings that looked rather ugly without their glossy covering not providing a lot of cushioning... "Doctor don't let him get you... I know you're not evil now uncle Gero told me he knows who you are... don't let Prime play with your mind, he's a liar..." "Don't come near I'm not free of him, he just retreated for a while." The Doctor: When the last of the 'feathers' have been sucked into the box, the chairs and tables in the room start shifting toward him as well. He turned the sonic again, closing the box with a snap, and relaxed a bit. He grinned and tossed it in the air once before catching and pocketing it. Then he focuses back on the matter at hand, frowning at David. "Retreated? Then he's weak, you need to block it off, in another part of your mind, contain and control it, David." David: "I've been trying to do that for a couple of days now, but he keeps reminding me of every failure I've ever had and my resolve just goes" "I don't believe him that he's the source of all evil, but he's stronger than me anyway" "I let a half-elf woman do the same thing to my mind and forgave her over and over when I should've left her, but in the end she left me, empty..." "And now this thing's got Tulia too, so I'll probably be alone again" The Doctor: He took a step closer. "If you can hold it back longer enough, I can do it for you." David: He looks distracted for a moment as if he hadn't heard the Doctor... apparently Prime is still active, just causing internal torment rather than actively taking over and speaking through his lips. "I found her in Keltara, with another man, our only daughter calling the other man daddy... and the woman who called herself my wife was not pleased to see me, and yet... I was stupid and took her back, she was too embarrassed to even introduce me to her friends there, who wants a grown man that plays with toys to make you look like an idiot" He blinked a few times as if coming out of a trance. "Hold him back? I'll try again, no guarantees" The Doctor: He pulled the box out of his pocket again, and moved quickly to David's side. He doesn't hesitate, trusting the other to keep his word, and kneels, placing the pads of his fingers along points on his face. He isn't subtle or gentle, just dives right in, taking the usual precautions against back flow. He attempts to find the darkness in David's mind, and if he does, begin using his own energy to seal it off. David: The Doctor would find something somewhat similar to what he had seen inside Casey's mind, something dark, evil, bestial, primal... but in this case the dark entity had a personality, a consciousness far more prominent than in that other case, and it was fighting back against the seals. David's own consciousness was there too, only capable of keeping it for the moment from taking over control of the body, but not able to stop Prime from fighting against the Doctor's attempts to seal it off. Through the connection, it was still trying to infect the Time Lord The Doctor: He gritted his teeth, and pushed against the infection trying to keep back along the connection. At the same time, he threw a massive amount of mental energy at it, which would either at least wound it or destroy it completely. The effort began to show on his face, sweat forming on his brow and a noise escaping his lips. David: The Time Lord would see images flashing of everybody he let down, everybody that had died that he had failed to protect, each face clear and brightly imaged, the eyes accusing, their fingers pointing, mouth opening to scream a silent scream before they were killed, exterminated, even erased. Every regret or self-questioning thought he had, even painful things he had to do in order to save more people in the long run, were shown to the Doctor. This was a last ditch attempt by Prime to fight the Doctor, distract him from the task, but at the same time, similar images were being shown to David, of how he had coddled Vladdy by never correcting him, because he didn't want to be 'mean', and how this had caused the complete lack of respect, and also the resentment from his first son. David was shown how he had allowed Cassandra de Durant to slowly drain his energy year after year, and how even after all that and the infidelity on top of it, he had stupidly forgiven her and continued to love her, continued to pour his heart out and defend her, risking his life time and again only to be criticized for 'fighting her battles for her'. How he had found Tulia and someone who finally loved him for himself, but allowed her to be infected with a Prime Core, how he had failed to protect her, and now might lose her, and his younger son Thorn was somewhere, possibly at home starving from lack of milk or other basic care, while David had let Prime walk him around wherever he wished, like a puppet, like a toy, how ironic, fate of playfulness being used as a toy. David had tears streaming from his eyes but had enough of a brave heart to hold back Prime from drawing Andruiel The Doctor: He actually yelled in Davids face, shattering the images as they at him, cause oh, they hurt, but he was so very good at repressing. The most painful and fresh was what he had been forced to do to Donna, but he wavered only for a split second before the image shattered as well, and he forced more of his will and energy along the connection. He let David fight his own battle, and concentrated solely on what he was doing, pouring more and more of himself at the darkness, attempting to shatter it. David: His mind was beginning to look as wounded as his bare, scarred wings as Prime punched huge emotional holes into David. David even felt guilty about having been tempted at one point to stomp Dana into mush, just so he wouldn't have to look at the hideous creature anymore, the same creature who had helped him by relaying instructions from Celest's hotline to help in Thorn's birth. David didn't waste energy trying to answer Prime's accusations, they were all true, all devastatingly utterly true. Of course, being good, especially having someone like Domino as a father, and Angel for a mother, David had grown up with a strong moral compass, which kept him from doing evil things. Being tempted to do things, like releasing Daleks on Sophie, didn't mean he'd actually do them. He was starting to break under the pressure of both Prime and the raging storm inside his mind of the Doctor's fight with the evil entity. His hand began to snake its way toward the dark blade, he was only able to pull it back a fraction of a second in time. "No Prime you can't kill him! No Prime! No!" "I won't let you!" "You won't use my hands to commit murder!" The darkness didn't yet completely shatter but there was finally a breakthrough as it began to crack, weaken... the Doctor was then given one last ditch attack, as Prime would attempt to make the Doctor suddenly experience the mind-burning pain and the sense of loss that Donna had experienced before and after she was forced to forget The Doctor: The pain ripped through him, and his whole body shuddered from the force of it. His attack faltered, perhaps giving the thing time to recover a bit, but the pain focused him. He took every little scrap of himself that the thing was trying to use against him, every dark day, every death, ever failure, and compacted it, using the energy those emotions gave him, and unleashed the full fury of the Oncoming Storm against the blackness in David's mind. David: Prime did start to strengthen slightly as the Doctor's attack faltered for a moment, but then when the full fury of the Oncoming Storm was unleashed, a scream emitted from David's mouth that didn't sound like his own voice at all, but that other voice that had been speaking through him. To a human, it would have been extremely loud, perhaps to a Time Lord it might be even more so. The windows shook and wind whipped around David and the Doctor and then Prime was gone, purged.... no trace left except the small amount of darkness that resides in everyone, even good people. The infection was cured. The Doctor: His fingers slipped from David's face as he collapsed on the floor. David: David wasn't in any better shape, he was for the first time in ages, actually short of breath. His first sane thought after being released was that he had to get to Thorn, but then his eyes rolled up in his head and he passed out from the strain of everything, he would have to say his thank yous later |

Shards General Forums / General IC Board / Domino ponders his mortality |
Feb 6th, 2011, 6:38am |

Domino: Domino lay there where he could feel Angel's heartbeat as she snuggled with him and the baby inside her kicking at him and he couldn't be any happier than he was at that very moment. A sad thought did come to his mind though. He wondered if there was a way to extend his life with drugs or other medical means so that he wouldn't have to leave her so quickly. He didn't want to be anything other than human, and he knew that even 'immortal' creatures were not really so he didn't seek that, but that didn't mean that he sought out death or relished the idea of growing sick either. It wasn't just his life that lay in the balance, it was Angel's too. She'd made it clear that she was attached to him to the point where her life was literally linked to his own, even more than a regular loving couple because of the way that Angel had literally been born just for him. If it were only himself, he could more easily make peace with aging and eventually dying, but the fact that this included Angel too and would also condemn her when she could have had a potentially unlimited lifespan if he'd left her to her own devices just addded another layer to it which made him uneasy and even feeling guilty. He was the one who had dragged her back from the path he himself had not been willing to follow. How could he hurt the one he loved more than himself? How could he sentence her to die with him? Even though he'd never asked her to do that, he knew because of the link they shared, it was likely. He whispered almost inaudibly "I'm sorry Angel. I don't see any way to avoid it." "I don't want to leave you" Even awake, it seemed as if he was still having nightmares. He had hurt Orion deeply without meaning to, and now, due to the course of natural events, he would be hurting Angel too. It was almost too much to bear for one man. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Angel: She stirs and wakes up a bit sensing his unease. The woman's blue eyes opened and her wings shifted. "Domino?" She cups his cheek and gives him a soft loving kiss. "Domino I knew when I met you, knew probably since birth what was going to happen. But instead of dwelling on that, let's just enjoy our lives to the fullest." She smiles at him. She has no regrets about any of it. Though there was always the chance that his life was extended through the link with her. "I love you, always have and always will. I love our family even if they are strange to the rest of the world. We have done so much with our lives already I can't wait to see how the rest plays out as long as I'm with you when it happens,". ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Domino: His eyes were filled with tears and he can't add much to what she said, so he just holds her close, kisses her, and says "Thank you Angel... yes let's cherish our time together, and I promise to never, never forget what a beautiful person you really are." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Angel: "I won't give you reason to forget." She smiles at him and wipes away the tears that were forming in his eyes. "You aren't the only one thankful for the other being around. Thank you for being my life, for being with me through thick and thin. Thank you for our beautiful children and grand children and so on and so forth. Thank you for all of these life experiences and for being strong where even the strongest of supernatural beings would have crumbled. And thank you for not taking on all of the burdens by yourself and making me feel helpless,". She holds him and nuzzles her face into his chest. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Domino: He knows she can hear his heart beating in his chest, a relatively young and strong heart right now. He holds her close and breathes in her scent. "I could never have accomplished much without you Angel you are my life as well" "Thank you for everything" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Angel: All of the hugging and squeezing was wonderful. Though she's pretty pregnant and well... squeezing plus baby already on her bladder. "Domino? I have to go potty,". Definitely a mom, they are the only ones that still say potty after the age of 10. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Domino: "Oh ok Angel" He figured out why and is still very happy even when she has to get up. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Angel: She can still move it pretty good and bolts out of bed to get to the bathroom, barely making it. After a while there's a flush and her washing her hands, drying them and then crawling back into bed. "I suddenly want spinach and cucumbers,". She ignores the cravings which isn't unusual. She'd rather curl up with Domino who after these nightmares and self realizations that were depressing she feels needs her more than she needs strange things to eat. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Domino: That combination actually sounds good" "You know you could put the spinach in an omelette then have the cool cucumbers on the side and nobody would realize you're even having cravings" He does love having her company and her very presence comforts him and calms him and is pushing the bad feelings of the nightmares and realizations from his mind and they're replaced by a warm contentment of having her close. However he needs to use the restroom too and clean up. "Maybe we should both get up so you can eat and I can go take a shower" He smiles happily kisses her one more time on her forehead then gets up. |

LG: He looked to Domino, and then around the room when he spoke. "Every place has a dark." "Every where and every when." He raised a brow at the kid on the hair comment, and absently fiddled with it. He only managed the make it even more of a mess than it had been before. At the offer of a drink he gave an almost imperceptible shake of his head, apparently absorbed in mentally calculating the rooms dimensions. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Vilarus: "Suit yourself," Vilarus however was attacking the bar and rather happily. That camera still zooming about with magic. Angel was just snuggling up to her husband and finally sees this doctor person. "Hello sir. Is there something we can help you with?" And somewhere there's a pulse coming from a hidden part of the wall. There is a dimensional and temporal anomaly there. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ LG: His distraction isn't complete enough to ignore a greeting. That insanely bright smile found it's place again and he turned to Angel. "Oh, hello! I'm John, pleasure to meet you, and you..." He trails off, eyes cutting toward the wall, brow furrowed. "Oooh and what's this then?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Angel: "My name is Angel" the name suits her appearance. She and Vilarus looked at the door. They looked at each other. Both paling. Vilarus then moves the camcorder to Angels hands and he heads out hoping to intercept Jason in the process. Meanwhile the anomaly only grows stronger. And there is this almost sense of foreboding coming from the thing as the gateway, and doorway opens up. It just opens much like how one would hear an old spaceship like door open up revealing a laboratory that was far ahead of it's time. There inside at the center? Was a tube with a woman in it in a green yet clear liquid in the fetal position, hovering in the middle of it. A pair of wings which instead of coming out of the back, shrink into it. Retractable. Holographic monitors all over the place revealing massive amounts of brain activity, nominal health, and the pointy eared head started lifting up. Whatever she was she was waking up. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ LG: He of course, noticed the general drop in mood. But, being who he was, he couldn't really resist... "Ahh, a temporal lab, and look, buttons." He turned to grin at Angel. "I love buttons." He moved toward the doorway, but not into it yet. If the side he stood on happened to be the side closest to the closet he came out of, well, that was just luck, wasn't it? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Celest: Angel only nodded about that. "That... it's ... she shouldn't be alive" Meanwhile The figure stands up, naked and looking much like an elf at that. Then the liquid drains away and the top opens up, the figure stands on the small platform. And The figure there was full of just ... well whatever she was she had a great deal of ability with tempooral and dimensional magic and not only that but psionics. The hair was dripping wet and fairly long and silvery white, the skin, flawless. The eyes opened up and were a neon green. Looking out of the lab. "It's been a while since a Doctor has been near me," She'd once been called the good doctor until her geis for needing to know everything lead her to do less than desirable experimentation. She seems to be rather much so a cold hearted person. Also unashamed of her body as she then heads to a part of her lab that has what could only be described as albino Pikachu like rodents running in a giant generator. Then part of the Nexus lab opens and reveals clothes, nothing special, comfortable jeans a tank top and a long white lab coat and a pair of unneeded glasses. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ LG: He heard Angel, but didn't comment. He watched the woman, taking in her form, her lab, cataloging everything. There wasn't any reaction in him at her using his title, which he hadn't giving yet in this realm. Being legend and myth in so many places, it never surprises him when someone knows who he is. "Why, do you need a doctor?" His voice had changed, no longer playful, but quiet and reserved. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Celest: Angel decided to wander off about this time she needed to warn the rest of the family that Celest was back. She grins and comes out of the lab. The grin held slight fangs to it. "No. If I managed to copy myself and come back from the dead I think I am adequate enough. You are curious of the nexus lab are you. The lab between worlds. Most are. Cures for diseases, inventions that will stand the test of time, magic, psionics, and most importantly ingenuity. All in a single place." Including genetics and the like. "Just what brings a time and dimension hopper like you here?" Hands in her pockets as she looks him right in the eyes. She's a mere 5'2 but her presence... that was something else entirely. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
