Changes


(Lucas arrive to the sightseeing all the dead jaco and the dark figure guy)

(-Lucas in his mind: Well i think I'm late to the party. Well then guess no reward for me then. It's interesting these cuts couldn't be done by him)

(U begins to breath black smoke and slowly rises. His arms seem to have hardened and become thorny.)

U: - Whispers to himself- Don't... Lose... Don't... Break ...now

(Back at the tree, Lucy pulls Joss back into hiding)

Lucy:- whispers to them- It's the venom from the Jacos, it makes any person hallucinate and then leaves you paralyze... Thing is Papa can only feel the Hallucination... He can't be paralyzed but the hallucinations make everyone to him seem like his worst enemy... His kind. I'm extremely allergic to them and I will go into a cardiac arrest. The stings are affecting him a lot because when he is on the offense, his bodies ... Umm... Anatomy.. Changes. He becomes vulnerable to anything. He turns solid.

Joss:...there is no way stop him? Does he have a weakness?

Lucy: I never tried to fight papa ... I just can't do that to him. So I just run away from him until it wears off. But this time... 10 of them stung him.

Joss: This will be hard. What if he finds us?

Lucy: Well... He will be on the offensive, that's good for us because he is solid. You two can take him down.... He's my dad... I can't attack him - holds her hands together-

Arabella: 'Don't worry Lucy. We'll try our hardest to hold him off.'

(U turns around and sees in the middle of the swamp Lucas observing the environment)

U: Don't.... Break.... Don't... Don't... Let ... him live

(Lucas start looking around and then he steps and close his eyes and sense everyone around energy and then looks at the shadow guy)

U: You ... Won't... Take her from Me!!!

(Thorns get bigger and then all the shadow from the surroundings get consumed then he dash in a blink of an eye towards Lucas, claws stretched out and pointed at him.)

(Lucas then surround itself in energy and transform it into Zero g making the area gravity like space U then float toward up Lucas)

(He falls into the zero G and tries to get down. The confusion in the ability and his hallucination don't coincide)

U: Wait... What? ... How? ... We can't... - Continues to fight his mind- Aaah it's not real!!!

Lucas: Well what's come up..

Lucas: must come down. (Lucas then transform the energy to 8 g-force)

(U Falls to the group and some of the shadow mist disperse itself)

U: The ... Stings... Help.

Lucas: Uhh? Stings? Looks at the jacos..ohh right

(Lucas then looks for meds in his backpack while still emitting the g-force)

Lucas: Well he's clearly not paralyzed so it must be..

(He then injects U on the shoulder to neutralizes the effects)

Lucas: And here I thought I wouldn't need this. Well better thanks the villagers.

(Joss hears something where U was and decides to take a few steps outside while taking cover behind the trees. He sees a strange figure alongside with U)

(U begins to calm down as the injection takes effect. His body smoothen and the excess shadow falls off.)

(Lucy hugs onto Arabella and her eyes filled with tears)

(Joss watches as U calms down and takes a stick in his left hand and walks towards U.)

Joss: Are you ok U?

(Lucas breathe deeply for a moment until it returns to normal and sees Joss)

Lucas: He's gonna be all right.. you and the other did right hiding for that moment

(Joss hides the stick)

Joss: Thanks for the help mister...?

Joss: What's your name???

Lucas: It's Lucas. What's yours? And this fellow?

Joss: Well thanks Lucas. My name is Joss and this person is called U. How do you get here?

Arabella: (She picks up Lucy and cautiously walks over to where U and the rest of them are but keeping a safe distance from them all.) 'So, we have furries now? Cool.'

(U relaxing, takes a deep breath and rises)

U: My apologies to everyone ... That's the effects of a Jaco sting. Hallucinations... And other symptoms. Thank you, friend... Lucas was it?

Lucas: well I was sent to take care of the jacos it has destroy several villages farms. I was actually thinking of relocating but too late for that ha-ha...o hey there U feeling better? And yes that the name.

(sees Arabella and Lucy) Hey there! The name Lucas

U: Yes, I'm better.

(Lucy cleans her eyes and looks at U)

Lucy: Yay, papa is better now. Thank you, Lucas.

Lucas: No problem ha-ha. So, all of you are in a team or something?

Joss: Well for the time being. Do you know of a city or place we can go?

Lucas: Well there are some villages close by but I think is better if we make it to the capital. Depends of the time.

(Joss looks at U)

Joss: Well U, what do you recommend us?

U: Mmm the capital? Sounds good. You can make some money there and ... I believe that it would be right for me to find you a place to get situated.

Joss: Well the capital it is! Can you lead the way???

Arabella: 'Mr. U, what are sone things we can expect at the capital? And hello Lucas.'

U: Well I know several ways to the capital but maybe Lucas knows a ... -clears his throat- safer route. - turns his attention towards Arabella- The capital, is a safe place, that's for sure. Basically, anything that you can imagine of normal folks. Maybe we can encounter an elite. Lucy loves seeing them come by.... Oh, and food ... Plenty of fooood... Yes, I'm hungry.

Joss: Well Sir Lucas, can you show us the "safe route" to the capital? I want to buy some things there and eat too.

Arabella: 'Are there any book shops around there? I want to see if there are any books on the different biomes and animal anatomy from this place. And maybe find sone maps, and armor...' (She thought with a starry look in her eyes.) 'Oh! Lucy are you ok?'

Lucy: Yea I'm ok... I just panic when i see a Jaco. I'm still trying to overcome my fear and i just got worried about papa.

U: All the above, there are plenty of shops and libraries in the capital... The best of the best.

Joss: When can we go?

Lucas: Lets go through the area call grim path cause is a great resource area fill fruits and drinkable water

Lucas: Either way is a hour to get there

Joss: It looks like a great idea! Let's go!

(The group follows Lucas on their safe journey. Arabella and Joss intrigued, yet, confused, place their trust in their new companions. Joss listening to his music while Arabella continues strengthening her bond with Lucy. After an hour of travelling the group reach Grim Path.)

(Lucy runs through the trees and frolicking around in cat form. U collects some berry and other fruit strange fruits.)

Lucas: Well welcome to the grim path everybody! I recommend the purple melons don't take them when they blue cause its means not ready to eat

Arabella: 'Mr. U, how did you create Lucy? Was it some kind of magic?'

Joss: Can we eat this berries U?

(Joss points at some of the berries located in a bush)

'Oh, and Lucas, what are the different types of poisonous plants around the area?'

U: - Drops some berries- Create? Magic? What do you mean by that? - chuckles and looks at Joss- Uumm this is Grim Path; it is known for its safest and most delicious crops. The river nearby comes from the Utaki Mountain. The purist of streams and the healthiest.

Lucas: He's right so there's nothing to worry about the only reason they call it the grim path it's because one of the way this path take us is the child forest and everybody knows what happens in there.

Joss: Interesting... and you Lucas, do you know well this place? Can you show me the variety of the plants here? I need to do a little research of the effects they have.

Arabella: 'Well U, I mean you obviously didn't procreate with another of your species, because of your intangibility. Unless it's possible? Will it be possible for you to explain how the procreation of your species is like? I am very interested in knowing.' (She says with a hopeful look in her eyes.)

(Joss begins to walk near the others while tasting different types of berries and herbs)

Joss: Mmmmm... this berry seems helpful...

U: Uuum... Eh well I think we will leave my species for.. Another time - Timidly giggles- As for my darling... Yes, you are right that she isn't of my blood, but I raised her off of the streets or better off saying Forrest as my own. She was abandoned by her own blood. So I took her under my shadow.

Arabella: 'Wow. That's very noble of you Mr. U. I have a couple of questions for you, Lucas and Lucy. Would you mind if I asked?'

U: Ask away!! Not really going to leave you in the dark ...

(Joss stops for a moment, then he takes out his earphones and begins to listen to what everyone is talking)

Arabella: 'Well going to ask for something honestly. Can you give me a brief overview of what species Lucy and you are? I would like to learn a bit from both of you just in case I might be able to help both of you out, in the medical sense, and what both of you are considered in this world.' (She says with a renewed look of determination in her eyes.)

Arabella: 'Can you give me a brief overview of what species you are? Because you look a lot more like an animal and back where I'm from I'm an animal doctor.'

(Lucas went to joss)

Lucas: I know the common types of plants, oh, and that berry you was looking the roots are used for cuts and bruises

Joss: Thanks a lot Lucas! You really had helped me. Can you keep teaching me?

(Joss quickly ate the berry and the root)

Joss: Fuck! This is so bitter!

U: Well Lucy's kind are as normal as it can be. Here you will find plenty of species of different races and times. Lucy are a race of Anthropomorphic being. In her case, the cat. All of what the World provides. I am a Mimic... Plain and simple as that. But I'm more special than the rest of my kind...

Lucy: So as for providing medical attention for us... Only an expert Doc can tell. Every species is different and most organic crop of World is affected differently for all; some might work on all of us at once. Some only for my kind or for you.

Lucas: That the downside. Mostly of them except some berries and leaf taste badly

Arabella: 'Damn......is there anywhere I could learn to be able to take care of Lucy better? Or any type of animal anthropomorphic being?'

Lucy: - turns into a cat and climbs onto Arabella- If not, Magic!! - purrs-

Joss: Damn man! You should've told me that.

(Joss says that while putting funny faces)

Joss: Another question Lucas, do you have names for the abilities that one can have?

Lucas: Sorry about that and well yeah.. us hunters use it to mostly describe the moves people used but don't go screaming it in a fight unless it's a chanting or spell

Joss: Interesting mmmm... and what's the name of your ability if I may know?

Lucas: Well the two ability I used when U got stung are form the same based, I can turn a radius of life energy into types of G-forces. and Arabella what was the questions again?

Joss:Mmmm... Well I'm thinking in naming my abilities too.

(Joss looks to the sky for a moment then with conviction says the name)

Joss: My first abilities' name will be The eyes of Herophile!

(Then he looks at his left hand and grips and lifts it)

Joss: And my second ability will be called Blood Creation.

Lucas: Interesting Joss and why you decide to call them that way?

Joss: Well The Eyes of Herophile, I chose that name because from where I come, he is known as the father of Anatomy and since I can see the anatomy of things I dissect like animals or things I eat, well, I decided to call it like that. And the second one well, (Joss smiles), because for some strange reason I'm able to create scalpels using my blood and another object.

U: Arabella's question was, what species are you and how can she be a possible health assistance in future situation? Lucas. - looks at Arabella- his kind is also a type of Anthropomorphic being.

Lucas: Aah so you like the Deadmen type those who can control their blood interesting and yes well the most difficult part is the biomecha like my arm but in the rest I'm a tŷgrizz

Joss: Deadmen??? What is that? Is that a clan or special people?

Lucas: It's more like a characteristic and a clarification

Joss: Mmmmm... U, do you know anything of this Deadmen?

U: Hhmm I believe I have, but not sure. I believe they are just like any other race. Does who take the life force of others and use into their advantage, but they are considered soulless being that seem alive. It's hard to tell.

(Joss face rapidly changed. He looked at U with sadness)

Joss: U it is normal to see or hear things?

U: You mean like spirits or ghost... Yes, they are another race here. One of the strongest warlocks is a phantom... And a damn good one.

(Lucy rises her ears )

Lucy: Mmm Banshee... He is sooo dreamy -purrs even more-

Joss:....g-ghosts??? Can they affect us?

U: Not as much as a malicious spirit. That's what everyone thinks that I am. Spirits you can see clearly, phantoms can be in both stages of life at the same time and ghost ... Usual just do mind games but don't really harm.... Some

(Joss looks at the ground for a moment then he raises his head)

Joss: Do they have a weakness?

U: Hhhmm that, I'm not sure of.

Arabella: (Looks at Lucy with incredulity.) You like this warlock called a banshee? Then I'd like to meet them, although the name comes the idea that they are very loud.'

Lucy: Oh, nooo he just likes to be called banshee or wraith... Both are spirits of sound, but he doesn't project sound - giggles-

U: ... And to find Him isn't an easy task. His race is few. Does who live as long as he is considered spirits of destruction right now. So, they lock themselves away from society to avoid ... Using their abilities. Sooo that's an adventure in itself.

(Joss stares for a moment then he smiles at U)

Joss: Thanks U! I think I will be doing some gathering here. Let me know when we are ready to go to the capital.

Arabella: 'Well, that's something to put on the to do list. Oh, and U what type of government is there at the capital? If I like, wanted to buy things or take a few lessons in the things of this world, would there be any problems with the people leading it?'

U: Well you can just join into any study. It's free for those who feel for learning. Our government is certain type of Monarchy, our Queen Monika is very sweet and modest.

(Lucas start seeing strange at Joss for a moment)

Lucas: Well time to get going everyone. Everyone all set?

Joss: Yes, I am.

(The group continue their travel to the Capital. They traverse across the valley of Grim, the field filled with ghost and spirits of the cunning and the brave. Lucas and U explain to the group how to react to their new experience, the spirits wave and salute to them as they passed along the path. Now 3 pm the group reach the elongated bridge of the Capital)

U: -takes a deep breath- Welcome everyone to the CAPITAL!! Of Rhindelm

(Joss is filled with hope as he reaches the gate. He looks at the trail he just walked and then face straightforward)

Joss: It is time now...

Arabella: (She looks on ahead with an air of determination and excitement for all the new things she will be able to learn.) 'I can't wait for the adventures ahead. You ready Lucy?'

Lucy: Yes Yes yeeeess!!! (Lucy Runs up ahead in cat form and heads into town)
