In Darkness

Hunter for a moment looked at her sword before she attacked again. It was still shining...but she wasn't facing the light anymore. The light almost looked...pink? Okay this is getting just a little weird...but maybe..Sieg.'

At the mere thought of her mate she blushed again, and to her surprise the sword's 'light trick' followed suit and became a darker shade of pink. Then Hunter realized what it meant. "It responds to my emotions. Cool." she said aloud

She then looked up at Sieg still blushing and said "This sword is great Sieg...thank you."

Tex wasn't aware that Dante was starting to get edgy towards Rocker, but she was becoming giddy with anticipation of what was coming. However after several minutes of walking she was starting to get bored and said "Where are we going anyway?"

Rocker turned to face her as he stopped in front of a door that read "Cryo storage"

"And we've arrived." as Rocker opened the door he smiled a toothy almost arrogant grin as he said "Tex say hello to your baby sister...again." And there in a room covered in ice and steam was a tube holding none other than Tex's little sister.

Tex was beside herself with joy. She immediately became teary eyed and started crying again.

Sieg smiled at Hunter, saying...
"You're very welcome, Hunter. I made the enchantments myself. It'll never break either, so you don't have to worry about that..."

Dante looked at Halley, and smiled...
"So...she's been in cryo this whole time? That's...well, I guess that's a good thing, hu, Tex?"

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #562 on:** June 18, 2008, 12:40:18 AM

"What did you use to make the sword glow like this?" asked Hunter with curiosity in her voice. "It seems to respond to my emotions...and...I'm feeling kinda good right now."

_____________

Tex stopped sobbing for a moment and squeaked "I-is she...still..."

Rocker cut her off by saying "Alive...technically no..." But then his face brightened as he continued.

"We've developed a new serum that is supposed to bring the dead, or comatose back to the world of the living...and so far Halley has been the only subject we've had. And the only way for this to work is if we had a small sample of your or Deva's blood."

Hunter for a moment looked confused, then horrified and finally her face just became stock as she held Deva in her arms thinking about what she was doing.

'This is nuts. For so long I thought my sister had died...but here she is...and all they need to bring her back is a drop of my blood. But he said Deva too...maybe her blood...NO! She' a newborn...I won't let them near her...my blood will have to do!'

She then stuck her arm out and said "Okay take my blood...and you'd better pray this works."

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #563 on:** June 18, 2008, 11:27:10 PM

"It's a basic light-bending spell. Though..getting it to react to your emotions took some tampering."
Sieg replied, seeming rather pleased with himself...
____________________________________________________________________

"A...amazing. She can be brought back? This is really...great news."
Dante finally stammered...

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #564 on:** June 19, 2008, 12:13:30 AM

Hunter smiled lovingly into Sieg's eyes and said "I'm sure it did...now would you like to help me take down Lady over here, so she can stop waving that rocket launcher in my face!"

Hunter then raised the sword and swung it down with all her might towards Lady.

______________________

"Now Dante I never said this would be a 100% guarentee, but it should work for the most part."

Tex handed Deva over to Dante and stuck her arm out again as she replied "It had better work...or you WILL become sterile!"

Rocker gulped and said "I will do my best." He then pulled out a syringe and stuck into Tex's arm and they both winced in response.

Tex frowned as she saw her blood being drawn, but after a moment or two it was done.

Rocker pulled the syringe out, covered Tex's wound with some gauze and walked over to a computer terminal and inserted the blood sample into the computer.

And then several lights began to shine from the console and the stasis tube as well.

Then something happened inside the tube..something only Tex saw...Halley opened her eyes...

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #565 on:** June 19, 2008, 12:37:26 PM

"Sure thing, Hunter!"
Sieg agreed, lunging with his own blade ready...
____________________________________________________________________

Dante shielded his eyes the best he could while holding Deva, nearly blinded by the lights.
"Is-Is it working?"
He asked...

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #566 on:** June 19, 2008, 11:25:02 PM

Hunter smiled and said "Hey Lady, try to dodge this!" She then used her feet to jump into the air and swung her sword towards Lady with several quick movments.

__________________________

Hunter was too stunned and although she heard Dante she was in no position to respond. She was still staring into the cryo tube that held her sister.

Rocker was confused as he wathced the screen in front of him. Then the computer made a sound he was hoping for...a loud and ear pericing ping.

At that point the door to the tube opened and a cold mist filled the room.

Hunter took a step back as she stuttered "H-h-h..."

The ted and pink Stegasuarus stepped out and smiled despite being in the nude and said "Hi sis...long time no see."

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #567 on:** June 21, 2008, 12:53:06 AM

Lady easily dodged and weaved through Hunter's strikes, though several slashed rents into her shirt.
"Darn it, Hunter! You messed up my favorite shirt. Ok, no more Ms. Nice Lady!"
She yelled, firing a rocket at Hunter, knowing that she couldn't stop it form where she was.
That is, until a bullet struck the rocket and detonated it a few feet out of the barrel. Sieg stood to the side, holding Hunter's gift revolver...
____________________________________________________________________

"It has been a long time...Hex. Remeber me? Dante. Nice to see you again."
Dante said, stepping forward, still cradling Deva in his arms, and smiling...

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #568 on:** June 21, 2008, 01:06:23 AM

Hunter was stunned...she couldn't believe that Lady had actually tried to shoot her with a rocket! She looked over and smiled as she saw Sieg holding the pistol she'd brought him and she smiled.

"Good timing as usual dear." she called out as she threw the sword with all her might towards Lady's rocket.

______________________

Halley smiled and said "Well, if it isn't Dante. Nice to see you again."

She then looked down at the baby in his hands and asked "Ohh, what a sweet little baby, is she yours?"

Tex however was now on her knees crying as Deva smiled and giggled at the new face.

Rocker then said "Hello Hex...welcome back."

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #569 on:** June 22, 2008, 01:00:16 PM

"I learned from the best, my love."
Sieg quipped back, grinning...

Lady dodged the sword just in time, but her rocket launcher was cleanly sliced in two.
"Gah! Hunter! That was so uncalled for!"
She yelled rolling out of the way and grabbing a short dagger from her boot...
____________________________________________________________________

"Yeah. Well, she's Tex's, at least. Her name's Deva."
Dante said, still amazed to see someone who was recently thought dead in front of him...

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #570 on:** June 22, 2008, 05:41:42 PM

Hunter giggled and said "Well, at least the fight is now fair..to a degree!" she then took up a battle stance and said "Come on Lady, try to move a little bit faster this time, so I can actually break a sweat!"

'I'll have to go back and get that sword later.' Thought Hunter to herself not wanting to forget it.

________________

Deva smiled again and giggled.

Rocker smiled and said "Well glad to see it worked." But before he continued he walked over to Tex, and picked her up by her wrists and said "Stop crying. Right now. You may be shocked and that's fine, but don't go getting a mental breakdown now!"

He let Tex go and she slumped to her knees and still continued to cry. Rocker stepped back and said "Buff it...I tried." He then looked over to Hex and Dante as he said "I'm going for coffee and food, can I get you two anything?"

Hex smiled and said "Well, if you can get me a cheeseburger I'll be grateful! Oh and a root beer!"

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #571 on:** June 22, 2008, 10:35:39 PM

Sieg grinned, and made a simple beckoning motion with his hand, then pointed at Hunter. The blade hovered up and returned to it's scabbard with a soft whooshing sound.
"Don't worry about losing it either. You can simply call it back to yourself. Just beckon with your hand, and it'll return to you if it can."
He said, grinning...
____________________________________________________________________

"C'mon Tex. You don't want your sister to think you've lost it, do you?"
Dante walked over to Tex, kneeling next to her...

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #572 on:** June 23, 2008, 01:07:46 AM

Hunter stood still for a moment digesting what Sieg had just told her....and she gave a devious, child like smile as she giggled and said "Is there anything that you DIDN'T do to this sword Sieg? I'm going to have so much fun with this thing!"

____________________

Tex was still sobbing as she nodded her head to Sieg, and she opened her eyes to look upon Hex once again. She with slow stumbling steps walked over to her sister and clung to her like a life raft.

'S-she's....warm...she...she's really...really here...' thought Tex

Halley smiled and said "Its okay Tex. I'm not mad at you...you're my sister...I'll always stand beside you. No matter what happens. Okay?"

Tex smiled and nodded her head again, not yet having the will to speak. Hex then said "I'm glad to see you started a family. Little Deva is yours huh?"

Tex then said "Y-yeah...halley...I...I thought...I'd never see you again. I promise to take better care of you from now on little sis."

Tex then looked at Dante and blushed as she stood up. "Thanks. I needed the help Dante. How is Deva?"

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #573 on:** June 23, 2008, 11:41:10 AM

Sieg thought for a moment, then grinned rougishly and replied...
"Well, let's see. I didn't seal a soul into the blade, and I didn't make it have a bloodlust, but other than those, it has every enchantment I know how to do. Not easy, I'll tell you..."
He said, smiling at Hunter...
"Yeah. Real cute. If you two are done flirting, we are still fighting, right?"
Lady asked, lunging towards Sieg...
____________________________________________________________________

"It's no problem...Tex"
Dante said, then offered their daughter to her.
"Deva's fine. See for yourself..."

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #574 on:** June 23, 2008, 12:47:28 PM

Hunter smiled and giggled as she heard Sieg speak. "Every single enchantment...that must be what like a thousand?"

But she then jumped forward pulling her sword out of its sheith and blocking Lady's knife as she retorted "Sorry, but no we're not done flirting, and besides, you need a real hobby!"

________________________

Tex took Deva in her hands and immediately the baby clung to her mothers neck and started to cry.

At that moment Rocker came through the door with a fully cooked cheeseburger a mug of Root Beer and a baby bottle. He smiled and said "Yeah, I thought Deva might need this."

He handed the food off to Halley and gave the bottle to Tex and she put the bottle near Deva's mouth and she started feeding.

Inbetween a bite Hex asked "Where did you get that milk anyway?"

Rocker immediately blushed and said "w-we keep a s-storage unit here full of nursing milk."

Hex smiled and said "You're lying." She turned to Dante and said "Go ask him where he really got that milk."

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #575 on:** June 23, 2008, 03:07:49 PM

"Oh, I have a hobby alright! Mind you, that hobby is fighting, but still, It's a hobby!"
Lady quipped, swinging her leg towards Hunter, only to have it blocked by Sieg...
____________________________________________________________________

"Rocker..."
Dante said, narrowing his eyes dangerously...

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #576 on:** June 23, 2008, 04:10:05 PM

Hunter smiled and said "That's not a hobby..that's just something you do for fun!"
She then threw a punch at Lady aiming for her face.

Rocker shifted nervously on both his feet before saying "Okay..if I tell you all...you have to promise that my wounds will heal in a few days? Deal?"

Tex and Hex giggled and said at the same time "Yes, we promise."

"Okay...well...uhhh...while you were...in a coma Hex...I-I uhh...hehe...I've been using your breast milk."

Hex blushed...for the first time actually looking herself over and realizing she was nude.

Tex smiled and said "You're lucky I'm holding Deva or I would've slapped you by now!"

Rocker however wasn't done. "I mean I did it for a good cause...Hex your body was still functioning and ....why...let all that...good milk go to waste, as we do have two nurseries here almost full at any given time." He blushed as he said "And...the staff said they...wanted REAL milk...so...heh...sorry."

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #577 on:** June 23, 2008, 06:23:14 PM

"Whoa! That was too close!"
Lady said, dodging back nimbly...
____________________________________________________________________

"You...What?"
Dante stammered...

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #578 on:** June 24, 2008, 12:53:06 AM

Hunter smiled as she watched Lady move out of the way. She then said "Oh come on Lady, fight like you have some spirit left in ya! I'm getting bored already!"

________________________

Rocker just blushed and stared at the ground. He felt bad, but knew what he had done was the right call. Then he heard laughter.

It was coming from Hex! She was laughing so hard she was crying...it was an odd sight.
She then stood up and said "Okay, fair enough Rocker. I understand where you're coming from. Besides..." she then walked over and raised Rockers head so they were eye level, and said "...those babies are probably thanking you right now..."

Hex then turned to show off her cleavage and said "Someone had to do the hard work right?"

Tex then giggled at her sister and said "I missed your passive demeanor ya know?"

Hex nodded and replied "I know...now how about some clothes....a girl could catch a clod in here?"

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #579 on:** June 24, 2008, 11:08:31 PM

"You wanna see spirit? Ok, here you go!"
Lady spun low to the ground, bringing her leg up to trip Hunter while simeltaneously aiming a punch at her head...

"Here. Put this on, at least..."
