    Spunk Ransom helped out a lot with the story and stuffs. :=D: Although the title is kinda...lame. <-<

    Story

    In the city Sy’ran, an enormously powerful group named the Vereor guarded a special power source, a young woman by the name of Ayama. Although this power source on its own was barely any danger, it had the potential to give regular humans abnormal abilities. These abilities being the thing that the receiver craved most in life. This secret was well kept until two thieves somehow managed to steal this power source. Upon using the power source’s own ability they were marked with a symbol of their transformation. The Seikou. After the two had gained their powers, the power source left their possession and soon others found that they too had the Seikou on their skin. These humans became known as the Isei, although they had gained power, they were marked for death, for the Vereor would not allow any others to gain such abnormal abilities. Armed with weapons and strength, possibly several times greater than the Isei, they began hunting them down one by one, saving their worst punishment for the two that stole their precious power source.

    Terms in the RP

    Isei ~ Those that were given a power by the power source named Amaya. Since they’re still human, they have free will and do what they wish with their ability, be it good or evil.

    Seikou ~ A mark on the body only found on the Isei.
    [​IMG]
    Credit for the image goes to Spunk Ransom.

    Vereor ~ The Vereor are stronger and faster than ordinary humans and carry a staff that temporarily neutralizes an Isei’s abilities when it makes contact.

    Rules

    1. Obviously, no godmodding or power playing.
    2. Only one power per Isei.
    3. You better have good grammar. Seriously.
    4. Please stay active. If ya need a recap, someone will gladly give you one. Or else.
    5. Avoid automatically hitting another character without giving them a chance to at least react in some way.
    6. Three characters max. That’s all. If you let your character die, then you can replace him/her without it counting against you.
    7. Don’t use *’s for actions. That’s simple, right?
    8. Don’t make your character a complete know-it-all. Basically, don’t make your characters know about things that they shouldn’t understand.
    9. Don’t make this RP go over PG-13 stuff. If you wanna do “more” then take it to PM with the RPer’s consent.
    10. I can add more rules at any time. And I won’t bother adding one of those, “Put *this* in your post so I know you read the rules.” thing. If you didn’t read the rules, too bad.
    11. Oh, and Vereor’s are stronger than the Isei, don’t kill one as if their nothing more than a wimp. :B|:
    12. Last rule. If your character is an Isei, put where their Seikou mark is under the “Other” section. Also you can just add pretty much whatever else you want under “Other”.

    You both are in. *Will edit Meeshy in after this gets posted* XD I'll just start this...<<

    IC: Alan stared down at the near empty sidewalk, watching as people began appearing on the streets, every once in awhile a car would pass by. The rising Sun reminded him that it was safe once more to freely roam the city...if he moved about in crowded areas where it would be hard for the Vereor to track him. He rested his hands on the railing of the fire escape stairs, wondering where Melissa was at that moment. Although he knew it was foolish to worry about someone who could take care of themselves, she was still his friend. Better get moving... He thought to himself, turning around and going through a window of his "borrowed" apartment. City life was fun to a certain extent and usually consisted of hiding, running, and the occasional fight...for his kind anyways.

    OOC: Bad starting post. DX But I had to get this alive again. 8D

    Melissa walked cautiously through a semi-crowded street. Ever since the "incident" she felt more aware of herself. She felt that people were always looking at her. Not only at her, but on her forehead. Where she hid, what she thought to be a curse and a blessing. She walked slowly, trying to locate a place to stay for the night, while the whole time thinking, Maybe I could just come up with a fake identity. Then I would not have to deal with being paranoid every second of the day. She thought that often, but she never actually put her plan into play. A small, empty looking house came into view. She quietly, peeked inside, finding it empty. She walked in and sat down on an old couch that had probably been there for atleast twenty years.

    Seth walked down the street walking on the sidewalk. In his hand was a huge piece of bread that he was eating. Unlike most of Seth's food this piece of bread was given to him instead of stolen. It feels nice to not steal for once Seth thought to himself as he walked down the street and took a bite of the bread

    Mona sat on the curb of the street, her legs hugged to her chest, and her chin resting on her knee. She had been traveling around the city for hours now, unsure if there was someone following her. In her attempts to lose any Vereor trackers, she had gotten lost herself. She had never been to this area of the city before, and she had no idea which way to go now. Cars past barely a foot in front of her. She was almost waiting for one to cross the line...

    Seth continued down the streets putting the bead away to eat for later. As he walked he looked at his right arm which was wrapped in bandages. Why does things like this happen to me. First mom and dad dies and now these guys are looking for me ready to kill me Seth thought to himself as tears started to form in his eyes but he immediately wiped them away No I have to act mature. No more crying Seth muttered to himself quietly

    The tea house that was located near the city entrance was quite busy as always. Natalie rushed through the people, serving them their tea and food as they all talked greatly about their journeys. As Natalie worked, she would usually have to keep an eye out on those Vereor people that often times would try and track her down. She was never really sure why they were after her but she assumed it was because of that power source she found that gave her that power of summoning Ripley and that strange mark on her back.

    To keep herself and the tea house safe from Vereors, Natalie would summon Ripley to guard the tea house from those strange people. She tried her best to keep her power secret from her family. Natalie had been planning to run away for quite some time but was never able to bring herself to leave.

    Alan lifted his chin, sniffing the morning air. He nearly coughed as a large truck passed by him leaving a cloud of smoke behind it. He stuffed his hands into his pockets and walked aimlessly around the city, thinking to himself about several things. He knew that the Vereor were hunting down their kind...but should Melissa and he even take responsibillity for what happened? It was their fault after all that they lost that thing and allowed others to gain abnormal abillities. "Whatever." He muttered under his breath as he adjusted his gloves. I wonder if those guys are evil...they're doing their job but the ones I've seen aren't exactly cruel... He shook his head and decided not to think too much about it, the Vereor wanted people like him dead so he shouldn't have to worry about right or wrong. It was all about surviving to see the next day.

    Aria walked down an alleyway, scratching the back of her head as she stared down at the pavement. After moving out of her parents' home, she knew she needed to find a job or something that would help her gain money. Although, the thought of being tracked down was always in her head. She found the Vereor rather annoying. But, she hasn't ran into one for awhile now. She was actually relieved and hoped it would stay that way. She doubted it, though. She never liked being chased. That feeling always bothered her somehow. Aria let out a quiet sigh as she stepped out of the alleyway and looked around the crowded streets. "Oh well." she muttered to herself as she began walking along the sidewalk.

    Melissa sat on the old couch. While doing so, an overwhelming sense of guilt flooded over her. She felt like everything that was going on with her, Alan, and all of the others who now had the Seikou was her fault. Why did we even do that? She questioned herself. It's caused so much trouble for so many. As she thought this she stood up and ran out the house, trying to run from her feelings, but it seemed that the running wasn't helping one bit. She stopped and looked at her surroundings. She didn't really know where she was, she was in a part of town that she never really went into and she had never really been great with directions. "Great...." She muttered to herself as she began walking aimlessly in the direction she thought was the way back to the old home.

    Seth continued to walk as he looked at his wrapped up arm. there must be a way for me to get rid off this...........yea if I manage to get rid of this then they will stop chasing me........but it looks like there is no way to get rid of it Seth thought to himself as he walked still looking at his arm. As Seth walked he suddenly bumped into Melissa and fell down

    "Hey, mom, my shift is over." Natalie called back into the kitchen as another waitress was about to take Natalie's place for the rest of the day. Usually during the time Natalie didn't have to work in the tea house, she would go into the city and try to find things to do.

    Today, thankfully, none of the Vereors tried to attack anywhere near the tea house. Soon enough Natalie found her way further inside the city, glancing over her shoulder every now and then to make sure she wasn't being followed. Natalie then sat down on a bench near a bus stop and she began to watch the traffic past by carelessly.

    He stopped walking, biting his lower hip as he thought of where to go. Alan knew his way around the city but without a destination, it was all pointless. My mind feels so blank right now... He groaned and walked near the edge of the sidewalk, hoping something would happen soon. Alan quickly glanced over his shoulder, almost getting the feeling he was being followed...then again, he always had that feeling.
