Name: Isis Pompadour "Isi" (Isis means "The Throne". The name is oddly fitting.)
Age: 17
Birthday: Stallion 17th
Class: Princess/Sovereign
Eye color: Her eyes are a blood red ,but when others that are around her get super negative or something her eyes glisten with yellow. So pretty much, the whites of her eyes turn a yellowish color.
Hair color: Tan blondish
Hometown: Atlantis. Atlantis is a big country/city that is quite legendary. Isis is next in line to reign over it. Anyway legend states that Atlantis was a sunken city. The legend also states that a mermaid race helped the queen at the time rise the city. The queen had to give their creator her virginity. She birthed a half-bred child ,and that child mated with a human and the chain continued.
Height: 5'6" not including her five inch heels.
Notes: Isis is part mermaid and her mother was too. Her mother was assassinated by a hate group. Isis is betrothed to Ezra and loves him passionately. She can't wait to marry him next year. She is not yandere ,but would do anything for Ezra. She knows that Ezra can like others too. So, if he does she leaves them alone because they make Ezra happy. She is a master strategist and does even better under pressure. She can easily predict what's going to happen for an entire day. She is tired of knowing everything ,but has the urge to know more. So, she sleeps a lot. She is sick of everything repeating its self. She doesn't know that she could go insane if her life continues to flow in the same pattern. The only thing that has kept her from becoming bonkers is Gears and how they are all so intimate with one another.
Pros: Isis is a master strategist, she is very intelligent and wise, she is kind.
Cons: Inclined toward insanity, she is quite selfish, I said she wasn't yandere ,but she would kill complete strangers for Ezra. Has a fear of the unknown.
Hobbies: Predicting the future and quenching her Ezra fetish.
This is it. I hate this website . The website requites that feeling too. I can tell. It takes out words in my stories or jumbles them up, and it doesn't let me upload pictures anymore. I only have one picture! That's the Marin picture I have. I think Marin wants to be some sort of lone picture wolf. Anyway… Um, yeah. I warned you last chapter. There's also depression in this. Read if you dare!
It was two in the morning ,and Isis sat at her desk. She flipped the page to Prophecy and held her head. It was rather strange. As she flipped the page she heard two voices echo in her head. She had not heard them ever before. She didn't predict them either. She sat still and decided to listen to them. One was hoarse and sounded like it belonged to a small boy. The other was vaguely familiar to Isis. It was a female's voice for sure.
"Isis?" The female's voice called out. "It is I. Your mother."
Isis examined her room closely, "Ezra, this isn't funny…" she muttered. The woman's voice laughed in response, and the hoarse one began to speak.
"That boy Ezra… Is he truly a god?" It inquired. Isis held her head and fearfully looked around.
"I must be going daft. I must be." She quivered."My mother died ten years ago."
There was a shrill scream from the main part of the inn. Isis had known that the spider laid eggs on Yoshiko.
"Answer my question little one." The hoarse voice demanded.
Isis teared up for a moment."No."She murmured. "This is a lie." Isis was growing frightened. She did not expect this to happen. So, she was shaking and trying to anticipate a force that she hadn't even heard of.
Isi's apparent mother made a dissatisfied noise. " I guess you were right Eldest One… A mere mortal like her will never become worthy enough to marry off a god like Ezra." She hissed.
Isis looked up,"I am worthy." she snapped back.
"Not in that form." The woman said. "You need to unlock your true form."
Isis grimaced. "What form?" Isi clenched her fist. Maybe the book was doing this to her… She regretted opening it for spilt second until she realized what the voices were trying to do. "Are you saying that there is a way for me to become immortal?"
"Ah… So now she gets it almighty Eldest One…" The woman took a breath. "You must complete the ritual." She giggled.
Isi looked down. "What that might that be?" She was sure if she could trust the woman or the Eldest One. She had just thought that she was going insane because she never truly accepted her mother's death. She was only seven. Matter of fact, it was her seventh birthday. She was with her mother and father. She remembered that her father had left them alone and her mother began to talk to her. Her mother suddenly turned toward the window and gasped. She covered Isi as the window broke. A duo , a man and a woman, had broken the window and stabbed Isi's mother to death in front of her. Ezra was there and he was about the same age. He still had basic knowledge of magic and he warded them off. Isis and Ezra had been betrothed ever since they were three. These two were the only ones who knew the faces of the couple that had killed Atlantis's queen. Isis knew that they escaped off to a foreign land because they were never executed for treason. She went off with Ezra for her own safety and to make new friends.
"You must become one of us." The woman giggled more. "In order to do that… You must eat several human beings." Those words thundered through Isi's head.
"Eat another person? That's-!" She gagged. "That is revolting!" Her shout could not be heard by the other members of Gears; RAGNAROK was screaming loudly.
"Do you not wish to save your own kind?" The woman appeared next to Isi in a ghostly form, "Do you not want to avenge your very own mother?" she was smiling at Isi ,but her eyes were cold and had hatred built up inside. Her eyes were the same color as Isi's and her hair was white with green and pink at the ends. Isis teared up and turned toward her.
"Mother…?" Isi covered her eyes; this was the first time she had cried in ages. She didn't know what to do. She knew her mother died, but she was there talking to her right then. Her mother embraced her.
"Isis, you can trust me. You must do this for my sake." The woman sighed happily at the sight of her daughter. "I already arranged this. Isis, you will devour the carcasses of the two who murdered me."
"How? Are they here?"
Isi's mother's smile turned into a smirk. "They sought refuge here in Armoroad. They are very distantly related to the princess here, and can apparently hear what the Yggdrasil can say." She laughed some. "No one believed the last part. They have been living in poverty with a ten year-old daughter and a five year-old son." She still held her daughter close. "You must give them two priceless items for their children and take away the only priceless thing they have to return…"
Isis sighed,"Their lives." she finished the sentence. She took a short breath and pulled away form her mother. "I cannot bring myself to commit cannibalism."
Her mother was just so giggly at the time. She went on a giggling frenzy. "Isis, do not be silly. It is not cannibalism, for you are not human. Start your awakening at seven o' six."
Isi gave a wry smile,"So, I must devour them at seven o' six… That's six hours and sixty-six minutes. Is that for humor?"
"Sure Isis. Now get to your bed. You must rest before you start your trial."
"Yes,mother."
Haruka was in the living room of her house with Magnum ,Rai, and Brac. She invited them over so they could give her advice on the situation she was dealing with. Haruka's green eyes were teary and her blond hair was glistening in the dim light of a mere candle. Magnum lived with Haruka. They were married for more than twenty years. Magnum had purple hair and eyes. He was trying to comfort his wife. Rai lounged on one of the couches with a displeased expression on her face. She had purple eyes that were covered by her huge Harry Potter sized glasses, and her hair was in a sleek brown ponytail. Brac rested next to his wife, he was was very built and had red hair and brown eyes.
Haruka had been having all sorts of dreams of RAGNAROK dying and felt the need to do something about it.
"I should have thought this would happen." Rai kicked one of Haruka's footrests. "Haruka, how many times must I bring this up?" Rai was irritated. She got up from the couch and locked her eyes on Haruka. She moved in her face and glared at her. "Haruka, you aren't mentally stable." She placed her hands on Haruka's. Magnum glanced to the side and didn't speak. Brac frowned at Rai.
"If telling her doesn't work… Why do you keep on doing it?" Brac asked angrily.
Rai stared at her husband in complete silence. They all stopped. They all were thinking about what had happened five years ago. Haruka had a daughter. Her name was Hinata. Magnum and Haruka were so proud of her. Pandora and Haruka used to be close friends, but Pandora had cut off contact with her after a major incident. Pandora had a daughter too. Her name was Pangaea. Pandora's daughter was the only child she was allowed to give birth to. If she tried to birth any other they would be a stillbirth or miscarry. In the incident, Pangaea had sacrificed herself for Haruka. Since Pandora was insane, she blamed it all on Haruka and vowed to take revenge on her. So she killed Hinata when she was fifteen. The entire event had hurt Haruka so badly she went into a full-blown depression. Before her daughter had died she had nightmares of the occurrence. She knew she was an oracle ,but thought her dreams were sometimes made by her brain in the rapid eye movement process. She was proven wrong when her daughter died.
A year later Hana came out of nowhere. Haruka had been trained by Hana's mother and heard of her death. When she saw Hana and Hanasaku she thought she could start all over. You know, she didn't have a daughter and both Hana and Hanasaku lacked mothers. Hana saw her as her mother figure and Hanasaku did too. Rai disapproved the relationship ,and claimed that it was going to make her depression worse once they left. She said that it was't even normal for something like that to happen and that Hana had a mother that promised to always protect her.
Rai took a breath and began her small speech. "Hanami would not approve of your actions. Haruka… You should know that." Rai loosened up. "And you should know that all your visions are true. They cannot be stopped."
Rai had moved away from Haruka when she said that. She examined her face and noticed that she had begun to weep. "I don't want to lose Hana and Hanasaku too." She muttered. "What if this one was just one of Pandora's mind games? Or what if this one can be stopped?!" Haruka tears went down her face in perfect lines. Rai began to sweat. She sat back down on the couch.
She turned to Brac, "You got something to say wise guy?" she retorted.
Brac muttered something to Rai and she half laughed. Brac turned to Haruka. "I dunno."
Rai cursed at him, "What do you mean I don't know?" she yelled.
Brac sighed. "I feel bad when I see girls cry. I have no idea how to deal with them."
Magnum was giving them the death stare. Brac laughed at him.
"Haruka, Hana and Hanasaku already have mothers," Brac was still staring at Magnum. "and they have fathers too. You shouldn't try to replace what they have. They'll become spoiled."
Magnum studied his crying wife and glowered back at Brac. "You can't deal with crying girls? Then I see why you can't control yourself."
Haruka rubbed her eyes before she spoke in a quavering voice. "He gets mad at us for trying to take care of our students when he babies Aoimi." she sniffled. "Can't I at least go to Armoroad?" She asked as she stopped sobbing.
Brac turned away once Haruka had brought up Aoimi ,and Rai's face went into a cringe.
"You're not over the fact that our daughter went missing."Rai didn't seem to care about her family issues. She was cold and heartless. (Unless Ryuu is brought up. she is very hypocritical.) "You have a daughter, don't let Aoimi replace her." Rai said.
Brac was sort of-kind of blushing. "Aoimi doesn't have parents."
Aoimi wasn't an orphan ,she just didn't have parents. Midori didn't mention them ,and if she did she said that they didn't have parents. Brac had a daughter with Rai but she had gone missing quite a while ago.
Rai fixed her glasses," Fine Haruka.", she stated. "You can go if we go with you."
"Sure thing."
Pandora met up with Victor at the Jotunheim's square. It was large and the songs of many different birds could be heard. It was six thirty in the morning. Pandora was wearing clothes and she stood with two of her guild mates. She called them her children. I said that Pangaea was the only child she could birth. Pandora had adopted these ones. She had adopted four ,but sent two of them to the nearing town of Etria. There was a black-haired girl that wore a red bow in her hair and a blueish black-haired boy wearing a red scarf. I told you that Pandora was mad. She is. She taught her children many things, but the thing that she wanted all of them to learn was to kill.
Victor walked over with a group of four trailing behind him. His wife, Elizabeth, was dressed in red armor. She did not have royal blood in her veins, but she was a knight that had saved Victor. She had a special name and it was the "Red knight". She had mastered every way of fighting. Well, she had multi personality disorder. Each personality did their best to protect Elizabeth's body. She had main personality that called on each personality. She had brown hair and red eyes and was wearing her famous red armor that changed into several other different kinds of armor.
Behind Elizabeth was Meru's mentor/friend Magnolia Vargas. She was the youngest daughter to a nearby dukedom. She had purple ringlets that went down to her chest and lower back. She had a very curvy figure and was very elegant. She was supposed to teach Meru how to be elegant, but her attempts never worked unless they had to do with dancing. Magnolia's dukedom was very close to Jotunheim's. Her dukedom had lost its duke a long time ago. What I am trying to say is that Magnolia's big brother went missing before she was born and her father had to become the duke until Magnolia's twin sister, Maggie, was eighteen.
Trailing behind Magnolia was Maki Larouge. He was betrothed to Meru, and was a future duke. He was very experienced with rapiers and would do nearly anything to get Meru back. He had a slick blue-black ponytail and sapphire blue eyes. He was with his diminutive companion, Miki. Miki could communicate with animals and felt like they were family to her. She was a tiny ten year-old. She had a savage look in her eye and had brown hair. She was wearing tribal clothes ,but always tried to strip because she thought that clothes were for civilized people.
"You brought two of your children Pandora?" Victor called out.
Pandora was wearing a slight frown on her face ,but it quickly turned into a big grin. "Yep!" She pointed to the boy, "His name is Ace." she boasted. She turned over to the girl, "Her name is Inki." She did not sound as cheerful when she introduced the squinty eyed girl with twin katanas on her back. "They'll be the ones that'll end the lives of everyone who took your daughter away from you!" She cheered. Inki made a weird sound and tried to smile. and Ace's face could not be seen from underneath his scarf. Pandora muttered a few illegible words and they were all consumed by a fuchsia flash of light and vanished from the Jotunheim square.
When they reappeared they were at the tropical island of Armoroad. Pandora was smiling still.
"You just were witnesses to some of my tremendous power. Be grateful I showed it." She pointed to the largest building in town,"You nobles head there and report to the old woman. Say everything ,but do not include me or my children in the description." she stated.
"What? Do you fear that you are wanted, assassin?" Elizabeth slurred. Victor slapped her and she winced. Miki sighed and looked at Maki with look of sorrow. I hope Maki doesn't end up that way. She thought to herself. She made a slight grunting noise and hid behind Maki. Magnolia pretended that the entire thing was invisible to her.
Inki turned to Ace. "If we kill tyrants… Why haven't we killed him yet?" She whispered. Ace shrugged. Pandora was still beaming.
"Victor, you're overreacting. That is the reason why I am sending you." She glared at Elizabeth as if she were jealous. "Go nobles!" She stopped glaring and cheered once again. "We're headed to the labyrinth." Pandora walked away with her kids. The five nobles walked toward the Via Senatus building.
It was nearly seven in the morning when Isis had woken up to go find the ones who killed her mother. She had slipped away from the inn and was standing by the market. She saw her mother's ghost by her side and acknowledged it with nod of her head. She saw two members of Machaera. They were Caelum and Hari. They were shopping for food. Isi sighed. She hated Caelum ,and Caelum didn't like her very much either. Caelum had seemed so suspicious to Isi. She never brought up her homeland or even talked to her own guild about it. Isis had seen the resemblance between Caelum and Olympia too. She found the both of them very strange. Hari seemed like she was in hurry.
"Find something fast!" She exclaimed while tapping her foot,"I'm gonna be late to my meeting!" she was red and appeared to be sweating.
Caelum pulled out breadsticks and put butter all over them. "Take these." She stated. "I don't think Yugai would like you bellowing at me like that."
Hari quickly snatched the food and ran to the Inver Port. Isi looked over to her mother who was peacefully floating next her.
"Where is the Eldest One? I haven't heard from him yet."
"He is resting; He does not have much power."
Isis nodded,"You know where I might find the murderers?" she asked.
"I have a feeling that they are near."
Caelum had a static expression on her face and stood so still that she looked like a statue. She was completely motionless. She wasn't even moving slightly. A couple banged into Caelum. She she got out of her stupor when they apologized. She said she was sorry a few times. They had dropped their belongings on the ground. Isis was in the corner of the market and at that moment she remembered that they were the ones who killed her mother. She sprinted over while trying to ignore the clanking sounds her high heels were making. She skidded to them and began to pick up their items. Caelum's blank expression turned into a cold one as she watched Isis suddenly pick up each and every single of the items. The woman began to gape at her because she recognized her. Caelum made a noise and marched over to her left to an alleyway.
"Thank you." The man stated. He began to ogle at her too.
Isis smirked. "You two look no different." She was filled with contempt ,but pretended she was somewhat glad. "I've finally found you." She giggled. "I'd like to speak to you in private."
The woman backed away. "You are the Isis, princess of Atlantis!" The woman screeched.
The man frowned. "Our lackeys should have killed you!"
Isis grinned. "It is time for me to give you your sentences."
The couple shamefully turned to the side. So they had even felt bad about killing Lady Persephone. Isis felt almost ecstatic as they guided her to their house. The house was a little shabby. It seemed like a shack and was completely wooden. They opened the door and led Isi to a small room and locked the door. She pulled out two precious diamonds and laid them on a table. She took a seat in a wooden chair and the couple took a seat on the other side of the table. The man had lit a fire in the fireplace next to them.
"So you are aware of the crimes you have committed?" Isis inquired. She felt so giddy, and she didn't know why. Staring at their fearful looks made her feel marvelous. She trembled at the thought of eating them. She wasn't sure if it was fear, hunger, or excitement. Maybe it was all of those feelings.
The woman's voice sounded shaky. "Yes, Lady Isis. You have my condolences…"
Isis felt a new feeling rising. Anger. "You have my condolences? Are you kidding me?! You killed her! How are you sorry?! You killed her! What did she do to you? Ruin your lives?! Correction, you ruined your lives when you killed her! And now you will suffer!" She screamed. "You ruined everything!" she got to her feet and kicked the chair she was once sitting in into a wall. She hit it so hard it broke into smithereens. She took a few quivering breaths while thinking about Ezra. She stared at them once more. "I…" She sighed. "I lost myself for second." She held on to her arm. She pointed to the gems on the table. "Make sure your children get ahold of those gems. They are priceless and will get them out of poverty."
The man turned to her."Why are you doing this for us if we hurt you?" He asked.
"It's nothing." She lied. She just didn't want their children to be like her. "I've come up with your sentences. Death by fire."
The two gasped and suddenly (well, not really.) went into tears. Isis let them cry and found that she was smiling at them. She had no idea why. What was she becoming? They cried for about forty minutes before they said they were ready to say goodbye to their children. The woman gave her son one of the gems ,and the father gave the daughter one after saying that they should give them to a rich shopkeeper. This reminded Isi of the greedy shopkeeper of the Napier's Firm. Her name was Edie. Isis took the couple outside and headed to the Inver Port. She saw Caelum waiting for Hari ,and Caelum gave her a harsh look.
Isis found a deserted island that wasn't very far from Armoroad, and burned them at the stake until they smelt ready. She didn't feel remorse. Her emotions just left her body. She pulled out her scepter and cut the bodies to small bits before she almost vomited. She wanted to cry. She just killed two people ,and was about to eat them? She went to throw the bits into the ocean, but her mother's spirit grabbed her arm.
"You don't understand Isis!" She cried out. "You must! And when you do, you the only thing you will not know is ignorance!"
Isis fell to the ground and held her head, "No…" she sobbed a little bit. She had this weird feeling. She didn't know what was going on. She hated the unknown ,and her mother was saying that if she ate these people that she would be able to tell the future almost perfectly. She felt one last "normal" feeling ,and that was the feeling of her sanity leaving her head. She choked down the meat and passed out from noxiousness.
When she woke up she was back in her bed with her dead mother's ghost, Persephone, beside her. She had this rush and felt her head pulsing.
Ezra is going to open your door in five seconds. Isis thought to herself. She ran over to her mirror and saw that her eyes had light yellow glow to them as Ezra opened the door.
"Come on. RAGNAROK is going to leave soon. We need to ask them if we can become allies when Hana is in a good mood."
"Oh, she is ,Ezra. I can tell."
Isi's day went on like this. She had no idea what was going to happen weeks later.
"Victor, you just can't come busting into a different country without planning it first!" Marin was in front of the doors of the Via Senatus with Kise silently waiting behind her. Victor made a face.
"Why not? I have nothing to fear. Matter of fact, your country should fear mine." He snapped.
Marin was in full body armor and was holding her spear. She really felt like impaling Victor. She realized that Elizabeth was staring at her. "You're still a brat." She exhaled. "What are you doing here in the first place?" She began to eye Elizabeth back. "You brought the entire family."
Elizabeth's eyes moved from Marin to Kise. Kise was standing around aimlessly and kicked a rock. Elizabeth held her heart for a few seconds before Marin realized. Marin saw the hurt look in her eyes and thought to address it ,but knew that Victor would slap Elizabeth if she spoke the truth. She tried it to test Victor's patience.
"Do you know her?" She didn't say that at anyone directly, but Elizabeth replied.
"No." It sounded like she lied. Kise peered back at Elizabeth before she grabbed her own head like she was trying to remember something. Marin turned her attention to Victor. Victor looked charming when he had nothing to do with a conversation. He didn't speak and seemed sad about something. For once, it seemed like he did not want to talk. He was in deep thought as her tried to answer the first question Marin had asked. Elizabeth stood next to Marin with a dark expression on her face. "Four years ago, Victor and I lost our daughter. We were told by a close someone that she is exploring the Yggdrasil labyrinth here." She straightened her posture.
Marin looked down at Kise for a second. "I'll tell senator Flowdia of the news, but first answer me this."
"Yes?"
"What is your daughter's name?"
"Meru Tori."
Marin nodded and told Victor to follow her. She went in the huge building and left Kise with the remaining four people. Kise stared back at Elizabeth. Miki was holding Maki and peered at Kise.
"What's your name?" She asked quietly.
Kise looked around for Miki before Maki pointed to his side. "She's here, doofus." He said.
Magnolia frowned ever so slightly. "Now, Maki we don't call people doofuses." Her sing-songy voice made everyone smile. Her elegant nature (not to mention her figure) made people confuse her age. Magnolia seemed to be in her early adult years, but she was truly only sixteen years of age.
Kise put her hands on her hips,"My name is Kise!" she pointed out. Magnolia laughed ,and Elizabeth turned away.
Miki showed herself for once. It was because she had met someone around her age. "I am Mika." She stated slowly.
"It's Miki." Maki crossed his arms. "That's what I named you."
"It doesn't matter." She said boldly. "The animals named me Mika. That's my name."
"Sure, Miki."
After ten minutes, Marin came back to the front of the building with Victor. "The senator told me to find Meru and bring her into questioning." She sighed and adjusted parts of her armor. "It shouldn't take me longer than five hours to find her." She stated as she motioned for Kise to head the labyrinth. Kise went to run to the forest ,but Elizabeth stopped her for a moment.
"For my youngest daughter." She said in a voice that was so low that Kise had hard time understanding it, and they were only three inches away from each other. Elizabeth handed Kise a katana that was in a gold and red case. "It's for you Kise." She said. Kise gazed at her for a second.
"Thank you…" She paused, "Mom." Kise muttered back. She ran off into the city.
Hari made it to port and went to leave the ship she was on. She turned back to the people behind her. These weren't normal people. These were pirates. Scott was there and he was the one escorting Hari off the boat.
"One last thing." She said.
"What might that be?" The man with caramel colored hair asked.
"Your cousin, Darling, is at Armoroad. She's in the the guild RAGNAROK. We should try to get her back."
"I'll do that when I have time to." He replied.
Yeah, sorry 'bout the cannibalism stuff. Hey, at least I finished the chapter!
