PianZoe: CiaHottie got the message wrong last chapter. What I had said, was
the chapter after the next chapter, there will be no talking!
CiaHottie: Then, if you would have had me say it last chapter, then wouldn't that mean that it was the next chapter?
PianZoe: No, because last chapter, I said 'Tell them that the chapter after the next chapter after the next chapter we won't be talking at the beginning,' but Cinnaminna had already taken over half of me so I only said half of it. I only said 'Tell that chapter the chapter the chapter won't talking the beginning.'
CiaHottie: Whatever.
Cinnaminna and Randomonia: As for us freedom!!! So it is!
PianZoe and CiaHottie: AHH!! NOOO!!!
Cinnaminna and Randomonia: *dance to Should I Stay or Should I Go*
PianZoe and CiaHottie: *sweatdrop*
Cinnaminna: *points to PZ and CH, still dancing* Those do not have the possession power on the game of the arm of wildness!
Randomonia: *does same* As for those, Fate and Yellow-pink wall master!
PianZoe: Oh, and sorry the chapter's kinda late. I got a horrible writer's block on it...
*~*^*~*^*~*^*~*^*~*
Erica paused in her drawing for a moment, having gotten through with her picture of Vedette, a picture of Denae, and a picture of Kevin. She glanced up towards Razi, and sighed. He was the only one left to draw, she might as well draw him. Although it would be kind of hard, seeing as he kept folding the piece of paper into odd shapes, that she could never remember. Scrunching her face up, she set to work on the drawing, her tongue sticking out the right side of her mouth. But, as she began to draw him, everything went black. Three high pitched screams rang out - Vedette, Denae, and Razi. The sounds of several objects falling to the ground sounded - Razi's piece of paper, Kevin's book, and Erica's writing materials. Erica immediately looked out the window, her breath quickening. She then felt a head beside her own, and her breath quickened more. 'Oh stop that, it's probably Denae, or Razi, or Vedette, or Kevin.' she thought to herself, frowning.
"It's just a tunnel." Kevin's voice sounded from beside her, confirming that it was indeed Kevin's head beside her's. She pulled herself away from the window, and then got down on the floor to search for her drawing materials. A pen... her note book... and a piece of paper. She picked up the piece of paper, and then frowned in confusion.
"This is not my paper." she said, tossing the paper in the direction that Razi had been. She heard the paper hit something, and also heard Razi's muffled shriek, causing her to giggle a bit. Then, the lights came on. Evidently, someone had forgotten to turn them on before they went into the tunnel. Erica glanced around, to see Denae covering her eyes, Razi sitting in a ball, shaking, Kevin looking out the window, and Vedette flitting around nervously. "Oh good... the lights are on." Erica stated the obvious, and as she did, they came out of the tunnel, causing her to roll her eyes. "Perfect timing." she said sarcastically, starting on her drawing once more.

Several hours later, Georgia knocked on the door of the kids' compartment. Razi opened the door, and Georgia smiled at him. "Hello, I was just coming to make sure you five were getting ready - because, as you probably heard, the train's coming up to Urartu Station." she said, glancing around Razi, to see the other four already gathering their stuff.
"Yeah, we figured that we should probably get ready. Well... at least, Erica and Kevin figured we better." Razi laughed, then grabbed the door, about ready to close it. "We'll be done in a sec, 'k, ma'am?" he asked, as he began to slowly close the door, and Georgia nodded her head, backing away from it. As soon as the door was closed, he began to 'help' the others get ready. "You guys gather our stuff, I'll... find stuff to gather."
"But we already know where all the stuff is, you don't have to find it." Kevin growled, narrowing his eyes at the lazy teen Caradine (Cinnaminna: THATETH RHYMEETH!! PianZoe: *ties Cinnaminna up, and gags her* Sorry about that. There shall be no more inconveniences from this kitty- minion/inconvenience!). Erica nodded her head, pitching Razi's bag at his head, hitting him straight on and causing him to fall backwards into the door.
"Uh... thanks... I think." Razi's muffled voice came from underneath his bag. Erica giggled and grinned, as she slipped her boots back on. Razi sat up away from the door, catching his bag in his lap, and rubbed his head with his right hand. "Ow..."
Since they were all ready, they walked out of the compartment, to wait for the adults. To their surprise, they found that the adults, and many other passengers, were already out in the hall. The two groups joined up, to wait until the train stopped. They only had to wait for a little while, because soon after they joined up the train slowed to a halt.
When they exited the train, they couldn't help but stare around at the station - well, all except Anthony, who had been here several times before. It was larger than any they had seen before! Two sets of stairs, instead of the usual one. After getting used to the larger size, they walked up the stairs, and out the two doors, to find themselves standing on red dirt, on a ledge that if it weren't for the small trail of land leading to it, it would be an island. They began walking across the trail of land connecting the Urartu Station's little 'island' to the white salt desert.
As soon as the group were across the trail, a short figure clad in a cloak with a hood shadowing their face exited the train station - the only thing seen beneath the hood were a pair of intense amber eyes, that were pinned on the group of eight.

It had been four hours, and although they only had one more hour to go to get to Quartly, the kids insisted upon resting for the night (for it was now 10:00 PM). The adults eventually gave in, resting near one of the stalagmites.
~`Mystery cloaked person POV`~
I watched as the group of humans - well, and one half human - settled themselves down next to one of the white stalagmites, and I had to ask myself why they rested when they were only one hour away from their destination? Eh, I don't understand the minds of humans... although, according to Mom, I should because I am in fact, half human. Never mind. I slunk slowly in the direction of the eight human's campsite, and stopped next to the stalagmite, my eyes narrowing at the five children who were sleeping peacefully - well, actually, one of them was older than me, so I couldn't exactly call him a child, but he's only two years older than me. I walked forward a bit, until I was just barely out of reach of the glow of the lantern they had lit.
I watched them, as the woman with silver hair leaned her head against the man with black hair's shoulder. Ew. Enough with the lovie-dovie-ness already! I thought I came here to kill them while they were asleep, not watch them all gross together... concentrate! Good, the silver haired woman is falling asleep... and the blonde woman is already asleep, good. The men are yawning... good, good, good... nearly asleep! Come on, do I have to make them fall asleep? Oh, goody! I think the men are asleep!
I walked towards the adults, holding my hands together, making a small ball of black energy form between them. As I walked towards the black haired and silver haired couple, the black haired man's eyes snapped open, and the next thing I knew, I was dangling off the ground, being held up around my neck. "H-He-Hey!!" I tried to shout, but it came out sounding like a barely managed whisper. "Let-let go-o!" I began clawing at the man's hand, kicking at his chest. He just scowled at me in reply.
"Who are you and what do you think you are doing?" the man asked me, but I didn't reply, as I continually kicked at his chest. His grip around my neck tightened, and it was then that I finally noticed that it was not a real arm, it was bionic! That is so unfair! I began choking, and so he loosed his grip a bit, so that I could answer his question. I think.
"... No!!" I shouted, finding that I couldn't an answer to his question, and I began shaking my head violently, closing my eyes. If I was as strong as Mom, he would be dead now! "Let go of me!" I shouted once more, opening my eyes, and stopped shaking my head, glaring dark daggers at him. "I am not answering you!!" I tried kicking his arm that was holding me, but I couldn't reach it with my foot. At that moment, my hood decided to fall off my head, revealing my pale face, short deep, deep purple hair, and amber eyes. His blue eyes widened a bit in shock, then they narrowed once again.
"Hm. A 13 year old version of Giovanna? Must be her daughter. Am I right?" the man asked, and I just growled at him, trying my hardest to break free of his ridiculously tight grip.
"Let go!!"
"Ran. Just blast him with Dark Matter. I can not believe I have raised such an idiot for a daughter..." I froze upon hearing my Mother's disappointed voice, my eyes extremely wide.
~`Third person POV`~
A dark form stepped out of the shadows, wearing a hooded cloak. They raised their arm, and flung off the hood, to reveal a smirking face. Georgia, who had awoken from the noise Ran had made, furrowed her eyebrows, "G-Giovanna?... It can't be! You're...you're dead!!" Giovanna chuckled, shaking out her hair, "No, Miss..." She looked to Anthony, then Erica, and snorted with laughter, " Bernadette... I'm not dead, as you can see so very well.." She stepped forward so that she was completely visible.
Anthony released his grip on Ran, and scowled at Giovanna. Ran ran over to her mother, standing slightly behind her. "Ran, you fool girl, let me show you how to fight with silly little humans..." Giovanna let forth a billowing laugh, and formed a gigantic ball of Dark Matter, throwing it easily at Georgia. She was not ready at all, and the ball hit her strait on, causing an ear-splitting scream to echo from her lips.
Giovanna snickered, turning to Anthony and sending a similar ball at him. He held out his bionic arm, and the energy bounced off, hitting a large rock, causing it to explode and send jagged pieces of stone everywhere, some piercing flesh. Anthony roared with rage, and shot his fist at Giovanna, hitting her smack dab in the face, causing her to stumble, and fall over. Ran stared in shock at the blood pouring from her mother's mouth, and glared at Anthony.
She furrowed her eyebrows, and began to summon up a large ammount of black energy, but she felt a pain in her shoulder. She turned and saw her mother, standing gripping her shoulder, "Sit down, and get out of the way, Ran!" Giovanna growled, pushing her daughter to the side, and sending a gigantic ball of red, violet, and green light at Georgia. She screamed just as it engulfed her, holding her like a kite in the air, wavering like a bad tv image. She closed her eyes, and her voice could be heard like she was speaking from a long distance away.
"NO!! ERICA!! Get away from it, don't- ERICA!!!!"
Anthony watched as his wife twisted and screamed. He ran up to her, sticking his bionic arm through the energy, grabbing Georgia's. He yanked, and she came jolting out, waking up, sweat trickling down her pale cheeks. She wiped her face, glancing at ERica to make sure that she was okay, and then ran over to her sleeping bag, pulling her ARMs out from under it. She ran up to Giovanna, appearing to shoot, but instead kicked her strait in the jaw, knocking her over again. Georgia held her pistols out, pointing them at her rival's neck. Giovanna had a look of pain and suprise on her face, but only for a moment, for as Georgia was about to pull the trigger, she reached out and slugged the pistol of of her hand.
Giovanna jumped up, pushing Georgia backwards. She got up, grabbed her ARM, and shot off a few bullets at Giovanna, who caught two of then in the gut, and one in the shoulder. She growled, letting out a frustrated scream.
Giovanna quickly stood up, and sent several balls of violet energy at the teenagers who had awoken a few minutes before, and had been watching in astonishment. Kevin held out his ARM, and the ball of energy that had been sent at him hit it, and it went flying out of his hand. Two, which had been sent at Danae, went flying past him, and one hit Danae's shoulder, one the wall behind her. She screamed as a large hole appeared in her flesh, and blood began gushing out of it.
Erica was too busy watching Danae get hit, so she didn't have time to block the 3 balls of energy that had been flying at her. One hit her in the hand, forming a small hole, and one in the thigh, which just grazed her, making a slightly larger hole. The other hit Razi, who was sitting beside her. Erica looked down at her wounds, "DAMNIT!" she screamed, clutching her bleeding wounds with both hands. For a moment Georgia scowled at her daughter, but then turned back to Giovanna, who had just attacked her, sending several bullets her way.
For a fleeting moment Giovanna look frightened, but then her face contorted into a smirk. She held up both hands, palms forward, and in one a small ball of violet light formed, in the other, a black one. She grinned even wider, and slammed her palms together. For a moment nothing happened, but then a huge rumbling began beneath their feet. Erica screamed in fear, and ran over to her father, who embraced her. Suddenly a huge silver ball of energy flew out of the ground beneath them, sending chunks of earth and debris everywhere, and engulfing the team of Drifters/Teens.
****-**=** Erica's POV
I watched as a huge ball of silver.. stuff came out of the ground. It was gigantic in size, so much that it almost seemed like a huge monster, coming to swallow us up. Suddenly, it engulfed us all within it, and the last thing I saw was my mom and dad clutching eachother, and myself, then everything went black.
CiaHottie: Then, if you would have had me say it last chapter, then wouldn't that mean that it was the next chapter?
PianZoe: No, because last chapter, I said 'Tell them that the chapter after the next chapter after the next chapter we won't be talking at the beginning,' but Cinnaminna had already taken over half of me so I only said half of it.
