[H2] Chromatus Tower - [color=f49ac2]Wright[/color] [/h2] A thin smile laid on Wrights face whilst his eyes stared longingly down at the cities inhabitance, as he himself was positioned directly on the edge of the tower, one small step forward, and the man would fall no doubt to his death. Wright slowly got himself into a more comfortable pose, he bent his spine back ever so slightly, and gently slid his left hand onto the left side of his hip, grasping onto his white belt. His right hand then slowly raised from his side, upwards, as if his hand was clasping over the entire city, using his own perspective, he poked at the air, at individuals on the street which he could see despite being so far up in the tower. Wright sighed, with the arrow in his right hand, pointed out toward the city, his hand twitched at every tick the clock made, it was almost noon... Almost time... Then, as if he could do nothing else, the man started to giggle... [color=f49ac2]"mmhmhmhm... mmehehe... Hehehe... tehehehehehee... Aehehehehehehe!... Tick.... Tick... Tick.... Tick..."[/color] With every little movement of the clock, the pink turtleneck wearing, tall caucasian male individual giggled even more, his left hand gripped onto his chest, it was painful, he wheezed in agony, anxiousness filled him, until eventually, the clock neared it's final toll... 11:59:55.... 11:59:56.... 11:59:57.... 11:59:58.... 11:59:59.... Wrights face instantaneously twisted into an expression of a mixed arrange of madness, smug joy and overwhelming pleasure, before howling at the top of his voice, as loud as his vocal chords could manage, a laugh so twisted, a mix of screaming and unimaginable happiness was the only way to describe it, his voice rebounded off the steel pipes and gears of the tower, causing it to vibrate and echo, and soon enough, by the sheer force of such a booming maniacal screech, the maddening voice echoed through the whole tower, which [color=ed1c24]Xander[/color] could clearly hear, but after that... [color=f49ac2]"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH EAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA KEEKEKEKEKKAAAKAAHAHAHAHAHA!"[/color] 12:00:00.... Wright pushed both hands into the air, as the chromatus tower rung is ear piercing chime on cue with the time of noon. It had finally come, and from behind wright, exposed a creature only he could see, spreading out from behind his person was a figure... A stand. It appeared as an humanoid looking individual with many clocks attached to its body, constantly ticking away. The stand had a slender body, with long arms and legs, its face being human shaped, but possessing clockwork and gears along it, which continuously grind away inside its large, chrome coloured metallic body, it's gears grinding away on cue with the clocktowers, as the chimes of the tower blocked out the words coming out of his mouth, although, he could hear himself quite clearly... And the rest... was silence... [H2][center] [u][i][b]"TIME!"[/b][/i][/u] [/center][/H2] The sound of a deafening, more ominous clocktower bell echoed throughout the entire city as the whole city was engulfed instantaneously by a chrome aura like barrier. The heroes continued to move at their normal pace, until eventually they quickly began to slow down... slower... and slower, and then... everyone stopped. To the normal world, everyone felt like the world around them had simply stopped moving, they could still look around with their eyes, but as for anything else, it was futile to try. Nobody could speak, nobody could move, nor blink... frozen solid entirely... From Wrights perspective however... The entire city was entirely crafted into clocks and gears, the buildings were made out of clockwork mechanical tools and cogs, as was every single not living object, the people however were covered with gears over their bodies, at their joints and limbs, slowing them down as they ground to a halt, drenching the whole city from his perspective in a chrome clockwork world, it's gears rattled and churned endlessly, until they began to slow down, on cue with the halting citizens and vehicles of the city, as it all stopped... filling the clockwork world in a chilling silence... [color=f49ac2]"In the distance.. across the streets, Tolling of the bell, it's chimes shalt cause the faithful to collapse upon their knees... To hear the softly spoken magic spell... Time."[/color] Wright grinned and slowly licked the arrows base to the tip, without cutting himself however, and as his saliva dripped off the top he snickered, flicking the arrow along his fingertips, and unlike the rest of the world, it was not subjected to the chrome gears of his STAND. Wright then gripped the shaft of the arrow and held it over the edge lazily, speaking ominously to himself... [color=f49ac2]"Chrome Wright will now judge if some of the faithful to my desires remain in this city... to see them gazing around so helplessly, they need a shepherd to guide them... I am that shepherd... And I will shepherd... the true reality... Heh.[/color] Chrome licked his lips disturbingly, before gnawing down on his wooly turtleneck, biting onto it carnivorously as he slowly let the arrow in his grip drop, causing it to descend from the top of the tower, from this moment, the lives of eight people would be sealed forever. The arrow took on a mind of its own in a way once it was dropped, firing down toward the ground floor of the tower, [color=ed1c24]Xander[/color] would notice the golden arrow fire downward, as it shot through a child's, soft, weak, fleshy face directly in front of him, obliterating anything that could be recognised, but however was unable to comprehend the event before he too was stabbed, but instead through the chest with the Arrow. On connection A wave of energy filled his person, filling him with a strange yet unimaginably painful aura, but unable to cope with the intense pain, his mind went blank, as did his world, sinking him into an immediate comatose slumber. Soon enough the arrow zipped through the entire city at mach speed, stabbing, slicing, cutting and chopping down civilians left and right, but was too fast to even be recognisable, it merely looking like the people were just dying out of thin air. Our other heroes would find themselves also in the path of the carnage, as it quickly pierced through the chests of every single individual, granting them the same feeling of power and agonising pain as Xander, following the same comatose as he did. The heroes did not even have time to understand what became of them, why it happened, why they felt so much pain, why people were just suddenly dying... They would have to wait... Until they reawoke... As the carnage graced the entire city, Chrome laughed sadistically on top of the tower, before he turned away and fell backwards, Chrome suddenly falling from the towers edge, howling in glee, with each breath, another victim of the Arrow was claimed, and as it appeared as if he would become paste on the cities floor, the man suddenly vanished into thin air, without a trace... And the Stands power... deactivated... The arrow... nowhere in sight. [h2] Izayoi Grand Hospital - [color=a187be]Gibson Ves Hawkin [/color] [/h2] Gibson felt his chest cave in, the force of his chest being slammed by a car "graced" him as he awoke from his slumber, instinctually gasping for air, he sat up from a pure white hospital bed and coughed, clutching his chest in agony only to find the pain instantly subsiding. A cold sweat drenched his entire being, and his heard pumped faster and faster from both sheer confusion and utter fear. Gibson's eyes started to water, it was too much for him to handle, and the teenager began to cry silently, clutching his mouth with his left hand, which shook violently. What happened? What hit him? Why did he feel so much pain? Why was he in a hospital and... Why was he with... everyone else? Gibson stared around his hospital bed to see many other beds in the large room, each individuals who must have been struck with the arrow. [hider=OOC note](the only people in this room are just our heroes, nobody else, you won't know you have a stand until later on, I'l mention when it shows, don't worry, but it won't be for a while yet. [/hider] [color=a187be]"H- hello?"[/color] Gibson whimpered frightfully toward the person sleeping in the bed to his right, which happened to be Yosuke. [color=a187be]"Are... You still alive...?"[/color] [hider=OOC note]Lets have some nice posts people! Remember, that pain is fucking brutal XD[/HIDER]
