[center][h1]Celestine Lightbringer[/h1][/center] [@Letter Bee] [@Crowvette] [@Dezuel] [@KillamriX88] [@Bartimaeus] Celestine's furious stomping came to a momentarily halt as he heard the word of one of his opponents, William, declaring the intention to take him down by empowering every other fighter in the battlefield. He shot him a withering look from the confines of his cracked mask, as he resumed his power walk towards the car. [i]If you're half a man finish it yourself.[/i] Fists and teeth were clenched. He couldn't let them noticed how costly his earlier display of power had been. Pins and needles jolted his limbs, there was this burning sensation from the wound spikes, as well as nausea and dizzyness assaulted him, the rebound of the adrenaline release bringing him to near unconsciousness. He noticed his arm being grabbed. Vernon. Uttering some kind of threat to lick his wounded pride. "Believe me, you're hardly the only one whose hand was forced today. Foolish brat left me little choice." He added, as he eyed the doll who had just returned. Could anyone be more daft? But something was wrong. If the doll had returned with little regard to her own integrity, Galbrek was surely involved. Oh well, he didn't care anymore, as he cast a last glance at the diverse set of fighters. Vernon was taking care of the last nuisance, and the foxgirl seemed confused. The doll had -finally- listened, and hopped into the car. It would do for now, he thought as he picked one of his sedatives from his waistbag and injected it into himself. If it had gone for more time, serious harm could've been made. He started the engine, as he eyed the doll. "I said that ages ago. This is your and your master's folly." He added, as he eyed Vernon being launched into the car with the relative of the Ascott. He would not even try to help him anymore. THe engine of the battered car came to life, as the Fallen One left the scene without more words or actions. [hr] [center][h1][color=f6989d]Meredith Blackgate[/color][/h1][/center] [@Ebil Bunny] Meredith's life was usually like any other high schooler, except for certain peculiar moments. This was one of them. She browsed the chaotic stands of consumables with care, given that her attention span at this time of the night was not the best. She had the urges to shake her head and simply go back home. Seriously, what kind of mother figure sends her own daughter on an errand in the middle of the night to satisfy her cravings? It was true she could fly, but most High Schoolers who wanted at least a successful future were sleeping by now. Right. The strawberries were in the basket, the chocolate toppings aswell, now all that it was needed was the whipped cream. Meredith could not even begin to fathom why her own mother would insist in buying kinds of cake frosting at this hour if she had not even baked a cake, but then again, the ways of demons more than often puzzled mortals and half-demons like her. She squeezed sideways towards the counter. This shop was kinda cramped, unfortunately. It took her a few seconds to process what was going. Outside there was a cute fluffy dog, looking at one of the figures inside. At first she thought it was a half-demon like her. Then she remembered there was a boy with a fox's tail in class, what was his name... [color=f6989d]"Hi [i]Ceylon[/i]!"[/color] She said in a cheery albeit somewhat tired tone. [color=f6989d]"Are you on a late errand too? My mother wants whipped cream and strawberries but I didn't see her bake a cake at all tonight. It's curious. Oh...are you that tired? You can't sleep in the floor, silly, it's dirty!"[/color]
