Cornerian Bar #2

[Scott7]

"*sigh* sorry... Anyways, it Summer vacation and we were on our final trip there since we found out a huge war was going on. We were taking a walk through a peaceful forest when I suddenly fell into a hole, i sprained my ankle when i hit the ground. The cave was filled with Huge Green Crystals that were so bright i could barely see.

That's when i noticed this Very stone on top of a naturally formed table shaped rock, when i grabbed for the first time I felt like my body just took a breath of fresh air. And my foot somehow healed just like that!

Then i went through the long process of climbing back up, When my head poked through the top I was suddenly pulled up by my neck, by a gang of thieves. They very old, but by the time they demanded for me to give them the stone I was barely conscious do to lack of oxygen. When i didn't respond he through at a freakn tree...

My parents gave me an old sword just in case of an emergency, i fought the old geezer's and managed to beat 2 of them. But last one broke my leg with a very large hammer. When he was about to make the final blow... The edge if a blade came out of his stomach, Sarah Had thrusted her sword right through him!! He collapsed,  only to see my sister's face with serious rage and smacked me in the face!!! She was seriously worried about me. My father and some of his friends showed up 5 seconds later.

He was shocked when he saw the body's of the old men, Apparently They were legendary for their cruel method's of stealing and killing but they haven't been heard from for nearly 40 year's. They were searching for the cave which was worth million's!! But despite that information, I still gave the stone to my sister as a thank you for saving my life...."

"Your getting all this right?" Scott asked to make sure they were paying attention.

[Ris Grestar]

"Yeah, I've got it." Ris confirmed, the tip of his tail giving a short twitch.

'And that's why ya don't mess with old people, I s'pose.  Guess he has gone through quite a bit.'

[Scott7]

"But the real Nightmare started 6 years later...

I was sort of a Goth at that point. We found out on the planet that The Stone is Extremely Rare, Its Called a Life Stone. Its owner will always feel Refreshed, Remain healthy, and feel a warmth similar to the feeling of being loved. Its original Value was over 5 billion dollar's (or credits if that's what they call it in corneria) do to its restorative property's.

We got amazing offers from both scientist's, Governments, and private company's all over the universe!!! We gave a shard to the scientists so they could work on cure's for diseases and other medical problems, and refused give anything to the others.

We also got some minor thieves, but since we were very far from most major systems the weren't to many.

But when I was 14 years old, I was lying on top our roof with my sister sleep ing the dark. When for some unknown reason the planet where we found the stone Exploded....

This became the last lifestone in the universe, so it became 10 times more Valuable!!! The News the the Planets explosions spread Rather quickly around the systems, and even reached the major ones. Each New cast mentioning it the only known Source for the mineral.

A week later we found that the scientists that we gave the shard to were killed for it. and we new we were next...

So we had leave our home so we could try and save ourself's.

While we were camping out on a war uninhabited planet, me and my Sister were having a Discussion about what to do with it. So decided to talk to our parents leaving to come here to Corneria and give it to people we can trust.

Though when we went to talk to them, they were lying dead on the floor... with a bounty hunter searching the ship for it. So we calmly and quietly snuck out of it so we could wait for him to leave...

And so he did, we took the ship and tried to planet after planet to try and find some help, but we never found any that wouldn't betray us... Then ship stopped working properly.... and we were stuck on a certain planet for a while...."

[Ris Grestar]

'Yep, once he's done, I'm gonna tell him what to do...'

Raising an eyebrow, Ris asked, "Which planet would that be?"

[Scott7]

"Well.... It really didn't have an official name...

In fact it was illegal for anyone to go out that far into uncharted space..." He said with a smile that obviously was a sign of embaressment

[Ris Grestar]

Grinning, Ris gave him a friendly pat on the back.  "Heh, everyone commits minor felonies.  But anyway, this bit's serious.  If you don't want people to try to steal that thing--which believe me, after hearing that story I wouldn't mind having it at all--then you've gotta stop flourishing it.  You know, stop pulling it out when it's not necessary." 

Thinking for a few seconds, the young vulpine continued on.  "I, uh...was gonna say this whole thing a little more rudely earlier...Sorry about that.  But now I'm being honest.  The stone worked wonders in breaking up my fight out there ('Which I so could've won.'), but for your own good...just keep it hidden."

[Scott7]

"I've been trying, honestly I have. But its rare that someone remember's a news boadcast about a plenet that blew up over 4 years ago, i've gotten alot less attemps since i finally made it here a few weeks ago.

But anyway, I think thats enough of Story time for a Bit... ugh... God I need another drink" He groaned as he walked his way to the counter...

(I've been spending most of the night trying go through my damaged journal to put this in the post, so i'll fill in the last part some other time)

[Ris Grestar]

Ris watched the husky walk off, holding back a sigh.  'Poor guy...Just about in over his head and he doesn't even seem to realize it...'

(OOC: lol Sounds good.  I should totally bring in Tyr sometime =P)

[Sylum]

(Can't remember if you gave the stone a name or not lol) As the husky took a seat at the bar, cruxis swivled his chair to face him. "So it is you that has that stone that everyone was after." He said with a slightly devlish grin. "Ya know, you caused me and the dragon quite a bit of trouble a few years ago." he chuckled. "We we're actually sent on a mission to retrieve that stone by any means necessary and you and your sister were deemed "expendable." he leaned back and looked at the ceiling. "We even found you guys, but......hehehe neither one of us could bring ourselves to do anything." he turned back to the husky. "Especially me since i'm kinda in the same boat as you."

[Ris Grestar]

  Kyle Indari crouched low, cloaked in his adaptive PCD's cloaking field. He was on a rooftop just  to the right of Ris Grestar. His target; the corrupt Terran politician who had the nerve to attempt to bribe him into keeping his plans for what was left of Cerinia quiet. Sure, he planned to Terraform it to its original state, but only to exploit it for his... barbaric purposes, to say the least. Even worse, when the bribe didn't work, the idiot went so far as to hire a hitman to kill him. Needless to say, the hitman won't be found anytime soon.

    Now, all that was left to do was kill this pompous, inbred swine and his work was done... for the moment anyway. His real worry was Ris. How would he react? Not well, that much was obvious, but what would he do? Would he try to arrest Kyle, or kill him? There was no way to tell.

    It's now or never, Kyle thought as he shouldered his MP340A2, settled the scope crosshair over the politician's head...

    ... and fired. The politician bucked his head backward and fell back as the fluid in his head exploded outward behind him. Crimson blood lay all over. Kyle looked down at Ris and whoever he was talking to, and the eyes of his hunting mask briefly flashed before he took off on the rooftops. Mission acccomplished...

The sound of another shot cracking through the air, Ris' ear twitched.  Immediately after, the young vulpine leapt to his feet, racing back up the stairs to the rooftop of the bar.

Reaching the roof, his ears perked and his blue eyes focused for any movement, Ris' gaze darted over his surroundings, hoping to find the source of the gunshot.

'People these days...Sometimes they just go too far...'

The building to his left was short enough that he could see over it to the rooftops past, but the building to his right was too tall--Whoever it was was going that way, and they knew what they were doing.  Making his decision, the Arctic Fox bolted to the edge of the building, leaping off, tucking into a roll as soon as he made contact with the ground, and continuing on again.  As he ran past the buildings he kept his eyes on the rooftops, waiting for a sign of where the new killer was.

(OOC:  Star_Dragon posted this in "Outside The Bar" so I'm gonna post this in both places so everyone knows where I am lol)

[Guest Para Astaroth]

(Introducing another character I just created a few hours ago)

Upon walking up the steps of the bar, a man dressed in a formal suit soon collapsed onto his knees, gasping for air as lumps formed and shrunk back into his skin all over his body, and he pulled out a small syringe then jabbed it into his chest, pushing the fluid out of the syringe and flowing into his body.  After slowing his breathing, he pulled the syringe out and refilled it with a clear substance in a canister that he placed back into his coa pocket.  Soon, he rose back to his feetm, straightened his suit, then walked in.  Soon, he sat down at a table with no one around him, but looked around making sure no one was looking, then the man in the suit dissolved into a gray lynx dressed in a red hoodie and grey pants.  He then looked at his hands placed on the table and looked at an unopened soda can on the table, then his finger morphed into a spiney blade that popped the lid off of the can, and morphed back; he then picked up the can and began drinking it.

(OOC:  Heck yeah, it's the X-Man!)

[Guest Para Astaroth]

(OOC:  LOL Did you read his profile on my character profile's thread?)

(OOC:  LOL Did you read his profile on my character profile's thread?)

(OOC:  Well, I skimmed...but from what I -did- read he reminded me of the X-Men XD)

(OOC:  EDIT:  Okay, I read it now =P)

[Scott7]

Scott was a little confused after seeing Ris run off like that, but his attention was brought back to cruxis once Ris jumped off the roof.

"hmph, well don't start thinking you've got another shot. I've gottn more powerful since then, so you'd probably be a pile of ashes before you even took your first step." Scott replied still facing the counter.

[Sylum]

"Hahahahaha. I have no intention of taking what is yous, dude." he laughed. "Like I said, i'm in the same boat as you now." he took  another sip of his drink as he started fiddling with his communicator gauntlet.

[Ris Grestar]

(OOC:  Say hello to my little friend.  http://forums.starfox-online.net/index.php?topic=7173.msg203666#msg203666 )

A silver wolf quietly opened the door to the bar, glancing around before stepping inside.  His dark green cloak again fell over him as he walked to the bar, pulling up a stool and sitting down.  Resting his elbows on the bar, he clasped his hands together and rested his muzzle on top of them.  The wolf didn't come to eat or drink, but rather he just needed to get away for a while.

[Kursed]

(Say hello to my little friend. )

Krystal stood up walking to The wolf she looked over him "Are you feeling alright? she asked brushing a strand of blue hair out of her eyes

[Ris Grestar]

Not turning to look at her, the wolf said monotonously, his eyes dull, "I am fine, thank you.  And yourself?"

[Guest Para Astaroth]

Lazarus set the cup he was drinking from down onto the table and glanced over at Krystal ever so slowly.  Looking at her symbols on her arms, the exact symbols slowly appeared onto his hand and he looked over at the wolf near him.  He only glanced at him as he turned his attention back to the cup and stared at it. 

"Well, let's see if I can do this correctly..."  He muttered and gently touched the empty can with a finger.  As soon as he touched the rim of the can, his finger instantly turned metallic and resembled the rim of the can.  "Hmm..."  He took his finger away from the can.  "Yeah...  Looks like I CAN take the form of anything..."

[Ris Grestar]

Tyr's ear twitched and he turned his head just slightly to see the mutterer.  It turned out to be a grey lynx, seemingly staring quietly at a cup.  Thinking nothing of it, he turned his attention back to the bar in front of him, hoping the blue vixen would leave him be.

[Guest Para Astaroth]

I need to blend in,  Lazarus, the grey lynx, thought to himself as he twiddled his thumbs.  If I stay exposed for too long, I might be--

Karma getting the best of him, a Cornerian police officer glanced over at Lazarus and spoke quietly into his walky-talky on his left shoulder; keeping his eye on him.  Lazarus quickly got up from his chair, straightening his coat and began walking towards the V.I.P room.  The officer immediately began walking quickly towards Lazarus as he disappeared behind the doors.  As soon as the door closed behind Lazarus, he gently touched a security guard near the door and he instantly morphed into a replica of him.  The officer stormed in, pistol drawn and looking around wildly, but to no avail of sighting Lazarus, and failingly walked back out.

The guard-cloned Lazarus chuckled to himself as his eyes concealed by the guard's shades watched the officer walk out.  "Another attempt failed, a billion more to go."  He then dissolved back into his original form, but immediately morphed into a man walking by into the V.I.P room.  He then took his seat in a booth as he waited for a waitor to come by and take his order.

[Guest Mr. Mario]

After dealing around with some thugs, a man in a blue uniform with the letters on his back R.P.D walks over to the counter and sits down, awaiting for a waiter to take an order.

Who are all those people? the man thought to himself as he waited.

[Scott7]

Its a good Scott was still wearing his Shades, otherwise the Lynx probably would noticed Scott staring at him as well.

"I've seen shapeshifters a couple a couple of times before, But there's something differen't about this guy. But so far he doesn't seems to causing any problems, so i think i'll just leave him be."

"Hey Barkeep, I'll go for another round." But while he reached into his pocket he noticed that he was off by 2 dollars. Thats when he noticed the cop sitting next to him.

"Hey uh, Excuse me but I don't suppose you have 2 bucks on you? I swear i'll pay ya back."

"Man i hate having to do this every now and then... Fricken Josh owes me raise anyway for that Burgler last week."

[Guest Mr. Mario]

Here's 2 bucks...err...whoever you are. The cop said and handed some money over.

'better not be wise-cracking or else i'll have to do something' the cop thought.

Suddenly, the cell phone vibrated and the cop opened the phone.

Inside was a text message saying

BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR KRYSTAL OR KURSED, ONCE YOU CAPTURE ONE OF THEM

THE US GOVERNMENT WILL PAY YOU IN BILLIONS.

-Ada wong

'peh who needs billions anyway?'
