Re: MÄR-Heaven: Chess's Third Reich
The King turned around and saw the Queen's body turning to silver, "What's happening?" he shook her body, then shouted, "ANSWER ME DAMMIT!" he shouted loud enough to be heard by everyone in and out of the castle, the entire area shook violently.
_____
Saito nodded, "So it's-Wait you mean the Garnet with blue hair and ears?" he put his hands on his head to mime ears, "And he uses a Red Claw for an ÄRM?"
_____
Ai and Little Saito walked away as Garnet flew around the castle, "Where are we going Ai?" Ai smiled, "Let's go around Chess's castle."
_____
Garnet looked through all the closed doors, all of them were empty, "...So many extra rooms.... there's no one inside any of them."

Re: MÄR-Heaven: Chess's Third Reich
Agatha's eyes opened a little, seeing Hei and Kami-sama beside her. Hei was laying down, Kami-sama not, but holding up food for her. "Eat something, the pawns have already fed Hei. Tamao's body...has turned silver." Agatha nodded.
"I can't keep them awake or warm anymore... It is unfair to them."
"Do not worry about such things. Soon, soon you will give them a place that is much warmer." She nodded, taking a piece of food and starting to eat it slowly. "We knew this day would come eventually."

"And bloody wings, that hurt, a lot. If I hadn't used your Healing Angel earlier I think I might still of had the scabs from the punctures on my arm and chest. And if I wasn't as quick on my feet as I am I wouldn't even be standing here." Milly scratches behind his ear for a moment. "So, you know Garnet? Are you a friend of his or something?"

Re: MÄR-Heaven: Chess's Third Reich
Saito's face showed anger, "Yes, finally I can kill him!" He looked down, "I'll get him back for what he did to Tamao!"
_____
"Bingo!" Garnet saw the young girl's body laying alseep in the bed, "Hehe, It's a girl, and she's asleep! This is perfect!" he shouted grinning as he flew in the room.
_____
Ai and Saito were in Chess's castle, and the cloaked knight from the first round flew past them, "What do you mean he's turned to silver?! Did the Holy ÄRM work?"

Re: MÄR-Heaven: Chess's Third Reich
Chi was currently sitting in her room, having just woken up from a good sleep. "Tell me." The male nodded, looking towards her.
"A day or two, maybe three."
"Then all out war..."
----
Hei's eyes opened up a little, muttering as he sighed. "Holy ARM do not work with reflections..."

Re: MÄR-Heaven: Chess's Third Reich
Milly sighs and rubs the back of his neck. "Well, this is going to be interesting." I certainly hope Garnet's plan doesn't hinge on Saito's assistance, and I don't think we're going to be sparring today so...He hops up and down a few times before changing into a brown cat and traipsing over to Rachel.
Rachel takes a deep breath as the cat walks over to her. She scratches him behind the ear as he sprawls on the dirt beside her. "When does he plan on making his move?" She sighs as Milly responds by lifting himself up slightly and then flopping again. So he doesn't know either. I wonder if Lilith's having anymore success. Of course she has to not kill him after she finds him first.
Lilly walks in after Garnet, and slams the door shut. "GarNET, I've been looking for you." She stalks over to him and activates Sickle Death. She swings it wide over his head and impales the blade into the bed on the far side of the girl's neck. "She's a little small." She pulls the scythe towards her, drawing a thin line of blood from her neck. "Don't you think? Wouldn't you prefer someone a little bigger?"

Re: MÄR-Heaven: Chess's Third Reich
Saito turned around, "I'm going back to the cas-" he saw Rachel scratching Milintica's ears, 'He seems like a good person, but he knows several Chess Pieces and is a thief...'
_____
Garnet almost jumped, "Oh, it's you..." his eyes dulled, "I don't like girls when they are too rough, so little girls are good too, as long as they've matured enough." He grinned and closed his eyes, "So how'd you get in here?"
_____
The cloaked man pulled out an ÄRM with eight crosses. "Eight Cross! Eighth Inferno! Reduces the flames to Zero!" An angel sped passed and pillar enveloped then silver turned Knight, Ai looked over to Knight, "Oh shi-" many Chess Pieces were being carried, "What happened?!" Oniko's voice shouted out, "Saito we have to leave!" She closed her "Neku!" The guardian made blue wall and the wall blew up as he carried them away.

Re: MÄR-Heaven: Chess's Third Reich
The silver knight was not harmed, in fact merely remaining in the same state as before.
----
Hei's eyes opened again, having almost fallen asleep. He looked towards Agatha, who was being held up in Kami-sama's arms. In the entrance of the room was Chi. "We have to leave towards another area, please stay safe, Hei." Kami-sama left the room, Chi following with a serious face. Hei's eyes gently closed again.
"And so war may spark..."

Re: MÄR-Heaven: Chess's Third Reich
"Too rough? Oh come now, have you ever even tried one?" She activates Negzero, paralyzing Garnet, temporarily. The scythe disappears as she walks over to him. She toys with his ear, tugging on it some as she runs her other hand over his chest. "Come on, it'll be fun." She looks out the window. "Say, how long do you think we'd have to play before we both go splat on the ground? Hehehehe. Wanna find out? Or should we just, play here?" She pushes him onto the ground and tears open his shirt with her fangs. "You know, if I enjoy this enough, I just might save you for last when the world gets destroyed."
Milly takes a couple of steps away from Rachel and reverts. She noticeably stiffens up at his change, but he just walks over to Saito. "What's with that serious face, cap? You're not still worrying about me being a thief, are you? I'm not going to try stealing from anyone on the team, and I have my reasons for wanting to destroy Chess. If you're so worried about my allegiance, I'll tell you." He stops beside Saito and speaks very softly, but still manages a snarl, "They've taken my family from me, twice. They're going to suffer as I rend the hearts from their bodies." With that he clenches his fist, digging his claws into the palm of his hand. His other hand makes it's way into the bag and begins carving another piece of wood.
What are they talking about? Millintica seems really tense. He's even more frightening than usual. She takes in a gasp of air as a few droplets of blood make their way to the ground from Milly's hand. Are they about to fight? But what about? They were talking about Garnet before, but nobody has much love for him, except Lilith maybe. Ah, could it be my fault? Milly was just over here after all.

Re: MÄR-Heaven: Chess's Third Reich
"Not even my Holy ÄRM work... I'm sorry." he went to the Knight's side and covered his face with his arm, "Don't die on me!"
_____
Ai and Little Saito landed on the Arena, "...That was no fun at all" both of them said, nearly in harmony.
_____
Garnet grinned, "Really now? Last? I think I'd love to see the End of the world, so..." he closed his eyes and kept grinning, "Sure, just don't use your fangs."
_____
Saito glared back at Milintica, "...Then how do you know her and Garnet?" he said dropping his glance twice, once at Milintica's hand then towards Rachel

Re: MÄR-Heaven: Chess's Third Reich
The knight turned warm for a moment, his eyes opening the tiniest bit. "Agatha-sa..." His voice spoke out weakly before his eyes closed and his body reverted back to silver.
Re: MÄR-Heaven: Chess's Third Reich
He unclenches his hand and begins carving with it; his tone returns to normal as well. "Hm? Her? Oh, you mean Rachel. She and Lilith were the ones who attacked the town I was in when Chess went on the offensive. Rachel apparently has a softspot for cats, or at least brown ones, since she decided to not try and kill me. Unfortunately, my transformation isn't perfect and while I was hitching a ride with them to Luberia I got reverted back. I'm not sure why Lilith didn't kill me, but when we got to Luberia one of the Chess guys who had attacked us was still alive and Lilith said that if I killed him, she'd see about getting some higher up to let me join Chess. Now I didn't really care for joining Chess, but it seemed like a lot faster and easier way to get here than any other. It wasn't until after we had gotten here that I broke it to Lilith that I didn't want to join, and she took it surprisingly well, especially since I lifted an ARM off her hehe." He glances down at his carving, considering something. "I'm not really sure why Rachel's a part of Chess, her personality seems a lot like any old average girl that I've ever met. Except for the problem she has with guys and the whole killing thing. And as for how I know Garnet, I already told you about that."
Lilly kisses Garnet on the lips and releases him from the effects of Negzero. She moves her lips to his ear once more, "But I won't be able to fully enjoy it if I don't, you should try it. It adds so much to the experience when you can taste the other's adrenaline in their blood."

Re: MÄR-Heaven: Chess's Third Reich
Saito sighed, "I'm going to go check on the other girl, see if she's awake yet, is that okay with you?" Saito said lightening up a bit.
_____
Garnet smiled, "Hehe, you're a weir-" "EEEEKK!" The girl woke up, and felt her neck, "Ah! What are you doing, and what did you do? Millintica!" She closed her eyes and shouted louder, "MILLINTICA THER-" Granet's Garnet claw held her entire face, "Shush now honey, you'll get your turn."
_____
The knight turned around, "What was that? Agathasa?" he grabbed the silver knight and shook him.

Re: MÄR-Heaven: Chess's Third Reich
The knight no longer reacted, his body back to the other status completely.
----
Kami-sama sat down with Agatha in his lap near the stage. Chi seemed to sigh. "Even now...the effect will..." He nodded.

Millintica's ears straighten up at the girl calling his name. "Oh, Shaito we gotta go!" Milly just about flies past Saito and through the halls until he comes to the girl's door. "Meow Meow Wave!" The blast blows the door off its hinges and sends it across the room, blocking the window. "Garnet, what are you doing here?" He notices Lilith. "Oh, hey Lilith." "Hello Millintica, why don't you and that other brat leave us adults to alone." "Right away, m'lady death." As Lilith pounces on Garnet again this time digging into his shoulder with her fangs, he starts trying to pry the garnet claw off the girl's face. "Oh yeah, you can have this Garnet." He tosses the carving at Garnet before going back to the claw. Its one of Milly's kitty carvings, but its sticking its tongue out.

Re: MÄR-Heaven: Chess's Third Reich
Saito's eyes dimmed, "Shaito? ...what a damn shame..." he looked to Rachel and then followed Milintica, eventually getting to the girl's room. "You!" Garnet looked at Saito, "I think it's for you Lilly, psycho ex-boyfriend maybe?" Saito activated Renkin, and the sword became a Medieval Javelin, "Get up so I can kill you." The girl started sweating, "Milintica..."
_____
Little Saito and Ai were walking back to the castle, "Um Ai...can I try something?" Ai nodded as Saito grinned, "You have to hold on to me and not let go okay?"

Re: MÄR-Heaven: Chess's Third Reich
Lilith looks Saito over a moment. "Can't be, he's still breathing." She steps away from Garnet and licks her bloodied lips. "Although, he does look like a rather tasty morsel." She follows Saito's gaze with her eyes. "But alas it seems he only has eyes for you."
Milly cringes. "I know, I know. This could hurt a bit." He manages to get his hand beneath the claw and then uses Meow Meow Wave again, sending the claw flying. "There we are, right as rain. And now, we run." He picks the girl up in his arms and leaps over Saito, curling into a ball to avoid hitting the door frame. He lands hard and his back slams against the stone wall. "I'm sure you can handle the rest Saito."
Lilith stands behind Garnet and throws her arms around his neck whispering in his ear. "I'll let you boys have some fun. Come find me later so we can finish playing our game, Garnet." She nibbles his ear a little before kissing him and then she slices what's left of the door in half and leaps out the window twirling her scythe above her head as she activates alexander's wings.
Milly doesn't stop running until he's made it safely back to the garden. He leans heavily on the castle wall nearly hyperventilating. "That...could....have...been bad." Rachel walks over to him and touches a hand to the girl's forehead. "Is she alright?" He nods. "Yeah, Garnet was, well being himself. It's unfortunate but you can't always work with people you like."
Rachel had nearly forgotten that they were going to double cross Chess with Garnet and kicks the wall next to Milly. "You have nooo idea."
I wonder, what happened to Rachel to cause her to hate guys so much? Milly found himself admiring Rachel's leg for a moment before he catches himself and looks back at the girl. "Oh, sorry. This is Rachel, she's a...a friend?" He glances at Rachel for confirmation and then sets the girl down and slumps to the dirt himself.
Rachel glances down to Millintica. "Uh, Milly, could you?" "Huh? Oh sure." After Milly changes into a brown cat Rachel removes her mask and smiles at the girl. "Hi, I saw your first fight. That was pretty slick for a girl so young. I wish I had been as brave as you when I was your age." The gardener slams his shovel into the ground noisily before asking pointedly. "You sure it's okay for a bishop to be so friendly with one of Chess's enemies?"
Milly cringes. "I know, I know. This could hurt a bit." He manages to get his hand beneath the claw and then uses Meow Meow Wave again, sending the claw flying. "There we are, right as rain.

Re: MÄR-Heaven: Chess's Third Reich
Saito prepared his javelin and pointed it at Garnet, "Prepare yourself." Garnet stood up and grinned before clapping, "How noble of you, but you should always attack first ask questions later." He still had Garnet Claw Equipped, and he slashed at Saito, who backed up and out of the room.
_____
The girl smiled, "Thanks, although I wish I did as good last round, but I'll make p my loss in the future rounds!" She said happily. She then looked to Milintica, "Why were those two in my room?"
_____
Ai held on to Little Saito as he looked up, "Hermes!" He jumped up high, getting to the top of the castle, then jumped across the entire castle, "Whoo! Ha ha! Isn't this awesome." Ai smiled faintly as she began to sweat and held him tighter, "...Yeah...just don't let me go"

Re: MÄR-Heaven: Chess's Third Reich
Milly turned his head to Rachel, passing the question on to her. "Well, that's because uh." She looks down at Milly pleading. Help...please? He shrugs and lets out a long yawn. Rachel slumps her shoulders and crouches so that she's on eye level with the girl. "The lady, Lilith, wanted something from the blue guy, Garnet, but he's a very bad man. Just don't let anywhere near you, or he'll do something that shouldn't happen to a little girl like yourself. Alright?" She almost breaks into tears but forces herself to smile reassuringly at the girl. Bastard, if he does anything to her. He'll wish Lilith had gotten to him first. "But, do you really want to keep fighting like this? Before this is over you might get killed." She looks down to the ground speaking quietly. "Or you yourself might have to kill somebody." She embraces the girl in a hug as tears run down her face. "Little girls should be playing with dolls, not fighting and killing."
Milly looks down to the ground and lets out a sorrowful whimper. So that's what happened to her, and I thought my life had problems. Milly runs over to the Gardener and transforms. "You mind if I help?" "You sure you can handle this?" Milly responds soberly. "I know how to handle a shovel, better than most."

Re: MÄR-Heaven: Chess's Third Reich
Garnet caught Saito's Javelin, then tossed him back, activating Bye Bye Angel. He then grabbed Saito's face and slammed him against a wall, his wings ready to strike. "So, do you want me to kill you? Or are you just stupid?"
_____
The girl hugged Rachel back, "...but I want to fight. I want to make my family proud, cause I'm the strongest fighter left in my village!" She said with a bit of pride, "Chess destroyed everything I had...I didn't want to fight, but with Milintica around I feel confident I won't die."
