~Nintendo High - Outside Al Mualim's Office~ Sitting in a chair and nervously fidgeting with a folder in her lap sat Isabelle as she anxiously awaited her employment interview with Al Mualim. As she continues tapping on the folder, she says "I hope Murabito made it onto the bus on time..." ~Nintendo High - Boiler Room~ "Ugh...my achin' head..." With a groan, Dingodile opens his eyes, only to close them once more as he moans in discomfort. With dificulty, he gets to his feet and with eyes still shut, he begins using the wall to guide him towards the door, only to step on the shattered remains of the sake bottle from last night. Upon doing so, he begins hopping around in pain while screaming numerous obscenities at the top of his lungs. ~On Dick's Bus~ Looking out the window with a thoughtful glance, Murabito begins pondering about what his new school is going to be like as the bus continues towards it's destination. ~Somewhere In Tokyo~ The Ozzie Trio, disguised as humans as to avoid drawing unnecessary attention, begin walking through the city until reaching the contact point for delivering the file Dalton sent along with them. They look at each other before wordlessly entering a nearby park and sitting down at one of the benches, glancing occasionally at other parkgoers with hidden disgust. ~In A Dark Alley~ Looming within the darkness of one of Tokyo's many alleyways was a shadow of a short round creature with two large, yet hollow bat-like wings and what appeared to be a jester's cap on it's head. As the creature floats out of the shadows, it looks at a dark crystal in it's right hand which begins crackling with dark energy. Grinning evilly, the being known as Marx jets out of the alleyway at a high speed towards his destination: Nintendo High.
I guess i'll jump aboard the character list bandwagon: Ratchet (Ratchet & Clank) Clank (Ratchet & Clank) Murabito (Animal Crossing) Isabelle (Animal Crossing) Dingodile (Crash Bandicoot) Canas (Fire Emblem) Regulus Black (Harry Potter) Yakra (Chrono Trigger) Yakra XIII (Chrono Trigger) Dalton (Chrono Trigger) Ozzie (Chrono Trigger) Flea (Chrono Trigger) Slash (Chrono Trigger) Lavos (Chrono Trigger) Dark Matter (Kirby) Marx (Kirby) Marx Soul (Kirby) I may add more in the future, but for now I intend to keep my list short.
~Veldin Repair Shop~ From outside the shop, a loud explosion is heard coming from inside, causing nearby pedestrians to look on in confusion. "Well, that didn't go as well as I'd hoped." mutters Ratchet, covered head to toe in black soot, with Clank in same state as well. Lying on the workbench before them sits a charred, blackened lump of metal that is still smoking from the explosion. Dusting himself off, Ratchet reaches for his wrench, until Clank grabs his wrist, stopping him. "Perhaps we should call it a night, Ratchet. It's already late and we do not want another noise complaint filed against us." said Clank, hoping his suggestion would convince Ratchet to stop 'inventing' before he burns down the shop...again. Looking outside at the night sky, Ratchet says "I guess it is getting late...alright, we'll stop for now..." "Thank goodness." "...But we're picking up where we left off first thing tomorrow!" Palming his forehead in annoyance, Clank mutters under his breath before entering sleep mode as Ratchet heads upstairs to retire for the night. ~Ozzie Trio's Quarters - Skyship Blackbird~ After returning back to their quarters on the Blackbird, Ozzie's look of slight fear turns to one of anger as his face begins reddening from rage. "Argh! I can't stand that pompous sack of flesh! Who does he think he is? Not even the Fiendlord treated us this badly!" rants Ozzie as he paces around the room. Slash, doing maintenance on his signature Slasher sword, simply looks at Ozzie and says "I'm not the guy's biggest fan either, but it is what Lord Astral wishes of us and you know that we simply just can't say 'no'. All we can do for now is to follow our Lord's orders." Before Ozzie can respond to Slash's comment, a knocking is heard at the door. Opening it, he finds one of Dalton's subordinates waiting outside, holding a black binder with numerous papers inside. Handing it to Ozzie, the subordinate says "Lord Dalton wishes for you to deliver this file to one of our contacts tomorrow." before leaving the area as Ozzie snorts and closes the door. "Great. Just great. First we had to fetch something for him and now we're his glorified delivery service. Where did we go wrong in life to deserve this?" mutters Ozzie as he places the binder on his desk. Looking at his compatriots to find Slash still busy with his blade and Flea fast asleep, he grumbles before collapsing in his own bed, cursing Dalton's name before succumbing to his exhaustion. ~Captain's Cabin - Skyship Blackbird~ Already asleep in his bed and clutching a stuffed Golem, Dalton begins sleeptalking about Lavos' power before going quiet once more.
~Skies of Tokyo~ High above the skies of Tokyo, well beyond the clouds flies the skyship Blackbird, the personal aircraft of Dalton, member of the Crystal Order. Inside the captain's cabin of the Blackbird, Dalton sits at his desk, deep in thought, until he hears knocking at his door. "Enter." says Dalton as the door opens to reveal Flea, Ozzie and Slash, the 'Ozzie Trio', as they enter the room. With a scowl, Dalton asks "What is it? Can't you see I'm busy!?" in an impatient tone, until Ozzie, cowering, steps forward and kneels, presenting a pendant made of a glowing red stone that was pulsing with power. "T-the Mammon Machine is finished charging up your pendant, sir. We just came by to bring it to you." whimpered the large green S-Type as Flea and Slash remain silent. Snatching the pendant out of Ozzie's hands, Dalton says "I suppose even you three dolts can do your jobs properly sometimes. Now get out." before waving the three away dismissively, causing them to leave the room as soon as possible. Sitting back down at his desk, Dalton begins admiring the pendant with a sinister smile on his face. "This energy is magnificent...simply magnificent. With the power of Lavos, the Crystal Order will be invincible! The world shall be ours!" ~Unknown Location~ Inside what appears to be a neverending abyss deep withing the earth, a titanic creature with a spiked shell begins to stir from it's deep slumber, disturbed from it's sleep by the drain on it's energy caused by the Mammon Machine.

(Do forgive me if I choose not to post images alongside my posts. This isn't against the rules, is it?) ~Repair Shop Somewhere In Tokyo~ As the opening hours of the Veldin Repair Shop came to an end and the last customer exits the building to go home for the day, a sigh of relief came from Ratchet, who wipes his brow and says "Well, closing time at last. About time too, eh Clank?", looking at his small metallic companion, who nods in agreement. "Indeed. I must admit that our customers today were...less than pleasant." Nodding in agreement, Ratchet scoffs and mutters a few unpleasant words to himself, before perking up as something comes to his mind. "Say Clank...think we should be getting back to that project of mine I've been talking about?" This question causes Clank's eyes to widen as he looks at Ratchet and asks "Do not tell me you still intend to construct something like that? Remember what happened last time?" Ratchet just grins as he grabs his wrench and heads towards another room, yelling out "Trial and error, Clank! I'll have to get it right eventually!" As Ratchet enters what appears to be his workshop, Clank palms his head as if soothing a headache before muttering "There is no changing his mind once it is set on something...though I suppose that is a trait I must admit I admire. However..." Before Clank can finish his monologue, an explosion is heard coming from the workshop, followed by a sizable plume of black smoke. "I do wish he would be just as careful. *sigh* Thank goodness this place is insured..." mused Clank as he enters the workshop. ~Nintendo High - Boiler Room~ Inside the now-empty school, the door to the boiler room opens up as Dingodile, one of the school's many janitors, enters the area, clutching a half-empty bottle of sake. Looking around with half-lidded, glassy eyes, Dingodile mutters something vulgar before scratching the crotch of his trousers as he takes another pull of the alcoholic drink, letting out a loud belch afterwards with a satisfied grin following it as he looks at the bottle, mumbling "Ahh, that's the ticket...gotta get me some more of that..." before haphazardly tossing the empty bottle at a nearby wall, shattering it. The broken bottle forgotten for the time being, Dingodile mutters "Now ta get me a little shuteye..." before staggering over to a dingy-looking cot in the corner of the room and flumping face-first onto it, falling into sweet unconsciousness upon landing on it, with loud obnoxious snores echoing through the room shortly after.
Hey guys, sorry for not being around here as much, but I've been busy with other things and the RP kind of slipped my mind. I'm back though and have a few new reserves in mind: Name: Yakra XIII Description: Descendent of the deceased S-Type Yakra, this sinister fiend seeks to avenge the death of his ancestor by any means necessary.

However, I do have a couple of reserves set up: Name: Marx Description: This mischievous troublemaker is one of the holders of the dark crystals and is trying to find other holders in order to assist the S-Types, though why he does is unknown.
