Summary: The Event takes a toll for the worse as Ishtar, Kuwabara, and Tear delve into it. There is possible angst, depression, and other sort sorts of thing being brought to life. The sorrows, and the losses, will definitely be a huge effect on most of them.
Warning: Possible Blood & Gore Language Other possible graphic descriptions, angst, depression, and the things that people go through when they are faced with the people from their home and in these pups’ cases, the guilt of being unable to protect and prevent the end of their world. Just be aware when tagging into this log it will contain all of the above, perhaps not as detailed but there will be mentions and such.

Kazuma Kuwabara

"this ain't over yet."

"Oi Kuwabara, you're not mopin' are ya, because if you are I'm going to kick your ass?"

"There are many things left undone, Kuwabara. We're counting on you."

"Tch' I'll leave it to you oaf, don't you dare fail."


The voices continued. Strangely enough, despite the world being annihilated, Kuwabara was met with words that didn't seem negative at all. It was as if they didn't want to blame him for being the only one. It was typical of his friends. If he could save the world in one swoop, he would, or if he could sacrifice himself for everyone he cared about, he would.

Dying wasn't the typical thing a teenager should be thinking about, but Kuwabara knew the consequences and the rules of death. He had faced so many situations that made him realize how precious human life was, but despite that, he was willing to give it up, even if it meant he was unable to see his friends again. Unfortunately, that was not an option right now. Kuwabara's the only hope for his world, and even if Kido could help, he was not a fighter. Kuwabara knew that.

The guilt ate him a little at a time, but those words continued to plague his mind.

"Stop moping around idiot!"

"Do I have to crawl out of my grave and beat your ass up again?"

"You'll do fine, Kuwabara."

"It's okay, Kazuma, I know you can do it."

"You going to keel over, baby bro, after all that has happened? Don't make me kick your ass too."

"Kuwabara I know you can do it. Having you on my team was a pleasure."

"You can't slack off now, Kuwabara, nya!"


He clenched his fists. The sounds of the voices continued to echo through his mind.

"You're at least more reliable than the dimwit over here, Kuwabara. You know what to do."

The words, they plagued him. The more he thought and heard, them, the more guilt manifested. He knew the words were not negative, hell who in their right mind would even say shit to him like that? There was no one but his friends, and his home. They were the source of his strength and his sorrows. He felt their words meant that he couldn't let them down. He couldn't lose, and he had to win, but Kuwabara was not as strong as his friends. He may be on the same standing ground, but he had much to learn, and that burden of trying to save the world on his own, it weighed on him and clouded his mind.

He had to get over it, he had to persevere, but it was hard. The voices continued and continued. The shadows wouldn't leave him alone and each one bore a face of a friend or family he knew. He really couldn't bear to face it right now but he had to. Kuwabara had to fight this somehow but it was heartbreaking to know that he couldn't see his friends or home...at least not yet.

Tear Grants

"I must remain strong."

"♪ Tue rei ze croa riou tue ze ♫."

Tear was using her hymns to alleviate the shadows that stalked her and unfortunately, it didn't seem like it was working in her favour. It wasn't that Tear could not handle such things. It was the fact that she was plagued by things she did not quite fully grasp yet because of her short time here, she had a lot to understand grasp. She knew that her situation was better off than many people from her world, and those that were here, she knew that some of them were from different time points. Those explanations continued to haunt her as she ventured about the tower to rid herself of the shadow children that followed her, whispering things that she didn't want to hear, and grasping her guilt.

The worst of it was that these shadow children were like ghosts, trailing behind her, eerie and cold. The feeling of fear overwhelmed her, but she did what she could to fight them off. She tried what she could to remain strong, but it wasn't working. It was as if her mask was easily cracked by the things were said. Her attacks seemed to fail. There was no point in attacking ghostly figures that had no real form. A lesson she learned from using her knives on them. The combination of ghostly shadows and words of blame were not mixing well with her, despite her hardened expression. Pain continued to blossom from her chest as the whispers continued.

"What of the methods to conserve your Auldrant? It has become naught, Mystearica."

That cold voice, whispering her name, with a sinister smile, blaming her methods, and her ways. She was suppose to top Van. She was suppose to stop her brother from destroying Auldrant, but right now there was no Auldrant to protect, no Auldrant to preserve. The worst part was she couldn't do anything but try to attempt a normal life here. As a soldier, she had to remain headstrong and as a soldier she had to find her way back, but right now she didn't know what she could do. She didn't know how to ask for help and she certainly didn't want to show her weakness to others.

Eventually, she was worn out by the voices calling her, reaching for her.

"Were you not serious? Is that why you were idling around, wasting time? You said you will stop me, yet you are unable to leave such a petty place."

Her brother voice continued to reach for her. She didn't give up, but she lowered herself to the floor, hands clutching her chest. That's right, she had to get out of here.

Ishtar

"this can't be happening"

Ishtar conditioned worsened by the hours. The minute this all started was the minute she fell to it, letting it cling to her, and clutch to her, like invisible hands. Ishtar was curled up in a ball, with her hands over her head and ears, trying to omit the voices that haunted her mind. The words were not cruel, but the intentions and meanings behind them screamed cruel.

"Ishtar...."

That voice she had not heard in a long time was the first to speak. His voice alone already made her uncomfortable. She tried to get away from him. The strongest voice of the masses that followed her. This shadow child that looke completely identical to the silver haired vampire she knew, down to the red glowing eyes that stared blankly at her.

"You should be careful of your actions princess, seeing what they've done to me. Will you just sit here and let them do as they please, while I have to take the hit for you?"

That's right. Duzell's always the one that protected her and kept her safe when Darres wasn't around.

"Is Darres that important that words you have said to me are insignificant? Will you sit idle and watch the world you know crumble? You're going to let everyone do the work for you aren't you? It's no different then, and it's no different now. Whether it's Pheliosta, Facility or this Tower, you can't even fight for what you want."

"Have you lost faith? You know that I'll always be by your side, yours and Darres'."
A soothing voice penetrates the harsh one.

The child appeared identical to Yujinn and had his same silver hair and violet eyes. The kindness in them hadn't changed and Ishtar had to look away. It was painful. She had left Yujinn behind in that hellish place to be here. She couldn't do anything for Yujinn, not when he died, and certainly not when they were at Facility. She couldn't look at his face.

"Hey idiot, don't just sit there. If you're going to do something then do it."

Another rougher voice. She knew that one too.

"Ishtar is always trying her hardest, but the Ishtar I know wouldn't be this pathetic. If Ishtar wants something, then Ishtar should seize it. Will Ishtar fight?"

The other softer voice, almost identical to the rough one. Ishtar pulled herself up. Those faces, and the voices. She couldn't take anymore of it.

"It's not...I'm not trying to-- please I'm sorry...everyone...I'm sorry."

Another face appeared in the darkness. He didn't have to say anything for Ishtar to remember the time she spent with him. The one that suffered terrible experiment with her in his short time, and the bat that she took care of for him now. Suddenly, the scar where that doctor stabbed her was starting to ache invisibly.

"I assume that they're all my rugs now, seeing Duzell made a great one. You're pathetic to think that you can stop the Consortium. Look where it took you, Princess."

A sneering face. She remembered that damn bastard's face. The asshole who attacked them when she was back in Facility, "Shut up you know nothing! NOTHING!"

Ishtar dashed down the hallways now, forgetting that danger lurked everywhere. She just wanted the voices to stop.

[Great, now some human he didn't even know was trying to help him. Not that he hasn't accepted help from them before, but things were different now. His home needed help and as far as he knew, he was the only one from it.

"To think you would stoop so low." And as if to make matters worse, his own brother was mocking him about it. This really wasn't his day. ]


What're you rambling about?

[He's never felt this weak before, even as a human.]

ainohenshin: (back off man)

[personal profile] ainohenshin 2013-08-22 09:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[ A person needing help was a person needing help. He didn't care if it was embarrassing or not. He'd accept help if he knew he couldn't take it on his own and that was exactly what he's doing to Inuyasha right now.

The voices were vague on his mind, since Kuwabara's headstrong will had made most of it either submit or someone helped him eradicate them for a short time. ]


I mean ya look like a damn ghost and yer collar's fading!

[ He shouted this time. ]
hardedge: (wanna repeat that)

[personal profile] hardedge 2013-08-26 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
I can hear you just fine! [His ears twitched in irritation. They were a tad more sensitive than usual. The half demon managed to shove the human off of him. He stumbled back and leaned against the wall.

"Some demon you are, InuYasha! What makes you think being full fledge would aid you further?"]


I don't need your help.
ainohenshin: (fuck you just fuck you)

[personal profile] ainohenshin 2013-08-29 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
Then stop tryin' ta sleep on me dammit!

[ He'd punch you if you kept this up Inuyasha. Kuwabara stumbled back at the push and he gives him a look. ]

Oi, what's the big idea?

[ Kuwabara steps towards him. ]Lookit here you! You look like you're gonna die any second here, so don't give me that crap!
hardedge: (it hurt)

[personal profile] hardedge 2013-09-10 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
Me die here? That's a laugh!

[He was stronger than that. He had to be. It wasn't as if he were fatally wounded or anything.

"There you go pushing away others again! You're...You're so stupid! I hate you!"

InuYasha pressed against the wall.]
ainohenshin: (that's cuhs 'm Kuwabara!)

[personal profile] ainohenshin 2013-09-11 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
Are you stupid?! Even tough asses like yourself can keel over here

[ Kuwabara grabbed him by the shoulder again. ] Look man, ya need some serious help and I ain't leaving you here!
hardedge: (thats not what you told me)

[personal profile] hardedge 2013-09-11 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
What do you care? [InuYasha smacked him off. Persisted idiot!]

I'm just some demon.
ainohenshin: (yeah  yeahhh I get it)

[personal profile] ainohenshin 2013-09-11 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't care even if you're a goddamn goblin! We're all stuck in this hell hole, so might as well get along.

[ don't make him punch you Inuyasha. Kuwabara's persistent and he grabbed him again. ]

Yeah well, you ain't a bloodthirsty son of bitch killin' people are ya?
hardedge: (it hurt)

[personal profile] hardedge 2013-09-12 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
GRRRH! [The over exertion caused him to suddenly collapse.

"Pitiful."]
ainohenshin: (serious face)

[personal profile] ainohenshin 2013-09-13 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Jeez, if you would just listen to me!

[ He reached over to assist him from collapsing at least. ]

You damn demons sure are prideful. Just let me get ya back to your room or somethin'
hardedge: (shitshit)

[personal profile] hardedge 2013-09-14 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
[The half demon managed a growl.] Don't you...dare...take me there.
ainohenshin: (fuck you just fuck you)

[personal profile] ainohenshin 2013-09-14 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
Th' hell! If you ain't gonna be in your room, you're gonna suffer for it.

[ hello you're suppose to be in your room sleeping from time to time idiot!! ]

Then where the hell do ya want to take me?
hardedge: (ruff ruff)

[personal profile] hardedge 2013-09-14 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
Lay off!

[He didn't care. InuYasha couldn't stand the dorms and their dull appearance. He wasn't attached to his roommates and he didn't want to be around people.

At least he wasn't resisting as much. Whether he wanted to or not.]


Thirty...two.

[If he was going to die, he wanted it to be there.]
ainohenshin: (that's cuhs 'm Kuwabara!)

[personal profile] ainohenshin 2013-09-16 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)
What the hell is wrong with you?!

[ Kuwabara shouted back equally pissed off. What is with demons being huge ass pricks?! He's so tired of all this crap right about now!

Thankfully he was glad for it. ]


Thirty Two? You mean the thirty second floor?

[ God at least he was getting somewhere. ] Hey, you ain dying on me got it?
hardedge: (wanna repeat that)

[personal profile] hardedge 2013-09-17 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
None of your...damn business!

[That's just how they were okay, okay! Kuwabara ought to be use to it by now!]

Why do...you care?
ainohenshin: (that damn midget guy)

[personal profile] ainohenshin 2013-09-26 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
It is my business if you're fallin' over like a moron!

[ He snapped back. Yeah but that doesn't mean he has to take it all the time. ]

Cuz we're all stuck in this shit hole, it's better making friends and shit than making enemies, so stop takin' and let me take ya to whatever the hell ya want to go.
hardedge: (thats not what you told me)

[personal profile] hardedge 2013-09-26 09:10 am (UTC)(link)
Just shut up.......and take me there.

[Oh dear, he was growing weaker. Soon talking will be a challenge.]
ainohenshin: (that's cuhs 'm Kuwabara!)

[personal profile] ainohenshin 2013-10-02 03:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Do you haveta be rude ass about it? Geez.

[ Yeah, yeah he's carrying your sorry ass over there. ]

[personal profile] hardedge 2013-10-07 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
[InuYasha grew a bit solemn as time passed. The half demon was quite for quite a bit of the traveling.

He has to ask...]


Why are you-[The demon flinched as he felt a sudden drain of energy. Damn it, how did he get this weak?]
hardedge: (ruff ruff)

2/2

[personal profile] hardedge 2013-10-07 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
-bothering.

You don't [A long pause. he felt his presence dimming.] know me.

[If he didn't know any better he would be able to smell his own death drawing nearer.]
ainohenshin: (sorrow)

[personal profile] ainohenshin 2013-10-08 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
That's a stupid question, even for a demon. Look man, I ain't going to leave any guy to fend for himself just cuz he doesn't want people ta save 'em. No one's dying on my watch.

[ He replied giving Inuyasha a serious reply. ] Man's gotta do what a man's gotta do. I don't matter if I know you or not.

[ god damn it keep alive! Kuwa noticed it, or rather he started to feel it. ]
hardedge: (demoooooon?)

[personal profile] hardedge 2013-10-08 08:49 am (UTC)(link)
Heh! [Kuwabara managed a brief chuckle from InuYasha.

He should take that as a compliment! Unfortunately shortly after, all signs of life had ceased from his body.]
ainohenshin: (freaked out)

[personal profile] ainohenshin 2013-10-08 06:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Oi, hey!

[ He could feel so that made the whole situation much, much worse! ]

Don't you keel over on me, hey!

[ He stopped to noticed that he was too late and that the feeling of that person's life was gone. ]

Damn it you little bastard!

[ He really wanted to punch him but he couldn't ]

HEY wake up, you can't just die like this!
