002 - Happy Halloween~

[Anyone who knows Dist will know he's a workaholic. What with having little to no true friends, as well as being a social outcast, he's dedicated himself to his research. During his stay in this new world, he's found a suitable place to live as well as do his experiments. And today is no different. He's been working well into the night, a bright opal moon glowing its white-gold light through a large, arched window. It gives his laboratory an eerie feel - shadows looking like the stuff of nightmares.

The researcher removes a vial from a tray, the murky red liquid sloshing thickly. Reaching for a syringe, he fills it with the solution and approaches his examination table, pushing up his rounded glasses. The moonlight shines off them, giving his already manic appearance a bit extra. Mad scientist? No, no, no... We much prefer evil genius.

Upon the examination table is a monster, probably unconscious from some sort of drug. Dist examines the small canine-like beast, checking its vital signs.]

Mm... Everything seems stable. Now, to add the drug. This should increase its overall physical abilities as well as slow the metabolism dramatically. [He smirks, eyes lighting up wickedly.] If this proves successful...

[But since when does anything ever go according to plan? Fate is an enemy of the God-General. As he reaches to inject the sleeping hound, the drug keeping it asleep wears off. Frantic, the beast howl and kicks its legs, knocking Dist's hand and the syringe away. Cursing, he reaches to grab the monster, but feels a hot, burning pain in his leg. Wincing, he looks down, and sees the needle pumping his unholy concoction right into his thigh. He removes it instantly, knocking it away as a burning, searing fire blazes its way through his body. He roars with pain and desperately looks for an antidote, knocking over vials, beakers, and papers. The sound of shattering glass and splattering fluids fills the night's grim air as the tiny monster whines, yelps and curls into a corner.]

Ggh... hrrg...!! Wh-What's... happening?! This--Aahhh!! I-It's not... I need--!!

[He collapses into a dark corner of his laboratory, and silence reigns. The only sound that can be heard is the whimpering of the little monster, scratching frantically at the wall behind it. It knew something was there with it. Coming closer... Its yelps and squeals become howls and screams as a heavy breathing flows into the mix.

The howls stop.

...

. . .

Thud.]

Hahahaa....

[Ooc: HAPPY HALLOWEEN, PEOPLES! 83 Have a vampire!Dist. He's going to be prowling around the city, looking for some noms. Anyone wanna have some fun with this guy, dohoho~?

Things to Note:
- Dist DOES know something is wrong with him, that he's dangerous to people, and will give fair warning to some people before attacking them, but his control will be in little bursts here and there.
- Dist's abilities are HIGHLY increased. This means speed, strength, endurance, defense, and magic will all be a LOT stronger than normal.
- Dist needs blood, obviously. And nothing is safe. If you want him to bite you please include the tag BAIT as the comment title. If you merely want him to target your character but not bite them, please include the TARGET title.
- THREADJACKING IS ALLOWED, AND EVEN ENCOURAGED! Have people come to the rescue!
- Dist cannot die. But he CAN BE HURT. Fire and Light artes do a very heavy toll on him. Magic in general is pretty effective, but he's completely immune to Dark, and will laugh at you if you use it on him. :|b
- He's going to turn back on Sunday night. He'll have gained some kind of control to return to his lab and inject the antidote into himself on that day.

If this isn't okay with the mods, I'll take it down. Have fun, guys! &hearts]

[The spear penetrates his clothes and skin, piercing its way through the vampire's side. He merely stumbles from the wound, but that is enough for him to be hit by the powerful arte. Red eyes go wide as the impact of those burning light fonons crash over him, tearing long, deep gashes over his skin. Blood sprays and splatters as he crumples to his hands and knees, howling in pain, but the howl mingles with a mortal's cry.]

AAAAAHHHH!!!

[Shuddering, and soon heaving a mouthful of thick, red liquid, Saphir collapses, cuts and gashes all over his body. He looks damaged beyond recognition as he just lays there. Out cold. His body smoulders slightly, clothes seared and singed as well.]

...

[Jade reels back as the arte hits, only watching as Dist is torn apart and practically scorched. The scream doesn't faze him.]

[He is rather surprised at Anise's strength, but doesn't say a word about it. That was best left for later. As for Dist, he steps carefully over to the vampire...]

[He was out cold. He wasn't entirely certain whether he was dead--as dead as a vampire can be--but either way, if there was a chance to save him, now was the time to take it.]

[So he picks up the lifeless body in his arms.] Anise, let's go back to Dist's laboratory. I suspect this was brought upon by his idiotic experiments.

[Even Anise is surprised at her own arte's strength. She shields her eyes from the intensity of the light-based attack - and when it clears, she blanches a little bit. The Colonel may not have any misgivings about attacking Dist, and she had been all set to hand him his ass in a fight, but - ]

[Seeing him like this made her feel a little terrible. That - that was a lot of blood, those were some nasty burns and - and --]

I-idiotic experiments...? [She looks shaken. Be it from the fight or from Dist's forward actions earlier that are only now catching up to her is up in the air.] Ah, right... Maybe there's an antidote or something.

[Because Dist isn't dead, right? She'll follow the Colonel closely, then.]

[Dist is bleeding nicely into his clothes, but thankfully, they were made for that sort of thing. He begins to walk off back towards Dist's house and lab, stepping over debris on the way in. He lay him on the table inside, shuffling through his things to try to find something that told him what happened. Aside from the dead monster, that was.]

[And when he checks in the fridge... Hm. It was worth a shot. Worse-case, Dist died. No loss, there.] I certainly hope he hasn't contracted any blood-borne diseases... [Jade looked down at his hands and his clothing with a sigh. He would have to clean up after this.]

[Anise hangs by the examining table, hovering as close as she dares to Dist. Worried as she is, she doesn't forget that about his new-found abilities, and could very easily overpower her if she wasn't careful.]

You said so yourself, Colonel. That Dist is as tenacious as a cockroach. He'll be okay, right?

[Her own costume had dried blood all over it, some of it fresh from Dist, and a few cuts that she'd contained. She looked a right mess, and she sighs. It was such a nice costume, too...]

[Jade will be taking out the serum and filling a syringe with it. He wasn't too keen on the dose, but... Well, we'll just guessimate.]

[So he finds a spot on Dist that ISN'T cut or burned and carefully administers the serum. He'll be guiding Anise back from the body, now, and setting the syringe on a nearby tray.] He should be. Then again, cockroaches only have a lifespan of one year. He's long overdue.

Nn!

[The serum is applied and Dist's clawed, scorched fingers twitch. He tenses, chest rising a little off the examination table a little and teeth clenching, but he relaxes. Looks like he wasn't dead after all. His breathing resumes and slowly, the claws begin to retract, his face becoming less and less ghastly pale and more like his usual ivory complexion. Dist never did get a lot of sun anyway.

He looks fairly normal now, and thought his eyes were closed, they had retained their once shimmery magenta-red color. His fangs and claws were gone, and he almost seems kind of peaceful. Except for the fact he's still a bloody mess.]

Boo, Colonel, don't even joke about that-- [She stops short, as Dist moves on the examination table, eyes wide. It wasn't safe, the Colonel moving her back had told her as much, but. This was Dist! She gets closer, in morbid fascination and concern for the older man.]

[... He did look relatively normal, now, and for that she was relieved. Anise let out a breath she didn't know she was holding. He was going to be okay, good.]

... I wonder if he'll wake, soon. We have to change him out of his clothes. [They're not only bloody, but they're a ripped mess barely hanging off of him. He'll throw a fit when he wakes up.]

[Jade just looked on as Dist slowly changed back.] ... Hm. That was a rather lucky choice. I managed to pick the antidote on the first try~ [Way to maybe almost kill Dist, Jade.]

[He sighed. He was half-tempted to leave him there, but... Jade stepped over to the bloodied man, going to find some bandages that weren't torn to shreds along with some antiseptic liquid.]

[Dist is going to have quite a few field dressings when he wakes up. And no shirt. Ha can go find his own clothing.] I'll have to have a change of clothes, as well. I have no idea how many different people have their blood on me. It's a wonder my shirt hasn't become one giant blood clot.

[Dist, unfortunately, takes the opportunity to wake up a moment after he's patched up and clothed in something other than his tattered rags. Damn, he needs to get a new suit. God freaking damn. He tries to sit up, but the pain that shoots from every part of his body tell him that's.... not a good idea. He lets out a soft cry of pain and just turns his head a little. That he can do.]

Wh-What... where?

[Then his blinks and realizes. Oh... Oh Yulia. All those things he did! People he hurt--No, no no! The older man turns his head again and squeezes his eyes shut. You should have killed him . He didn't deserve to live after that.]

[Ah-- he's awake! And stirring. Anise goes a little closer; no she is most definitely not worried what are you talking about.]

Dist. Hey, Dist. Ah - don't move, it's all right. We brought you back to your lab. [She peers down at him with wide brown eyes, alight with concern.] Geez, what did you do to yourself, back there? [Hover hover hover. There's a hand resting on your arm right now, Dist.]

[She looks up at the Colonel for a bit to answer him, before turning her attention back on the bloodied man on the table.]

While you're stitching him back together I can go find a change of clothes for you guys. And me, as well, while I'm at it. How about that?

[He would have shoved you back down had you sat up, anyway, Dist. He's trying to bandage you, damnit. He'll continue wrapping the arm he was working on.]

... That sounds like an excellent idea. [He'd like to talk to Dist by himself, anyway.] Make sure to find something especially embarrassing for this one~

[She gives Dist one last look before she heads out.]

I'll see what I can find, Colonel~ I'll be back soon. Try not to kill Dist, okay? That'd be all sorts of counter-productive~ ♥

[Aaaand she's out the door. Don't have too much fun without her.]

[Dist flutters his eyes a little, then the voice of the Fon Master makes him snap his head towards her, eyes wide. He doesn't reply, lets the two talk, but he flinches when she touches him. His gaze falls from hers quickly, head headed away, a few strands of his bloodied hair falling to further mask his guilty expression. How could he have...

When the man is sure Anise is gone and he's alone with Jade, he speaks in a quiet, pained, and raspy voice. He was still aching all over. But the words he says are absolutely serious. He's not kidding in the least.]

If...If you're planning to k-kill me, J-Jade... Do it now. Th-There are various p-poisons and drugs that stop b-b-blood flow and cause res-respiratory f-failure. Just--Say...Say I bled to death.

[Tears dampen the scientist's face as he makes no attempt to stop them now. He doesn't even care how far fetched that'd sound when Anise would return. He's begging. How can he ever look her in the eyes again? Look you, or anyone he attacked, in the eyes again? He couldn't. Not without feeling the guilt gnaw at his already wounded heart.]

[Jade just stops what he's doing and sighs, holding his forehead. Dist had never been the smartest person on the planet.] If I planned to kill you, I wouldn't be bandaging your wounds. That would be quite the waste of time, wouldn't it?

Get ahold of yourself. You weren't yourself; I don't blame you. I'm sure no one else will. [And, ow, he'll tie that bandage rather tight. Words like that tend to make him angry, especially coming from his favorite annoyance.]

[After, he pulls a pineapple gel from his pouch and unwraps it, holding it close to Dist's mouth.] Can you manage to chew a bit?

Edited 2009-11-05 20:18 (UTC)

Wh-Why...?

[Why don't you blame him? Why are you even bothering healing him, Jade? You never cared before, why now, when he was so ready to be killed. He hurt people he cared about. Precious people... And you had to just mock him further.

Dist winces and cries out softly when that one bandage pulls at his sensitive skin. He gasps a little, choking on his quiet tears. They should blame him. He was so weak... So useless. He couldn't control that thing! He shouldn't have even--Just... Yulia...! He was so stupid!]

...

[He doesn't want to, but takes the gel into his mouth and chews slowly, swallowing a moment later. The taste was odd, almost overpowering after having to be sustained off blood alone. His sense of taste was a little off. He makes a face and turns his head away, but feels strength slowly return to him. Those things were always so weird. The texture, the taste... How could people stand them? Dist always liked conventional medicine over modern day frivolities.]

...I'm sorry, Jade.

Why? Because that's a coward's way to escape. [And he could sense the guilt... All the other times, they had been when Dist had chosen to hurt people. He consciously knew what he was doing and still ran along his own path. Now... Jade wasn't even sure if he could have had control over that beast if the same had happened to him. Why would he blame Dist?]

[Granted, even if the serum was because of Dist's idiotic experiment... Jade knew when enough punishment was enough.] There's quite the difference between consciously choosing your actions and being controlled. ... If you think it best, then I won't stop you, but your death won't be by my hand. [And with that, he holds out his handkerchief for the other. You really do look pathetic like that, Saphir, blubbering all over the place. As cold as he was to Dist, it was more like tough love; something he desperately needed.]

[~~And suck it up, soldier. It's just a gummy.~~] ... The only thing you have to be sorry for is for getting on my nerves.

[The God-General laughs weakly. You're right, Jade. He knows you're right, but he can't help it.]

I suppose I've always been a bit of a coward, Jade. [His smile fades a little and he closes his eyes to let his friend work without distraction.] It was... I-I tried, Jade. I wan't... I couldn't stop it.

[He takes the offered item and carefully wipes his face. It hurt a little to move too much, but he had stopped crying at the very least. He turns his face to his friend and looks at him. No, he wouldn't take his life. He'd live with this guilt. He had to. When the last words fall, he laughs quietly.]

Hahaa... That's what friends are for, correct?

I'm glad you see it my way. It certainly took you long enough.

[He sighed, a long-suffering sigh. There was another bandage a bit too tight...] Saphir, please stop talking. Your incessant babbling isn't solving anything.

[And with that, he's basically done, save for a few small cuts that Dist could easily stick a band-aid on. Jade wasn't his mommy. Dist could fend for himself.]

[And as per usual:] I simply must know what Jade you know with such poor taste in friends.

[He winces again when the stabbing pain shoots through him. But he doesn't complain, or say any more. He agreed that he deserved the small form of punishment from his friend. Dist's eyes hood wearily as he lets the man work. He was so sleepy... Losing almost half your blood from a powerful fonic arte that was meant to kill really was tiring business, you know. He didn't respond to his friend's jab, as he usually would in any other circumstance, just smirks. Whatever you say, Jade.

When he was done, he turned his head to the other side and watched the door for Anise. He honestly doubted he'd be able to change into anything. Right now, all he wanted to do was rest a little. The ~~atrocious~~ gummy did help a little, but he just needed to gather himself after a bit of sleep. Still, the fontechnician forced himself awake until the Fon Master returned. He had to apologize to her, too.]

[Right on cue, Anise walks in, holding a couple of packages in her arms. She's changed from that witch's costume she was wearing earlier ~~sorry guys, show's done for the night~~, and into more practical outfit consisting of tights and a dark pink version of her Guardian uniform, minus the white vestment.]

-- Sorry that took a while. Is he all right, Colonel...?

[Dist really could suck it up and take his punishment like a woman.]

[And he could easily kill you right now, Dist~]

[Jade will be finishing up and cleaning up the supplies just as Anise returns.] I was expecting you back after I had extracted the liver. Oh well... Another day, perhaps.

Minus his usual idiocy? He's fine. [He's RIGHT THERE, Jade... He'll be taking those clothes to go change.] Thank you, Anise. Keep him company while I'm gone~

[Dist sighs a little and looks up at his friend with a look at equates to "your mom" when Jade makes that crack at experimenting on him. He opens his eyes and peers after Jade when he leaves, trying to lift his head off the cold and uncomfortable examination table, but regrets it after a wonderful headache jabs at his temples. He groans and lays it back down.]

Nnng...

[He grimaces a little. Ugh, he hated not being able to move. This sucked. He couldn't even get away from there and wallow in his self loathing after he apologized profusely to Anise like he intended. Damn. He knew he'd be back on his feet in a few days - he was indestructible, remember? - but not soon enough, he thought. Once Jade is gone, he chances a glance to the woman.]

Anise...

[Oh so she and the Colonel are taking shifts now. She shrugs and lets him go, smoothing down the wrinkles in her own clothes. But that little cry of pain from the fontechnician gets her attention, so she turns to him immediately - ]

Lorelei, Dist, you look horrible-! [No thanks to her, but she conveniently forgets that.]

Ah - can I get you anything? The Colonel didn't really do any lasting damage to you while I was gone, did he?
