[glow=blue,2,300]Intermissions 3:[/glow]
Well not much of an intermission is it. The story is already over. But there is good reason to be running up this one. I’m going to tell you all of Annelie and Zerachiel’s origin and perhaps shed a bit of light on where Annelie is now…. Nah. I’ll just tell about Zerachiel.
Zerachiel and Annelie were born as test tube babies so to speak. Annelie is a full-blooded alp but does not own an alp hat because she wasn’t naturally born.
Zerachiel on the other hand is a variant. Zerachiel’s DNA is a made from a combination of various demon species all spliced together by Hexavier’s doing. Her race is defined as Scotodino because that makes up about 75% of her genetic makeup. The other 25% are divided up among more powerful races bloodlines such as Ancient and Elite vampires though the small amount of their bloodlines genetics means she doesn’t get most of their stronger powers like the Elite’s near immortality or an Ancients Mind Control. However she’s fairly hard to kill and does have impressive mind suggestion powers. (The difference between control and suggestion is that control is absolute and suggestion can fail against more intellectual peoples.)
-So I’m not important enough to be talked about?-
Oh we’ll get to you later when the main story arc’s of these fanfics gets closer to completion.
-Lazy. –
Mehbeh. Anyways Ja ne.

[glow=red,2,300]Aftermath 1: It’s not a date! Or is it?[/glow]
“I thought we were just taking a casual walk. If I knew we were going into town I would have grabbed my sunglasses and hat.” Zerachiel and Zeno were walking though town, attracting stares here and there but for the most part going ignored. Zerachiel seemed a little more interested in the landscape than remaining inconspicuous.
“Don’t worry about it. For the most part we look like two kids in costumes.” Zerachiel shrugged looking at the nearby trees. “Besides it’s so beautiful here why would anyone care about de… mmph!
“Shh… humans have a hard time accepting the existence of demons.” Zeno had covered Zerachiel’s mouth with his hand. After a moment he slowly removed it.
“Zeno humans for the most part laughed of the existence of demons in my world and that’s why the entire population of demons and humans combined is 1.2 million. Of that less than 2000 are human.” Zerachiel adjusted her glasses for a minute and then took them off handing them to Zeno. “If you’re so worried about it you can wear my glasses till we get out of public. Push the little button on the left arm of the frame to adjust the lenses color and on the right arm to adjust the lenses to your eyes so you can see properly.”
Zeno looked at the glasses and back at Zerachiel who was attempting to look at a flower but now having a hard time of it. After a moment Zeno sighed and returned Zerachiel’s glasses. “Fine. Just no talking about it to loudly.”
Zerachiel put her glasses back on grinning and threw her arms around Zeno’s neck giving him a peck on the cheek. “Thanks. Now lets go shopping. We passed the mall a few minutes back and I wanted to look inside it.”
“Uh, sure.” Zeno stayed still for a couple moments before following after Zerachiel.
The mall was an interesting experience. For some reason everyone just up and decided to leave after shutting down the security system. Zerachiel made her way from shop to shop every once and a while trying an outfit on or making Zeno try an outfit on. Eventually they came to a stop in the food court.
Zerachiel hopped behind the counters of various food stores from Pizza Queen to Burrito Gong to Hidevenus and more. Eventually she managed to forge a meal of sorts made from a hodgepodge of items. “Leave the bags by that table and take a seat. I’ll come to you.”
-Yeah I wish.- Zeno sighed setting down the bags of clothes and such and setting at a table.
“What’s wrong Zeno? I promise it’s edible.” Zerachiel laughed softly setting a couple trays of food on the table.
Zeno sighed looking at the food. “Sorry just thinking bout some things.”
“Oh? Like what?” Zerachiel looked at Zeno with a curious look on her face.
“Nothing.” Zeno hopped up. “I’ll be right back.”
“Hmm… so cute.” Zerachiel laughed picking though the food.

[glow=red,2,300]Aftermath 2: Ethics or Lack Thereof[/glow] "Wait you just picked up all this stuff while you were in the mall?" In the cabin everyone was surrounding Zerachiel and Zeno whom had collected a large amount of clothing and jewelry while they were in the mall among other things. "No I paid for it." Zerachiel adjusted her glasses with a rather annoyed look on her face. "With what? This stuff is worth thousands of dollars." Charby looked over the clothing. "I know that. But you'd be quite amazed how much money you can make with a job." Zerachiel laughed softly pulling a fat money clip out of her pocket.
"Wait you havent even been here a day. How did you make that much money?" Hex scratched his head.
"Selling lemonade. Zeno didn't think it would be nice to just leave with all the stuff we collected at the mall so we went and made some and people wanted it in droves." Zerachiel laughed ruffling Zeno's hair.
"Wait. You made thousands on lemonade? That reeks of mind control." Charby looked at Zerachiel suspiciously. "I thought that scotodino couldn't read minds."
Zerachiel looked down and mumbled something.
"What was that? I couldn't quite hear you." Charby moved closer.
"I said I'm a half breed ok!? You happy now that you exposed my shameful secret, huh?!" Zerachiel ran out of the cabin and took off into the tree tops. Zeno ran after her.
"Smooth Charby. Smooth." Hex glared at Charby and looked out the door wishing he could fly.

shes really embarrassed about the half blood thing because most half breeds in her world don't get rank in military organizations but if you'll recall she was a lieutenant. Which is the highest rank that artificial life forms like her and Fear can have but most of the officers be they artificial or not are pure blooded.

Ah... that explains that bit.
A bit of a messed up way to make the money, but eh.
Charby lacks tact xD

Post by tabiris on Aug 7, 2008 0:05:12 GMT -5
messed up way. she only has the ability to psychicly suggest things. she cant make people do anything she wants them to. but she can read their minds so she puts the thought to go do what they want deep into their minds. as for the lemonade thing. she's got people to buy to help to cute little children out. XD

Just wanted to let you know that I enjoyed this story immensely, and I'm quite enjoying these little epilogue bits too. It's fun seeing how they are adjusting to the "normal" life there, hehe! Poor Zerachiel though, I feel bad for her. Way to go Charby, ya meanie!

[glow=red,2,300]Aftermath 3: How to NOT Abuse Mind Powers[/glow]
“Ah, fresh air. Meddlesome elites, always acting superior no matter what dimension you’re in.” Zerachiel was sitting at the edge of the forest in one of the trees. “Zeno, I know you’re there. It’s alright to show yourself.”
Zeno hopped onto the branch above Zerachiel’s. “So. Uh…”
“What is it Zeno?” Zerachiel looked up at Zeno.
“It’s… you know… that thing that happened back there…” Zeno hopped down to Zerachiel’s branch slowly.
“The half breed thing?” Zerachiel sighed. “That’s my business. Why would I tell you?”
"Actually I was referring to the mind powers thing.” Zeno looked over at the children playing in the nearby playground.
“What of it? I can’t force anyone to do anything. But I can read minds and from that plant suggestions on what to do based on their already existing desires. For instance the children out there all hate each other but hang out just because they don’t want to be alone. With a little tweaking I could have them killing each other. But that would be terrible.” Zerachiel leaned against Zeno. “You’re a strange one you know that?”
“That’s a case of the pot calling the kettle black.” Zeno smirked.
“True. But you’re mind is blank to me. It’s nice actually. I’ve always hated it. Hated knowing everything about the people around me.” Zerachiel sighed. “Oh dear I’m yammering on aren’t I?”
Zeno hesitated for a moment then put an arm around Zerachiel’s shoulders. “It’s fine. We all need to talk about our problems from time to time.”
“You shouldn’t…” The children in the park had noticed Zeno and Zerachiel and were singing the K I S S I N G song at them. Zerachiel frowned and suddenly the children were fighting each other with knives and spray paints. “As I was saying. You shouldn’t say that. I’ve got a lot of problems that need venting on. Having the kids kill each other is a less terrible sight then I thought.”

[glow=red,2,300]Aftermath 4: Father Dearest[/glow]
Drama finally down to a minor cacophony Zerachiel and Zeno returned to the cabin, hand in hand. Of course this brought on a drama of it's own focused around Hexavier of all people whom promptly stomped off to his cave when he saw the scotodinos return.
"Well that was odd." Mye and Tony whom had been on the sofa were witness to the entire thing. "Whats were dat abouts?"
Zerachiel sighed rubbing her head. "I was hoping he'd not be thinking things like that."
"What's got him in such a foul mood?" Zeno looked at Zerachiel.
"Some thoughts I'm going to nip in the bud right now. Why don't you put those new things in the room I'll be there in a minute." Zerachiel patted Zeno's head smiling and hopped down the stairs to the basement.
"Oh ho. Sos Zenos finally gots himselfs ein dame." Tony chuckled.
"I dunno. Maybe." Zeno sighed getting the clothes that Zerachiel and he had picked up at the mall and brought them into his room.
Down in the dank dark of the basement Zerachiel treaded lightly wary of projectile beakers. "Hex?"
"What?" Hex was working on some potion or another not bothering to look at Zerachiel.
"Don't give me that? I knew about what you thought of me. I know you like me and I'm flattered really but there's a good reason I don't like you like that. I think of you as a father." Zerachiel took a seat at the base of the stairs watching Hex.
Hex dropped a flask of some purple gunk that exploded into a smokescreen on the floor. "Say that again, I think there was something crazy in my ear. I mean I know I materialized you but father?"
"It goes back farther than that Hex. My birth was unconventional; I don't have parents. The closest thing I had to a father was Professor Ducayne. Professor Xavier Edwin Ducayne was the head of ALP. The Artificial Lifeform Project. There were several stages. The first stage was simple enough just creating simplistic lower minded creatures. Second stage was the first intellectual products of ALP, and stage three was the variants: combination breeds that were capable of multiple demons or demon kins powers. Professor Ducayne personally oversaw Stage Three. You can piece the rest together yourself." Zerachiel looked up at the ceiling.
"Ok so my other self was like a father to you. Did he treat all stage threes like his children or just you?" Hexavier sat on a stool looking at Zerachiel.
"No. He didn't. I was the one he favored. He didn't call me Zerachiel though. I was Mina to him." Zerachiel sighed.
"He what?" Hex looked at Zerachiel like she was crazy.
"Well I used to look like her when I was little." Zerachiel shrugged.
"So why do you go by Zerachiel now?" Hex was intrigued.
"One story at a time." Zerachiel yawned getting up. "I'll tell you later."

Ah, kids... pissing off the wrong people since who knows how long ago xD Those two're getting along pretty well so far. Why can't she read his mind? Well then. That explains that Hehe, of course not, just hit on a sensitive subject and it was easy to pick on him for it xD
