Cuz I'm Bored: A Chaotic/Everything RP

Lati, who was figuring out that she could touch Rèva's hand, remembered that he'd asked for a name.

"Oh, um . . . what about . . . Ian?" she said quietly, choosing the first thing that came to mind.

Quote

I'm sorry, but for personal reasons, I don't really feel comfortable using that name 

I'll use it for now, though, but if you have any other ideas I would appreciate it, otherwise I'll just pick one myself

"Ian," it tested it out. No, not it. Living beings weren't "it"s. He tested it out. "Ian." It rolled off the tongue beautifully. Short, yet rich. Perfect. "Ian," he repeated once more. "It is a good name. Thank you, Lati."

It took only a quick edit to the profile feature, and it was done. Ian stood up from the ground and looked around at his companions. Gods. Mortals. Everything in between. They had fought the Cloud, and won. They had won. This group, they had done something Ian had never thought possible. Something incredible. Something that gave him hope.

For it meant they stood a chance. A chance they would need, to face what was coming. Ian took one last look at his friends, then turned back towards where the Cloud ranks had been. He had trusted them. He had giving them his undying loyalty. And they had been wrong. But now, he had a new family. A new people. He had seen beauty in the world, and knew it must be defended. And he would never look back.

Goodbye.

Woo!

A summary of the first 100 pages of Cuz' I'm Bored, taken from my memory, to the best of my capacities:

Spoiler

Part 1: Beginnings

Spoiler

Owen looks over the horizon, observing the red storm that has stationed itself in the distance. A native of Açila, he carries the legacy of his father.

A comet crashes near him, and out emerges Jidah Ka'Orum, a fallen immortal unwittingly crashed into the surface of this world. A rustle in the bushes leads to the emergence of Lati, an incorporeal being with a childlike personality and a mysterious past. As Owen, Jidah, and Lati converse, more unusual characters appear. The worldhopper Réva observes their exchange for a while before getting involved, and the cryptic SpiritOfWrath makes a brief appearance.

Eventually, the discussion is interrupted by the arrival of 209845, a Cloud antivirus sent by its superiors in the red storm (Cloud command) to delete viruses in this area. After quickly mistaking Lati for a virus and calling for reinforcements, 209845 finds itself intrigued by this group and decides to stick with them.

The Cloud fleet, called by 209845, arrives in the forest, and the group quickly moves away. Jidah proposes searching for civilization, and so the group makes its way towards the Dusklands. On their way, Rhyme and the Fox arrive, and 209845 marvels at the curiosity and contradictions of mortals. Jidah and the Fox coordinate a meeting with Dazh, the Sun and leader of the Açila pantheon, to see if she can recover her immortality.

Part 2: A Meeting with God

Spoiler

The group emerges into the Dusklands as the sun rises, and 209845 is shocked by the beauty it witnesses. The Fox calls Dazh, who brings the party into a vision. Dazh explains to Jidah that he, too, was cast down at one point, and she must discover first why she fell before reclaiming her divinity. 209845 is stunned by Dazh's power, and receives a communication from Cloud command warning it not to engage. But 209845 has begun to doubt. It has seen beauty in the world. And it doesn't want it to end.

209845 cuts off its communication with the Cloud, then engages Dazh. 209845 explains to the Sun the power and intentions of the Cloud, and pleads with the god to blind its connection with the Cloud that allows them to track it. Dazh complies, and soon after, the party emerges from the vision into a forest.

As the party reconvenes, 209845 watches the Cloud fleet descend on the spot in the horizon where they had been instants before.

Part 3: Into the Underground

Spoiler

The party is interrupted by the arrival of 17, a refugee from some sort of human experiments in a nearby town. 209845 worries that the Cloud will be searching for it, and pleads with the Fox until it reveals that there is a system of underground tunnels with an entrance nearby where they can hide. 209845 leads the party into the tunnels, and the Fox falls asleep due to the sunrise.

The tunnels are dimly illuminated by a bioluminescent moss, and as 209845 scrapes away some dirt from the walls, it realizes these are the remnants of an ancient civilization. The party hears howls from the distance, and they begin to race down the tunnels, searching for a safe room. The howls begin to surround the party, until Jidah stumbles into a dark intersection, and a shape emerges from the shadows.

The feline virus leaps at Jidah, but 209845 instinctively leaps in front of it, and zaps it. The virus dissolves from the zap, and after a quip, 209845 is tossed to the floor by more viruses. Other viruses begin to attack other parts of the group.

Lati discovers she can burn the viruses, and 17 discovers she can do something similar with Jidah's blade of light. As they fight on their respective fronts, 209845 suddenly bursts from underneath a pile of viruses, having activated "Instant Kill Mode". Its light turns red, and it becomes a killing machine, cognitive capacities sacrificed for pure deadly capacity. It tears through the viruses with ruthless efficiency in an epic fight scene.

Meanwhile, 17 encounters a pair of innagressive viruses and reaches out to touch them. One of the viruses leans in, and begins to purr, showing they are not completely evil.

209845 finishes tearing through the viruses, even as the final ones attempt to run and whimper for mercy. They receive none. The viruses 17 is bonding flee. 209845, still in Instant Kill Mode, struggles to accept the fight is over, and identifies Réva as its next target. It begins to approach Réva, but is suddenly slammed into by Jidah.

209845 snaps back to its senses, and it and Jidah get into a huge fight. Jidah runs off down one passage crying, and is followed by Lati and Sigismund, while the rest of the group follows the viruses that fled. 209845 feels crushed inside.

Part 4: What Comes Next

Spoiler

209845's group arrives at an old temple, and they go up into a living room. The room has a large window, and through it is observable an enormous chamber filled with thousands upon thousands of viruses. Floating in the middle of the chamber is the Rift, a tear in reality.

Jidah is reassured by Lati, and they set out to rejoin the main group. On their way, they encounter a mysterious man who introduces himself as 17's Maker and asks for them returned.

After making sure the others are comfortable, 209845 and Rhyme go down to search for the other group. Down in the temple, they run into Spirit, a mysterious man who claims to want to aid them in their quest. They hear voices in the distance, and run into the other group.

209845 questions the Maker, and the pair get into a fight. Transient hears the events from above the tunnels and descends to see what's going on.

209845 realizes the maker is too powerful to take on alone, so it somehow instinctively replicates the rhythms used by the viruses to communicate from before and sics them on the Maker. Spirit and Transient both begin fighting the viruses, and Sigismund sneaks off to the temple to fetch 17.

The Maker is still standing, Sigismund returns with 17, and 209845 freaks out knowing that the conflict was heard from above surface. Suddenly, the Primal Oxymoron appears out of nowhere, and 209845 quits its fight against the Maker, dismissing the viruses.

The Maker and 17 leave the tunnels, followed by Réva and Sigismund, while the rest hurry under 209845's guidance into the virus chamber. The clock is ticking, as the Cloud is on its way.

The party uses Jidah's force shield, hooked to the Rift, to traverse the chamber safely, but as they reach the wall, they begin to have their doubts, and the Cloud arrives.

Part 5: The Big Battle / the End of the Beginning

Spoiler

The Cloud sets up a barrier around the virus chamber. Elan arrives at the barrier and begins to test it, drawing the Cloud's attention. From the same direction, Calix begins to approach down the tunnel, drawing the attention of a Cloud sentinel. Wrath arrives to meet the party in the virus chamber.

The party notices Elan's arrival, and while 209845 is still recovering from its shutdown, they approach Elan and begin interacting. By the time 209845 rushes to warn them, it is too late. The Cloud has already arrived on the location.

Three Cloud antiviruses arrive at the tunnel, and 209845 pretends to be kidnapped, prompting one of the antiviruses to drop the barrier temporarily to rescue it. 209845 seizes the chance to slip through and break into its mind, and takes out the antiviruses, but not before they call for reinforcements.

Réva returns.

The rest of the Cloud army arrives at the other end of the tunnel, including an Ambassador, designed to combat gods. But 209845 has an army of its own. It uses its new connection to drop the barrier, and calls forth an army of viruses to fight the Cloud.

As the two forces clash in the tunnel, dozens of antiviruses activate Instant Kill Mode and 209845 begins to make its way towards the Ambassador, who has begun to reach out to Spirit, Wrath and Oxy. The rest of the party hunkers down near the mouth of the chamber, but are attacked by waves of sentinels. Traumatized, Lati hides in an ever deeper hole in the earth. As 209845 feels a new kind of emotion and pushes forth into the Ambassador's inner circle, Oxy, who was previously broken, somehow regains full sanity to protect his new friends and takes control of his Primal powers, blasting the Ambassador into oblivion (technically another time period, but same dif).

For a second, it seems as though the good guys are winning, but then the full force of the Cloud army stationed in the tunnels arrives. 209845 prepares for the worst, but instead of pressing forth, the Cloud forces simply pull back and line up at the end of the tunnel. A booming voice (that of a Cloud Megamind, who has taken control of all the Cloud agents in the tunnel) calls for a ceasefire on both sides as they negotiate with Oxy. In response, 209845 calls back the viruses, who line up at the mouth of the chamber.

For a while, the two forces face off in a dramatic climax. The center of the tunnel is a no-mans land, and standing alone in it are 209845 and Jidah, who teleported to check on it. It is an epic scene. Nothing dares break the negotiations. And then, all of a sudden, Wrath begins to walk.

Without caring for propriety, Wrath takes on a form of flame and begins to storm down the center of the tunnel, taunting the Cloud. The Megamind continues to usher threats, but seems to act more and more worried. 209845 realizes it is scared of Oxy's power, and encourages Wrath. Wrath and Oxy begin to affect the Cloud agents' connections with the Megamind, and in a desperate act, the Megamind begins to recall them, clearing the tunnel until all the Cloud agents are gone. The battle is won. Our heroes, have won.

In the aftermath, Réva helps Lati crawl out of her bubble. 209845 rejects the Cloud completely, and receives a new name from Lati.

Jidah felt a pang of a rather new emotion--- a vicious sort of emotion. 

She didn’t see this. She was focused on Lati.

But the shield was never needed. The counter attack never came. Instead, the Cloud armies vanished, one by one. Until there were none left. And the party stood alone in the tunnel, shadows in a field of silence. Gods among mortals.

…

The Cloud Megamind sighed as the last agents were recalled, then took a second to relax. This wasn’t over yet. There were still troops in the tunnels. They could regroup, launch a counter offensive-

A transmission came through. A message from Cloud command. The Megamind accepted it, bracing itself for wrath. It never came. Instead, the voice was eerily calm.

”Megamind. The Cloud is alarmed by your tackling of this situation. Your rash actions have cost us an immeasurable amount.”

The Megamind went cold. This wasn’t over yet not just Cloud command. It was the Mother. Agent 6. The leader of the entire Cloud operation on this world.

”Mother, please, with a second chance-“ it tried to plead.

”There will be no second chance. This behavior is unacceptable.” The Megamind felt a breeze of energy beginning to flow into its form, and tried to struggle. But it was too late. The grip of the Mother was too strong. “We are truly sorry, agent. We did not wish to end you like this. But an example must be made. The Cloud will retreat from these tunnels. Another solution will be found to these insurgents.”

The Megamind felt its essence slipping away by the instant. There was almost nothing left. With its final throes, it tried to scream, but nothing came out.

The form went limp, and then dissolved.

”Goodbye, agent.”

…

209845 stayed in the center of the tunnel for a while, still in shock. Eventually, after what seemed like an eternity, it turned around to see the viruses still awaiting its signal. With a wave and a pulse, it dismissed them, and they slowly returned to their chamber. Then, with a weary form and a heavy heart, it walked back to the others.

“Not exactly,” said 209845, arriving. “The idea was to hide from the Cloud. As you can see, that didn’t work. And the viruses are on our side now. I can control them.” But I don’t know how…

“And as for my name…” 209845 took a pause, then continued, sure. “I can bear it no longer. The Cloud…” it looked back at where the armies had been minutes before. “They are not my rulers anymore. I have felt emotion. I know not how, but I have. And I can never go back.”

209845 noted Lati’s pain, and something inside it softened. “Will you choose me a new name, Lati?”

209845 was still kneeling and waiting expectantly. Energy pulsed up and down its body, and it didn't try to hide it. It was thrilling, this feeling. It was amazing.

Speaking of what you said before about having more parts, I did kinda make it so that at the end of this storyline, we are fated for me to give all of you guys time travel and to go back and time and fight on the side of good until we are strong enough to try and save the world, then having 209845 become the next Oxy.
