The moon shifted out from behind the dark clouds, flooding the desolate land with light, just as Jess came around from behind a massive gravestone. 'Oh no...' Jess thought as she noticed the moon peeking out from behind the clouds. Grimly, Jess drew her knives and waited.
She needn't wait long.
A cracking sound came from the ground infront of her and Jess leapt back as a rotted hand reached up, groping for her leg. Jess spun and sheared the wrist straight off the arm. Still the zombie came, first his arms, then his head, chest, waist and legs. Once out, he found himself face to face with a fireball that sent him flying backwards.
Bodies were coming out of the ground from all around, and everytime Jess killed one, another took its place. Already Jess was tiring. Jess realised almost instantly that soon she would tire completely and then she would be overwhelmed. She needed help.
Astra - May 30, 2006 10:46 AM (GMT)
Astra was running as fast as she could throught the plains, she didn't know what was chasing her and she didn't want to find out either. All she knew was that she had been walking about on her own when a huge something had burst out of the ground infront of her and tried to grab her, she had turned and run but she could hear its huge feet thundering after her, she stumbled as she heard it getting closer, she only had one chance. She stopped catching her breath, to the giant thing chasing her it would seem as though she had run out of breath, it raised a huge arm and brought it down, and that's when a pair of firey wings sprouted from Astra's back, she leaped backwards high into the air landing bahind the creature, its fist slammed into the ground kcicking up conciderable dust, Astra drew a dagger and leaped up again ramming it with all her might into the back of the creatures neck, it howled and threw her to the ground, her dagger remained in the creautres neck. In the half light Astra could not make out what it was, exept that it was the size of a house. She immediatly noticed that there were more zombies roaming about some getting hit by fireballs thrown from an assassin nearby her. Astra looked about, outnumbered, unarmed, and only fourtenn wasn't the best statistics for this situation, unless of course you have inisutive on your side. Most of the zombies were preocupied with the other girl blowing them up so Astra had to find a way to retrieve her dagger, unfirtunatly thought the creature had turned around and was looking straight at her. It aimed again and Astra leaped back from this assault casting her own fireball spell, multiple fireballs flew from nowhere over he shoulder pelting the beast in several places, while it was distracted Astra took the oppertunity to leap up and blast several fireballs into its face knocking it back, Astra landed on its shoulder, yanked her dagger out and stabbed it as hard as she could into the creatures brains, it howled again as Astra repeated the motion stabbing again and again ignoring the blood spurting out of it. The creauter reared and knocked her dagger aside, Astra held on to the creature with both hands as it tried to fling her off. She pulled off one of her gloves.
"Take this" she said and plunged her bare hand into the open wound.
Pain erupted in the creature's head, fire was balzing out of its ears, nose and eyeballs at the heat from Astra's hand. Its brain was getting fried. Eventually it stopped moving and its entire head went up in flames, it toppled backwards and Astra leaped off it cleaning the blood and brains off her hand and putting the glove back on, it still felt extremely squeltchy. Astra was now almost completely covered in the thing's blood and taking a bath would be impossible for her. She glanced about, now she only had to deal with the other zombies.
"Oh boy"

(O.O.C :- Sounds interesting XD)
Dark Descendant had been moving through the plains, The sun had finally set lallowing the moon to rise and the night to begin stretching throughout the plains like vines.
Her form moved swiftly, Stride a long and swift one, Her tattered cloak trailing out behind her shadow infested form, Her form glowing golden every few moments as the moon's light reflected off her form.
She arched a brow, A movement behind her structure reaching her ears. Her form whipping around, Gaze locking upon the darkness behind her form, But alas ther was nothing.
She raised a brow once more, Had she imagined this noise? No...There was definetly something there. Again, A sound triggered her senses, This time to her left side.
She brought a hand to the hilt of her blade, Swiftly unsheathing it, This sending out a loud ring across the area, Echoing throughout the planes. The moon reflected off the yakiba of her blade, it gleaming a beautiful white.
She whipped around once more, Kissaki of her blde out infront of her form, Her eyes remaining narrowed. Then she saw them, three, maybe four beings coming towards her form.
She stepped back their forms moving slowly out of the darkness that had concealed their forms, they seemed to be human, She stepped forwards but to her suprisement one had leaped forwards.
The moon hit the face of the being that had jumped from the shadows, her now being able to see the face of this creature. It was no human. It's face was torn and it had seemed that it's flesh had been eaten.
She flung her form backwards in bewilderment as the others moved from the darkness, blood coating their tattered clothing, blood dripping from their mouths, a look of blankness in their eyes.
She hesitated for a moment, Widened eyes upon their mutilated skin. Their skin torn and blood trickling from their limbs, But they moved never the less, Arms raised out infront of their forms.
As the moon's light shone upon them, She again noticed some differences towards them and human's, their faces were completely mutilated, maggots crawling over their cold mutilated faces.
She grimaced, The smell of a corspe that had been laying upon the sand on a summer's hot day infused in the air, The smell of the dead was hurrendous and she grimaced as it filled her nostrils.
She growled and moved her blade infront of her form as a thought came into her mind, These creatures weren't human, They weren't even alive, they were the undead and feasted upon the living.
She moved swiftly forwards towards the three zombies, A look of demise upon her eyes, Her gaze locked upon their forms, She leaps upwards, Form flowing fluently through the air.
Her left foot comes backwards as she leaps, as if to gain some sort of momentum. It then was released forwards into the head of one of the beings, Her foot lashing out fluently and harshly into their mutilated cranium.
Her foot had indeed impacted, The form of the zombie staggering backwards, frame cratering over slightly as the head of her foe snaps backwards in what seems to be an awkward and painful whiplash motion.
The frame of the zombie dropped backwards, body impacting the plain floor as their head had indeed snapped backwards, killing the mutilated being almost instantly.
She wasted no time, Moving her blade outwards she brought it back before lashing the kissaki of her daito outwards in a series of viscious and harsh sweeps towards the remaining zombies.
Her blade gleamed as the moon's rays reflected off it's now blood stained surface, the form's of the remaining beings indeed dropping backwards, Form's sliding down to the flooring in pieces.
A mist of blood sprays in all directions as her blade impales and slices through the limbs of the undead beings, their forms now upon the cold blood stained sand, Frames decapitated.
-------------------------------------
She turned her gaze to the east, Eyes widening in horror as her piercing gaze locks upon many more beings, All moving around, Some seeming to limp, But all their forms similiar in which their skin was mutilated and torn.
She began to move towards the undead beings, Her eyes narrowing towards them, Gaze transfixing about and fallen upon the forms of two girls, Seemingly human as their skin was not torn in any manner.
She began to charge towards the crowd on undead, Cloack billowing out behind her structure as she dashes towards the zombies, Sword raised infront of her charging form, Her speed seemingly in-human..

Concentrating on the zombies ahead of her, Jess failed to notice the two other girls who had entered the area. She launched yet more fireballs then decided on a plan.
It was very simple.
Jess ran, dodging behind tombstones and graves, watching in revolution as yet more zombies clawed their way out from their dark tombs. Eventually, Jess found herself next to a young, red-headed girl who seemed to be in good control of the fireballs spinning around her. 'Great night for being attacked isn't it?' Jess asked as she drew her shortbow and riddled a nearby figure with arrows.

Dark Descendant continued to dart towards the undead beings, Her eyes narrowing upon their forms. She thinks for a moment and stops running, Her palm coming to the ground.
She grins widely as she pushes her palm into the soil. Kneeling down slightly, Eyes upon the beings infront of her form, Their faces mutilated, and the smell of their forms making her nearly choke.
' RISE!! ' She says in her harsh, Cold tone, The ground beneath her beginning to shake violently, Soil beginning to flow into the ir as a shadow being comes from the ground.
She glances at the small lesser shadow, Nodding towards it, It merely dashes towards the zombies. Them being consumed in darkness and as the lesser shadow moves away the undead beings explode into nothingness.
The lesser shadow fades away as soon as these beings explode, It not being strong enough to be able to take out all of them. With this done she merely stands once more and darts at the remaining zombies.
She grins slightly sword coming outwards and upwards into the mandible of her foe, It's form going rigid as the sword impales their jaw, Killing them instantly. She pulls her blade back allowing the form to drop the the bloodstaine floor.

"Suppose so yeah" replied Astra "depends on what's attacking you though"
She oustreached her arm and a fireball flew along it and fired at the zombies hitting one in the face. One ran at Astra with a rusting sword but she ducked and landed a punch that went straight throught the bruts rotting chest, several maggots crawled out and up Astra's arm burning and falling off upon touching her bare skin. The zombie leared at her and Astra turned her face away at the smell.
"Man you need to have a bath more often" she said "llaberife!"
A fireball flew over Astra's shoulder hitting the zombie in the face and sendng flying into its comrades knocking them over. Astra wiped rotting flesh and maggots off her arm and looked back up.
"Exactly how many are there?" She said as several more popped out of the earth.
One emerged behidn Astra and grabbed her.
"semalf fo kcaolc"
Astra's body became surrounded by fire and the zombie leapet off her and got hit by another fireball.
"They're not getting any smarter" she said jumping back and firing more fireballs at oncoming zombies "fine, you've asked for it"
Fire burnt behind Astra's eyes and a pair of phoenix wings emerged from her back, she flew up into the air taking one zombe with her, flung him highr then as soon as he began to tumble back down span round kicking him across the air and landing in the middle of the mass of zombies, the flames around Astra increased and she began to look as though each part of her body was made from fire.
"DON'T SAY I DIDN'T WARN YOU" she said then dived as fast as she could scattering the zombies as she landed.
She leaped into the air spinning round and kicking one in the face twice before landing again, tripping it up and blast him backwards with another fireball, she ducked as one tried to attack her from behind, and rammed her foot out hitting it in the chest, she rose up punching the zombie in the face and then hitting it with another fireball. She leaned back dodging another assault then rammed bother fists throught its chest then pulling it apart in a firey blast.
"HAD ENOUGH?"

Jess shook her head. This girl was good with fire. A little too good for Jess. She wasn't a big fan of magic but used it when she needed to. Jess struck down several more zombies then dived out of the way of a massive, rusty battleaxe. Suddenly, the zombies stiffened, turning in unison to face the moon which was sliding behind a large, dark cloud. Then, as the moon completely dissappeared, they all fell to the ground and seemed to dissove into the dirt. Jesss spun in a circle, her eyes a little shocked from what she had just seen. She sheathed her swords and sat down with a sigh. 'Close call.' she said to the girl beside her.
Astra - June 1, 2006 01:07 PM (GMT)
Atsra began to calm down and looked about at the dusted zombies.
"What do you suppose all that was about?" She said canceling her cloak of flames and returning to normal "must be something to do with the moon I suppose"
She looked up at the cloud covering the moon then back down a the zombies' bodies.
"Well I'm not complaining" she said.
She retrieved her dagger and wiped it down on her glove staring about noticing another figure amongst the zombies.
"Exactly how many non zombies are there here?" She muttered "hard to tell who is or who's not when there are so many"
