Austyn didn't know what hit him. One moment, he was perfectly fine listening to North and West, and the next the world was turning dark. He tried to ask what was happening, but his mouth and vocal cords weren't working properly. A weak moan escapes his lips before he falls silent. He falls to the floor, limp and unmoving.
Churrio seemed to pop up from no where, teleporting behind the woman and flying full speed. She knocks her down and wrestled for the gun, stamping the fire flower out(if it was still going, ha, don't need to give Riley a heart attack with a wild fire). "You don't hurt with my friends and expect to get away with it." She caws. Her dark eyes glinted dangerously.

Azrail nods, holding one of Will's hand as they continued. He never stopped healing Will with his powers, but even then he was afraid that Will wouldn't make it. And it scares him. He didn't want other people to die. He's lost enough, why did life had to be so cruel and try to take more from him? When will it ever be sarisfied?! His grip tightens on Will's hand while he thought this, and he had to calm himself back down before he did something rash. As his feelings of anger and sadness melted away, he was left with... a hollow feeling, one that made him feel like something had sucked everything out of him, one that made him feel, like at any moment, he could break and he would find himself scrambling to piece himself back together so he could continue to be there for others.

(I move around a lot. Maybe if the military moves my parent(s) over to your place we can meet each other! Rebuilding friendships - yup, had to do that before. Meeting people is scawy. Being with folk I already know is bestter.)

North catches Austyn quickly, eyes glowing angrily. She turned to look at the woman, who seemed pleased. She and West where the most powerful magic beings (oh and East and South too ^^) so messing with them would be like wishing for death. West came up beside North as she placed Austyn down.
"He doesn't have much time left," North hissed in ancient tongue, putting a hand on his forehead, "South is the only one who learned healing abilities, you know that all too well."
"No go there. Only death. No trust," West growled, "Better go to healing boy. Faster and safer."
"Fine. I'll travel by water and bring him there. You know what to do, I'll find the pillars without you and meet you there," She picked up Austyn and raced towards the water.
Luckily the woman was distracted, squirming under Churrio as she tried to shoot her too, eventually failing and losing the gun. Zio was just chilling, seeming perfectly chill with everything that was going on.

Will walked on, ignoring the way his fingers felt like they where stabbed by isicles. He felt sad, sorrowful, like he was drowning in emotions. His thoughts whispered at him, telling him how bad everything would go, how he should give up. It felt like someone was stabbing him, twists the blade deeper into his hurt everytime he tried to pull it out. He hated the feeling, so that's why he thought about suicide, a lot. There was so much pain and it seemed pointless, what was the point in trying? He was yanked out his feelings as Azrail squeezed his hand and he pushed his thoughts away, ignoring his problems. 'Are you okay? It must be hard, all this' He signed, not exactly sure what he was referring to, there was so much to take in, 'It'll all be okay...' He didn't know why but he signed that, not even sure if that was true.

(It bc? I can wish but it'll never happen. I wish though! I may try to visit you when I get older! Maybe... ^w^! I meet people all the time and I prefer it then dealing with my friend problem. "At any moment, he could break and he would find himself scrambling to piece himself back together so he could continue to be there for others." <- Wait, are we talking about me here xD, cause that sounds like me and a friend I know, except the fact I can't fix myself xD)

Churrio was glad she had got the gun, glancing warily at Cracker to make sure he didn't try to attack her as she aimed the gun at the woman. She was debating on whether or not to shoot the woman, knowing she'd feel bad about taking a life. Churrio is kind of annoyed that Zio is not doing anything, but realized that she was doing pretty well, and it was better that they were not doing anything than attacking Churrio and West.

Azrail nods with a faint attempt at a smile. He doesn't know how to respond, so he doesn't for a while. 'If it'll all be ok, I'm ok. Life is going to be hard, but what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right? And when the going gets tough, the tough get going. Whether we think we can or we think we can't, either way we are right.' He shakes his fingers out. 'Mind over matter, right?' He was going to be there for Will no matter what happened.

(No, not intentional talking about you. I think a few people can feel that way too. *glanced towards a friend* And I'm not sure how to help, if I can help, and if I should I try to help...)

Cracker was staring in shock at the 'crow' person, "Cr-row," He stuttered taking a step back, "Crow-wley?"
North finally hit the water, melting into it as she and Austyn became on with the water. She appeared back in Ritkle, though she looked a little tired. She pulled Austyn and herself out of the water, racing to where Rin and Tippy should be. They where playing cards. She ran over to them, placing Austyn in front of them.
"Woah! Hey their North! Ain't that talky child? Are they supposed to bleed like that," Rin asked placing a hand on Austyn and healing him, "Is he dead?"
"Come on, shoot me! An innocent person," The woman said with a laugh poking the gun, "You may kill this vessel but not me!"

Will didn't mind the silence, dwelling in it for a bit. It was calming and nice, the only sound he could hear was the chirp of birds. He listened to what Azrail 'said', nodding a bit. He looked a bit doubtful, but he was truly glade Azrail was with him.
"Hello there? I heard the screams of pain from your soul. My my, what a delicious taste of agony and pain," A slow and deep voice whispered, making Will jump in surprise.
There was a man, if it could be considered human. It looked a bit like a human. It had skin that looked like goo, swirling in different colors, mostly blue, purple, red and black. It had a mask over it's face, a blank white mask that only had two eye holes in it. Will felt strangely sad, like this thing was drawing out his sad memories and causing them to resurface.

(XD, everyone does maybe! I just am a kiwi and a kiwi I am. I can help or hurt, heal or break!)

(A simple imagining of would happen if their powers got mixed up -
Austyn(now has Azrails ability to heal): *to person he likes* Hm, it seems here that there is only one way to cure this *kisses person and gets a great girl/boyfriend*
Riley(who already has learned at least 7 languages and got Austyns power of being able to understand any language): *listens to people talking in a language he hasnt learned yet* Sweet! Now I get to learn this language faster. *has absolutely no problem*
Azrail(has Rileys ability of fire): *begins freaking out* I DONT WANT TO HURT PEOPLE! *hides away, never to see the light of day again to make sure he cant harm anyone ever*)

"Raven." Churrio automatically corrects, having done it for quite a while since most people confused her with the small birds. And no, I wont kill an innocent person. Thinking about killing this vessel of yours, but I wont. Hm I should go about figuring out how to free this one from your grasp.

Azrail was slightly concerned when Will jumped. He followed Wills gaze, trying to find what had scared him. What is it? He asks before he could see the man... thing. He glares at it. 'You leave my friend alone.' He says. Being an expert of shoving his feelings aside, Azrail wasn't being effected yet. It would take a while before it took a toll. He puts himself between Will and the creature as if that would somehow help and tries to keep the group going. Hopefully the creature would give up and leave them be.

(XD, is that what you think about? Sounds chaotically amazing! I image what would be the perfect ships for all my characters only using my ocs'! Will x Ace is a big one xD, both my gay boys, one fire, one ice!)

"No-o... crows," Cracker yelped turning and running away as a crow landed on the ground, a plain-o-normal crow.
There was a lot of crows that landed on the ground and Cracker was gone now, terrified of crows. It was an odd fear but a rational one.
"Crowley is here, have fun with them," The woman said with a crooked grin, being the totally evil person she was.

The man tilts their head, looking a bit confused.
"What? Scared... no... worried," The thing hissed as Will cowered away, trembling a bit, "I taste pain. Pain... so much. Which is it? The one with the curse? No... you have a charm, I can taste it."
Will flinched at the word charm, glancing down at his ankle, "Leave us alone," He grumbled as the thing appeared behind him, making him jump.
"Shhh, no need to be scared, I'm only here to reveal what is hidden," The thing said disappearing as Will turned around and tried to punch it.

(Maybe... It is and I love it! xD I don't know... shipping my characters with my characters sounds chaotic and difficult. And half my characters hate each other - Riley and Austyn as an example.)

Churrio huffs, taking the woman in her talons and flying up, almost tossed off balance with her weight. She caws to West and Zio, wanting to move out. First, she would toss the woman in the water, hope she drowns.

Azrail decides he does not like the guy. He has had not good experiences with people that can randomly jump from place to place. Charms and curses flew over his head, he didn't understand them. What was hidden? If it was hidden, it was probably for a reason, so Azrail didn't want it to be revealed.

(I can ship who I please *evil laugh*... I am evil and send my characters through chaotic adventures! Yay? Well I shall ship them all xD)

The woman looks surprised, yelping. She struggled.
"Let me go," She commented glancing at Zio for a second as if he might save her, not.
Zio still waited, going and climbing a tree as he watched. West growled, backing up, not looking too pleased at what was happening.

The thing appeared behind Will again, putting a hand on his head, "Where is it?"
Will hissed, suddenly feeling both extremely depressed and very tired. He turned around before collapsing in the thing's arms, only half away of what was going on now.
"Hm, weak mind," The thing whispered sitting down with Will on their lap, "Hm, where is it?"

(*joins in evil laugh* As an author, I am unstoppable. Chaotic adventures? Let's go for it! Tragic backstories? Psshh, too easy. Tricky plots and origional ideas? ...*cricket chirps*...)

"Let you go? That can be arranged." Churrio says, flying high over the water and letting the woman go. Churrio doesn't look back as she heads to Zio and West. "So, I'm guessing we have to leave? Anyone wanna teleport with me? Easy, fast, quick, and I can go anywhere I've been before!" She offers them, landing a moment to catch her breath and preen.

Azrail glares at and takes Will away from the guy, scooting backwards, away from the guy, holding Will protectively. He didn't want the... thing to have Will or whatever it was looking for. He begins to constantly heal Will, not wanting to stop in case the ice would spread further, more than just his fingers. 'Go away. We don't want you.' He says, to the thing.

(XD, oh my pineapples. I can do all the above things xD! I am master auther. Also, what is a tricky plot *confused face*... is it a plot... that's tricky xD or can do tricks?)

The woman screamed as she was let go, going silent as she hit the water. She struggled for a bit before finally sinking under the water. West nodded, glancing at where the woman had last been. Zio was still chilling, she nodded as well though. North was still wondering if Austyn was dead or not, in Ritkle.

Will mumbled in his sleep about how depressing his life was. The thing suddenly smiled, appearing next to Azrail and grabbing Will's arm, lifting it up. They zoned in on an old leather bracelet, the stone on it glowing. They pulled it off with a snap, crushing the stone.
"Illusion charm," The thing hissed as Will started to change.
He looked exactly the same, but this time had had scars all over his body, worse then even Zio and Blackout. They where everywhere any one could see, even his face.
"Hm, fathers are indeed the worst," The thing hummed.
