Closed Roleplay with Brudikai222

While passing through the city, one begins to hear some kind of murmuring from inside the alleyways. They grow and fade, like breaths, before stopping some minutes in. The sound of a door creaking open echoes out to the rest of the populous, but no exit can be seen. Still, footsteps of at least five people, leaving the area, begin to be heard.

I will be using these two characters as well as a mystery one to appear later.

(I'll be using two characters as well Im sure you probably know Axel but if not'll link him and second mira)

Axel and Mira Sit at a table in the city. "Mira your not gunna eat your pizza?" Axel said pointing at it.

"Dad I dont eat, I.... I dont have a mouth remember." Mira said pushing it towards Axel.

"Oh yeah sorry about that... guess I spent 7 extra dollars for nothing." Axel said eating Mira's slice.

(At this point, the characters have the opportunity to investigate the previously-mentioned situation in the alleyway which I suppose is next to the table they're sitting at.)

"hey dont you hear something?" Mira asked getting up from the table.

"Yeah wanna go check it out?" Axel said the slice hanging from his mouth.

"Why do you think I said "Do you here that?" Mira walking to the source of the sound

"Tch for someone who was created 3 years ago you hit your "teenage smart mouth stage super early." Axel followed.

No one could be seen but the footsteps appeared to be getting closer to them from the alleyway.

Mira stopped in front of the Alley. "Its coming from this way."

"Dark alley way? Now all we need is some guys wearing leather jackets with overly greased up hair to come surround us while snapping their fingers." Axel said jokingly.

"Be serious dad innocent people could be hurt." Mira said.

The clanging of metal sounded, growing louder with multiple people. It sounded like it was getting higher... like climbing: the rooftops.

Both Axel and Mira looked up backing away a bit. "Wanna bet it's one of the fat man's robots?" Axel said still looking upwards.

"I'm wouldn't be surprised." Mira replied. " Lets wait awhile.. He would have made an "explosive" entrance by now.."

Figures were climbing up the side of the building to the roof. Each was holding some kind of square of metal. They held their artifacts in such a way to reflect the light: it was blinding, perhaps to distract as the group slowly began dispersing. They did not appear to notice the two onlookers.

"They dont look like Eggman's robots do they?" Axel turned to Mira.

"My data says their not of Eggman's design." mira replied taking his hand way from his eye.

" Well lets say hi then." Axel jump onto roof without getting a response from mira.

"W-wait dad!! WE DONT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE!!!" He followed.

Each was masked, completely in green. Only one turned to face Axel and Mira.

"Yo I'm Axel this is my son Mira.... don't get the wrong idea he was created when some scientist stole blood from me, and you are?." Axel saluted.

Mira just face palmed."Forgive him he's a goof ball when he had 5 gallons of ice cream. As he said My name is Mira genetically modified off the coast of Apotos. Hes Axel leader of a Freedom Fighter Guild.

The figures began raising their shining squares at the two, the light from them growing brighter. Someone grabbed Axel from behind, pulling him back from the building.

(Will be back in a bit)

( Ok) Axel struggles trying to get free. "WHAT THE HECK!?!

A black-furred hand grabbed his arm as they descended to the ground. "Easy, big boy," A feminine English accent warned as they slowly moved away from the masked walkers.

A black-furred hand grabbed his arm as they descended to the ground. "Easy, big boy," A feminine English accent warned as they slowly moved away from the masked walkers.

"FATHER!!" Mira runs after them.

"Not so loud, if you don't mind," The black-furred figure warned as they got to the street-level.

" Let him go!!" Mira shouted clenching his fist.

"Why? Jealous?" The assailant released Axel, stepping back a bit. She was a black cat with large wild red hair, wearing very thick black shades that made her eyes almost completely unnoticeable.

"I'm not.... what... why I would be? I just find it weird that some shadow figure kidnapping a hedgehog." Mira said fixing his jacket.

"Who are you anyway." Axel said back away from the black cat.

"A little jealous myself," She replied, looking back at the rooftop walkers. "Been tracking those for a while and you just stumble upon them..." She looked back at them. "I probably just saved your life from a world of blindness and brainwashing... well WE did: not that I'm mad of course. There you were, tearing meal and then suddenly roof people."

"Who and what are those roof people?" Axel asked.

"I'm guessing you've nev'r heard of a 'Mocklfee'? Giant gorillas with more arms than a SPI'da'?  Those little pawns are one's lonely servants... or meals."

"wha.... wha..... what? The only mixed matched creature ik of is Chimera and he's a god.... what kind of fairy dust you snorting lady?" Axel said turning his head to the side like a confused puppy.

Mira scratched his head. "I must admit those types of creatures are strange to me aswell..."

"Like have no mouth?" She crouched a bit, looking over Mira. "My word, you really DON'T have a mouth. How does that factor into ya' vocals, hm?"

"Im genticly made from his cells I guess something went wrong and it did't give me a mouth. I cant explain how I'm still able to talk normally." Mira replied putting a hand on his chin.

"Ah, well at least you can still talk. I've got some brainwashed sheep to track so unless you feel like following..."

"We got nothing better to do so yeah we'll join." Axel said tightening his scarf and fixing his goggles.

"Yeah I better tag along to make sure Axel doesn't get in any trouble." Mira said walking up beside his father.

"Awful trusting of someone you just met," She teased before walking into the alleyway.

"I dont hate people I meet only if they stab me in the back." Axel said following.

"I dont trust you at all, but Axel has a gift for picking friends and enemies."

"I see; well I don't know where that will end up for us, but while it might not sound believable, I haven't a clue why I shouldn't be trustworthy," She began moving various objects from the floor: trashcans, boxes, crates.

"since they where on the roof last time lets check on the highest point of the city and look from there." Axel pointed to a sky scraper.

"They're only a few buildings down," She replied. "We'll catch them in a second. They never run.  It'd be nice to find one of their nests before it vanishes though."

"Nests? so they're vermin now...." Mira asked.

"Or are they aliens bent on enslaving Mobius." Axel said with a tone of disbelief.

"And would an alien invasion really strike you as incredibly strange? 'Thought you mobian people dealt with that a lot," The feline began tearing a ventilation box off of a wall.

Axel climbs onto a roof. " Good then lets get a closer look at what these things do." He puts his scarf of his mouth to act like a ninja.

Mira follows facepalming.

"Got any eye protection?" The feline asked while still searching below before looking up at them.

"These goggles" Axel points to him on his forehead.

"Why do we need eye protection?" Mira looked at the nearest shop.

"The mirrors they're holding," She noted while climbing up to them. "You don't want to get exposed to that."

"Is that what they were pointing at us when you sorta like hedgehog napped me?" Axel asked.

"Yep, and if you kept staring for long enough, either your memory of it would have been wiped, or they might have sent a subconscious message into your brain to become one of them at one point. They might have already," She tapped her thick shades before walking toward the cult. "Make sure not to get seen by them if you can. Once we find where they get to, you can feel free to take them to some hospital or whatever."

"I hate hospitals so maybe Mahdi can study them...." Axel turned to Mira.

"I dont think so as I said before they can be dangerous even she says they are!" Mira said sounded worried.

"Calm down I bet they can be nice they gotta have a reason to mind controlling people." Axel replied.

"I mentioned they're brainwashed right? Yes, yes I did," The feline continued toward the group. They all jumped from rooftop to rooftop but still walked slowly. This continued as the cult neared a small shop.

Axel jumped from roof to roof stoping on the building to the left of the shop. and lays down so they dont see him.

Slowly the cult began walking and climbing through some kind of chimney in the shop.\

Axel sits up as Mira joins him. "well well well something looks secretive."

"Let's try the front door," The feline suggested.

"Ninjas dont take the front door.." Axel flips off the building and opens the window and crawls through."

"All that sugar should ware off in 10 minutes." Mira slid down the roof and followed his father through window.

"Y-..." The feline growled.

Having stepped through the window first, Axel's foot was now pressing against some kind of fertilizer bag which slipped and fell to the floor, nearly knocking over the rest of the shelf. The clerk at the desk froze before yelling "What are you doing?! Th-there's a door!"

"uhhh ninjas dont use the front door... hehe.... i'll clean up...." Axel said getting up brushing off the fertilizer.

"You should have used the door..." Mira said clmibing from the window.

" YOUR USING THE WINDOW RIGHT NOW!!!!" Axel shouted.

"Nin- are you here to rob me?" The employee asked, relaxing just slightly.

"No no we're not we seem some shady figures crawl into the chimney and only wanted to investigate." Mira replied.

Axel swept up the fertilizer. "why not tell the employee our blood type while your at it..."

"What ar-"

The door was knocked open as the feline walked through. She glanced at the two before turning to the employee. "Alright boys, might want to close your eyes."

Axel closes his eyes but Mira keeps his open.

The employee nervously looked between the three of them as the feline whipped off her shades, a blinding yellow light surging through the entire room, hypnotic waves beginning to immediately erase recent memories.

"can I open my eyes now?" Axel asked.

"Wait..." The feline put the shades back on. "Now you can."

axel put the broom down. "What did you do?"

"Your friend didn't close his eyes," She mentioned. She walked over to the employee. "Corner. Sleep. Go." The employee walked off to the corner and laid down.

Mira rubbed his eyes. "ow...."

"So you mind controlled that employee? ARE YOU ONE OF THOSE THINGS?" Axel sat in the nearest chair his voice quivering in excitement.

"You don't see me holding a mirror, do you?" She looked over to Axel before looking to Mira. "Memory alright? Didn't forget anything, did you?"

"Nope" They spoke in unison.

"...Hm," She stepped over the front desk and walked into the back room.

"Dude I think the sugar is finally wearing off.." Axel said taking his scarf away from his mouth.

"Thats good now cmon." He walked into the back room Axel followed.

(gotta brb)

The hall led to a restroom, a bedroom, and a stockroom. The feline went directly into the stockroom where the instant scent of spice-like dirts filled the air: piles and bags everywhere with various kinds of plants in pots.

(Alright)

"Whoa what is this place?" Axel said looking around.

"Looking for a bunch of murmuring idiots," The feline reminded. "Or mirrors I suppose."

Mira's left eye glowed red sensing for heat signatures.

Axel just threw boxes around looking. "Nothing here."

Heat could be sensed... particularly around the feline herself, but the only other trace was near some kind of furnace... but the furnace wasn't on.

Mira and Axel still searched in different spots.

Nothing else seemed to show importance, though the dirt did begin to stifle the air a bit. "Let's be quick," The feline suggested. "I doubt that's the only employee."

"I forgot what we were looking for then started eating these snake cakes I found... wait now I remember those things..."

Mira put a box over Axel's head and sighed.

"Snake cakes?" The feline looked over at Axel.

"He meant snack cakes..." Mira replied.

"Any sign of those two things yet?" Axel asked.

"What two things?" The feline asked while approaching the furnace.

"The roof poeple isnt that what we're after or are we here to do grocery shopping?" Axel said taking the box from his head.

"It is, but there were more than just two... I'm going to check out the top of this," She started toward the exit.

Axel sat near the ferance. "Wonder how the rest are doing back home?"

"They usually take breaks when your not around." Mira replied sitting beside him.

Some seconds later as the feline departed, the furnace began to heat up, a green light forming inside.

Both Mira and Axel back away from it. "Mira I don't think fire is supposed to turn green, Quickly go get the cat who still didn't tell us her name...... did we tell her our name? DOESN'T MATTER, just go!!"

Mira nodded and ran in the direction the cat lady ran.

The furnace's flame grew brighter and wider, slowly opening its door as the mesmerizing green light spread. The feline hadn't gotten far--having just climbed to the top of the store roof, going toward the chimney

Mira climbed up the roof. " Yo... the Furnace is glowing green Axel... Axel could be in danger!!"

The black cat didn't even take time to respond as she rushed back into the store. The light kept growing, a commanding wave pulsing around Axel from withing the furnace light.

Axel just stared at it. "What the hell is that?!"

The pulsing hypnosis continued from the light, repeatedly sending strange messages into Axel's mind as two furred hands moved in front of his pupils from behind, pulling him out from the room.

Axel offered no resistance like he wasn't mentally there.

The feline dragged Axel outdoors while yelling to Mira "Get the clerk out of here!"

Mira nodded and grabbed the clerk following them out.

The feline ducked behind another building, looking to make sure Mira followed.

Mira kept up. "Hows my dad?"

"Your wha-" A ringing sounded from the store as a green light blasted outward before slowly subsiding.

Mira ducked." What.... what was that all about?!?!"

"A failsafe," The feline answered. "He found out we were snooping, as usual" she sighed.

"Who found out? Mira said smacking Axel to wake up.

"After that do you actually want to know?"

"I dont know anymore of course Axel is gunna want to know...." Mira said as Axel finally woke up.

"Whats going on?" Axel said rubbing his face from all the slapping.

"You got found out," The feline answered. She looked to Mira. "Best keep 'n eye on this one. He might vanish in the middle of the night."

Mira stayed silent.

"How long have i been out?" Axel asked.

"Only a minute or so," She shrugged before pulling his eyelids open a bit wider, looking over his eyes.

His Right eye was purple when his left one was red. "You said "he found out", who is "he?"

"... You know, at this point I'm not ev'n sure if it matters," She stood up. "Emlorde. That's his name."

"He sounds like a failed pop star." Axel sat up.

" So what now we still go after the roof people or is there a super secret organization bent on the destruction on this city and can only be defeated by the power of team work and there boss is a freaky lizard monster from a distant planet." Mira put in.

"... I... followed half of that question," The feline replied in confusion.

"Thought you would." Mira replied. "So whats the plan now?

"I've got to make a call. You two should probably get as far away from this as you can."

"Whatever" Axel got up and walked away.

Mira followed. "Didn't it come across you that this whole ordeal was weirder than usual?"

"Well fighting the Eggman's robots, traveling through time, and fighting an evil version of yourself, makes today seem like a dark at the park. well besides fighting Eggman bots..." Axel replied.

"I don't know what an Eggman is but it sounds like it goes well with pepper and toast," She began tapping on a hand-held device. "Well if you're still coming with, then I'm going to see what's left of that building. Maybe our clerk friend here can give us some answers."

"Eggman is a constant villain in our lives hes literally egg shaped evil genius. He took over My island for like.... 30 years now?" Axel turned to Mira

Mira nodded." Lets keep the backstory out for a while. Is the clerk even awake?"

"Backstory? ... U-uh " She looked over at the clerk. "Oh right: told her to get to sleep..."

Axel looked at the building. " Ima check it out one last time.."

Mira looked at him. " You where mentally absent for the past 2 minutes in there, what would you gain by going back?"

"Sense of adventure.." Axel replied.

"Mental instability doesn't really trump sense of adventure," The feline started shaking the clerk till they woke up, at which point they jerked backward.

Axel ran off into the building.

"Well look whos awake..." Mira said sitting down.

At this point, the building appeared to have vanished.

"AWW WHAT!?!? THE BUILDING HAS TELEPORTATION POWERS?!" Axel shouted when all he saw was the foundation of the shop.

The feline went around their current building. "Oh... okay I guess he took it with 'im. Um..." She walked over, looking back at Mira for a moment saying "Could ya' kindly see what the clerky has to say, Lips?"

"yeah yeah." he turned to the clerk. "First off who are you then I wanna know what was in that building."

"I just run the desk," The employee held up her arms defensively. "What happened?"

The feline walked over next to Axel. "You feelin' fine?"

"Yeah why wouldnt't I?" Axel turned to the feline.

"Well you were in a room filled with a hypnotic light so..." She walked toward the remains of the building. "Hm... I don't see a trace... we COULD go back to that alley..."

"Alrighty then..." Axel shrugged.

The feline turned back to Mira and the clerk as a blue light began forming in front of them.

"Whats going on now?" Mira complained.

Axel just watched.

A dark grey cat, male, walked through some kind of portal. He wore shades like the feline. "So you foun- oh, hello," He greeted to the others.

Axel started in awe. while Mira stumbled back and fell on his butt. "Wha?!?!"

"... What?" The male cat looked around. "... Oh me I gather?"

They stayed silent with a shocked look on their faces.

"Hey, guys, c'mon," The feline said, snapping her fingers in front of them. (Just wanted to say THANK YOU, for not having your characters be uber-powerful, completely unaffected by things and having unexplained powers. I'm in another roleplay at the moment that's causing... issues and I'm just glad I don't have to deal with those issues here too.)

(God modding dude? sees those far too many..) "WHOS THIS DUDE?!?!" Axel said with a tone of disbelief.

Mira still looked shocked.

(Kind of. To me it seemed more like they created a massively overcomplicated power and such that they can't explain... yeah it's god-modding.)  "... My cousin," The feline informed.

"Pleasure," The male cat offered a handshake to Axel since he was the only one showing signs of consciousness.

Axel shook the male cat's hand. "Nice to.. m-meet you... sorry our brains are sorta fried cuz you appeared out of a wormhole thingy..."

The male cat nodded. "I guess I should have checked first about this place. I'm Halem, and you met Saber already."

"Im Axel and this is My "son" Mira.." He pointed to Mira still broken. Axel punched him and he woke up.

"IM UP!!!" Mira snapped out of it.

"Son?" Halem questioned.

"Guys, the clerk's gone," The feline now known as "Saber" informed from behind them.

"He was created from my blood. i haven't..... done..." Axel buried his face in his hands.

Mira: was the only one who heard Saber. "What!?!"

"She's gone," She repeated.

"She couldn't have gone far, Father um.... Halem we need to find the clerk." Mira get up and dusted himself off.

"Um... okay... who is the clerk?" Halem glanced about.

"... Hm..." Saber dashed off back toward the alley. "Spread out!"

Axel and Mira walked off in different directions.

Off toward Mira's area: the rooftops, once again.

Mira looks up. "wha?"

The clerk was heading toward another chimney.

Mira climbed up the building quietly.

The clerk could see Mira coming, holding up her hand as if holding something in it, but nothing was there. She continued walking however, not speaking. She began climbing into the chimney, the sound of something burning below easily heard.

"Is she planning on killing herself?!?!" Mira ran to the chimney.

The clerk began falling through the chimney.

Mira jump up and tried to grab the Clerk's leg. "Crap!! I need help............... cant let go to turn on comunicator..."

The clerk swayed, knocking against the side of the chimney. She slowly looked up at Mira, pulling at him, either to let go or to make him come down with her. Halem could be seen a few blocks away in the distance, looking about, but he did not notice Mira at the moment.

"H-HALEM I found the clerk I dont know how long I can hold her!!!" Mira shouted trying to get Halem's Attention.

The cat male's jerky had-motions indicated that he heard the mouthless offspring, but it took him a few seconds to realize where he was being called from. Upon noticing Mira, Halem rushed forward at a cautious sprint as not to run into the buildings. The clerk kept pulling, even trying to claw at Mira with her fingernails.

Mira leaned back reinforcing his feet against the bricks of the chimney. "J- JUST GIVE UP LADY!! GEEZ!!"

Halem could be heard climbing up the building. He ran over to them once up, going over to the side, reaching for the clerk, who tried to move her hand away.

Mira continued to pull.

The two managed to get the clerk out of the chimney, though she began weakly struggling.

"We did it..." Mira said breathing a sigh. " should we tie her up or something?"

Halem gave the clerk a swift swat on the back of her head, knocking her out. "Unfortunately if she stays awake, she may try to suffocate herself. Was she under Saber's spell before?"

"Yeah I think she used some eye mind control thing..." Mira replied.

"... Well that's bad, because that means Emlorde's got a stronger hold on... these people."

"That failed pop star as Axel puts it.." Mira said getting up.

"Failed... Oh... Oh-hoh-" He chuckled, a wagging finger pointing to Mira. "That's good," He regrew his composition and began carrying the clerk down. "Where did this all start for your lot anyway?"

"We heard noises.. at first I waited to see what it was kinda cool then everything spiraled out of control when we met Saber." Mira answered.

"Yeah, but what area exactly?"

"in that alley over there." Mira pointed to it.

"Hm... Could you hold her for a minute?" He laid the clerk down gently before leaping down toward the alley.

Meanwhile on Axel's side he was just laying on the ground. "Haven't had anything to eat in 5 hours.... or at-least I think it's been 5 hours...."

"Weren't you eating a pizza when I found you two?" Saber asked while walking over.

"yeah but I think it dropped out my mouth somewhere..." Axel said depressingly.

"Guess that happens when you see people walking on rooftops."

"Yeah.." Axel got up.

Mira and Halem had yet to meet up. Initially, Saber did not pay mind to this, but after some time, she was becoming more concerned. "You're not feeling like walking into chimneys like a zombie, right?"

"No... not chimney's to the nearest food stand yes..." Axel replied.

"Hm... well if he left a trace on you, we might be able to use that to track where to go... Here, let me see your eyes," She stepped closer.

"If your worried about the purple iris in my eye that was from an "Accident."

"I wasn't but looks pretty either way," She reached over to pull his eyes open a bit more.

Something did look weird in his eyes.

"You're not getting triggered... probably because he knows you're near us... We need Halem for this. He might be able to override the influence."

"eeh ok let me just contact Mira.." He pressed buttons on his communicator.

"... But we need Halem."

"We can conact him to find Halem in case you had not noticed Mira has a computer chip where his brain is, he might know where Halem is...." Axel explained.
