Poisoned Roses

[Calista Leila Rosa]

(Location: School Courtyard, Tag: Kazuma and Calista, then Seth)

Calista sighed to herself. Another night of patrols....She hated patrols. We all know how well the last one went....ugh. At least there were no pantless guys running around right now or anyone really... The dark haired beauty pulled her jacket closer to her, when the wind suddenly picked up. It was an eerie night...she didn't know why. It just was. She hadn't seen Seth for a while either. There was no moon tonight, and the only light in the courtyard was the dim glow from the lamp posts. Cali didn't mind, in fact, she preferred it this way. Afterall...her powers did nothing in the light. She needed shadows to draw from. She got the feeling someone was watching her....

"Who's there?!" Cali whipped around only to see the wind rustling the branches. You're getting paranoid Cali.... she thought. Maybe she should get some sleep...She wondered what Seth was doing....maybe he was with that crush of his....she told herself that she shouldn't worry. That Seth would always love her...but the idea still got to her sometimes.

l yard in his miasma form. He was looking for some more “fun” as he called it. Some people to take out his rage out on. He wanted to kill everyone in the school. Though, he was to weak. It was only him. He was powerful and even in his insane state of mind he was not foolish. He knew he couldn’t take on a entire school. No, he wanted some help from some the students. He saw then saw a young girl. She was beautiful and the perfect body. He smiled. Kazuma was below attacking a girl not at all. He had attack children…but, that’s another story. Kazuma smiled as he floated following her every step. She was going to his for sure. He wanted her and when he wanted something….he was going to get it. Her skin was flawless. She was tempting him….he wanted to brutalize her….hear scream like…he did when his mother brutalized him.


He then turned into a human and started walking to by the bushes. He peeked the branches. She heard it him. He smiled. Stupid girl. This was good. Very good. He smiled. Kazuma stepped out and smiled. “Hello Ms.! I am scared I am lost! I need your help! Someone….is following…me. He wants to kill me! PLEASE HELP ME! I am…scared.” Kazuma said sounding like a frantic little boy. Of course Kazuma was trying to lure her into a trap. He smiled handsomely look at her. She was perfect. He could of barely wait.. He was going to take her for sure.

[Calista Leila Rosa]

Calista was just about to move to another along when suddenly she heard a little boy. A scared little boy calling her. What was a little boy doing out here? He sounded too young to be a 7th grader....but....Calista still approached, her hands glowing black. She wouldn't attack a child, no way. But something was off about this.

"Who are you?" She called as she approached the source of the voice slowly. She was ready to fight if she needed to. How could he be lost? This island was off limits to anyone who wasn't a student or a government agent...Then there was a little boy with blonde hair. What? It really was a little boy? Or maybe one of those age manipulators decided to have some fun again....the little boy somehow looked familiar though....

"What are you doing here?"

[miasma]

Kazuma smiled inside. She was soo stupid she didn’t know what she was messing with. Kazuma kept his façade. “I- I- I was with my Daddy visiting my sister…. She stays here…. And something black attacked…. It killed….her….It wants to eat me….help …me please..I’m scared…..I can’t find daddy…. I ran out…and it’s still here….IT’S HERE!”

Kazuma screamed out and tears started running down his face. And he then clinged to Cali. To Cali it felt like a little boy on her leg. The Black gas starting appearing. It didn’t look like it was appearing from the little boy but, more like fog. “IT’S GOING TO KILL US! PLEASE HELP ME! DADDDY!!!” Kazuma continued. This was funny to Kazuma. He hadn’t tried anything like this before. The boy looked at Cali’s hand… “You want to kill me to… YOU WANT TO ATTACK ME TOO!!!!” Kazuma shouted then started to run and fell. The gas became as air. So as Cali was breathing she was breathing it in. Kazuma was smiling waiting for the right moment.

[Calista Leila Rosa]

"Wait what? Who was your sister? Where did this happen?" She asked as the little boy clung to her. Someone was killed at school? Sure, she had heard the rumors but she had never believed them herself.....she just believed it was a myth to scare the younger students. Suddenly dark fog began to appear. Jeez weather in this island was strange. "it's where?!" She asked looking around for whatever it was that was chasing the boy. Calista may have been cold and cruel at times, but she did have a soft spot for kids. She didn't know why but, she did.

Then the boy began to ran. "Wait! No no, i'm not going to hurt you!" She said as she hurried after the boy, breathing in the fog without a second thought. She felt a bit dizzy....but she thought that was just because of her lack of sleep

[miasma]

Kazuma smiled as she ran after him. He then stopped and turned to Cali. With a great big smile he turned into his true his look. “I am so so sorry but, my name is Kazuma. Though, you can call me….Miasma. Well, if you haven’t guess yet your life is in some serious danger. And since you look like a pretty powerful girl. I’ll stop your powers. Now I command you stop your powers and kneel before me. I confess I am your master like the dog you are” Kazuma said to her and laughed. Kazuma loved embarrassing people and he wasn’t in the mood for “playing around” anymore.

He was enraged..he didn’t know why…his whole family betrayed…why was he doing this? Why was he attacking someone for no reason? He didn’t know why. It pleasured him and that was all that mattered. “Now I am going to embarrass you. By embarrass I mean brutally hurt you. This is going to hurt me more than you. Cause I won’t be able to put enough scars on you after I am done.” Kazuma said to her. He then proceeded with all his strength to kick her in the head and started laughing like a maniac.

[Calista Leila Rosa]

Suddenly the little boy became a handsome man. Age manipulation? Calista didn't think so. It wasn't the same. Something was horribly wrong with this guy. Something really wrong. She glared at him. What was he talking about? "Like Hell I will" She glared, this guy was idiotic if he thought she would do this. But suddenly she felt her brain throb, and she slowy lowered herself into a kneel. What was she doing?! She growled at him. What was going on?! Who...or WHAT was this guy. "Y-you're my M-master...."

Calista saw his foot coming at her. But her enhanced agility couldn't even save her. Come on Cali move! But her body wouldn't respond. She glared up at him, and soon her foot collided with her head. The force of it was enough to knock her unconcious for a few minutes. Blood trickled slightly down her forehead from where her head hit the hard ground.

What was happening to her? Calista couldn't move. She couldn't wake up. Everything was white. Thoughts began to fill her head. Dark thoughts.

'he's leaving you Calista... It told her. What was that? Was it talking about Seth? Seth....he wasn't going to leave her! 'Yes he is! He'll forget about you eventually! No no no! He wouldn't! 'Embrace the chaos...the darkness Cali....you'll be safe there. A world where you'd never have to move on. Where you won't have to fight. Where everything will stay exactly the same safe? She groaned but did not wake up from her thoughts. It sounded nice....the things the voice was telling her. A small orb of darkness appeared....it was calling her. Cali slowly reached out for it.....

In reality, Calista finally opened her eyes. "Thank you master" She smiled cruelly and giggled. The Calista Rosa that was once there was gone. Her blue eyes were completely dark. "What do you wish for me to do?"

[miasma]

Kazuma watched on as the girl was trying to fight his influnece off. It was funny she had inhaled much of his gas so she had no way to fight it. After she he kicked her she finally responded in the way he wanted. "Good dog. Now bark ahahah. Anyways first tell me your name and powers.

Address in public as Kazuma. When we are alone address as "Master". As for this moment you are my dog or servant...preferably dog because servants are actually worth more than dirt." Kazuma changed into his evil demeanor. His face looked like a disgusting monster at this moment. It was actually his true "self". He flipped his hair. "Arise that I may knock you down again.... Once again you skin doesn't have as much scars as mine..." He laughed. Then once again out of pure anger and rage...he kicked in her head with all his strength... He stopped to catched his breath. "At this moment on... You will be my dog. You will fetch more people as I did you... And bring them to me. Do you have any worthy candidates?

A friend. Or a family member? Come...on I SAID ANSWER ME!" Kazuma shouted out. *He then punched her in the face...she was taking too long...plus he hated seeing people with no pain..on there face.. He had pain everyday...it wasn't fair..no one else did.. Kazuma then flipped his hair. "Now call whoever it is here now." Kazuma told her.

[Calista Leila Rosa]

Calista barked as she was told. If she ever gained back her will and awoken from this she'd be disgusted with herself....Calista nodded. He was her master, so she'd obey his orders like a good little dog.

"Yes master. My name is Calista Leila Rosa, my powers are darkness manipulation, poison manipulation and enhanced agility." She stated and the second she rose she was kicked down once more by him. More blood trickled down the side of her face but, that obedient and slightly sadistic smile still remained. She didn't even try to move out of the way. "Thank you, master" When he asked if she had any other worthy candidates.....only one person possibly came to mind. The genius with dark hair and eyes that mirrored her own.....her own brother. She smiled a bit. This was perfect. They would be together! Forever! She wouldn't ever have to let go.....She was about to reply, when his fist collided with her cheek. She could taste the blood in her mouth.......

"I apologize, master. There is someone. My older brother, Seth Rosa and as you wish." She withdrew her cell phone and pressed Seth's speed dial. She quickly cleared her throat, removing any signs of the pain echoing through ought her body. Finally he picked up.

"Hey Seth~ I was wondering if you wanted to keep me company during patrols? I'm out in the Courtyard."

[Deleted]

Seth blinked away his sleep at the sound of a song playing through his room. It wasn't very loud, but this song held significant importance in his mind. It was after all Calista's ring tone. Opening the phone, Seth placed it to his ear, and listened to Calista talked only to blink in surprise as she hung up right afterwards. It was odd, almost totally out of character for his sister. Uncertainty bubbled in the back of his mind.

Shrugging it off though, after all his sister asked him to meet her in the courtyard, Seth crawled out of his bed, pulling off the blankets, and stood up in his pants. He frowned slightly, realizing that he would have to get completely dressed, going to see Calista commando didn't seem like a good idea. He half-smirked, realizing that he still didn't have a roommate in his dorm and quickly peeled off his clothes before putting on the usual school attire. Pausing at the door slightly, Seth went back to the room and opened his chest before pulling out the titanium daggers he had created awhile back, and several other small items for transmutation, including several glass vials that looked to contain nothing but air.

Sighing softly to himself, he quickly walked out of his room, locking the door behind him, and headed to the courtyard. Tonight, he felt would defiantly be something he'd remember.

>-------------------------------------------<

Walking towards Calista and another person, both pretty much obvious as they were the only two there, and made no pretense of hiding, Seth paused in his step a little, unsure of what was going on, before striding forward with greater certainty, despite being odd, Calista still sounded fine on the phone.

Of course that statement would have to be edited the moment he saw the blood covering her face. It was horrifying to notice, and Seth's eyes quickly went to the other, glaring heavily. He didn't immediately jump into action though, there were too many unknowns at the moment to do something stupid. Letting out a small breath, he walked next to Calista, and placed his hand against her face, rubbing away at the blood on her cheek as he tried smiling at her. "What's going on?" he asked, concern heavy in his voice.

Of course, behind Seth's back, his other hand gripped tightly onto the dagger, pulling it out of the sheath placed along his belt, thankfully, besides showing that the young man was reaching for something, what he had in his grasp was hidden from sight. His hand clenched tightly onto the dagger, as he glanced over to the other person. "Who did this to you Calista?"

[miasma]

Kazuma was pleased with Calista. She even barked as told. Kazuma wished he had a video camera to film that. She sounded like a chi. Anyways her Powers was delightful. She was goin to be his offense. Kazuma didn't have much "offensive" powers. So he was goin to let her be his bodyguard. After all she was a prefect wasn't she?

They were trained for these things. Kazuma smiled sinisterly. She even said sorry for takin to long. Well, Kazuma should have expected that. Afterall she fully under his control. He could anything with her or sent her to do anything. Then he heard her say a name. Her older brother? Seth Rosa? He started to laugh. Finally something interesting was goin to happen. This was perfect! Rosa verus Rosa.

Now this was goin to be mostly pleasurable. Before Seth arrived he smiled and said to her. "When he comes here I want you to...kill him. Though, if he surrenders which I know you'll prefer. I'll simply allow him to join us. Depending on his usefulness and powers. I really am not the type of guy that likes other guys around him. Mostly girls...though we'll see." Kazuma said to her. After seeing her brother arrive. After the very sad moments which were very very borin to Kazuma he spoke. "The Miasma did." Kazuma answered to him.He tilted his head and laughed. He proceeded to walk away and lean aganist a tree for a better view for the impending fight.

"Calista you know what to do." Kazuma said and looked at Seth right into his eyes. "By the way have u heard of the stories of the Black flog? I am he. I am Miasma. Now u shouldn't be paying attention to me yup because your sister and I have been in a little "romantic" talk. Calista do it!" Kazuma commanded another time. He knew Calista would be relucant to do anything to her brother. Though that was the funny part. He wanted to see her crying as she attacked her brother... He wanted to see her in complete and utter pain. For he was Miasma.

[Calista Leila Rosa]

He seemed to be happy with her! That was good...right? Calista didn't know anymore. She didn't know what was 'right' and 'wrong' all she knew were her new master's orders, that she had to obey them no matter what. Then she heard his orders for her.....what? No.....

Calista's eyes flashed blue for a moment. "I can't!" She argued. She couldn't hurt Seth...never. Seth was her everything...how could she kill him? Pain began to shoot through her system at her opposition. No..no.....slowly her eyes grew dark again as her will began to fade once more. If....he surrendered....he would join them...They could be together that way right?.......She wouldn't have to worry about Battle Front..or Prefects...or anything. It'd just be them! Seth wouldn't hurt her....so he should surrender soon right...?

"Seth...." The control Kazuma had over her began to falter again. What was she thinking?.....She couldn't hurt him. Ever. "No one....but I deserved it...for not following orders." If she didn't do this...then Kazuma surely would...right? Her eyes began to water, her body trembled from what she knew she had to do.

"I-I'm sorry Seth....p-please...forgive me. But...I have to follow his orders...." She choked out, in one hand shadows came. She grasped the shadows, a long dark whip forming in her hand, her other began to glow the faintest purple. Using her poison, she aimed a punch at his stomach, her other hand lashing out to try and hit him with the whip.

"I'm sorry..." She sobbed. Every hit she launched towards her brother, she lost another part of herself. If this kept up...all she would be was an empty shell.

[Deleted]

Seth gritted his teeth at the words the other was saying. He wanted to turn around and slash his neck with the knife. In face, he would've already done so, having turned around and pulled out his dagger, but unfortunately, that idiot had already walked away. Not run, not sulked, but walked, as if Seth wasn't a threat.

He would soon regret such a decision.

His eyes flicked back over to Calista, his sister, when the other told her to do something. He raised an eyebrow, nudging his head over to the other man, wondering why he would say that to her. Of course, the question didn't answer nearly as much as Calista prepared her elements into her fist, and his eyes opened wide in shock as he saw the whip appear. "Calista?" He asked, in shock.

Luckily, Seth was a little more capable of reacting to threats, seeing the punch and tail of darkness coming for him, he jumped back, avoiding the punch, only to feel the darkness slam into his side, and wrap around him. One hand gripped onto a shard of metal from his belt, quickly ripping it off and placing it against the whip, before exploding it in a burst of light and noise.

Having freed himself, He took a few more steps back, pulling out a test tube of greyish powder that he started to pour onto the ground, slowly walking in a circle around Calista. Hoping to buy some time to finish his task, he started talking. "What's going on Cali? Why are you listening to him? What did he do to you?"

[Calista Leila Rosa]

Calista let go of the whip as the shadows burst apart and scattered away, Seth....he had to give up......if he didn't...Calista would have to keep fighting. She glanced over at Kazuma, she could see the look on his face....that face of pure amusement as he watched her suffer.

The dark haired teenager eyed her brother as he circled around her, pouring some powder onto the ground. He was talking to her....asking her questions that she didn't quite have the answer to. What was going on? All she was coherently thinking about was that she had to attack Seth....even if she didn't want to...she had to since Kazuma ordered it to be so.

"He did nothing." Calista stated. "I couldn't take it anymore....the lies...the stress....you were going to leave me..." She whispered. He would leave her someday. As much as she had told herself she would be able to let go, she wasn't ready to lose him. Two more whips formed formed in either hand, with a quick flick of her right wrist, a dark tendril snapped at his ankles.

"Now none of that matters anymore!" She said with a faintly sadistic smile, lashing the second whip at his torso.

[Deleted]

Seth glanced over at Kazuma again, wondering if he should increase the pressure the other was under in order to get some damage in, but held off, he didn't want to reveal anything. It would have to be under the same restrictions he always tried to operate by. Gritting his teeth, Seth popped open another vial, and contined with his actions.

Seth almost paused at Calista's words, before shaking his head and continuing with his actions. He was almost done, almost complete, but still, her words unsettled him. "I would never leave you Cali, Why would I want to leave you?"

Seth frowned as he watched Calista form more whips. It literally costed her nothing to produce her weapons, but he, well he only had so many aluminum caps, even if it was quite a bit. Gripping onto his dagger, he placed it next to his belt, flinching slightly at the loud explosion that went off on his side. Still, the blade was now burning bright, and it only cost him his footing as the whip knocked his foot back and forced him to fall on the ground.

Laughing slightly, as he realized that his circle was complete, he slashed out at the second tendril, the flames slashing through the whip as if it was air. He stood up, placing one hand on top of the powder, causing the fire to start on the other end, burning a bright white, at least six feet high.

It would burn out soon, but Calista couldn't manipulate her shadows in such an illuminated area. Not with the bright blue fires surrounding them. Seth walked slowly to the other girl, not bothering to show the slight discomfort of placing weight on his recently injured ankle. "Stop this Cali, we shouldn't be trying to hurt each other. I can't hurt you."
