Teen Titans: The Apocalypse ( RPG Thread )

Angel tucked her hair behind her ears, suddenly feeling much less hungry than she had at first.
"I'm sorry, I wouldn't have brought it up if I'd only known..."
Her voice died away lamely, and she rubbed her arm awkwardly. But suddenly, a thought ocurred to her.
"Would you mind if I asked you one more thing, or is it too painful?" she asked trying to sound as gentle as possible.

He turned his head to look a her. "Go for it.I don`t mind."His face lightened up to his normal expression.

"Well...Your drawings seem pretty safe to me...What did you do to be able to control them? I mean, they must have been pretty dangerous if they...well, did what they did..."
Angel trailed off again, almost too afraid to watch Maru's reaction to her question. She hoped he wouldn't be offended.

"well i just embraced my power.Once i embraced them i could control them.But until i embraced my 'gift' i didn`t even have to hide them afterward"His expression didn`t change at all.His saphire eyes looked into her`s.

"So then...You just left, after your parents died, I mean?" she breathed. Maru's eyes were very disconcerting. Angel noticed that they were almost pleasantly yet unnaturaly blue.
"Where did you go?!"

"I just wandered endlessly.Nowhere in perticular.I went where my feet took me."he grabbed another burger.

"And you just drew the essentials, didn't you?" Angel asked, finally understanding.
"You can draw food, a bed, water, even a shelter...but...what about friends?...You ever try and draw people?"

"Yes,just the essentials.People,I tried once but that turned out badly" His muscules tensed once.But thinking back he relaxed almost immediatly.He hadn`t meant to tense up at her.

Angel figured she had better lay off with the questions for a while. She cleared her throat, and said sympathetically "I understand about the whole 'parent thing.' My parents actually died a few months ago...It's sad...But I know they're okay now..."
She finally finished off the slice of pizza she had been working on and added "Wow, I'm stuffed...And I'm not even that pale anymore!"

He smiled slightly."Yeah"he didn`t know what to say about her parents 'oh so we`re in the same boat then.Welcome to the club'?He didn`t think so.

"So...I guess we should try and start heading back...There's gotta be someone who's still alive and around in that city..." she said, already trying to stand. It was hard, as if the ground were trying to push her away then pull her in again.
"Moving was so much easier as a ghost..." Angel complained, wobbling.

He stood up and helped her up.His arm felt bulkier than he ever let on."You`ll get used to it".

"Hey thanks" Angel replied, slightly surprised at how easily he was able to help her along.
"This hopefully won't take too long. I know it can't be fun to have a stupid girl need your help to even walk!...Urgh, how embarrassing" she muttered, the end part more to herself than to him.
"I promise you, I'm usually not this weak!" she said defensively.

"No problem.I doubt your weak at all."

Angel laughed.
"You have more faith in my strength than I do! Ah well...It's getting better at least, and the food should help my body recooperate as well. Hey! The ground's actually stopped rolling now!"
Tentatively, she tested the ground with her right foot and she was able to sort of limp a little, her feet and legs slowly growing acustomed to it all.
"Well, it's a start, right?" Angel asked sheepishly.

::Jacope X and Jacope II were both getting tired of wating for a reply so they left and went on walking::

JAcope II: ANYBODY HERE!!!!!!!!!!!

::They both stop to rest. Jacope X fell back to sleep finally after 4 months while JAcope II went behind a building changing. He tyakes off his shirt showing a six pack, muscles, and most important of all an X tattooo. He got it when he was 6. Jacope takes his pants off then puts on these bagged jeans, Long black tee with scarface on it, and nike snekers uptowns. Jacope II sits a rest for a while.

"Right,well you can at least sort of walk now"He watched her limp for a few seconds. "Or I could just carry you to where you need to be while you recouperate some more."He walked over and picked up his scarlet trench coat and put it on.He walked back over.He didn`t look like he was joking about carrying her either.

Angel turned a bright crimson, almost so much so that her face matched his overcoat.
"Oh!-Um...I doubt that will be necessa-OH!"
Angel's left foot instantly landed hard right into a rabbit hole.
"Ouch!...My stupid foot is stuck!"
She yanked on it hard until it finally gave way, throttling her backwards. She would have hit the ground, but she grabbed hold of Maru's arm, tugging on his overcoat.
"Sorry! Sorry...I'm so sorry" she said, super embarrassed now.
'Since when have I acted like this?! Am I stupid or something?! Perhaps I am...'
"Um...well...Maybe if you still wouldn't mind carrying me, you could just get me out of the graveyard and back up to the road. I'll probably be able to handle pavement..." she said, examining her fingernails so she wouldn't have to look at Maru.
'First my Father, and now this! Jeez...'

He picked her off her feet,almost effortlessly.Walking out to the road he set her back on her feet,but he still had a hand on her shoulder to help her balance,not wanting her to bust her face opne on the pavement.

"Thanks" Angel said, her face turning back to it's more muted color. She hated to admit it to herself, but she actually had only half been grateful for him putting her back down on the pavement.
Forcing these thoughts out of her head, she began to slowly limp forward until after about seven steps when she was beginning to walk normally again.
"Well, this is definitely improving" she commented.
"Again, thanks...Well, I guess we ought to head for the City Limits sign. Maybe we can find more people."
