[Jacob]

*Setting: Sasha watched as the Sun slowly set on the Horizon. Sat on a log the female crossbreed gently nursed her wounds, her right arm was laden with cuts from shards of glass that had embedded in her when she had swerved to avoid the energy blast and accidently crashed into another room. Looking over at Tobias she growled lowly, blaming him for the escape of the rogue beast. Accompanying the two mortal creatures was two Sarraphin. One was one of the large black guard-like beasts from previous and the other a Sealer. A sort of more pathetic, skinny form of the others but with the powers to stop interdimensional travel and thus contain the rogue Sarraphin to this Dimension. The creatures feathered wings had red tints hidden in them and its eyes were faint sky-blue.*

Sasha: "Hey, don't suppose either of you two could help me out here?"

Standing up she slowly moved over to one of the black figures, hoping that with their time-wielding powers they would be able to heal her quickly. But in nearing the vicinity of the Sealer, the large black guard snarled and stopped her from proceeding telekineticly.

Sasha: "What the...?!"

Trying to move forwards and push against the resistance she slowly beat her wings, but due to her persistance the creature quickly grounded her. Forcing her back at such a harsh speed that she fell down upon her back. Turning to see what the commotion was Tobias sneered and shook his head gently, he then turned and headed towards a nearby tree.

Tobias: "I'm just off to take a leak, be back in a minute..."

He shouted this without turning around, quite sure that the being wouldn't stop him from going about his business. Approaching the tree he slowly unzipped his fly and then stood facing it as he took ahold of his penis and began to urinate up against it.

Voice: "Tobias...Tobiasss..."

Stopping mid-flow Tobias took a sharp intake of breath as he seemingly recognised the voice. Looking around him he gulped wearily and slowly attempted to back away, regardless of the fact he hadn't finished urinating. But as he did so a strange force grasped his windpipe and squeezed gently, his head lifted slightly and his Heart began to beat faster.

Voice: "You idiot, Tobias. You moron. You want to save existance itself and yet you aid the enemy..."

A choked reply was all that was mustered, that and the random spurting of urine up against the tree as his bladder muscles contracted and relaxed with fear.

Voice: "You want to know the truth, Tobias? You want to know who to trust...? Here, watch..."

A tingling sensation became apparent in his brain as the light of the dusk began to get brighter. His arms and legs tingled and as he blinked a sense of coldness and hatred washed over him.
*Bright flash*

*Memory*
As the brightness subdued a dark and cold land became apparent. Not so much a land, but a dark and dreary building. The walls were brown stone and the floors and ceiling a dirty, soily, grey. Looking around the area Tobias noticed several glassless windows. Walking upto one he looked outside, hoping to catch a glimpse of something that looked remotely Orkhid-esque or atleast Oddworldish. But all he saw was blackness. As if there was a black, starry curtain drawn all around the building he was situated in. Stepping down the large corridor, Tobias looked around nervously, not knowing if the experience was real or if he was in any danger at all. Turning left at the end of the corridor, the Orkhid then began to walk towards a door. Large, brown and wooden was this door, with a black metal hinge and a large black handle. Irrate voices could be heared shouting from behind the door, a strange language was what they spoke in but one that Tobias could seemingly understand. Fumbling with the handle Tobias slowly opened the door a crack and peered into the room, here he saw four black Sarraphin and many large, Orkhid-size mirrors, lining the walls. One of the four Sarraphin was sat high up on a large, black throne. Stoney, grey steps led upto this throne but all of the other Sarraphin stood meakly at the bottom.

Sarraphin #1: "But sire, what are we to do?! If this theory is correct then we are surely doomed to either live among the mortals or to carry on our existance in oblivion..."

The creature looked nervous and as Tobias shifted himself slowly into the room to get a better look, noticed that one of the other three Sarraphin was Arias. It was situated in the middle of the other two and stood proudly infront of its superior.

Sarraphin Lord: "We will do what we must to survive, that is our way..."

Sarraphin #1: "But what? What can we do!? We cannot control them, we cannot destroy them. They're multiplying by the second!!"

As it spoke it moved forwards, its arm movements became irratic and its wings twitched nervously.

Sarraphin #2: "We could...make them bleed into each other. Make them become apart of each other. And when all are sharing existance with the other, cause a Dimensional rupture. Their worlds will be oblitorated instantly and allowing us to wipe the slate clean..."

Arias: "But what if we're wrong..."

Sarraphin Lord: "Then we are wrong. No harm, no foul..."

Stepping backwards the, apparently, rogue Sarraphin shook its head gently.

Arias: "But this means that their lives would have been destroyed...for nothing."

Sarraphin #2: "But if we are right, then it means we will survive."

The large, black creature sat upon the throne nodded and leant forwards. Its white eyes shining brightly as its lipless mouthed formed into a smirk.

Sarraphin Lord: "What are the consequences to us, if any...?"

The second creature shook its head from side to side, smiling softly.

Sarraphin #2: "None, if there's no other Sarraphin in any of the Dimensions. If there is, then it could cause our world to disintergrate with theirs..."

The inferior creature smiled, proud that it had come up with an idea that would be the only thing that would save their existance.

Sarraphin Lord: "Very well. Start making your prepa..."

Arias: "NO. I ask of you, sire, please re-think. We can't just go about destroying the existance of our lowers!! Its inhumane. Its cruel!!"

Sarraphin Lord: "It is our only chance of survival, Arias. Our only hope of surviving to see another millenium. We have to do it!!"

Stepping away from Arias the other two creatures seemed to sense that trouble was brewing. If not for Arias' insolence, then for his want to protect creatures far below themselves.

Arias: "It may not be needed!! It may not even work!!"

Sarraphin Lord: "BUT WE MUST TRY!!"

Slamming its palms down on the arms of its throne the Lord stood to its feet and snarled loudly. Its black wings unfurled in anger and shards of blue electricity hurtled around its arms.

Arias: "WE SHALL TRY ANOTHER WAY...ATLEAST FOR NOW!!"

Turning its back on its superior, Arias headed to the doorway. Not only showing disrespect for its Lord but for the entire race. In a mad rage a formation of blue particles began to swirl around the hand of the Lord. These particles soon began to manifest into a blue flame and in seconds this flame was hurled towards the disrespectful Arias. Turning quickly Arias noticed this and dived to the left, avoiding the contact of the instantly-killing fire. Landing on its side Arias looked up at the other two Sarraphin who gave a worried glance, knowing that it was truly screwed no matter what it did from then on.

Sarraphin Lord: "DAMN YOU, ARIAS. DAMN YOU TO OBLIVION!!"

A blast of red and yellow energy hurtled towards the downed creature as it quickly made a stand. Hitting Arias' chest the energy then engulfed him in a painful, natural coloured fire that singed his black, smooth skin and caused it to wail in agony. However, as it awaited for his inevitable death he noticed one of the mirrors was active and sped towards it, and as Tobias watched, Arias had ran into the mirror and disappeared with a ripple. Into another Dimension...
*Bright flash*

The Orkhid staggered backwards and fell on his back, shocked and fearful of what he just saw. His urine spurted up into the air and soaked his legs and stomach, but he didn't care...he had just learnt the truth...and realised at how close he came to destroying everything...
