(Yeah, those two. And no, I haven't tried firefight just yet.)
(You still have Xbox, right? What's your gamertag?)
"It would be pointless." Sophia sounded as though she was going to burst into tears again. Byron looked away, not wanting to gaze upon her anymore. "They're all gone...dead."
Byron struggled a bit but got back to his feet, walking to the door. "BLOOD. They caused this."
"You want to get rid of BLOOD, don't you?" Sophia suddenly looked up, a strange hope held in her eyes. She began to move to get up. "I want to help you!"

(Its fun but i like making the gravity low and being invisible with a bottomless clip...rockt launcher! yes, i cheat. XD)
(Yes I do and i just changed it: Aster Seraphiel. i still have your McFlurry13 on my friends. unfortunately, i only have two 2-day gold membership passes or else i'd have sent an invite to play already. we should make a day just play online. lol)
Corona decided to not mention what she had said previously. Either way, she'd just have to wait for the Fellpool to calm down.
On the idea of BLOOD being a new enemy, she frowned. "Easier said than done. You seem to hold a strong hatred for them...why is that, Byron?"

(I'm not that good at Halo anymore lol)
(I don't use that gamertag anymore. I'll add you though. And yeah, we should.)
Byron glanced back, the coldness in his eyes evident. "That's none of your concern, Keybearer. I have my reasons, you have yours, let's keep it at that."

(i'm okay. i never go up against friends. its just campaign. ) (just let me know to compare schedules. i only have four days in total, thats why i haven't used it. OnTheBrink, right?) "You're right, after all, it will be revealed sooner or later." Corona said. She had no energy to hate. She could put that energy to better use, like thinking. "If you don't mind, I'm going to go find some extra clothes and maybe a sewing kit. Kingdom Hearts knows we smell worse than Oogie Boogie's bug fest."

(Haha I played online a few days ago and I got whooped. lol)
(I gotcha. You have a job now, right? Why don't you just buy live; it's only like $50 a year. Sounds like it'll be a good Xmas gift to yourself.)
Byron kept quiet. He didn't know about Corona, but he did know about Wielders of the Keyblade. Their passion had dried up centuries ago, they weren't the same. His reasons were none of her concern, nor were they Sophia's. He was just using them, the same way they were all using each other.
"Yeah." He said.
Sophia kept quiet.

(I got my butt kicked first time i played on live too. and that was Halo 2.)
(I would but i have to make sure i have the four hundred to balance out school. i'll see. that and my xbox doesn't have a wireless router built it. i have to use a wire. not that hard and more reliable.)
"Good. Don't do anything stupid." Corona said as she stepped up and started to basically pillage the village. Clothe had survived and she found a new knapsack, some supplies which she dragged to the house they were in.
'A boy going through the motions and a saddened girl. Hearts, I can't stand this.' It wasn't in disgust at them, it was disgust to herself. She instead set herself in another room and began reparing her jacket.
It had been cut and burnt in a few places and having already washed and dried it, now it just needed to be sewn up. Five years ago, she could have just thrown this away and grabbed a new one...this was her old uniform after all...just altered when she needed it.
Once she finished the last stitch, she looked back at the room, peaking in. '...what am I even doing here?'

(What's Firefight, by the way?)
(Ah, true. I had to get a wireless router because the Ethernet port in the living room doesn't work and that's where the big TV is.)
After Corona left, silence swept through the room. Complete and utter silence. Sophia's sniffles and whimpers had died down, so now it was eerily quiet.
But she was the first to speak.
"What it's like..." She began, refusing to look up. "...to live on New Alpha?"
Byron adjusted himself a bit in order to get Sophia in his sights, but he didn't fully look at her. "Horrible. No one should live there. BLOOD has turned it into a city of danger and crime controlled by them."
"Is that why you don't like them....because they ruined your world?"
"I'm not from New Alpha. I'm from Farplex Genesis." Byron corrected her. "But I haven't been there in a long time...."

(Firefight is basically one, long battle against the covenant that you do in sets. you kill them each wave at a time and accumulate points with every difficulty. it ends when you run out of lives or get tired of it. lol)
(i'll use the cord until i need to buy a new xbox. i have the old 20 GB and i'd like to get an Elite. cords can be a handfull.)
Corona could hear them from the other room but didn't comment and din't try to listen. That would be rude...who the hell was she kidding?
The keybearer hadn't seen her home since she was taken by her Master. She never went there even to just visit. Did her parents care? Was she just forgotten?
Pricking herself on the needle, she hissed at the pain but then continued on altering the outfit for later use.

(So it's like Zombies and Survival from COD.)
(Good thinking, and yeah they can.)
"Farplex Genesis?" Sophia had never heard of such a place.
Byron just nodded. "Yeah. Don't ask what it looks like or what it's like there, because I hardly remember." He lowered his gaze. "Just a bunch of unwanted, New Alpha memories."

(Yeah except ur not fighting Flood...THANK GOD! i hate fighting flood. on that note, do you have the Call of Duty Black Ops Rezurrection? the kind where they go to the moon? i want to play that!) (but if you ever have a good day to play, just let me know and I'll make a day to play on live. o vice versa. ) "Memories are memories." Corona said as she came in, holding a few items she had just altered. "Don't give me a look, Byron. Anyone could hear you." "In case we have to pass through portal again, these arm bands will protect you like my armor does for me. I'll have to recharge the charm but it will work." She said, holding the black arm bands.

(Nah, I don't have that. Hell, I had to sell most of my games just to get MW3.)
(Will do, will do. lol)
"I was speaking aloud, not in whispers. It doesn't concern me if you were ease-dropping or not, just strengthens my beliefs." Byron replied, his eyes going back out the window.
"How can simple arm bands protect us?" Sophia asked.

(Ouch...that's no fun. its rare i buy a new game though most of mine are preowned save for the Halos and most of my gamecube games, Sonic mostly.) ( ) "Its a magic element composed of Reflect and Light." Corona answered. "When I just wear my armor on my shoulder, it provides resistance to Darkness and some magic. Its like that." "The arm bands were alread in one of the equipment shops; I just modified them a bit." Corona said. "Added a layer of leather and sewn in a few more charms..."

(I only keep games that are interesting to me. DBZ mostly, and COD. That's it. Every other game can be sold.)
Sophia stood up and walked over. "Will they help in a fight?"

(Did you get that new DBZ game? I can't remember it but it looked fantastic. fairly new.)
"Against heartless and some of malicious intent yes." Corona said. "If you want, I could make an outfit for you that will protect it a fight...probably better than my armor and just as good as Byron's vest."

(Yeah, I preordered it before it actually came out. It's a decent game; it's sort of like a game of chance, which downgrades it for me. But the Character Creation was a great feature, to some degree. If I knew it was going to be like it is, I would of just bought another DBZ game.)
Sophia nodded. "Yes, could you, please?"

(What about the stages on which you fight? that seemed more open world than the almost street fighter look of the previous.)
"What would you like then?"
'What the hell are you doing, Corona?' You just offered to make something for this fellpool? That doesn't happen overnight!' Ignoring her rational self, she saw a book lying around and a paper. "Just draw what you want and I'll get started."

(Nah. The stages are slightly larger. But the Budokai Tenkaichi and Raging Blast games had large stages as well, so it's nothing new. I mean, it's a whole new system to the fighting, so it takes tactics and luck to win. I haven't played online yet.)
"Alright." Sophia said, grabbing the paper. "I just want some weapons really, something to help in a fight. Gauntlets or something."

(I have yet to play any but i can imagine what online play is like. so different from fighting the computer.)
"No problem. I can do that." Corona said. Pride was etched in her voice, knowing these skills would good to learn. She knew when she left she'd have to learn new trades if she was going to be traveling alone.

(Honestly, Tenkaichi 3 was the best for me. Loads of characters and I practically dominated the game and any player who wanted to step up. I taught Brandon how to play, gave him the best characters, and I beat him 1 on 5 and only got hit like 3 times. He did beat me once though, but that's because I was trying to do something I had seen the computer had done on me. He still won't let go of that victory. lol)
Sophia said down at the table and continued drawing. "Where are you from, Corona? Is your world still around?"

"Twilight Town." Corona answered, leaning back in her chair. "Though, I was trained on Radiant Garden most of my life. I haven't been...home...since then."
(I think i may have seen a friend of mine play that but i wasn't interested in dbz then. i didn't understand the story like i did now but i've heard from plenty of ppl the games are very much worth the try.)
