The Seven Deadly Sins

  • So many newbies lately! Here is a very important PSA about one of our most vital content policies! Read it even if you are an ancient member!
Logan felt pain, "#$%* annoying woman," Logan mumbled, he staggered up... A tree behind them started to wither, He laughed "Can you defeat me before all the animals and plants die, and i have to start sapping Energy, from you people?" The tree was bare, and a smell of rotten wood slowly filled the air, (not trying to make him to powerful this is about as strong as he gets, couldn't think of a better way, besides he is have Fallen angel/demon anyway death for own life and all)
 
Parsee laughed. "You look awesome... ALL OF YOU!!! I wish I had the same clothes as HER! I wish I had all that gold!" She pounced towards the room as she found something. Suddenly, her golden medallion fell off of her neck. Parsee looked as she tried to grab the golden medallion. "NO FAIR!!" She boasted tearfully as she saw it fall to the ground. Then, with impulse, Parsee left it on the ground for someone to get. Parsee's hair was now frayed and her right thumbnail tip was broken.
 
Stolz was not intimidated. "I know I can defeat you without evenbreaking a sweat," Stolz said confidently. She knew each of the sins wellalong with their weaknesses. Quick as a flash she took out her sword and bonkedLogan over the head, knocking him out cold. He was fast asleep by the time hehit the floor. He would thank her in three hours; sleeping was his favoritething. Stolz, with her great man-like strength, scooped Logan off the groundand slung him over her shoulder.
"Get ready to move out!" Stolz commanded to the others. She grabbedKnecht'sbridal and began to lead him away, expecting the others to grab theirthings and follow. As she walked by Parsee she snatched up the amulet she haddroped. "I'm sure this will look very nice on me. Much nicer than it did onyou," she mocked as she held it over her head. She pretended to expect theamulet closely, "Ohh, I bet its worth a fortune..." Her hopes were toget the others to follow now; sometimes it took a little work. But she was upfor it. "Shinny and... Oh, I could trade it in for a nice meal. Yumm,steak. How I love juicy red meat. Bloody and," she sighed in delight,nearly drooling on herself.

((Hope you're okay with me knocking you out. Just thought you might need anap.))
 
Sylvie growled at Stolz. "Really? You had to say that? I'm starving! If we don't get going, I'm going to eat one of you!" She clenched her fists in her lap and tried to think of something other than warm, red blood.
 
"Fine, more for me!" Natalie replied when Anne returned her the money. It's not like Stolz or Logan wanted the gold coins, they were far more appreciated in her own pocket- at least in Natalie's opinion. Her greed was endless though, so she was most likely correct. As the demonic fight came to an end, Natalie stared at the amulet dropped by Parsee. Just before Natalie went to snatch it up like she had the gold coins, Stolz took the glimmering prize first. The words of food from Stolz didn't move Natalie- she had tasted much nicer blood than the blood from rare steak- but none the less that amulet sure was pretty. She made a note to herself to steal it later when everybody was less tense and alert. For now Natalie set off, following the group, as she called out to Anne, "Come on Anne, we're leaving! If you're steal feeling weak, i'll carry you for a bit!"
 
Anne stood up again and followed then holding onto Natalie's shirt. "I fine right now." She said as she walked. She didn't like how violent everyone was to each other. It wasn't right and almost enough for her to be filled with rage. She kept brushing it away however because of what her captain said. He was the only person she ever really liked until now. Natalie was nice too, she sometimes though about what would happen if she ran away. Stolz might chase her down because someone leaving her group would hurt her pride. She wouldn't be the leader of all of the 7 sins. Natalie would too, she hoped, but the others might not unless Stolz tells them to... she brushed away the thought again because she was to afraid of what Stolz might do...
 
(sure Logan likes naps....mmmmm...)
Logan was dreaming, he saw the energy begin to build 3 minutes worth... His dream was a black mist showing his, past his demonic deeds,... death, the smell of Carrion... his mother and father's twisted remains... the problem with sleeping al the time logan thought, is that you nightmares never stop hmmmnn I want pie when i wake up.... Logan dreamed almost conscious almost asleep, he fell into a deeper sleep...
 
Stolz kept on walking, knowing that the others wouldn't be far behind; she had all their stuff after all. The sun was now past the tip of the Dragon Hills and the day had just begun. They started out later than she had hoped, but at least they were finally moving out. Logan was twitching in his sleep as he dreamed, making it all the harder to carry his lazy butt. He began to mumble something about pie... Stolz was starving! Her stomach agreed. That measly eggs and bacon were hardly anything. And thinking of that steak... Oh god... Stolz's eyes began to roll back in her head at the thought of food. They had run their rations dry and she could hardly afford to buy new supplies... The others could, they saved tons of money, especially Nathan and lazy Logan. But her pride refrained her from asking them to pay. 'Ugh! But we need food. Hopefully we can find a job in the next town. If there is a next town.' Did they have a map? She wondered. "HEY!" she called back to those following her. "Whose got the map?"
 
Natalie thought Anne looked a bit weary, and she seemed more caught up in her thoughts than real life. Natalie shrugged it off for the moment though, instead answering Stolz's question. "I had a small corner of it, which showed the way to some insignificant place. But the rest of the map, showing where we are and where we're going, I don't," Natalie called out. She'd ripped off a small corner of the map for a stranger who had been interested in it; it had been worth the money, even if Stolz would get mad at her. Then the sudden thought of pie popped into her head, but she wasn't sure why as she hadn't been listening to Logan's sleep talk.
 
Logan was building up power 50 % now...
His mind dreamed of when he was a boy his father, used a light from the palm of his hand to fix a mans severed arm....
a few years later he used his pow to cure a disease, and after that when Logan was 16 his father was killed trying to atone for his sins, Logan had taken over his work, healing people all over the land with the help of his mother, but when she was stolen, he went Mad...
 
Anne yawned and half leaned on Natalie as she walked. She was board and didn't really have much to do... or much she could do. If she still had her energy she would be able to run around and play as they went, but she didn't so she was stuck trying to keep up with the rest. She looked up at Natalie out of curiosity, she wanted to figure out how Natalie wasn't board. She yawned again feeling sleepy but she didn't want to burden the others, they were her friends though she did know she wouldn't be able to keep walking for much longer. She started to feel like Logan...

Anne tried to take her mind off of it by looking around at the landscape. She liked to look at nature but it didn't help, "Can we slow down a little bit?" She said hoping they could take it a little easier. She would last a bit longer and further if she could walk at her pace instead of Stolz. Stolz kept a fast pace of walking trying to outlast everyone, she must have wanted to prove she was the strongest...
 
Natalie saw that Anne had been slowing down before she asked the group to lessen the pace. Natalie pitied Anne, and how she was unable to stay energetic. Most of the sins were restless, especially their ruthless leader Stolz. Exhaling a large sigh, Natalie bent down and spoke, "We can't slow down if we want to get where ever we're going in good time. But you can ride on my back for a bit, if you want." Normally Natalie would ask for a reward after doing favors like this, but Natalie would make an exception for Anne- from kindness, and because Anne had nothing of value to Natalie. Damn, I hope none of the other sins will expect anything extra from me after this. It's unnatural for me to give away much.
 
'No map? Well this is crud,' Stolz mumbled under her breath. She really had no idea where the next town was, or if there even was a town to be found. She hoped... "BAH! Who needs a map!" she said half to the others, half to herself. "My natural sense of direction will get us there in no time!" she assured with a prideful grin across her face, but with a hidden patch of doubt in the corner of her lips. Stolz had a terrible sense of direction in truth... Last time she had gotten the Sins lost the some damnable forest for seven days where they nearly ran out of food and water. They were on an escort mission for some noble lady, and the map had been soaked and torn apart when someone had forgotten it was in their pocket when they decided to get pushed in the river. Well the noble lady died and Natalie took all her shinny jewels but was forced to give some to the other Sins, but Stolz knew Nat had kept more than her fair share. Never did Stolz admit to getting them lost.

Stolz began to walk faster...
 
"Ahh, Stolz!" Anne calls after her but when she doesn't stop Anne finally takes Natalie up on her offer. She looks at her feet and says quietly "I would like, if.. you would help.." She didn't want to ask for help and burden another sin but she couldn't help it. If she couldn't keep up she couldn't keep up and it would be worse to slow them down.

Anne climbed onto Natalie's back.

She felt sad for burdening her friend. She felt a small anger towards Stolz for deliberately speeding up when she asked to slow down. She slowly was able to calm herself and just kept repeating in her mind, 'Stolz is a friend, Stolz is a friend.'
 
Logan felt the wind blow, the problem with his brain is that he was fully awake even when resting, he stole just a titch of energy from a passing tree, "south..." he whispered softly before passing out again, he with his lazy senses could detect cheap feather beds in a motel to the south...
 
Sylvie stooped over Logan and grabbed him by the ankle. Trailing him behind her like a rag doll, she trudged after Stolz. Logan could handle being dragged a little ways, and she was fed up with the pace they were going at. "Stupid sleepy demon of stupid sleep..." she muttered to herself. Her stomach growled.
 
After hearing Stolz' shouts, Natalie knew Stolz was thinking about the last time they got lost. They'd all gotten into a river some how, so the map was probably destroyed then; Natalie knew it hadn't been her with the map because her pockets were too full of gold. Which, also got washed away. Natalie remembered acquiring a few pretty jewels from the noble lady that died, that had cheered her up after her loss of gold. Stolz had obviously been mad at Natalie for looting so much, but hadn't said anything. Natalie didn't blame Stolz, even though Natalie knew she'd done wrong. Natalie didn't care enough, she just accepted sinning.

Natalie was brought out of her wondering and back to reality when she felt Anne clamber onto her back. Deciding to just forget what she'd been thinking about, Natalie stood up, taking a few moments to get stable with Anne on her back. Then, when she was ready, Natalie continued trekking onward- most likely to the middle of nowhere with Stolz's sense of direction. Logan mumbled something that sounded like the word 'sloth' to Natalie. Unsurprising for Logan, yet he probably meant something else.

Natalie began to feel Anne's legs tense up. Even though Natalie didn't know why, she still advised, "Anne, relax up there. You're doing me a favor by letting me carry you, I look like less of a 'tard now i'm doing something nice for once. Take advantage of it, and have some fun...or what ever you can do on somebodies back..."
 
((Fast-forwarding time now!))

Their long trek was beginning to even wear on Stolz. They had been walking for hours and carrying lard-ball Logan was tiresome. Eventually she had to stop. Stolz stopped dead in her tracks and dropped Logan like a sack of potatoes. From the sighs of relief, Stolz could tell the rest were glad to take a pit stop. Knecht also plopped to the ground in pure exhaustion. Stoz whipped out her water canteen to quench her dry thirst. She chugged nearly half of it down with most of it spilling and trickling down her neck. She let out a loud gasp and wiped her face with her arm. "How refreshing." She then found herself a comfy seat on Logan's chest. "Where the hell is the next town?" she grumbled, failing to notice the one only yards away.
 
Anne had fallen asleep on Natalies back. Her arms were loosely wrapped around Natalies neck and her head resting on Natalies shoulder. When they stoped and Stolz dropped Logan on the ground with a large thud she woke up. Slowly she opened her eye and looked over at Stolz who was saying something that didn't register in Annes head. She was now well rested and dropped off of Natalies back.

"I'm sorry." She said relizing she had slept for well over a couple of hours. When she looked up she could see a city. "Oh we're here!" she said happily runs to the city gate.
 
Logan woke up finally, "Ack-" he swivld out from under stolz and turned to the town.... "Bed..." Logan glanced around, "Whens lunch?"
