A figure hulled itself forward and back again deep in the bowls of the Dimension jumpers HQ he was behind white gray steel bars that seemed to glow with some inner light at if they where the only thing keeping the figure at bey. a woman walked into the room her long red hair was tied up in an elegant top knot and like many of her line she looked like the current queen keran. her eyes however where blood red just like her hair. she walked up to the bars and hissed in another language to the figure with in. it stopped its pacing sharp silver eyes suddenly snapped to the woman.
he hissed back in the language she had used straightening his form like a wild animal preparing to attack. the woman watched it with curiosity her eyes sparkling with inner mischief. things where taking a turn for the worse when it came to the keran situation. the blood line had crumbled with the unorthodox girl and her insistence on lenancy of the rules. the whole race was dieing as she stood there because of the woman's mismanagement they had had more then a dozen jumpers go rouge and keran did little to chase them down. in her day they would have been pursued ruthlessly and then killed when they where found.
"Keran has become more then an annoyance... she had gathered a large group of gifted jumpers around her each with there own abilities. the struggle for power has started. you are the first progenerator of out race. the son of the god who lent her powers to the gifted ones." the figure looked at her darkly he had been confined to this cell for millions of years but they still seemed like nothing to him. she had done this to him the first queen his own daughter afraid of his powers had locked him deep withing the HQ behind bars even a god could not break only those of her blood could break them. and only a female.
"Let me out..." his voice croaked darkly as if it had not been used in centuries "Let me out and I ,Theophanes will deal with your rouge girl." he said walking up to the bars careful not to touch the pulsing light. the woman looked at him and smirked. she had been told time and time again when she was a kid how dangerous this man was and how he was not to be trusted.
"you hold a lifelong hate for my blood..." she laughed. "why would i stupidly let you go?" her eyes seemed to dance with some inner happiness at this mans pain. seeing men like this made her feel so alive. there was a reason she had been known as the insatiable queen. she had single handedly increased the population of the jumpers with all of her illegitimate children. however there was a price for this the majority of those children seemed to somehow have lost the ability to go into the controller dimension only her fifth daughter was capable of that feat. she had been to sweet and to kind she had tired to reason with the demoni rather then fighting them like the filth they where.
"I wont harm you if you let me go...I will not promise the same of your blood line" the mans eyes flashed dangerously at her as he spoke. she was pulled out her memories with his words and found her self smirking darkly. she put a hand to the bar slowly and then laughed again as he pulled away keeping him restrained.
"I still do not like your terms Theophanes" she mocked him by standing so close to the bars yet he could not touch her. her insensate chatter was angering him as he stood there captive of a lifetime and more now freedom was in his grasp but he could not have it unless he made his deal more sweet to the one who thought herself god. he never meant to keep anything he was saying anyways. this line was fatality flawed and he had to take out every visage of it. he stretched his huge black wings that came from his back another pair of white ones nestled in them. his long hair was dark and tumbled into his white silver eyes.
"I promise to not harm any of your family line other then this keran woman...My quarrel is not with your family it is with the wench that locked me in this place...I heard she died a long time ago..." his voice was rough and dark. the woman felt chills run down her spine. his voice was turning her on worse then any mans body. the woman nodded and then laughed finally putting her hand to the bars. they disappeared and the tall angelic demi-god stepped out his tall frame seemed to be clad in a light that fluctuated to darkness so this was a twilight being. the woman smiled and stepped up to him.
"Theophanes...you are free now will you give me a reward for freeing you" she put her hands on his chest and turned him so he was oppisate of her she then pushed him to the wall and kissed him. the angelic man growled as he was kissed and then reached out for her shoulders. in a second the woman was dead her life sucked from her body. he dropped the bloodless kill and then slowly he seemed to fade away disappearing into the dimensions to bide his time before he could get his revenge.

The city was blanketed under the cover of a pitch black night. It was moonless, and the stars seemed to have flickered out. One could hardly see their hand in front of their faces. It was the dangerous darkness, the kind in which young women were kidnapped and murdered in alleys, where blood flowed as freely as champagne at a wedding. This was precisely the kind of darkness that Elora had found herself caught in.
She had been wandering the city again- a thing the girl had been taught at a young age not to do (of course that was when she was human). It wasn't like she couldn't defend herself against most assaliants. Elora was a lovely fallen angel, with the red eyes given to her at the change and the deep thick purple locks she had always had. It brought her a sort of smirking pleasure to wander these dark and dangerous roads- criminals tried to kill her so she pretended they succeeded. It was countless how many times she had been murdered. Then she would kill them.
The fallen had been cursed with a gift- it took a rather long time for her to die, and the wounds healed fast. Elora knew she could be killed somehow- but it was not by a human. The werewolves, vampires, and other fallens that walked these streets were more of a battle, however. She hadn't run into many and they had been weak ones- but Elora knew that somewhere amongst all these lights and humans there was the few vampires, the couple of fallens, the choice werewolf that could kill her. And that was the kind of excitement she lived for.
Her three inch heel knee high black boots made a soft splashing sounds in a rather sticky puddle. Elora look down to find a pool of blood from some unlucky hobo beneath her feet. She sighed and continued walking, shaking the blood off as she went. Her flowy black skirt was blown in the gentle late spring wind, but it was warm enough to where a sleeveless corset- which she was wearing, in a dark red color that offset her eyes well. Elora continued on walking, hoping to encounter the murderer soon...

Theophanes appered with in the city his tall figure was clad in nothing more then shabled of robes that the jumpers had offered him many years before. his body was slender and lith like a fine tuned machien. his silver eyes searched despratly for some light to illumante the dark world he had lived in for so many years but they found nothing in the black alleyways. his hair was a mass of tangles from the lack of anything to groom himself on his back laid his strange double winges set.
"...that will pay for everything they have done...." he said softly to himself his own voice sounded odd to him. he had not heard it in almost a millon years except to speak to the countless councle members who paraded past his cell from time to time. well that had all changed he was now free. he walked slowly looking stoical despite his current apperance. his hair hung in his face makeing him look like a wild animal. he turned a corner and spotted a woman the first non-jumper he had seen in so long.

Elora saw the slight outline of a figure in the pitch black night. She strained her eyes to get a better look, moving closer without even realizing it. Elora's eyes adjusted as they fell upon the man. His appearence was haggard and disheveled, but handsomeness lay somewhere beneath the mattes and tatters of clothes.
At first Elora believed he might be the murderer, but why would he be coming back? Then she realized that someone of that haggard a look was not in any condition to be killing. A small gasp escaped her lips as she stopped in her tracks, laying her eyes upon his wings. A double set.. he was not a seraphim, but not a normal angel either... what was he? Elora absentmindedly noted the fact that her magnificient black wings showed themselves. Most likely because she did not feel the need to hide them. "h...hello...?" she said in a soft voice, about three feet away. She was sure he would have been able to hear, but Elora was slightly apprehensive.

The beatifuly angelic man looked at her and then he heard her voice like bells in his ears he had not heard such a pure voice in a long time. all of the councils voices had seemed to run together and become ugly in his head the more he had heard them. he opened his mouth to talk but then could not find the words to speak his gratitued just to be able to see this woman. his eyes slowly made there way to her wings she was an angel a fallen pure and unsoiled by the darkness that was the dimension jumpers.
"...who are you my child..." he whispered his voice crackling from lack of use. his silver eyes intensly watching her as if they where hungerly devoering her every being. he was tall about six five and his higth only inhanced his etheral apperance.

Elora stared at him for a long moment, unable to take her eyes away long enough to answer his question. She came out of her daze after a moment but continued to watch his face, hardly even noticing the look he was giving her. "My name is Elora Jayth... I'm a fallen kind of..." She stepped closer, closing the distance more. "Are you okay? Do you need help..." Elora reached her hand out to touch his arm but pulled back slightly, not sure if she was allowed to touch such a being. "What is your name?"

Theophanes flinched when he was touched by the girl the feeling of another's skin on his hadnt been expected. the man looked at her slightly when she asked him if he needed help he then heard her ask his name he looked at her slowly then spoke his own name.
"Theophanes...The reviler of god...I am a demi-god of the first degree..." he spoke quietly as if it was hard for him to form the words. he looked at her his eyes searching her over still she was purely not a jumper he then knew what he needed to do he put his hand slowly on her cheek and looked her in the eyes. "This is my gift to you for offering your help..." his voice said gentily as he unlocked the marker of the jumpers within her DNA she would be part of the new peacekeepers the new jumpers who where unsoiled by the evils that plegued those that already exsisted.

"huh?" She said slightly confused as she continued to stare at his eyes. "I don't understand... I don't feel any different... not to sound disrespectful, thank you for the gift but I do not know what it was..." Elora's voice had a soothing calm to it, something she had always had growing up. "Do you... want to stay somewhere for the night? I have an extra bed... you just seem a little lost..."

Theophanes looked at her and then brought his hand from her cheek and stared deep into her eyes. it was as if his where a lake of thoughts he then sighed.
"A place to say yes...that i do need" he spoke quietly. he knew she would find out for herself the wonderfull gift he had given her soon. he put his hand on her sholder then looked into her eyes. "Close your eyes and think about your home..." he said gentily like a teacher gently guiding his puiple

Elora nodded and closed her eyes as she drew in a breath, thinking. In a swirl of purple rose petals, Elora and Theophanes dissappeared and reappeared in the living room of her fairly nice apartment. She opened her eyes and looked around, rather surprised. A large smile crossed her lips. "Wow... that's really cool... thank you!" Elora wanted to give him a hug, but she held herself back, not wanting to be too forward.
Elora walked to the kitchen and opened a cabinet. "Would you like some hot chocolate?" she smiled as she began heating some water.

"What is hot chocolate..." the man blinked suddenly when she said it. he looked aound him the place he was in looked fermiluar yet not at all most of the items he did not know what they could be a box with glass infront of it. another box that had many buttons and mesh on two sides he looked up and spotted a strange thing that looked to be a candle holder yet it had a glass tube rather then a candle in its center. he frowned at the thing and continued to walk around.
"...I have not been outside in nearly a million years...I am afraid this place is strange to me..." he spoke quietly almost as if he was speaking to himself. he then turned and watched the girl. his ratted hair falling into his face.

In the light, Elora could finally see the true state of mess he was in. "You.. don't know what any of this is? Watch..." she flicked a switch and the 'candle holder' lit up. "See? No wax to burn or mess... its called electricity..." Elora went to the box with mesh on it. "This is a stereo, you place discs of music in it and it reads them using lasers..." she hit play and a song by Shenta Shinazaki was playing "He's good..."
"You'll really get a kick out of this..." Elora smirked as she walked over to the television set, pushing a button as the screen blinked to life, showing a program about fashion and whatnot. "Its called a television. They film people doing these things, they are like actors on a stage, but they are recorded and sent through here for us to see. No one's actually in there..." Quickly she turned the television off to leave just the music creating noise.
"And this..." she held up a mug full of a thick brown fragran liquid "Is hot chocolate... drink it slowly so it doesn't burn- its a drink of water or milk mixed with chocolate crushed into a powder. It's delicious and warms you up on cold nights. After this, we need to get you cleaned up.. I bet there's a handsome man under that mess somewhere..." Elora smiled lightly at him.

Theophanes accepted the cup his eyes still looking around him unlike most he seemed to take it in strides his oddly bright silver eyes traceing around him the music coming from the thing she had called a stereo seemed to be more of an annoyance then good. he sat down with the drink on one of the few things that seemed fermiluar to him a chair. he then stared deep into the cup and slowly drank some of the liquid it was better then he had expected.
"Thank you for kindly accepting me into your home..." he said slowly as he stared into the glass taking another drink as he continued to listen to the music slowly the words where starting to effect him where the tune itself failed.
"My dark heart no longer feels welcome
My dark eyes no longer see the light
My dark features are fit for the unlit scene.
No longer will I keep by there side. " the singer said slowly. it was as if the tune had been made just for him and no one else.
"...No longer will I keep by there side" he whispered. no he coulden't stay by the dimension jumpers they where now his enemies they where tainted by so many years.

Elora smiled as she turned down the music to where it was soft and in the background, but still able to be heard if one so desired. Her smile fell into a look of curiousity as she continued to stare at the man, though he was no longer looking at her. "You are very much welcomed here Theophanes." she said in her soft sweet voice as she sat down on the couch across from him, curious as to why the music was affecting him so.
"Do you want to... bathe?" Elora wanted to use the word shower, but she figured that he would not know what that meant. "I can show you how to work that bathing here if you like.

"I think it would be nice to be able to be clean" the demi-god frowned softly his long legs where crossed as he sat there still drinking the hot choclate. "you have been sweet to me since you found me...might i ask why you would treat someone who is in he sate of I with such hospitality?" he said his eyes where still not on her but rather one the cup as he watched the steam rise slowly. he seemed to be lost in thoughts but in thruth he was just clearing his head. one of his hands found his hair and he tried to untangle a strand with his fingures.

"A fair question." she said with a smile. Elora thought for a moment, trying to gather the answer herself. "I saw you and I just felt this... I dunno.... a feeling that I should help you. I wasn't scared of you or anything, not ever. You struck me as different from the normal fallens, vampires, and wolves that overrun this town. Then I saw your wings... and I had to know what you were. And then I just felt compelled to bring you here. You looked so lost, and like no one had extended a friendly hand to you ever. I wanted to change that..." Elora said as she looked over the brim of her cup at him. "Immediately I trusted you actually..." she giggled slightly. "I don't normally do that. "

"no one had offered me such kindness in a long time long before you where born...or even this dimension was born...I am the father of a race called the dimension jumpers...they feared my powers and locked me away for a long time...only now have i been able to taste freedom" he said slowly as he finished the sweet liquid in his cut his silver eyes then locked onto hers slowly. "although they are my childern...they have become tainted with there power and i must stop them before they harm others..." he said finaly his eyes showed his resolve.

Elora was a little in awe of the resilience of this man. It must mean something that he had come into her life. It wasn't meaningless, she was sure. There had to be a reason, and Elora that somehow this man would change her life completely. After a long moment she asked a question that she was a little frightened of the answer to, but knew she must ask. "Do you want help with this? Or someone to talk to on your journey?"

" I would not ask anyone to soil there hands for my cause for it is mine and mine alone to bear I created this...and I must end it...that said, company would be very much enjoyed. I have been alone for far to long" his powerful voice seemed to be getting use to being used. the way he spoke was elegant and beautiful just like everything else on his body. he stood up slowly.
"But now I think I must wash away the years of grime that has soiled my visage..." he said looking at her as he put his cup on the coffee table.

Elora nodded and smiled. So she had made her choice, and would join this man. Elora didn't know who these jumpers were, and she didn't know if they were strong- but she was already unfalteringly on Theophanes side. Who would ever lock away such a sweet man? All he needed was to be relieved of his loneliness.
Elora stood up and walked towards another room, a bathroom. She opened the door and against one wall was a large washing basin with the faucet mounted on the wall and a curtain hanging from a bar. It was a perfectly nice shower, clean and large. "Alright. Let me show you how to work this. Its easy..."
She placed her hand on the knob and pushed it up, making a small stream of water show up. "That makes it come on and if you want it warmer keep turning it left or colder turn it right. Just push this down to turn it off, and up to making it stronger. Now I'll leave you alone so that you can.. umm.. undress..." Elora gave him a small wave and a smile as she pulled out a warm fluffy towel for him to use once he was finished. "I'm going to run out and buy you some clothes from the shop down the street. I'll be back soon and put them on the counter by the door. Enjoy!"
After that she closed the door and teleported herself behind the shop, walked in and purchased a few articles for him to wear that were what she guessed his size to be. Then she teleported back and opened the bathroom door only enough to set the bag on the counter, not looking in. Elora closed the door and went to relax as she waited for him.
