What if you lived in a world where everyone you knew could actually be someone else. Human, Demon, or maybe an Angel or perhaps some other creature? Would you ever have this thought cross your mind or maybe it has already several times. Demons have been known to possess a human being and causing them to commit things they would never have the thought of doing. Murdering an innocent child or adult. Robbing a bank and kidnapping a person in the act. You can never actually know who the person is standing beside you nor if you truly know whom your best friend is. There are always wars going on in the world, some of which you may never hear about. In this world there has been a war between the Angels and Demons along with Humans and Demons. As the years go one more and more Demons have invaded into the Human's world and taken over the bodies thousands of Humans, but some whom are strong enough have been able to change and adapt the this world and appear to be a normal Human. Are these Demons invading this world to eliminate the race or perhaps not all have this goal in mind....

Pretty much it takes place in a city somewhere like New York City or close to it. Angels & Demons are starting to come into our world, but the Humans seem to be unaware nor can they see it happening. However some of the Demons are taking advantage of this and possessing Humans and making them commits crimes and murders and so on. Having said not all the Demons are doing this some just came to the city to start new lives and such, but as for the Angels they are after to send all the Demons back to Hell or wherever they came from. As this is happing the Humans start to notice numerous of things happing and start to try to leave the city, but for some reason if they step pasted the welcome sign they die or something bad happens to them. The city is the most visited placed, however no one can leave which terrifies the residences. As more and more Demon invade some stronger ones posses a Human so they can use that body to transform into horrifying creatures. What is the cause of this? How can it be stopped perhaps we shall find out soon?

The storyline is still in draft mode so it may change some as we go on. Anyone is welcome to give ideas and whatever they want to make the RP more fun.~

The sun was starting to set creating a beautiful orange and blue sky that hovered about the now quiet cityscape. Watching the sky a bright colored haired male stood on the side of one of the main streets lost in thought until a child accidently bumped into him forcing him to loose balance, but he quickly recovered it and turned to face boy. "Need to watch it kid." He said softly to the young boy whom only mumbled loosely then gave a quick nod before running of. Aylen released a small sigh as he brought his hand up to make contact with his hair letting it flow through his slender fingers as his eyes kept locked onto the boy until he had vanished down a hillside. "Parents shouldn't allow there kids out in this city." He said aloud knowing only himself was to hear his voice. "People need to pay more attention to their surroundings." He continued before pulling his feet into a walking pace down the sidewalk into the heart of the city. A large neon sign could be seen from miles away that was posted on the side of the largest building. It read: 'Welcome To Eternal, Heart Of All Life, Love, and Joy, Enjoy Your Stay' However when read at a certain angle the words seemed to form a whole new sentence reading, 'Welcome To Hell, Heart of all Lies, Loneliness, and Death, Enjoy Your Stay.'

Zackary walked alongside the road,his hands in the pockets of his thin jacket,looking up at the orange and blue skies that almost looked like mother nature had taken a paintbrush and paint and painted them as a picture of beauty.
Night would soon be apon the city.As he walked he heard not a peep from anyone,just the chirping of crickets all around him.In this city it wasen't common to see people walk around at night,well most people that is,by now most people were going indoors,others making their way towards home,in hope that nothing bad would happen to them,this place wasen't all sunshine and gumdrops afterall. Zackary didn't mind the fact of bad things that could happen,afterall,he was not one of the innocent bystanders.He looked down as he walked,he kicked a small pebble making it skitter about 3 feet infront of him,when he reached it he kicked it again with the tip of his shoe.Before he could kick it a 3rd time however,a boy ran past him,he looked at the boy through the corner of his eye,he guessed the kid was running towards home.Zack looked ahead,and continued to walk ahead as the boy disappeared from view behind him.Nightime,was almost apon us.

The young boy ran down the street, yest suddenly stopped as an unseen force kept him in place. A girl walked from the alleyway, face hidden underneath a hood yet long black hair fell out from underneath it. The hoodie she wore was red and she wore a black shirt and a pair of black skinny pants underneath. A backpack held food and other necessities. one hand was held loosely in front of her as she worked the energies of her Fortudo Inertum.
"What do we have here... a child, perhaps? Or a demon...?" A creepy smile spread along her lips - the only part of her face that was visible in the dusk's light.

Barbie was walking alongside the road, backpack on. It was a military backpack, with the camouflage coloring on them. He wore his combat boots, jeans, military brown dress pants, a white T-shirt, a bomber jacket, and a Air Force cap. He had his right arm out, like a hitch hiker. He wanted to get the hell outta this town. He was just tired of it. Too much for him. That, and he had some enemies inside. He never really saw a truck pass by, but one almost did, slowing down for him, and then speeding up. He just waved, and continued to walk.

A boy ran across the ground ahead of him, but he didn't really notice, or care at that point. Too many young people running about in this town. He looked up. Clouds began forming around the air, a sign of nothing really good. He could tell that it was going to rain soon, but not too soon. Light still could go through. But it was also getting dark. He had to get out, though. Now it was dark, and he couldn't really see.

But what he did see he didn't like. A truck, full of metal pipes, exited the border, and then flipped, exploding. All around he could see dead animals, like it was some sort of barrier. But he didn't know what it was. It just appeared. It wasn't a shield, things could still go through it. But it was a dome like thing, that kept things in, but not out.

Darkness seemed to slowly engulf the city, it seemed that Darkness could also be defined as creatures that are soon going to be crawling all over the place. Danny wwas standing on the edge of a building looking over the edge at the ant like people below and watching them all one by one run into their homes or anything with 4 walls and a roof. Why is it that human's instinctively look for a room to hide in? instead of actually using their brains and find a strategic method to deal with a problem?

"look at them, all of them... they want to go home and try to be at least a little safe from the dangers that will soon be lurking and even though they know they're not safe at all. They still hide" he said to himself, watching and waiting for darkness to fall over the city completely.

(( sorry i had to make it short but i need to go, if i made a mistake pm me and i'll revise the post))

Aylen had made his way into the heart of the small city as the night took hold of the surroundings. The city itself looked to be as dead as cemetery. Nevertheless the neon haired male didn't mind the peace. Having no family of his own the young man had traveled into the city in hopes to start anew, but this city they called Eternal was everything but what he had hoped.

Placing a hand into his coat pocket he drew out a small pack of cigarettes and a small lighter. Opening the pack he withdrew one of the tobacco filled sticks and placed it upon his soft lips letting a tiny portion enter into his mouth. After this he raised the lighter and ran a finger across it making a clicking sound. It produced a small fire which he pulled to the end of the cigarette. Once lightened Aylen slide it them back into his pocket and took two fingers to hold the now smoking stick as he took a draw then another. His sky blue eyes where scanning the buildings and shops that suffocated the streets. Standing at a walkway that allowed pedestrians to cross his eyes kept on scanning. This night was abnormally too quite, unlike most there were always at least a few fires and robberies, however tonight... nothing.

Zackary contined to walk,scuffing the back of his shoes on the tough sidewalk as he walked.The night had taken over and surrounded the city by now with its darkness.There was little light.The streetlights looked like somebody had taken a baseball bat and played baseball with the lightbulb,and its socket instead of the ball meant for the game.The moon was covered by clouds,along with the rest of the sky,which meant no light from the stars above either.Most lights in stores and houses began to flicker then go off with each passing minute.Stupid people,turn off your lights and think a killer or thief will just waltz right by and say 'oh,nobodies home,i guess i'll have to try the next house.' ,yeah,right he thought with sarcasm thick in his thoughts,he sighed the slightest of sighs, everything seemed so calm,so quiet,...so....unnatural..compared to other nights in this city.He expected to see fugitives by now,and to hear the blarring of police sirens...but there was nothing,nothing came,nobody came,all was calm and content,and that,was not a good sign either..

A boy walked out of the same alleyway the girl had emerged from. And a wave of his hand dismissed the girl's forceful grip.
"What do you think you're doing Quinn?" the girl yelled.
"Saving an innocent." the boy who had been called Quinn replied. He walked towards the boy and dusted him off, then tapped his shoulder. "Run along." The boy did so without looking back.

"You're too kind, brother. It'll get you killed."
"Your so called 'swift judgement' could get us killed just the same." he replied.
The girl chuckled. "I suppose you're right." She dismissed her power. "Let's go."
Quinn nodded as they walked off in the direction the boy came from.

But the pipe truck, as one could call it, wasn't the worst thing that happened. The worst was yet to come. And soon, everyone would be able to see it, and most likely feel it. For this thing had come down, and now, people were screwed.

On the road, lights dead, driver unconscious, was a tanker truck, carrying a massive amount of gasoline. Barbie jumped off the side of the road, landing onto the rough ground below, which he was thankful wasn't wet and damp. He looked up, and saw the truck crash, and collapse in onto the cab. Then it flipped forward, landing onto the tank. It ruptured, and the gas began spilling.

And Dale Barbara had enough training to know exactly what the hell was going to happen next. There was a small fire starting in the cab, and he had to get out of there. He scrambled up, and ran. He ran as hard as his legs could carry him.

Danny stood watch, waiting patiently twirling one of his guns on his index finger with a cigarette in his mouth.
"Somebody help!! my son! He took my son!" a lady cried for help, it came from the alley half a yard from Danny's current position.
"Mommy!" the boy yelled as a middle aged man snatched him up and ran down the dirty damp alley. The man was about 6ft tall wearing a beanie and a hoodie. A twisted smile from ear to ear on the evil expression of his face.

Without a second thought Danny sheathed his gun and the cigarette fell from his lips, before it touched the ground Danny was gone. Already chasing after the man who was in humanly fast "Drop the kid sunshine and i'll go easy" Danny said pointing his guns at the man, Danny squinted as he evaluated the man. "What's a demon doing with a kid?" he asked but his question wasn't as important as taking the guy down.
The demon's smile dropped as he sniffed the air and looked at Danny with anger "...Nephi...lim?... Nephilim!?..." the man grunted and dropped the boy, his skin started to bubble so that was a clear enough sign for Danny to get the boy clear. Danny bolted for the man who was yelling in pain ripping out his hair. He dropped the boy but before he hit the floor Danny quickly grabbed him.

Danny got clear of the man who looked like he was ripping his own skin apart "Go! GO Home!" Danny yelled pushing the boy who stumbled back wide eyed at hideous sight of the man. Danny turned to look and saw something he never wanted to see. The man's skull shifted and snapped inside his skin, his arms snapped and cracked into positions that were definitely not natural. The top of the man's scalp opened up to a dirty red lining of blood around the edge of the hole which gradually got bigger.

To the boy it would look like a pile of skin dropping to the floor and that's it but to Danny... It was a demon the size of a building "You're a demon?... HOW THE HELL WERE YOU MADE?!" He asked pointing his guns towards the demon who was now the size of a building, it's ribs opened up to reveal it's insides. The face was twisted in ways that couldn't be explained.

Aylen was making his way down a back alleyway as he watched one of the buildings in front of him start to fall in his direction. "What the hell?" He spat as he jumped up onto it as it hit the ground. Jogging, he made it to the end of the other side and hopped off unharmed. Dusting himself off his eyes scanned for any sign of what could cause an entire building to crashed. As he took a few steps father all he could see was a large hideous creature he knew had to be a demon, but how did it manifest into this? Wonderful was the only thought that ran through his mind as he watched it knock over several more buildings, but it was then Aylen noticed it wasn't just doing that for the fun of it, no it was attacking someone or something.

"Its thanks to these disgusting demons that give us a bad name." He hissed as he rose a hand in front of his face to whisper a few odd sounding words. Once finished ice started to form over his hand and up his arm in the form spikes. "Guess I should get rid of this menace before it kills off the whole city?" He said before jumping up onto of a nearby roof to get better aim. He then swung his hand in a swift motion as the ice shards flew off and started to glow a bight blue. As they made contact with the demon they sunk into it's flesh and ice formed over the body making it harder for the creature to move. The attack had made the demon even more pissed as it now turned from the other stranger to face him. "Demon! How-- how dare you attack me!" The voice echoed throughout the whole city. "I say now don't you want to die fast or slow?" Aylen replied with a smirk.

Zack continued to walk,he needed something to do,he was beginning to feel a slight twang of boredom.He sighed.Moments of silence passed as he walked,but suddenly he heard the sound of something exploding,he wasent sure what it was,or which way it came from.Then he heard the sound of a building collapse,followed by many more.He quickly turned around,seeing as though the sound came from behind.Close by.His eyes looked up at the monster,even with him being the ant from a long distance,this thing was huge.Sweet! some action!,something to do.. he thought as the monster made another building collapse to the ground below,the building only remaining in small pieces.He looked closely,seeing it was a demon....Most people would flee if they saw this,but he wanted to see this up close,to get involved.He looked left and right deciding,he took a left and went through a backway,he didnt know about the rest of the population but he didnt want a building smashing ontop of him as he ran.He looked at the monster as he ran through the darkness of the backways,the darkness of the night.But strangely,the closer he got,the more he saw.He squinted his eyes slightly,he saw two beings near the demon,attacking,and pissing it off of course.He ran through the backway,as fast as his feet could carry him, fast as he could go,his reddish brown bangs blowing in and out of his eyes,a aura of thin shadows floated around him,he was ready to join the action,he was ready.Back to hell with you,you sorry excuse for a demon he thought making it out of the backway,but still keeping in the shadows,best not to be seen quite yet.
He ran a 180º around the creature keeping in the shadows,hopefully it couldnt see him,he created a sharp shaped shadow in the direction of the demon,if this peticular shadow hit a human,it would cut the limp it hit clean off.Looking at the creature out of the corner of brown eyes he thoughtGive me your best shot,you worthless piece of trash.

Kelly was the first of the siblings to pick up the fight going on in the distance. "Ooooh, sounds like something is going on over there!"
Quinn sighed. "Really? You want to fight another of those demons?"
"Of course!" Kelly replied with a grin.
"Fine. But I'm not getting involved this time."
"That's okay, more for me to kill!" she smiled broadly.

The two ran towards the sound, speed enhanced by Quinn's Fortudo Inertum. Once they reached the area where the battle was raging, Kelly grinned. A giant ghostly, yet light-emitting axe appeared in her hand. Quinn sighed again and leaned into a wall, looking at his little sis engaging the demon. He saw two three others closeby, two of which appeared to be demons themselves. Of the third, he was unsure. He narrowed his eyes and decided to keep an eye on them.

Barbie jumped as the gas exploded, lighting up the night sky for a small amount of time. He saw a giant thing the size of a building not too far away get knocked back by the shockwave, and catch fire from the heat. Hell, he almost did. But he went through a window and into a building to survive. He was probably the only one there who had survived the blast from the blast radius. Everything else was fine outside of it, but the ones inside...

And now this thing appeared out of nowhere. What the hell was happening to this town? A lot of bullshit was what was happening. And he couldn't take much of that. Much more, that is. He had seen a lot of ugly things as a Colonel, but this... This was just way out of line.

Dylan shot a few rounds at the demon who swung at him numerous times, jumping over it's arm on one of it's swing causing it to knock a house down "Stop it ya bastard!" Danny yelled running clock wise around still shooting.

Whilst the building was falling he had to jump through it's window, onto the floor of the room which was used as a wall to jump off to get closer to the demon's face as he leaped out of the building before it hit the ground. He readied his scythe and swung at the demon cutting it's face diagonally. "It's gunna take much more to kill you eh? i was hoping to finish it quick but if it means getting rid of the uglist damn thing I've ever seen!... then so be it"

Before Danny could do anything though he spotted a guy with neon blue hair... "Who the?..." he said to himself narrowing his eyes to focus on Aylen who seemed to be ready for an attack. It seemed it wasn't only Aylen that showed up but 3 others? 2 boys and a girl. One of the boys seemed to control shadows and the girl had a ghostly weapon... Whoever they are though he needed the, all to attack at once so he doesn't have to go full power.

Danny held out his Scythe and allowed the air around him to shift. Change enough to allow the rocks and stones around him to hover off the ground. Danny Threw his scythe in the air and above him the grim reaper appeared floating. it grabbed the scythe that grew twice the size it originally was and mimicked Danny's moments as he cocked back for a swing "If you're all gunna attack then do it now!" he yelled to the other three mimicking a swing which the reaper copied making the scythe head straight for the demon.
