"W-what?" Shaun asked in shock.
"Forget them." Firecracker grimaced as Jackpot let him go. "Killers deserve punishment. As far as I'm conerned, I'm the only one who still deserves one." He angrily turned and began to leave the building. In a fit of rage, he ripped part of his X-Strike uniform off-- the part on his chest with the 'X' on it.
"I quit. Find yourself someone else."

"WHAT!?" Eddy bellowed towards Layla, and Ed was holding him back. "YOU CAN'T DO THAT! TAKE IT BACK!!!"
"Don't, Eddy!"
Skywise flinched at the sentence those had recieved. He had to admit, it was gracious of her to let Eddward go; looking upon his pitiful form, he was suffering enough as it was already.
If Double D had heard the sentence, he gave no outward sign; his wide eyes stared off blankly, and his friends were wondering if he'd ever be the same again.

"And then there were two." Shaun muttered quietly as he slumped to the ground weakly. "Damn it! Just... just DAMN IT! Everything in this dimension is screwed up!"
Jeff and Adam ran into the hallway that everyone was gathered in. Jeff gasped in shock at the dead bodies lying on the ground. "Oh my..." he knelt down and picked up the cross that Firecracker had taken off.
"Is everyone okay?" Adam, for once in his life, was meek.

"This is why those who deserve punishment should be punished. Now Firecracker has left in anger due to his problems concerning death. All of you will pay dearly for your crimes... 'Pleasent dreams.'" With that, Layla dissapeared.
"That bitch!" Shinichi yelled.
"You deserve it!" Masahiro protested. "But Felix... taking on both his pain and Edward's... and neither of them even deserve it."
"Ahhhh, but thou shalt not murder... and we did," Tir said, sighing.
Leon Kennedy and Haku ran to the front. "We heard screaming. What happened?"
"The leader is dead, we had a civil war, and you two are cursed," Masahiro explained.
"FOR WHAT?!" both of them yelled.
"For killing. Now you have to see your worst nightmares until you learn never to kill again," Masahiro said.
"Impossible!" the two of them said.
"I'm a government agent and I have to kill if it's part of the assignment."
"I'm a shinobi, a trained killer. You cannot tell me to abandon what I have been taught."

"...I would look into different careers," Fleetfoot noted heavily.
"D-Double D? ...Felix?" Ed approached them cautiously, heavily concerned. "A...are you okay?"
"....i.....i....." Double D barely managed to choke out.
"...take him upstairs," Flecther instructed quietly. "...he needs rest. And a lot of it."
(so what the hell are we supposed to do now? XD God, Felix, this is so depressing XD)

Felix shrugged off any help offered to him. "Get Edward to bed. I'm going to go find Leon and free Trevor's body. He's my brother, so it's my responsibility." With that, Felix turned and began to walk off.
"Something tells me he blames himself for all that's happened here," Masahiro muttered to himself.
Maybe if I could've kept my temper... Perhaps I wouldn't have gotten any of them cursed... I should take all of the blame. None of them should have to suffer for me, Felix thought as he sought out Leon's energy.

"F... Fe...!" Double D whimpered as Felix drew away from him and left, reaching out to him needingly as the others hauled him to his feet.
"Come on, Double D..." Raz spoke delicately to him. "...up and at 'em."

"He'll be back, Edd... Sometimes... Men like Felix need to go and do things alone in order to feel like they've won the right to be around those they love again," Masahiro said. Then he sighed. I know... I'm like that too... he thought. Most likely Raz and Michiko picked up that thought.

They did... but neither of them brought it to attention.
"...the... the right to...?" Double D whimpered softly.
"...come on, Double D..." His freinds (Ed, Eddy, and Raz) led him upstairs.

"... Fletcher... These people are part of a bigger group, are they not?" Masahiro asked as he explored an isignia pinned to one of the men's shirt. "... ... ... This group is huge. There are going to be more problems up ahead, and if Layla and Firecracker have their ways, we're going to be severely limited on dealing with them."
Terra, meanwhile, had ran back upstairs. He wanted to escape the conversation and pretend nothing had happened. Everything was supposed to get better. Cho was free now. Trevor may have been dead, but he was in a better place too. So why wasn't he happier? Trevor wondered... why couldn't he be happy?

(You mean Terra wondered) Fletcher nodded in agreement. "I don't see where those two have the right do tell us what to do!" Matilde protested. "Did they even know what the hell was goin' on!? They way they preach things, we'd be better off DEAD right now, 'cause that's what these psychos wanted!" (Okay, confessional time. I try not to complain too much, and I liked the delicious twist of making Double D take out Dederick, but I will admit, Felix... I can understand people being upset, like Firecracker, but isn't a curse from a random character, um... a little too much? Really, this is war, and you can't make an omellette without breaking a few eggs. That's why I let Trevor go. I'm just saying... little unrealistic, and it's really bugging me. )

(Little issue though... Layla's curse is fake. She's not even a true witch yet. But she's hoping she'll scare them into becoming better. And your characters may be wise, but my characters are gonna fall for it and end up staying up all night... Especially Felix, after what happened at the Library. That being said, she was powerful enough to keep Raz and Michiko out of her head. She's not a witch, but a mind-guarder. She's also mental.)
I was never really good at realism. I just let my mind conduct things and then work them into what is best.)
"Some people cannot handle evil deeds, no matter what the intentions, being committed. It is sad, but true, that people would rather die then kill... and they will try to force that lay down and die belief on others in the thoughts that it will bring salvation," Masahiro said.
"If God didn't expect us to shed blood, he wouldn't have created guns," Shinichi muttered.

(ohhhhhhhhhh, see, I didn't know that. XD Yeah, okay, that makes sense. And trust me, I'll have Double D stew in his guilt for a bit. ^^)
Fletcher nodded in agreement, sheathing his revolver back in its holster. "Indeed... even so, we need to plan a course of action."

Jeff started making his way back to his apartment with a heavy sigh. He stopped when his foot hit a body-- he could tell from the chi that it was barely alive, but he could also tell that there was something slowly killing the person. Jeff looked down and gasped in horror.
Oliver White was lying face-up on the ground. His eyes, bloodshot as they were screamed in agony. This directly contradicted the giant, almost painful-looking smile that had stretched onto Oliver's face.

"Oliver's going to die, so we won't have to worry about him at least," Masahiro said.
"That's only if no one saves his sorry ass," Shinichi said.
