In a cataclysm known as the Nightfall, the worlds were almost completely destroyed by a harrowing surge of darkness.
In the shadows of the ensuing chaos a new group has taken shape. Led by an Aegyl named Kalos, the 11th Hour touts an esoteric knowledge of how to combat the darkness and restore the worlds. They might be the worlds’ best chance at survival; but nobody really knows enough about them to confirm or deny their claims.
On the brink of collapse, the universe holds its breath in anticipation. Of restoration? Of destruction? It is up to individuals like yourself to decide.

Zero gave a yawn as he leaned on a brick wall. Behind him were the stairs that led up to the Accesory Shop, and right across him was the path where a secret passage to the Alley was located. The mercenary looked to his left and right, but saw nothing of interest. He liked to come here when he's got no other gigs.
The man heard rythmical footsteps approach him. He wondered who it could be. Zero ran his hand through his hair nonchalantly. Unless they were a threat to him, he didn't care.
Antique knew. She just -knew- she'd be able to find chile flavored chocolate if she looked hard enough. Come to find out, the nice baker who had given her the carrot cake specialized in odd foods. She carried the chocolate bars next to her side.
She'd have to find that big fellow so she could show him this bizarre food. Hmm. Mikael was also a fire user, so maybe he'd appreciate it. Her eyes squinted. She didn't want to see him just yet though. Perhaps Caxnon or Reiho would appreciate it too. She vaguely wondered if Jadis would like something like this, or Roze or Darkun for that matter. Hmm. She wasn't even sure if she'd like it.
Head lost in the clouds, she passed by a man leaning against a wall, and vaguely lifted up her hand to wave to him to acknowledge he was there--kind of an automatic response thing.

Zero was thinking about food when a girl passed him, carrying several bars of chocolate. He drifted off into thought about food once more, when he realized that the girl had quite an aura of power. Not malignant, but aligned to light. Hm, it would be sensible to make allies.
He turned towards her. "So, what's a girl like you doing all alone?" Zero asked. His tone was nonchalant, and his expression was vague.
"Hmmm?" Antique asked, and paused in her tracks. She brought her eyes to focus on the man on the wall closer. "Oh-oh!" she smiled at him. "Just, you know...passing through..."
Small, yet rough hands gestured to some unknown location. "I found some strange chocolate, and was..."
An eyebrow quirked as she heard a stoumach rumble...and it wasn't hers.
"Would you...uhm..." she said, and reached into the bag she was carrying at her side, and pulled out a bar of the chocolate wrapped in a silver and white foil. "Would you like some?"
Pushing the doors leading to the First District open, Mikael sighed, entering the peaceful area. Obviously, all those negative emotions he felt minutes earlier (most of them directed toward Kousei) were still making a stand, having increased the darkness in his aura. This caused several people to glance at him, but nothing else. After all, who gave them the right to say he was the source of the disturbance? His face looked troubled as he looked around, hoping to catch a glimpse of blue hair.
"Antique... where are you?" Suddenly, the man stopped walking, swallowing hard as he felt that emotion. Guilt. She would probably be blaming herself for what had happened in the coffee shop. Mikael mentally smacked his head with Flame´s End; it had all been his fault. From all those songs out there, his mind had to choose "Fairytale". Just when she was standing beside him. She was no monster... she was no evil creature. She was just a broken girl, thinking about being something she wasn´t.
Ignoring the people around him, Mikael headed toward the Accessory Shop, the main shop in town. That would definately be a good place to start. After several "Excuse me"s and some moments of stress, the man finally stood in front of the stairs leading to the shop. Indeed, he would have walked directly toward the shop´s doors... if he hadn´t noticed that glimpse of electric blue hair. His eyes lightened up for a second as he recognized the female knight´s shape, his aura becoming calmer. "A-Antique?" He whispered, slowly touching her shoulder to let her know he was there.

Zero raised an eyebrow as the girl offered him some chocolate. For a moment, he was tempted, but he resisted the urge and shook his head. "No thanks, I'm good," he replied flatly.
Zero heard more footsteps approach. He looked up and saw a man, with raven hair. The man was slightly shorter than Zero himself, and had a strong fire aura. The man, also had a non-malignant aura. "Hello," Zero spoke nonchalantly.
Antique smiled sweetly at the the man who kind of reminded her of a tinman, and put the chocolate away into a plastic bag. That was fine then--more for herself, really. Maybe she could even find Marcus and share it with him. Perhaps even Roze. "Oh, alright. The offer still stands. There's a nice cafe around the corner if you'd like food."
Antique?
Antique froze, and tensed up when she felt a hand on her shoulder. She jerked her shoulder away, clutching onto the plastic bag. Unfortunately, she wasn't watching what she was doing, and ended up benging her other shoulder into the brick wall.
Wide eyes, she looked at Mikael. And immediately felt ashamed. "Oh..." she said, not really looking at him. "Hello."
Mikael mentally smacked his head once again. Oh great, this wasn't turning out too good. He noticed Antique's reaction all too well; it seemed as she... as she was afraid of him. Had he freaked her out? Possibly... but it wasn't his fault! It had been... the rain! Yes, the rain! The evil and dark rain. It corrupted good and powerful fire manipulators like him. "Heh, who am I tricking? It WAS my fault." And now, he had to set things right.
"Damn... look at what I did!" He said as the girl hit her shoulder with the brick wall. Mikael instinctly raised his palm over it. "Cure," He whispered, a green aura surrounding Antique's shoulder. That would do the trick. "Jadis is looking for you." The pyromaniac wanted to avoid the subject, but it was being somewhat hard for him. Of course, what he said was true, but it wasn't the real reason of him going looking for her.
"Look..." He sighed, trying not to look at her eyes. "Can you forget what happened... the other day? It's not doing good to any of us. I mean... can't we start over?" Mikael then realized that they weren't alone. He had completely ignored the other man. "Oh... sorry. Mikael Darrow." The man said, nodding at Zero.

Zero was observing the other man, an eyebrow raised the whole time. The two seemed to have met before. The other man didn't seem to be someone who was always clumsy; perhaps he was having a bad day.
Zero noticed; that these two were quite good friends. The mecenary blinked as he stayed quiet the entire time, until the other man introduced himself as Mikael Darrow.
"Uh, Zekuro Hanata," Zero said in reply, folding his arms.
Antique was just about to protest when he "cured" her shoulder. It wasn't like she really needed it--a good night's rest was going to do it, anyway. She looked up at him uneasily, clutching onto her bag of chocolate. The knight felt a LITTLE bit cornered by him.
With the fluidity of water, she sidestepped him so the she was near his side instead of in front of Mikael.
Jadis is looking for you.
"Oh! Then...I need to go home," she said. She had pretty much been avoiding people for awhile. It was out of luck that Caxnon and Reiho had found her. She was in a decentish mood after they had confronted her--but three battles today? She wasn't sure this was something she wanted to do.
Can you forget what happened... the other day? It's not doing good to any of us. I mean... can't we start over?
Just as she was taking a couple steps backwards, to return to the Second District, she paused.
"I don't deserve your kindness," she said quietly, in a tone deeper than her usual voice. "Please, stop being so nice to me."
Mikael took a big breath as the girl sidestepped him. It was quite obvious that she was making her uncomfortable; she was avoiding him. The pyro couldn't feel more or less than confused, obviously stunned by her reaction and nervous tone. "Antique," He started, obviously wanting to make peace with her. But then she changed her tone. He was started to feel a bit angry now; she was playing victim in Mikael's eyes. A big no-no in his book.
He tried to swallow the pair of words, but unfortunately failed. "God dammit!" He started, thrusting Flame's End with force into the ground. The sword got stuck in the ground; a few people turned around to look at him. The time bomb had exploded. "Can you stop playing victim for once? Can you stop avoiding your problems. That's obviously not fixing them, but making them worse. I'm obviously one of them... or related to one. It's way too obvious you have a problem with me, and I wanna know what it is. Stop being such a cow-" Mikael shut his eyes, unwillingly drowning the next letters.
The fire user felt weaker... something was obviously wrong. Was it the growing darkness in his heart? The pyro opened his eyes, his sight becoming blurrier as the seconds passed. His heart had been exposed to all of those negative emotions: anger and hate toward Kousei, and disappointment and sadness at the knight. His heart couldn't take it anymore. "Uh..." he moaned, his auditive sense useless due to the sudden fatigue. Mikael held his head between his hands before moaning some more. He experienced a brief moment of Deja Vu... before passing out.
"Is it... over? Was this my... destiny? Plunging... deep into darkness... Am I... fading?

Zero watched the two in total and utter silence. The mercenary felt like a third wheel. Standing here listening to both Antique and Mikael talk... about things that were not his business.
Mikael fainted. Zero's immediate reaction was to catch the man, supporting his weight to keep him from falling. He spoke to Antique: "Do you know why he could have fainted?"
Antique watched Mikael faint, having no idea as to why he would have done so. Her hands went to her leather pouch, but as she patted it, she realized she was out of Potion.
She was thankful that Zero caught him. Uneasily, Antique took several steps backwards.
This was pretty bad.
"I'm...going to look for help..."
She turned, and ran.
((Antique Exit. Sorry. Muse is pretty much shot.))
Mikael suddenly opened his eyes, finding himself in total darkness. He couldn´t see a thing. He tried to talk, but no sound came out. What was going on? Feeling a moment of Deja Vu, Mikael swam through the darkness, wondering where was the way out. Was he dead?
Suddenly, he felt solid floor beneath him. Mikael decided to stand on it before a blinding light came from underneath. He was standing on a crystal floor or some sort, being able to see what was going on underneath.
"Maverick..." His eyes widened as he watched the bone manipulator underneath, not really realizing he could talk now. The place looked like Traverse Town, an alley to be exact. Suddenly, another person walked in: him. Mikael watched in horror as the dopplehanger drew his blade, charging at Maverick before the blinding light returned. The scene had changed into The Caribbean, where a brunette sat on one of the boats, looking at the moon.
"No... Garnet." The raven haired teenager could be seen behind the naive queen, unnoticed by her. He smirked, drawing out his blade once more before aiming at the girl.
A flash.
He couldn´t bear to look anymore. Mikael closed his eyes shut, occasionally opening his eyes between the flashes. He caught glimpses of Rubix, Max and Caxnon before the lights finally stopped appearing. The pyro user opened his eyes, only to see a blue haired female below, playing around with some snowflakes.
"No..."
Not her... anybody but her! Mikael´s dopplehanger leaned on a fountain, one showing two golden dogs. His eyes were bright yellow, and his sanity was lost. The corrupted Mikael charged toward Antique, laughing maniatically while he swinged Flame´s End at her neck...
"NO!!!" Mikael opened his eyes, finding himself on Zero´s arms. He breathed loudly and with some difficulty, scarred for life. He blinked quickly standing up before pulling himself away. "I... I must go... Sorry." And he ran away, leaving the Second District for good.
