Sharpen the Blades (Alias, closed)

[falsetto]

Subject 47 has been in this stupid world for a few days now. This world was nothing like his home world, Metetris. Metetris was caught in a civil war. A war for power over the other, and Subject 47 was a tool for the war. He was once a monster... a killer. But things have changed even since he arrived in Radiant Garden. Maybe this will be a good change. The boy's name is Razor... The Perfect Weapon.

He was strolling along the busy streets, looking around for a good place to eat. Every restaurant he sees is usually jam packed with loud and obnoxious people. He hated people... especially loud and annoying people.

Razor stumbled upon an Italian restaurant, with barely any people. He went inside and smelled the garlicky air. He smelled pasta, tomato sauce, garlic salt, etc. It smelled so fresh and his mouth was watering. He's definitely going to dine here.

He pulled himself a seat at a random table and looked through the menu. This place had so much good food to choose from, but he noticed that all of the dishes were quite expensive. He didn't have much munny, so he'll order the cheapest thing on the menu.

He finally decided on ordering spaghetti with meatballs and garlic salt. It was a pretty simple lunch, but it'll have to do.

While waiting for the waitress to take his order, he noticed a small, clear vase on his table with a rose in it. The rose itself looked so fragile and innocent and so.... peaceful.

He quickly snatched the rose and sprouted a small blade out his finger. He started to cut the stem into tiny little pieces. When he sliced off the stem, he started to cut off the petals. He hated roses. To him it reminded him of something about his dark past. It was about his master. His cruel and evil master.

When he the cut rose into tiny little pieces, he retracted the blade from his finger and brushed all the pieces to the floor. It was a filthy, disgusting flower to him. It also reminded him of blood... the blood of the people he killed.

He felt the presence of a person standing next to his table. The person didn't look like a waiter, but he felt like he wanted to talk to this someone right now. He feels very lonely ever since he got here in Radiant Garden.

"What do you want?" Razor said drearily towards the person. He didn't like company, but he felt like this person will talk to him. However, he won't be nice to him and this person should prepare for Razor's rudeness.

Alias had been watching him cut up the Rose, he had come in for some food, then he noticed the boy's strange behavior. He then held out his hand, in which a blue lily had appeared, he slipped it into the vase and sat down across from the boy. "I don't care much for them either...I don't like red..." He said softly looking at the boy, moving a lock of his short brown hair out of his violet eyes as he smiled kindly at him. "I love lilies, I don't know if they mean anything...but I like them." He said softly and the waitress brought him an menu, he ordered an appetizer of fried cheese and chicken Alfredo, with a bottle of white wine, then dismissed the waitress. "You like fried cheese?" He asked wanting to be sure he didn't need to order another appetizer for his company.

[falsetto]

"Lilies don't mean anything to me," Razor said dryly at the boy sitting across from him. He glared at him, but his face was still dull looking. Who does he think he is? Why is he sitting with me anyways?

The waitress came and the boy sitting at his table ordered some appetizer's and wine. Why is he sitting with Razor? Why would someone want talk to a random stranger.

"I would like Spaghetti with meatballs and garlic... also give me some water or something. Now run along," Razor said rudely to the waitress. The waitress gave Razor a mean look and walked away.

He glared at the boy sitting across from him again. He asked Razor is he liked fried cheese. Fried cheese? Anything fried is bad for you. "No, I don't want any fried cheese... I want to know why you''re sitting with me," Razor said dryly to the boy, yet again.

[jorgewaggoner]

"Because there's no reason for me not to." He said plainly and looked at the boy. "You know, if you keep treating people like that you might regret it someday" HE said softly still smiling at the boy. "Why are you so mad?" He asks softly with a smile. "If something it bothering you, or you need to talk I wouldn't mind listening..." He said as the waitress brought their drinks and the appetizer. The first thing Alias did was knock over Razor's drink spilling it on the waitress. "Don't spit in it this time" He said giving her a glare as she walked away.

[falsetto]

"Well sorry, I've always been like this to others. And if you want to know, I was a weapon for war in my world. I was always tortured and locked into a dark cell every night, and that will definitely change someone... for the worst." He felt a little bit better when he told the boy this. He didn't like keeping his past a secret from others... People might actually understand what he's been through.

"Ok now you tell me about yourself." Razor's expression still didn't change. His eyes were still lifeless and hollow. It's like he doesn't have a soul at all.

The waitress came back with the boy's drinks, but after she set down the drinks on the table, the boy spilled Razor's drink on the girl. "What the hell are you doing, boy?" Razor's voice raised a little and the room became quiet and eyes were staring at
him.

The boy said that the waitress spit in Razor's drink. How did he know that? He must be some kind of psychic or something. Razor glared at the women, when she turned around and left the boys.

"How did you know that she did that?" Razor said curiously at the boy. Maybe he's like Razor. Another person who has powers like him. Not many people on his world had powers, so this was very interesting for Razor.

[jorgewaggoner]

HE smiled at Razor and said "Well, first you should know my name, Alias." He said and looked at the boy "And I was born on a world, that no longer exists, sadly it was destroyed. I am a witch, the last of my entire clan, and I've been traveling these worlds looking for people how...are understanding of others" He said softly looking at Razor and smiled. "AS for how I knew she spit in your drink, I saw her when she filled your glass." He said smiling at him. "But as for you past, I am sorry, I don't know why people are so cruel...But at least there are a few good ones out there" He said smiling at Razor

[falsetto]

He stared at the boy. He was nice.. too nice. "...My name is Razor and I'm not a good person because I killed hundreds and hundreds of people, and I really liked it. But, I'm not like that anymore."

"And yes, humans are masters of destruction. Some people fight for power and money. Everything about us humans is evil... we don't deserve the things that we're given.." This was the first time Razor has ever showed anyone his feelings.

"My world was also destroyed because of those Heartless." They represented the evil in humans. Razor grinned just a little bit about how pitiful humans are.

[jorgewaggoner]

Alias nodded softly "You changed, that's something a lot of human's can't do..." He said softly. "We don't deserve them, but we need to learn how to appreciate them, and stop taking them for granted." He said smiling at the man. "Heartless...I haven't encountered many...I hope I don't have to.." HE said looking at the man. "The light and dark need to coexist and stop fighting...that would bring an end to so much struggle..." HE said softly.

[falsetto]

The waitress came back with their drinks. He held his drink in his hand and looked carefully at it. The boy hadn't said anything so it was probably safe. He took a sip of it and the drink tasted like lemons... very sour lemons.

"Heartless are just pests... they're very easy to kill." He took another sip of his sour drink and stared Alias. He mentioned that he was a witch, so he has powers.

"So you have powers? What can you do?" Razor was very interested in what he can do. He hoped it was something coll and not lame.

[jorgewaggoner]

"Well, spells and such of course. I can heal too, I can...Defy gravity, and I can so some simple transfiguration." He said tapping the lily and turning it into a white sunflower. He looked at Razor and took a sip of his wine "I hope I'm not terribly boring you, I can do a lot, but most of the other stuff is small" He said and looked at Razor. "So what about you?" He asked gently

[falsetto]

Alias told Razor his powers. He showed an example of his powers by turning the blue lily into a white sunflower. Razor still wasn't very impressed. He wanted to see something more... amazing from Alias.

"...Defy gravity right now," Razor said softly, but dully at Alias. He wanted to see at least something spectacular from him.

"I can only grow blades out of my body... I was also trained, so I can run faster than the normal person and I have fast reflexes," Razor replied to Alias's question.

[jorgewaggoner]

Alias nods softly and stands up calmly and steps away from the chair and table then jumps up flipping in mid air and lands on the ceiling and looks at Razor. "How's this?" He asks softly looking at him, he heard the others powers and thought 'Hmm, that's neat'. He then hopped down back into his chair. "That sounds cool, would you show me?" He asks softly

[falsetto]

Razor watched as Alias stood up and jumped up to the ceiling. He was literally standing on the ceiling. Razor was very impressed, but his face didn't show it. His face was still unchanged... it'll probably stay unchanged forever.

The whole restaurant fell into a very awkward silence. All of the employee's and customers were staring at Alias with widened eyes. Everyone was either stunned, amazed, or terrified of Alias.

When Alias dropped down and sat back in his seat, the room was still quiet and everyone's eyes fell on Alias and Razor. Alias was curious to see Razor's ability to grow blades. But before Razor could say anything, the manager of the restaurant had come up to the boys and asked them to leave, because they were causing a scene.

Razor didn't feel like arguing so he got up without saying a word and exited the restaurant. When they were outside, he looked at Alias and told him that he'll show him his power. "However, I don't want to do it in public, because it might scare people. I only scare people with it if they're threatening, insulting, or annoying me."

Next to the restaurant there was an alleyway and Razor led Alias down there. It was a long and dark alleyway, making it perfect for no one to see his power.

When he thought no could possibly see them, he turned around and faced the witch. He clutched his hand in a tight grip and grew a blade out of each fist. He raised both of his hands to show Alias his blades. "I can grow up to eight blades out of my body. I can grow them anywhere on my body, including my teeth. I can them any size or shape."

[jorgewaggoner]

Alias followed his friend and watched him in amazement. He gently reached out and touched the blades. "Amazing..." He said softly and looked at Razor's eyes "It doesn't hurt or anything, does it?" He asks softly looking at the man.

He wondered if he had always been this way, or if those people had changed him, he wondered if that was why he showed no emotion? What had those horrid people done?

[falsetto]

Alias gently touched the blades on Razor's hands. It wasn't that amazing at all really. It just feels like any other blade. "No it doesn't hurt at all, it's... like a part of my skin. It's hard to explain," Razor said slowly to Alias. He retracted the blades back to his skin and stared at Alias.

"You might be wondering if I was born with this power. Yes, I was born with it... I have a metal curse. My parents are metal cursers also and they were slaves for our country. The killed them after I was born and because of my power, they used me as a soldier and assassin. It was a hard life in Metetris, but before everything was take away, I started a rebellion against the two countries."


He wondered what would've happened if he did took down Reida and the darkness never came to the world. Cranon was taking over by Razor's rebellion, but would been in peace if he actually did take over Reida. That question will always remain a mystery.

"Anyways, I know you can do more magical stuff... I would like to see what you can do." Razor usually doesn't feel much emotion, but he felt something weird stirring up in his chest. It felt like... sadness. Razor had felt this feeling before and he absolutely hated it.

He needed to take his mind off of Metetris and his parents. Those are very dark memories indeed and he wanted them to be erased from his mind forever.
