(Gotta' go, be on later)

As Gattsu and Karn begin to follow Josephine, Gattsu hears the whispers in his head again, that same horrible whisper.
Gattsu grabs his head in agony and drops to his knees, "AAARRRRGHHH!! IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN KARN, HE'S IN MY HEAD"
Gattsu falls over unconcious. Karn lifts him over his shoulder, "We should move on, my lady."

you do know we have untouched oil in alaska in which if we were to cut off from other major countries, the oil would last us for i think what was said, 100 years.

Bush should have just said, "Look everyone, were going to Iraq to bomb the shit out of Saddam and civilians so we can take us some oil. Oh, and all the profit goes to me..."

1). was korea a threat
2) is north korea a threat
3) If the answer is no to either of the top 2 questions, then what ever happend to "we shouldnt be in iraq because there's no threat"?

North Korea is a threat because we have been crapping on them since the end of the Clinton administration. They also have nuclear weapons, and they have TOLD EVERYONE THEY DO!
Also, Iraq wasn't a threat to us, they never waged war on us, and they were coopertive with all demands to let weapons instectors into the country constantly, and let them search anywhere they wanted, but alas no WMDs... I wonder why that is??

ah, you're just saying that because you're liberal.

I'm not a liberal, I'm neutral. I have just seen what Bush has done over the years, and see that he is a horrible commander and chief of this country.

Who says there has to be a point to being alive? You think because some book says that you play some all important role in the grand script of existance makes it so?
There has to be a point to life. That is the thoughts of human beings, we are self- aware individuals and that is why we search for meaning to this life. You don't see animals and insects running around waiting for some bullshit prophecy to be fullfilled do you? Why? Because we have a higher intellect then they do.
Our conciousness constantly searches for meaning, something other then "Eat, shit, sleep". Then there is some book that exists that gives meaning to life, "God is there, he is going to bring you to everlasting paradise if your a good little boy, or send you to hellfire and brimstone if your a naughty boy after life is over".

Well it just smells alittle too much like bullshit to me. You see the reality is we wach have to find something to live for, life isn't meaningless because there is no God, it just means that you have to find something out there that you live for. A job, a lover, friends, family, whatever.
I believe that the meaning of life is to "Find something to live for". It just seems that simple.

Another point: Back before Jesus, while Jesus was supposidly here, and some times after these "miracles" occurred. Why don't these "miracles" happen anymore? Why? BECAUSE THEY NEVER HAPPENED IN THE FIRST PLACE!!
Did we miss "miracle time"? Damn! Because I always wanted to build a boat the size of Texas and cram every species into it, float down to the Burmuda triangle where I could raise Atlantis, sip whine with the mermaids, and throw fireballs at the moon!

Bush cheated this election just like he did in 2000, the guy is a fucking snake and he always has been. Everything he touches goes to shit (I.e. All the companies he was the head of and they all went out of buisness, of course his daddy's money saved him while thousands lost their jobs.)
Guess what now he is in charge of the biggest company in the US... THE WHOLE COUNTRY!!
Oh, look! He's doing the same thing he did with his other companies, Jobs are at an all time low. We are at war for absolutely no reason except oil money to fill Bush and other investor's bank accounts, and we aren't paying one damn bit of attention to the people who have REAL Weapons of mass destruction (North Korea, who have stated this fact on live TV, and have said the weapons can reach the west coast!).
But no people still believe that Bush is a great president and overall great human being.... You people are fucking morons...

Addition: I am not a nice person when it comes to some dick head that kills people to get a fucking hard-on, I don't care about that person's feelings or their fucking rights. They should of thought about the consequences of their actions before they acted, not sit there in the court room and cry and apologize to the victim's family.
I say eat your heart out "Ol' Sparky"!

I think that the Death Penalty should be used. I also think that they should speed up the time people have to wait on death row.
If the person murders another person then they got whats coming to them, I got no sympathy for 'em. I also believe rapists should be put to death as well. Fuckers...

Yes you are hot Angel.

(Don't worry about it, something is going to happen that will change this.)

If the Electorial college didn't exist than this country would actually be run by the people like it should have been 200 years ago. I say get rid of it.

With it in place the greedy politicians have been ruling the country as they see fit.

Your saying that the proof is in a BOOK WRITTEN BY MAN! It is a story book nothing more. Someone wrote it way back then and it uses realistic places as its backdrops nothing more. It is just like any author that writes books today, its just that the bible was written A LONG TIME AGO.
When you die and nothing happens, I won't say I told you so... BECAUSE YOU'LL BE DEAD. You won't go to Heaven because there is no Heaven. It is a man made vision, a paradise that we created to make us not fear our inevitable end. Everybody dies, and there is nothing you can do to stop that. There is no god that will whisk you away to an eternity in paradise, or a to a molten inferno after death.
If there is, I will stand corrected, but until I die. I STILL WON'T BELIEVE IT TILL I SEE IT!

(Addition: He is not in control of any dimentions at all, he understands that the laws are different in each. And the ability to travel between dimentions does not make him a god.)

(Don't worry I already have an idea that is going to change that. I'm going to add it into the story. That bio is only up to when he arrived back on earth. He isn't going to be that powerful for long. And he is not a god. Once the battle between him and Raze heats up I'm going to have something happen to him that will even him out with everyone else.)

-Name: Karn Hi'tref
-Age: Unknown
-Aura: Neutral
-Occupation: Oni Ninja
-Appearance: 7'3'', Upper torso muscular human, long white hair, orange eyes, long red scar across chest. Lower body made completly of necro-alloy. Feet are like large eagle talons, large tail with a movable claw at the end. Tail can extend long distances at will.
-Equipment: Scimitar of Babylon: Omega (Bringer of the end).
-Skills: Extremely strong, tail attacks at lightning speeds, cannot be fully killed unless he is in the netherrealm.(The physical manifestation of his body can be destroyed anywhere, but he will return unless he is killed in the netherrealm). Can mask the fact that he is immortal.
-Powers: Can sense immortals from extremely long distances(even over time and space).

-Backround: Karn and (Alternate) Abner decapitated the dark god Trilexx. They both inherited the power to sense immortals anywhere in the cosmos(space/time). This is how Karn and Gattsu were able to find the (present) Josephine in this realm.

(I thought that I would make the "new" Gattsu and Karn bios. Since they have been through ALOT since they were last in the RP).

Name: Gattsu Edo
-Age: 6546
-Aura: Good
-Occupation: Samurai, former leader of the Dauthi ninja clan.
-Appearance: 6', 173 lbs., muscular(not Arnold Swarzenegger buff, but big enough to hold his own). Long black hair tied off at the bottom. A red scar across his left cheek (A wound from Trilexx's blade).
-Equipment: The Mirror Blade katana, samurai robes, (Alternate) Josephine's ring.
-Skills: Master of thousands of different martial arts from several alternate universes, a master with a katana and several other types of melee weapons, can use some futuristic weapons.
-Powers: Can create copies of himself, can move at improbable speeds, can traverse time and dimensions, can mask the fact that he is immortal.

Backround- The war with the netherrealm took alot out of Gattsu's heart and soul. He blamed himself for Josephine's death and will die to honor the promise he made to her.

I don't know what your employers told you but I wouldn't be any kind of leverage if they weren't willing to hurt me. *She holds her sword out with one hand and unleashes the razor whip with the other.* Either way, they are not the final word in wether or not you get me.

Gattsu positioned himself into a ready position, it was a position nobody in this realm had seen before. His blade was held out in front of him, but there were the small differences that showed. The blade had been turned slightly to the right, and his feet were positioned with the sword for maximum manuverability.
"The lady has spoken, and it seems your choice is made." Gattsu stared into Raze's eyes, seemingly ready for anything...

Raze: Why is she so important to you?

Gattsu stops, and shows the first sign of emotion since his appearance...A mix of anger, sadness, and regret. Raze could read it on his face, could even feel it, the first time he had sensed anything from one of the two warriors.
"I... I made a promise..." Gattsu said. Strangly enough it seemed that Raze's question had hit Gattsu like a brick to the face.

(Sorry guys, gotta make my day a bit short. I will try to make it back for some more later)

The only way people ever beat me was when one guy put me in a headlock and I couldnt get out (we werent allowed to hit, only grappel). We even taped it sometimes. Those were the days.

I did backyard wrestling too when I was in school, we hit, we used chairs, and tables but we didnt go as far as some of those other guys. Barbed wire bats, bottles, etc.

just like how it was reported that, at Marilyn Manson gigs, he dropped a cage of puppies into the audience and ordered them to all be killed.

Well we all know those storyies are BS, all you gotta' do is realize, that everyone in the crowd that killed a puppy would probably be fined and given jail time for cruelty to animals. Marilyn Manson would have been sent to prison.
The media makes up shit so that they can have more exiting storys, its like the friggin' tabloids. Half the shit they say on the news is completly overblown.

Gattsu did not draw his sword, he saw what was taking place in front of him, he felt Raze changing somehow.
"It was not the past versions of you that I was speaking of, it was their futures. The future is already written , Raze. We have not seen the future of this realm, but we have seen the future of other realms like this one." Gattsu said taking a step closer.
"I do not know what you are going to do, but I do know that fate travels on a linear path, I do not understand why, but I do know that a man CAN change his fate. I know this because Karn and I have changed our fate." Gattsu explained.
" I do not underestimate your powers, I have seen what other versions of you can do. But, you cannot have her!" Gattsu's sword was out of his sheath so fast it took a moment for Raze to realize it had been drawn.
"So, whats it gonna' be?" Karn said.

Gattsu took a step forward, "You are walking a path that has no reverance. The choices you have made have only brought you pain. Do you truly wish to continue down this path?" Gattsu took a step forward.

(Alright, I'll continue writing tommorrow, gotta' go for now. This is starting to pick up).

Raze: Close friend? What?
*Raze confused looks at him awkwardly, but not relaxing in any way, just in case.*
Raze: Explain.

"My companion and myself have been traveling space and time for over 5 thousand earth years. We left this plane of existance out of desperation. We have traveled countless parallel dimentions in our travels and have met many versions of you, Josephine, myself, and even Karn." Gattsu explains.
"Almost every version of you acted the same way, mannerisims, voice rythims. The fighting styles were different, but overall you were quite the same person you are here. You were also prone to these strange "episodes", so believe it or not this is not the first time Karn and myself has seen this." Gattsu goes on.
"In the dimension where you became our ally we helped you to control this "curse" as I call it. You became extremely powerful after learning to control yourself. That is why I said that there are other ways of handling yourself." Gattsu concluded.

"Your ego will be your end my friend. Don't let it take control of you. You are like so many other versions of you. There are differences, yes. But, there is that curse that seems to infect you all." Gattsu replied.
"I do agree that you are one of the more powerful versions of you, but the version that was the most powerful was the one that conquered his demons. Believe it or not, he was a good friend." Gattsu revealed.
"In fact, you are the one that seems to enjoy this strange connection. I do not fully understand what this strange curse upon you is, but take heed. It will only bring you closer to oblivion." Gattsu said truthfully.

Karn lets out a laugh, " Your reflexes are too slow, boy. He was behind you before the battle even started. What you saw was called an echo. It means the bastard was moving so fast that his image was printed into reality... In laymen's terms, he was on a different wavelength of reality then you and reality was having a hard time keeping up with him... Yea' It took me a while to understand what the hell I just said." Karn grins at the injured warrior.

Raze: I said, mind games only piss me off. I have been training all my life, your bullshit fancy talk is getting the best of my nerves, not my fear.
*Then the sharp pain slides his back and ends at his tailbone. Raze had slide his Tachi along Gattsu's spine, not touching it by any means, but sliding it right down its path. Raze then spins right and stops with his blade at Gattsu's neck.*
Raze: I don't care how many tricks or facades you pull, there could be fifty of you, but don't under-estimate me. For, this time, your 'soul reading' has failed you.

Once Raze pushes his blade into Gattsu, he realizes that there is no resistance from bones, organs, etc.
Blood shoots from Razes chest as Gattsu's Mirror blade katana comes out of his wound. Raze feels the hilt slam into his spine.
"As I said, you are not ready." Gattsu pulls the blade out of Raze's body and lets him drop to the ground. The samurai steps over to Karn and Josephine and sheaths his sword.
"You don't know who your dealing with. Now leave with your life, and use the time you have to train your mind, not just your reflexes." Gattsu stands 10 feet from Raze, his face emotionless.

Raze: How will you conquer me with your mind games if you can't even focus on me? You can't focus on what you can't sense. None of your senses are as fast as me, my friend.
*Raze suddenly dissappears before them all, his speed practically stopping time, seconds like minutes. Raze moves towards Gattsu punches him in the neck, grabs him by the shaulders, throws him into the wall and speeds back to where he started all before Gattsu could finish his blink. Raze looks at Josephine with a smile.*
Raze Ya, i was just toying with you before, my lady.

The Gattsu that Raze had had hit and thrown disappears as it is airborn. Raze feels the sharp point of a blade in his back, not enough to draw blood but enough for Raze to realize what is there.
"As I said my friend you are too overconfidant, your skills are too fixated on this realm and its rules. Without more training you can't hope to come out of this with your head still attached."

*Raze drops his hands to his side, he knows all too well he is the fastest immortal to ever exist, why get all tense when he can relax before the stalling man's first strike.*

Raze is suddenly knocked back 10 feet, he is able to stablize himself quickly and realizes that Gattsu hasen't moved from his position.

Raze: Hmm.. well, respect that she doesn't deserve perhaps. I think you guys are misunderstanding me and my position. It was obvious she needed help, of course, but three to one... and you guys feel this is just? Fear not, i never bow down to anyone, a great man taught me that many years ago. I feel you two have come more of a cripple to my dear Josephine here and will only get in the way, trust me, she would have done better on her own.
*Raze lifts his hand gun in his left and yields his Tachi with his right. For hundreds of years he had yet to feel the burning sensation inside him, just like he was young and good sense danger in an instant. He had never been so anxious in his life. Finally, a challenge.*
Raze: Poker... you feel teaming up is an advantage, but the odds are with the better hand.
The more the merrier. Twice the fun.
Raze: So, how shall we do this?

Gattsu take a step forward, " No, You'll fight me", He makes no movement for his weapon, but keeps his eyes lock on Raze's eyes.
There is not a hint of emotion in Gattsu's reactions, "You overestimate your abilities, and like so many others, that trait will be your downfall. I can see into your soul, you cannot win this. Leave now, I will only give you one chance."

Gattsu hasen't moved, he makes no effort to reach for his sword. He has his stare locked on Raze.
After the centuries of battling the forces of the Netherrealm, Gattsu is still a man on the outside, but his soul has become that of a Dragon. The great war strengthened his mind, body, and soul. He is not the warrior he once was.
A long time a ago, Gattsu realized that battle was as serious as the universe itself, and from that day forth he fought as if it were his last.
