The staff is going to make a serious effort to update the infobox more often, so keep an eye out. Newer updates will always be closer to the top, but probably below this one.

New Stuff Around the Site
Aaaaand it's time for our revival, for the billionth time. Oh, how we are a stubborn board that refuses to die. The Cbox is looking prettier than ever with rules next to them now, and there will be more new stuff to come. Also, because of this, the Cbox rules will no longer be part of the General rules.

Canon Characters
There are plenty of canon characters still up for grabs, so head on over to the character list to see which ones are available. If you find a character that you're interested in playing, leave a post in the Character Request thread to get started. We're looking for new members, and everyone here is super friendly, so take a look around (guests can view almost all the forums here) and leave a comment in the Guestbook if you have any questions or want to introduce yourself.

Welcome to Speed demon's X-men Evo RPG.

Janet only nodded. She didn't know what else to say, so she just went to the door and opened it. With one last small smile, she left through the back door.

Shay smiled as Janet left, giving a soft sigh as she slumped back into a chair, completely intent on keeping her promise of figuring out something to do to help Marina.

She still had the option of the demon...but she was still very reluctant to try it. The last time she and the demon faced, there were near deadly consequences...but she still didn't want to risk Marina never getting her memory back. With a soft sigh, she realized what she had to do.

Now, all she had to do, was convince herself to walk up the stairs and do it.

"First thing's first," she muttered to herself as she wandered into the living room. She wanted to make sure that the house was at least mostly empty if not completely, not wanting someone to accidentally wander in while she was trying to bargain with a very real and literal demon.

It was several minutes later before Marina came down the stairs and seen Shay in the living room. "Is she gone?" She asked, peeking her head into the living room. When she was sure that her mom was gone, she went into the living room with Shay and sat on the couch. "I'm sorry about abandoning you like that, I was nervous and panicked. I didn't really get a shower, I hung out in my room."

She stretched on on the couch and sighed. "So how did it go?" Asked Marina curiously. "She was here a long time, but I didn't want to listen...I was almost scared to. I'm not ready to know about my mom yet. I'm still adjusting to the other things you've told me."

Shay smiled as Marina came back downstairs, motioning for her to join her in the living room.

"Hey, don't worry about it. Everything's cool," she said with a smile. "And I think I actually might know a way to get your memories back...but you're going to have to trust me. A lot. Probably more than you should."

She paused, looking up at her.

"Do you trust me?"

Marina was a bit taken aback by what Shay said. Of course she trusted her, but with what she was saying now, and how important it sounded, she would have been lying if she said she wasn't nervous.
"Of course I trust you," She said after a few moments. "I'm not sure where you're going with this, and it would probably be best if you knew that I'm suddenly a bit nervous..." She said, trailing off. "But I'm also curious- so what's your plan?"

Shay sighed softly, knowing that this was going to take quite a bit out of both of them.

"I...I'm going to take off that ring you're wearing," she said first, cautiously. "Once that happens...you'll probably black out...you won't be able to control yourself. Don't try to fight it, though. Just let me take things from there."

She looked at the ring on Marina's finger for a long moment, knowing that once it was taken off, it'd be a pain in the butt to get back on. But if it meant getting Marina's memory back...and truly making things up to her mom...it'd be worth it.

"Are you ready?" she asked, looking at Marina.

Marina couldn't stop her mouth from dropping. She knew the ring was the only thing keeping the demon from possessing her (I'm assuming she *does* know that, right?). She has absolutely no idea what Shay had planned, and she didn't think she wanted to know. Was she right in allowing Shay to go through with this? Sure, she trusted Shay...But this was probably literally a life or death decision.

Her mouth went dry as she started to reply. "What are...Nevermind. I'll do it...Best not to argue, I have nothing to lose anyway." She said. She put her hand to the ring, rubbing the smooth metal and the black jewel in the middle. She hesitated as she lifted her hand up to Shay to take it off. What was she getting into? Nonetheless, she held out her hand to Shay.

Shay slowly reached forward, placing her index finger on the black stone in the center and her thumb on the metal band. For a moment, she hesitated, sudddenly very unsure with herself. What if something went wrong? She didn't want to risk Marina's safety in this...but she didn't want to risk Marina never getting her memories back either.

"Alright...here goes...everything..."

With one swift motion, mostly to prevent herself from turning back at the last second, she slipped the ring off of Marina's finger and actually slid it onto one of her own; bracing herself for whatever would happen next.

Marina was silent for several moments, unsure of what to expect. She opened her mouth to speak, but closed it, suddenly feeling light headed. She covered her mouth, feeling ready to puke. "Wh-what happ-" She stopped and closed her eyes. Slowly her hand moved from her mouth, and she looked up, opening her eyes. They were once again black.

'Marina' looked Shay in the eyes, mouth twisting into a smirk. "I've been expecting you."

"I'll bet you have," replied Shay cooly, her eyes narrowing slightly as she watched 'Marina'. "So should I then assume that you also know why I've let you take control for the time being?"

"Indeed I do," He said. "And I assume you have some sort of...Magic-" He spat the word venomously- "That will keep me in check once again, so for the time being, you're safe. Otherwise, you'd be dead right now."
Marina/Demon folded her arms and stared Shay up and down. "I also assume you expect me to help your friend?"

"Well, I suppose this saves me the trouble of having to waste time explaining everything to you," remarked Shay with a slightly grim smie, eyeing Marina/Demon cautiously. "And I would like to...discuss...what it would take for you to be willing to return Marina's memories to her."

She remained seated beside Marina/Demon, a look of calm on her face (for the most part, anyway).

"What do you say?"

((Y'know, I really should think of a name for him. Got any good Latin-y demon names?))

The Demon listened as she spoke, arms still folded, and black eyes still staring intently at her. "What do I say?" He asked finally. "I say that's extremely wishful thinking, wouldn't you?" He almost sounded condescending. "I'm surprised you thought this would actually work."

((How about...Erebus? It's Latin for "darkness"))

Shay had been expecting this, and surprisingly didn't look too disappointed.

"Perhaps "discuss" was the wrong word...I was more meaning..."bargain"."

She paused a moment, drawing a deep breath, knowing that she could be risking a hell of a lot with what she was about to say next...but she also knew that it needed to be said.

"If I offered you...anything....in exchange for you returning Marina's memories to her....what would it be?"

((Erebus it is 8D))

Erebus seemed to consider her words for a moment. He hadn't been prepared for a question like that, and of course he was suspicious. "Really, why should I believe you? And what makes you think I can even give her memories back? I said I was expecting you, i said nothing to indicate that I could do what you ask."
