And almost immediately upon their arrival had excused himself to bed, moving to one of the closed off suites they had been offered he settled himself down on the bed, a heavy sigh parting his lips.  "What is going on..." He murmured simply, staring down at his hands before at last collapsing down onto the bed.It seemed like ages before he woke, his eyes fluttering open at the sound of crashing waves, an odd noise considering the capitol was quite landlocked.  It took his eyes a moment to adjust, for the air was thick with steam, the superheated water leaving the area terribly humid, though, as he looked about, that didn't seem to make much sense.None of it did. Rather than a bed he found himself on an island, perhaps three hundred feet across. The ground was dry and riddled with cracks, the look of a badlands, the air covered in the aforementioned steam. In front of him was what he assumed to be a wide, turbulant ocean, waves crashing up on the edge of the island, though the steam concealed anything beyond a few hundred feet from the bank. It was as he turned that the steams source became evident, the river split in an almost perfect line, filtering down into a corridor that transected the middle of the island but for a small bridge. Into one side of this channel flowed the turbulant waters, into the other, liquid magma dripped, catching on the ocean water, superheating it, but never seeming to cool and harden, rather, dissapearing to allow for more of the sea of lava behind it to join with the ocean.He stood dumbstruck for long moments, calling out in confusion and worry, his voice carrying but to no reply. Finally, with no option left to go, Kyo began to walk for the small bridge. It was after only a few steps that he felt the sheath bumping at his hip, perfectly balanced, painted a gorgeous black, much like the one he used to contain his own sword, though this one seemed more sinister.Plodding in his sandles across the bridge, he was amazed at the lack of heat, even as he passed through the wall of steam, one foot moving slowly ahead to be sure he did not fall, he emerged, already quite obvious to the island's only other inhabitant."Ah, its been a long time..." The voice was a hideous echo, gravelly and distorted, corrupted just as the island itself seemed to be. It belonged to a face he knew well enough, one that grinned back at him from a prison of chains, the man's arms bound behind his head, chains extending up to dissapear into the sky, legs tight together, bent so that he was standing on just the forward tips of his feet, a painful position even though the face seemed to grin so much. He knew this man, the cloths mimicing his own, darker in places, and more streamlined, tending more towards practicality in combat than style, his teeth gleeming white behind that wide grin, sharper than he remembered. And those eyes, those same piercing emerald eyes he saw every day in the mirror staring back at him from this... copy, this doppleganger, twinkling with delight as he cried out the last word, insane laughter trailing after it. "KYO!"[sblock=ooc]In case you missed it, I'm gonna be away till the 8th, feel free to try and rp. Thought I'd leave you with an interesting little cliffhanger. I don't suggest going to look for kyo, Just enjoy yourself for the next bit *laugh* See you guys soon.  Hope you liked my rant, more will be explained when I return =)[/sblock]</blockquote>
